Hello I'm trying to write a program that check if a sentence is a palindrome.. But it's not working ...

How do i let the computer ignore spaces and commas between a sentence so it can check if a sentence is a palindrome..e.g...dennis and edna sinned... Mind you i'm using python ans you can check out the code below https://code.sololearn.com/cN5X5yyOOQ9U/?ref=app

tobi emma Oladele you can also do this in just one line. m=''.join([i for i in x if i.isalpha() or i.isdigit()]) x=m
