# --description--
|
|
|
|
Given a sentence, return the longest word in the sentence.
|
|
|
|
- Ignore periods (`.`) when determining word length.
|
|
- If multiple words are ties for the longest, return the first one that occurs.
|
|
|
|
# --hints--
|
|
|
|
`get_longest_word("coding is fun")` should return `"coding"`.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
({test: () => { runPython(`
|
|
from unittest import TestCase
|
|
TestCase().assertEqual(get_longest_word("coding is fun"), "coding")`)
|
|
}})
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`get_longest_word("Coding challenges are fun and educational.")` should return `"educational"`.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
({test: () => { runPython(`
|
|
from unittest import TestCase
|
|
TestCase().assertEqual(get_longest_word("Coding challenges are fun and educational."), "educational")`)
|
|
}})
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`get_longest_word("This sentence has multiple long words.")` should return `"sentence"`.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
({test: () => { runPython(`
|
|
from unittest import TestCase
|
|
TestCase().assertEqual(get_longest_word("This sentence has multiple long words."), "sentence")`)
|
