Question

Please answer this question using python programming only and provide a screen short for the code.

Reading: P4E 7; Tut 7.2, 7.2.1

Upload an original Python script that satisfies the following criteria:

It has at least two functionsFunction 1:

This function has one parameter, a string containing the path to an existing text file that will be read by your function

Using a with statement, the function opens the file indicated by the parameter for reading

The function counts the number of lines in the file that contain the letter "j" (a for loop is your friend)

The function returns the final count of lines containing "j"

Function 2:This function has two parameters:

a string containing the path where a text file will be written by your function (if a file already exists at that location, it will be overwritten)

an integer containing a count that will be written to the file

Using a with statement, the function opens the file indicated by the first parameter for writing

The function writes the count in the second parameter to the file

The function returns None implicitly (in other words, it has no return statement)

It has an if __name__ == '__main__': statement that does the following:

Calls the first function, passing a filename as an argument, and captures the return value in a variable

Calls the second function, passing another filename and the result of the first function as arguments

The script adheres to the style guide; this includes, among other things, having a script docstring and function docstrings.

Answer 1

def function1(fileName):

    with open(fileName) as f:
        count = 0
        for line in f:
            if 'j' in line:
                count += 1
        print('J appears', count, 'times')


def function2(fileName, count):

    with open(fileName, 'w') as f:
        f.write('Count: ' + str(count))


if __name__ == '__main__':
    c = function1('input.txt')
    function2('output.txt', c)
