How to find the first letter of a input string

Question

I tried this :
x = input()
print(x[1])

Answer 1

Python uses 0-based indexing.

print(x[0])

Answer 2

This also will do the job:

print(input()[0])

Answer 3

Hey hey here counting starts from 0 not 1 🤘

Answer 4

In python indexes start at 0. It should be x[0]

Answer 5

Thanks

Answer 6

the regex here is ^\w where the ^ indicates to look if it happens at the start of the string and then the \w is for any a-z, A-Z, and _

Answer 7

look into regex. I use regex to do this stuff. something like
import re
x = input(“”)
y = re.findall(“^\w”, x)
print(y)
