Question 11A (12 points)
In a university we structure course offerings into sections (e.g. CS100_002). Each section has a list of zero
or more students enrolled in it. Write a definition line for a class named Section and a one-line docstring
that describes what a section is.
Write definitions for the following methods in the Section class:
1. An initialization method. The initialization method should:
 take a single parameter of type string, section_id, and assign it to the instance
attribute section_id of the section being created
 create an instance attribute named enrolled_students for the section being created
and initialize it to the empty list
2. A method named enroll. This method should take the name of a student as a string
parameter and add it to the list of students for that section. You may assume that every name
is in “First Name Last Name” format and that every name is unique.
3. A method named is_enrolled. This method should take the name of a student as a string
parameter. If the student is in the section’s list of enrolled students, is_enrolled should
return True, otherwise it should return False.

Question 11B (8 points)


Assume that the code for the class Section (Question 11A) has been saved in a file named section.py.
Write code that performs the following tasks (each task takes one line):
1. import the module that defines the class Section
2. create a section with ID Math111_101
3. enroll students Joe Josephson and Mary Smith in Math111_101
4. check whether Mary Josephson is enrolled in Math111_101 and print the result
Question 12 (20 points)
Write a function named inverse that takes a single parameter, a dictionary. In this dictionary each key is
a student, represented by a string. The value of each key is a list of courses, each represented by a string,
in which the student is enrolled.
The function inverse should compute and return a dictionary in which each key is a course and the
associated value is a list of students enrolled in that course.
For example, the following would be correct input and output.
>>> student_courses = {'Elise':[],'Nelson':['CS100','MATH111'],'Justin':['CS100']}
>>> print(inverse(student_courses))
{'CS100': ['Nelson', 'Justin'], 'MATH111': ['Nelson']}

Question 13 (20 points)


Write a function named fileStats. The function fileStats takes two parameters:
1. inFile, a string that is the name of an input file
2. outFile, a string that is the name of an output file

The function fileStats should read and analyze each line of the input file and write two statistics,
separated by a space, about the line to a corresponding line of the output file.
The two statistics for each line are:
1. the number of words
2. the number of digits (digits are the characters in positive integers: 0, 1, 2, …, 9)
For example, if the file monthStats.txt contains the following lines:
February has 28 days or 29 in a leap year
January and March have 31 days
April has 30 days

Then the function call:


fileStats('monthStats.txt', 'monthStatsOut.txt')

should produce an output file monthStatsOut.txt with the following content:


10 4
6 2
4 2
