Question

Your task is to write a function definition for a function named non_vowel_words that takes a string as a parameter.  The function returns a setcontaining the words of the strings that do not start with a vowel (upper or lower case). The vowels are A, E, I, O, U.

For full credit, make sure your implementation is pythonic, uses Python built-in capabilities and follows the Python style guide recommendations.  Please include a docstring for your function.

You may test your function as follows:

message = "Explicit   is better       than Implicit and Simple is better than Complex"
print(non_vowel_words(message)) # {'than', 'Simple', 'better', 'Complex'} order is not relevant

Start with:

def non_vowel_words(text):

Answer 1

def non_vowel_words(text):
    text = " ".join(text.split())
    result = set()
    for x in text.split(" "):
        flag = True
        if x[0] in "aeiouAEIOU":
            flag = False
        if flag == True:
            result.add(x)
    return result

message = "Explicit   is better       than Implicit and Simple is better than Complex"
print(non_vowel_words(message)) # {'than', 'Simple', 'better', 'Complex'} order is not relevant
