\item[6.1.1] You are given date strings of the form ``29, Jul 2009'', or ``4 January 2008''. In other words a number a string and another number, with a comma sometimes separating the items.Write a function that takes such a string and returns a tuple (yyyy, mm, dd) where all three elements are ints.
\item[6.1.2] Count word frequencies in a file.
\item[6.1.3] Find the most used Python keywords in your Python code (import keyword).
