farm. How many rabbits and how many chickens do we have?

Hint:
Use for loop to iterate all possible solutions.

the characters that have even indexes.

Example:
If the following string is given as input to the program:

H1e2l3l4o5w6o7r8l9d

Question 4:

Please write a program which count and print the numbers of each
character in a string input by console.

Example:
If the following string is given as input to the program:

c,2
b,2
e,1
d,1
g,1
f,1

Hints:
Use dict to store key/value pairs.
Use dict.get() method to lookup a key with default value.

*******************************************************

Question 5:

Define a class named Shape and its subclass Square. The Square class
has an init function which takes a length as argument. Both classes
have a area function which can print the area of the shape where
Shape's area is 0 by default.

Hints:

To override a method in super class, we can define a method with the

same name in the super class.

*******************************************************

Question 6:

Write a function to compute 5/0 and use try/except to catch the

exceptions.
Hints:

Use try/except to catch exceptions.

*******************************************************

Question 7:

Assuming that we have some email addresses in the

"username@companyname.com" format, please write program to print the
user name of a given email address. Both user names and company
names are composed of letters only.

Example:
If the following email address is given as input to the program:

john@google.com

Then, the output of the program should be:

john

In case of input data being supplied to the question, it should be

assumed to be a console input.

Hints:

Use \w to match letters.

*******************************************************

Question 8:

Write a program which accepts a sequence of words separated by

whitespace as input to print the words composed of digits only.

Example:
If the following words is given as input to the program:

2 cats and 3 dogs.

Then, the output of the program should be:

['2', '3']

In case of input data being supplied to the question, it should be

assumed to be a console input.
Hints:

Use re.findall() to find all substring using regex.

*******************************************************

Question 9:

Write a program to compute 1/2+2/3+3/4+...+n/n+1 with a given n

input by console (n>0).

Example:
If the following n is given as input to the program:

Then, the output of the program should be:

3.55

In case of input data being supplied to the question, it should be

assumed to be a console input.

Hints:
Use float() to convert an integer to a float

*******************************************************

Question 10:

Write a program to compute:

f(n)=f(n-1)+100 when n>0

and f(0)=1

with a given n input by console (n>0).

Example:
If the following n is given as input to the program:

Then, the output of the program should be:

500

In case of input data being supplied to the question, it should be

assumed to be a console input.

Hints:
We can define recursive function in Python.

*******************************************************

Question 11:

A website requires the users to input username and password to

register. Write a program to check the validity of password input by
users.
Following are the criteria for checking the password:
1. At least 1 letter between [a-z]
2. At least 1 number between [0-9]
1. At least 1 letter between [A-Z]
3. At least 1 character from [$#@]
4. Minimum length of transaction password: 6
5. Maximum length of transaction password: 12
Your program should accept a sequence of comma separated passwords
and will check them according to the above criteria. Passwords that
match the criteria are to be printed, each separated by a comma.
Example
If the following passwords are given as input to the program:
ABd1234@1,a F1#,2w3E*,2We3345
Then, the output of the program should be:
ABd1234@1

Hints:
In case of input data being supplied to the question, it should be
assumed to be a console input.

******************************************************

Question 12:

You are required to write a program to sort the (name, age, height)
tuples by ascending order where name is string, age and height are
numbers. The tuples are input by console. The sort criteria is:
1: Sort based on name;
2: Then sort based on age;
3: Then sort by score.
The priority is that name > age > score.
If the following tuples are given as input to the program:
Tom,19,80
John,20,90
Jony,17,91
Jony,17,93
Json,21,85
Then, the output of the program should be:
[('John', '20', '90'), ('Jony', '17', '91'), ('Jony', '17', '93'),
('Json', '21', '85'), ('Tom', '19', '80')]

Hints:
In case of input data being supplied to the question, it should be
assumed to be a console input.
We use itemgetter to enable multiple sort keys.

******************************************************

Question 13:
Define a class with a generator which can iterate the numbers, which
are divisible by 7, between a given range 0 and n.

Hints:
Consider use yield

******************************************************

Question 14:

A robot moves in a plane starting from the original point (0,0). The
robot can move toward UP, DOWN, LEFT and RIGHT with a given steps.
The trace of robot movement is shown as the following:
UP 5
DOWN 3
LEFT 3
RIGHT 2

The numbers after the direction are steps. Please write a program to
compute the distance from current position after a sequence of
movement and original point. If the distance is a float, then just
print the nearest integer.
Example:
If the following tuples are given as input to the program:
UP 5
DOWN 3
LEFT 3
RIGHT 2
Then, the output of the program should be:
2

Hints:
In case of input data being supplied to the question, it should be
assumed to be a console input.

******************************************************

Question 15:
Write a program to compute the frequency of the words from the
input. The output should output after sorting the key
alphanumerically.
Suppose the following input is supplied to the program:
New to Python or choosing between Python 2 and Python 3? Read Python
2 or Python 3.
Then, the output should be:
2:2
3.:1
3?:1
New:1
Python:5
Read:1
and:1
between:1
choosing:1
or:2
to:1

Hints
In case of input data being supplied to the question, it should be
assumed to be a console input.
