[Tutor] Help with writing a program

[Luke Paireepinart]

There is an equivalent page in the documentation for Python 3 as well,
regarding strings.

This sounds a lot like a homework problem so you are unlikely to get a lot
of help.  You certainly won't get exact code.

What have you tried so far?  Where are you getting stuck?  We're not here
to write code for you, this list is meant to help you learn something
yourself.  If you just want someone to write code for you there are plenty
of sites that will do that.  But if you want to figure it out I'd be happy
to give you some hints if I can see that you're making some effort.  One
effort you could make would be to find the relevant Python 3 document
discussing strings and check if it has some references to finding
substrings.

Let me know what you try and I'll help you if you get stuck.

Thanks,
-Luke
