35 As a Python expert, help Rehaan to complete the following code based on the requirement given:

import ____________ #Statement 1

def update_data():
rec={}
fin=open("record.dat","rb")
fout=open("_____________") #Statement 2
found=False
sid=int(input("Enter student id to update their marks :: "))
while True:
try:
rec=______________ #Statement 3
if rec["Student_id"]==sid:
found=True
rec["Marks"]=int(input("Enter new marks :: "))
pickle.____________ #Statement 4
else:
pickle.dump(rec,fout)
except:
break
if found==True:
print("The mark of student id ",sid," has been updated.")
else:
print("No student with such id is found")
fin.close()
fout.close()

(iii) Which statement should Rehaan fill in Statement 3 to read the data from the binary file 2
record.dat, and in Statement 4 to write the updated data in the file, temp.dat?

Ans) (i) pickle(1 mark for correct module)

(ii) fout=open(‘temp.dat’, ‘wb’) (1 mark for correct statement)
