How to find a word in a group of letters (python)

For example: x=input() #lets say that the user typed in ‘iowbchandlekv’ and now I want to check if ‘hand’ as a whole word is in x, how would I do this?

try this: https://code.sololearn.com/cVTGoZ9c279v/?ref=app if you want to see if a contains b then you can use: b in a #or a.find(b)!=1

Just iterate through the string and compare each character ( you can use the casefold function to make it suitable for caseless comparisions)

I forgot one of my questions, how would I cut off everything before hand now that it has been found?

str.find(word) should suffice
