Hi,

I am interested in DS, but wanted some real application problems so
that i can improve my concepts regarding this subject

here's one I've been puzzling with lately.

Consider a body of text - structured text in particular. I'm using
Shakespeare's thirty-six plays. Easily avail online.

Numerous speakers have lines in the plays. How many speeches by each?
How many lines spoken by each?

Now consider the words. What are "the" most common words? What words
are unique?

Practical, you asked? Well maybe not. But it's fun
