Chapter 5, Problem 26PC

Using Files—Total and Average Rainfall

Write a program that reads in from a file a starting month name, an ending month name, and then the monthly rainfall for each month during that period. As it does this, it should sum the rainfall amounts and then report the total rainfall and average rainfall for the period. For example, the output might look like this:

During the months of March–June, the total rainfall was 7.32 inches and the average monthly rainfall was 1.83 inches.

Data for the program can be found in the Rainfall. txt file located in the Chapter 5 programs folder on the book’s companion website.

Hint: After reading in the month names, you will need to read in rain amounts until the EOF is reached and count how many pieces of rain data you read in.

Write a program using the random number generator to create a list of random rainfall measurements and save these numbers in a text file.   Your program should handle any number of entries as long as you must have more than 12 readings to cover more than 1 year of measurements.   You may assume that we do not have more than 5 inches of rain in a month.
For this assignment, you will write a Python program that uses a file named scores.txt to store sets of bowling scores for different dates. scores.txt should store the data so that each line has a month, day, and the scores the user earned on that date. As an example, scores.txt might look something like this: January 15 200 300 126 200 250April 20 125 100 May 17 300 100 215 The very first time your program starts, scores.txt should not exist (i.e. create it with Python code the first time the program runs). In your main function, continuously give the user the following five options:  Quit the program. View all Scores.  If the user selects this option, call a function named view_scores. This function should print the scores in a nicely formatted manner. For example: "On January 15, you scored 200, 300, and 126", etc.. Add a Score. If the user selects this option, call a function named add_score. This function should ask the user for a month, day, and as many scores as they want to…
