We die soon poem Print the string Assign the string to a list Print the list Determine the number of words in the list and print the result in sentence form Write code to count the number of times the word "We" appears in the list and print out the result in sentence form Calculate the percentage of times "We' appears in the list and print out the result in sentence form

Explanation / Answer

list = []
poem = "We real cool. We left school. We lurk late. We strike straight. We sign sin. We thin gin. We jazz june. We die soon"
print(poem)
words = poem.split(" ")
for i in range (len(words)):
   list.append(words[i])
      
print("The number of words in the list is "+str(len(list)))
WeCount = 0
for i in range(len(list)):
   if list[i] == "We":
       WeCount = WeCount + 1
print("The number of times the word 'We' appears in list is "+str(WeCount))
percentage = (WeCount/float(len(list))) * 100
print ("The percentage of times the word 'We' appears in list is "+str(percentage))

Output:

sh-4.3$ python main.py
