5,348 PointsHow can I do this? {PYTHON}
Create a function named find_words that takes a count and a string. Return a list of all of the words in the string that are count word characters long or longer.
I tried a lot of things but nothing worked. So can someone please help?
import re
# EXAMPLE:
# >>> find_words(4, "dog, cat, baby, balloon, me")
# ['baby', 'balloon']
def find_words(num, string):
return re.findall(, string)
