In Python3, ascii_lowercase is a pre-initialized string used as string constant. In Python, string ascii_lowercase will give the lowercase letters ‘abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz’.
Syntax : string.ascii_lowercase
Parameters : Doesn’t take any parameter, since it’s not a function.
Returns : Return all lowercase letters.
Note : Make sure to import string library function inorder to use ascii_lowercase.
Code #1 :
# import string library function import string # Storing the value in variable result result = string.ascii_lowercase # Printing the value print(result) |
Output :
abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
Code #2 : Given code checks if the string input has only lower ASCII characters.
# importing string library function import string # Function checks if input string # has lower only ascii letters or not def check(value): for letter in value: # If anything other than lower ascii # letter is present, then return # False, else return True if letter not in string.ascii_lowercase: return False return True # Driver Code input1 = "GeeksForGeeks"print(input1, "--> ", check(input1)) input2 = "Lazyroar for Lazyroar"print(input2, "--> ", check(input2)) input3 = "neveropen"print(input3, "--> ", check(input3)) |
Output:
GeeksForGeeks --> False Lazyroar for Lazyroar --> False neveropen --> True
Applications :
The string constant ascii_lowercase can be used in many practical applications. Let’s see a code explaining how to use ascii_lowercase to generate strong random passwords of given size.
# Importing random to generate # random string sequence import random # Importing string library function import string def rand_pass(size): # Takes random choices from # ascii_letters and digits generate_pass = ''.join([random.choice( string.ascii_lowercase + string.digits) for n in range(size)]) return generate_pass # Driver Code password = rand_pass(10) print(password) |
Output:
