Average lenght of word in a sentence

Answer 1

on another note, while this exercise only requires removing the question mark, here's a better alternative for removing non-alphabet characters:

import string

alphabet = string.ascii_lowercase + " "
sentence = input().strip()
new = ""

for char in sentence:
if char in alphabet:
new += char

Tysm for guiding me in this problem

Answer 3

just read the error message given when trying to run your code. it clearly states you're trying to divide (/) a list by an integer which obviously doesn't work. the reason is that you have mismatched parentheses in line 11. here's the correct version:

average=sum(len(word) for word in words) / len(words)

for the future, try to Google the error messages you get on runtime. eventually, you'll understand them yourself right away.
note that the code will run after changing this but it won't solve the challenge still. you can try to go from there or take a look at my code:

from math import ceil

sentence = input().replace("?", "")
words = sentence.strip().split()
chars = 0

for word in words:
chars += len(word)

average = ceil(chars / len(words))

print(int(average))
