Binary Example PGM

The document describes a Python program for managing passenger records stored in a binary file named PASSENGERS.DAT. It includes three user-defined functions: Create() for inputting and saving passenger data, SearchDestn(D) for retrieving passengers based on their destination, and UpdateFare() for increasing the fare of all passengers by 5%. The program utilizes the pickle module for serialization and deserialization of passenger records.

A file, PASSENGERS.

DAT, stores the records of passengers using the following


structure:
[PNR, PName, BRDSTN, DESTN, FARE]
where:
PNR -Passenger Number (string type)
PName -Passenger Name (string type)
BRDSTN - Boarding Station Name (string type)
DESTN - Destination Station Name (string type)
FARE - Fare amount for the journey (float type)
Write user defined functions in Python for the following tasks:
(1) Create() to input data for passengers and write it in the binary file
PASSENGERS.DAT.
(ii) SearchDestn (D) - to read contents from the file PASSENGERS.DAT and display
the details of those Passengers whose DESTN matches with the value of D.
(iii) UpdateFare () - to increase the fare of all passengers by 5% and rewrite the
updated records into the file PASSENGERS.DAT.
