The substring that you're looking for has spaces around the " symbol. The example inputs that you gave don't have spaces around the " symbols, so they don't contain the substring. The triple quotes are also unnecessary, though harmless -- it's not a multiline string, and there are no ' symbols to escape in the string. Try replacing the substring with just this: '"'. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
