2. working with databases and files in python

a) Write a function with prototype “def profound():” that will prompt the user to type something profound. It will then record the date and time using the “datetime” module and then append the date, time and profound line to a file called “profound.txt”. Do only one line per function call. Use a single write and f-string such that the file contents look like:

2020-10-27 11:20:22 -- Has eighteen letters does

2020-10-27 11:20:36 -- something profound

b) Write a function with prototype “def bestwords():” that will prompt the user to enter a line with some of the best words (separated by spaces). These will be converted to lower case and stored in a data base file (using the dbm and pickle modules) whose keys are a tuple of the current year, month and day (using the datetime module) and the “values” are a set of words collected on that day. Each new word should be checked against all previously-entered words (even those on other days) and it is not added if it already exists in the database. (Hint: I simply subtracted all previous sets of words from the current set, then added that new set to the one for the current day (if it already existed).

c) Write a function with prototype “def printbestwords():” that will simply open the database of best words and print the keys and values, sorted by the keys. Don’t forget to close the database on exit. Example output:

(2020, 10, 26) {'infantroopen', 'susbesdig'}

(2020, 10, 27) {'deligitimatize'}

(2020, 10, 28) {'transpants', 'resaption'}
