i Need help with python BOOK TITLES

Question

I am just starting out in puthon and I am stuck on the BOOK TITLES problem. I have used he FOR loop to iterate threw each line but I cannot get them to concatenate. I can get it to print out all the numbers of each byte in each seperate line, or i can get it to print the full book titles. But I cannot get it to print the first char. And then the reamining number of bytes in the sentence, except for the /n at the end of each line....
I need it to print the first character of each line and then the rest will be only bytes excluding the end line characters. I need a result of book titles that look like this ..this is input ==Happy Birthday .
This is input==Alvin and the chipmunks
I need output of......H14
A23
I am almost there but just need a little advice on what I should do. Please. Thanks for any advice. But please don’t give just the answer.

Answer 1

A simpler way with 5 lines of code.

A simple explanation, loop through all lines, and if a line has trailing/ending "\n" remove it from the count of the length.
