strip() removes leading and trailing whitespace but not internal.

Vishal Gautam Use regex and .strip(). For example: import re my_string = "some unmeaning text about nothing " my_string = re.sub(' +', ' ', my_string).strip() print(my_string)

To remove the whitespaces and trailing spaces from the string, Python providies strip([str]) built-in function. This function returns a copy of the string after removing whitespaces if present. Otherwise returns original string. string = " sololearn " string2 = " sololearn " string3 = " sololearn" print(string) print(string2) print(string3) print("After stripping all have placed in a sequence:") print(string.strip()) print(string2.strip()) print(string3.strip()) sololearn sololearn sololearn After stripping all have placed in a sequence: sololearn sololearn sololearn
