Each letter of a word scores points according to its position in the alphabet: a =
1, b = 2, c = 3 etc.
You need to return the highest scoring word as a string.
If two words score the same, return the word that appears earliest in the original string.
All letters will be lowercase and all inputs will be valid.

Transcribed Image Text:def basic_test_cases ():
test.assert_equals (high('man i need a taxi up to ubud'), ' taxi')
test.assert_equals (high('what time are we climbing up the volcano'), 'volcano')
test.assert_equals (high('take me to semynak'), 'semynak')
test.assert_equals (high('aa b'), 'aa')
test.assert_equals (high('b aa'), 'b')
test.assert_equals (high('bb d'), 'bb')
test.assert_equals (high('d bb'), 'd')
test.assert_equals (high("aaa b"), "aaa")
