35. Preethi Shah is learning to work with binary files in Python using a process known
pickling/ unpickling. Her teacher has given her the following incomplete code,
which is creating a binary file namely Mydata.dat and then opens, reads and
displays the content of this created file,
_______________ #fill_line1
sqlist = list( )
for k in range(10):
sqlist.append(k*k)
fout = ______________ #fill_line2A
_________________ #fill_line3
fout.close( )

Page-14
 fin = _______________ #fill_line2B
___________________ #fill_line4
fin.close( )
print (“Data from file :”, mylist)

Help her complete the above code as per the instructions given below:
a. Complete fill_line1 so that required python library becomes available to the
program
b. Complete fill_line2A so that the above-mentioned binary file is opened for
writing in the file object fout
c. Similarly complete fill_line2B, which will open the same binary file for
sending in the file object fin.
d. Complete fill_line3 so that the list created in the code, namely sqlist, is
written in the open file.
e. Complete fill_line4 so that the contents of the open file in the file handle fin
are read in a list namely mylist.
