FILE HANDLING
A file in itself is a bunch of bytes stored on some storage device like hard disk, thumb
drive etc.

TYPES OF FILE
a. Text File b. Binary File
TEXT FILE
1) A text file stores information in ASCII or unicode characters
2) each line of text is terminated, (delimited) with a special character known as EOL

BINARY FILES
1) A binary file is just a file that contains information in the same format in which the
information is held in memory i.e the file content that is returned to you is raw.
2) There is no delimiter for a line
3) No translation occurs in binary file
4) Binary files are faster and easier for a program to read and write than are text files.
5) Binary files are the best way to store program information.

Steps to process a FILE

1) Determine the type of file usage :
in this section we determine whether file need to be open or not
Sno Method Syntax Description
1 Read() <filehandle>.read( [n] ) Reads at most n bytes ;If no n is specified,
reads the entire file.
Returns the read bytes in the form of a
string . In [11]:file
1=ope n(“E:\\m ydata\\in fo.txt”)
In [12]:readInfo=file1.read(15)
In [13]:print(readInfo)#prints firt 15
#characters of file
In [14]:type(readInfo)
Out[14]:str
2 Readline( ) <filehandle>.readline([n] Reads a line of input ;if in is specified reads at
) most n bytes.
Returns the read bytes in the form string
ending with in(line)character or returns a
blank string if no more bytes are left for
reading in the file.
In [20]:file1 =
open(“E:\\mydata\\info.txt”) In [20]:
readInfo =file1.readline()
In [22]:print (readInfo)
 Page : 26
3 readlines() <filehandle>.readlines() Read all lines and returns them in a list
In [23]:file1 =open(“E:\\mydata\\info
text”) In [24]:readInfo =file1.readlines()
In [25]:print
(readInfo) In
[26]:type (readInfo)
Out[26]:list
2) open the file and assign its references to a file object or file handle
3) Process as required
4) close the file

OPENING AND CLOSING FILES

1) open() function is used to open a file
Syntax: file variable/file handle=open(file_name,acce ss
mode) Example F= open('abc.txt,'w')
this statement opens abc.txt in write mode
Note : if file mode is not mentioned in open function then default file mode i.e 'r' is used,

2) close() : the close( ) method of a file object flushes any unwritten information and
3) close the file object after which no more writing can be done
SYNTAX: fileobject.close()
Example F.close( )
FILES MODE
it defines how the file will be accessed
Text Binary File Description Notes
File Mode
Mode
‘r’ ‘rb’ Read only File must exist already ,otherwise python raises I/O error
‘w’ ‘wb’ Write only *If the file does not exist ,file is created.
*If the file exists, python will truncate existing data and
overwrite in tne file. So this mode must be used with
caution.
‘a’ ‘ab’ append *File is in write only mode.
*if the file exists, the data in the file is retained and new
data being written will be appended to the end.
*if the file does not exist ,python will create a new file.
‘r+’ ‘r+b’ or ‘rb+’ Read and *File must exist otherwise error is raised.
write *Both reading and writing operations can take place.
‘w+’ ‘w+b’ or ‘wb+’ Write and *File is created if doesn’t exist.
read *If the file exists, file is truncated(past data is lost).
*Both reading and writing operations can take place.
‘a+’ ‘a+b’ or Write and *File is created if does not exist.
‘ab+’ read *If file exists, files existing data is retained ; new data is
appended.
*Both reading and writing operations can take place.

TEXT FILE H ANDLING
Methods to re ad data from file s

Writing data into files

Sno Name Syntax Description
1 Write() <filehandle>.write(str1) Write string str1 to file
referenced by<filehandle>
2 Writelines() <filehandle>.writelines Writes all strings in list L as lines
(L) to file referenced by <filehandle>

BINARY FILE HANDLING:

1) in binary file data is in unreadable format and to work on binary file we have to
convert the data into readable form for read as well as write operation
2) pickling refers to the process of converting the structure to a byte stream before
writing to a file.while reading the content of the file a reverse process called unpickling
is used to convert the byte stream back to the original strstrstructure
3) we have to import pickle module for binary file handling
4) two main method of pickle modules are‐ dump() and load()
5) Syntax of dump():‐ dump(object, fileobject)
6) Syntax of load():‐load(fileobject)

RELATIVE AND ABSOLUTE P AT H

1) The os module provides functions for working with files and directories ('os' stands for
operating system). os.getcwd returns the name of the current directory
()
print(cwd)#cwd is current working directory
2) A string like cwd that identifies a file is called path. A relative path starts from the current
directory whereas an absolute path starts from the topmost directory in file system.
3) Example of Absolute path:E:\project\myfolder\data.txt

ST AND ARD FILE STRE AM

We have to import module sys for standard I/O
stream the standard stream available in python are :
1) standard input stream(sys.stdin)
2) standard output stream(sys.stdout)
3) standard error stream(sys.stderr)

Q1. What is the difference between 'w' and 'a' m odes?

Q2. BINARY file is unreadable and open and close through a function only so what are the
advantages of using binary file
Q3. Write a statement to open a binary file name sample.dat in read mode and the file
sample.dat is placed in a folder ( name school) existing in c drive
Q4. Which of the following function returns a list datatype
A) d=f.read()
B) d=f.read(10)
C) d=f.readline()
D) d=f.readlines()
Q5, How many file objects would you need to manage the following situations :
(a) To process four files sequentially
(b) To process two sorted files into third file
Q6. When do you think text files should be preferred over binary files?

will contain Name and Mobile Number for some entries. He has written the following
code. As a programmer, help him to successfully execute the given task.

import # Line 1
def addCsvFile(Name,Mobile): # to write / add data into the CSV file

f=open('contacts.csv',' ') # Line 2

newFileWriter = csv.writer(f)
newFileWriter.writerow([Name,Mobile])
f.close()
#csv file reading code
def readCsvFile(): # to read data from CSV file with
open('contacts.csv','r') as newFile:

newFileReader = csv. (newFile) # Line 3 for row in

newFileReader:

print (row[0],row[1])
newFile. # Line 4

addCsvFile(“Arjun”,”8548587526”)

addCsvFile(“Arunima”,”6585425855”)
addCsvFile(“Frieda”,”8752556320”)
readCsvFile() #Line 5

Write a function AMCount() in Python, which should read each character of a text file
STORY.TXT, should count and display the occurance of alphabets A and M (including small
cases a and m too). Example:

If the file content is as follows:

Updated information
As simplified by official websites.
The EUCount() function should display the output as:
A or a:4
M or m :2
Write a function in Python that counts the number of “The” or “This” words present in a text file
“MY_TEXT_FILE.TXT”.

Note: (The comparison should be case insensitive)

Ans
def displayMeMy():
um=0
 Page : 59
f=open("story.txt","rt")
N=f.read()
M=N.split()
for x in M:
if x=="Me" or x== "My":
print(x)
num=num+1
f.close()
print("Count of Me/My in file:",num)

A=A+1
elif x[0]=="M" or x[0]=="m":
M=M+1
f.close()
print("A or a: ",A)
print("M or m: ",M)
Note : Using of any correct code giving the same result is also
accepted.
num_words = 0

Write a function VowelCount() in Python, which should read each character of a text file
MY_TEXT_FILE.TXT, should count and display the occurrence of alphabets vowels.

Example:
If the file content is as follows: Updated information

As simplified by official websites.

The VowelCount() function should display the output as:
A or a:4
E or e :4
I or I :8
O or o : 0
U or u: 1

def VowelCount():

count_a=count_e=count_i=count_o=count_u=0

for line in f:
for letter in line:
if letter.upper()=='A':
count_a+=1
elif letter.upper()=='E':
count_e+=1
elif letter.upper()=='I':
count_i+=1
elif letter.upper()=='O':
count_o+=1
elif letter.upper()=='U':
count_u+=1

print("A or a:", count_a)

 Page : 61
print("E or e:", count_e)
print("I or i:", count_i)
print("O or o :", count_o)
print("U or u:", count_u)

or any other correct logic

The output of the function should be: Count of Me/My in file: 4
