29 Write a function COUNT() in Python to read from a text file 'Gratitude.txt' anddisplay
the count of the letter 'e' in each line
Example: If the file content is as follows: Gratitude is a
humble heart's radiant glow, A timeless gift that
nurtures and bestows.

moments big and small, it's truly known

It's the appreciation for the love we're shown, In
moments big and small, it's truly known
Then the output should be :
It's the appreciation for the love we're shown, In moments
big and small, it's truly known.

30 A) A List, "NList" contains following record as list elements:

NList = [[ City, Country, DistanceFromDelhi ], …]
Each of these records are nested together to form a nested list. Write the following
user defined functions in Python to perform the specified operations on the stacknamed
travel.
Push_element(NList): It takes the nested list as an argument and pushes a list object
containing name of the city and country, which are not in India and distance is less than
3500km from Delhi.
Pop_element(): It pops the objects from the stack and displays them. Also, thefunction
should display "StackEmpty" when there are no elements in the stack.
For example: If the nested list contains the following data:
NList = [ ["NewYork", "U.S.A.", 11734],
["Naypyidaw", "Myanmar", 3219],
["Dubai", "UAE", 2194],
["London", "England", 6693],
["Gangtok", "India", 1580],
["Columbo", "SriLanka", 3405] ]

The stack should contain:

['Naypyidaw', 'Myanmar'],
['Dubai', 'UAE'],
['Columbo', 'SriLanka']

5
 The output should be : ['Columbo',
'SriLanka']
['Dubai', 'UAE']
['Naypyidaw', 'Myanmar']
Stack Empty
OR
B) Write the definition of a user-defined function
`push_even(N)` which accepts a list of integers in a parameter `N` and pushes all those
integers which are even from the list `N` into a Stack named `EvenNumbers`. Write function
pop_even() to pop the topmost number from the stack and returns it. If the stack is already
empty, the function should display "Empty". Write function Disp_even() to display all
element of the stack without deleting them. If the stack is empty, the function should display
'None'.
for example: If the integers input into the list `VALUES` are: [10, 5, 8, 3, 12] Then the stack
`EvenNumbers` should store: [10, 8, 12]

31 Predict the output of the Python code given below:

Text1=”IND-23”
Text2= “ “
I=0
while I<len(Text1):
if Text1[I]>=’0’ and Text[I]<=’9’: val =
int(text1[I])
val=val+1
Text2=Text2+str(val)
elif Text1[I]>=’A’ and Text[I]<=’Z’:
Text2=Text2+ (Text1[I+1])
else:
Text2=Text2+ “ *”
I+=1
print(Text2)
OR

Predict the output of the following code:

d = {"apple": 15, "banana": 7, "cherry": 9} str1 = " "
for key in d:
str1 = str1 + str(d[key]) + "@" + “\n” str2 =
str1[:-1]
print(str2)

 32 A) Write a function search_replace() in Python which accepts a list L of numbersand a
number to be searched. If the number exists, it is replaced by 0 and if the number
does not exist, an appropriate message is displayed.
Example : L = [10,20,30,10,40]
Number to be searched = 10
List after replacement : L = [0,20,30,0,40]
OR
B) Write a function EOReplace() in Python, which accepts a list L of numbers.
Thereafter, it halves all even numbers and doubles all odd numbers
Example : If Sample Input data of the list is :
L = [10,11,12,13,14,15]
Output will be : L = [5,22,6,26,7,30]
33 Vedansh is a Python programmer working in a school. For the Annual Sports Event, he has
created a csv file named "Result.csv", to store the results of studentsin different sport
events. The structure of Result.csv is :
[St_Id, St_Name, Game_Name, Result]
Where,
St_Id is Student ID (Integer)
St_Name is Student Name (String)
Game_Name is Name of Game in which student is participating (string)
Result is result of the game whose value can be either 'Won', 'Lost' or 'Tie'
For efficiently maintaining data of the event, Vedansh wants to write the followinguser
defined functions:
Accept(): to accept a record from the user and add it to the file Result.csv. The column
headings should also be beaded on top of the csv file.
wonCount(): to count the number of students who have won any event. As aPython
expert, help him complete the task.
