[Tutor] String method "strip()" not working

2015-03-07 Thread Akash Shekhar
I am trying to learn how to use strip() method. It is supposed to cut out
all the whitespace as I read in the tutorial. But the code is not working.

Here's my code:

sentence = "Hello, how are you?"
>
>
>> print(sentence)
>
>
>> print(sentence.strip())
>
>
>> input("\n\nPress enter key to exit.")
>
>
>
Here's it's output:

Hello, how are you?
> Hello, how are you?
>
> Press enter key to exit.
>


Both results are same.

P.S.: I am using Python 3.1 IDLE on Windows 7.

Beautiful Soup can also extract text which is present on the page. If
there are no complete links no library can do that for you. But since
you are reaching a certain web page to extract you already have that
URL information with you. All you have to do then is to prefix it to
each extracted URL.

>>> str = 'string'
>>> for i in range(0, len(str)):
... print str[i]
...
s
t
r
i
n
g


just take care about the indentation.
