I have been told:
Strings are immutable, which means they cannot be changed once created.
Use bracket notation to access the first letter in text and try to change it into a character of your choice.
What I have done so far is
User Editable Region
text = ‘Hello World’
new_char=‘j’
new_text=new_char+text[1:]
User Editable Region
shift = 3
alphabet = ‘abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz’
for char in text.lower():
index = alphabet.find(char)
print(char, index)
new_index = index + shift
I have also tried
text=‘hello world’
text=‘y’+text[0:]
and this did not work, what am I doing wrong?
Welcome @harjodh69 to FCC community
the correct syntax is
variablename[index]
here text is variable name and as per instruction u need to change index of first character. so index of first character is 0.
after following syntax and replacing it correctly assign any letter inside '' quotes to it.
I have tried:
text = ‘Hello World’
text[index(0)]=‘y’
And it still does not work
remove index and ()
variablename[index]
see here u need to replace index with 0
