Challenge 1: Letter count

word = input("Enter a word: ")
letter = input("Enter a letter: ")

num1 = int(input("Enter the first number: "))
num2 = int(input("Enter the second number: "))
for i in range(num1,num2+1):
print(i)

Challenge 3: Average calculator

average_of = int(input("Enter the number of numbers you want to average: "))
total = 0
for i in range(average_of):
num = int(input("Enter a number: "))
total = total + num
average = total/average_of
print("The average of these {average_of} numbers is {average}.")
