How to use python variable as a part of <a href = in html?

This time I need to know how can I use python variable to create a href link in html which is part of a python script.

For instance, 

LinkX = "file://///server/folderX

where folderX changes all the time and then to use this LinkX as a part of 

<a href = "folderX">LinkX</a>.

Something like this. Thank you.

If you are generating the html as text, you can use string formatting:

link = '<a href="{0}">{1}</a>'.format(destination, description)

Something like this?

>>> linkUrl = 'file://///server/folderX'
>>> linkText = '<a href="{}">{}</a>'.format(linkUrl, 'Folder X')
>>> linkText
'<a href="file://///server/folderX">Folder X</a>'
