Question

Python Error: Writing a program to complete the following:

• Prompt the user for the name of an input file.
• Open that file for input. (reading)
• Read the file using a "for line in a file" loop
• For each line,  o print the line and compute and print the average word length for that line.
• Close the input file Sample output:

MY CODE IS WRONG AND NEED HELP CORRECTING IT!!!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DESIRED OUTPUT:

Enter input file name: Seasons.txt

Thirty days hath September

5.75

April, June, and November

5.5

All the rest have thirty-one

4.8

Except February, which has twenty-eight.

7.2

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

CODE I HAVE WRITTEN (WRONG):

def main():

    # Prompt the user for the name of an input file.

    file=input("Enter input file name: ")

    # Open file.

    infile=open(file, "r")

    aLine = infile.readline()

    phrase=aLine

    # Use split to break phrase into individual strings.

    words = phrase.split()

    # Define word count

    wordCount = len(words)

    # Calculate average word count.

    for word in words:

        sum = 0

        avg = 1

        ch = len(word)

        sum = sum + ch

        avg = sum / wordCount

    print("A: ",aLine,avg)

    aLine = infile.readline()

    print("B: ",aLine,avg)

    aLine = infile.readline()

    print("C: ",aLine,avg)

    aLine = infile.readline()

    print("D: ",aLine,print(avg))

    infile.close()

main()

FILE IS CALLED: "Seasons.txt"

CONTENT:----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

April, June, and November
All the rest have thirty-one

Answer 1

#Seasons.txt

Thirty days hath September
April, June, and November
All the rest have thirty-one
Except February, which has twenty-eight.

#source code:

def main():
file=input("Enter input file name:")
f=open(file,"r")
for line in f.readlines():
sub=line.split(" ")
for i in range(len(sub)):
sub[i]=sub[i].replace("\n","")
count=0
word=0
for i in range(len(sub)):
count+=1
word+=len(sub[i])
print(sub[i],end=" ")
print("\n",round(word/count,2))
main()

#output:

#if you have any doubt comment below..if you like give thumbs up....
