Task 1:

Objectives

improving the student's skills in operating with strings;

using built-in Python string methods.

Scenario

Study the built-in Python function split()works and prove that you understand it. Your task is to write your own function, which behaves almost exactly like the original split()method, i.e.:

it should accept exactly one string argument;

it should return a list of words created from the string, divided in the places where the string contains whitespaces;

if the string is empty, the function should return an empty list;

its name should be mysplit()

Test

print(mysplit("To be or not to be, that is the question"))

print(mysplit("To be or not to be,that is the question"))

print(mysplit(""))

print(mysplit(" abc "))

print(mysplit(""))

Expected output

['To', 'be', 'or', 'not', 'to', 'be,', 'that', 'is', 'the', 'question']

['To', 'be', 'or', 'not', 'to', 'be,that', 'is', 'the', 'question']

[]

['abc']
