[FIXED] SyntaxError: 'return' outside function(using jupyter notebook)

Issue

SyntaxError: 'return' outside function, any solution for this? using jupyter notebook

string='"hello"'
for i in string:
    if i=='\"':
      d=string.replace("\"","")
      return d
    else:
      return string

Solution

a return statement must be inside a function

for instance:

def my_function():
    string='"hello"'
    for i in string:
        if i=='\"':
          d=string.replace("\"","")
          return d
        else:
          return string

This solves and explains your error. furas comment says:

"Your code makes no sense - use directly single line string = string.replace(""","") – furas"
