title: How do I use wildcards in Python
body: <p>I am new to Python. I am trying to write a function that will take in a string (formula in excel), and will replace any use of ISBLANK() with FALSE. This is what I am trying and cannot seem to get it to work.</p>
  <pre><code>temp = sheet[cellCord].value
  temp = temp.replace(&quot;ISBLANK(*)&quot;, &quot;FALSE&quot;)
  sheet[cellCord].value = temp
  </code></pre>
  <p>Most of the time it will be in an early cell so I also tried using three '?'s instead of '*' but it still does not work. If you guys have any advice or good resources that could help I would appreciate it.</p>
  <p>EDIT: An example of what I am trying to do is change</p>
  <pre><code>=IF(ISBLANK(W22), &quot;&quot;, (X22/W13))
  </code></pre>
  <p>into</p>
  <pre><code>=IF(FALSE, &quot;&quot;, (X22/W13))
  </code></pre>
