how I can change whitespaces between words of a string in print order?

Question

i was writing a code to input a sentence of user then change its whitespaces to … and print the sentence.

hi rocks
I intended to input a sentence and change its whitespaces to "…"
I wrote this code:

    a=input("inter your sentence: ")
    #split in to n str
    #print every str with ... as whitespace
    a=a.split()
    for x in a:
        print(x, sep='...',end="")

if I input this is a test, i expected to see

this…is…a…test

but it doesn’t work
it gives me

"thisisatest

Answer 1

str.replace can be used to replace one or multiple characters of same ASCII value to another. In your case, it would be:

a=input("inter your sentence: ")
a=a.replace(' ', '...')
print(a)

do this.

a=input("inter your sentence: ")
#split in to n str
#print every str with ... as whitespace
a=a.split()
print(*a, sep='...')

Or do this.

a=input("inter your sentence: ")
#split in to n str
#print every str with ... as whitespace
a=a.split()
final_a = '...'.join(a)
print(final_a)

OUTPUT (for input this is a test)

this...is...a...test

Replying OP’s comment. "so what you think about this one for x in range(0,10): print (x ,sep='...', end="") it didn't work too"

for x in range(0,10):
    print(x ,sep='...', end="")

Note: sep seprate args provide in print method, Default sep=" "
Example:

print("one","1", sep="-->")
# Output: one-->1

And end: When every args print in terminal then print see the end value and print it in terminal. Default end="n" n → newline

Example:

for a in range(0, 10):
    print(a, end=".|.")

#Output= 0.|.1.|.2.|.3.|.4.|.5.|.6.|.7.|.8.|.9.|. 

# Here when 0 prints then print method also print `end`'s value after that, and 1 then `end`'s value and so on.

Answer for your comment’s question can be this.

for x in range(0,10):
    print(x,end='...')

Output

As I say end‘s value print after every print method args print, so '...' also prints after x last value(9).

0...1...2...3...4...5...6...7...8...9...

You can make use of the Python join and split functions in this case:

The code snippet:

inputSentence = input("Enter your sentence: ")

print("...".join(inputSentence.split()))

The output:

Enter your sentence: This is a test

This...is...a...test
