[SOLVED] Can you please explain this code?

Question

I was doing a challenge, and I got this question.
what is the output of this code?
a = solo
print(a.zfill(6))
the output was 00solo
why?

Answer 1

https://www.programiz.com/JUMP_LINK__&&__python__&&__JUMP_LINK-programming/methods/string/zfill

The zfill() method returns a copy of the string with '0' characters padded to the left.

The word 'solo' is 4 letters long
zfill(6) fills it with zeroes from the left till it is 6 long.
Hence Zero fill -> zfill

Answer 2

str.zfill(n) adds 0 to left until total length is n
str.rjust(n, char) adds char (default is a space) to left until total length is n
str.ljust(n, char) is like rjust but adds char to right
str.center(n, char) adds char both sides (first right then left side) until total length is n

Answer 3

Louis thanks man 👍

Answer 4

thanks guys
one more question.
is there a way to put zeros to the right of the string?

Answer 5

the zfill() method pads the word with zeros on the left so zfill(6) sets the space to take up to 6 so if a was empty and you printed it it would show

000000
but since a =solo
it displayed:
00solo

It’s probably a scammer. No offense to Muna if he/she isn’t, but I have had the unpleasant experience of having to deal with 3 scammers here on SL.
Btw, this is 🐺Michael🐺 from my dad’s account (I didn’t get banned or anything, Milly blocked me so I had to use this one to apologize to her)

Answer 14

Since the registration is open to anyone not surprise that scammer or two would show up. The cruddy part is that their attempting such on a beginners/learners site, so not sure exactly what they would gain $$ wise. Its unfortunate but through experience, there's been a pattern with the ones with bad english and no different than those "specialist" call-center that litter the web with cheesy alert() boxes.

Don't see too many if hardly any of them on other IT forums, however, as their mostly populated with other devs who would immediately ban the scammer/bot accounts.

Answer 15

a.zfill(6)
zfill means zero fill so a is equal to solo; solo is 4 words.then add 2 zero.
