Write a function get_initials(the name) that takes a string of a name and returns the initials of the name, in upper case, separated by periods, with an additional period at the end. Input-Output Samples John Q Public J. Q.P. Homer J Simpson H. J.S. Gloria kind of a big deal Tropalogos G. O.O. D. If the argument to the function is the string on the left, then return the string on the right. You don't need to print, since that's the job of wherever the value is returned.

Following are the code to this question:

def get_initials(the_name): #defining a method get_initials

   name = the_name.split(" ") #defining name variable that splits value

   val = ''#defining a string variable val  

   for n in name:  #defining loop to convert value into upper case and store first character

       val = val + n[0].upper() + "."  # use val variable to hold value

   return val # return val

print(get_initials("Gloria kind of a big deal Tropalogos"))#call method and print return value

print(get_initials("Homer J Simpson"))#call method and print return value

print(get_initials("John Q Public")) #call method and print return value

Output:

J.Q.P.

H.J.S.

G.K.O.A.B.D.T.

Explanation:

In the given code, the last is incorrect because if we pass the value that is "Gloria kind of a big deal Tropalogos" so, will not give G.O.O.D. instead of that it will return G.K.O.A.B.D.T.  So, the program description can be given as follows:

you have to email it to yourself from your phone then download it to either google drive or you computer files. then you can go to where ever you saved it and select it and then copy and paste it. or you could attach it to your question when you are writing it which would be much easier. for example: go to the attachment.
