Question
Please write in python. Thank you.

Transcribed Image Text:Objectives
Practice defining functions with parameters. Practice manipulating strings.
Implement your own version of Python string methods
The provided file sring_functions.py defines several string functions, but does not include the
code for them. Add code to implement functions that are equivalent in behavior to the
corresponding built-in Python string function. Every function MUST return a value.
Use loops to implement your functions. You cannot use built-in string methods, string
functions, or string-operators to implement your functions. Each funetion is worth a maximum
of 10 points.
1. cs110_upper: Takes a string as a parameter and returns it as a string in all uppercase.
Hint: Use the ord () function to get the ASCI value of a character. For example, ord ('a')
returns the integer 97. You will also need to use the chr (value) function that returns a string
of one character whose ASCII code is the integer value. For example, chr (97) returns the
string 'a'. You cannot use the built-in string function upper () for this.
2. cs110_1strip: Takes a string as a parameter and returns the same string with the
whitespace stripped out from the left side of the string.
3. cs110_replace: Takes a string and two characters (charl and char2) as parameters and
returns a string with charl replaced by char2 in the string.
4. cs110_in: Takes a long string and a short string as parameters and returns True if the short
string is contained in the long string, and False if it is not.
5. cs110_title: Takes a string and retums a string with the first character capitalized for
every word. The rest of the characters are in lower case. For example, if the input to the function
is "I like Python a lot", the function should return a string that looks like "I Like Python A Lot".
Note: The point of this lab is for you to use loop: to reimplement the string functions. You may
not use Python's built-in string methodas or operators to implement yours – for example, in,
. upper (), .isUpper (), .strip (), .split (). You may use these Python functions:
len (), ord (), str (). If you are not sure whether you can use a specific function or method,
ask in Piazza.
