Define a function named word_count that counts the number of times words occur in a given string. The function must accept a string as a parameter and return a dictionary in which the key is every unique word and its value is the number of times that word occurs in the string. For example, passing in the string "Rock ties with rock" should return {'rock': 2, 'ties': 1, 'with': 1 }. Categorization should not be case-sensitive. A string with no words should return an empty dictionary.

Assume that two parallel arrays have been declared and initialized: healthoption an array of type char that contains letter codes for different healthcare options and annual cost an array of type int. the i-th element of annual cost indicates the annual cost of the i-th element of healthoption. in addition, there is an char variable, best2.write the code necessary to assign to best2 the health option with the lower annual cost, considering only the first two healthcare options. thus, if the values of healthoption are 'b', 'q', 'w', 'z' and the values of annualcost are 8430, 9400, 7050, 6400 your code would assign 'b' to best2 because 8430 is less than 9400 and is associated with 'b' in the parallel array. (we ignore 'w' and 'z' because we are considering only the first two options.)
