Thanks to gnuisance, Justin and the rest for the pointers in using title() and string.capwords()

import string

# Ask the user for input
adjective1 = raw_input("Give me an adjective! ")
noun1 = raw_input("Give me a noun (plural)! ")
noun2 = raw_input("Give me another noun! ")
adjective2 = raw_input("Give me another adjective and brace yourself... ")

# Print the poem
print ""
print string.capwords("A poem with " + noun1)

I like that people used some extra commands to improve their code. I have never used python before today so strating to see some additional commands and where they fit in was great. I was originally going to add the line after the title using print "" but using \n seems more elegant.

Using capitalize() and lower() to ensure the words fit into the poem with the correct case is handy.

I also liked the concept of title() however found limitations with how it handles apostrophes. However this was also good as it prompted me to look for a solution and learn about using string.capwords instead. For anyone wanting to use this command if you also want to use \n they will need to be outside the command. e.g:

import string

print "\n", string.capwords("Roses Are " + first_name + "'s best friend?!?!"), "\n"

Brylie's use of an if statement and Landon's demonstration of functions will no doubt come in handy furth down the track.

Anyway enough of me babbling on.....here is my code:

#Gather user input

first_name = raw_input("Tell me your first name, and press enter. ").capitalize()

adjective1 = raw_input("Tell me an adjective, and press enter. ").lower()

noun1 = raw_input("Tell me a noun (plural), and press enter. ").capitalize()

noun2 = raw_input("Tell me a singular noun, and press enter. ").capitalize()

adjective2 = raw_input("Tell me an another adjective, and press enter. ").lower()

#Display title

print "\nRoses Are " + first_name + "'s Best Friend?!?!\n"

#Display poem with users input

print "Roses are " + adjective1

print noun1 + " are blue"

print noun2 + " is " + adjective2

print "And so are you!"

I'm appreciating the value of looking at the comments and seeing everyone else's work. I appreciate the response that fixes the case of the input, mostly.

# Assume the user prefers their name with the case as entered.

name      = raw_input('Type in your name and complete with the return key: ')

print 'We now have your name on record as ' + name + '.'

# Correct case in the mad lib input to support conventional capitalization of the first letter of each line.

adj1      = raw_input("Type in an adjective and complete with the return key: ").lower()

noun1     = raw_input("Type in a noun (plural) and complete as above: ").capitalize()

noun2     = raw_input("Type in another noun and as above: ").capitalize()

adj2      = raw_input("Type in an another adjective etc: ").lower()

title = raw_input("Type in a phrase: ").title()

print title +'\nby judielaine and ' + name + '\n'

print "Roses are "+ adj1 +","

print noun1 +" are blue,"

print noun2 +" is "+ adj2+","

print "And so are you!"

Justin Ward said:

I noticed your use of .title() but came across an issue with it. If you have an apostrophe in your title in incorrectly capitalizes the letter after the apostrophe. e.g:

print "Roses are a man's best friend?!?!"

displays as:

Roses Are A Man'S Best Friend?!?!

Another way to do this is using string.capwords e.g:

import string

print string.capwords("Roses are a man's best friend?!?!")

#mad lib generator

#let the user input parts of speech for use in a madlib

adj1 = str (input ('Let\'s mad lib!; give me and adjective and press enter. '))

n1 = str (input ('Okay, now a plural noun. '))

n2 = str (input ('A singular noun. '))

adj2 = str (input ('Another adjective, and brace yourself for hilarity. '))

#title

print ('\nDon\'t be caught in a lurch this Valentine\'s Day!\n')

#combine the input words with text

print ('roses are ' + adj1 + '.')

print (n1 + ' are blue.')

print (n2 + ' is ' + adj2 + '.')

print ('And so are you!')

I admired a previous poster's capitalizing input to match the context of the poem. Does anyone have suggestions for an optimum strategy for finding desired commands and syntax that you think might exist? I'm using Python 3.2.

If you say 'Google it,' I'm gonna be let down.
