IMO, the "prefix" and "suffix" parts are necessary to fully clarify the intent (and do that well), so any of the verbs "strip", "trim", or "cut" work for me. I prefer Steven d'A's "cutprefix" and "cutsuffix" as the shortest, and by analogy to startswith/endswith, I'd drop the underscore (PEP 8 nothwithstanding). _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list Python-ideas@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-ideas Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
