这个怎么样，一行字。

reduce(lambda x,y : x.replace(y,"") ,[',', '!', '.', ';'],";Test , ,  !Stri!ng ..")

如果你使用python2并且输入是字符串(而不是unicode)，那么绝对最好的方法是str.translate:

>>> chars_to_remove = ['.', '!', '?']
>>> subj = 'A.B!C?'
>>> subj.translate(None, ''.join(chars_to_remove))
'ABC'

否则，可考虑以下选项:

A.逐字符迭代主题，省略不需要的字符并加入结果列表:

>>> sc = set(chars_to_remove)
>>> ''.join([c for c in subj if c not in sc])
'ABC'

(注意生成器版本“。Join (c for c…)将降低效率)。

B.动态创建正则表达式，re.sub为空字符串:

>>> import re
>>> rx = '[' + re.escape(''.join(chars_to_remove)) + ']'
>>> re.sub(rx, '', subj)
'ABC'

(re.escape确保^或]这样的字符不会破坏正则表达式)。

C.使用translate的映射变体:

>>> chars_to_remove = [u'δ', u'Γ', u'ж']
>>> subj = u'AжBδCΓ'
>>> dd = {ord(c):None for c in chars_to_remove}
>>> subj.translate(dd)
u'ABC'

完整的测试代码和计时:

#coding=utf8

import re

def remove_chars_iter(subj, chars):
    sc = set(chars)
    return ''.join([c for c in subj if c not in sc])

def remove_chars_re(subj, chars):
    return re.sub('[' + re.escape(''.join(chars)) + ']', '', subj)

def remove_chars_re_unicode(subj, chars):
    return re.sub(u'(?u)[' + re.escape(''.join(chars)) + ']', '', subj)

def remove_chars_translate_bytes(subj, chars):
    return subj.translate(None, ''.join(chars))

def remove_chars_translate_unicode(subj, chars):
    d = {ord(c):None for c in chars}
    return subj.translate(d)

import timeit, sys

def profile(f):
    assert f(subj, chars_to_remove) == test
    t = timeit.timeit(lambda: f(subj, chars_to_remove), number=1000)
    print ('{0:.3f} {1}'.format(t, f.__name__))

print (sys.version)
PYTHON2 = sys.version_info[0] == 2

print ('\n"plain" string:\n')

chars_to_remove = ['.', '!', '?']
subj = 'A.B!C?' * 1000
test = 'ABC' * 1000

profile(remove_chars_iter)
profile(remove_chars_re)

if PYTHON2:
    profile(remove_chars_translate_bytes)
else:
    profile(remove_chars_translate_unicode)

print ('\nunicode string:\n')

if PYTHON2:
    chars_to_remove = [u'δ', u'Γ', u'ж']
    subj = u'AжBδCΓ'
else:
    chars_to_remove = ['δ', 'Γ', 'ж']
    subj = 'AжBδCΓ'

subj = subj * 1000
test = 'ABC' * 1000

profile(remove_chars_iter)

if PYTHON2:
    profile(remove_chars_re_unicode)
else:
    profile(remove_chars_re)

profile(remove_chars_translate_unicode)

(作为一个边注，remove_chars_translate_bytes的数字可能会给我们一个线索，为什么业界在这么长时间内不愿意采用Unicode)。

你可以使用str.translate():

s.translate(None, ",!.;")

例子:

>>> s = "asjo,fdjk;djaso,oio!kod.kjods;dkps"
>>> s.translate(None, ",!.;")
'asjofdjkdjasooiokodkjodsdkps'

Python 3，单行列表综合实现。

from string import ascii_lowercase # 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'
def remove_chars(input_string, removable):
  return ''.join([_ for _ in input_string if _ not in removable])

print(remove_chars(input_string="Stack Overflow", removable=ascii_lowercase))
>>> 'S O'

最近我在钻研scheme，现在我觉得我擅长递归和求值。哈哈哈。分享一些新的方法:

首先，求值

print eval('string%s' % (''.join(['.replace("%s","")'%i for i in replace_list])))

第二，递归

def repn(string,replace_list):
    if replace_list==[]:
        return string
    else:
        return repn(string.replace(replace_list.pop(),""),replace_list)

print repn(string,replace_list)

嘿，别投反对票。我只是想分享一些新的想法。

我认为这是足够简单和将做!

list = [",",",","!",";",":"] #the list goes on.....

theString = "dlkaj;lkdjf'adklfaj;lsd'fa'dfj;alkdjf" #is an example string;
newString="" #the unwanted character free string
for i in range(len(TheString)):
    if theString[i] in list:
        newString += "" #concatenate an empty string.
    else:
        newString += theString[i]

这是一种方法。但是如果你厌倦了保留一个你想要删除的字符列表，你实际上可以通过使用你迭代的字符串的顺序号来做到这一点。订单号是该字符的ASCII值。0作为字符的ASCII码是48，小写z的ASCII码是122，所以:

theString = "lkdsjf;alkd8a'asdjf;lkaheoialkdjf;ad"
newString = ""
for i in range(len(theString)):
     if ord(theString[i]) < 48 or ord(theString[i]) > 122: #ord() => ascii num.
         newString += ""
     else:
        newString += theString[i]
