Program Plan Intro
Operator “in”:
- • The easiest way to search an item in a list is by means of “in” operator.
- • The “in” operator in Python determines whether the searching item is present in a list.
- • If the searching item is present in the list, then this operator returns a “True” value.
- • If the searching item is not present in the list, then this operator returns a “False” value.
Algorithm to find whether the name “Ruby” is present in the “names” list is as follows:
- • Create a list of strings that stores names and assigns it to “names”.
- • Then, use the “in” operator along with “if” statement to check whether the name “Ruby” is present in the list “names”.
- • If the name “Ruby” is present in the “names” list, then print the message “Hello Ruby”.
- • If the name “Ruby” is not present in the “names” list, then print the message “No Ruby”.

Alternate Character DisplayWrite a method that accepts a String object as an argument and then returns the alternate characters as substring starting from index 0. For instance, if the string argument passed is “GREAT”, the method should return “GET”. Demonstrate the method in a program that asks the user to input a string and then passes it to the method.
Write code to removes a name from a string after the name has been inserted.
use c# lang.
Programming language: SWIFT
Write a function that takes a string as a parameter and returns the string "Swift" if the string passed as
parameter begins with "SWIFT" or "swift". Otherwise, returns an empty string.

A palindrome is a word, number, phrase, or other sequence of characters which reads the same backward as forward, such as “SIR”,“raceBIKE”, “Never odd or even”, “20/1/20”. The program should prompt the user to typein a phrase that is at least three characters long, and then tell the user whether the phrasewas a palindrome. Note, the decision should be based solely on letters and numericaldigits, and so it should not consider other characters, such as spaces or exclamationmarks, even though these might be entered by the user. when checking palindromes.A.
