remove function in string c++ code example

Example 1: erasing a character from a string in c++

// string::erase
#include <iostream>
#include <string>

int main ()
{
  std::string str ("This is an example sentence.");
  std::cout << str << '\n';
                                           // "This is an example sentence."
  str.erase (10,8);                        //            ^^^^^^^^
  std::cout << str << '\n';
                                           // "This is an sentence."
  str.erase (str.begin()+9);               //           ^
  std::cout << str << '\n';
                                           // "This is a sentence."
  str.erase (str.begin()+5, str.end()-9);  //       ^^^^^
  std::cout << str << '\n';
                                           // "This sentence."
  return 0;
}

Example 2: string erase character c++

#include <iostream>
#include <algorithm>
#include <string>
 
int main()
{
    std::string s = "This is an example";
    std::cout << s << '\n';
 
    s.erase(0, 5); // Erase "This "
    std::cout << s << '\n';
 
    s.erase(std::find(s.begin(), s.end(), ' ')); // Erase ' '
    std::cout << s << '\n';
 
    s.erase(s.find(' ')); // Trim from ' ' to the end of the string
    std::cout << s << '\n';
}

Example 3: erase string c++

string& erase (size_t pos = 0, size_t len = npos);
/*
pos
Position of the first character to be erased.
If this is greater than the string length, it throws out_of_range.
Note: The first character in str is denoted by a value of 0 (not 1).
len
Number of characters to erase (if the string is shorter, as many characters as possible are erased).
A value of string::npos indicates all characters until the end of the string.
