First Word

First Word

You might see a simplified version of this mission already First Word (simplified). This mission is a little bit more complex as not only English letters can be in the given string.

You are given a string where you have to find its first word.

When solving a task pay attention to the following points:

  • There can be dots and commas in a string.
  • A string can start with a letter or, for example, one/multiple dot(s) or space(s).
  • A word can contain an apostrophe and it's a part of a word.
  • The whole text can be represented with one word and that's it.

example

Input: A string (str).

Output: A string (str).

Examples:

assert first_word("Hello world") == "Hello"
assert first_word(" a word ") == "a"
assert first_word("don't touch it") == "don't"
assert first_word("greetings, friends") == "greetings"

How it is used: the first word is a command in a command line

Precondition: the text can contain a-z A-Z , . '

(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
