Answer 1

There are few steps involved in this Problem :

• Clean the Punctuations.

• Sort the Array Based on Frequency.

  def wordCount(self,nums):
    nums = "Hello, number of transaction which happened, for,"
    nums=nums.lower().translate(None,string.punctuation).split()
    d = {}
    for i in nums:
      if i not in d:
      d[i] = 1
    else:
      d[i] = d[i]+1
   sorted_d = (sorted(d.items(), key = operator.itemgetter(1), reverse = True)
  
  for key,val in sorted_d:
   print key,val
