Each listed method works on an exclusive logic to define the input string and then remove the vowels associated with it. In simpler terms, these techniques make use of the loops or formulations to check and remove the listed vowels from the given string and then return the output string without any vowels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n
Method I – The Loop Method<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nThis method would loop around in search of the vowels in the given input string. The notable point here is that we include both uppercase & lowercase vowels while declaring what to detect in the string. This is done to factor in the effect of difference cases in which the letters are available in the string. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
We shall get started by assigning hippopotamus <\/em>as an input string, followed by listing down all the vowels to be identified and removed from the string. Also we shall define a variable result <\/em>to be empty.<\/p>\n\n\n\nstring = "hippopotamus"\nvowels = {'a', 'e', 'i', 'o', 'u', 'A', 'E', 'I', 'O', 'U'}\nresult = ""\n<\/pre><\/div>\n\n\n![\"Assigning](\"https:\/\/www.askpython.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Assigning-Input-String-and-Vowels.jpg\")
Assigning Input String and Vowels<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\nNow we shall create an iteration using a for loop<\/a><\/em> combined with an if<\/em> statement to extract the result as string without vowels. Have a look at its construction below.<\/p>\n\n\n\nfor i in range(len(string)):\n if string[i] not in vowels:\n result = result + string[i]\n<\/pre><\/div>\n\n\n![\"Constructing](\"https:\/\/www.askpython.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Constructing-Vowel-removal-code.jpg\")
Constructing the Vowel Removal Code<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\nOnce done, the print <\/em>function shall be used to return the result.<\/p>\n\n\n\nprint("\\n After removing Vowels:", result)\n<\/pre><\/div>\n\n\n![\"Print](\"https:\/\/www.askpython.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Print-function-to-return-the-result.jpg\")
Displaying the Result<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\nWhen the code is run, the following result is returned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"Resultant](\"https:\/\/www.askpython.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Resultant-string-without-vowels.jpg\")
Resultant String Without Vowels<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\nMethod II \u2013 Using the Regular Expression<\/strong>s<\/h2>\n\n\n\nAn alternate technique that can be deployed to remove the vowels from the input string is using the \u2018re\u2019 \u2013 regular expression. We will get started by importing it from Python’s standard library, followed by defining a customized module. Within this module we shall provide the condition that states how to remove the vowels from the input string.<\/p>\n\n\n
\nimport re\ndef rem_vowel(string):\n return(re.sub("[aeiouAEIOU]","",string))\n<\/pre><\/div>\n\n\n![\"Creating](\"https:\/\/www.askpython.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Creating-a-Custom-Function.jpg\")
Creating a Custom Function to Remove Vowels<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\nDeclare an input string & return the output using the print <\/em>statement as shown below.<\/p>\n\n\n\nstring = "Hippopotamus"\nx = rem_vowel(string)\nprint(x)\n<\/pre><\/div>\n\n\n![\"Result](\"https:\/\/www.askpython.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Result-removing-vowels-1024x219.jpg\")
Result Removing Vowels<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\nMethod III \u2013 The Iterator & Join Technique<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nThis is a two step method in which the extraction of the consonants from the string is isolated at the first step followed by the joining of consonants together to form a word. Let\u2019s get started by defining the string & vowels as shown below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"Declaring](\"https:\/\/www.askpython.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Declaring-Vowels-Input-String.jpg\")
Declaring Vowels Input String<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\nThis is followed by constructing a variable \u2018result<\/em>\u2019 with a set of instructions to remove the vowels and return only the consonants from the input string. But, it is to be noted that the returned value will not be in the form of a word, rather be in the form of separated letters as shown below.<\/p>\n\n\n\nresult = [letter for letter in string if letter.lower() not in vowels]\nprint(result)\n<\/pre><\/div>\n\n\n![\"Isolated](\"https:\/\/www.askpython.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Isolated-Consonants-Returned.jpg\")
Isolated Consonants Returned<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\nNow it\u2019s time to join the isolated letters using join command as shown below.<\/p>\n\n\n
\nfinal = ''.join(result)\nprint(final)\n<\/pre><\/div>\n\n\n![\"Combining](\"https:\/\/www.askpython.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Combining-Consonants-using-the-Join-function.jpg\")

\n\n\n\nConclusion<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nWe’ve explored three different techniques to remove vowels from a given input string using Python. Each method offers a unique approach, from using loops and conditionals to employing regular expressions or the iterator and join techniques. Having a variety of methods available will allow you to choose the most suitable approach, depending on your specific text processing needs.
