#  The corresponding Java program Additions.java demonstrates
#  how the + operator automatically converts numerical values
#  to strings and joins the resulting strings to other strings.

#  In Python, the + operator also works as a concatenation 
#  operator that can concatenate strings, tuples, and lists.
#  The Python + operator does not, however, automatically
#  convert numerical values to strings. The standard
#  built-in function str() can be used to make these conversions.


some_integer  =  1234

print "xxxx" + str( some_integer ) + "zzzz"

print "xxxx" + str( some_integer ) + str( some_integer ) + "zzzz"

print "xxxx" + str( some_integer + some_integer ) + "zzzz"

print str( some_integer + some_integer ) + "xxxx" + "zzzz"

print str( some_integer ) + ( str( some_integer ) + "xxxx" ) + "zzzz"

print "xxxx" + "zzzz" + str( some_integer ) + str( some_integer + 1 )

print "xxxx" + "zzzz" + str( some_integer ) + str( some_integer ) + str( 1 )
