如何禁用在 Python 3 中触发输入的回车键？

Question

So I'm trying to make a simple word counting program, and I want it to be able to take enter keys as part of the essay it's reading without being triggered. (If anyone didn't understand, if I copy paste a paragraph that has the enter character in it, python will simply stop receiving the string at the enter char, because it thinks the user pressed enter, and it will take an incomplete input). I don't think I can explain this too well, so try copy pasting this into the code:

Line 1: My name is Jack.
Line 2: Jack is my name.

It only accepts line one. Is there a workaround to this problem? Or is there a completely different approach I should take?

Code:

#Count words in an essay

import time

SA = input('Copy paste essay: \n')

word_list = SA.split(' ')
print (str(len(word_list)) + ' is the number of words in your essay')

In python 3.x, you can use sys.stdin.read() to read multiline input on the console.

>>> import sys
>>> text = sys.stdin.read()
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. 
Sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.
^Z
>>> print(text)
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.
Sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.
>>>

To exit the input mode, you have to use Ctrl + Z which appears in the above shell snippet as ^Z .
