Question

Instructions

My six year-old daughter LOVES to read. However, she is still learning and so she can only handle words of a certain length. She also loves to count, but big numbers are not her strength! Help her out!

You are going to read in a word. After you find the length of the word, you will output how long it is, unless it is "too big". If the word is more than 10 characters long, you will simply output the phrase "TOO BIG!"

Hint: You are going to need to the  len() the  str() functions and also make a decision!  Remember (from practicum today!) that you can not concatenate a string with an integer. You must first convert the integer into a string by using the str() function.

Details

Input

The program takes in the following input:

• word: an string

Processing

• Find the length of the string word

• Make a decision based on the length of the word and handle output based on this, as defined below.

Output

• For words of length up to 10 characters, output:

     The length of the word is {Length of the word}.

• Otherwise, output:

     TOO BIG!

Sample input/output:

Input	Output
pumpkin	The length of the word is 7.
apple	The length of the word is 6.
lexicographical	TOO BIG!
pie	The length of the word is 3.
sesquipedalian	TOO BIG!
Haligonian	The length of the word is 10.
Haligonians	TOO BIG!

===========================================================================

word = input('Enter a string: ') # prompt user to enter the word
word_length = str(len(word)) # find the length using len() function and then convert it to string

# check the length is less than equal to 10 
if len(word)<=10: # if true print the message
    print('The length of the word is {}.'.format(word_length))
else:
    print('TOO BIG!') # the word length is more than 10 so print too big
