a way to select single words in a long text in python

One way to select single words in a long text in python is to split the text into words using the split() method, which returns a list of words. You can then iterate over the list to perform any desired operations on each individual word. Here is an example:

main.py
long_text = "This is a long text with many words."
words_list = long_text.split()
for word in words_list:
    print(word)
122 chars
5 lines

Output:

main.py
This
is
a
long
text
with
many
words.
37 chars
9 lines

Alternatively, if you only need to select a specific word from a long text, you can use indexing to select the word at a particular position in the list:

main.py
long_text = "This is a long text with many words."
words_list = long_text.split()
selected_word = words_list[2]
print(selected_word) # Output: a
145 chars
5 lines

In this example, words_list[2] returns the third word in the list (counting from 0), which is "a".
