Python

Problem 1. This problem provides practice using a while True loop. Write a function named twoWords that gets and returns two words from a user. The first word is of a specified length, and the second word begins with a specified letter. The function twoWords takes two parameters: i. an integer, length, that is the length of the first word and ii. a character, firstLetter, that is the first letter of the second word. The second word may begin with either an upper or lower case instance of firstLetter. The function twoWords should return the two words in a list. Use a while True loop and a break statement in the implementation of twoWords.

The following is an example of the execution of twoWords:

print(twoWords(4, \'B\')) A 4-letter word please two A 4-letter word please one A 4-letter word please four A word beginning with B please apple A word beginning with B please pear A word beginning with B please banana [\'four\', \'banana\']

Solution

PROGRAM CODE:

# function to get two words
def twoWords(length, letter):
   list = [\'\',\'\']
   #Loop for word 1 with the mentioned length of letters
   while True:
       word1 = str(raw_input(\"\ A \" + str(length) + \"-letter word please \"))
       if len(word1) == length:
           list[0] = word1
           break;
   #Loop for word 2 that starts with the mentioned letter
   while True:
       word2 = str(raw_input(\'\ A word beginning with \' + letter + \' please \'))
       #converting to lowercase
       if word2[0].lower() == letter.lower():
           list[1] = word2
           break;
   return list;

print( twoWords(4, \'B\'))

OUTPUT:
