Need assistance

[craig . sirna]

I need help writing a homework program. 

I'll write it, but I can't figure out how to incorporate what I have read in 
the book to work in code.

The assignment wants us to take a users first, middle and last name in a single 
input ( name=('enter your full name: )).

Then we must display the full name rearranged in Last, First Middle order. 

I tried to use the search function in Python to locate any spaces in the input. 
It spot back the index 5 (I used Craig Daniel Sirna)

That is correct for the first space, but I can't figure out how to get it to 
continue to the next space. 

The indexing process is also a bit confusingto me. 

I get that I can use len(fullName) to set the length of the index, and how the 
index is counted, but after that I'm lost. 

I have emailed my professor a few times, but haven't gotten a response.(online 
course)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am in bed, on my phone,  gotta be up in 4 hours for work. I will get back 
with you guys tomorrow after I take care of my Math class stuff. I need to step 
away from this for a day lol. 

Worst part...this is the C assignment and it's driving me crazy. 

I do recall the list fuction. But isn't it imperative that I have the index of 
the spaces in the string name?

I use the Fullname.isspace function.

def main():
name= input('Enter your full name: ')
split=name.split()
Full_name=split[2],split[0], split[1]
print(Full_name[2],',', Full_name[0], Full_name[1])

main()

Sorry it took so long to get back to you guys and I greatly appreciate all the 
help!!! 

But I just did it now and it does work. I have been working on my College 
algebra homework for the past week and I am still not even finished or ready 
for the testfml
