How to compare two strings in python?

We can compare two strings in python by comparison operators. There are many comparison operators like ‘==’, ‘!=’, ‘>’, ‘<‘, etc.

String comparison in python takes place character by character.

• == – It checks whether two strings are equal.
• != – It checks whether two strings are not equal.
• > – It checks whether string on the left is greater than the right.
• < – It checks whether the string on the right is greater than the left.

e.g.,

n="python"
a="pythonpoint"
print(n==a)

output - False

We can do case-sensitive comparisons of strings also. To do case-sensitive comparison python offer special functions isupper() and islower().

s="PYTHON"
print(s.isupper())
print(s.islower())
