Answer 1

😁print("vowels")😅
would not magically do that.

something like this:

vowels = "AaEeIiOoUu"
y = input()
z = 0
for letter in y:
if letter in vowels: #👈 this...
z += 1
print ("you have:")
print (z)
print ("vowels")

Answer 2

you only counted the letters, that's why it outputs that.
you have to set a condition to tell the program which letters are vowels and count only those. That is the main purpose of the exercise..

Answer 3

I thought That I did by only telling the program the vowels

Answer 4

I mean the variable x

Answer 9

That is another thing. Avoid using the same variable name for different things.
first you assigned x a string of vowels
x ="aAeEiIoOuU"
then you used x as an iterator for the input
for x in y
this just breaks down each letter of y and assign it to x temporarily. No comparison is done here.

Those are different.
Plus, you did not actually compare each letter of the input to the vowels string.
I renamed x to vowels. Hope it is clearer.

Answer 10

you can change the print function to
print("you have ", z, " vowels")
