Create a new string made of the first, middle, and last characters of each input string using python programming

Hint:

• String index starts with index 0. The first character is present at index 0, and the last character is at the index string’s length -1
• Use built-in function len(s1) to get the string length.
• Next, get the middle index number by dividing string length by 2.

Solution:

• Get the first character from both strings, concatenate them, and store them in variable x
• Get the middle character from both strings, concatenate them, and store them in variable y
• Get the last character from both strings, concatenate them, and store them in variable x
• In the end, join x, y, and z and save it in the result variable
• print the result

def mix_string(s1, s2):
    # get first character from both string
    first_char = s1[0] + s2[0]

    # get middle character from both string
    middle_char = s1[int(len(s1) / 2):int(len(s1) / 2) + 1] + s2[int(len(s2) / 2):int(len(s2) / 2) + 1]

    # get last character from both string
    last_char = s1[len(s1) - 1] + s2[len(s2) - 1]

    # add all
    res = first_char + middle_char + last_char
    print("Mix String is ", res)

s1 = "America"
s2 = "Japan"
mix_string(s1, s2)
