Python: Display formatted text as output
Python String: Exercise-26 with Solution
Write a Python program to display formatted text (width=50) as output.
Sample Solution:-
Python Code:
import textwrap
sample_text = '''
Python is a widely used high-level, general-purpose, interpreted,
dynamic programming language. Its design philosophy emphasizes
code readability, and its syntax allows programmers to express
concepts in fewer lines of code than possible in languages such
as C++ or Java.
'''
print()
print(textwrap.fill(sample_text, width=50))
print()
Sample Output:
Python is a widely used high-level, general- purpose, interpreted, dynamic programming language. Its design philosophy emphasizes code readability, and its syntax allows programmers to express concepts in fewer lines of code than possible in languages such as C++ or Java.

Python: Tips of the Day
Check if a given key already exists in a dictionary:
In is the intended way to test for the existence of a key in a dict.
d = {"key1": 10, "key2": 23} if "key1" in d: print("this will execute") if "nonexistent key" in d: print("this will not")
If you wanted a default, you can always use dict.get():
d = dict() for i in range(100): key = i % 10 d[key] = d.get(key, 0) + 1
and if you wanted to always ensure a default value for any key you can either use dict.setdefault() repeatedly or defaultdict from the collections module, like so:
from collections import defaultdict d = defaultdict(int) for i in range(100): d[i % 10] += 1
but in general, the in keyword is the best way to do it.
