33. Write differences in the file opening mode “a” and “w”? 5

Abhisar is making a software on “Countries & their Capitals” in which various

records are to be stored/retrieved in CAPITAL.CSV data file. Write a python program
that defines and calls the following user defined functions

def AddNewRec(Country,Capital): A function to read and add a new record in CSV

file CAPITAL.CSV. Each record consists of the name of the country and its
capital as the fields.

“w” is used to write in file from the beginning. If file already exists then it will
overwrite the previous content.
“a” (append – add at the end) is also used to write in file. If file already exists it will
write after the previous content i.e., it will not overwrite the previous content and
add new content after the existing content.

def AddNewRec(Country,Capital): # Fn. to add a new record in CSV file
f=open(“CAPITAL.CSV”, a)
fwriter=csv.writer(f)
fwriter.writerow([Country,Capital])
f.close()

def ShowRec():

NewReader=csv.reader
c=0
for rec in NewReader:
print(rec[0],rec[1])
c=c+1

35. Preethi Shah is learning to work with binary files in Python using a process
known pickling/ unpickling. Her teacher has given her the following
incomplete code, which is creating a binary file namely Mydata.dat and then
opens, reads and displays the content of this created file,

_______________ #fill_line1
sqlist = list( )
for k in range(10):
sqlist.append(k*k)
fout = ______________ #fill_line2A
_________________ #fill_line3
fout.close( )
fin = _______________ #fill_line2B
___________________ #fill_line4
fin.close( )
print (“Data from file :”, mylist)

Help her complete the above code as per the instructions given below:
a. Complete fill_line1 so that required python library becomes available to
the program
b. Complete fill_line2A so that the above-mentioned binary file is opened
for writing in the file object fout
c. Similarly complete fill_line2B, which will open the same binary file for
sending in the file object fin.
d. Complete fill_line3 so that the list created in the code, namely sqlist, is
written in the open file.
e. Complete fill_line4 so that the contents of the open file in the file handle
fin are read in a list namely mylist.
Ans:
import pickle
Sqlist = list()
for k in range (10):
sqlist.append(k*k)
fout = open(“mydata.dat”,’wb’)
pickle.dump(sqlist,fout)
fout.close( )
fin=open(“mydata.dat”,’rb’)
mylist = pickle.load(fin)
fin.close( )
print(“Data from file:”, mylist)
(fill_line1 -1Mark
fill_line2A and fill_line2B – ½ mark each
fill_line3 – 1 mark
fill_line4 – 1 mark)
