I am trying to count the word fizz using python. However it is giving me an error.
def fizz_count(x):
count =0
for item in x :
if item== "fizz":
count=count+1
return count
item= ["fizz","cat", "fizz", "Dog", "fizz"]
example= fizz_count(item)
print example
i checked with indentation but still it does not work. Where i am doing wrong?
Your indentation seems to be incorrect, and you should not have the first return count (why would you return count as soon as you define it??).
def fizz_count(x):
count = 0
for item in x:
if item == "fizz":
count += 1 # equivalent to count = count + 1
return count
item = ["fizz", "cat", "fizz", "Dog", "fizz"]
example = fizz_count(item)
print example
Please try the following code: remove return count right after count = 0
There are also a few indentation changes.
def fizz_count(x):
count = 0
for item in x:
if item== "fizz":
count=count+1
return count
item = ["fizz","cat", "fizz", "Dog", "fizz"]
example = fizz_count(item)
print example
the problem is the identation in your line return
Try with this:
def fizz_count(x):
count =0
for item in x :
if item == "fizz":
count += 1
return count
You do not need the first 'return' statement in your code. It works as follows, with indentation and spacing fixed:
def fizz_count(x):
count = 0
for item in x:
if item == "fizz":
count = count + 1
return count
item= ["fizz","cat", "fizz", "Dog", "fizz"]
example = fizz_count(item)
print example
Well i am new to python world. What i learned is return statement should be some thing like this.
Example one :-
def split_train_test(data, test_ratio):
shuffled_indices = np.random.permutation(len(data))
test_set_size = int(len(data) * test_ratio)
test_indices = shuffled_indices[:test_set_size]
train_indices = shuffled_indices[test_set_size:]
return data.iloc[train_indices],data.iloc[test_indices]
Example two :-
def load_housing_data(housing_path=HOUSING_PATH):
csv_path = os.path.join(housing_path, "housing.csv")
return pd.read_csv(csv_path)
