[FIXED] How to check if a sub string is in quotes?

Issue

I have this code and I want to check if a sub string is in quotes. I'm trying to make a programming language.

code = """
Console.Print("Hello"); Console.Print("World");
"""

Any help would be appreciated.

EDIT: I found that you can use regex to do this.

Solution

Not sure what exactly you want to do with the output, but a brute-force approach would be looping through the string.

code = '''Console.Print("Hello"); Console.Print("World");
'''

display = False
words = []
new_word = ''
for letter in code:
    if letter == "\"" and not display:
        display = True
    elif letter == "\"":
        words.append(new_word)
        new_word = ''
        display = False
    if display and letter!='\"':
        new_word +=letter
        
print(words)

Probably not the most efficient approach.
