Question
Given a sentence of words separated by single spaces (possibly the empty string), count how many words begin with a vowel — one of 'a', 'e', 'i', 'o', 'u' — comparing case-insensitively. For example, 'An apple every day' has 3 such words ('An', 'apple', 'every').

State your approach and its time/space complexity out loud before you optimize. Handle the edge cases (empty input, duplicates, overflow), and say why you chose this over the brute force. Green tests are the floor, not the grade.
Learn the concepts
Vibe coding: describe the solution in plain language (or narrate it) and the coach grades your approach. Generating runnable code from your description is coming next.
Run or narrate your approach, then ask the coach.
