Write a function called ascii_caps() that takes a single list of characters as the input parameter and returns a new list of integers that contains the ASCII codes of the uppercase characters in the input list. Sample run, >>> print(ascii_caps(['H', 'e', 'l', 'L', 'o', 'W', 'o', 'r', 'l', 'D'])) [72, 76, 87, 68] Note that the ASCII codes for H', L', 'W', 'D' are 72, 76, 87, and 68, respectively. Hint: you may want to use ord() and chr() functions in your solutions.

Question

Write a function called ascii_caps() that takes a single list of characters as the input
parameter and returns a new list of integers that contains the ASCII codes of the uppercase
characters in the input list.
Sample run,
>>> print(ascii_caps(['H', 'e', 'l', 'L', 'o', 'W', 'o', 'r', 'l',
'D']))
[72, 76, 87, 68]
Note that the ASCII codes for H', L', 'W', 'D' are 72, 76, 87, and 68, respectively.
Hint: you may want to use ord() and chr() functions in your solutions.
2) Add a function named read_string() that takes a string parameter and prints the
following to the terminal.
• prints if the input string starts with “s” and ends with “e”.
• prints the total number of characters in the string
• prints the total number of words in the string
• prints how many words of the input string contain the letter “a” in it.
• prints all the positions (index values) of the letter ‘a’ in the string, if ‘a’ appears in the
string.
