- [Instructor] In this self check exercise

2
00:00:02,190 --> 00:00:04,940
I'd like you to use some of
the techniques we demonstrated

3
00:00:04,940 --> 00:00:07,340
in the preceding video,

4
00:00:07,340 --> 00:00:11,400
to locate all words starting
with t in the string,

5
00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:13,770
to be or not to be that is the question.

6
00:00:13,770 --> 00:00:15,560
So go ahead and create that loop

7
00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:16,490
and make sure it works,

8
00:00:16,490 --> 00:00:18,403
and then come back to see my answer.

9
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:26,260
Okay, let's go ahead
and reveal that answer.

10
00:00:26,260 --> 00:00:28,870
As you can see here, we created a for loop

11
00:00:28,870 --> 00:00:32,500
that is going to assign
to the target variable

12
00:00:33,420 --> 00:00:36,046
the result of this expression,

13
00:00:36,046 --> 00:00:39,100
to be or not to be that
is the question dot split.

14
00:00:39,100 --> 00:00:41,850
So as you may recall,
the split method is going

15
00:00:41,850 --> 00:00:46,203
to break apart the string
into individual tokens

16
00:00:46,203 --> 00:00:48,790
by default at the whitespace characters

17
00:00:48,790 --> 00:00:51,700
and that will give me
back a list of strings.

18
00:00:51,700 --> 00:00:53,730
For every word in that list,

19
00:00:53,730 --> 00:00:55,270
we're going to check the word

20
00:00:55,270 --> 00:00:58,290
to see if it starts with
the letter lowercase t

21
00:00:58,290 --> 00:01:00,400
and if so, we will print that word,

22
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:02,780
separated from the next by a space.

23
00:01:02,780 --> 00:01:04,660
So if I go ahead and execute that,

24
00:01:04,660 --> 00:01:07,090
you can see we get to to that the.

25
00:01:07,090 --> 00:01:10,850
And we have to to that and the

26
00:01:10,850 --> 00:01:13,580
are the four words within
the original string

27
00:01:13,580 --> 00:01:16,163
that started with a lowercase t.
