Syllable Count In Python

Question

I need to write a function that will read syllables in a word (for example, HAIRY is 2 syllables). I have my code shown on the bottom and I\'m confident it works in most ca

Answer 1

you could use this as well using lambda map

fun_check = lambda x: 1 if x in ["a","i","e","o","u","y","A","E","I","O","U","y"] else 0
sum(list(map(fun_check,"your_string")))

in single line

    sum(list(map(lambda x: 1 if x in ["a","i","e","o","u","y","A","E","I","O","U","y"] else 0,"your string")))
