How to create a Unicode string in Python?

by

In Python 3, the old Unicode type has replaced by “str” type, and the string is treated as Unicode by default. We can make a string in Unicode by using art.title.encode(“utf-8”) function.

To create a Unicode string in Python, you can simply prefix the string literal with ‘u’ or ‘U’. Here’s an example:

python
unicode_string = u"This is a Unicode string"

Alternatively, you can directly include Unicode characters in the string by using their Unicode code points, preceded by a backslash and ‘u’. Here’s an example:

python
unicode_string = u"\u00A9 Copyright symbol"

Both of these methods will create a Unicode string in Python.
