70000 .

35 Soham is a Python programmer working in an Organization . To maintain the 2+2=4

records of the employees , he has created a binary file named EMP.dat, to store
the details about the employees . The structure of EMP.dat is :

[EmpNo, Name, Salary, Gender, Designation]

Where
EmpNo is Employee Number (integer)
Name is Employee Name (string)
Salary is Employee Salary (integer)
Gender is Employee Gender (string)
Designation is Employee Designation (string)

For efficiently maintaining data for the Organization , Soham wants to write the
following user defined functions:

CREATE() - to add records to the binary file “EMP.dat” .

SEARCH() - to search and display the details of all those employees whose
salary is in the range of 50,000 to 80,000.
