ON splitting lesson in python, I have the right output but with extras added.

Question

On the splitting lesson in python I am told to create a program that outputs the last thing in a input list.
x = input()
elements = x.split()
#ENTER CODE HERE

x = elements[::-1]
y = x[0:1]
print(y)

Problem is when I use the code its the right answer but apparently it's looking the answer without the [' '] surrounding it. Is there a way to remove it?

Answer 1

hmm...I guess for loop.

Answer 2

If you don't mind me asking what's the difference between your code and mine. Mine is just the longer way to the answer correct? What part of my code adds the [' '] around the numbers?

Answer 3

Thank you so much for your help.
