Best way to replace a character from a string

What is the best way to remove a character from a string? Currently I am using this implementation to remove a comma from a string. Does the emptystring variable leave unexpected characters?

That should work.  emptystring is the same as "" in most programming languages -- a blank string of 0 length.  It is different than null and ignore, though has a "falsy" aspect to it.  (Fusion's backend is JavaScript, so you can imagine there's some overlap there.)

Based on some testing I had assumed that it was just that but I wanted to make sure and see if others were doing it any other way. Thanks for the quick response.
