In your case, the letters “S”, “t”, “a”, “i”, “s” and “c” will be removed from the end of a string if they exist.

You may want to use:

str = str.Substring(0, str.LastIndexOf("Staticstics"));

In the case above, using Substring and LastIndexOf does the following.

LastIndexOf will get the last occurance of a string or character by index in the string(a string is a character array).

Substring begins hacking from the beginning(index 0) of the string all the way until the index of “Staticstics”, so it’s lopped off.
