String Indexing in Python
To access a specific character in a string, use square brackets with an index number inside. Remember, the index number is not the actual position of the character because indexing in Python starts at 0. Consider the example below for clarity.
# Initial string site = "codefinity" # Get the letters 'o' and 'y' print(site[1], site[9])
Everything was clear?
