I want to replace "" with ", as it screws with the json decoder
val = '''""what""'''
print(val) # ""what""
val.replace('""', '"')
print(val) # ""what""
Input ""what""
Desired output "what"
Thank you in advance

Do you mean you want to replace each double quote with a single quote (that is, replace `"what"` with `'what'`)? – Orius Feb 17 '22 at 12:51

Edited for clarification, ""what"" is input, "what" is desired output – Roey Michaeli Feb 17 '22 at 12:55

`val.replace('""', '"')` builds a new string you do nothing with. You probably want `val = val.replace('""', '"')`. – timgeb Feb 17 '22 at 12:56
