Here's a possible solution: a = input().split() b = max([len(x) for x in a]) [print(x) for x in a if len(x) == b] # Hope this helps

Ritesh Behera , ▪︎here is an other possible solution. it splits the input to a list, then these list is sorted with length of the words as key: res = input().split() print(sorted(res,key=len)[-1]) ▪︎an other (more simple) solution by using max could be: a = input().split() print(max(a, key = len)) max has an optional parameter "key" that can be used.
