How to take multiple inputs in python?

Question

Suppose we want user to input some 9 values of string or number, then it's quite difficult to add input function for each time, so in this case how slcan we specify a range like, askimg user to input 5 no.s/strings?

Answer 1

txt = input("Enter 5 names separated by space")

names = txt.split()

print(names)

INPUT:
Preity Harshita Rohit Diljit Roshni

Answer 2

a=[input() for i in range(9)]
print(a)
#more elegant and user friendly version:
a = [input(str(i+1)+": ") for i in range(9)]
print(a)

Answer 3

Thanks...
