Question

Please answer it in Python

  • Write a function last_consonant that takes as an argument a word and returns two return values: the index of its last consonant as well as the last consonant (as for lists, we will consider that the index of the first letter is zero). We will not deal with the problematic case where the word does not contain a consonant.

Example: last_consonant('arrivee') returns 4, 'v'

  • Write a function double_consonant that takes as an argument a word and has two return values: a Boolean worth True if the word contains a double consonant (twice the same consonant in a row), and in this case the second return value is the consonant that is doubled; If there is no doubled consonant, the function must return False and None.  If the word contains several double consonants (for example, 'successor'), true will be returned and the first double consonant appearing in the word.

Examples:

double_consonant('arrive') is true, 'r'.

double_consonant ('candy') is false, None

double_consonant ('success') is True, 's'

double_consonant ('successor') is True, 'c'
