How do you cut the first two characters in a Python string?

You can use slicing to extract the first two characters of a string. The specific code is as follows:

string = "Hello, World!"
substring = string[:2]
print(substring)

The output is:

In the code above, string[:2] represents taking the first two characters of the string “string”. The syntax for slicing operation is [start:end], where start indicates the starting position (default is 0) and end indicates the ending position (default is the length of the string).
