Python program to find longest word from file.

Write a python program to find longest word from text file with Practical Example

Program Logic:

• Open text file say ‘name.txt’ in read mode using open function
• Pass file name and access mode to open function
• Read the whole content of text file using read function and store it in another variable say ‘str’
• Use split function on str object and store words in variable say ‘words’
• Find maximum word from words using len method
• Iterate through word by word using for loop
• Use if loop within for loop to check the maximum length of word
• Store maximum length of word in variable say ‘longest_word’
• Display longst_word using print function

Below is implementation code/Source code

fin = open("name.txt","r")
str = fin.read()
words = str.split()
max_len = len(max(words, key=len))
for word in words:
    if len(word)==max_len:
        longest_word =word
        
print(longest_word)
