Question
Python please:
Write a program with an input that is a string and a number. Output the first character in the string and then the character that is the number's distance away from the previous character, repeating for the remainder of the string as long as the string is longer than the increment number. Your output wording should match the below examples.
For example, if the input is
hello 2
the output is
h l o
If the string contains fewer characters than the input number, as in
cat 4
the output is
The integer can't be higher than the string length.
For coding simplicity, output a space after every character, including the last.

- 2. Generate a random string of length 10 that contains only lowercase alphabets from 'a' to 'z'. Print the string in the output.arrow_forwardGiven a string, check if the string contains only uppercase letters or only lowercase letters or both. Print “Uppercase Letters”, “Lowercase Letters” or “Uppercase Letters and Lowercase Letters” for corresponding case. Write in python pleasearrow_forward3.Use a Python string method for each of these: - determine if a string cost contains only numbers. - return how many times the letter 'e' appears in a string called sentence - return the number of characters in a string tmp 4. Exact Output – EXPLAIN WHAT HAPPENED! sentence = "Hi Bye"; tmp = sentence.split(" "); print(tmp) sentence = “hello!" tmp = sentence.split(" "); print(tmp) 5. Use the Python string method join to - Create a new string that consists of lastName with a comma and a space followed by the firstName %3D firstName = "Sue"; lastName = "Jones" %3D - Create a phone number in the form ###-###-#### out of 3 strings areaCode = "701";_prefix = "477"; lastPart="2339"arrow_forward
- python Write a program that accepts sequence of text lines as input and prints the lines with all characters in upper case. Example: If the input is: Hello world Practice makes perfect The output should be: HELLO WORLD PRACTICE MAKES PERFECTarrow_forward1. Write a program that reads a number between 1,000 and 999,999 from the user, where the user enters a comma in the input. Then print the number without a comma. Here is a sample dialog; the user input is in color: Please enter an integer between 1,000 and 999,999: 23,456 23456 Hint: Read the input as a string. Measure the length of the string. Suppose it contains n characters. Then extract substrings consisting of the first n - 4 characters and the last three characters.arrow_forwardWrite a program that prompts the user for a month name and a month day. Your program will examine the month and the day to determine the season. Your program will then display the date's season (Winter, Spring, Summer or Autumn). The input is a string to represent the month and an int to represent the day. See chart below for the range of dates within seasons. Ex: If the input is: April 11 the output is: Spring The dates for each season in the northern hemisphere are:Spring: March 20 - June 20Summer: June 21 - September 21Autumn: September 22 - December 20Winter: December 21 - March 19arrow_forward
- 3 – Write a python program that prompt the user to enter a string and count the number of words and characters in that string without using built-in methods.arrow_forwardfor python programming make a program, that has a function that takes in a string argument and prints a sentence indicating the shortest word in that string. If there is more than one word print only the first. Your print statement should read: “The shortest word is x” Where x = the shortest word. The word should be all uppercase.arrow_forward
