Chapter 9, Problem 7E
Write a function called i to insert one character string into another string. The arguments to the function should consist of the source string, the string to be inserted, and the position in the source string where the string is to be inserted. So, the call
i
with t as originally defined in the previous exercise, results in the character string̎ being inserted inside t, beginning at t . Therefore, the character string̎ is stored inside the t array after the function returned.

Complete the count_consonants () function that takes a single string parameter - text. This function counts and returns the number of
consonants in the text. A consonant is an alphabetical character that is not a vowel (i.e., an alphabetical character that is not an "a", "e", "i", "o" or "u").
The function must be able to count consonants regardless of case. Some examples of the function being called are shown below.
Note:
• You may find the isalpha () and lower () string methods useful for this exercise.
• Please only provide the function definition.
For example:
Test
text"Hello World"
print("Number of consonants ", count_consonants (text))
text "A quick brown fox"
print("Number of consonants", count_consonants (text))
Result
Number of consonants = 7
Number of consonants - 9
Complete the scramble_text() function that takes a single string parameter text. The
function returns a new string consisting of the characters in text scrambled order - every pair
of characters have their positions swapped. You can assume that the parameter text will have a
length of at least 1. For strings with an odd length, the last character remains unchanged in the
scrambled text. Some examples of the function being called are shown below.
For example:
Test
text = "I".
print (f"{text} --scramble--> {scramble_text (text)}")
text = "Hello"
print (f"{text} --scramble--> {scramble_text (text)}")
text = "superb"
print (f"{text} --scramble--> {scramble_text (text)}")
Result
I --scramble--> I
Hello --scramble--> eHllo
superb --scramble--> usepbr
Write and test a function that removes the leading and trailing spaces from a string. The function has two parameters. The first parameter is the address of the original string. The second parameter is the address of a string that is almost a copy of the original string. The difference between the strings is that the first string may have leading or trailing spaces and the second string will not have leading or trailing spaces. Use the function Str_length to compute the length of the original string

They are: • Sentence • position Your first task is to take these arguments as user input and pass these values to the function parameters. Your second task is to implement the function and remove the characters at the index number which is divisible by the position (Avoid the index number 0 as it will always be divisible by the position, so no need to remove the index 0 character). Finally, add the removed characters at the end of the new string. Return the value and then finally, print the new string at the function call.

- Imagine that you are a biomedical engineer analyzing DNA sequences. You have numerical measurements from two different measurement sources, m1 and m2, both of which are arrays. Write a function named dna that takes these two arrays as inputs. It should return a character array string of nucleotides (represented by the letters A, C, G and T). For a given index, i, the nucleotide in the string is: - ‘A’ if m1(i) >= 0 and m2(i) >= 0 - ‘C’ if m1(i) < 0 and m2(i) >= 0 - ‘G’ if m1(i) >= 0 and m2(i) < 0 - ‘T’ if m1(i) < 0 and m2(i) < 0 code to call the function m1 = [-2 -3 2.5 0.3]; m2 = [1.1 2.1 -0.8 0.1]; sequecne = dna(m1,m2); function dna Please use MATLABarrow_forwardStep 3. Your starting code has a function readNames returns an array of student names. The temporary code you were given always returns the same five names shown above (Ava, Ben, ...). Now you will change this function so that it reads from StdIn an integer N 2 0, followed by N names. You can assume that after N, the input will always be exactly N names, each on one line that could be read using the function StdIn.readString . There are several example data files in the directory that conform to this specification. For example names3.txt contains 3 names (Ava, Ben and Carol). Your function should return an array containing those N student names. For example, if you provide the file names3.txt on StdIn your version of readNames would return the three names in that text file, and the output would be: $ java-introcs ZoomRooms greedy 3 < names3.txt Room: 0 Ava Ben Carol Room: 1 Note that with the code we have so far we will always print out exactly two rooms, regardless of the number of…arrow_forwardWrite a user-defined function that compares two string with each other.

- Computer Science In C++ use the following STL algorithms: reverse, rotate, and shuffle. Write versions of these functions using the same parameters as the original functions but using your own definition of the function body. Use each function at least three different times in a test program to make sure the function operates properly. The data sets you use for testing should contain at least twenty elementsarrow_forwardProblem Statement: Consider an input string PAL of letters ‘P’, ‘A’, and ‘L’. This string, which is given by the user, ends with ‘#’. It should be stored in a table (or array), called PAL_TAB. The number of each of these letters is unknown. We have a function, called SWAP(PAL, i, j), which places the ith letter in the jth entry of string PAL and the jth letter in the ith entry of PAL. Note that SWAP(PAL, i, j) is defined for all integers i and j between 0 and length(PAL) – 1, where length(PAL) is the number of letters of PAL. 1. Using our algorithmic language, write an algorithm, called Sort_PAL, which sorts the letters in the array PAL_TAB in a way that all P’s appear first, followed by all A’s, and followed by all L’s. The algorithm Sort_PAL should have one parameter: The array PAL_TAB. Also, your solution is correct only if the four constraints below are satisfied: - Constraint 1: Each letter (‘A’, ‘L’, or ‘P’) is evaluated only once. - Constraint 2: The function SWAP(PAL, i, j) is…arrow_forwardPlease code in python Using the function from the previous problem, write a function durdle_game(target) which takes in as an argument a single string that will be the target to guess, and lets the user attempt to guess the target word. Each time the user makes a guess, the function will print out the result of the previous function to tell the user how close they are. If the user guesses correctly, then the game is over. Have the function return the number of guesses that it took the user to get the correct answer Hints: You may assume that the target and all of the input strings are 5 letters and all lowercase.arrow_forward
- Q5. Write a function called findString to determine if one character string exists inside another string. The first argument to the function should be the character string that is to be searched and the second argument is the string you are interested in finding. If the function finds the specified string, have it return the location in the source string where the string was found. If the function does not find the string, have it return -1. For example: For function, findString ("a chatterbox", "hat") It searches the string "a chatterbox" for the string "hat". Because "hat" does exist inside the source string, the function returns Location= 3 to indicate the starting position inside the source string where "hat" was found.

You can assume that the name will always be in the format first name surname with a single space character between the first name and the surname. The function returns a string consisting of the first letter of the first name followed by the first three letters of the surname. All of the characters in the returned string should be in lowercase. Some examples of the function being used are shown below: For example: Test Result print(process_name("Damir Azhar")) dazh print(process_name("Ann Cameron")) acam Answer: (penalty regime: 0 %) Reset answer 1v def process_name (name): 2arrow_forwardplease code in python. Each problem will be placed in its own function. You will have a main function that calls the function for each problem. For these problems, you will need to use the following string functions: lower, upper, isupper, islower, isdigit, and replace, along with using [ ] to access individual characters. You may use other string functions if you find them useful. You will write a function named computeGCPercentage that accepts a string (representing a piece of DNA) as an input and returns a float representing the Guanine-Cytosine (GC) content percentage. For example, assume that the DNA string GTAACTAGCTTACGTAAC is entered. Because there are a total of 7 characters that are either G or C, and there are 18 characters altogether, the function should return a floating point value equivalent to 7/18 . Requirements Your function:1. Must check to see that there are no other characters in the string other than those specified. If there is, it should print an error message…arrow_forward
