Question

In python how do you write a program that asks the user to input a string with at least three characters and displays a new word with the word “car” after the first and third characters in the string.

Answer 1

You can use slicing arr[p:q] would give you the slice from index p up to q - 1.

user_inp = input("Input a string of at least three chars.")
if len(user_inp) >= 3:
    print(user_inp[0] + "car" + user_inp[1:3] + "char" + user_inp[3:])
