Need help on PY3 Split - HS08TEST

Hi,
I’m trying to solve - HS08TEST Problem - CodeChef

which shows the input values are separated by single white space
Eg:
30 120.00

That should make input.split() and input.split(’ ') return same results.
Looks like it’s not the case. The former successfully passes the tests. while the latter doesn’t.

Rejected - CodeChef: Practical coding for everyone
Accepted - CodeChef: Practical coding for everyone

Can someone please help?

The following code gives a Runtime error.

s = input()
if s.count(" ") > 1:
    raise ValueError("Invalid Number of Spaces")

So, there are inputs with more spaces.

Then, should the problem be edited to indicate clearly the input format?
