How to solve the Book Titles in python??

Question

Tried a lot bud didn't succeeded.
Here's the code I tried -
file = open("/usercode/files/books.txt", "r")
data = file.readlines()
amount1 = file.write(data[0][0])
amount2 = file.write(data[1][0])
amount3 = file.write(data[2][0])
amount4 = file.write(data[3][0])
print(data[0][0] + str(amount1))
print(data[1][0] + str(amount2))
print(data[2][0] + str(amount3))
print(data[3][0] + str(amount4))
file.close()

Answer 1

Here is the answer i guess it's pretty clear

file = open("/usercode/files/books.txt", "r")
titles = file.readlines()
for i in titles:
if '\n' in i:
print(i[0] + str(len(i) - 1))
else:
print(i[0] + str(len(i)))

file.close()

Answer 2

file = open("/usercode/files/books.txt", "r")
list = file.readlines()
for i in list:
i = i.replace("\n","")
print (i[:1]+str(len(i)))
file.close()

Answer 6

A more compact solution.
file = open("/usercode/files/books.txt", "r")
for i in file.readlines():
print(i[0]+str(len(i)-1)) if "\n" in i else print(i[0]+str(len(i)))
file.close()

Answer 7

file = open("/usercode/files/books.txt", "r")
for line in file:
if '\n' in line:

else:

file.close()

Answer 8

if anyone is looking at this post today in my opinion one of the simplest solutions would be:

file = open("/usercode/files/books.txt", "r")

#your code goes here
for x in file:
book = x[0] + str(len(x.strip("\n")))
print(book)

file.close()

Answer 10

Thank you so much! I have been taking notes all this time. I wouldn't have been able to figure it out on my own.

Answer 11

Turns out, all I needed was that "\n". :)
That little detail kept me up all night.
Thanks a bunch

Answer 12

Thanks Lemesa. I appreciate your advice. Your tips will be very useful for me as a beginner and for someone who wants to learn python. I am also currently studying at the university and writing research on EU law. At https://writix.co.uk/essay-examples/supremacy-of-eu-law I found very useful information about EU law in general and its supremacy.

Answer 13

This is my answer for this :
for i in range(len(a)):
x=len(a[i])
if "\n" in a[i]:
x -=1
x=str(x)

print(a[i][0] + x)
i+=1
