Length in python

Question

How can we write length of a string without including a particular character
For e.g length of "string" could be calculated as 5 by not including r.

Answer 1

Do it this way:
- Create a variable to add the length to
- Loop through the string
- Use a conditional statement (if an element is not something)
- Add it to the variable.
- Print the variable

Snippet:
length = 0
for letter in string:
if letter != the letter you don't want:
length += 1
print (length)

Happy Coding 😀

Answer 2

def getlen(s, c):
return len(s) - s.count(c)

print(getlen("string", 'r'))
