Horizontal concatenation of two multiline strings

Question

I currently try to concatenate two multiline string horizontally. For example, having two strings str_a and str_b

str_a = """This is row \nAnd this is row\nThis is the final row""" str_b = """A\nB"""

With the print return

This is row And this is row This is the final row

and

A B

The print return of the resulting string after the horizontal concatenation should look like

This is row A And this is row B This is the final row

Use this:

import itertools for a, b in itertools.zip_longest(str_a.split('\n'), str_b.split('\n')): print(a, b if b else '')

Output:

This is row A And this is row B This is the final row
