What is string.endswith() in Python?
The endswith() method in Python checks whether a certain string A ends with a string B.
Syntax
stringA.endswith(stringB, start, end)
Parameters
-
stringB: The string to be checked for at the end ofstringA. -
start: The index from which the search should start.startis an optional argument. By default, the value is0. -
end: The index up to which the search should be done.endis an exclusive and optional argument. By default, the value is the length ofstringA.
Example
string_A = "Life ends with death"string_B = "death"print ( string_A.endswith(string_B) ) # endswith() call
In the code above, we check if the Life ends with death string ends with the death string. In this case, it is True because the string ends with death.
Example with index parameters
string_A = "Love JavaScript"string_B = "Java"print( string_A.endswith(string_B, 7, 11));
In the code above, we check if the Love JavaScript string ends with the Java string. The search should be made between index 7 (included) and 11 (excluded). In this case, endswith() returns False because the string does not end with Java between the specified indexes.
