Answer 1

Because of the comma in the print statement.

You need to convert len into string using str()
line[0] + str(len(line)-1)

Answer 2

Post your code here

Answer 3

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

#your code goes here

for line in file:

print(line[0],(len(line)-1))

file.close()

Answer 4

visph For you to count chars excluding an eventual newline, I recommend rstrip:

n = len(line.rstrip())

Answer 5

print(line[0] + (len(line)-1)) #commas add whiespace

Which error? Unfortunately I can't find the challenge but I am sure that I solved it this way.

Would be fine if you can share the challenge link.

Answer 8

akshay atugade each lines ends with a new line char except the last one, and you are requested to output first letter followed by full title length (excluding the last new line char)...

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

for line in file:
n = len(line)-str(line[-1]=="\n")
print(line[0]+str(n))

file.close()
