Your code worked fine for me. Is it possible your "test" variable wasn't true?

message = "Bah."

message = message + " Humbug!"
print(message)
Bah. Humbug!

so this is in a cli based program designed to print status messages to

the terminal on a linux box.



pseudo code:





message = "Bah."



if test:

message = message + " Humbug!"



print(message)



end pseudo code





I'm sure this is not the way we are supposed to augment strings like this.



maybe there is string.append() method or something I should be using instead?



In my case the optional extra parts are always at the end of the

current value of the string.





Thanks for clearing this up for me.
