You have to program several functions. In each case, few lines of code are enough.

  1. Write a function vowel_consonant(s) that given an string s returns the number of vowels and consonants that appear as characters in s. We assume all characters of s are letters.
  2. Write a function delete_digits(s) that returns the string obtained after ruling out the digit characters of s.
  3. Write a function switch(s) that given an string s returns the string obtained after switching lowercase to uppercase letters and the other way around. Non letter characters do not change. Warning: do not use the swapcase string method.
  4. Write a function countdown(n) that given an integer n greater than zero prints the count down until 0.
  5. Write a function powers_of_2(n) that given a natural n≥ 1 prints the n first powers of 2.

Scoring

Every function counts 20 points.

Sample session
>>> vowel_consonant("SpartacUs")
(3, 6)
>>> delete_digits("#Pelham 1-2-3#")
#Pelham --#
>>> switch("#Pelham 1-2-3#")
#pELHAM 1-2-3#
>>> countdown(7)
7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
>>> powers_of_2(6)
1 2 4 8 16 32
