Question

Hi, I need some help finishing the last part of this Python 1 code. The last few functions are incomplete. Thank you.

The instructions were:

The program has three functions in it.

1. I’ve written all of break_into_list_of_words()--DO NOT CHANGE THIS ONE. All it does is break the very long poem into a list of individual words. Some of what it's doing will not make much sense to you until we get to the strings chapter, and that's fine--that's part of why I wrote it for you. :)
2. There’s a main() which you’ll add a little bit to, but it should stay pretty small -- some print statements and some function calls
3. There’s a definition of a function called count_how_many_words(), which takes two arguments. (Don’t change the arguments.) You’ll write the entire block for this.
   1. Note: My return statement is definitely not what you want; it’s just there so that the program runs when I give it to you. You will want to change what the function returns!

I want you to complete the count_how_many_words() function, and then call it (multiple times) inside main() to find out how many times Poe used the word “Raven” (or “raven”) and how many times he used “Nevermore” (or “nevermore”) inside the poem “The Raven.”

Example output (with incorrect numbers):

The word "Raven" (or "raven") appears 42 times in Edgar Allen Poe's "The Raven."

The word "Nevermore" (or "nevermore") appears 48 times in Edgar Allen Poe's "The Raven."

Following is the code we have to complete:

# this function takes in a string and a list and counts how many times that

# string shows up in that list

def count_how_many_words(word_list, counting_string):

   return None #this is just here so the program still compiles

def main():

   count = 0

   words = break_into_list_of_words(THE_RAVEN)

   # print(words)

if __name__ == "__main__":

   main()

Answer 1

# this function takes in a string and a list and counts how many times that

# string shows up in that list

def count_how_many_words(word_list, counting_string):
   count = 0
   counting_string = counting_string.lower()
   for i in range(len(word_list)):
       if(word_list[i].lower() == counting_string):
           count += 1
   return count #this is just here so the program still compiles

def main():
   count = 0
   #words = break_into_list_of_words(THE_RAVEN)
   #sample line splitted by space
   words = "The word Raven (or raven ) appears 42 times in Edgar Allen Poe's 'The Raven .'".strip().split(" ")
   #print words
   print(words)
   count = count_how_many_words(words, "raven")
   print("Count of Raven: ",count)
  
   #another sample line for testing
   words = "The word Nevermore (or nevermore ) appears 48 times in Edgar Allen Poe's The Raven . ".strip().split(" ")
   print(words)
   count = count_how_many_words(words,"Nevermore")
   print("Count of Nevermore: ",count)

if __name__ == "__main__":

main()
