# This code snippet takes a string input and append suffixes based on a number of conditions
# Condtion:
#    1 if the lenght of the string is grater than 3 characters and is not already
#       ended with "ing" then add suffix "ing"
#    2 else if the lenght of the string is grater than 3 then add suffix "ly"
#
# The code snippet can be improved to include more business conditions.
################################################################################################


# input string.
s_word = input()

# suffix to add to the input string if the condition is met
# the condition is, the string length must be grater than 3
suffix1 = "ing"

# suffix to add to the input string when the condition is not met
suffix2 = "ly"

# Initialize result to the input string.
# The same input string will be retured if 
# None of the conditions are met.
result = s_word

# check if s_word is all letters
# you don't want to add "ing" or "ly" to string of numbers
if s_word.isalpha():

    # trim all leading or trailing spaces
    s_word = s_word.strip()

    #1 The string contains at least 3 characters/letters
    if len(s_word) >= 3:

        # Extract the last 3 character of the string
        str_end = s_word[-3:].lower()
        print(str_end)
        # Append suffix1 if the last 3 character of the string
        # do not already contains it
        if str_end != suffix1.lower():
            result = s_word+suffix1

        #2 Append suffix2 if the string already ends
        #  with suffix1
        else:
            result = s_word+suffix2

print(result)

python program to add 'ing' at the end of a given string (length should be at least 3). if the given string already ends with 'ing' then add 'ly' instead. if the string length of the given string is less than 3, leave it unchanged.

Comment

"""Hope It's usseful. Maybe I putted errors in the English phrases."""

"""The code adds -ing to a given word:
   --If the word already finishes with -ing it will change it to -ly.
   --If the word is less than 3 characters long it won't do anything."""

text=input("Writte the text")
if len(text)>=3:
	cutted_text=text[-3:]
	if not("ing" in cutted_text):
		if  not("ly" in cutted_text[:-2]):
			print("The word don't ends with -ing or -ly")
			text+="ing"
		else:
			print("The word already has -ly")
	else:
		print("The word ends width -ing")
		text=text[:-3]+"ly"
else:
	print("The word is less than 3 caracthers long")
		
print("")
print(text,"is the final result!")
input()
