Python - Text Processing Write a function copy(x, y) that can copy a file x into another file y. Use demo.txt as the input to verify your function. _Hint_: use functions open( ), read( ), write( ), and close( ).

(Data processing) a. Store the following data in a file, or use the numbers.dat file provided on this book’s Web site. 5 96 87 78 93 21 4 92 82 85 87 6 72 69 85 75 81 73 b. Write a C++ program to calculate and display the average of each group of numbers in the file created in Exercise 2a. The data is arranged in the file so that each group of numbers is preceded by the number of data items in the group. Therefore, the first number in the file, 5, indicates that the next five numbers should be grouped together. The number 4 indicates that the following four numbers are a group, and the 6 indicates that the last six numbers are a group. (Hint: Use a nested loop. The outer loop should terminate when the end of file has been encountered.)

(Inventory) Create an ASCII file with the following data, or use the shipped.dat file available on this book’s Web site. The headings aren’t part of the file but indicate what the data represents Using this data file, write a C++ program that reads the file and produces a report listing the shipped date, part number, first name, last name, and company name.

(File creation) Write a C++ program that creates an array containing the integer numbers 60, 40, 80, 90, 120, 150, 130, 160, 170, and 200. Your program should then write the data in the array to a text file. (Alternatively, you can create the file with a text editor.)

Write a program that reads in a line consisting of a students name, Social Security number, user ID, and password. The program outputs the string in which all the digits of the Social Security number and all the characters in the password are replaced by x. (The Social Security number is in the form 000-00-0000, and the user ID and the password do not contain any spaces.) Your program should not use the operator [] to access a string element. Use the appropriate functions described in Table 7-1.

Write a program to implement the algorithm that you designed in Exercise 22 of Chapter 1. (Assume that the account balance is stored in the file Ch4_Ex15_Data.txt.) Your program should output account balance before and after withdrawal and service charges. Also save the account balance after withdrawal in the file Ch4_Ex15_Output.txt.

(Numerical) a. The following is an extremely useful programming algorithm for rounding a real number to n decimal places: Step 1: Multiply the number by 10n Step 2: Add 0.5 Step 3: Delete the fractional part of the result Step 4: Divide by 10n For example, using this algorithm to round the number 78.374625 to three decimal places yields: Step1:78.374625103=78374.625 Step2:78374.625+0.5=78375.125 Step3:Retainingtheintegerpart=78375Step4:78375dividedby103=78.375 Using this algorithm, write a C++ function that accepts a user-entered value and returns the result rounded to two decimal places. b. Enter, compile, and run the program written for Exercise 11a.

(Numerical) Write a program that tests the effectiveness of the rand() library function. Start by initializing 10 counters to 0, and then generate a large number of pseudorandom integers between 0 and 9. Each time a 0 occurs, increment the variable you have designated as the zero counter; when a 1 occurs, increment the counter variable that’s keeping count of the 1s that occur; and so on. Finally, display the number of 0s, 1s, 2s, and so on that occurred and the percentage of the time they occurred.

(Data processing) a. Write a C++ program that opens a file and displays its contents with line numbers. That is, the program should print the number 1 before displaying the first line, print the number 2 before displaying the second line, and so on for each line in the file. b. Modify the program written in Exercise 6a to list the file’s contents on the printer assigned to your computer.

(Numerical) Using the srand() and rand() C++ library functions, fill an array of 1000 floating-point numbers with random numbers that have been scaled to the range 1 to 100. Then determine and display the number of random numbers having values between 1 and 50 and the number having values greater than 50. What do you expect the output counts to be?
