I'd like to be able to take a list of items (no longer than 100) and add a searchable character count to the end. Preferably would be able to arrange them in a shortest -> longest format (or vice versa)

For example a list like:

The Beatles

Aerosmith

Led Zeppelin

The Rolling Stones

Would translate to:

Aerosmith (9)

The Beatles (3, 7)

The Rolling Stones (3, 7, 6)

Led Zeppelin (3, 8)

I'm not sure the best way to accomplish this but would be willing to pay fgs if someone can help. Thanks!

I gave it a shot, not sure what exactly you meant by 'searchable character count' though.

Not sure if this is still needed but I'll post some pseudocode below to help you out:

Code

for line in text_list

splits = line.split(" ")

for word in splits:
line.append(" " + word.length)
