Second - universal solution in Clear category for Correct Sentence by maxnrg
"""Correct Sentence
For the input of your function, you will be given one sentence.
You have to return a corrected version, that starts with a capital letter and ends with a period (dot).
Pay attention to the fact that not all of the fixes are necessary.
If a sentence already ends with a period (dot), then adding another one will be a mistake.
Example:
correct_sentence("greetings, friends") == "Greetings, friends."
correct_sentence("Greetings, friends") == "Greetings, friends."
correct_sentence("Greetings, friends.") == "Greetings, friends."
Precondition: No leading and trailing spaces, text contains only spaces, a-z A-Z , and .
"""
# v2 - universal
def correct_sentence(text: str) -> str:
"""
returns a corrected sentence which starts with a capital letter
and ends with a dot.
"""
return f'{text[:1].upper()}{text[1:] if text[-1] in ".!?" else text[1:] + "."}'
