#- I need a piece of code that takes a string like this string1 =
#- "aaa/bbb/ccc/dd" and extracts a string containting the 
#- character after
#- the last "/"
#- 
#- So for this example the result would be "dd"
#- 
#- like this:
#- for i=0; string1.right(i) != '/'; i++
#- 
#- result = string1.mid(i, string1.length())
#- 
#- but in python.
