Question

1. Write a Python program called “exam.py”. The input file, “input.txt”, is given to you in the Canvas exam instructions.
2. Name your output file “output.txt”.
3. Ensure the program consists of a main function and at least one other function.
4. Ensure the program will read the input file, and will output the following information to the output file as well as printing it to the screen:

• output the text of the file to screen
• output the number of words in the file
• output the number of sentences in the file
• output the first sentence in the file
• output the last sentence in the file
• output the length of the first sentence
• output the length of the last sentence
• output the first word in the file
• output the first letter in the file
• output the last word in the file
• output the last letter in the file

The input file, “input.txt” is called parse Text.txt

Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate — we can not consecrate — we can not hallow — this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us — that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion — that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain — that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom — and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

# function to read the file and return the data
def readFile(filename):
    file = open(filename, 'r')
    data = file.read()
    return data

# main function
def main():

    # call function to get data of file
    data = readFile('input.txt')
    outFile = open('output.txt', 'w')
    print(data)


    # now display and write the data one by one

    words = data.split()
    print('Number of words:', len(words))
    outFile.write('Number of words: {}'.format(len(words)))

    sentences = data.split('.')
    sentences = sentences[:len(sentences)-1]
    print('Number of sentences:', len(sentences))
    outFile.write('Number of sentences:'.format(len(sentences)))

    print('First sentence:', sentences[0])
    outFile.write('First sentence: {}'.format(sentences[0]))

    print('Last sentence:', sentences[len(sentences)-1])
    outFile.write('Last sentence: {}'.format(sentences[len(sentences)-1]))

    print('Length of first sentence:', len(sentences[0]))
    outFile.write('Length of first sentence: {}'.format(len(sentences[0])))

    print('Length of last sentence:', len(sentences[len(sentences)-1]))
    outFile.write('Length of last sentence: {}'.format(len(sentences[len(sentences)-1])))

    print('First word:', words[0])
    outFile.write('First word: {}'.format(words[0]))

    print('Last word:', words[len(words)-1])
    outFile.write('Last word: {}'.format(words[len(words)-1]))

    print('First letter:', words[0][0])
