Write a function getQuestions that accepts a single parameter: filename, which is the name of a txt file. Your function should assume that the text file is formatted in the following way, as a series of questions and answers, with a question on one line, and the answer to the question on the following line, as below ---Sample File--- Why is the sky blue? Because air is blue. How long does it take light to reach Earth from the Sun? About eight minutes. What is the dumbest question you've ever been asked? That one. ---End Sample File--- Your function should create and return a dictionary where the keys are the questions and the values are respective answers (so the above sample file would result in a dictionary with three key-value pairs, one per question).

(5) Write a function called copy_even_lines() that takes two strings (filenames) as input parameters and copies every other line from the first file into the second. That is, counting from 0, it copies the 0th line, the 2nd line, the 4th line, etc. from the first file to the second file. You may assume that both files exist. (6) Write a python program that asks the user for two filenames and calls your function copy_even_lines() from (5) using those two filenames. If one or more files do not exist, your program must handle the exception by repeating the prompts until valid filenames are entered.
Write a cpp program that contains class “candidate”. A candidate has a name, number of electoral votes and number of popular votes.In your program, write a function that reads an input file containing elections results using input file stream and output to the console the name of the winner, his electoral votes and his popular votes.Your function should be prominent to faulty data; for example, if the number of votes for one of the candidates was a negative number, the function should exit and print a proper error message on the screen (You must use exceptions to do this)
Write a function called max_age(inFile, outFile, breed) for a (python program), that takes three strings as input parameters. The function reads all the data from the inFile (1st input parameter) and writes data to the outFile (2nd input parameter) as described below. Each line in the input file represents a pet record and has the following format. name, breed, age where name and breed are strings, and age is an integer value. Your function must find the oldest pet of a given breed (3rd input parameter) from the inFile and write the following information to the outFile. breed, total records of this breed name of the oldest pet, age of the oldest pet Note that outFile must only have these two lines of information. Suppose, inFile contains the following data: shadow, longhair, 3 poshi, bangal, 5 mikus, longhair, 4 tigger, calico, 9 If you call this function with breed = "longhair", then the following must be written in the outFile: longhair, 2 mikus, 4 Your…
Write a function that reads a single line of numbers from a file named "question1.txt", and returns the average of the numbers read. For example, if the file is as follows: ----- question1.txt -----1 3 5 -2 4 0 6 -2 -3------------------------- then the function must return 12/9 = 1.33333
Write a standalone function partyVolume() in Python that takes accepts one argument, a string containing the name of a file. The objective of the function is to determine the a Volume object that is the result of many people at a party turning the Volume up and down. More specifically: the first line of the file is a number that indicates the initial value of a Volume The remaining lines consist of a single character followed by a space followed by a number. The character will be one of ‘U” or ‘D’ which stand for “up” and “down” respectively. The function will create a new Volume object and then process each line of the file by calling the appropriate method of the Volume object which changes the value of the Volume. The function then returns the final Volume object. Guidelines/hints: This is a standalone function, it should NOT be inside (indented within) the class. It should be listed in the module after the Volume class and without indentation. Note that the first line of the…
Implement a function wordCount, which reads a text file, and returns thenumber of words in the file. You can assume the file only contains thealphabet characters and the space character. However there may be morethan one space character between two words, so “abc abc” and “abc abc”,for example, are both two words. int wordCount ( const char * filename ) {}
Write a program vote.cc that allows to read from a file vote.in thelast names of the candidates in an election and the number of votes received by eachcandidate. The program should then output each candidate’s name, the number of votesreceived, and the percentage of the total votes received by the candidate. Your programshould also output the winner of the election. Your program should have at least the following functions:(a) Write a function openFile that prompts a user to enter a file name and opens it.(b) Write a function closeFile that closes an open file.(c) Write a function getData that reads from the file the candidate names and theirnumber of votes received and returns them in 2 separate arrays.(d) Write a function sumVote that takes as its parameter an array of number of votesand returns the total number of votes.(e) Write a function computePercentages that takes as its parameters an array ofnumber of votes and returns an array of percentages of votes. Your function shoulduse…
Need help in creating a C(NOT C+ OR C#) function that will help split a string present in a Text file. Conditions are that the length of the characters of the words can vary from 7 to 10 maximum and it would be done to random words. For example if the string is "Pedestal -the base or support on which a statue" I want the function to return "Pedestal" and " -the base or support on which a statue" separately. Again the words can vary from 7 to 10 characters but after the word, there is a gap and then there is the definition, which I need to separate. In the function I cant use break, continue exit etc.
Write a function that reads a single line of numbers from a file named "question1.txt", and returns the average of the numbers read. For example, if the file is as follows: ----- question1.txt ----- 1 3 5 -2 4 0 6 -2 -3 ------------------------- then the function must return 12/9 = 1.33333 """ def file_average(): return # Remove this line to answer this question
In c++ creates a function checkWord that:1) uses an input file stream to read input file (file1) containing correctwords from the English dictionary into a proper STL container.2) uses an input file stream to read another input file (file2) containinguntrusted English.3) Words that we need to check its correctness against the trusted filefrom the dictionary.4) Prints the incorrect words in file2 after checking it against file1.5) If there are no incorrect words, the function should print “All wordsare correct”.
Call the file: sinDrawline.cpp For this assignment, you will be creating two functions, alongside a main function: 1) toRadians: takes in degrees as input, and returns radians. Given a specified number of degrees, the radians is equal to degrees * PI/180. Important: Be sure to declare PI to be 3.14159. This is so that mimir always comes up with the same answers no matter which server is used. 2) Drawline: takes in two parameters: a character and numRepetitions and prints the character numRepetitions times, followed by a newline. In your main function, for every 5 degrees between 0 and 360, calculate and print out the value of sin(toRadians(degree)) like so: GIVEN 45 DEGREES: sin(45) = 0.70711 To use the sin function, make sure to include cmath in your program. Be sure to set decimal precision to 5 places! Every 90 degrees (including 0 and 360), print out a line of 30 dashes ('-') using drawline after your print out the value of sin. Inside main() For values between 0 and 360, in 5…
Write a function file_copy that takes two string parameters (in_file and out_file) and copies the content of in_file into out_file. Assume that in_file exists before file_copy is called. For example, the following would be correct input and output:>>> file_copy('created_equal.txt', 'copy.txt')>>> copy_f = open('copy.txt')>>> copy_f.read()'We hold these truths to be self-evident,\nthat all men are created equal\n'*I am typing this so I can submit as a question as it will not let me without typing this!
