Text after variable print command

At the end of my program, I want the following text to be displayed on the user's screen: "Thanks [StudentName] for participating in the quiz." StudentName is the variable with the name of the student (a string).

Here is the single line of code which I attempted to use to achieve this: print("Thanks", StudentName). I'm missing the part "for participating in the quiz" after the student name. What command do I have to input to get this part printed?

print("Thanks", StudentName, "for participating in the quiz.")

or

# will only work if studetName is a string 
# if it's an int for a really weird reason it will throw a TypeError

print("Thanks " + studentName + " for participating in the quiz." )

or

print("Thanks {} for participating in the quiz.".format(StudentName))

or

print "Thanks %s for participating in the quiz." % studentName #python2

There are several ways to format and print strings in python but the new str.format() is the most flexible and in my opinion is easier to read

You want str.format():

print("Thanks {} for participating in the quiz.".format(StudentName))
