Q1:

Define the following Python file reading methods with syntax: read(), readline(), and readlines().

- read(): Reads the entire content of the file as a single string.

Example:

```python

with open("[Link]", "r") as file:

content = [Link]()

```

- readline(): Reads a single line from the file.

Example:

```python

with open("[Link]", "r") as file:

line = [Link]()

```

- readlines(): Reads all lines and returns a list.

Example:

```python

with open("[Link]", "r") as file:

lines = [Link]()

```

Q2:
What is the purpose of the write() and writelines() methods in Python?

- write(): Writes a single string to a file.

Example:

```python

with open("[Link]", "w") as file:

[Link]("Hello World")

```

- writelines(): Writes a list of strings to a file.

Example:

```python

with open("[Link]", "w") as file:

[Link](["Line 1\n", "Line 2\n", "Line 3\n"])

```

Q3:

Write a Python program to create a new file called [Link], write three lines of student data into

it, and then read the content back using read().

```python

# Writing to file

with open("[Link]", "w") as file:

[Link]("John, 85\n")

[Link]("Alice, 90\n")

[Link]("Bob, 78\n")
# Reading from file

with open("[Link]", "r") as file:

content = [Link]()

print(content)

```

Q4:

Write a program that reads a file line by line using readline() and prints only the lines that contain

more than 10 characters.

```python

with open("[Link]", "r") as file:

for line in file:

if len([Link]()) > 10:

print([Link]())

```

Q5:

Explain the difference between text mode and binary mode in file operations. Write one example for

each.

- Text Mode ('t'): Default mode; handles files as text.

Example:

```python

with open("[Link]", "r") as file:

content = [Link]()

```
- Binary Mode ('b'): Used for binary files like images or executables.

Example:

```python

with open("[Link]", "rb") as file:

data = [Link]()

```
