Interdisciplinary Learning Lab Activity

Create a Python program to find the HCF and LCM of two numbers using function.

STRING

A sequence of characters which is enclosed or surrounded by single (‘ ’), double (“ ”), or tipple (“‘ ’”)
quotes is known as a string. The sequence may include a letter, number, special characters or a
backslash. Python treats single quotes as double quotes.
Example of a string:

str = 'This is Shweta\'s pen.'
print (str)
Output:
This is Shweta's pen.

Creating a Single-line String

Single-line Strings can be created by enclosing characters inside single or double quotes. It is like
assigning a value to a variable.

Multiline String

A multiline string in Python begins and ends with either three single quotes or three double quotes. Any
quotes, tabs, or newlines in between the “triple quotes” are considered part of the string.
