Expert Solution & Answer
Chapter 12, Problem 13RQE
Explanation of Solution
The below member functions are used to move the read or write file pointer at any byte in the specified file.
- seekp()
- seekg().
Difference between “seekp” and “seekg” member functions:
seekp | seekg |
The seekp stands for “seek put”. The seekp() function is used to move the file-access pointer anywhere in the file before invoking the put functions. |
The seekg stands for “seek get”. The seekg() function is used to move the file-access pointer anywhere in the file before invoking the get functions... |

1. in C: write program with struct student, that has name and age. Declare a pointer to struct student *ptr, but don't assign a value to it. Then, print ptr->age.
2. What GDB commands would you use to identify the error that occurs?
Which statement is TRUE about a pointer?
The datatype of a pointer can only be initialised to 0.0.
The datatype of a pointer is determined by the datatype of the object the pointer is pointing to.
A pointer can be referred to without initialisation or assignment.
When a = &b; this means b is a pointer to a.

- Define the function lake_to_tli3_dict(readings) that takes a list of (lake_name, chla, tn, tp) tuples and returns a dict mapping lake names to trophic level index values. That is, the keys are lake names and the values will be TLI3 values. Notes: You will need to have import math as your first line of code. You must include and use/call the trophic_level_index function that you wrote in Question 1. trophic_level_index must still work as specified in Question 1. Lakes should be added to the dictionary in the same order as they appear in the readings list. If a lake appears in the readings list more than once, then the TLI for the last occurrence in the readings list should be the one that appears in the result. (This should happen naturally, since the lake name can only occur in the dictionary once.) For example: Test Result names_cnp_1 = [('Lake Brunner', 0.8, 218.0, 6.0), ('Lake Carrot', 5.1, 505.0, 18.5) ] tli3_dict = lake_to_tli3_dict(names_cnp_1 ) print(tli3_dict)…arrow_forwardWhat is the difference between 'delete' and 'deletel' in C++?

You need to create a class called Student that contains 2 data members: name and grade and then create a linked list of objects of this class. The application should allow the user to add a student, remove a student, update the grade for a student, and search for a student, and display all students' names and grades. Ex. Name Grade Joey A Joe C Mike ? The class should have a constructor with two parameters name and grade and a user must provide the student's name and grade in order to create an object of that class. Add validation code for the grade to make sure the grade is only A-F or '?' (grade is unknown or course is still in progress). Put all validation code in one function. Avoid redundancy.
