How to get a string after a specific substring?

Question

How can I get a string after a specific substring?

For example, I want to get the string after "world" in

my_string="hello python world, I'm a beginner"

...which in this case is: ", I'm a beginner")

Answer 1

The easiest way is probably just to split on your target word

my_string="hello python world , i'm a beginner"
print(my_string.split("world",1)[1])

split takes the word (or character) to split on and optionally a limit to the number of splits.

In this example, split on "world" and limit it to only one split.
