Split a message into multiple parts.

Messaging and social networking apps often require a message to be split into a number of smaller messages. For example, Twitter was once 140 characters per tweet, now called X, it is 280. SMS messages were typically 160 characters.

Make

Write a program that asks the user to enter a message and the maximum number of characters allowed in a single message. The program then outputs a list of each part of the message up to the maximum number of characters for each part.

Success Criteria

Remember to add a comment before a subprogram, selection or iteration statement to explain its purpose.

Complete the subprogram called tweets that:

  1. Takes two parameters, message, the message to be processed and num_chars, the maximum number of characters per single message.
  2. Returns a list of messages from the original message with each new message containing a maximum of num_chars characters.

Complete the main program so that:

  1. The user can input the message.
  2. The user can input the maximum number of characters per message.
  3. The list of messages is output.

Typical inputs and outputs from the program would be:

Enter the message: Hello
How many characters per message? :10
['Hello']

Enter the message: Hello, how are you today?
How many characters per message? :10
['Hello, how', ' are you t', 'oday?']
