''' Purpose: demonstrate the printing of a list of words, one word per line
'''

# get list of words
reply = input( "Enter several words: " )

words = reply.split()    # split reply into a list of words
print( 'words =', words )
### print the words word by word
# we don't know how many words there are --> loop

# IMPORTANT!! PLEASE REVIEW THIS!!
# here our sequence is a LIST of words. Let words = [ 'word1', 'word2' ]
# so our loop_variable ( w = stands for word ) will represent each WORD, NOT each character
#   what the loop variable represents depends on the TYPE OF SEQUENCE --> 3 kinds of for loops you have now learned
#       if sequence is a string, the loop variable represents each character in that string
#       if sequence is a list, the loop variable represents each element (separated by ,) in that list
#       if sequence is a range of numbers, the loop variable represents each number in the range
#   also loop variable can be named anything

# words is NOT a string --> it's a LIST = sequence of THINGS
# if sequence is a list, the loop variable takes on each of the THINGS one by one
for w in words:
    # w is the current word; will go through each word inside the list of words
    # 1st time: w = 'word1'
    # 2nd time: w = 'word2'
    print( w )
