8,481 Pointsthought get_anagram("treehouse"), "house") would work, but it doesn't
Trying to create a test using assertIn to make sure that "house" is in "treehouse", but this isn't working. Any help?
class AnagramTests(unittest.TestCase):
def test_in_anagrams(self):
self.assertIn(get_anagrams("treehouse"), "house")
import unittest
from string_fun import get_anagrams
class AnagramTests(unittest.TestCase):
def test_in_anagrams(self):
self.assertIn(get_anagrams("treehouse"), "house")
import itertools
def is_palindrome(yarn):
"""Return whether or not a string is a palindrome.
A palindrome is a word/phrase that's the same in
both directions.
"""
return yarn == yarn[::-1]
def get_anagrams(*yarn):
"""Return a list of anagrams for a string."""
# If only one letter came in, return it
if yarn:
if len(yarn[0]) <= 1:
return list(yarn)
else:
raise ValueError("Must provide at least two letters")
# Get all of the words from the dictionary
words = set([
w.strip().lower() for w in open('words.txt')
])
output = set()
for thread in yarn:
thread = thread.lower()
# Find all possible anagrams
for i in range(2, len(thread)):
fibers = set(
[''.join(w) for w in itertools.permutations(thread, i)]
)
output.update(fibers.intersection(words))
# Finally, return all of the combinations that are in the dictionary
return sorted(list(output))

assertIn(x, y) - Make sure x is a member of y (this is like the in keyword)
So to make sure that "house" is in "treehouse" you would need to reverse what you have:
self.assertIn("house", get_anagrams("treehouse"))
