How to Remove Letters from Strings in Python Using Functions with Positional Arguments

In the world of programming, manipulating strings is a fundamental skill. One common problem many beginners encounter is the need to remove specific letters from a string based on certain criteria. If you're looking to accomplish this in Python, especially by using functions with positional arguments while also adhering to certain constraints, you're in the right place!

The Problem

You may have faced a scenario where you want to take an input string and remove certain characters from it, say "aeiouhwy". The challenge here is to do so without utilizing lists, files, or dictionaries, strictly relying on loops, functions, and conditional statements. If you're struggling with how to structure your function and correctly utilize positional arguments, we're here to help clarify that for you.

The Solution

Setting Up the Function

To start, we want to define a function that will handle this string manipulation task. The function will take two positional arguments: the string we want to clean (let’s call it updated) and the letters we want to remove (let’s call it removed).

Here’s how you can form the function:

How the Function Works

Initialize a New String: We begin by creating an empty string new_word to store the characters that will remain after filtering.

Loop Through Each Character: Using a for loop, we iterate through each character in the input string (updated).

Conditional Check: For each character, we check if it is not in the removed string. If it is not, we append it to the new_word.

Return the New String: After iterating through all the characters, we return the new_word which now contains the filtered result.

Using the Function

Next, we need to prompt the user for a string input and call our remove_letters function. Here's how:

Final Code Implementation

Putting it all together, your complete code might look something like this:

Summary

With this implementation, you can effectively remove the specified letters from any string input without using lists, files, or dictionaries. By properly structuring your function with positional arguments, you maintain the flexibility and clarity that is essential in programming.

Now go ahead and experiment with different strings to see how your function performs. Happy coding!
