Python Program to Count Number of Lowercase Characters in a String

When it is required to count the number of lowercase characters in a string, the string can be iterated over. It can be checked to see if it has lower case characters, and the counter can be incremented.

my_string = "Hi there how are you"
print("The string is :")
print(my_string)
my_counter=0
for i in my_string:
   if(i.islower()):
      my_counter=my_counter+1
print("The number of lowercase characters are :")
print(my_counter)

Output

The string is :
Hi there how are you
The number of lowercase characters are :
