This is a Python program you'll be asked questions about. When this Python program runs, it reads a file and stores it in memory, and prints some information about the text stored in the file.

When the program runs, the following output appears on the screen/in a terminal window

total # chars 4345018
number of z's 2073
a 257427
e 408889
i 180213
o 233757
u 82949

The first thing printed when the program runs is total # chars = 4345018. What do you think is the name of the variable that stores the number 4345018? *

total

The second thing printed is total # z's 2073. What do you think is the name of the function that counts the z's? *

count

len

There are seven lines of output. Which of the following explains how those lines are output? *

There are 8 lines of code. Every line except the first one results in output

Print statements result in output. The last print statement is executed once but prints five lines.

Print statements result in output. The last print statement is executed five times.

Output happens when the program ends, all variables that have a value are printed out with their value.

Do you think that when the program counts/calculates the number of z's, a's, e's, i's, o's, and u's that the program reads/scans the entire text of the file stored in memory and accessed via the variable st? That is, does it scan the entire text six times, once for each of the letters z, a, e, i, o and u? Or is the text only scanned once by the program rather than six times? Why do you think that? *

How correct do you think this program is? That is how certain are you that it calculates the number of z's from the file correctly, number of e's correctly, etc. *

extremely certain it is correct

somewhat certain it is correct

not convinced that it is correct
