What Does the Cow Say?
Lets cow say!
Our cow is young and can only say some of the words we teach it. Not only does it talk, but this cow can turn into the famous Tux ( wiki/Cowsay ) if we ask it nicely.
- The cow is always the same, only quote changes.
- Multiple spaces in a row are replaced by one space.
- The top border consists of underscore characters. It starts from a single space and ends before the border column.
- Each line of the quote consists of these parts: quote border(1), space(1), line(1-39), space(1), quote border(1).
- If line is less than 40 characters, it will fit into one string. The string is quoted in <> .
-
If the line is greater than or equal to 40 characters, it should be split by these rules:
- Max line size is 39 chars. If any spaces are in the line, split it by the rightmost space (this space is removed from text)...
- Middle line borders: ||
- Last line borders: \/

What does the cow say?
Input: Text as a string.
Output: The result for the console as a string.
Hint: Read python docs ( 2.7 , 3.3 ) about formatting styles (str.format and %). Notice for r before the string. It is a raw string and they use different rules for interpreting backslash escape sequences.
Example:
cowsay('Checkio rulezz') == r'''
________________
< Checkio rulezz >

How it is used: The original Cowsays are written in the Perl programming language, and as such are easily adaptable to system tasks in Unix. They can perform functions such as telling users their home directories are full, that they have new mail, etc. Now you will write your own realisation for this classic unix program. This concept can teach you how to prepare and format text for the console output.
Precondition:
0 < len(text) < 858;
text
can't consist of spaces only;
text
contains only ASCII letters, digits and punctuation.
CheckiO Extensions allow you to use local files to solve missions. More info in a blog post.
In order to install CheckiO client you'll need installed Python (version at least 3.8)
Install CheckiO Client first:
pip3 install checkio_client
Configure your tool
checkio --domain=py config --key=
Sync solutions into your local folder
checkio sync
(in beta testing) Launch local server so your browser can use it and sync solution between local file end extension on the fly. (doesn't work for safari)
checkio serv -d
Alternatevly, you can install Chrome extension or FF addon
checkio install-plugin
checkio install-plugin --ff
checkio install-plugin --chromium
Read more here about other functionality that the checkio client provides. Feel free to submit an issue in case of any difficulties.
