What's wrong in my code?-Pig Latin

I'm working this problem, and I think I did everything right. But I get 3/5. # As a remainder, the Pig Lating problem is that: you are given a sentence, and you have to to change every word to: you place the first letter in the end of the word, and add "ay" at the end. And Here's the code: inp= input() pig_lang=[] word= inp.split() for i in range(len(word)): list_word= word[i].replace(word[i][0], "") k= str(list_word) + str(word[i][0]) +"ay" pig_lang.append(k) print(" ".join(pig_lang))

Zetra_coder the code is set to Private. I usually make my codes Public but since this is the answer to a Code Coach question which is worth XP, it's probably better not to broadcast it 🙂

replace: list_word= word[i].replace(word[i][0], "") with: list_word= word[i][1:] this will take everything but the first letter, rather than replacing it with an empty character.

When you invoke word[i][0] the second time, you have destroyed the first letter previously, so what you're getting is the initial second letter.

David Ashton Very simplified code!! I have a question: when I enter in your link, I can't comment. And also the code isn't in your profile. How do you do that?

You can try: str=input().split( ) for i,x in enumerate(str): str[i]=x[1:]+x[0]+"ay" print(" ".join(str))

I'm late to the party but here's my 1 line solution. print(" ".join([w[1:len(w)] + w[0] + "ay" for w in input().split()]))
