How to replace nth character occurrence with another character Python.
I need to change all "rn" characters in greater than nth position with ""
for eg:
"2019rnrnrnrnrnrnrn2020"
need to convert this as (where n = 3)
"2019rnrnrn2020"
Is there any better way in python to do this or in regex?
Please help..!!
