2.31. Removing Specific CharactersThe delete method removes characters from a string if they appear in the list of characters passed as a parameter: s1 = "To be, or not to be" s2 = s1.delete("b") # "To e, or not to e" s3 = "Veni, vidi, vici!" s4 = s3.delete(",!") # "Veni vidi vici" This parameter follows the same rules as the one for the count method (see section 2.28, "Counting Characters in Strings" earlier in this chapter); that is, it understands the hyphen and the caret. There is also a delete! method. |
