In this example, you will learn to get a substring of a string.
To understand this example, you should have the knowledge of the following Python programming topics:
Using String slicing
my_string = "I love python." # prints "love" print(my_string[2:6]) # prints "love python." print(my_string[2:]) # prints "I love python" print(my_string[:-1])
Output
love love python. I love python
String slicing works similar to list slicing. The working of above code can be understood in the following points.
[2:6]
You need to specify the starting index and the ending index of the substring. In this case,lovestarts at index 2 and ends at index 6.[2:]
All the text from index 2 to the end are selected.[:-1]
All the text before the last index is selected.
