Select elements of list based on number of characters

Question

Print the elements whose array length is greater than or equal to 4, such as

things = ['jump','hop','skip','tip',leap']

Answer 1

I would advice you to come up with the answer for this yourself. Some hints are :

1. Use a 'for' loop to iterate through each element of the list LINK Example:

fruits = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]

for x in fruits:
 print(x)

2. Within the loop, use len() to check the length of each element of the list. Example:

 if len(element1) >=4: 
    do something

Full code as below

fruits = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]

for x in fruits:
 if len(x) >=4: 
   print(x)

Answer 2

You can check the element lenght is greater than four then you can add them into the desired list

new_elements =[element for element in things if len(element)>=4]
print(new_elements)
