Returns the rightmost matching position of the search string in a main string

main_string.rfind(search_string, start, end)

search_string : Required, String to be searched and position is returned if found.

end : Optional , ending position of search, by default it is end of the string.

my_str='Welcome to plus2net.com Python section'
output=my_str.rfind('co') 
print(output) # output is 20

Using optional parameters start and end. If not matching is found then output is -1

my_str='Welcome to plus2net.com Python section'
output=my_str.rfind('co',10,21)
print(output) # output is -1

my_str='Welcome to plus2net.com Python section'
