''' You are so close! :) I think something like this is what you want? ''' ### x=input() def words(): print(x.split()) words()

There are some other ways to do this, but remember your indentation, especially for functions. The "def" means you are creating or "defining" a new word in the Python language, so all the lines of code that are indented below the "def" belong to that new word. Then, you have to use the new word, or "call" it. So here, we defined "words()" and it takes an input, splits it, puts it in a list and then prints it. However, if we never called "words()" like we do on the last line, it will not perform any action

Yeah generators are a bit different, they yield results. Generators produce generator objects which require iteration through the use of the "next()" command. The word yield comes from an old program design, where the program would stop using resources, it would yield the processor back to the computer. So generators are very efficient at handling resources. Does something like this help? ### x=input() # hello foo bar world def words(): for each in x.split(): yield each word=words() print(next(word)) # hello print(next(word)) # foo print(next(word)) # bar print(next(word)) # world

i think the exercise wants me to use yield, but i don't know how to use it, or maybe i just don't know how to create a function to separate a sentence and create a list
