Check Yourself!
Next we need to ensure that the user actually typed something.
empty_string = "" if len(empty_string) > 0: # Run this block. # Maybe print something? else: # That string must have been empty.
We can check that the user’s string actually has characters!
Instructions
1.
Write an if
statement that verifies that the string has characters.
- Add an
if
statement that checks thatlen(original)
is greater than zero. Don’t forget the:
at the end of theif
statement! - If the string actually has some characters in it,
print
the user’s word. - Otherwise (i.e. an
else:
statement), pleaseprint "empty"
.
You’ll want to run your code multiple times, testing an empty string and a string with characters. When you’re confident your code works, continue to the next exercise.
