String Characters
A string is a list of characters
senders_phone_number = "+4407973123456";
if (senders_phone_number[0] == '+')Negative indices
Negative indices count backward from the end of the string, so string_name[-1] is the last character of the string, etc
Altering characters in a string
Strings are immutable in Python, so you can’t do this:
my_string[0] = 'a' #<<This won't work!you have to do this instead:
my_string = "a" + my_string[1:]Work through each character in a string
for next_character in my_string:
print(next_character)
