To remove the first character of a string in Ruby, you can use the slice method with a range starting from index 1.
In this example,
str1
with a value of "Hello World"
.str1 = "Hello World"
str1 = str1[1..-1]
puts "Modified string is: #{str1}"
Modified string is: ello World
In this example,
str2
with a value of "apple"
.str2 = "apple"
str2 = str2[1..-1]
puts "Modified string is: #{str2}"
Modified string is: pple
