Day 67: Python Program to Replace Every Blank Space with Hyphen in a String

 

input_string = input("Enter a string: ")
output_string = input_string.replace(" ", "-")
print("Modified string:", output_string)

#source code --> clcoding.com

Code Explanation:

input_string = input("Enter a string: ")

input():

Prompts the user to enter a string.

The prompt text "Enter a string: " is displayed to the user in the console.

The user's input is returned as a string.

input_string:

The string entered by the user is stored in the variable input_string.

output_string = input_string.replace(" ", "-")

input_string.replace(" ", "-"):

The replace() method is called on the string stored in input_string.

It replaces every occurrence of a blank space (" ") in the string with a hyphen ("-").

The method returns a new string with the replacements. It does not modify the original string because strings in Python are immutable.

output_string:

The modified string (where all spaces are replaced with hyphens) is stored in the variable output_string.

print("Modified string:", output_string)

print():

Outputs the modified string to the console.

The string "Modified string:" serves as a label.

output_string:

The value of output_string (the modified string) is displayed next to the label.
