How to find a word in a string

This is what I have tried but it's not executing as expected Name = input("Enter a string") Letter = input("Enter a letter") Repl = ("Enter a replacement") if (Name.find(Letter)==-1): print("Sorry the letter can not be found") else: print(Name.replace(Letter,Repl))

There is 1 issue in the code, see my comments: Name = input("Enter a string") Letter = input("Enter a letter") Repl = input("Enter a replacement") # input missing if Letter not in Name: # this is more convenient but no error print("Sorry the letter can not be found") else: print(Name.replace(Letter,Repl))

Correct the 3rd line. Repl=input("Enter a replacement")
