You are working on a Python program designed to manage student records stored in a file. The goal is to read the file containing details such as the students’ names, roll numbers, branches, and other attributes, and then filter the data based on the branch specified by the user. The program should accurately extract and display the filtered records in a clear and organized format. The task involves handling file operations to read data, applying filtering logic to segregate records by branch, and ensuring the output is user-friendly and informative. Let me know if you need help with any part of this!
You are working on a Python program to read student records from a file, filter them by branch, and display the results. You may have attempted to use file-handling techniques like opening the file in read mode (open() function) and reading its contents line by line or all at once. To filter the data, you might have tried splitting the records using delimiters (like commas or tabs, depending on the file format) and then applied conditional checks to match the branch.
What you likely expected was a seamless execution where:
The file is read correctly without errors.
Records are filtered accurately based on the branch provided by the user.
The filtered data is displayed in an easy-to-read format, meeting your requirements.
If the program didn’t behave as expected, the issues could range from file-reading errors, incorrect filtering logic, improperly formatted data in the file, or unexpected output formatting. Let me know where you faced difficulties, and I’ll help debug!
