Not really a question but are you wondering about the verb/say function name bit?

Question

Yeah, me too. I think it's definitely calling say(noun) and not verb(noun)

def get_input():
command = input(": ").split()
verb_word = command[0]
if verb_word in verb_dict:
verb = verb_dict[verb_word]
else:
print("Unknown verb {}". format(verb_word))
return

if len(command) >= 2:
noun_word = command[1]
print (verb(noun_word))
else:
print(verb("nothing"))

def say(noun):
return 'You said "{}"'.format(noun)

verb_dict = {
"say": say,
}

while True:
get_input()

Answer 1

Oh Yeah! Thanks!

Answer 2

def get_input():

command = input("Enter ").split() # input is split up into two words and assigned into command
verb_word = command[0] # the first word in [command] is assigned to verb_word
if verb_word in verb_dict: # check if the first word inputted is in the dictionary verb_dict
verb = verb_dict[verb_word] # when true the corresponding value of the dictonary is assigned to the variable verb
else:
print("Unknown verb {}".format(verb_word)) # when false this line is printed
return

if len(command) >= 2: # check if the length of the input is larger or equal to two characters
noun_word = command[1] # when true the second inputted word is assigned to the variable noun_word
print(verb(noun_word)) # when true ( verb == say) the function say is called with the passed argument noun_word
else:
print(verb("nothing")) # when false "nothing" is printed out , when the second word is missing

def say(noun):
return 'You said "{}"'.format(noun)

verb_dict = {"say": say,}

while True:
get_input()
