Replace A Name In A String In Python

I'm working on a assignment and I need to replace Alice with my name. Here is the program, for i in range(10): print(i) print(split_alice[i]).replace_alice('Alice','Alex')

Solution 1:

Just use replace() method on strings.. Like this

>>> mystr = 'My name is Alice'>>> mystr.replace('Alice','Alex')
'My name is Alex'

Also, if you have any doubts about anything, you should use help(). Like in your case:

>>> help(type(mystr))
