Not easily while processing the input one at a time. You can, however, read one line of input and then split it: s = input() bits = s.split() if len(bits) != 8: what_now("?") else: for bit in bits: do_something(bit) You could make it a bit more robust with something like: answers = [] while len(answers) < 8: s = input() answers.append(s.split()) del answers[8:] # we only want 8, so throw away extras for answer in answers: do_something(answer) which would at least ensure that you have 8 entries. -tkc -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
