but each consonant should appear only once in a word

Currently, the task has a requirement that consonants not be repeated.

This has been implemented in two different ways. (Not repeated during the counting process vs. not repeated at all.) --Rdm (talk) 12:48, 25 July 2022 (UTC)

No need to delete versions on Rosetta Code

I've restored a Python version which had been deleted on the grounds that it made a particular interpretation (in fact two complementary interpretations) of the ambiguous task description.
