Map function and Dictionary in Python to sum ASCII values

We are given a sentence in the English language(which can also contain digits), and we need to compute and print the sum of ASCII values of the characters of each word in that sentence.

Examples:

Input :  GeeksforGeeks, a computer science portal
         for geeks
Output : Sentence representation as sum of ASCII 
         each character in a word:
         1361 97 879 730 658 327 527 
         Total sum -> 4579
Here, [GeeksforGeeks, ] -> 1361, [a] -> 97, [computer] 
-> 879, [science] -> 730 [portal] -> 658, [for] 
-> 327, [geeks] -> 527 

Input : I am a geek
Output : Sum of ASCII values:
         73 206 97 412 
         Total sum -> 788

This problem has an existing solution please refer to Sums of ASCII values of each word in a sentence link. We will solve this problem quickly in python using map() function and Dictionary data structures. Approach is simple.

• First split all words in sentence separated by space.
• Create a empty dictionary which will contain word as key and sum of ASCII values of it’s characters as value.
• Now traverse list of splitted words and for each word map ord(chr) function on each character of current word and them calculate sum of ascii values of each character of current word.
• While traversing each word map sum of ascii values on it’s corresponding word in resultant dictionary created above.
• Traverse splitted list of words and print their corresponding ascii value by looking up into resultant dictionary.

Output:

Sum of ASCII values:
1361 97 879 730 658 327 527 
Total sum -> 4579
