Psycho I think you copied this code from somewhere so there are some special characters added. Check this I have rewrite the code and working fine https://code.sololearn.com/cgWFzrFGmrE3/?ref=app

Looks like you copied and pasted the code and brought in some unwanted characters. I would copy and paste it into MS Word as plain text, then copy and paste it back into a blank new code in the Playground to get rid of them. You may have to tidy up the spacing and indenting to get it running properly.

Regardless of the fact that there are invalid characters in the code, there is a much simpler way to do this task. text = 'This is not a list' sub = 'is' print(text.count(sub)) # or in a nice formatting: print(f'substring: "{sub}" appears {text.count(sub)} times in "{text}"')

David Ashton Or copy to Notepad then directly to your destination, no need for the extra "paste as plain text" step as with MS Word.
