    Use a set to search for vowels, O(1) instead of O(n), n = |vowels| Also single loop instead of two loops i.e. list comprehensions.

    def minion_game(string):
    # your code goes here
    vowels = set()
    [vowels.add(x) for x in 'AEIOU']
    slen = len(string)
    volscore = 0
    conscore = 0
    for i in range(slen):
        n = slen - i
        if s[i] in vowels:
            volscore += n
        else:
            conscore += n
    if conscore > volscore:
        print(f"Stuart {conscore}")
    elif conscore < volscore:
        print(f"Kevin {volscore}")
    else:
        print("Draw")
            

if __name__ == '__main__':
    s = input()
    minion_game(s
