'''* this part is using scripts (modules) in idle'''

'''Note''': Python uses intendation! Each : is followed by a hard return + 4 spaces (a tab). Wikipedia is not tab friendly. You can see them in the edit-section of this page. If you forget to use them, you'll get a syntax error.

'''# REMIX SONG using STRING, LIST and FOR, IN, IF, WHILE''' 

(#) Prince, Purple Rain (using a hashtag = making a comment)

song = ( 

“I never meant to cause you any sorrow\n”

“I never meant to cause you any pain\n”

“I only wanted to one time to see you laughing\n”

“I only wanted to see you\n”

“Laughing in the purple rain.”

) 


'''* transform string in list of words'''

song = song.split() 


'''* double all words of list and print again as song'''

remix1 = [word*2 for word in song] 

print(" ".join(remix1)) 

remix1 = remix1[:16]

print(" ".join(remix1)) 


'''* FOR, IN, IF'''

'''** rewrite the song with the words that count more than 4 letters''' 

remix2 = [word for word in song if len(word) <= 4]
 
remix2 = "°*@".join(remix2)

print(remix2)


'''** transform all letters of song in lowercaps'''

remix2 = remix2.lower()


'''** Capitalize the song and end with a dot // Hèhè, a new sentence!''' 

print(remix2.capitalize() + ".")


'''** print a list of words of the song + next to each word its length'''

for word in song: 

	print(word, len(word)) 


'''** print a list of words of the song + next to each word its position in the sentence'''

for position in range(len(song)): 

	print position, song[position] 


'''** rewrite song by copying words with r to the beginning of the song'''

for word in song[:]:  # Loop over a copy of the list 

	if "r" in word: 

		song.insert(0, word) 

print("\n".join(song))


'''** create an [http://oulipo.net/fr/contraintes/anaerobie Anaerobe] of the song (remove all r's)''' 

song = [woord.replace("r","") if "r" in word else word for word in song] 

print(song) 

song = " \n".join(song) 


** Exercise: remove letter 't' and rewrite song using capitals, comma's and hard returns 



'''* WHILE''' 

A while loop statement in Python programming language repeatedly executes a target statement as long as a given condition is true. The risk of using 'while' is the possibility of triggering infinite loops.

'''* Print your song 9 times'''

amount = 0 

while (amount < 10): 

	print(song)

	amount = amount + 1 

else: 

	print("Python can be a printing factory!")


'''* The reader can decide how many times she would like to see the song'''

nbr = raw_input("Give a number  :") 

amount = 0 

while (amount < 5): 

	print(song)
 
	amount = amount + 1 

else: 

	print("Python can be a printing factory!")


'''* write your text to a file'''

with open('song.txt', 'a') as f:

	f.write("title song" + "\n" + song)
