Okay, and what if there are multiple occurrences of more than one character? Will the subsequent character be replaced as well? You could approach the task like this: * Identify all characters that occur more then once. * Find the indices of these characters * Replace the characters at all but their lowest found index. If you need help with code, please ⭐LINK YOUR CODE ATTEMPT⭐

ADYA RAI , may be this helps: in case all duplicates of the first character should be replaced, by keeping the first character: assuming the string consist only of one word - make a copy of the first character - replace all duplicates in string but start from index 1 not from 0 - concatenate the first character + the result from the replace operation - print the result

Your task description seems incomplete to me. Please give an example and link your code attempt. Please tag "Python".

Why not '$esta$t'? And how is determined which character will be replaced? Please give all relevant inputs

Apply regex.sub on the tail of the word, where the head of the word is to be substituted. Add substituted tail to head.
