# as you doesn't indent if else statements, there are executed outside of the search function, where word is not accessible ^^ # also, you don't have to use arguments if you get user input... def search(): word=str(input()) text=str(input()) if word in text: print ("Word found") else: print("Word not found") # obviously, you need to call the function to execute its code: search() # Jackson Kairani Maina I have too removed the line attempting to print result of inner function call ;P
