Error in python

I have written a code in python but it keeps on sayings that you can't add two strings. Please help me figure out the bug. https://code.sololearn.com/cINf99vkP9TX/?ref=app

You can't use the minus operator in strings, that's just how strings work

To remove the character, you can do: string.replace(character,"")

Lucky Luke Yours is a specific case here. Suppose you want to remove any character once, we need better code

You are trying to substract 2 strings, which is not possible.

Here is a working version of your code which removes the first letter of a string. https://code.sololearn.com/cH7zt2I3e26B/?ref=app

Dark Angel you are right, replace is more general.

I also figured out to convert them to lists and then subtract them
