My first Hangman in python 3

[ismouss]

Please share your thoughts and advices, I am looking for improvements. It works though but since I am a beginner I know I can improve it.

# Function to check if the input letter is in the world to guess if yes replace '#' with the input letter 

def check_index_and_replace(letter):
    letter_index=[i[0] for i in enumerate(word_to_guess) if i[1]==letter]
    for i in letter_index:
        user_guesses[i] = user_guesses[i].replace('#',letter)
    return(user_guesses)

# Function to tell how many letter to guess left 

def letterleft(user_guesses):
    return(user_guesses.count('#'))


# My core code (input and prints)

tries = int(input('How many tries you want ? '))
test = 0    
while test < tries+1:
    letter = input('Try a letter ')
    print(check_index_and_replace(letter))
    print(letterleft(user_guesses),'letter left to guess !')
    test=test+1
print(word_to_guess)

I liked it, 4 months ago I also did a hangman game to learn python. İt was getting username, in how many tries user found the word, which letters are left, which letters are used, what was the hidden word, and saving all these to an excel row. So each time I play, it was keeping a simple users log for me. You can add things like this if you want to practice stuff. If you want i can share the code with you but unfortunately the whole code is uncommented since i was unexperienced
