How to remove all characters after a specific character in python?

I have a string. How do I remove all text after a certain character? (In this case ...) The text after will ... change so I that's why I want to remove all characters after a certain one.
Split on your separator at most once, and take the first piece: sep = '...' stripped = text.split(sep, 1)[0] You didn't say what should happen if the separator isn't present. Both this and Alex's solution will return the entire string in that case.
