Python data structures: Assignment 9.4

Coursera: Python data structures
Assignment 9.4
Week 5

9.4 Write a program to read through the mbox-short.txt and figure out who has sent the greatest number of mail messages. The program looks for 'From ' lines and takes the second word of those lines as the person who sent the mail. The program creates a Python dictionary that maps the sender's mail address to a count of the number of times they appear in the file. After the dictionary is produced, the program reads through the dictionary using a maximum loop to find the most prolific committer.

Solution:

name = input("Enter file:")
if len(name) < 1 : name = "mbox-short.txt"
handle = open(name)
count = dict()
for line in handle:
    word = line.split()
    if line.startswith('From '):
        count[word[1]] = count.get(word[1], 0) + 1

largest = 0
email = ''
for key in count:
    if  count[key] > largest:
        largest = count[key]
        email = key
print(email, largest)

Python data structure: Assignment 8.4

Coursera : Python data structures Assignment 8.4 Week 4 8.4  Open the file  romeo.txt  and read it line by line. For each line, split the line into a list of words using the  split()  method. The program should build a list of words. For each word on each line check to see if the word is already in the list and if not append it to the list. When the program completes, sort and print the resulting words in alphabetical order. You can download the sample data at  http://www.py4e.com/code3 Solution: fname = input("Enter file name: ") fh = open(fname) lst = list() for line in fh:     for i in line.rstrip().split(' '):         lst.append(i) lst = list(set(lst)) lst.sort() print(lst) Coursera official website: https://www.coursera.org/learn/python-data/home/welcome
