Question

1.

Write an if statement that verifies that the string has characters.

• Add an if statement that checks that len(original) is greater than zero. Don’t forget the : at the end of the if statement!
• If the string actually has some characters in it, print the user’s word.
• Otherwise (i.e. an else: statement), please print "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.

Answer 1

Program:

#Take user input
userString = input("Enter a word: ")
#Calculate lenght of string
length = len(userString)
#Check whether length is greater than zero and string has charcters
if length>0 and userString.isalpha():
print(userString)
else:
print("empty")
