Move spaces to front of string.

Write a Python program to move spaces to the front of a given string.

Pictorial Presentation:

Sample Solution:

Python Code:

# Define a function 'move_Spaces_front' that takes a string 'str1' as input.
def move_Spaces_front(str1):
    # Create a list 'noSpaces_char' containing all characters from 'str1' that are not spaces.
    noSpaces_char = [ch for ch in str1 if ch != ' ']

    # Calculate the number of space characters in the input string 'str1'.
    spaces_char = len(str1) - len(noSpaces_char)

    # Create a string 'result' containing the same number of space characters at the beginning.
    result = ' ' * spaces_char

    # Concatenate the 'result' string with the characters in 'noSpaces_char' and enclose it in double quotes.
    result = '"' + result + ''.join(noSpaces_char) + '"'

    return result  # Return the modified string.

# Call the 'move_Spaces_front' function with different input strings and print the results.
print(move_Spaces_front("w3resource .  com  "))
print(move_Spaces_front("   w3resource.com  ")) 

Sample Output:

"     w3resource.com"
"     w3resource.com"
