Answer 1

Майкл Дориан To print the bigger word, put this in the body of the while

while c < len(a):
b = len(a[c])
if b > n:
n = b
cm = c
c += 1

Answer 2

txt = "Sololearn is cool platform"
words = txt.split()
for a in words:
print(a)

Easy way to access each word from the list of words.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
[Longest word in the list of words]
txt = input() or "Sololearn is cool"

words = txt.split()
longest = ""
for word in words:
if len(word) > len(longest):
longest = word
print("longest word is", longest, "with length of", len(longest))

Answer 3

c<len(a) instead of c<=len(a).

if you do c<=len(a) you are checking for value at index 2 as well if for example the input is "hello world".

Answer 4

Майкл Дориан replace while c <= len(a): with while c < len(a):

I want to get the longest word in a sentence
