How to attach a string to an integer in Python 3

Question

I've got a two letter word that I'd like to attach to a double digit number. The word is an integer and the number is a string. Say the name of the number is "number" and the name of the word is "word". How would you make it print both of them together without spaces. When I try it right now it still has a space between them regardless of what I try. Thanks !

'{}{}'.format(word, number)

For example,

In [19]: word='XY'

In [20]: number=123

In [21]: print('{}{}'.format(word, number))
XY123

The print function has a sep parameter that controls spacing between items:

print(number, word, sep="")

If you need a string, rather than printing, than unutbu's answer with string formatting is better, but this may get you to your desired results with fewer steps.

In python 3 the preferred way to construct strings is by using format

To print out a word and a number joined together you would use:

print("{}{}".format(word, number))
