Scala : Idiomatic way of removing set of suffixes (substrings) from a String -

i'm looking idiomatic way of stripping set of suffixes (substrings) string in scala.

val inputstring = "abc@xyz.com" val suffixes = list("\"", "@xyz.com") 

basically, suffixes list loaded externally , hence not static. therefore cannot use approach of chaining stripsuffix methods

(p.s. - i'll remove starting " using inputstring.stripprefix("\"")

you used foldleft along .stripsuffix() function iterate on dynamic list of suffixes , strip them string one-by-one.

val inputstring = "abc@xyz.com" val suffixes = list("\"", "@xyz.com") val strippedstring = suffixes.foldleft(inputstring) { (string, suffix ) =>      string.stripsuffix(suffix) } 

outputs: abc

with approach order of suffixes impact output.
