Hello there, I am having trouble completing these exercises from Starting Out With Python Third Edition:

Chapter 7 Exercise 6 Larger Than n

 

The a program, write a function that accepts two arguments: a list, and a number n. Assume that the list contains numbers. The function should display all of the number in the list that are greater than number n.

 

Chapter 8 Exercise 6

Average Number of words

 

Write a program that reads the file's contents and calculates the average number of words per sentence.

 

Here is my code:

 

def main():

  space = 0

 

   

  infile = open('text.txt', 'r')

 

  #Read data into a list.

 

  sentence = infile.read()

 

  #at the end of your function be sure to close the file

 

  infile.close()

 

  word = sentence.split(" ")

 

You can also download the text file.

 

  for word in sentence:

    word = len(word)

   

    space = space + 1

       

       

    print("The number of words in the sentence if", space, sep =" ")

       

     

   

main()

 

Chapter 9 Exercise 2

Write a program that creates a dictionary containing the U.S. States as key and their capitals as values. The program should then randomly quiz the user by displaying

the name of a state and asking the user to enter that state capital. the program should keep a count of the number of correct and incorrect responses.
