Using String Methods

The document provides several examples of Python programs that utilize string functions to manipulate and extract information. Examples include removing non-alphabetical or non-numeric characters from input, and extracting gender and birth date from a National Identity Card (NIC) number. The programs demonstrate the use of loops, conditionals, and string methods to achieve their objectives.

Using String functions

Example 1
'''This program removes all the other characters other
than alphabetical characters and space characters'''
text1=input('Enter a text with some other characters: ')
text2=''
for char in text1:
if [Link]()or [Link]():text2+=char
print(text2)

Example 2
'''This program removes all the other characters other
than numeric characters and decimal point'''
text1=input('Enter a number with some other characters: ')
text2=''
for char in text1:
if [Link]()or char=='.':text2+=char
print(float(text2))

Example3-1
#This program display gender and date of birth when NIC number is given
nic=input('Enter your NIC : ')
year='19'+nic[0:2]
days=int(nic[2:5])
if days<500:
print('Gender is Male')
else:
print('Gender is Female')
days-=500
if days<=31:
m=1
d=days
elif days<=60:
m=2
d=days-31
elif days<=91:
m=3
d=days-60
elif days<=121:
m=4
d=days-91
elif days<=152:
m=5
d=days-121
elif days<=182:
m=6
d=days-152
elif days<=213:
m=7
d=days-182
elif days<=244:
m=8
d=days-213
elif days<=274:
m=9
d=days-244
elif days<=305:
m=10
d=days-274
elif days<=335:
m=11
d=days-305
else:
m=12
d=days-335
print('Year = ',year)
print('Month = ',m)
print('Date = ',d)

Example3-2
#This program display gender and date of birth when NIC number is given
nic=input('Enter your NIC : ')
year='19'+nic[0:2]
days=int(nic[2:5])
if days<500:
print('Gender is Male')

ends=[0,31,60,91,121,152,182,213,244,274,305,335,366]
for end in ends:
if days<end:break
m=[Link](end)
d=days-ends[m-1]
print('Year = ',year)
print('Month = ',m)

Example 3-3
#This program display gender and date of birth when NIC number is given
nic=input('Enter your NIC : ')
if not nic[-1].isalpha():
year=nic[0:4]
days=int(nic[4:7])

days-=500

for end in ends:
if days<end:break

d=days-ends[m-1]
print('Year = ',year)
print('Month = ',m)
print('Date = ',d)

print('Date = ',d)
