Last update on December 21 2024 09:20:07 (UTC/GMT +8 hours)

Strip specific characters from string.

Write a Python program to strip a set of characters from a string.

Sample Solution:

Python Code:

# Define a function 'strip_chars' that takes a string 'str' and a string 'chars' as input.
# The function returns a new string containing characters from 'str' that are not in 'chars'.
def strip_chars(str, chars):
    return "".join(c for c in str if c not in chars)

# Print an empty line for spacing.
print()

# Print the original string.
print("Original String: ")
print("The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.")

# Print a message indicating the characters to be stripped from the string.
print("After stripping a, e, i, o, u")

# Call the 'strip_chars' function with the input string and the characters to strip,
# and then print the result.
print(strip_chars("The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.", "aeiou"))

# Print an empty line for spacing.
print() 

Sample Output:

Original String:                                                                                              
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.                                                                  
After stripping a,e,i,o,u
