Create a program, longest.py, that has a function that takes one string argument and prints a sentence indicating the longest word in that string. If there is more than one word print only the first. Your print statement should read: “The longest word is x” Where x = the longest word. The word should be all lowercase. I have the correct code, but the out put should only print: "The longest word is x". In my case it asks me an input first which I don't need. string = input('Enter string:'). My question is to remove the 'Enter string:' from my code, so that I get the correct working prints with only: "The longest word is x". I tried to remove that, but could print. Thanks

def longestWord():
length = 0
x: longestWord() = ''
for word in string.split():
if len(word) > length:
length = len(word)
x = word
return x
*****string = input('Enter string:') **** (want to remove this part)
x = longestWord()
print('The longest word is', x) # should only print with this
longestWord()
