Question

Solve it in Python

4. An alternade is a word in which its letters, taken alternatively in a strict sequence, and used in the same order as the original word, make up at least two other words. All letters must be used, but the smaller words are not necessarily of the same length. For example, a word with seven letters where every second letter is used will produce a four-letter word and a three-letter word. Here are two examples:

"board": makes "bad" and "or".

Write a function, alternade, that accepts as an argument the file name for the dictionary and then goes through each word in the list and tries to make two smaller words using every second letter. The smaller words must also be members of the list. Print the words to the screen in the above fashion.

Answer 1

I have written the code using PYTHON PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE.

INPUT :

board
alternade
word
letters
through
smaller
goes
function
examples
original
length

OUTPUT:

CODE:

#function definition for Alternade

def Alternade(filename):

#content of file , all words are in list now

wordslist = open("input.txt").readlines()

print(" ")#To print on console

#Accessing each word from wordslist

for i in range(len(wordslist)):

wordslist[i] = wordslist[i][:-1]#To remove enter last in each word

#to print the result on console

print("""+wordslist[i]+"": makes ""+wordslist[i][0::2]+"" and ""+wordslist[i][1::2]+""" )

if(__name__ == "__main__"):

Alternade("input.txt")#Calling Alternade

Thanks..
