How do I get a substring of a string in Python?

Question

Is there a way to substring a string in Python, to get a new string from the third character to the end of the string?

Maybe like myString[2:end]?

Answer 1

Maybe I missed it, but I couldn't find a complete answer on this page to the original question(s) because variables are not further discussed here. So I had to go on searching.

Since I'm not yet allowed to comment, let me add my conclusion here. I'm sure I was not the only one interested in it when accessing this page:

 >>>myString = 'Hello World'
 >>>end = 5

 >>>myString[2:end]
 'llo'

If you leave the first part, you get

 >>>myString[:end]
 'Hello' 

And if you left the : in the middle as well you got the simplest substring, which would be the 5th character (count starting with 0, so it's the blank in this case):

 >>>myString[end]
 ' '
