strip() in python by R4R Team

- strip() is a python in-build function which are used to remove the same content from the string at both end.
- It is combine form of lstrip() and rstrip().
- lstrip() remove left content
- rstrip() remove right content
- so strip() remove the same content at both side of string.

Syntax-

str.strip("str")

Example
string is s="---hello---"
s.strip("-") will give "hello"


program-

s="111111111mytext1111111"
print(s.strip("1"))

s="22222mytext222"
print(s.strip("2"))

s="111111111mytext2222"
print(s.strip("1"))
print(s.strip("2"))
print((s.strip("1")).strip("2"))

output-

mytext
mytext
mytext2222
111111111mytext
mytext

-In this program, we apply strip() function which remove the same content at both side
- But in last string in above program have different content in both the end and we want to remove both content from both the side so that we use (s.strip("1")).strip("2").
