Checking for a substring in unicode value

Suppose I have a variable that has a unicode value in a Python script.

 place_name = u'K\u016bla Mountain'

In this instance, 016b denotes that a macron accent mark is used over the u. I want to check for ‘016b’ in the substring and if found, change place_name to u'Kula Mountain'. If it was just a string, I could use:

if '016b' in place_name:
    place_name = 'Kula Mountain'

But that won’t work with the unicode value. Whats the simplest way to check for ‘016b’ and if found, change place_name to uncode value of u'Kula Mountain'?

Note, I tried:

 if '016b' in ord(alt_map_name):
      place_name = u'Kula Mountain'

as suggested by other posts on this issue, but got

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: ord() expected a character, but string of length 16 found

EDIT: To be clear, I just want to check for the macron (0x016b), be it with a ‘u’ or any other letter.

>Solution :

place_name = u'K\u016bla Mountain'


if 0x016b in [ord(c) for c in place_name]:
    place_name = u'Kula Mountain'
print(place_name)

output:-

Kula Mountain

In your case, 0x016b represents the Unicode code point for the character 'u' and ord() take single character as an argument.so, you can use list comprehension in this
