Trying to say in my code that if middle_name is an empty string then print, else if it has been inputted then print the second way.

What's the best way to word my if statement?

first_name = input()
middle_name = input()
last_name = input()

first_initial = first_name[0:1]
middle_initial = middle_name[0:1]
  
      
if middle_name != str:
    print((last_name + ','), first_initial)
else:   
    print(last_name,(first_initial + '.' + middle_initial + '.'))

  • @greenjaed yes thank you, I ended up scrapping this idea and went with something different, but thank you anyways – Tommy Kirby May 18 '21 at 11:17
