How can I replace a character in a string with a non ascii character in python?

Question

I want to replace the number sign (#) with a character like a sign called the musical sharpness sign (♯). I tried the following line but didn't work.

res['n'].replace('#', '♯')

I also tried them and also didn't work fine.

res['n'].replace('#', u'♯')
res['n'].replace('#', '\xe2')

Anyone got an idea of the situation?

import re
text = ' '
re.sub(' ', '\x00', text)

Why don't you use this?

Replace returns the modified string, the strings cannot be modified by themselves. Try

res['n'] = res['n'].replace('#', '♯')
