Write a function that takes a String and checks whether or not it ends with one of "T", *?.", or *" Return true if it does, otherwise false. Try writing your solution using regular String methods and again as a RegExp
Using your solution, do a check on the following sentences:
a sentence ending with!
Write the code in python to define a function has_repeat(mystr), which takes a string parameter and returns a boolean result.
- If mystr has a character that is repeated (count is more than 1 for that character), return True
- Otherwise, return False
Hint: You can solve this problem by iterating over the characters in mystr and comparing each character's count with 1.
For example:
Test
Result
print(has_repeat("Happy"))
True
print(has_repeat("sad"))
False
print(has_repeat("salmons"))
True
print(has_repeat("Trouts"))
False

- please code in python MCQ are a very popular form of assessment because they can be automatically graded…and the students can choose an answer at random if they don’t know.The goal of this exercise is to write a function scoreMCQ(attempt, correct), where attempt is a string that contains the answers of the student and correct is a string with the correct answers.The function should return the number of correct answers.Check first that both strings have the same length, otherwise raise an exception.If both strings are empty the score should be 0 of course.To test your code, you can copy paste the following assert statements as your main function:assert(scoreMCQ("","")==0), "First test failed"assert(scoreMCQ("TFTF","TTTT")==2), "Second test failed"assert(scoreMCQ("TTTT","TTTT")==4), "Third test failed"assert(scoreMCQ("CCCC","ABCD")==1), "Fourth test failed"print("All tests succesfull")arrow_forwarduestion 42: Return whether a string consists of a single letter In the function below, return True if the input string parameter consists of a single uppercase letter; otherwise, return False. Most solutions would do this in two logical steps: first testing if the string consists of a single character and, second, testing whether that character is one of the uppercase letters (which can be done by seeing if it is alphabetically between A and Z, inclusive).arrow_forwardTwo words are anagrams if they are formed by rearranging the letters of another, such as cinema, formed from iceman, and vice versa. Implement an anagram checker function using string functions in C. Your program should be able to: 1. Scan for the two words to be checked 2. Pass those two words to a function called areAnagrams which returns an int to be interpreted in the main() whether the given words are anagrams or not. 3. The program should loop indefinitely until the words "EXIT NOW" is used as input. Sample Run: Enter two strings: cinema iceman cinema and iceman are anagrams! Enter two strings: almost atoms almost and atoms are NOT anagrams Enter two strings: vice versa vice and versa are NOT anagrams! Enter two strings: frail flare frail and flare are NOT anagrams! Enter two strings: algorithm logarithm algorithm and logarithm are anagrams! Enter two strings: EXIT NOWarrow_forward
- Write a function that determines if two strings are anagrams. The functionshould not be case sensitive and should disregard any punctuation or spaces.Two strings are anagrams if the letters can be rearranged to form each other.For example, “Eleven plus two” is an anagram of “Twelve plus one”. Each stringcontains one “v”, three “e’s”, two “l’s”, etc. Test your function with severalstrings that are anagrams and non-anagrams. You may use either the string classor a C-style string. use c++arrow_forward: Given a string, write a function to check if it is a permutation ofa palindrome. A palindrome is a word or phrase that is the same forwards and backwards. Apermutation is a rearrangement of letters. The palindrome does not need to be limited to justdictionary words.EXAMPLEInput: Tact CoaOutput: True (permutations: "taco cat'; "atco eta·; etc.)arrow_forwardBartleby answered my homework and Write a function called has_duplicates that takes a string parameter and returns True if the string has any repeated characters. Otherwise, it should return False. Implement has_duplicates by creating a histogram using the histogram function above. Do not use any of the implementations of has_duplicates that are given in your textbook. Instead, your implementation should use the counts in the histogram to decide if there are any duplicates. Write a loop over the strings in the provided test_dups list. Print each string in the list and whether or not it has any duplicates based on the return value of has_duplicates for that string. For example, the output for "aaa" and "abc" would be the following. aaa has duplicatesabc has no duplicates Print a line like one of the above for each of the strings in test_dups. True needs to be defined. I tried to code it but didn't accept and got an error message.arrow_forward
- Write a function vowelIndex that accepts a word (a str ) as an argument and returns the indexof the first vowel in the word. If there is no vowel, -1 is returned. For this problem, both upperand lower case vowels count, and 'y' is not considered to be a vowel. #note that the language is Pythonarrow_forwardWe can assign a value to each character in a word based on their position in the alphabet (a = 1, b = 2, ..., z = 26). A balanced word is one where the sum of the values on the left side of the word equals the sum of the values on the right side. For odd-length words, the middle character (balance point) is ignored. Write a function that returns true if the word is balanced and false if it is not. Examples balance("zips") → true // "zips" = "zi|ps" "zips" = 26+9 | 16+19 = 35 35 = true balanced ("brake") → false // "brake" = "br|ke" = 2+18 11+5 = 2016 = false liarrow_forwardWrite a function that takes two integers and returns True if the integers have a common divisor that is different than 1, otherwise returns False. For example, notRelPrime(3,5) returns False, whereas notRelPrime (8,12) returns True. Because, 3 and 5 have only one common divisor, which is 1, whereas 8 and 12 are both divisible by 1, 2 and 4. def notRelPrime (a, b):arrow_forward
- Write the function that takes three dimensions of a brick: height(a), width(b) and depth(c) and returns true if this brick can fit into a hole with the width (w) and height(h). Examples doesBrickFit(1, 1, 1, 1, 1) → true doesBrickFit(1, 2, 1, 1, 1) → true doesBrickFit(1, 2, 2, 1, 1) false Notes • You can turn the brick with any side towards the hole. • We assume that the brick fits if its sizes equal the ones of the hole (i.e. brick size should be less than or equal to the size of the hole, not strictly less). • You can't put a brick in at a non-orthogonal angle.arrow_forwardIn Kotlin, write a higher-order function with an expression body that takes an int n and a function f from int to int and returns the result of calling f(f(n)). For example if you call the function with n = -5 anda function that calculates absolute value, your function will return 5, and if you send the value 2 and a function that calculates the sqaure of an int, the function will return 16. in addition to the function, write the syntax to call it with:a. a function name as the function arguementb. some lambda expression as the function argumentarrow_forwardwrite c++ program Write a function, isPalindrome, that returns true if a string is a palindrome and false otherwise. A string is a palindrome if it reads forward and backward in the same way. For example, the strings "madamimadam", "5", "434", and "789656987" are all palindromes. The prototype of the function is as follows: bool isPalindrome(string str);arrow_forward
