Removing the last character from a string in Python
Learn, how to remove the last character from a string in Python.
We can remove the last character of a string by using the slice notation [ ]
with :-1
as an argument.
Here is an example, that removes the last character u
from the given string.
str = "How are you"
print(str[:-1])
Output:
"How are yo"
Similarly, we can also use the rstrip()
method by passing the last character as an argument to it.
str = "How are you"
print(str.rstrip("u")); # "How are yo"
Another example of rstrip()
method:
name = "justin"
print(name.rstrip("n")); # "justi"
