I need some help for the Code Coach Jungle Camping

Question

I am a beginner in Python and I can't find the right syntax for this exercise
Could someone refer me please?

Answer 1

I solved this one by importing the input string (containing the different animal sounds) into a list with noises.split(). After that, I used if statements to match noises to animals.

Answer 2

Thank you for your help.

Answer 3

I tried this but it doesn't work.

animal = {"Grr" : "Lion", "Rawr" : "Tiger" , "Sss" : "Snake", "Chirp" : "Bird"}

noise = list(str(input().split()))

if "Grr" in noise:
print(animal["Grr"])
if "Rawr" in noise:
print(animal["Rawr"])
if "Sss" in noise:
print(animal["Sss"])
if "Chirp" in noise:
print(animal["Chirp"])

Answer 4

When things don’t work, try trouble shooting by printing the results from each step. For example, if you do print(noise) after creating the list, you will get

['[', "'", 'R', 'a', 'w', 'r', "'", ',', ' ', "'", 'C', 'h', 'i', 'r', 'p', "'", ',', ' ', "'", 'S', 's', 's', 's', "'", ']']

It looks like your list is splitting each character as it gets added to the input string. Maybe you need to collect the input first, then split the whole string?
