User is asked to enter the input in sentence

"""

sentence=input("Enter the sentence :")

"""

sentence is converted to list named words

"""

words=sentence.split()

same_letter_count=0

"""

In for loop we access each word

and check character at index 0 and at last index

is same or not.

"""

for word in words:

if word[0] == word[len(word)-1]:

same_letter_count+=1

print("The same letter count is",same_letter_count)

OUTPUT::
