python print string from variable name in string

Question

I want to display a text. and in the text there is a variable name, and the name of the variable is already in the previous definition.

example code

my_dict = {}
my_dict['name']='Candra'

#I want to be like this
print('my name is {name}')

#not like this
print('my name is '+ my_dict['name'])

Answer 1

One way of doing this :

print "my name is {}".format(my_dict['name'])

Output : my name is Sandra

Other ways : print "my name is %s" % my_dict['name']

Answer 2

you could do this easily with python 3

my_dict = {}
my_dict['name']='Candra'
name = my_dict['name']


a = f"He said his name is {name}."
print(a) 

output would be

He said his name is Candra.
