Python: Check whether a given string is an "isogram" or not

Python Basic - 1: Exercise-85 with Solution

From Wikipedia:
An isogram (also known as a "nonpattern word") is a logological term for a word or phrase without a repeating letter. It is also used by some people to mean a word or phrase in which each letter appears the same number of times, not necessarily just once. Conveniently, the word itself is an isogram in both senses of the word, making it autological.
Write a Python program to check whether a given string is an "isogram" or not.

Sample Solution:

Python Code:

# Define a function to check if a string is an isogram
def check_isogram(str1):
    # Convert the string to lowercase and check if its length is equal to the length of its set
    return len(str1) == len(set(str1.lower()))

# Test cases
print(check_isogram("w3resource"))
print(check_isogram("w3r"))
print(check_isogram("Python"))
print(check_isogram("Java"))

Sample Output:

False
True
True
False

Explanation:

Here is a breakdown of the above Python code:

  • The function "check_isogram()" takes a string 'str1' as input.
  • It converts the string to lowercase using "lower()" to make the comparison case-insensitive.
  • It checks if the length of the string is equal to the length of its set, ensuring all characters are unique.
  • The function returns 'True' if the string is an isogram and 'False' otherwise.
  • Test cases demonstrate the function's functionality for different input strings.
