Python | Converting the characters list into a string

To convert a given list of characters into a string, there are two approaches,

  1. Using the loop – traverse of the list i.e. extracts characters from the list and add characters to the string.
  2. Using join() function – a list of characters can be converted into a string by joining the characters of the list in the string.

Method 1:

list1 = ['H', 'e', 'l', 'l', 'o']

# printing characters list and its type
print("list1: ", list1)
print("type(list1): ", type(list1))
print()

# converting character list to the string
str1 = ""
for i in list1:
  str1 += i;

# print the string and its type
print("str1: ", str1)
print("type(str1): ", type(str1))

Output

list1:  ['H', 'e', 'l', 'l', 'o']
type(list1):  <class 'list'>

str1:  Hello
type(str1):  <class 'str'>

Method 2:

list1 = ['H', 'e', 'l', 'l', 'o']

# printing characters list and its type
print("list1: ", list1)
print("type(list1): ", type(list1))
print()

# converting character list to the string
str1 = ""
str1 = str1.join(list1)

# print the string and its type
print("str1: ", str1)
print("type(str1): ", type(str1))

Output

list1:  ['H', 'e', 'l', 'l', 'o']
type(list1):  <class 'list'>

str1:  Hello
type(str1):  <class 'str'>
