File handling in python

Question

I want to input a name that is already in a file and when it is inputed it deletes the name from the file

Answer 1

You may want to brush up on your syntax.

name = input()
with open(<file>) as names:
name_list = names.readlines()
if name in name_list:
index = 0
for n in range(len(name_list)):
if name_list[index] == name:
name_list.pop(index)
with open(<file>, w) as file:
file.writelines(name_list)

Answer 2

a=open(‘filename.txt’, ‘w+’)
a.write(the names goes here)
Line=a.read()

Answer 3

That depends on how the names are written to the file. Provide examples and your attempt

Answer 4

Create a file with a list of patients awaiting organ donation, write a program where i can enter a patient's name and if the patient exists delete the patient's name from the file but if the patient doesn't exist add it to the file.

Answer 5

Okay, so lets see your attempt at that

Answer 6

Name=input()
X=open(‘txt’, ‘w+’)
X.write(the names goes here)
Line=x.read()
For lines in line:
If line == name:
Line.remove()
Else:
X.write(name)

Answer 7

We have to write in the file the list before this

Answer 8
