I just started programming and created my first code which is a word counter. When I tested my code, it works on interactive window but not on the terminal because the terminal cannot accept multi-line input e.g. paragraphs. So, when I compile my code into exe, it cannot work unless I somehow convert the entire paragraph into a single line. Does anyone know any workaround to this problem? Thank you.
Hello, an edit here since I saw someone asked for the code for better help (p.s: the code worked perfectly though, it just can't accept a whole paragraph as input because there are 'enter' in paragraph, which counted as user enter and in turns, running the next code, and breaking them.):
#"full filter" show original word lenght, filter lenght, and filtered word lenght.
print('James first coding, Words Counter .2x')
sentence = str(input("""give me the word that you want to analyse: """)).replace(",","").replace('"',"").replace(".",'').replace("!",'').replace("?",'').replace(":",'').replace(";",'').replace("$",'')
words = sentence.split()
word_lim = int(input("minimum world lenght: "))
result = []
for word in words:
if len(word) > word_lim:
result.append(word)
print("original word lenght: ",len(words))
print("filter lenght: ",word_lim)
print("Result: ")
print("Total words: ", len(result))
print("total alphabets:",sum([len(x) for x in result]))
input('Press ENTER to exit')
Try this:
print("Enter your content, Ctrl-D and Enter to save it.")
contents = []
while True:
try:
line = input()
except EOFError:
break
contents.append(line)
print(*contents, sep = " ")
Enter your string in multiple lines. Once you complete giving the user input in multiple lines, press ctrl+d. It sends a signalEOF to your system.
If you are a windows user, use ctrl+z instead of ctrl+d. And enter.
