Virus DNA files
As a future doctor, Jojo works in a laboratory that analyzes viral DNA. Due to the pandemic During the virus outbreak, Jojo received many requests to analyze whether there was any viral DNA in the patient. This number of requests made Jojo's job even more difficult. Therefore, Jojo ask Lili who is a programmer for help to make a program that can read the file containing the patient's DNA data and viral DNA and then match them. If on the patient's DNA found the exact same string pattern, then write to the index screen the found DNA. Data contained in the file testdata.in
Input Format
The first line of input is the number of test cases TThe second row and so on as many as T rows are the S1 string of patient DNA and the S2 string of viral DNA separated by spaces
Output Format
The array index found the same string pattern.
Constraints
1 ≤ T ≤ 1003 ≤ |S2| ≤ |S1| ≤ 100|S| is the length of the string.S will only consist of lowercase letters [a-z]
Sample Input (testdata.in)…
Should not be case sensitive when getting the column name. Use python language for a program that modifies and sorts the content of a specific csv file based on the inputted column name. The program should ask Enter filename: Enter column name to be sorted: Additionally, the csv file must be modified and no additional csv files must be created. The application will catch and display an error message "the file does not exist" if the csv file does not exist.
The Apgar Medical group keeps a patient file for each doctor in the office. Each record contains the patient's first and last name, home address, and birth year. The records are sorted in ascending birth year order. Write a program so that display a count of the number of patients born each year

(Another quick note: Don't let yourself get stuck on something for too long. If one part of one question starts taking you too long, just leave it, move on and come back to it later.) Write a complete Python program that ask the user for quantity of random numbers and a maximum, then generates and store that many numbers between 0 and the maximum. When you've got this part working, add the following interesting additions: minimum maximum random choice from existing list (Hint: if there are 7 numbers it will be a number at a random index 0-6) the list reversed* the list sorted* Note*: Python's .reverse() and .sort() list methods do NOT return the reversed or sorted list... they modify the list in place.So, if you write something like: print(numbers.sort()) You will not get what you expect.

If they do enter an integer, call a function named lookup_employee which takes the id as a parameter. If an employee with the given id number is found, return the name. Otherwise, return the string “Employee not found” Back in main, print the return result.

- A Company wants to produce a product orders report from its product orders file. Each record on the file contains the product number of the item ordered, the product description, the number of units ordered, the retail price per unit, the freight charges per unit, and the packaging costs per unit. Your algorithm is to read the product orders file, calculate the total amount due for each product ordered and print these details on the product orders report. The amount due for each product is calculated as the product of the number of units ordered and the retail price of the unit. A discount of 10% is allowed on the amount due for all orders over GHC100.00. The freight charges and packaging costs per unit must be added to this resulting value to determine the total amount due. Answer should be in pseudo codearrow_forwardPHONE DIRECTORYDescription: Create a phonebook directory that will store the contact numbers of N persons. Your program should allow the user to add, view, delete, and update the contacts in the phonebook. Note that one person can have multiple contact numbers. The program will stop when the user command is ‘X’. Program command and entry should not be case-sensitive. That means commands ‘I’ or ‘i’ and the name “Jacky” or “JACKY” are the same. Each contact number can be 7 digits or 11 digits only. The user should input a string containing the command, name, and contact number(s) (Limit the contact number of each person to three). This string should be broken down into fields in order to separate the different values and store them in their appropriate variables. Use linked list in the implementation. Your node must declare at least four instance variables. Program flow: Command> I Jacky 09211234567 Remarks: New contact has been added. Command> V Jacky Contact…arrow_forwardFinish this program from the code posted below! Note: There should be two files Main.py and Contact.py You will implement the edit_contact function. In the function, do the following: Ask the user to enter the name of the contact they want to edit. If the contact exists, in a loop, give them the following choices Remove one of the phone numbers from that Contact. Add a phone number to that Contact. Change that Contact's email address. Change that Contact's name (if they do this, you will have to remove the key/value pair from the dictionary and re-add it, since the key is the contact’s name. Use the dictionary's pop method for this!) Stop editing the Contact Once the user is finished making changes to the Contact, the function should return.

In this case, your code is simply going to ask for a username and password, and then check the input against four users. The program will give the user three tries to input the correct username-password combination. There will be four acceptable user-password combinations: • alpha-alpha1 • beta-beta1 • gamma-gamma1 • delta - delta1 If the user types in one of the correct username-password combinations, then the program will output: "Login successful."

One common physical activity that most of these devices track is the number of steps you take each day. The steps.txt file 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.) You don't need to see the file , Just write a code using the "file" like this def main(): with open("steps.txt", "r") as file:arrow_forward
- Instructions: 1. Create a Python file A01_RO6_CUSN_monthlyBalance.py that shows customers how their deposits grow over time (in units of months). The program should: 1.1. Read the initial balance and the annual interest rate. The interest rate should then be increased by the last digit of your student number (e.g. if your student number is 100123456 and the user inputs 2%, then the interest used for calculations would be 2% + 6% to be 8%) 1.2. Calculate interest that is compounded monthly. 1.3. Print the monthly balance for the entered number of months. The output of your code should resemble the following: Please enter the annual interest rate: Please enter the initial balance: 1000 Please enter the number of months to know the balance: Initial Balance: $1000 Annual Interest Rate: 9% After 1 month: $1007.5 After 2 month: $1015.06 After 3 month: $1022.67 After 4 month: $1030.34 After 5 month: $1038.07 Additional Notes: 1.
