Remove Characters from String in Python
To remove a specific character in a string, you can use slicing operation. For example, if we have a string “str” and want to delete the character at index “index”, we can use the following method:
str = "Hello, World!"
index = 5
new_str = str[:index] + str[index+1:]
print(new_str)
In the example above, we first split the string ‘str’ into two parts – the part before index and the part after index. Then we concatenate these two parts to get a new string ‘new_str’. The final output is ‘Hello World!’, where the character at index 5 has been successfully deleted.
