Chapter 10, Problem 3P
The following is an old word puzzle: “Name a common word, besides tremendous, stupendous, and horrendous, that ends in dous.” If you think about this for a while it will probably come to you. However, we can also solve this puzzle by reading a text file of English words and outputting the word if it contains “dous” at the end. The text file “words.txt” contains 87314 English words, including the word that completes the puzzle. This file is available online with the source code for the book. Write a

In Python IDLE
Write a program that reads the file’s contents and determines the following:
The number of uppercase letters in the file
The number of lowercase letters in the file
The number of digits in the file
The number of whitespace characters in the file
Then the program should do a mass replacement of all spaces with a ‘-‘, and then replace any uppercase letters with lowercase letters. After the replacement of the spaces, the count of letters, digits, and spaces should be rerun, the number of replacements indicated, and a second report of letters, digits and spaces should be printed.
Save the results of the changes in a file named “testoutput.txt”. This file must be submitted as part of the submission for your lab.
Output should look like this:
Uppercase letters: 20
Lowercase letters: 310
Digits: 4
Spaces: 82
>>>
Hint: This program does not need to use any lists – the entire file can be read into one string.
Problem 2. Date Printer - Write a program…
Write a program that first reads in the name of an input file and then reads the file using the csv.reader() method. The file contains a list of words separated by commas. Your program should output the words and their frequencies (the number of times each word appears in the file) without any duplicates.
Ex: If the input is:
input1.csv
and the contents of input1.csv are:
hello,cat,man,hey,dog,boy,Hello,man,cat,woman,dog,Cat,hey,boy
the output is:
hello 1
cat 2
man 2
hey 2
dog 2
boy 2
Hello 1
woman 1
Cat 1
Note: There is a newline at the end of the output, and input1.csv is available to download.

- from Big Java 6th. Edition. Ch.11 P11.12: the capacitor is represented by the equation v(t) = B(1 - e-t/(RC)) Suppose the parameters of the electric circuit are B = 12 volts, R = 500 Ω, and C = 0.25 μF. Consequently v(t) = 12(1 – e-0.008t) where t has units of μs. Read a file params.txt containing the values for B, R, C, and the starting and ending values for t. Write a file rc.txt of values for the time t and the corresponding capacitor voltage v(t), where t goes from the given starting value to the given ending value in 100 steps. In our example, if t goes from 0 to 1000 μs, the twelfth entry in the output file would be: 110.00 7.02261 Make sure that your program catches the FileNotFoundException that can occur if your input file params.txt cannot be found.

- Write a program that first reads in the name of an input file, followed by two strings representing the lower and upper bounds of a search range. The file should be read using the file.readlines() method. The input file contains a list of alphabetical, ten-letter strings, each on a separate line. Your program should output all strings from the list that are within that range (inclusive of the bounds).
