I am trying to count the number of sentences in a text but I do not get the correct number anytime I run this line.
import re
n = input("Text: ")
sent = len(re.split(r'[.!?]+', n))
print(f"{sent}", end="")

2Can you give us an example of input and expected output? – Yonatan Karp-Rudin Feb 08 '20 at 11:00

The last element of `re.split(r'[.!?]+', n)` will be `..., '']` as there will be a `[.!?]` at the end of the sentence, which is extra. – Keyur Potdar Feb 08 '20 at 11:01
