Basically, if I have a string 'AJ' and another string 'AJYF', I would like to be able to write 'AJYF'-'AJ' and get 'YF'.
I tried this but got a syntax error.
Just on a side note the subtractor will always will be shorter than the string it is subtracted from. Also, the subtractor will always be like the string it is subtracted from. For instance, if I have 'GTYF' and I want to subtract a string of length 3 from it, that string has to be 'GTY'.
If it is possible, the full function I am trying to do is convert a string to a list based on how long each item in the list is supposed to be. Is there any way of doing that?

Reverse both strings. Keep subtracting digits one by one from 0'th index (in reversed strings) to the end of a smaller string, append the diff if it's positive to end of the result. If difference(diff) is negative then add 10 and keep track of carry as 1 if it's positive then carry is 0. Finally, reverse the result.
The Python string doesn't have a subtraction operator.
To show the difference, list(Counter(a=1, b=2)) == ['a', 'b'] while list(Counter(a=1, b=2). elements()) == ['a', 'b', 'b'] .
To subtract two numbers in Python, use the subtraction(-) operator. The subtraction operator (-) takes two operands, the first operand on the left and the second operand on the right, and returns the difference of the second operand from the first operand.
Easy Solution is:
>>> string1 = 'AJYF' >>> string2 = 'AJ' >>> if string2 in string1: ... string1.replace(string2,'') 'YF' >>> If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
