Python: Count number of non-empty substrings of a given string
Python String: Exercise-77 with Solution
Write a Python program to count number of non-empty substrings of a given string.
Sample Solution:-
Python Code:
def number_of_substrings(str):
str_len = len(str);
return int(str_len * (str_len + 1) / 2);
str1 = input("Input a string: ")
print("Number of substrings:")
print(number_of_substrings(str1))
Sample Output:
Input a string: w3resource Number of substrings: 55

Python: Tips of the Day
Check if a given key already exists in a dictionary:
In is the intended way to test for the existence of a key in a dict.
d = {"key1": 10, "key2": 23} if "key1" in d: print("this will execute") if "nonexistent key" in d: print("this will not")
If you wanted a default, you can always use dict.get():
d = dict() for i in range(100): key = i % 10 d[key] = d.get(key, 0) + 1
and if you wanted to always ensure a default value for any key you can either use dict.setdefault() repeatedly or defaultdict from the collections module, like so:
from collections import defaultdict d = defaultdict(int) for i in range(100): d[i % 10] += 1
but in general, the in keyword is the best way to do it.
