String Interpolation

String interpolation is a programming technique that allows developers to embed expressions, variables, or function calls directly within string literals, which are then evaluated and replaced with their values at runtime. It simplifies string concatenation by providing a more readable and concise syntax compared to traditional methods like using the plus operator or format functions. This feature is commonly supported in many modern programming languages to enhance code clarity and reduce errors in string manipulation.

Also known as: String templating, Template literals, String formatting, Interpolated strings, f-strings
🧊Why learn String Interpolation?

Developers should learn string interpolation to write cleaner and more maintainable code when constructing dynamic strings, such as generating user messages, logging output, or building SQL queries. It is particularly useful in scenarios like templating (e.g., in web development with HTML or in configuration files), where readability and ease of modification are critical. By reducing boilerplate code and minimizing syntax errors from manual concatenation, it improves productivity and code quality in applications that involve frequent string operations.
