Write a Python 3 program to read from a .csv file containing rates from power companies. Your program should determine the avera
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

In python:

file = open("rates.csv", "r")

ratecount = 0

ratesum = 0

mylist = []

rates = file.readlines()

for nums in rates:

     num = nums.rstrip('\n')

     mylist.append(int(num))

     for i in num:

           ratesum= ratesum + int(i)

           ratecount = ratecount + 1

print("Maximum Rate: "+str(max(mylist)))

print("Minimum Rate: "+str(min(mylist)))

print("Average Rate: "+str(ratesum/ratecount))

Explanation:

This opens the csv file

file = open("rates.csv", "r")

This initializes the number of rates in the file

ratecount = 0

This initializes the sum of the rates

ratesum = 0

This initializes an empty list

mylist = []

This reads the rates into lines

rates = file.readlines()

This iterates through the rates (as a string)

for nums in rates:

This removes the newline character \n in the rates

     num = nums.rstrip('\n')

This appends the rates (as an integer) to the empty list

     mylist.append(int(num))

The following counts the rates in the file and also sum them up

<em>      for i in num: </em>

<em>            ratesum= ratesum + int(i) </em>

<em>            ratecount = ratecount + 1 </em>

This prints the maximum of the rates

print("Maximum Rate: "+str(max(mylist)))

This prints the minimum of the rates

print("Minimum Rate: "+str(min(mylist)))

This calculates and prints the average rate

print("Average Rate: "+str(ratesum/ratecount))

Write two separate formulas using different commands that concatenate " john and "smith" together to form " John Smith"
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

1. =CONCATENATE(" John"," ","Smith")

2. =(" John"&" "&"Smith")

Explanation:

Given

Two separate strings; "John" and "Smith"

Required

2 separate formulas to concatenate both strings to form " John Smith"

There are several ways to concatenate strings in Microsoft Office Excel; one of the methods is using the concatenate function while the another method is using the traditional & operator.

Using the concatenate function, the formula is as follows

=CONCATENATE(" John"," ","Smith")

This function will combine the " John", " " and "Smith" to give a new string " John Smith" (without the quotes).

Using the traditional & operator may be a little bit difficult (and not frequently used) but the formula is as follows;

=(" John"&" "&"Smith")

The result will be the same as (1) above
