Remove last character from string in Python?

There are several ways to remove last character from string in Python take a look below at each:

Slicing

You can simply slice the string from start to the last before element.

name = 'qawithexperts'
name = name[:-1]
print(name) // qawithexpert

In the above code, we are slicing string using Negative index, we can also do slicing using positive Index, here is an example of doing it

string = "qawithexperts" 
l = len(string)
Remove_last = string[:l-1]
print(Remove_last)

Using rstrip

There is string method rstrip() in Python, which removes the characters from the right side of the string that is given to it, here is an example

string = "qawithexperts" 
newString = string.rstrip(string[-1])
print(newString) // qawithexpert

Using Loop

Well this will require you to add more lines of code, but it is just another way, which you can try.

string = "qawithexperts" 
#length of the string
l = len(string)

#empty string
Final_string = ""

#using loop
#add the string character by character
for i in range(0,l-1):
   Final_string = Final_string + string[i]

print(Final_string)

In above code, we are first measruing string length the using loop, adding characters one by one in new string(Final_string) from main string until l-1, i.e, just before character.
