How to cut all characters from the beginning and the end of the string which are not alphanumerical?
For example:
print(clearText('%!_./123apple_42.juice_(./$)'))
# => '123apple_42.juice'
print(clearText(' %!_also remove.white_spaces(./$) '))
# => 'also remove.white_spaces'
This guy grabs everything between alphanumeric characters.
import re
def clearText(s):
return re.search("[a-zA-Z0-9].*[a-zA-Z0-9]", s).group(0)
print(clearText("%!_./123apple_42.juice_(./$)"))
