Chapter 6, Problem 14PP
The following is an old word puzzle: “Name a common word, besides tremendous, stupendous and horrendous, that ends in dous.” If you think about this for a while, it will probably come to you. However, we can also solve this puzzle by reading a text file of English words and outputting the word if it contains “dous” at the end. The text file “words.txt” contains 87, 314 English words, including the word that completes the puzzle. This file is available online with the source code for the book. Write a

write a program that will open a file called “story.txt”and count the number of occurrences of each letter from the alphabet in this file.At the end your program will output the following report:Number of occurrences for the alphabets:a was used – times.b was used – times.c was used – times…. …and so, onAssume the file contains only lower-case letters and for simplicity just a singleparagraph. Your program should keep a counter associated with each letter of thealphabet (26 counters) [Hint: Use array]Your program should also print a histogram of characters count by addinga new function print Histogram (int counters []). This function receives thecounters from the previous task and instead of printing the number of times eachcharacter was used, prints a histogram of the counters. An example histogram forthree letters is shown below) [Hint: Use the extended asci character 254]:

- Write a program that first reads in the name of an input file and then reads the input file using the file.readlines() method. The input file contains an unsorted list of number of seasons followed by the corresponding TV show. Your program should put the contents of the input file into a dictionary where the number of seasons are the keys, and a list of TV shows are the values (since multiple shows could have the same number of seasons). Sort the dictionary by key (least to greatest) and output the results to a file named output_keys.txt, separating multiple TV shows associated with the same key with a semicolon (;). Next, sort the dictionary by values (alphabetical order), and output the results to a file named output_titles.txt.

IMPORTANT NOTES: the median is the element in the middle when you sort the values; the median of values (2, 1, 3) is 2, because when you sort them, you get 1, 2, 3, and 2 is the value in the middle. you can assume there will be no empty lines; there might be any arbitrary number lines in the file; there might be any arbitrary number of elements in a single line; you can assume there will always be an odd number of elements.

- Write a program that receives a coded message file(Lab3ExtraCreditCT.txt) from your local espionage agent and decodes it into a file using standard English. The problem is your agent forgot to tell you the key used to decode the message. Fortunately, this is a simple substitution code consistently using 1 alphanumeric character to represent another, this is case sensitive. All other characters are not substituted, so a space will always be a space, a – will always be a –, a @ will always be a @, etcetera.
