Question
The setting: "Tell me that story again!" Your younger cousin keeps asking for the same stories told over and over again. You've decided to automate the storytelling with a Python program. Your function tellstory should take in a list of strings in story, and then print the story from the list according to the direction variable: "forwards": tell the story in the order it's presented in the list "backwards": tell the story backwards "every other": tell every your cousin only every other line in the story. Your function should choose an ending to the story depending on the input ending type: "happy": "and they all lived happily ever after." "sad": "but alas, it did not last." Anything else: "and that's all I'm going to say about that." The story should be printed to the terminal according to the instructions in ending and direction. The ending of a story always comes at the end, no matter what the direction of the story is. What to submit: • Your solution in a file named: tell_story.py You may include other files with any "helper" functions you've written. Documentation/comments in tell_story.py should indicate any additional helper files you've included
