all Python 3Byte sequencesfunction

bytes.endswith

bytes — search

Check whether the bytes end with a suffix.

Syntax

b.endswith(...)

The suffix must be bytes or a tuple of bytes: a str or a raw byte code is rejected with TypeError, unlike count/find, which do accept an integer. The start and end arguments carve out a slice first, and the suffix is matched against the end of that slice rather than of the whole object.

Examples

print(b'hello'.endswith(b'lo'))   # → True
print(b'report.txt'.endswith((b'.txt', b'.md')))   # → True
print(b'hello'.endswith(b'hell', 0, 4))   # → True
print(b'hello'.endswith(b''))   # → True
print(b'hello'.endswith('lo'))   # → TypeError
print(b'hello'.startswith(b'he'))   # → True
