Question

Python.

create a function that takes a string as a parameter and prints out the following details as the example output below. If the string is "Hello, my name is Starling, Clarice. My, my, my, nice to meet you." The output would be:

Unique words: 10

Number of commas: 5

Number of periods: 2

Number of sentences: 2

(HINT: Use the following string methods: split, lower, count, replace, format, and use the following functions: set, len.

You may need to use some methods and functions more than once.)

Answer 1

Python code:

#defining function

def analyze_sentence(sentence):

    #storing count of "," to c

    c=sentence.count(",")

    #storing count of "," to p

    p=sentence.count(".")

    #storing number of sentences to ns

    ns=p

    #replacing "," with ""

    sentence=sentence.replace(",","")

    #replacing "." with ""

    sentence=sentence.replace(".","")

    #converting sentence to lowercase

    sentence=sentence.lower()

    #storing number of unique words to u

    u=len(set(sentence.split()))

    #printing unique word count

    print("Unique words: {}".format(u))

    #printing comma count

    print("Number of commas: {}".format(c))

    #printing period count

    print("Number of periods: {}".format(p))

    #printing sentence count

    print("Number of sentences {}".format(ns))

#calling function analyze_sentence

analyze_sentence("Hello, my name is Starling, Clarice. My, my, my, nice to meet you.")
