a) Suppose we are trying to hide a secret message by embedding it in random extra letters. Write a function decode that takes a string called message and a list called key as parameters and returns a new string that represents the decoded text. key contains the index positions of the secret message in message. Example: For a message "KSGIAOELWIERUXOVPQIERCZXIETSQNBY" and key [3, 7, 14, 15, 19 ,21, 27] the function returns "ILOVECS" It is possible that the key contains numbers that are invalid index positions they greater than the length of message. These extra numbers should be ignored. Example: For a message "OK" and key [0, 1, 2, 3, 4] the function returns "OK"

Complete the scramble_text() function that takes a single string parameter text. The function returns a new string consisting of the characters in text scrambled order - every pair of characters have their positions swapped. You can assume that the parameter text will have a length of at least 1. For strings with an odd length, the last character remains unchanged in the scrambled text. Some examples of the function being called are shown below. For example: Test text = "I". print (f"{text} --scramble--> {scramble_text (text)}") text = "Hello" print (f"{text} --scramble--> {scramble_text (text)}") text = "superb" print (f"{text} --scramble--> {scramble_text (text)}") Result I --scramble--> I Hello --scramble--> eHllo superb --scramble--> usepbr
code should be python: write a function that allows the input of a list of strings as its only parameter. Inside the body of the function find the first palindromic word and return it. If there is no such word, it should return an empty string. A string is palindromic if it reads the same forward and backward so for example If we call the function with [“horse”, “rat”, “roar”, “dad”, “mom”], the returned value should be “dad”. Note that “mom” is also a palindrome, but it is not the first one.
Write a subroutine that takes a simple sentence in noun-verb-object form and parses the sentence into its different parts. For example, the sentence “Mary walked the dog” is parsed into this:Noun: MaryVerb: walkedObject: the dogThis function should work with both String objects and StringBuilder objects.
Define a function named get_encrypted_list (word) which takes a word as a parameter. The function returns a list of characters. The first element is the first letter from the parameter word and the rest is as a sequence of '*', each '*' representing a letter in the parameter word. Note: you can assume that the parameter word is not empty. For example: Test Result ['h', '*', **1 guess = get_encrypted_list('hello') print(guess) print (type (guess)) guess = get_encrypted_list('succeed') ['s', '*', print (guess) **¹, ¹*¹] **']
Write a single function• that squares each item of a list, t• then sums all the items in the list, and• then lastly, takes square root of the sun.
Write a function get_total_price(class_list) that takes in a list of class callnumbers and outputs the total price of all textbooks in the class list. Use the catalog list ofdictionaries in the provided catalog.py file to look up a variety of information about abookstore catalog. Hint: To access the file from within your solution, you should add an import catalog call tothe top of your Python file.by calling catalog. catalog. this is the catalog file: csci = {"abbreviation":"CSCI", "department":"Computer Science","classes": [{"number": "1133", "textbook": "Programming in Python", "price":60.00},{"number": "3081W", "textbook": "UML Distilled", "price":45.00},{"number": "4041", "textbook": "Introduction to Algorithms", "price":70.00},{"number": "4511W", "textbook": "Artificial Intelligence", "price": 159.99},{"number": "5511", "textbook": "Artificial Intelligence", "price": 159.99}]} chen = {"abbreviation":"CHEN", "department":"Chemical Engineering","classes": [{"number": "3101",…
Write a function called match_words() that takes three input parameters; a list of strings of any length (e.g., ['789', 'del','a', 'do', ‘abc’,'bb','dcc']), a character c and an integer x. This function returns a list of all strings in the 2-D list that starts with the character c and is at most x characters long. Sample run, >>> alist = ['6789', 'black', 'green', 'd', 'blue', 'red', 'beige', 'dddd', 'yellow', 'buff', 'zzzzzzzzz'] >>> print( match_words( alist, ‘b’, 4 )) ['blue’, ‘buff’]
Display the password from the main() function. Write a function replaceVowels() with no return value to replace all the vowels (A, E, I, O, U) that have been selected with a symbol from the list ($ % @# &). That is, A must be replaced by $, E replaced by %, I must be replaced by @, O replaced by #, and U must be replaced by &. The function receives the address of the first characters of the password string as parameter. Display the password agin from the main() function.
Write a function letter_count that accepts a string txt and returns a list containing the number of times that each letter of the alphabet occurs within txt. The returned list should contain the number of occurences of all twenty-six letters of the Latin alphabet, counting both upper and lower-case instances. For example, the string 'Abacus' contains two instances of the letter 'a', and so the first element of the returned list would be 2
Write a function that takes a string as its only argument and returns a sorted list of characters used in the string. The resulting list should only contain lower case letters and each letter should exist only once. Also, the resulting list shouldn't contain any spaces or punctuation marks, such as ",;.!?". For example, strletters("We are, the Champions!") returns ['a', 'c', 'e', 'h', 'i', 'm', 'n', 'o', 'p', 'r', 's', 't', 'w'] def strletters(istr): return # Remove this line to answer this question.
