| Oct 31, 2016 at 6:13 | comment | added | Austin | Sorry I'll try to re-explain. I have a list of words that is too big for me to manually look through. I want to print out to my terminal each word in the list that is spelled with 3 or more non-vowel characters in a row. For example: it should print 'angst' because that has 4 consonants in a row (ngst), but it shouldn't print 'paper' because that only has 1 consonant in a row. | |

| Oct 31, 2016 at 6:08 | comment | added | Austin | no I just want to list the words that contain 3 or more consonants in a row | |
