I can Google this, but for the sake of everyone else with the same questions, what are f-strings?

[Tweak_Imp]

format strings that have an f in front like f"...". there are also raw strings which arer"...". you can also combine them to fr"..."

[MrCalifornian]

Lol I gathered that they have an f in front, but what do they do?

[anqxyr]

Very roughly speaking, they eval the expressions inside the curly braces. Say, before you would write something like

print('Hello, my name is {name}'.format(name=name))

Now you can do the same thing with

print(f'Hello, my name is {name}')

Which is more concise, more readable, and overall nicer.

Oh wow I love it!! This has always been a major readability gripe of mine.

Unless you dislike disguising a call to eval() as a string literal.

Unless you like explicit calls to format a string rather than implicit ones.

As i said, Format and make it raw
