In a rain shadow it's warm and dry. On the other side of the mountain, it's wet and cool. when air mass moves from a low elevation to a high elevation, it expands and cools. this air forms clouds, which drop rain and snow,as it rises up a mountain. After the air mass crosses over the peak of the mountain and starts down the other side,The air warms up and the clouds dissipate. That means there is less rainfall.

Write a Python program called wdcount.py which uses a dictionary to count the number of occurrences of each word (ignoring case)
Art [367]

The program is an illustration of loops.

<h3>What are loops?</h3>

Loops are program statements used to perform repetition

<h3>The wordcount.py program</h3>

The program written in Python, where comments are used to explain each line is as follows

# This opens the file in read mode

text = open("myFile.txt", "r")

# This creates an empty dictionary

d = dict()

#This iterates through the text

for line in text:

# This splits the line into words, after removing leading & trailing spaces, and newline characters

words = line.strip().lower().split(" ")

# This iterates through all the words

for word in words:

 # The following if condition counts the occurrence of each word

 if word in d:

  d[word] = d[word] + 1

 else:

  d[word] = 1

#This prints the words and their frequencies, in descending order

for w in sorted(d, key=d.get, reverse=True):

   print(w, d[w])
