Question

s1 = 'Practice How to Use String Object'

Write a python statement that splits the string, creating the following list:

['Practice', 'How', 'to', 'Use', 'String', 'Object']

2.

1. Assume reply references a string. The following if statement determines whether reply is equal to ‘Y’ or ‘y’:

2. reply = input("Y or y to continue: ")

   if reply == "Y" and reply == "y":

      print("Y --- <uppercase> has been selected. ")

   else:

      print("y --- <lowercase> has been chosen. ")

   print("… continue running this program …")

3. Rewrite this statement in python so it only makes one comparison and does not use the or operator. (Hint: use either the upper or lower methods.)

4. Write a loop that asks the user “Do you want to repeat the program or quit? <R/Q> “. The loop should repeat until the user has entered an R or Q (either uppercase or lowercase).

Answer 1

1) Program:

s1 = 'Practice How to Use String Object'
#use split function to split s1 by spaces
listSplit = s1.split(" ")
print(listSplit)

[" Practice', 'How'to''Use', 'String'. 'Object'

2)

choice = 'r'
while(choice.lower()=='r'):
reply = input("Y or y to continue: ")
if(reply=='y'):
print("Y has been selected")
else:
print("y has been selected")
choice = input("Do you want to repeat the program or quit? <R/Q>: ")

Output:

Y or y to continue: y Y has been selected Do vou want to repeat the proqram or quit? Y or y to continue: Y y has been selected Do vou want to repeat the program or quit? 〈R/Q: r 〈R/Q: q
