Hi Guys,
Very simple question, I imagine.
this code throws of off a "counter not defined error".
Can you help?
*def word_counter(word, string):*
* counter = 0*
* for item in string:*
* if item == word:*
* counter = counter + 1*
*print counter*
Tim Johnson
counter only exists within the scope of the word_counter function, the
print statement is outside of that scope. Shifting the print statement
right four spaces should do the trick.
