Don't use the method `replace` to remove punctuation from a Python string.

Instead, use the method `translate`.

This is much more efficient and more general.

The method `translate` expects a “translation table” in a specific format, but `maketrans` builds it for us.
Diagram showing how to use the string method `translate` to remove punctuation from a string. You can remove punctuation from a string in Python with ease. Instead of using the method `replace` repeatedly to remove one punctuation character at a time, you can use the method `translate`. The method `translate` expects a “translation table”, but `maketrans` builds it for us. The string method translate expects a “translation table”, which we build with the auxiliary class method maketrans. The third argument is a string of characters we want to delete. Full code: import string s = "Hello, world!" print(s.translate(str.maketrans("", "", string.punctuation))) # Hello world
