World Series Winners
In this chapter’s source code folder (available on the Computer Science Portal at www.pearsonhighered.com/gaddis), you will find a text file named worIdSerieswinners.txt. This file contains a chronological list of the World Series’ winning teams from 1903 through 2009. The first line in the file is the name of the team that won in 1903, and the last line is the name of the team that won in 2009. (Note the World Series was not played in 1904 or 1994. There are entries in the file indicating this.)
Write a
The program should prompt the user for a year in the range of 1903 through 2009. It should then display the name of the team that won the World Series that year, and the number of times that team has won the World Series.

1994 Weekly Gas GraphIn the student sample programs for this book, you will find a text file named 1994_Weekly_Gas_Averages.txt. The file contains the average gas price for each week in the year 1994.(There are 52 lines in the file.) Using matplotlib, write a Python program that reads thecontents of the file then plots the data as either a line graph or a bar chart. Be sure to displaymeaningful labels along the X and Y axes, as well as the tick marks.

Assignment 5C: Level Map Creator. There are a variety of ways that game developers store
their level layouts. One simple method is to associate level elements with certain symbols, and
then storing them in a 2D grid inside a text file. We will use our knowledge of 2D arrays to
create a very simple Level Map Creator tool.
The program should prompt the user to enter a width and height for the level. Then it should
initialize a 2D array and fill every element with the "*" symbol. Afterwards, the user should be
given the following options via a menu:
1. Clear Level
Re-initialize the 2D array and fill every element with the "*" symbol.
2. Add Platform
Prompt the user to enter a starting point and length for the
horizontal platform. Replace those elements in the 2D array with
the "=" symbol. If the length is longer than the number of columns
(or out of bounds), notify the user that this is not possible.
3. Add Item

- A Personal Fitness Tracker is a wearable device that tracks your physical activity, calories burned, heart rate, sleeping patterns, and so on. One common physical activity that most of these devices track is the number of steps you take each day. The file “steps.txt” at the following web link contains the number of steps a person has taken each day for a year. There are 365 lines in the file, and each line contains the number of steps taken during a day. (The first line is the number of steps taken on January 1st, the second line is the number of steps taken on January 2nd, and so forth.) Write a program that reads the file, then displays the average number of steps taken for each month. (The data is from a year that was not a leap year, so February has 28 days.) https://drive.google.com/file/d/1fBVZlrVC69MMkN- y1ICdUk2JVt4ia4L0/view?usp=sharing A successful test run of the program is as shown in the screenshot below:arrow_forwardPendant Publishing edits multi-volume manuscripts for many authors.

- C++HurdleWords The HurdleWords class is mostly provided to you. HurdleWords is constructed from two files in the data/ folder: ● valid_guesses.txt (all 5 letter guesses considered to be valid words to guess), and ● valid_hurdles.txt (all words that may be selected to be the secret Hurdle.) ● Note: you may edit both text files if you’d like to add custom words to your game. HurdleWords stores all potential valid Hurdles from valid_hurdles.txt into a vector of strings (valid_hurdles_), and all valid guesses from valid_guesses.txt into an unordered set of strings (valid_guesses_). A set is simply a data structure that contains no duplicates and allows for a speedy lookup to check if a given element exists within the set. Because there are over 10,000 valid guesses, we store them in an unordered set to leverage their speediness, as you will need to check if a user-submitted guess is considered valid (i.e. their guess is considered a valid guess in the dictionary).
