Im in the middle of designing a game in python, im quite new to using it and am
struggling with a certain bit of code. I want to have a function that will
ignore certain words that i have specified in a dictionary. I have tried so
many different types of code but can't seem to return just the keywords i want.
the dictionary is called skip_words and has about 20 different strings in.
so far i came up with:
def filter_words(words, skip_words):
word = words.strip(skip_words)
return word
The function should read an input such as help me please and filter out the
words "please" and "me" as they are in the dictionary and just return the word
help as the input.
>>>filter_words(["help", "me", "please"], ["me", "please"])
['help']
That doesn't work but i just assume it is a very simple bit of code.
any suggestions of a way that works?
Thanks:) T
