Is there any difference in %d and %s below. I get the same result:
my_name = 'Zed A. Shaw'
my_age = 35 # not a lie
my_height = 74 # inches
print "Let's talk about %s." % my_name
print "He's %d inches tall." % my_height
print "He's %s inches tall." % my_height
Let's talk about Zed A. Shaw.
He's 74 inches tall.
He's 74 inches tall.
%d interpolates a decimal string repesentation of a numeric value.
%s interpolates the default "str" representation of an arbitrary value.
The variable my_height is an int, and for an int both these things are the
same.
Try:
my_height = 7.3
and see what you get.
