Radha Shah is a programmer, who has recently been given a task to write a python code to perform
the following CSV file operations with the help of two user defined functions/modules:

(a) . CSVOpen() : to create a CSV file called “ books.csv” in append mode containing
information of books – Title, Author and Price.
(b). CSVRead() : to display the records from the CSV file called “ books.csv” .where the field
title starts with 'R'.
She has succeeded in writing partial code and has missed out certain statements, so she has left
certain queries in comment lines.
import csv
def CSVOpen( ):
with open('books.csv','______',newline='') as csvf: #Statement-1
cw=______ #Statement-2
______ #Statement-3
cw.writerow(['Rapunzel','Jack',300])
cw.writerow(['Barbie','Doll',900])
cw.writerow(['Johnny','Jane',280])
def CSVRead( ):
try: with open('books.csv','r') as csvf:
cr=______ #Statement-4
for r in cr:
 if ______: #Statement-5
print(r)
except:
print('File Not Found')
CSVOpen( )
CSVRead( )

You as an expert of Python have to provide the missing statements and other related queries based
on the following code of Radha.
(a) Write the appropriate mode in which the file is to be opened in append mode (Statement 1)
(b) Which statement will be used to create a csv writer object in Statement 2.
(c) Write the correct option for Statement 3 to write the names of the column headings in the CSV
file, books.csv
(d) Write statement to be used to read a csv file in Statement 4.

What are the advantages of binary file over text file? Write a Python program in Python to
search the details of the employees (name, designation and salary) whose salary is greater than
5000. The records are stored in the file emp.dat. consider each record in the file emp.dat as a
list containing name, designation and salary.

Ans.
In binary file, there is no terminator for a line and the data is stored after converting it into
machine understandable binary language. A binary file stores the data in the same way as
stored in the memory. Like text file we can’t read a binary file using a text editor.

34. Tushar is a Python programmer. He has written a code and created a binary (4)
file record.dat with employeeid, ename and salary. The file contains 10
records.

He now has to delete a record based on the employee id entered by the user.
For this purpose, he creates a temporary file, named temp.dat, to store all
the records other than the record to be deleted. If the employee id is not
found, an appropriate message should to be displayed.

As a Python expert, help him to complete the following code (by completing
statements 1, 2, 3, and 4) based on the requirement given above:

(i) Complete Statement#1 to import the required module.

(ii) Write the correct statement required to open a temporary file
named temp.dat. (#Statement 2)
(iii) Which statement should Aman fill in Statement 3 to read the data
from the binary file, record.dat
(iv) What should be written in Statement 4 to write the required records
in the file temp.dat?

Import pickle #Statement 1

def update_data():
rec={}
fin=open("record.dat","rb")
fout=open("temp.dat","wb") #Statement 2
found=False
eid=int(input("Enter employee id: "))
while True:
try:
rec= pickle.load(fin) #Statement 3
if rec["Employee id"]==eid:
found=True
else:
pickle.dump(rec,fout) #Statement 4
except:
break
if found==True:
print("Record deleted.")
else:
print("Employee with such id is not found")
fin.close()
fout.close()

secured by students in Sem1, Sem2, Sem3 and their division. After creation of
the table, he has entered data of 7 students in the table.
ROLL_NO SNAME SEM1 SEM2 SEM3 DIVISION
101 KARAN 366 410 402 I
102 NAMAN 300 350 325 I
103 ISHA 400 410 415 I
104 RENU 350 357 415 I
105 ARPIT 100 75 178 IV
106 SABINA 100 205 217 II
107 NEELAM 470 450 471 I

Based on the data given above answer the following questions:

(i) Can Name be a candidate key of the table? Justify your answer.
Yes. Based on the given data we observe that each entry in SNAME
column is unique. Therefore, SNAME can be the a Candidate key.

(ii) If a column is added and 3 rows are deleted from the table result, what
will be the new degree and cardinality of the above table?
Degree: 7, Cardinality: 4

(iii) Write the statements to:

a) Insert the following record into the table
Roll_No- 108, Name- Aadit, Sem1- 470, Sem2-444, Sem3-475, Div– I.
insert into RESULT values(108,'Aadit',470,444,475,'I' );
b) Increase the SEM2 marks of the students by 3% whose Name ends with
'A'.
update result set sem2=sem2*1.03 where sname like '%A';
OR (Option for part iii only)
(iii) Write the statements to:
a) Delete the record of students securing IV division.
delete from result where division='IV';
b) Add a column GRADE, of type char of length 3 characters to the
RESULT table.
