Question

in python please
PROBLEM : (15 POINTS Use the file 'presidents age, txt You can download this file from D2L (Content' tab) to your lo computer This file contains the age (at the time of their inaguration) of the first 45 presidents (including repeats). Each president's name is separated from his age by a comma Write a function called getAges (). Inside this function, create a dictionary in which every key is the name, and the value is the president's age (as a number-not a string) Your function should return this dictionary Hints Recall that every item is stored as a string. So you will need to cast to a float Note that the age is a float. Use the round function to remove the decimals. For example round (69.95) would return 69. Exception handling If the function can't find the file, a FileNotFoundError exception will be generated. If this happens, handle the exception by outputting: "Unable to find the file." And then inside the same except block, return a -1 To test your code dctPresidents- getAges () print (detPresidents) Here are the first several items that would be output by the above print ( statement. Recall that your order may be different since dictionaries are not ordered Ronald Reagan' s 70, 'Benjanin Harrison' 56, Lyndon B. Johnaon' 55 MLLiam Howard Taft': 51, Richard Nixon': 56, erbert Boover': 55, James Buchanan's 66,dohn Adans' 61, 'Grover Cleveland (2nd Inauguration)'s 60,John Quincy Adama't 58, The reset is left out to ave space)

Answer 1

First of all you didn't provide a presidents_age.txt file you mentioned as a picture in question but using some technology i made it to a text file my own

And here is your Python Program :

Output:

Raw code:

def getAges():
   f=open('presidents_age.txt','r').read()

   g=f.split('\n')

   lt=[]

   for i in g:
       lt.append(i.split(','))

   lt.pop()   

   dic = dict((x[0],round(float(x[1]))) for x in lt)

   return dic

dctPresidents = getAges()

print(dctPresidents)

I clearly made comments in code ..

I take the file and split it into list by '\n' a new line

then again split the list by ',' comma and append it into another list

then I take list[0] and list[1] add to the dictionary as you mentioned that age be a round ..

Thank You ,Hope you Get it ..Give a thumps up .. (Like)
