How to Remove a Substring from the String End (Remove Suffix)

To remove a substring from the end of a string, known as a suffix, there are several methods available.

Use removeprefix and removesuffix for Python 3.9 :

url = 'abcdc.com'
url.removesuffix('.com')  # Returns 'abcdc'

Use endswith and slicing for Python 3.8 and older:

if url.endswith('.com'):
    url = url[:-4]  # Remove '.com' suffix

Use regular expressions:

import re
url = re.sub('\.com$', '', url)  # Remove '.com' suffix

Note that the strip() method does not remove entire substrings but only strips individual characters specified in the argument.
