counter

This question already has an answer here: Letter Count on a string 11 answers I am trying to make a Python script which counts the amount of letters in a randomly chosen word for my Hangman game. I already looked around on the web, but most thing I could find was count specific letters in a word. After more looking around I ended up with this, which does not work for some reason. If someone could point out the errors, that'd be greatly appreciated. wordList = ["Tree", "Fish", "Monkey"] wordChosen = random.choice(wordList) wordCounter = wordChosen.lower().count['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f', 'g'

What is the best way of establishing the sum of all counts in a collections.Counter object? I've tried: sum(Counter([1,2,3,4,5,1,2,1,6])) but this gives 21 instead of 9 ? The code you have adds up the keys (i.e. the unique values in the list: 1+2+3+4+5+6=21 ). To add up the counts, use: In [4]: sum(Counter([1,2,3,4,5,1,2,1,6]).values()) Out[4]: 9 This idiom is mentioned in the documentation , under "Common patterns". Sum the values: sum(some_counter.values()) Demo: >>> from collections import Counter >>> c = Counter([1,2,3,4,5,1,2,1,6]) >>> sum(c.values()) 9 sum(Counter([1,2,3,4,5,1,2,1,6])

Im trying to find the number of whole words in a list of strings, heres the list mylist = ["Mahon Point retail park", "Finglas","Blackpool Mahon", "mahon point blanchardstown"] expected outcome: 4 1 2 3 There are 4 words in mylist[0], 1 in mylist[1] and so on for x, word in enumerate(mylist): for i, subwords in enumerate(word): print i Totally doesnt work.... What do you guys think? Use str.split : >>> mylist = ["Mahon Point retail park", "Finglas","Blackpool Mahon", "mahon point blanchardstown"] >>> for item in mylist: ... print len(item.split()) ... 4 1 2 3 The simplest way should be num

It's surprising how difficult it is to find a simple, concise answer to this question: I have a file, foo.zip, on my website What can I do to find out how many people have accessed this file? I could use Tomcat calls if necessary Update: If you suggest writing a script, can you point me to a decent one? Or you could parse the log file if you don't need the data in realtime. grep foo.zip /path/to/access.log | grep 200 | wc -l In reply to comment: The log file also contains bytes downloaded, but as someone else pointed out, this may not reflect the correct count if a user cancels the download on

I have a counter which animates to a final number which is defined in the HTML. However I would like this animation to happen once it's in the viewport. I have a fiddle here which shows how scrolling seems to effect the counter number. $(document).ready(function() { $(function($, win) { $.fn.inViewport = function(cb) { return this.each(function(i, el) { function visPx() { var H = $(this).height(), r = el.getBoundingClientRect(), t = r.top, b = r.bottom; return cb.call(el, Math.max(0, t > 0 ? H - t : (b < H ? b : H))); } visPx(); $(win).on("resize scroll", visPx); }); }; }(jQuery, window)); $("

Given a template metaprogram (TMP), do C++ compilers produce build statistics that count the number of instantiated classes? Or is there any other way to automatically get this number? So for e.g. the obiquitous factorial #include <iostream> template<int N> struct fact { enum { value = N * fact<N-1>::value }; }; template<> struct fact<1> { enum { value = 1 }; }; int main() { const int x = fact<3>::value; std::cout << x << "\n"; return 0; } I would like to get back the number 3 (since fact<3>, fact<2>, and fact<1> are instantiated). This example if of course trivial, but whenever you start

I want to get the count of missed calls and unread messages in my application. and I'd like to open the relevant application when user click on the count. Now biggest problem is how to get the count? I searched online but couldn't find any solution. Thanks in advance. http://developer.android.com/reference/android/provider/CallLog.Calls.html Take a look at this CallLog class. All you need is to query the phone for any calls then extract missed one (оr do this when you are querying the phone, in the selection arguments). The same applies for the messages.
