print 'You've entered', len(s.split()), 'words.' BTW, though newbie questions are quite welcome here, you might find it beneficial to run through the Python tutorial (at http://docs.python.org/tut/tut.html and included in the standard distribution), and to join the tutor mailing list (at http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor/). -- Cheers, Simon B, [EMAIL PROTECTED], http://www.brunningonline.net/simon/blog/ -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
