you are overthinking. As per the question statement count_vowels and count_consonants already exists in the same file (what does this tell you?). You need to write function that calls both count_vowels and count_consonants. The boilerplate for the function is provided. So you need to write one line that will return total number of letter in a word by calling the 2 functions already availablle
