Hi,
i have the following string s and the following code, which doesn't
successfully remove the "\", but sucessfully removes the "\\".
>>> s="Sad\\asd\asd"
>>> newS=""
>>> for i in s:
... if i!="\\":
... newS=newS+i
...
>>> newS
'Sadasd\x07sd'
I have also read the following, but i do not understand the "...and the
remaining characters have been mapped through the given translation
table, which must be a string of length 256". Can some explain?
*translate*( table[, deletechars])
Return a copy of the string where all characters occurring in the
optional argument deletechars are removed, and the remaining
characters have been mapped through the given translation table,
which must be a string of length 256.
For Unicode objects, the translate() method does not accept the
optional deletechars argument. Instead, it returns a copy of the s
where all characters have been mapped through the given translation
table which must be a mapping of Unicode ordinals to Unicode
ordinals, Unicode strings or |None|. Unmapped characters are left
untouched. Characters mapped to |None| are deleted. Note, a more
flexible approach is to create a custom character mapping codec
using the codecs <http://docs.python.org/lib/module-codecs.html>
module (see encodings.cp1251 for an example).
