python字元串方法replace()簡介

今天寫replace方法的時候的代碼如下：

1 message = "I really like dogs"
2 message.replace('dog','cat')
3 print(message)

本以為運行結果會是：I really like cats

出乎意料結果卻是原字元串

查了一下才得知python中string是不可變的

>>> help(str.replace)
Help on method_descriptor:
replace(...)
    S.replace(old, new[, count]) -> string
    
    Return a copy of string S with all occurrences of substring
    old replaced by new.  If the optional argument count is
    given, only the first count occurrences are replaced.
>>> s='hello python,hello world,hello c++,hello java!'
>>> s.replace('hello','Hello')#將字元串s中的所有'hello'子串，替換成'Hello',返回替換後的字元串，原字元串s不變
'Hello python,Hello world,Hello c++,Hello java!'
>>> s
'hello python,hello world,hello c++,hello java!'
>>> s.replace('hello','Hello',2)#將字元串s中的前2個'hello'子串，替換成'Hello'
'Hello python,Hello world,hello c++,hello java!'
>>> s
'hello python,hello world,hello c++,hello java!'
>>> s.replace('wahaha','haha')#要替換的'wahaha'子串不存在，直接返回原字元串
'hello python,hello world,hello c++,hello java!'
