# Remove Punctuation in a String

punctuations = '''`~!@#$%^&*()-_=+{}[]\|;:'",.<>?'''

myString = "This is, a test-string (full) of punctuations ! [ok]?"

newString = ""

for char in myString:
    if char not in punctuations:
        newString = newString + char

print("\nThe Original String")
print(myString)
