title: Why does str.lstrip strip an extra character?
body: <pre><code>&gt;&gt;&gt; path = &quot;/Volumes/Users&quot;
  &gt;&gt;&gt; path.lstrip('/Volume')
  's/Users'
  &gt;&gt;&gt; path.lstrip('/Volumes')
  'Users'
  &gt;&gt;&gt; 
  </code></pre>
  <p>I expected the output of <code>path.lstrip('/Volumes')</code> to be <code>'/Users'</code></p>
