33. What is the purpose of using flush() in file handling operations? 5

Sharadhi Patel of class 12 is writing a program to create a CSV file “emp.csv” which will
contain employee code, name and salary of employees. Write a Program in Python that
defines and calls the following user defined functions:
(i) InsRec() – To accept and add data of an employee to a CSV file ‘emp.csv’. Each
record consists of a list with field elements as eid, ename and sal
(ii) search()- To display details of all the employees whose salary is greater than
10000
As a programmer, help him to successfully execute the given task.

Ans : flush() allows the user to send content in file before closing the file. It means when
flush() is used it will clear the buffer and transfer content to file.

import CSV
def InsRec(eid,ename,sal): #to write/add data into the CSV file
fo=open('emp.csv','a')
writer=csv.writer(fo)
writer.writerow([eid,ename,sal])
fo.close()

def search():
fin=open("emp.csv","r",newline='\n')
data=csv.reader(fin)
found=False
print("The Details are")
for i in data:
if ((i[2])>10000):
found=True

35. Paras Nath Seth is a programmer, who has recently been given a task to write a python
code to perform the following binary file operations with the help of two user defined
functions/modules: 4
a. AddStudents() to create a binary file called STUDENT.DATcontaining student
information – roll number, name and marks (outof 100) of each student.
b. GetStudents() to display the name and percentage of those students who have a
percentage greater than 75. In case there is no student having percentage > 75 the
function displays an appropriate message. The function should also display the
average percent.

He has succeeded in writing partial code and has missed out certain statements, so
he has left certain queries in comment lines. You as an expert of Python have to
 provide the missing statements and other related queries based on the following
code of ParasNath.

As a Python expert, help him to complete the following code based on requirement
given above:

import pickle
def AddStudents():
____________# statement1 : to open the binary file towrite data
while True:
Rno = int(input("Rno :"))
Name = input("Name : ")
Percent = float(input("Percent :"))
L = [Rno, Name, Percent]
#statement2 : to write the list L into the file
Choice = input("enter more (y/n): ")
if Choice in "nN":
break
F.close()
def GetStudents():
Total=0
Countrec=0
Countabove75=0
with open("STUDENT.DAT","rb") as F:
while True:
try:
__________#statement3: to read from the file
Countrec+=1
Total+=R[2]
if R[2] > 75:
print(R[1], " has percent = ",R[2])
Countabove75+=1
except:
break
if Countabove75==0:
print("There is no student who haspercentage more than 75")
average=Total/Countrec
print("average percent of class = ",average)
AddStudents()
GetStudents()

1. What command should be used to open the file “STUDENT.DAT”for writing

only in binary format in statement1
Ans: F= open("STUDENT.DAT",'wb')

2. What command should be used to write the list L into the binary file,
STUDENT.DAT in statement2
Ans : pickle.dump(L,F) //cannot write small f
3. What command should be used to read each record from the binaryfile
STUDENT.DATin statement3
Ans R = pickle.load(F)

4. Which of the following statement(s) are correct regarding the file access
modes?
a. ‘r+’ opens a file for both reading and writing. File object points to itsbeginning.
b. ‘w+’ opens a file for both writing and reading. Adds at the end of theexisting
file if it exists and creates a new one if it does not exist.
c. ‘wb’ opens a file for reading and writing in binary format. Overwritesthe file if it
exists and creates a new one if it does not exist.
d. ‘a’ opens a file for appending. The file pointer is at the start of the fileif the file
exists.
Ans : a
