here’s how you can solve using python 3.

  1. take a substring of the same length as konami code, here 10
  2. declare an insatance counter variable, if that substring is konami code, add 1 to the instance count
  3. when you reac h the end of the input, print the instance count

It is easy for python 3. It just needs a line to be solved.
. Just take a string
. And count the ‘konami code’ from there uaing count method.
. Then print that.

thanks a lot. I was in misconfusion.

konami = str(input())
con=""
li = list(konami)
m=10
count=0
i=0
lenth = len(li)
for i in range(lenth):
    for j in range(i,m):
        con += li[j]
        if con=="UUDDLRLRBA":
            count+=1
    m+=1
    con=""
    if m>=lenth:
        break
print(count)

what is the problem my code
test case 7 has run time eroor

JewelScientist list needs to be used here
only input_string.count(‘UUDDLRLRBA’)
