AttributeError: 'function' object has no attribute 'replace'

Question

I'm using this code to try to replace a character:

from another_test import test_once_more
test_once_more()
question = input("1 letter ")
for letter in question:
    if letter == "a":
        test_once_more.replace("1","a")
        print (test_once_more)

This is the code I am using. All I want it to do is replace the 1 in this code.

def test_once_more():
    print ("123456789")

and replace it with an "A"

Answer 1

You can't.

The function is printing something and returns None. There's no way to change that after the fact.

What you should do is have the function return a value and work on that:

def test_once_more():
    return "123456789"

and then

from another_test import test_once_more
result = test_once_more()
question = input("1 letter ")
for letter in question:
    if letter == "a":
        result = result.replace("1","a")
        print (result)

although I'm puzzled why you're using a for loop to iterate over a string that will be a single character (at least if your user follows your request)...
