Chapter 8, Problem 1PP
Solution to
Write a program that reads in a sentence of up to 100 characters and outputs the sentence with spacing corrected and with letters corrected for capitalization. In other words, in the output sentence, all strings of two or more blanks should be compressed to a single blank. The sentence should start with an uppercase letter but should contain no other uppercase letters.
Do not worry about proper names; if their first letters are changed to lowercase, that is acceptable. Treat a line break as if it were a blank, in the sense that a line break and any number of blanks are compressed to a single blank. Assume that the sentence ends with a period and contains no other periods. For example, the input
| the Answer to life, the Universe, and everything IS 42. |
should produce the following output:
| The answer to life, the universe, and everything is 42. |

Q: 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

Q1__;.
A phrase is a palindrome if, after converting all uppercase letters into lowercase letters and removing all non-alphanumeric characters, it reads the same forward and backward. Alphanumeric characters include letters and numbers.
Given a string s, return true if it is a palindrome, or false otherwise.
Example 1:
Input: s = "A man, a plan, a canal: Panama" Output: true Explanation: "amanaplanacanalpanama" is a palindrome.
Example 2:
Input: s = "race a car" Output: false Explanation: "raceacar" is not a palindrome..
capCount.py
make a program called capCount.py that has a function that takes in a string and prints the number of capital letters in the first line, then prints the sum of their indices in the second line.
The string "hEllo, World" would should look like this:

You may assume that the input contains only letters and blanks and is at most 80 characters long. Include a loop that allows the user to check additional strings until she or he requests that the program end.

We'll do that type of checking later.Your program must use a string data type to store the poll description and a Python list data type to save the integer responses of the 5 user responses.Your output should list all the responses stored in the list, the highest given response, the lowest given response and the average of the 5 responses.
