what code is needed to separate the enter key from all other inputs?

im working on a code where i want to make it where if the user hits enter rather then the input asked for it comments for that and says a separate comment for the input asked for. Please someone help. i am coding im python 3. In the code there is one input with 2 different statements. when the code asks for the input if you only hit enter to proceed with the rest of the code i am wanting it to print one statement then loop back to the input but if you do type the input asked for, it responds with the 2nd statement.

have you tried just checking if the input is blank? name=input("Enter Name: ") If name="": print("You entered Nothing") If name="Arketa": print("Hello {}".format(name))

I think your question is understandable!! here is my guess, while True: name=raw_input("Enter your Name: ") if len(name)<=0: print("Name should not be blank!") else: print("Your Name is: ",name) break

#This may help: def input_holder(): while True: try: yield input() except: break data = list( input_holder() ) print(data) #In sololearn or other IDE that take inputs from a file, the while loop will break due to an EOFError. #In other IDEs, you can use KeyboardInterrupt (ctrl+c) to end the while loop after you finish typing all of the inputs.

the way the code is you have to input something... whether it be enter or the input asked for.

My another guessing about your question, You need user input for many lines, and you need to separate each input with enter! for this you may need, "fileinput" module
