Input

text: The text to count.

Output

Return the number of words.

Constraints

0 ≤ length ≤ 10,000

Examples

Example 1
Input:
text = "Learn to code today"

Expected output:
expected = 4
Input:
std::string text = "Learn to code today";

Expected output:
long long expected = 4;
Input:
string text = "Learn to code today";

Expected output:
long expected = 4;

Explanation

Four words separated by spaces: 4.

Example 2
Input:
text = "   "

Expected output:
expected = 0
Input:
std::string text = "   ";

long long expected = 0;
Input:
