password 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(UserName,PassWord): # to write / add
data into the CSV file
f=open(' user.csv','________') # Line 2
newFileWriter = csv.writer(f)
newFileWriter.writerow([UserName,PassWord])
 f.close() print("No. of books:",CountRec(a))
#csv file reading code [3] A binary file “STUDENT.DAT” has a structure
def readCsvFile(): # to read data from CSV file (admission_number, Name, Percentage). Write a function
with open(' user.csv','r') as newFile: countrec() in Python that would read contents of the file
newFileReader = csv._________(newFile) # Line 3 “STUDENT.DAT” and display the details of those students
for row in newFileReader: whose percentage is above 75. Also, display the number
print (row[0],row[1]) of students scoring above 75%.
newFile.______________ # Line 4 import pickle
addCsvFile(“Arjun”,”123@456”) def countrec():
addCsvFile(“Arunima”,”aru@nima”) f=open("student.dat","rb")
addCsvFile(“Frieda”,”myname@FRD”) c=0
readCsvFile() #Line 5 while True:
(a) Name the module he should import in Line 1. try:
(b) In which mode, Ranjan should open the file to add rec=pickle.load(f)

file. c+=1
(d) Fill in the blank in Line 4 to close the file. except EOFError:
(e) Write the output he will obtain while executing Line 5. break

f.close() sal=int(input("Enter Salary:"))
def CountRec(Author): l=[emp_id,ename,mo,sal]
c=0 w=csv.writer(f)
f=open("book.dat","rb") w.writerow(l)
while True: f.close()
