I am currently learning Python and have come across a very strange problem (to me at least). When I type this code:
def search4vowels(word):
"""Display any vowels found in a supplied word."""
vowels = set('aeiou')
found = vowels.intersection(set(word))
return bool(found)
in an IDLE edit window and run it using IDLE, it all works fine and I need to type my function in at the prompt in order for it to start.
However, when I write the same code in Visual Studio Code and run it using the Run Python file in Terminal option all I get is:
I have also tried the Code Runner extension and that gives me a blank output page and no way to type in the function.
For example : search4vowels('galaxy')
And the output that I expect should be: True
(Because a vowel would be present in the word, therefore True)
However, nothing happens.
You are defining function search4vowels()
, but Visual Studio Code doesn't know how to run it.
Try adding this in your code:
def search4vowels(word):
"""Display any vowels found in a supplied word."""
vowels = set('aeiou')
found = vowels.intersection(set(word))
return bool(found)
# This tells your code to run the function search4vowels():
if __name__ == '__main__':
print(search4vowels('your word'))
Here is the manual page about the word "__main__"
.
