Interpolating Variables Inside Strings
import string# from www . java 2 s. c om
values = [5, 3, 'blue', 'red']
s = string.Template("Variable v = $v")
for x in values:
print s.substitute(v=x)
The code above generates the following result.
If the replacement field is part of a word, the name must be enclosed in braces.
from string import Template
# from w w w . j a v a 2 s. com
s = Template("It's ${x}tastic!")
print s.substitute(x='slurm')
In order to insert a dollar sign, use $$.
from string import Template
# from w w w . j a v a 2s .co m
s = Template("Make $$ selling $x!")
print s.substitute(x='slurm')
We can supply the value-name pairs in a dictionary.
from string import Template
# w ww .jav a2 s. c om
s = Template('A $thing must never $action.')
d = {
'thing': 'gentleman',
'action': 'show his socks'
}
print s.substitute(d)

<body>
<h1>%(title)s</h1>
<paragraph>%(text)s</paragraph>
</body>'''
data = {'title': 'My Home Page', 'text': 'Welcome to my home page!'}
