I'm writing a program that has the user input their name, then converts their name to a "numeric value" (basically, take the ASCII value of all of the characters and add them together).
I think I know just about everything I need to write my program, except for one thing:
Since spaces count as 32, I would like to eliminate them from the inputted string. My first guess was to just string.split and then concatenate the two split strings, but I don't know what the two split strings would be called.
Any tips?

Maybe this will help: - >>> name = 'Donald Smith'
-
>>> name.replace(" ", "")
-
'DonaldSmith'

To use the str.split() function: -
name = "Donald Smith"
-
name = "".join(name.split())
-
print name
-
Thank you both for the quick reply and informative answers!

I've a simple question. Why the following:
words = "123#@$#$@^% wordB#@$".split('~`!@#$%^&*()_+-={},./')
doesn't work? The length of the result vector is 1.

Good afternoon all,
Question about list assignment in perl...
Given a piece of code that looks kinda like this for parsing some '|' delimited input text lines :

Here's the hard part: There are differing programs that read from the same conf file that take data stream and split it, but at some point in the future I may need to expand the variables split to. I would like to basically put...

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
