  • head::Integer: Specified number which removes the starting characters of the string.
  • tail::Integer: Specified number which removes the last characters of the string.

Returns: It returns the left part of the specified string after removal.

# Julia program to illustrate 
# the use of String chop() method
  
# Getting the removal part of the strings
println(chop("GeeksforGeeks"))
println(chop("GeeksforGeeks", head = 1, tail = 2))
println(chop("GeeksforGeeks", head = 5, tail = 5))
println(chop("GeeksforGeeks", head = 5, tail = 8))
println(chop("GeeksforGeeks", head = 13, tail = 13))
