 def count(w,l):
     count = 0
     for letter in w:
         if letter == l:
             count = count + 1
     print count

 Exercise 6.4 There is a string method called count that is similar to the function in the previous
 exercise. Read the documentation of this method at docs.python.org/library/string.

 Exercise 6.5 Take the following Python code that stores a string:‘
 str = ’X-DSPAM-Confidence:0.8475’
-

 '''
 s ='X-DSPAM-Confidence:0.8475'
 a=s.find(':')
 b=s[a+1:len(s)]

 Exercise 6.6 Read the documentation of the string methods at docs.python.org/lib/
 string-methods.html. You might want to experiment with some of them to make sure you
 understand how they work. strip and replace are particularly useful.

 s='softvision'
 print strip(s,'soft')
 print replace(s,'soft','hard')
