I'm trying to create a program where the user inputs a list of strings, each one in a separate line. I want to be able to be able to return, for example, the third word in the second line. The input below would then return "blue".
input_string("""The cat in the hat
Red fish blue fish """)
Currently I have this:
def input_string(input):
words = input.split('\n')
So I can output a certain line using words[n], but how do output a specific word in a specific line? I've been trying to implement being able to type words[1][2] but my attempts at creating a multidimensional array have failed.
I've been trying to split each words[n] for a few hours now and google hasn't helped. I apologize if this is completely obvious, but I just started using Python a few days ago and am completely stuck.
