Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

The following code is written in Python. It is a loop that asks the user for an input. If it contains a comma then it removes whitespace, splits it into two words, and prints each word seperately, and exits the loop. If it does not contain a comma then it prompts the user for another input.

while True:

   string = input("Enter input string: ")

   if ',' in string:

       string = string.replace(" ", '')

       string_split = string.split(',')

       print("First word: " + string_split[0])

       print("Second word: " + string_split[1])

       break
