5.Assertion (A): A binary file in python is used to store collection objects like lists and
dictionaries that can be later retrieved in their original form using pickle module.

editor like notepad.
6. Which of the following mode will refer to binary data? (a)r (b) w (c) + (d) b

(b) seek(offset [, reference_point])
(c) seek(offset, file_object)
(d) seek.file_object(offset)
8. Assertion (A): CSV (Comma Separated Values) is a file format for data storage which
looks like a text file.
