Well the fact that jails are overcrowded is one factor that shows it's not working. Some people need help from past traumas, abuse, etc. Not everyone that acts out needs to be incarcerated, they need rehabilitation or counseling. Definitely depends on the crime committed. Therefore substance abuse users would be in rehabilitation. Even Juveniles in detention centers don't benefit from incarceration for certain offenses. There is no rehabilitation in incarceration. There are more criminals in jail and incarceration in my opinion, only for some offenders, is the last option. Now for Sex Offenders, Murderers and Criminals with violent crimes my opinion is completely opposite. Some of those offenders should be dealt with according to their crime. Also, all of the people that have been pardoned and them lessening time for drug traffickers and actual drug dealers (not necessarily users) is just a bad thing to pardon them or let them out because they don't have any violent crimes. Isn't dealing drugs, that are killing people every single day just as bad as a violent crime. In my opinion they can sit and rot for the longevity of their sentence. Some need help and I would fully support that only under some circumstances. Others I would rather not have to live amongst them.

Write a function isRed() that accepts a string parameter and looks for the presence of the word ‘red’ in the string. If it is fo
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

Using the Python Programming Language:

def isRed(myString):

   if "red" in myString:

       return True

   else:

       return False

Explanation:

The function definition is given above. To output the result of calling this function, we declare a string variable and call the function inside a print statement. See the two lines of code below:

myString= "My house is coloured red"

print (isRed(myString))

Notice that we defined the function called isRed to receive a string as a parameter, Then using the in keyword with an if statement, we check for the presence of the word 'red' in the string that is passed as argument to the function, the function will then return True if the word 'red' is present or False if it is not.
