Chapter 4. PC #14. Line Numbers (page 265)
Write a program that asks the user for the name of a file. The program should display the contents of the file with each line preceded with a line number followed by a colon. The line numbering should start at 1.
Test Case 1
Please enter the file name or type QUIT to exit:\nquitENTER
Test Case 2
Please enter the file name or type QUIT to exit:\nbadfilename.txtENTERFile: badfilename.txt does not exist.\nPlease enter the file name again or type QUIT to exit:\nquitENTER
Test Case 3
Please enter the file name or type QUIT to exit: \ninput1.txt ENTER1: a\n2: b\n3: c\n4: d\n
A student launches the Python interpreter from his home directory. His home directory contains another directory called 'mydir', and 'mydir' contains two files called 'foo' and 'bar'. The home directory does not contain any files, only other directories. What will happen when he writes the following code at the Python prompt:
>>> import os
>>> filenames = os.listdir('mydir')
>>> f= open(filenames[0])
=====================================================================================
A variable f representing a file object will be created, and the first file in the directory 'mydir' will be opened for writing in text mode.
An error will be produced stating that the file to be opened does not exist.
An error will be produced stating that filename is not subscriptable.
A variable f representing a file object will be created, and the first file in the directory 'mydir' will be opened.
in this function is f a variable? in what other way can we write this function? why does mode not work in this function?
def process_lines(filename, mode): # Actually this is function is used to read the file line by line with open(filename, 'r') as f: # file opened msg = f.read() # read the message return msg # return message def write_lines(lines): # function to write some into message with open('results.txt', 'w') as f: # open the text file f.writelines(lines) # write some line print("Output written to results.txt") # print the output what does os.path do?def check_file_exists(filename): # check weather this file is exist or not to avoid exception from os.path import exists # import library of exist file_exists = exists(filename) # if file exist return file_exists

Create a list of type character, i.e. the data type that is stored in the list is text.2. Read the contents of the file to the lists with ReadFile(). Display the number of lines that are read from the text file.3. Decode each card number with the Decode() function by passing the list to the function.4.
