Python String Coding Questions

1. The Spy’s Hidden Message

A secret agent from the Intelligence Bureau receives encrypted messages that are
written backward to hide their content.
To read them, you need to reverse the string and return the decoded message.

Example Test Cases:

Input: "nohtyP" → Output: "Python"

Input: "egassem" → Output: "message"
Input: "IA" → Output: "AI"
Input: "gnimmargorP" → Output: "Programming"
Input: "esrever" → Output: "reverse"

2. Song Analyzer – Count the Melody

A music app wants to analyze lyrics to measure how "melodic" they are by counting
vowels (a, e, i, o, u).
Your job is to return how many vowels appear in the given lyric line.

Example Test Cases:

Input: "Hello World" → Output: 3

Input: "Education Rocks" → Output: 6
Input: "Sky" → Output: 0
Input: "AI Tools" → Output: 4
Input: "Beautiful Day" → Output: 6

3. The Mirror Username

An online game wants usernames that read the same both ways for a “Mirror
Challenge”.
You must check if a given username is a palindrome. Return True or False.
Example Test Cases:

Input: "madam" → Output: True

Input: "level" → Output: True
Input: "python" → Output: False
Input: "noon" → Output: True
Input: "data" → Output: False

4. Password Inspector

A cybersecurity app validates passwords.

The rule: Passwords must contain at least one uppercase and one lowercase letter.
Print "Strong" if it meets the criteria, otherwise "Weak".

Example Test Cases:

Input: "Python3" → Output: Strong

Input: "HELLO" → Output: Weak
Input: "world" → Output: Weak
Input: "PyThOn" → Output: Strong
Input: "code123" → Output: Weak

5. Clean My Notes

A note-taking app wants to remove all spaces from user notes to save memory.
Write a program that removes all spaces from the given sentence.

Example Test Cases:

Input: "Python is fun" → Output: "Pythonisfun"

Input: " Hello " → Output: "Hello"
Input: "a b c" → Output: "abc"
Input: "Open AI" → Output: "OpenAI"
Input: " No Space " → Output: "NoSpace"

6. Character Frequency in Chat

A social app analyzes the frequency of each character in a message to detect spam
patterns.
Return a dictionary showing each character and its count.

Example Test Cases:

Input: "banana" → Output: {'b':1, 'a':3, 'n':2}

Input: "aabbcc" → Output: {'a':2, 'b':2, 'c':2}
Input: "hello" → Output: {'h':1, 'e':1, 'l':2, 'o':1}
Input: "Python" → Output: {'P':1, 'y':1, 't':1, 'h':1, 'o':1,
'n':1}
Input: "aaaa" → Output: {'a':4}

7. Extract the Email Domain

A college automation system needs to extract the domain name (after '@') from each
student’s email ID.

Example Test Cases:

Input: "user@[Link]" → Output: "[Link]"

Input: "student@[Link]" → Output: "[Link]"
Input: "info@[Link]" → Output: "[Link]"
Input: "abc@[Link]" → Output: "[Link]"
Input: "team@[Link]" → Output: "[Link]"

8. Message Flipper

A chat app creates “mock” versions of messages by swapping case (uppercase →

lowercase, lowercase → uppercase).

Example Test Cases:

Input: "Python" → Output: "pYTHON"

Input: "HELLO" → Output: "hello"
Input: "hello123" → Output: "HELLO123"
Input: "PyThOn" → Output: "pYtHoN"
Input: "Data" → Output: "dATA"
9. Auto Word Replacement

An AI writing tool replaces certain keywords with better suggestions.

Write a program that replaces a given word with a new one in a sentence.

Example Test Cases:

Input: "I like Java", "Java", "Python" → Output: "I like Python"
Input: "Hello world", "world", "AI" → Output: "Hello AI"
Input: "Data Science", "Data", "ML" → Output: "ML Science"
Input: "Old car", "car", "bike" → Output: "Old bike"
Input: "Smart watch", "watch", "phone" → Output: "Smart phone"

10. Word Twins (Anagram Check)

A puzzle app asks players to check if two given words contain the same characters in
different orders — i.e., anagrams.

Example Test Cases:

Input: "listen", "silent" → Output: True

Input: "earth", "heart" → Output: True
Input: "python", "typhon" → Output: True
Input: "hello", "world" → Output: False
Input: "data", "tada" → Output: True

11. Headline Word Counter

A blogging platform shows how many words are in an article headline.

Example Test Cases:

Input: "Python is fun" → Output: 3

Input: "AI is the future" → Output: 4
Input: "Hello" → Output: 1
Input: "ChatGPT from OpenAI" → Output: 3
Input: "Data Science Rocks" → Output: 3
12. Longest Word Finder

A dictionary app highlights the longest word in a sentence to suggest vocabulary

improvements.

Example Test Cases:

Input: "Python is amazing" → Output: "amazing"

Input: "AI is fast" → Output: "fast"
Input: "OpenAI creates ChatGPT" → Output: "ChatGPT"
Input: "Data Science" → Output: "Science"
Input: "I love coding" → Output: "coding"

13. Text Cleaner – Remove Punctuation

A text cleaning app removes punctuation marks before performing NLP analysis.

Example Test Cases:

Input: "Hello, world!" → Output: "Hello world"

Input: "[email protected]" → Output: "Python310"
Input: "It's fun!" → Output: "Its fun"
Input: "Hi...there??" → Output: "Hithere"
Input: "Good-day!" → Output: "Goodday"

14. Count Numbers in Username

An online portal ensures that usernames don’t contain too many digits.
Write a program to count digits in a given string.

Example Test Cases:

Input: "abc123" → Output: 3
