Assignment 11 — string analysis

Due time: Thursday February 6

---

Download

• Program vowely.py

---

Problem

• Develop a program vowely.py that separately reports on the vowel usage in some user-specified text.

---

Suggestion

• When doing string analysis it is sometimes helpful to put a string in standard (canonical) form.

• Often that form is a stripped, lower case version of the string.

• Doing so here, makes the counting easier — for example, there is no need to separately count the number of a's and A's.

---

Fact

• My solution uses a loop. Yours does not have to, but doing so could prove helpful in future endeavors.
