PROGRAM BASED QUESTIONS:
35. Write program in Python to input a line and display the occurrence of the word 'are'.
For example, if the line is:
Books are referred to as a man’s best friend. They are very beneficial for
mankind and have helped it evolve. Books leave a deep impact on us and are
responsible for uplifting our mood.
The output should be 3.
36. Write a Program to Count the Number of Vowels in a String.
37. Write a program to remove vowels from the original string using string function.
38. Write a program to find and display all the words longer than 5 characters in a string.
39. Write a program to find the shortest word in a line.
40. Write a program in python to input the string where every Nth alphabet of the
word is replaced with an underscore ("_").
For example: if string contains the word "TELEVISION" and N is 3, then the m
function should return the string "TE_EV_SI_N". Likewise for the word
"TELEVISION" if N is 4, then the function should return "TEL_VIS_ON".
