Python program for removing n-th character from a string

In this example, we will remove the nth character from a string −

Example

def removechar(str1, n):
	x = str1[ : n]
	y = str1[n + 1: ]
	return x + y

# Driver Code
if __name__ == '__main__':
	str1 = input("Enter a String =")
	n = int(input("Enter the n-th index ="))

print("The new string =
")
print(removechar(str1, n))

Output

Enter a String= Jacob
Enter the n-th index = 2
The new string =
Jaob

Python program for removing n-th character from a string without user input

In this example, we will remove the nth character from a string without user input −

Example

def removechar(myStr, n):
	x = myStr[ : n]
	y = myStr[n + 1: ]
	return x + y
	
# Driver Code
if __name__ == '__main__':
	myStr = "Hello"
	print("String = ",myStr)
	
	# nth index
	# character to be removed at this index
	n = 2
	
	print("The new string = ",removechar(myStr, n))

Output

String = Hello
The new string = Helo

Python program for removing n-th character from a string using for loop

In this example, we will remove the nth character from a string using for loop −

Example

# Create a String
myStr = "How are you?"

# Display the initial string
print("String = ",myStr)

# nth index
# The character is to be removed at this index
n = 9

newStr = ''

# for loop iteration
for char in range(0, len(myStr)):

	if(char != n):
		# append
		newStr += myStr[char]
		
# Display the updated string
print("Updated string = ",newStr)

Output

String = How are you?
Updated string = How are yu?
