Replacing the last character in a field

MarkHenigan — Wed, 25 Apr 2018 09:44:10 GMT

Hi,

I have a string field in attribute table with values like:

125.15.

1.589.

I need to replace the last character "." by "1" in the field calculator with python parser, so my values will be like:

125.151

1.5891

How can I do this?

Thanks

like this (python parser)

# ---- example ----
a = '125.15.'

"{}1".format(a[:-1])

'125.151'

# ---- for the field calculator ----

"{}1".format(!YourFieldNameHere![:-1])‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍
