So I am confuse of what should i do this is using Python

I have a txt string that I am imported it is writen like this:

-------------------------

Kick to the gut, punch to the head, kick to the leg,

punch to the heart, kick to the ribs. and you win

--------------------------

So I am confuse of what should i do to replace kick to punch and punch to kick

this is what i have done so far

i = open("kick.txt", 'r')

for word in i:

for word2 in i:

if word2 == "kick":

new=+ world2.replace("kick","punch")

print new

so this si just what i think it can be but i print nothing what should i do to do it

please help me to understand more about double loop and .replace

Explanation / Answer

In this python code, you do not require to double loops.
Double loops are required when you want to iterater over a sentEnce more than once. Here
we iterate of the loop only once and check if it is Kick or punch

we take the function replace(a,b) WHICH REPLACEs the string a by string b,
then we add the changed string to a new string s and print it.

I hope its clear, If not you can comment below.
Kindly see the output below.

*************************************************************************************************

i = open("kick.txt", 'r')
new=""
s=""
for word in i.split():
if word == "kick" :
new= word.replace("kick","punch")
elif word == "Kick":
new = word.replace("Kick","Punch")
elif word == "punch":
new= word.replace("punch","kick")
else:
new = word
s = s + " " + new
print s

*************************************************************************************************

Sample output:
Punch to the gut, kick to the head, punch to the leg, kick to the heart, punch to the ribs. and you win
