I want to find which word’s last character is ‘e’ and I would like to replace ‘e’ with ‘ing’. After this process want to append these in the array such as new words
words= ['example', 'serve', 'recognize', 'ale'] for x in words: size = len(x) if "e" == x[size - 1]: words.append(x.replace(x[-1], 'ing')) print(words)
output
['example', 'serve', 'recognize', 'ale', 'ingxampling', 'singrving', 'ringcognizing', 'aling']
I want to get the output like this
['example', 'serve', 'recognize', 'ale', 'exampling', 'serving', 'recognizing', 'aling']

Try this:
words = ['example', 'serve', 'recognize', 'ale'] for x in words: if x[-1] == 'e': words.append(x[:-1] + 'ing') print(words)
Or if you want a 1 liner:
words = [*words, *[x[:-1] + 'ing' for x in words if x[-1] == 'e']]
