PHONE 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…
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 names and student numbers of students are save in a text file called stnumbers.txt. Example of the content of the text file:

Add a function that calculates the miles per gallon Define a function named calculate_mpg() before the main() function that calculates the miles per gallon. This function should accept two double values for the miles and gallons, round the result to two decimal places, and return the result as a double type.

Rename the copy Grade Solution-Intermediate. Open the Grade Solution.sln file contained in the Grade Solution-Intermediate folder. Open the CourseGrade.vb file. The DetermineGrade method should accept an integer that represents the total number of points that can be earned in the course. (Currently, the total number of points is 200: 100 points per test.) For an A grade, the student must earn at least 90% of the total points. For a B, C, and D grade, the student must earn at least 80%, 70%, and 60%, respectively. If the student earns less than 60% of the total points, the grade is F. Make the appropriate modifications to the DetermineGrade method and then save the solution. Unlock the controls on the form. Add a label control and a text box to the form. Change the label control’s Text property to “&Maximum points:” (without the quotation marks). Change the text box’s name to txtMax. Lock the controls and then reset the tab order. Open the form’s Code Editor window. The txtMax control should accept only numbers and the Backspace key. Code the appropriate procedure. The grade should be cleared when the user makes a change to the contents of the txtMax control. Code the appropriate procedure. Modify the frmMain_Load procedure so that each list box displays numbers from 0 through 200. Locate the btnDisplay_Click procedure. If the txtMax control does not contain a value, display an appropriate message. The maximum number allowed in the txtMax control should be 400; if the control contains a number that is more than 400, display an appropriate message. The statement that calculates the grade should pass the maximum number of points to the studentGrade object’s DetermineGrade method. Make the necessary modifications to the procedure. Save the solution and then start and test the application.arrow_forwardC Sharp Random Number File writer and Reader Create an application that writes a series of random numbers to a file. Each random number should be in the range of 1 through 100. The application should let the user specify how many randome numbers the file will hold and should use a SaveFileDialog control to let the user specify the file's name and Location. Create another application that uses an OpenFileDialog control to let the user select the file that was created above. This application should read the numbers from the file, display the numbers in a ListBox control and display: the total of the numbers and the number of random numbers read from the file.arrow_forward
- Finish 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.
