Write a Python program to remove existing indentation from all of the lines in a given text

The program uses the textwrap module in Python to manipulate text. The para variable is a multi-line string that contains information about the Python programming language. First, the program prints the original string para as it is.

Next, the program uses the dedent method from the textwrap module to remove the common leading whitespace from every line in para. The method returns a new string with the leading whitespaces removed, which is stored in the res variable. Finally, the program prints the resulting string stored in res.

Source Code

import textwrap
para = """

print(para)
res = textwrap.dedent(para)
print(res)
