Answer 1

Aakash Mitra do this,
search(text, word)
instead of

print(search(text, word))

_______________________

For print to print some value (other than None), search function needs to return a value.

Answer 2

Because you are printing a function that contains a print() function. The output of printing print() is None.

If you are going call your function by putting it in a print() function, then don't have your function print the word results, just return them. E.g.

if word in text:
return "Word found"
else:
return "Word not found"

then print(search(text, word)) should work.

Alternatively, if your function says

if word in text:
print("Word found")
else:
print("Word not found")

Then simply call the function by saying

search(text, word)

And that should also work.

Answer 3

Because search function doesn't returns a value and so printing it prints None by default.

just call the function instead of printing it as well.
