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.

🪐 Scientists using the Green Bank Telescope detected a persistent radio signal from Proxima Centauri, the closest star to our Sun, sparking interest due to its unusual nature. Although later studies found the signal was most likely caused by human technology, Proxima Centauri remains a key target in the search for alien life because it hosts the potentially habitable planet Proxima b. ✨

🪐 The SETI Institute's ongoing Breakthrough Listen project regularly targets the region around the star Proxima Centauri—our solar system’s closest neighbor—searching for unusual radio signals that could hint at alien technology. By scanning billions of radio frequencies from Proxima Centauri and other nearby stars, scientists are using real astronomy to explore whether advanced extraterrestrial civilizations might exist within our interstellar neighborhood. ✨

🪐 The future of interstellar travel may hinge on new propulsion ideas being studied today, like nuclear electric propulsion—which uses nuclear reactors to generate electricity for ultra-efficient ion engines. NASA has tested this kind of technology in missions like Deep Space 1, and scientists hope that one day, such systems could send spacecraft toward distant stars like Proxima Centauri far faster than chemical rockets ever could. ✨

🪐 Scientists are investigating laser-driven spacecraft, where powerful laser beams from Earth could propel tiny probes at speeds up to 20% that of light—fast enough to reach Proxima Centauri, our closest neighboring star system, in just over 20 years. This approach, known as "light sail" propulsion, uses intense light pressure against a thin, reflective sail to accelerate a probe, offering a glimpse of how interstellar journeys could become possible within a human lifetime. ✨

🪐 The challenge of reaching other star systems like Proxima Centauri, over 4 light-years away, drives scientists to explore futuristic spaceship concepts beyond anything in use today. One promising idea is fusion propulsion, which would harness the power of fusing atomic nuclei—just like in the Sun—to generate immense thrust, potentially making journeys to nearby stars possible in a matter of decades rather than millennia. ✨
