Function Details: rpartition

Description

Partition the string into three parts using the given separator.

Extended Description

rpartition is a Python string method that splits string into 3-part tuple (before_separator, separator, after_separator) based on last occurrence of separator. Belongs to string division family with split and partition. Like partition, always returns three elements but searches from right side. Works with strip for clean text processing. If separator not found, returns two empty strings and original string. Essential for parsing from right side where separator position matters. Common in file path processing, URL parsing, and handling nested structures.

Exceptions

ValueError: If the separator is an empty string
