Given a text file containing the availability of food items, write a program that reads the information from the text file and outputs the available food items. The program should first read the name of the text file from the user. The program then should read the text file, line by line. If a food is available, the program should output the available food item in the following format: name (category) -- description
Assume the text file contains the category, name, description, and availability of at least one food item, separated by a tab character ('\t').
Hints: Use the find() function to find the index of a tab character in each row of the text file. Use the substr() function to extract the text separated by the tab characters.
Ex: If the input of the program is:
food.txt
and the contents of food.txt are:
Sandwiches Ham sandwich Classic ham sandwich Available Sandwiches Chicken salad sandwich Chicken salad sandwich Not available Sandwiches Cheeseburger Classic cheeseburger Not…
Create a program that reads three lines from a text file. Each line should be read one at a time. For each word on a line, the user should be asked to specify how many syllables are in that word. The program should then inform the user if the file contains a valid Hiku using the function below:
def isHiku (firstLine, secondLine, thirdLine):if (firstLine == 5 and secondLine == 7 and thirdLine == 5):
return True return False
print("The file contains a Hiku:", isHiku(5,7,5))Note: You must replace the values in the function with the numbers counted by your program.
1. Write a program that opens an output file with the filename my_name.txt, writes your name to the file, then closes the file.
2. Write a program that opens the my_name.txt file that was created by the program in problem 1, reads your name from the file, displays the name on the screen, then closes the file. Write code that does the following: opens an output file with the filename number_list.

Write a program that reads the name of a text file containing a list of photo file names. The program then reads the photo file names from the text file, replaces the "_photo.jpg" portion of the file names with "_info.txt", and outputs the modified file names. Assume the unchanged portion of the photo file names contains only letters and numbers, and the text file stores one photo file name per line. If the text file is empty, the program produces no output.

The program must be able to produce a chart from any data file arranged as described above. The name of the data file and the output file are provided on the command line. The program must check that there are enough command line arguments and stop with a suitable message if not. The program saves the chart to the output file (2nd command line argument); it may also display the chart to the terminal, but it is not required to.

- Write a program that allows the user to navigate the lines of text in a file. The program should prompt the user for a filename and input the lines of text into a list. The program then enters a loop in which it prints the number of lines in the files and prompts the user for a line number. Actual line numbers range from 1 to the number of lines in the file. If the input is 0, the program quits. Otherwise, the program prints the line associated with that number.arrow_forwardWrite a program in cpp that gives and takes advice on program writing. The program starts by writinga piece of advice to the screen and asking the user to type in a different piece of advice. The program then ends.The next person to run the program receives the advice given by the person who last ran the program. The adviceis kept in a file, and the contents of the file change after each run of the program. You can use your editor to enterthe initial piece of advice in the file so that the first person who runs the program receives some advice. Allow theuser to type in advice of any length so that it can be any number of lines long. The user is told to end his or heradvice by pressing the Return key two times. Your program can then test to see that it has reached the end of theinput by checking to see when it reads two consecutive occurrences of the character ‘\n’.arrow_forwardC++ I have three .txt files.
