the stack
(ii) Pop_element() - To Pop the objects from the stack and display them. Also, display “Stack Empty” when
there are no elements in the stack.
For example: If the lists of customer details are:
[“Gurdas”, “99999999999”,”Goa”]
[“Julee”, “8888888888”,”Mumbai”]
[“Murugan”,”77777777777”,”Cochin”]
[“Ashmit”, “1010101010”,”Goa”]

[“Ashmit”,”1010101010”]
[“Gurdas”,”9999999999”]
The output should be:
[“Ashmit”,”1010101010”]
[“Gurdas”,”9999999999”]
Stack Empty

30.Write a function in Python, Push(SItem) where , SItem is a dictionary containing the details of stationary
items– {Sname:price}. The function should push the names of those items in the stack who have price
greater than 75. Also display the count of elements pushed into the stack. For example: If the dictionary
contains the following data:
Ditem={"Pen":106,"Pencil":59,"Notebook":80,"Eraser":25}
The stack should contain
Notebook
Pen
The output should be:
The count of elements in the stack is 2
31.A list, NList contains following record as list elements:
[City, Country, distance from Delhi]
Each of these records are nested together to form a nested list. Write the following user defined functions in
Python to perform the specified operations on the stack named travel.
(i) Push_element(NList): It takes the nested list as an argument and pushes a list object containing name of
the city and country, which are not in India and distance is less than 3500 km from Delhi.
(ii) Pop_element(): It pops the objects from the stack and displays them. Also, the function should display
“Stack Empty” when there are no elements in the stack.
For example: If the nested list contains the following data:
NList=[["New York", "U.S.A.", 11734],
["Naypyidaw", "Myanmar", 3219],
["Dubai", "UAE", 2194],
["London", "England", 6693],
["Gangtok", "India", 1580],
["Columbo", "Sri Lanka", 3405]] T
he stack should contain:
['Naypyidaw', 'Myanmar'],
['Dubai', 'UAE'],
['Columbo', 'Sri Lanka']
The output should be:
 ['Columbo', 'Sri Lanka']
['Dubai', 'UAE']
['Naypyidaw', 'Myanmar']

SECTION-D ( 4 X 4 = 16 MARKS)
32.A) List one advantage and one disadvantage of star topology. OR B) Expand the term SMTP. What is the
use of SMTP?
33.A) You have a stack named BooksStack that contains records of books. Each book record is represented
as a list containing book_title, author_name, and publication_year. Write the following user-defined
functions in Python to perform the specified operations on the stack BooksStack:
(I) push_book(BooksStack, new_book): This function takes the stack BooksStack and a new book record
new_book as arguments and pushes the new book record onto the stack.
(II) pop_book(BooksStack): This function pops the topmost book record from the stack and returns it. If the
stack is already empty, the function should display "Underflow".
(III) peep(BookStack): This function displays the topmost element of the stack without deleting it. If the
stack is empty, the function should display 'None'.

34. Write the definition of a user-defined function `push_even(N)` which accepts a list of integers in a
parameter `N` and pushes all those integers which are even from the list `N` into a Stack named
`EvenNumbers`. Write function pop_even() to pop the topmost number from the stack and returns it. If the
stack is already empty, the function should display "Empty". Write function Disp_even() to display all
element of the stack without deleting them. If the stack is empty, the function should display 'None'.
For example: If the integers input into the list `VALUES` are:
[10, 5, 8, 3, 12]
Then the stack `EvenNumbers` should store:
[10, 8, 12]
