Using just the at, length, and substr string methods and the + (concatenate) operator, write a function that accepts a string s, a start position p, and a length l, and returns a subset of s with the characters starting at position p for a length of l removed. Don’t forget that strings start at position 0. Thus (“abcdefghijk”, 2, 4) returns “abghijk”

- The function find_max_char takes one string parameter, mystr. The function returns the character in mystr with the maximum ordinal value (the character that comes last in the ASCII alphabet, relative to the other characters in mystr). However, if mystr is the empty string, the function returns the Python object None. Notice that we don't need the ord() function to compare ordinal values; we can use comparison operators. For example, "Z" > "C" is true because Z comes after C in the ASCII alphabet. We need to "accumulate" the correct answer (max_char) and then return it: First, if mystr is empty, return None Then initialize max_char (accumulator variable) to the first character in mystr Use a for loop to iterate ch over the characters in mystr Each time a new maximum character is found (if ch > max_char), max_char is updated to "remember" that the new maximum is ch Finally, return max_char For example: Test Result print(find_max_char("naproxen")) x…arrow_forwardImplement a function, countVowels, which takes in a string and counts the number of vowels that are contained within it. Make sure that both capital vowels and lowercase vowels are counted. Your starter code contains a main function, which asks for user input and outputs the number of vowels. You will need to implement the user input for the string. Sample Runs (user input is italicized and underlined): Enter a phrase: Hello World!Number of vowels: 3 Enter a phrase: PROGRAMMING IS EXCELLENT.Number of vowels: 7 #include <string>#include <iostream>using namespace std; int countVowels(string word); int main(){ string phrase; cout << "Enter a phrase: "; // To do: implement user input cout << "Number of vowels: " << countVowels(phrase) << endl;} // To do: Implement countVowels int countVowels(string word){}arrow_forwardConstruct dfas that accept the followings: a. Set of all strings on {0,1} that do not contain two consecutive 0s b. Set of all stings on {0,1} that end with two 0sarrow_forward
- code should be python: write a function that allows the input of a list of strings as its only parameter. Inside the body of the function find the first palindromic word and return it. If there is no such word, it should return an empty string. A string is palindromic if it reads the same forward and backward so for example If we call the function with [“horse”, “rat”, “roar”, “dad”, “mom”], the returned value should be “dad”. Note that “mom” is also a palindrome, but it is not the first one.arrow_forward1. a.Palindromes Complete the function palindrome(String text). Return true if text is a palindrome; if the word is identical forward and backward. Otherwise, return false. Example: palindrome(“racecar”) == true palindrome(“kayaks”) == false See main() for more examples. You can use text.charAt(i) to find the character at index i of text. Use recursion. palindrome() should call itself. No loops allowed. b. Complete the function nestedBrackets(String s). This function should find properly nested brackets within s. Return true if brackets are opened and closed correctly, and false otherwise. Single pairs and nested pairs are valid. For example: z[z]z, [zz[zz]z], [z[[z]zzz]], zzzzz Incorrect pairings and multiple separate pairs are not valid. For example: zz[zz, ]zzz[, [zzz][z], [z[z][z]z] See main() for more examples. nestedBrackets() should call firstIndexOf() and lastIndexOf() to help you solve the problem. Use recursion. nestedBrackets() should call itself. No loops…arrow_forwardCan this python code be done without using the isdigit() function. Please try to change the following code in the picture so it doesn't use isdigit().arrow_forward
- Answer wyicklyarrow_forwardComplete the rotate_text() function that takes 2 parameters, a string data and an integer n. If n is positive, then the function will shift all the characters in data forward by n positions, with characters at the end of the string being moved to the start of the string. If n is 0 then the text remains the same. For example: rotate_text('abcde', rotate_text('abcde', rotate_text('abcde', 1) would return the string 'eabcd' 3) would return the string 'cdeab' 5) would return the string 'abcde' rotate_text('abcde', 6) would return the string 'eabcd' ... and so on. If n is negative, then the function will shift the characters in data backward by n positions, with characters at the start of the string being moved to the end of the string. For example: rotate text('abcde', -1) would return the string 'bcdea'arrow_forwardI have a string with a phrase in it, and I want to turn it into all caps using the function toupper. Write a code fragment that does that and then prints the resulting string.arrow_forward
- Write a function named encode_string(sentence) that takes a string value as its input and returns an encoded string, where each character of the input string is replaced by its ASCII code plus 3 values. Whitespace characters should not be encoded. For example, if the function was passed the input string: Hello World then it should return: Khoor Zruog For example: Test sentence "Hello World" print (encode_string(sentence)) Result Khoor Zruogarrow_forwardImplement the following C function: repeatChars take in a null-terminated string as an argument and returns a newly- allocated null-terminated string that repeats every character in the input string. For example, repeatChars(''abcd'' )=''aabbccdd'' . You may use the strlen function to determine the length of the string your implementation does not need to check whether malloc returns NULL C Your implementation should not modify the input stringarrow_forward
