How do I remove a substring from the end of a string in Python? | 1,038,824 | <p>I have the following code:</p>
<pre><code>url = 'abcdc.com'
print(url.strip('.com'))
</code></pre>
<p>I expected: <code>abcdc</code></p>
<p>I got: <code>abcd</code></p>
<p>Now I do </p>
<pre><code>url.rsplit('.com', 1)
</code></pre>
<p>Is there a better way?</p>
| 151 | 2009-06-24T14:44:01Z | 25,126,098 | <p>Since it seems like nobody has pointed this on out yet.</p>
<pre><code>url = "www.test.example.com"
new_url = url[:url.rfind("."):]
</code></pre>
<p>This should be more efficient than the methods using split(), as no new list object is created, and this solution works for strings with several dots.</p>
