var.isprintable()

Parameters

Return Value

This method returns true if all characters in the string are printable. Otherwise, it returns false.

Example

The following example demonstrates the use of the isprintable() method.

var = "Hello Python"
var1 = var.isprintable()
print ("Raw string:", var)
print ("Is it printable?:", var1)

var = "HellotPython"
var2 = var.isprintable()
print ("Raw string:", var)
print ("Is it printable?:", var2)

var = "HellobPython"
var3 = var.isidentifier()
print ("Raw string:", var)
print ("Is it printable?:", var3)

When you run this program, it will produce the following output −

Original string: Hello Python
Is it printable?: True
Original string: Hello Python
Is it printable?: False
Original string: HellPython
Is it printable?: False

Here, “t” is the escape character for tab, and “b” is the escape character for backspace.
