strings
A string can be declared using either single' or double" quotations.
### A string with double quotation

### A string with single quotation
my_string2 = 'Hello, Rishi'
print(my_string1)
print(my_string2)
Using single' and double" quotations

### A string with mixed quotations
string_mixed = "Hello, Rishi: 'You are amazing'!"
print(string_mixed)

print(string_mixed2)

string_mixed3 = "Hello, Rishi: \"You are amazing\"!"
print(string_mixed3)
string_mixed4 = 'Hello, Rishi: \'You are amazing\'!'
print(string_mixed4)

Before adding a string to a number, we need to convert it first using str().
### Adding a string to a number!!! Wait?
greet = "Hello"
number_as_string = str(2020)
float_as_string = str(0.12345)
print(greet + number_as_string);
print(greet + ' ' + number_as_string);
