python string starts with code example

Example 1: php string starts with

//php check if first four characters of a string = http
substr( $http, 0, 4 ) === "http";
//php check if first five characters of a string = https
substr( $https, 0, 5 ) === "https";

Example 2: python startswith

text = "Python is easy to learn."

result = text.startswith('is easy')
# returns False
print(result)

result = text.startswith('Python is ')
# returns True
print(result)

result = text.startswith('Python is easy to learn.')
# returns True
print(result)

Example 3: python startswith

# str -> the prefix you are looking for 
# beg -> where to start looking for the prefix
# end -> where to stop looking for the prefix

str.startswith(str, beg=0,end=len(string))

Example 4: python startswith

str.startswith(prefix[, start[, end]])
