"do", "for", "you", ";", "ask", "what", "you", "can",
"do", "for", "your", "country")
print("Total number of tokens:")
print(len(tokens))

token = "country";
print("The token '%s' occured %d number of times in the tuple"%(token, tokens.count(token)))

token = "you";
print("The token '%s' occured %d number of times in the tuple"%(token, tokens.count(token)))
