Python: Find the characters which occur in more than and less than a given number in list of strings
Python Collections: Exercise-25 with Solution
Write a Python program to find the characters in a list of strings which occur more than and less than a given number.
Sample Solution:
Python Code:
from collections import Counter
from itertools import chain
def max_aggregate(list_str, N):
temp = (set(sub) for sub in list_str)
counts = Counter(chain.from_iterable(temp))
gt_N = [chr for chr, count in counts.items() if count > N]
lt_N = [chr for chr, count in counts.items() if count < N]
return gt_N, lt_N
list_str = ['abcd', 'iabhef', 'dsalsdf', 'sdfsas', 'jlkdfgd']
print("Original list:")
print(list_str)
N = 3
result = max_aggregate(list_str, N)
print("\nCharacters of the said list of strings which occur more than:",N)
print(result[0])
print("\nCharacters of the said list of strings which occur less than:",N)
print(result[1])
Sample Output:
Original list: ['abcd', 'iabhef', 'dsalsdf', 'sdfsas', 'jlkdfgd'] Characters of the said list of strings which occur more than: 3 ['a', 'd', 'f'] Characters of the said list of strings which occur less than: 3 ['c', 'b', 'h', 'e', 'i', 's', 'l', 'k', 'j', 'g']

Python: Tips of the Day
Inverts a dictionary with unique hashable values:
Example:
def tips_invert_dictionary(obj): return { value: key for key, value in obj.items() } ages = { "Owen": 29, "Eddie": 15, "Jhon": 22, } print(tips_invert_dictionary(ages))
Output:
{29: 'Owen', 15: 'Eddie', 22: 'Jhon'}
