# Strings library

## `import strings`
Strings is a object class in python so there is so much that this library can do. This is just the stuff that we might have used in this course

### `startswith()`
Searches for the beginning of string - looks for a specific instance where this occurs at the beginning of the string object

### `endswith()`
Searches for the end of string - looks for a specific instance where this occurs at the end of the string object

### `isdigit()`
Looks at the strings object and sees whether characters are digits

### string.ascii_letters()
Looks for ascii letters in the string object

### string.ascii_lowercase()
Converts the string to lower case characters

### string.ascii_uppercase()
Converts the string to upper case characters
