Тип строки в Python имеет очень много удобных методов. Сегодня пост про два таких метода которые чаще всего используются "однобоко". Это методы startswith() и endswith()
Самый обычный сценарий использования — проверка, начинается ли строка с указанной подстроки?
>>> "some_string".startswith("some")
True
И аналогичная ситуация с зеркальным вариантом этой функции, проверка совпадения с конца
>>> "some_string".endswith("some")
False
Так они используются в большинстве случаев что я видел. Но у этих функций есть еще два варианта использования.
🔸Сравнение нескольких подстрок
Для проверки нескольких подстрок в одной строке обычно вызывают эти функции несколько раз. Но на самом деле достаточно передать кортеж со всеми строками один раз. Если будет хоть одно совпадение то функция вернёт True.
>>>"my_image.png".endswith(("jpg", "png", "exr"))
True
🔸Диапазон поиска
Вторым аргументом можно передать индекс символа с которого следует начать сравнение, а третий аргумент это индекс последнего символа.
>>> ".filename.ext".startswith("file", 1)
True
>>> "file_###.ext".endswith('#', 0, -4)
True
Индексы можно указать отрицательными, что означает отсчёт с конца.

"A new massacre against the #Alawites in the city of #Latakia, in the #Dattour neighborhood, al-Mazar junction.
I beg all segments of the Syrian people, especially the #Druze, #Kurds, and any remaining members of the #Sunni community who still have a little humanity left in their hearts, to take to the streets in protest to stop these massacres against the innocent. These #massacres are not from yesterday, they are happening today, and as of moments ago, they are still being carried out by Syrian members of Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham #HTS, wearing their official uniforms.
Please, save those who remain."

Systematic Attacks on Religious Minorities' Shrines and Places of Worship in Syria
W #Hama: An extremist terrorist group has destroyed a religious shrine belonging to the #Alawite community, known as “Sheikh Muhammad al-Maghribi,” located in the village of #Asila in Masyaf, in the Ghab Plain in the rural countryside of Hama Governorate, yesterday 21 March 2026.
#Alawite: It is worth noting that attacks on Alawite religious shrines began following the fall of the regime, reaching their peak during the #massacres carried out against Alawites on the Syrian coast by al-Jolani’s forces. Incidents of assault on Alawite shrines have continued repeatedly, to the point where barely a month passes without an incident involving the bombing, desecration, or burning of shrines across various Alawite regions.
#Druze: Similarly, shrines belonging to the Druze community were subjected to comparable attacks, including vandalism, arson, and bombings, during the massacres of July 2025 in #Suwayda, carried out by the forces of al-Jolani’s terrorist regime.
#Christians: A church in #Damascus was also bombed in June 2025, in addition to attacks on churches in #Homs and the rural Homs region in the #alQusayr area. The massacres that took place in As-#Suwayda likewise saw the burning and destruction of three churches.
