Question

Write a python program that does the following:

• takes as input from the user an English sentence
• calls the function vc_counter() that:
  • takes a string argument
  • counts the number of vowels and consonants in the string
  • returns a dictionary of the counts, using the keys total_vowels and total_consonants
• Uses the return from vc_counter() to print the total vowels and consonants with appropriate descriptions.

Example:
Enter an English sentence: The quick brown fox's jump landed past the lazy dog!
Total # of vowels in sentence: 12
Total # of consonants in sentence: 29

Answer 1

def vc_counter(s):
    total_vowels = 0
    total_consonants = 0
    for x in s:
        if x.isalpha():
            if x in "aeiouAEIOU":
                total_vowels += 1
            else:
                total_consonants += 1
    return {"total_vowels": total_vowels, "total_consonants": total_consonants}


# Testing
s = input("Enter an English sentence: ")
d = vc_counter(s)
print("Total # of vowels in sentence:",d["total_vowels"])
print("Total # of consonants in sentence:",d["total_consonants"])

Output :

Enter an English sentence: The quick brown fox's jump landed past the lazy dog! Total of vowels in sentence: 12 Total # of consonants in sentence: 29 Process finished with exit code 0
