Remove n characters from a start of a string

python, string

Solution

The function could be:

def cutit(s,n):    
   return s[n:]

and then you call it like this:

name = "MyFullName"

print cutit(name, 2)   # prints "FullName"

Problem

I want to remove the first characters from a string. Is there a function that works like this? ``` >>> a = "BarackObama" >>> print myfunction(4,a) ckObama >>> b = "The world is mine" >>> print myfunction(6,b) rld is mine ```
