method
tr

tr(p1, p2)
public
Returns a copy of str with the characters in from_str replaced by the corresponding characters in to_str. If to_str is shorter than from_str, it is padded with its last character. Both strings may use the c1–c2 notation to denote ranges of characters, and from_str may start with a ^, which denotes all characters except those listed.
