The File class contains file input and output operations. In other words, you can
use the File class to read and write content from and to files.
True
False
Using C++ Language
Create a file called input9B.txt and type (or copy) the following text exactly as it appears below into that file. You may cut and paste the following 7 blue lines (including the blank line between the two paragraphs) into that file: C++ is a cross-platform language that can be used to create high-performance applications. C++ was developed by Bjarne Stroustrup, as an extension to the C language. C++ gives programmers a high level of control over system resources and memory. C++ is one of the world's most popular programming languages. C++ can be found in today's operating systems, Graphical User Interfaces, and embedded systems. C++ is an object-oriented programming language which gives a clear structure to programs and allows code to be reused, lowering development costs.
Compile and run the program, using the input9B.txt file as the input file. Did this program produce the same exact output as shown above? What do you think the problem is? The problem is…
The python function get_second_line takes one parameter, fname, the name of a text file. The function should open the file for reading, determine the second line of the file, close the file, and return the second line (a string).
NOTE: You may assume the file will have at least two lines.

- Slide Type Slide • Exercise # 4 A hotel salesperson enters sales in a text file. Each line contains the following, separated by semicolons: • The name of the client, the service sold (such as Dinner, Conference, Lodging, and so on), • The amount of the sale, and the date of that event. • Write a program that reads such a file and displays the total amount for each service category. Display an error if the file does not exit or the format of the record is incorrect. No need to display anything else in this regard. Note that you can assume that the dates are entered correctly (no need to validate them). You may also assume that the name of the input text file is inputex4.txt. • Make sure you use a dictionary in your solution. • Sample run is included below for the given input file inputex4.txt Summary of total sales according to services Dinner 634.75 Conference 1133.25 Lodging Dinner and Lodging 550.25 625.14 Slide Tyne Fragment varrow_forwardCODE IN PYTHON PLEASE The objective is to create a code in Python that can extract the columns highlighted in blue (Column T and AB3) and output them to a .txt file.
