AttributeError: 'tuple' object has no attribute 'replace' For brackets

i have a simple code for trying to rename a name files by replace some characters but I get this error:

name=name.replace=(")","")
AttributeError: 'tuple' object has no attribute 'replace'

Code is here:

import os
os.chdir("/home/ubuntu/Desktop")
nfiles=os.listdir(os.getcwd())
new_files = [nfile for nfile in nfiles if nfile[-4:].lower()=='.txt']

for file in new_files:

    name = file
    name=name.replace=(")","")
    name=name.replace=(",","_")
    print(name)

replace is a method that you can apply to strings, so you should call it this way replace('old_str', 'new_str'). You are not using replace properly, so use this instead:

name=name.replace(")","")
name=name.replace(",","_")
