.endswith()

The .endswith() method checks a value against a given string and returns True if the string ends with that value. Otherwise, it returns False.

Syntax

string.endswith(value, start, end)

Given a string, the .endswith() method can be used in the following way:

• The required value argument, which is checked if it exists at the end of the string. It is also case-sensitive.

• Optionally, the value can be tested for whether it is at the end of a particular substring within the string using the start and end index arguments.

Example

example_str = "This is a string"

check_A = example_str.endswith("g")
check_B = example_str.endswith("s")
check_C = example_str.endswith("st", 5, 12)

print("A: ", check_A)
print("B: ", check_B)
print("C: ", check_C)

The output will look like this:

A: True
B: False
C: True

From the above example, for check_A the output is True as the .endswith() function checks whether the example_str string ends with the character “g”.
