即使是下面的方法也是有效的

line = "a,b,c,d,e"
alpha = list(line)
        while ',' in alpha:
            alpha.remove(',')
finalString = ''.join(alpha)
print(finalString)

输出:中的

在Python 3.5中

例如,

os.rename(file_name, file_name.translate({ord(c): None for c in '0123456789'}))

从字符串中删除所有数字

对于只允许字符串中某些字符的相反要求，可以使用带有集补操作符[^ABCabc]的正则表达式。例如，要删除除ascii字母、数字和连字符以外的所有字符:

>>> import string
>>> import re
>>>
>>> phrase = '  There were "nine" (9) chick-peas in my pocket!!!      '
>>> allow = string.letters + string.digits + '-'
>>> re.sub('[^%s]' % allow, '', phrase)

'Therewerenine9chick-peasinmypocket'

来自python正则表达式文档:

不在范围内的字符可以通过互补来匹配 一组。如果集合的第一个字符是'^'，则所有字符 不在集合中的将被匹配。例如，[^5]将匹配 除'5'以外的任何字符，[^^]将匹配除 “^”。的第一个字符没有特殊意义 集。

这是我的Python 2/3兼容版本。因为翻译api已经改变了。

def remove(str_, chars):
    """Removes each char in `chars` from `str_`.

        str_: String to remove characters from
        chars: String of to-be removed characters

    Returns:
