Exercise

Entity extraction with regex

Now you'll use another simple method, this time for finding a person's name in a sentence, such as "hello, my name is David Copperfield".

You'll look for the keywords "name" or "call(ed)", and find capitalized words using regex and assume those are names. Your job in this exercise is to define a find_name() function to do this.
