Python

Question

Please I need help with this

You’re working on a search engine. Watch your back Google!
The given code takes a text and a word as input and passes them to a function called search().
The search() function should return "Word found" if the word is present in the text, or "Word not found", if it’s not.

Answer 1

We are supposed to test of the input word is in the input text.
Your if-statement doesn't make much sense.

The output strings need to match the ones in the task description.

Answer 2

Please show your code so we can help you to find out what doesn't work!

Answer 3

Berve01 ,

as your profile shows, you have not really started a python course yet. since we need to learn the basics of python first, it is recommended to start with the tutorial *python for beginners*. without this basics, we will struggle frequently in our learning process.

happy coding and good progress!

Answer 4

The Python for Beginners course is not listed on your profile, so we can't know.

Read the task description carefully, put your code in a script on sololearn playground and share the link if you still need help

Answer 5

I won't spoil you the answer, but you need to declare your "search" function first.

def search(word, text):
# your code

Then call it with the user's inputs as arguments.

Answer 6

Lisa

text = input()
word = input()
search = ("text", "word")
if ("text", "word") in search:
print ("word found")
else:
print ("word not found")
