Remove \n from a string in Python (Backslash n)

Hello programmers, in this tutorial, we will learn how to remove \n from a string in Python (Backslash n).

We are going to do this using the replace() method.

replace() Method

• replace() remove the part of a string or that particular character we pass as a parameter into this replace method and replace that part with the new characters we pass as a parameter.
• It takes two parameters as an input in which 1st is the character that we want to remove, and 2nd is the character that we want to replace at that position.

Coding

• we have to create a string that has ‘\n‘ throughout it.
• Then we use replace() method, which is an inbuilt method in Python.
• In this method, we pass two parameters,1st which we want to remove so that character in our string is ‘\n‘ .
• And 2nd which we want to replace at that place, so we just replace ‘\n‘ with empty string ‘ “” ‘.
• And we assign this to a new string, and at last, we see there is no ‘\n’ in our new string.

#string that contain '\n'
string = "CodeSpeedy \n Coding \n Solution & Software \n Development"
print("Old string: ",string)
#using replace() function
string = string.replace('\n',"")
print("New string: ",string)

output:

Old string:  CodeSpeedy 
 Coding 
 Solution & Software 
 Development
New string:  CodeSpeedy  Coding  Solution & Software  Development
