I have just started reading learn python the hard way and I have a question.
for example the code will be
name = input("Name?")
print "your name is %s" % name
why do we use d or what ever, does it make a difference?
The
din%dstands for decimal.%dis for formatting numbers.%sis for formatting strings. (thus, the example you gave actually doesn’t work) Yes, it matters. You need to tell Python where to place the thing after the%operator into the string.
