Q3:IN SML language how would I write a string to integer function that inputs a filename and returns zero if the contents inside the file is blank.
File redirection allows you to redirect standard input (keyboard) and instead read from a file specified at the command prompt. It requires the use of the < operator (e.g. java MyProgram < input_file.txt)

You are going to decode the scrambled word into correct orderin this game. One round of play is as follows:1. Computer reads a text file named words.txt2. Computer randomly picks one word in the file and randomly scrambles characters in the wordmany times to hide the word3. Computer displays the scrambled word to user with indexes and gives the user options to1. Swap two letters in word based on index given2. Solve the puzzle directly3. Quit the game4. If a player chooses to swap letters, the computer reads two indexes and swaps the letters. Thegame resume to step 3 with the newly guessed word. If the resulted word after swapping is thesecret word, the game is over.5. If a user chooses to solve directly, computer prompts the user to enter the guessed word. If it’scorrect, the game is over, otherwise goes to step 3.6.

It writes a new file that has the same contentsas the argument, except that all of the phone numbers are redacted. Assume that the filename has onlyone period in it. The new filename is the same as the original with '_redacted' added before theperiod. For instance, if the input filename were 'myfile.txt', the output filename would be'myfile_redacted.txt'. Make sure you close your output file.The first hard task in this function is to make the output filename from the input filename that waspassed in. You can break it into two pieces by splitting on the dot or by using the index method andslicing. Then put it back together again using string concatenation.We are also working with files in this one. To open a file with a filename stored in the variable fname,in read mode use the open function as such: fp = open(fname). You will need to open the outputfile in write mode: open(fname, 'w').

Use the information to calculate and displays a person’s body mass index (BMI). The BMI is often used to determine whether a person with a sedentary lifestyle is overweight or underweight for his or her height. A person’s BMI is calculated with the following formula: BMI = weight × 703 / height2 where weight is measured in pounds and height is measured in inches. The file is in the format name weightInKG heightInCM You will read the name, weight and height for 4 people from the file, and you will need to convert the weights in the file to pounds (note that 1 kilogram = 2.2 pounds) and the heights to inches (2.54 cm = 1 inch). The program should display the person's name along with the calculated BMI and a message indicating whether the person has optimal weight, is underweight, or is overweight.
