String Concatenation
When we use the plus symbol between strings, we join the strings together. This is called concatenation. For example:
print ('Hello ' + 'world')
In this example, we have used the print function, and we have passed it two strings. The ‘+’ between the strings joins these strings together into one string.
Concatenation is a bit like the links in a chain. Many links are joined together to make a full chain.
Notice that this does not add a space between the two strings? In the example above, I’ve added a space after ‘Hello’. What would happen if we didn’t include the space?
print ('Hello' + 'World')

When we join strings, Python does exactly as we ask. That means it won’t add spaces between words. If we want spaces, we need to add them ourselves.
