user_input = st.text_input("Please enter the word")
if len(user_input.split()) > 1:
st.write("please enter one word only:")
else:
test = user_input
k = mainp(test)
The mainp is the function which process the word, but it run that function, since it run the function with out having the input it throws the error.
The function still work if I enter the word , if I comment the section where i am calling the function it will not show any error,
what i am missing?
user_input = st.text_input("Please enter the word")
From the start, the value of user_input from the code above is an empty character or string “”.
if len(user_input.split()) > 1:
That code checks if empty char converted to a list, the number of elements is more than 1.
Let’s calculate.
num_elem = len("".split())
# num_elem = 0
if num_elem > 1:
st.write("please enter one word only:")
else:
# since num_elem is 0, the code below will be executed.
test = user_input
k = mainp(test)
So the mainp() is run because num_elem is not more than 1. It is zero.
Workaround
import streamlit as st
def mainp(input_):
st.write(f'mainp: got {input_}')
user_input = st.text_input("Please enter the word")
# if len(user_input.split()) > 1:
# st.write("please enter one word only:")
# else:
# test = user_input
# k = mainp(test)
if len(user_input.split()) == 1:
test = user_input
k = mainp(test)
else:
st.write("please enter one word only:")
Oh thank you much , it was so absurd of me to not see that flaw in my logic of checking word lenght, it works now perfectly , thankyou for the assitance really appreciated
