No numerals, easier way to solve it on Python?

I solved the No numerals problem, but i know that there must be a better way to solve it: I solved it replacing each number in one line each one... f=input() ften=f.replace("10","ten") f1=ften.replace("1","one") f2=f1.replace("2","two") f3=f2.replace("3","three") f4=f3.replace("4","four") f5=f4.replace("5","five") f6=f5.replace("6","six") f7=f6.replace("7","seven") f8=f7.replace("8","eight") f9=f8.replace("9","nine") f0=f9.replace("0","zero") print(f0) but how i can do it better?

x = input() dic = { "10": "ten", "0": "zero", "1": "one", "2": "two", "3": "three", "4": "four", "5": "five", "6": "six", "7": "seven", "8": "eight", "9": "nine", } for key, value in dic.items(): x = x.replace(key, value) print(x)

Funny. I did it about like that and passed anyway, although Kitten must be right.

For what is required it's a good solution. For a slightly neater way, I first defined a dictionary with all numbers in it as keys and all names of numbers in it as values. I also defined a string '0123456789' Then iterated through the input finding elements that are in the string of numbers and replacing them with their corresponding value in the dictionary. Make sure to replace '10' with 'ten' before this for loop though. Side note, I first used: for i in range(len(input)): and iterated over with input[i], but this didn't finish the job as the length of the string was longer by the end so it never reached the last digit/s Make use of: for i in input:...

All numbers? They are infinite :P And what happens with the 10, 11, ...?

David Martínez I only did 0-10 as the question asked, I’m sure there would be a way to extend this. Maybe check: if input[i+1] in string and then change to the tens word for that number. And if you go from the end of the string backwards I think is would be easier to implement

David Martínez, if you make sure that 10 is replaced *first*, after that transformation only genuine 1s remain.

You can replace the 10 separately and then write a loop for the rest. This was my version: inp=input().replace('10', 'ten') for a, b in zip( (str(i) for i in range(10)), 'zero one two three four five six seven eight nine'.split()): inp = inp.replace(a, b) print(inp)

No, the task description says that we aren't supposed to touch everything beyond ten.

Hi Guys. Nice debate.... Why bother with a for loop when you have a dict ready to call the values. A string input was the request. Dict = {'1': 'one', '2': 'two', Etc, '10': 'ten', } If the input refers directly to the key of the dictionary, you can print out the value

y = input().split() nums=list('123456789')+['10'] for x in range(len(y)): if y[x] in nums: y[x] = y[x].replace('1','one') y[x] = y[x].replace('2','two') y[x] = y[x].replace('3','three') y[x] = y[x].replace('4','four') y[x] = y[x].replace('5','five') y[x] = y[x].replace('6','six') y[x] = y[x].replace('7','seven') y[x] = y[x].replace('8','eight') y[x] = y[x].replace('9','nine') print(' '.join(y))

Guys why don't u make a translator I made this it had one problem replacing 10 but thanks to Honfu Suggestion it is solved check this code import re numwords = ["zero","one","two","three","four","five","six","seven","eight","nine","ten"] le = input().replace("10",numwords[10]) def convertor(phrase): translated = "" for letter in phrase: if letter in "0123456789" : translated += numwords[int(letter)] else: translated += letter else: translated.replace("onezero",str(numwords[10])) return translated print(convertor(le))

My solution: sentence = input() import re if re.search("10", sentence): sentence = re.sub(r"\b10\b","ten", sentence) if re.search("1", sentence): sentence = re.sub(r"\b1\b","one", sentence) if re.search("2", sentence): sentence = re.sub(r"\b2\b","two", sentence) if re.search("3", sentence): sentence = re.sub(r"\b3\b","three", sentence) if re.search("4", sentence): sentence = re.sub(r"\b(4)\b","four", sentence) if re.search("5", sentence): sentence = re.sub(r"\b(5)\b","five", sentence) if re.search("6", sentence): sentence = re.sub(r"\b(6)\b","six", sentence) if re.search("7", sentence): sentence = re.sub(r"\b(7)\b","seven", sentence) if re.search("8", sentence): sentence = re.sub(r"\b(8)\b","eight", sentence) if re.search("9", sentence): sentence = re.sub(r"\b(9)\b","nine", sentence) print(sentence) Please tell me what are thinking about my solution.

I think to replace 0 to 10 we should do it with list arr = ['zero','one','two','three','four','five','six','seven','eight','nine','ten'] st = input() for i in range(11)[::-1]: st = st.replace(str(i),arr[i]) print(st)

What's wrong with my code I can't pass the 3rd test case string_1 = input() string = string_1.split() no = "1234567890" extract_index = [] act_no = [] for i in string: if i in no: act_no += i no_index = string.index(i) extract_index.append(no_index) dict = {'1': "one", '2': "two", '3': "three", '4': "four", '5': "five", '6': "six", '7': "seven", '8': "eight", '9':"nine", '0': "zero",'10':"ten"} for i in range(len(act_no)): string[extract_index[i]] = dict.get(act_no[i]) for i in string: print(i,end=" ")

I made this option txt=list(input().replace("10","ten")) new_txt="" num_dict={ 0:"Zero", 1:"one", 2:"two", 3:"three", 4:"four", 5:"five", 6:"six", 7:"seven", 8:"eight", 9:"nine" } for i in txt: try: new_txt+=num_dict.get(int(i)) except ValueError: new_txt+=i print(new_txt) I don't know why I did int in dictionary
