Question 1 (Points: 7.0): Kanye’s Wildest Quotes Tracker 🎤🔥#

Kanye’s interviews are full of unpredictable statements. We need a function to track what he says and detect the wildest moments.

The program should:

  1. Accept an arbitrary number of Kanye quotes using *args.

  2. Detect if any quote exceeds 500 characters, and print a warning if detected.

  3. Calculate the total length of all Kanye’s statements and return it.

  4. Allow an optional alert_threshold parameter using **kwargs to adjust the warning limit dynamically.

Implementation Details#

  1. Define a function track_kanye(*args, **kwargs).

  2. Loop through all *args values and:

    • Print a warning message if any quote exceeds 500 characters or the provided alert_threshold from **kwargs.

  3. Calculate the total length of all quotes.

  4. Return the total character count.

# Define the function to monitor Kanye quotes
...

    # Extract the alert threshold from the keyword arguments
    # Recall kwargs is a dictionary, and thus we can use the get method to extract the value of the key "alert_threshold"
    ...
    
    # Initialize an empty list to store warnings
    ...
    
    # Iterate over the quotes and check if any quote exceeds the alert threshold
    # If a quote exceeds the alert threshold, append a warning to the warnings list
    # we have provided a sample warning message for you to use, look at the call to determine the correct variable to use
    ...
            warnings.append(f"⚠️ Warning: Extremely long Kanye quote detected ({len(quote)} characters)!")

    # Calculate the total length of all quotes
    # We can use a generator expression to calculate the total length of all quotes
    # Store the total length in a variable called total_length
    ...
    
    # Return the total length of all quotes and the warnings
    ...
