1. Write a function that, given a file path/name as a string opens the file and returns its entire contents as a single string. Any endline characters should be preserved. char *getFileContents(const char *filePath); 2. Write a function that, given a file path/name as a string opens the file and returns the contents of the file as an array of strings. Each element in the array should correspond to a line in the file. Any end line character should be chomped out and not included. The size of the resulting array of strings needs to be communicated to the calling function using the pass-by-reference numLines parameter (it is not input). char **getFileLines(const char *filePath, int *numLines);

Complete the below function that takes a file name and a list as arguments and reads the text within the corresponding file, then creates a dictionary whose keys are the characters of the provided list, and the values are the counts of these characters within the text. If a character in the list is not included in the text, "0" should be written in the dictionary as the value of this character. The function returns the created dictionary as a result. If the file does not exist, then the function returns an empty dictionary. def text2dict(filename, characters): in python
please code in pythonredact_file: This function takes a string filename. It writes a new file that has the same contentsas the argument, except that all of the phone numbers are redacted. Assume that the filename has onlyone period in it. The new filename is the same as the original with '_redacted' added before theperiod. For instance, if the input filename were 'myfile.txt', the output filename would be'myfile_redacted.txt'. Make sure you close your output file.The first hard task in this function is to make the output filename from the input filename that waspassed in. You can break it into two pieces by splitting on the dot or by using the index method andslicing. Then put it back together again using string concatenation.We are also working with files in this one. To open a file with a filename stored in the variable fname,in read mode use the open function as such: fp = open(fname). You will need to open the outputfile in write mode: open(fname, 'w'). Then you can traverse the…

This function returns a char array created with memory allocation. read_file(len, clear_file); // Where len > zero, reads len chars from a file. clear_file is a string containing the path to the clear text file. This function returns a char array created with memory allocation. write_file(0, key, key_file); // Writes a string to file until the \0 char is reached. key is the string of random chars and key_file is a string containing the path of the text file. write_file(len, cipher, cipher_file); // Where len > zero, writes len chars to a file. cipher is the cipher string of chars and cipher_file is a string containing the path of the text file.

readEmpFromFile Implement a function readEmpFromFile that takes a FILE * as the only argument and returns a pointer to a struct employee. This function should read the information from the file (reversing what writeEmpToFile does), create a new employee and fill in the data. If the FILE has no more info (is at end of file), this function should return NULL. This function must also ensure any employee actually created (not the NULL) is added to the array (as is done in createEmployee). Change main to load employees from a file using a command called LOAD which is given to the program using (using your readEmpFromFile function you just wrote). void main(void) { int end = 1; char * command; char buff[256]; char * findEmp; char findBuff[256]; char * sortType; char sortBuff[256]; char hire[] = "HIRE"; char list[] = "LIST"; char quit[] = "QUIT"; char find[] = "FIND"; char fire[] = "FIRE"; char _sort[] = "SORT"; char salary[] =…
Array/File FunctionsWrite a function named arrayToFile. The function should accept three arguments:the name of a file, a pointer to an int array, and the size of the array. The functionshould open the specified file in binary mode, write the contents of the array to the file,and then close the file.Write another function named fileToArray. This function should accept three arguments: the name of a file, a pointer to an int array, and the size of the array. Thefunction should open the specified file in binary mode, read its contents into the array,and then close the file.Write a complete program that demonstrates these functions by using the arrayToFilefunction to write an array to a file, and then using the fileToArray function to readthe data from the same file. After the data are read from the file into the array, displaythe array’s contents on the screen.
