考虑unicode。代码已在python3中检查。

from unicodedata import category
text = 'hi, how are you?'
text_without_punc = ''.join(ch for ch in text if not category(ch).startswith('P'))

下面是Python 3.5的一行代码：

import string
"l*ots! o(f. p@u)n[c}t]u[a'ti\"on#$^?/".translate(str.maketrans({a:None for a in string.punctuation}))

# FIRST METHOD
# Storing all punctuations in a variable    
punctuation='!?,.:;"\')(_-'
newstring ='' # Creating empty string
word = raw_input("Enter string: ")
for i in word:
     if(i not in punctuation):
                  newstring += i
print ("The string without punctuation is", newstring)

# SECOND METHOD
word = raw_input("Enter string: ")
punctuation = '!?,.:;"\')(_-'
newstring = word.translate(None, punctuation)
print ("The string without punctuation is",newstring)


# Output for both methods
Enter string: hello! welcome -to_python(programming.language)??,
The string without punctuation is: hello welcome topythonprogramminglanguage

这里有一个使用RegEx的简单方法

import re

punct = re.compile(r'(\w+)')

sentence = 'This ! is : a # sample $ sentence.' # Text with punctuation
tokenized = [m.group() for m in punct.finditer(sentence)]
sentence = ' '.join(tokenized)
print(sentence) 
'This is a sample sentence'

>>> s = "string. With. Punctuation?"
>>> s = re.sub(r'[^\w\s]','',s)
>>> re.split(r'\s*', s)


['string', 'With', 'Punctuation']

我在寻找一个非常简单的解决方案。这是我得到的：

import re 

s = "string. With. Punctuation?" 
s = re.sub(r'[\W\s]', ' ', s)

print(s)
'string  With  Punctuation '
