How can I move the first two characters of a word to the end of it? For example:

  • LUCAS --> CASLU
  • casa --> saca

I’ve tried using the replace transforming into list and read the first two characters [0:2],[-1:2]

As already commented, you can simply access the Index you want and rearrange them, for example with Ucas would look like this:

ss = "LUCAS"
print(ss[2:]+ss[0:2])

explaining, the ss[2:] means I’m picking from the second index to the end of the word (with nothing after the two points), ie the "CAS", then concatenating + with the ss[0:2] which are the next two letters from index 0, the "LU". Result: "CASLU"
