Python - Concat two raw strings with an user name

Question

I have a raw string like this,

MasterFile_Name = r'C:\Users\ABC\X12345\DEF\File - Test.xlsx'

I want to pass the value of X12345 through a variable.To do that I am doing something like this

MyID = X12345

MasterFile_Name = r'C:\Users\ABC\' + MyID + '\DEF\File - Test.xlsx'

and

MasterFile_Name = r'C:\Users\ABC\' + MyID + r'\DEF\File - Test.xlsx'

They both are not working for me.

Kindly help me with this.

MasterFile_Name = r'C:\Users\ABC\{}\DEF\File - Test.xlsx'.format(MyID) — user3053452, Apr 04 '19 at 11:32
you can also use f-strings if you have python 3.7+ like so: `MasterFile_Name = rf'C:\Users\ABC\{MyID}\DEF\File - Test.xlsx'` — user3053452, Apr 04 '19 at 11:37

If the intention is to just concatenate it.

MyID = 'X12345'    
MasterFile_Name = r'C:\Users\ABC\{}\DEF\File - Test.xlsx'.format(MyID)    
print(MasterFile_Name)
