Binary File Questions

The document contains 10 questions related to binary file handling in Python. Various functions are defined to perform operations like adding, modifying, searching, counting and deleting records from binary files with different structures like [BookNo, Book_Name, Author, Price] and [employee id, employee name, salary]. Functions include CreateFile() to add records, countRec() to count records by author, searchprod() to search by product code, routechange() to modify route name, and delrec() to delete a record by employee number. Pickling is used to read and write objects to binary files.

and add to Book.dat .
2. Write a function CountRec(Author) in Python which accepts the
Author name as parameter and count and return number of books
by the given Author are stored in the binary file “Book.dat
import pickle
def createfile():
fobj=open("Book.dat","ab")
BookNo=int(input("Enter Book Number : "))
