Python String Interpolation
... String interpolation is a process substituting values of variables into placeholders in a string. For instance, if you have a template for saying hello to a person like "Hello {Name of person}, nice to meet you!", you would like to replace the placeholder for name of person with an actual name.

Python f-strings - PEP 498 - Literal String Interpolation | DigitalOcean
August 3, 2022 - Python f-strings or formatted strings are the new way to format strings. This feature was introduced in Python 3.6 under PEP-498. It’s also called literal string interpolation.

Design: String Interpolation vs printf() with Format Strings (which is better/cleaner?)
I think interpolation is far better. It also saves you from the type safety issues that often plague printf implementations in various ways. Note that if you want to support high quality localisation libraries, you may still need to support printf-like functions, although they don't need to be quite as ergonomic, and can support printing only strings.

Why is W1203 "logging-fstring-interpolation" problematic?
If you use f-strings, or .format() function, or even % operator then the interpolation is always performed. So you are paying for the string interpolation whether the message is sent to the log or not. If you use "%s", x then the interpolation will only take place if the log message is emitted.

F-String In Python - A Modern Way To Perform String Interpolation
f-Strings are alright. I like the option. I find they disappear into the text to easily, and are harder to identify than format(). Personally, I prefer format() for most quick uses, and the built-in template string system when things are more complex. More on reddit.com

A Guide to Modern Python String Formatting Tools – Real Python
February 1, 2025 - In modern Python, you have f-strings and the .format() method to approach the tasks of interpolating and formatting strings. These tools help you embed variables and expressions directly into strings, control text alignment, and use custom format specifiers to modify how values appear.

July 12, 2025 - Let's consider an example to understand it better, suppose you want to change the value of the string every time you print the string like you want to print "hello <name> welcome to geeks for geeks" where the <name> is the placeholder for the name of the user. Instead of creating a new string every time, string interpolation in Python can help you to change the placeholder with the name of the user dynamically.
