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")
uestion 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).

- 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_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_forwardWrite a function vowelIndex that accepts a word (a str ) as an argument and returns the indexof the first vowel in the word.

The program will convert the name to the following form: firstName middleName lastName. Your program must read the student's entire name in one variable and must consist of a user-defined function that takes as input a string, consisting of a student's name, and returns the string consisting of the altered name. You can use the string function find to find the index of ,(the comma); the function length to find the length of the string; and the function substr to extract the firstName, middleName, and lastName.arrow_forward
