GirlNames.txt This file contains a list of the 200 most popular names given to girls born in the United States from the year 2000 through 2009.
BoyNames.txt This file contains a list of the 200 most popular names given to boys born in the United States from the year 2000 through 2009.
Write a program that reads the contents of the two files into two separate lists. The user should be able to enter a boy’s name, a girl’s name, or both, and the application will display messages indicating whether the names were among the most popular.
**programming language is python**
** must use a def main(): function**
*please include some comments*
i aslo have the .txt files but no wya to upload them
Searching - a user should be able to search by ID or by item name
create only one menu item for searching
a user should be able to enter the name of the item using any case, (for example, sTRolleR)
you may wish to store items in all lower/upper case to expedite the search
write one search function that can search by ID and name and goes through the array of structs/objects only once
show the entire record if found or an appropriate message if not
Sorting - sort by any field
write one function to sort by any field using a parallel array of pointers
use Bubble Sort is not the most effective but the easiest to modify.
do not copy and paste sort code five times into the same function.
sorting using pointers is faster because you have to swap pointers only, which are normally stored in 4 bytes each; it also allows you to preserve the original order of the items
If you choose to have a submenu, a submenu must have an option to go back to the previous menu or main menu
if a user got…

In this exercise you will create a program that will be used in a digital library to format and sort journal entries based on the authors last name. Each entry has room to store only the last name of the author. Begin by removing the first name "Isaac" from the string variable journal_entry_1 by using the string function erase. Do not forget to also remove the whitespace so that the string variable journal_entry_1 will then contain the string "Newton" with no whitespaces. The journal entries should be sorted alphabetically based on the authors last name. For example, the last name "Brown" should come before the last name "Davis" Create an if statement so that if the last name contained within journal_entry_2 is alphabetically less than the last name contained within journal_entry_1, then the string values are swapped using the string function swap. You may use either of the comparison operators < > in the if statement but remember that following ASCII, "A" is…

- Answer correctly and fast else downvote gurranteed Create a program that makes a grocery list. You will need an array of strings. You don’t know how many items will be on your list. Simple problem: User tells you how many items, then tells you the items. You display the items for the user. More complex problem: User tells you how many items, then tells you the items. You display the items for the user. At the end of the program, write the grocery list to a text file called grocery.txt. Even more complex problem: If grocery.txt exists, read it into an array and display to the user. User then tells you how many more items, and then tells you the items. You display all the items for the user. At the end of the program, write the grocery list to a text file called grocery.txt.
