fruit="ramadana"
print "fruit heeft als type", type(fruit)
y=len(fruit)
print y
z=fruit[:3]
print z
These lines put in a module and executed print (using Python 2.7):
fruit heeft als type <type 'str'>
8
ram
Strange that it doesn't work for you.
I can only advice you to check the file again or run the code from the
Python shell.
HTH,
