Python

Tell us what’s happening:

I made this formula. however, I didn’t get righteous answer.
Hint indicates uses index: text[0], however, strings is immutable, Is there any solution instead of list? I think this phase is not assumed to use list.
I made this formula
alphabet = ‘abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz’
x =alphabet[1:]
y= ‘d’+ x
print(y)
I can get result of ‘dbcdefghiklmnopqrstuvwxyz’.
I hope I can get any advice. Thank you.

Hi. I suggest you reset the step to get your code back to how it was. You have added a line you didn’t need to. You have not passed to the find method what was asked. It tells what what to pass in place of “z” already there.
