I'm making a basic program to detect certain words from a string and mark the message as SPAM if the string contains the spam keywords but ran into a problem. The compiler doesn't detect it as spam unless I input the exact same strings.
Here's the code :
text = input("text : ")
if(text == 'make a lot of money' in text) or (text == 'buy now'in text) or (text == 'subscribe this 'in text) or (text =='click link' in text):
print("SPAM")
else:
print("OKAY")
That' because you're comparing with equals:
text == 'make a lot of money' in text
instead just use the in command:
'make a lot of money' in text
will yield True if the text contains that string
You're not using correct syntax for if statement, please use this:
text = input("text : ")
if 'make a lot of money' in text or 'buy now' in text or 'subscribe this' in text or 'click link' in text:
print("SPAM")
else:
print("OKAY")
text = input("text : ")
if('make a lot of money' in text) or ('buy now'in text) or ('subscribe this' in text) or ('click link' in text):
print("SPAM")
else:
print("OKAY")
OR
text = input("text : ")
spam_phrases = ['make a lot of money','buy now','subscribe this','click link']
for phrase in spam_phrases:
if phrase in text:
print("SPAM")
break
else:
print("OKAY")
(text == 'buy now' in text)is incorrect. Use('buy now' in text). Same goes for the other 3 conditions
