VB.Net Conversion To Python

[isocam]

Can anybody help?

Purely as a test, can anybody please convert the following code from VB.Net to Python for me?

Dim TestString As String = "50 x 50 x 2.9 SHS x 800 Long - Mitred Both Ends"

LeftString = Strings.Left(TestString, 1 + InStrRev(TestString, "x"))

RightString = Strings.Right(TestString, (Strings.Len(TestString) - (InStrRev(TestString, "Long") - 2)))

MsgBox(LeftString + "7855" + RightString)

Many thanks in advance!

Kind Regards

Darren

It can't be converted because you didn't define LeftString and RightString so the code to be converted isn't valid.

This should do it.

TestString = "50 x 50 x 2.9 SHS x 800 Long - Mitred Both Ends"
LeftString = TestString[:TestString.rfind('x') + 1]
RightString = TestString[TestString.rfind('Long'):]
print(f'{LeftString} 7855 {RightString}')
