Math With Strings

When working with strings the + operator performs a "concatenation," which is a fancy word that means "joining two strings." Generally speaking, it's better to use string interpolation with f-strings over + concatenation.

first_name = "Lane "
last_name = "Wagner"
full_name = first_name + last_name
print(full_name)
# prints "Lane Wagner"

full_name now holds the value "Lane Wagner".

Notice the extra space at the end of "Lane " in the first_name variable. That extra space is there to separate the words in the final result: "Lane Wagner".
