拆分字符串，剥离单词和标点符号怎么样?

w in [ws.strip(',.?!') for ws in p.split()]

如有需要，请注意小写或大写:

w.lower() in [ws.strip(',.?!') for ws in p.lower().split()]

也许是这样:

def wcheck(word, phrase):
    # Attention about punctuation and about split characters
    punctuation = ',.?!'
    return word.lower() in [words.strip(punctuation) for words in phrase.lower().split()]

示例:

print(wcheck('CAr', 'I own a caR.'))

我没有检查性能……

高级的方法来检查确切的单词，我们需要在一个长字符串中找到:

import re
text = "This text was of edited by Rock"
#try this string also
#text = "This text was officially edited by Rock" 
for m in re.finditer(r"\bof\b", text):
    if m.group(0):
        print("Present")
    else:
        print("Absent")

你可以在"word"前后加一个空格。

x = raw_input("Type your word: ")
if " word " in x:
    print("Yes")
elif " word " not in x:
    print("Nope")

这样它会查找“word”前后的空格。

>>> Type your word: Swordsmith
>>> Nope
>>> Type your word:  word 
>>> Yes

由于您要求的是一个词，而不是一个字符串，我想提出一个解决方案，这是不敏感的前缀/后缀和忽略大小写:

#!/usr/bin/env python

import re


def is_word_in_text(word, text):
    """
    Check if a word is in a text.

    Parameters
    ----------
    word : str
    text : str

    Returns
    -------
    bool : True if word is in text, otherwise False.

    Examples
    --------
    >>> is_word_in_text("Python", "python is awesome.")
    True

    >>> is_word_in_text("Python", "camelCase is pythonic.")
    False

    >>> is_word_in_text("Python", "At the end is Python")
    True
    """
    pattern = r'(^|[^\w]){}([^\w]|$)'.format(word)
    pattern = re.compile(pattern, re.IGNORECASE)
    matches = re.search(pattern, text)
    return bool(matches)


if __name__ == '__main__':
    import doctest
    doctest.testmod()

如果你的单词可能包含正则表达式特殊字符(例如+)，那么你需要re.escape(word)

出了什么问题:

if word in mystring: 
   print('success')

您可以将字符串拆分为单词并检查结果列表。

if word in string.split():
    print("success")
