You have two issues with your code. First: The sentence needs to be one line so "Hi there" becomes: iHay heretay Not: iHay heretay change print to: print(output, end=" ") Second: Your substitution replaces all occurences with a space so "test" becomes: es tay change to l[1:] which returns the second though the last characters.
