Python for Everybody[edit]

Chapter 7:

  • Exercises 1, 2, and 3

Wordplay Level 2[edit]

  • For every letter, print the word that uses that character the most. Hint: use two nested for loops. First one is
     for letter in 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz':
        # do something
    
  • Find the longest string where no character appears more than 1 time. (Hint: look up counters)
  • Use Python to find one other interesting fact about the data set. Examples (that you can't use) might be:
    • One of the words that is tied for the most vowels is aquifoliaceous
    • The word with the highest consonant to vowel ratio is sulphhydryls
