chop
chop(string)
Remove the last character from a string.
Examples
-
Remove the last character from a string:
julia> str = "Hello, World!"; julia> chop(str) "Hello, World"
This example removes the last character from the string
str
. -
Handle an empty string:
julia> empty_str = ""; julia> chop(empty_str) ""
It correctly handles the case where the string is empty. The result is still an empty string.
- Remove the last character from a string variable:
julia> name = "Julia"; julia> chop(name) "Juli"
It removes the last character from the string variable
name
and returns the modified string.
Common mistake example:
julia> number = 12345;
julia> chop(number)
ERROR: MethodError: no method matching chop(::Int64)
In this example, the chop
function is being called with an argument of type Int64
, which is incorrect. The chop
function is specifically for removing the last character from a string, so it should only be used with string arguments.
