You can use replace

string = "There are 6 spaces in this string"
string = string.replace(' ', '')

new = "There are 6 spaces in this old_string.".replace(' ', '')

If you want to strip all whitespace, including tabs:

new = ''.join( old_string.split() )

You can use replace() :

print(string.replace(" ", ""))

You can also delete white characters at the end / beginning (or both!) with rstrip, lstrip or strip.
