Only a little ease of use is lost with the following in Python, clarity

You could try:
newstr = s + ' ' + `n` + ' ' + `r`
if you think thats better.
But `` is different to str() for some types.
Personally I prefer the formatting approach.

I just didn't want to give an answer that only works in python 2.4,

Jeff,
I get the impression that many pythonistas don't like string
interpolation. I've never seen a clear definition of why. Anyway, it's
easy enough to add with the Itpl [1] module:
>>> import Itpl, sys
>>> sys.stdout = Itpl.filter()
>>> s, n, r = 0, 0, 0
>>> print "$s $n $r"
0 0 0
>>> x = Itpl.
To all those who talked about hating the symbology in Perl and the

Perl: variable interpolation in strings:
