Calculating average word length

Question

text = input()
sum = 0
for i in text :
sum += 1
x = text.split ()
z = len (x)
m = sum / z
print (m)

Please someone help debug this code for finding average word length

Answer 1

Check for the maximum value after you're converting it to the array.

Answer 2

Ismael Wesa the problem is that you're counting spaces and punctuation in sum.

Answer 3

Try this:
m= x/2
print(m)

Instead of:
m= sum/2
print (m)
