如何删除 Python 中特定字符之前的所有字符？

Question

I'd like to remove all characters before a designated character or set of characters (for example):

intro = "<>I'm Tom."

Now I'd like to remove the <> before I'm (or more specifically, I ). Any suggestions?

Answer 1

Use re.sub . Just match all the chars upto I then replace the matched chars with I .

re.sub(r'^.*?I', 'I', stri)

Answer 2

str.find could find character index of certain string's first appearance :

intro[intro.find('I'):]

Answer 3

Since index(char) gets you the first index of the character, you can simply do string[index(char):] .

For example, in this case index("I") = 2 , and intro[2:] = "I'm Tom."

Answer 4

If you know the character position of where to start deleting, you can use slice notation:

intro = intro[2:]

Instead of knowing where to start, if you know the characters to remove then you could use the lstrip() function:

intro = intro.lstrip("<>")

Answer 5

str = "<>I'm Tom."
temp = str.split("I",1)
temp[0]=temp[0].replace("<>","")
str = "I".join(temp)

Answer 6

I looped through the string and passed the index.

intro_list = []

intro = "<>I'm Tom."
for i in range(len(intro)):
    if intro[i] == '<' or intro[i] == '>':
        pass
    else:
        intro_list.append(intro[i])

intro = ''.join(intro_list)
print(intro)

Answer 7

>>> intro = "<>I'm Tom." #Just split the string at the special symbol >>> intro.split("<>") Output = ['', "I'm Tom."] >>> new = intro.split("<>") >>> new[1] "I'm Tom."

Answer 8

import re

date_div = "Blah blah\nblah, Updated: Aug. 23, 2012 Blah blah Updated: Feb. 13, 2019"

up_to_word = ":"
rx_to_first = r'^.*?{}'.format(re.escape(up_to_word))
rx_to_last = r'^.*{}'.format(re.escape(up_to_word))

# (Dot.) In the default mode, this matches any character except a newline. 
# If the DOTALL flag has been specified, this matches any character including a newline.

print("Remove all up to the first occurrence of the word including it:")
print(re.sub(rx_to_first, '', date_div, flags=re.DOTALL).strip())

print("Remove all up to the last occurrence of the word including it:")
print(re.sub(rx_to_last, '', date_div, flags=re.DOTALL).strip())

Answer 10

This solution works if the character is not in the string too, but uses if statements which can be slow.

if 'I' in intro:
  print('I' + intro.split('I')[1])
else:
  print(intro)

Answer 11

You can use itertools.dropwhile to all the characters before seeing a character to stop at. Then, you can use ''.join() to turn the resulting iterable back into a string:

from itertools import dropwhile
''.join(dropwhile(lambda x: x not in stop, intro))

This outputs:

I'm Tom.

Answer 12

Based on the @AvinashRaj answer, you can use re.sub to substituate a substring by a string or a character thanks to regex:

missing import re

output_str = re.sub(r'^.*?I', 'I', input_str)

Answer 13

没有正则表达式

intro.split('<>',1)[1]

Answer 14

import re
intro = "<>I'm Tom."
re.sub(r'<>I', 'I', intro)
