Question
Please do not use string methods except to count method!

Transcribed Image Text:get_nth_word_from_string(s, n): This function takes a string s and a non-negative integer n as
input. The string s may contain substrings of text separated by commas. The function should
return the n'th comma-separated substring. We will start counting at 0, so if n=0, then the first
substring should be returned (i.e., everything before the first comma, if there is such a comma); if
n=1, then the second substring should be returned (i.e., everything between the first comma and
second comma, if there is such a comma); and so on. If there is no n'th substring in s, then the
empty string should be returned. Note: You may use the string count method in this function.
Note: If a space follows a comma, do not include the space as part of the substring to be returned.

See sample runs below. As shown in the sample this function also prints the total weight of the items along with the max weight limit of 100 lbs. Hint: You can use the sum function in Python to calculate the sum of weights. E.g. sum(weights) will return the sum of all the items in the weights list. grab_item: Add a new item while enforcing the following policy: There is a limit of 4 on the number of items the wizard can carry and limit of 100 lbs on the total weight the wizard can carry. So specifically, if the wizard is already carrying 4 items, print message that “You can't carry anymore items. Drop something first.” And return out of the function. Otherwise prompt the user for the name and the weight of the new item. Next check whether with the addition of the new item, the total weight will exceed the limit of 100 lbs. If so, print a message saying weight…arrow_forwardpublic String firstAndLast(String str) { //declare and create your first char //declare and create your second char //return your first and last char as a String }arrow_forward
