PICKELING AND UNPICKLING USING PICKLE MODULE

KVS RO AGRA
PICKELING AND UNPICKLING USING PICKEL
MODULE
Use the python module pickle for structured
data such as list or directory to a file.
PICKLING refers to the process of converting
the structure to a byte stream before writing to a
file.
while reading the contents of the file, a
reverse process called UNPICKLING is used to
convert the byte stream back to the original
structure.

PICKLING AND UNPICKLING USING PICKEL
MODULE
Firstly we need to import the pickle module, It
provides two main methods:
1) dump() method
2) load() method

KVS RO AGRA
pickle.dump() Method

KVS RO AGRA
pickle.dump() method write the object in binary file.
Syntax of dump method is:
dump(object ,fileobject)

KVS RO AGRA
# A program to write list sequence in a binary file

KVS RO AGRA
pickle.load() Method

KVS RO AGRA
pickle.load() Method
pickle.load() method is used to read the binary file.

BINARY FILE R/W OPERATION USING PICKLE MODULE
import pickle
Wr_file = open(r"C:UserslenovoDesktoppython filesbin1.bin", "wb")
myint = 56
mylist = ["Python", "Java", "Oracle"]
mystring = "Binary File Operations"
mydict = { "ename": "John", "Desing": "Manager" }
pickle.dump(myint, Wr_file)
pickle.dump(mylist, Wr_file)
pickle.dump(mystring, Wr_file)
pickle.dump(mydict, Wr_file)
Wr_file.close()
R_file = open(r"C:UserslenovoDesktopbin1.bin", "rb")
i = pickle.load(R_file)
s = pickle.load(R_file)
l = pickle.load(R_file)
d = pickle.load(R_file)
print("myint = ", I)
print("mystring =", s)
print("mylist = ", l)
print("mydict = ", d)
R_file.close()

READING BINARY FILE THROUGH LOOP
Read objects one by one
through loop
import pickle
Wr_file = open(r"C:UserslenovoDesktoppython filesbin1.bin", "wb")
myint = 56
mylist = ["Python", "Java", "Oracle"]
mystring = "Binary File Operations"
mydict = { "ename": "John", "Desing": "Manager" }
pickle.dump(myint, Wr_file)
pickle.dump(mylist, Wr_file)
pickle.dump(mystring, Wr_file)
pickle.dump(mydict, Wr_file)
Wr_file.close()
with open(r"C:UserslenovoDesktopbin1.bin", "rb") as f:
while True:
try:
r=pickle.load(f)
print(r)
print("Next item")
except EOFError:
break
f.close()

INSERT/APPEND RECORD IN A BINARY FILE
Here we are creating
dictionary Object to
dump it in a binary file
import pickle
Empno = int(input('Enter Employee number:'))
Ename = input('Enter Employee Name:')
Sal = int(input('Enter Salary'))
#Creating the dictionary
dict1 = {'Empno':Empno,'Name':Ename,'Salary':Sal}
#Writing the Dictionary
f = open(r"C:UserslenovoDesktoppython filesEmp.dat",'ab')
pickle.dump(dict1,f)
f.close()
f = open(r"C:UserslenovoDesktoppython filesEmp.dat",'rb')
while True:
try:
dict1 = pickle.load(f)
print('Employee Num:',dict1['Empno'])
print('Employee Name:',dict1['Name'])
print('Employee Salary:',dict1['Salary'])
except EOFError:
break
f.close()

SEARCH RECORD IN A BINARY FILE
import pickle
Found = False
eno=int(input("Enter Employee no to be searched"))
while True:
try:
dict1 = pickle.load(f)
if dict1['Empno'] == eno:
print('Employee Num:',dict1['Empno'])
print('Employee Name:',dict1['Name'])
print('Salary',dict1['Salary'])
Found = True
except EOFError:
break
if Found == False:
print('No Records found')
f.close()

KVS RO AGRA
UPDATE RECORD OF A BINARY FILE
import pickle
rec_File = []
r=int(input("enter Employee no to be updated"))
m=int(input("enter new value for Salary"))
while True:
try:
onerec = pickle.load(f)
rec_File.append(onerec)
except EOFError:
break
f.close()
no_of_recs=len(rec_File)
for i in range (no_of_recs):
if rec_File[i]['Empno']==r:
rec_File[i]['Salary'] = m
f = open(r"C:UserslenovoDesktoppython filesEmp.dat",'wb')
for i in rec_File:
pickle.dump(i,f)
f.close()

KVS RO AGRAimport pickle
rec_File = []
e_req=int(input("enter Employee no to be deleted"))
while True:
try:
onerec = pickle.load(f)
rec_File.append(onerec)
except EOFError:
break
f.close()
f = open(r"C:UserslenovoDesktoppython filesEmp.dat",'wb')
for i in rec_File:
if i['Empno']==e_req:
continue
pickle.dump(i,f)
f.close()
DELETE RECORD OF A BINARY FILE

COMMA SEPARATED VALUE(CSV
Files)

KVS RO AGRA
CSV FILE
• CSV is a simple file format used to store tabular data, such as
• a spreadsheet or database.
• Files in the CSV format can be imported to and exported from
programs that store data in tables, such as Microsoft Excel or
OpenOffice Calc.
• CSV stands for "comma-separated values“.
• A comma-separated values file is a delimited text file that uses a
comma to separate values.
• Each line of the file is a data record. Each record consists of
one or more fields, separated by commas. The use of the
comma as a field separator is the source of the name for this file
format

KVS RO AGRA
• One line for each record
• Comma separated fields
• Space-characters adjacent to commas are ignored
• When data has a strict tabular structure
• To transfer large database between programs
• To import and export data to office applications, Qedoc modules
CSV File Characteristics
WHEN USE CSV?

KVS RO AGRA
• CSV is faster to handle
• CSV is smaller in size
• CSV is easy to generate
• CSV is human readable and easy to edit manually
• CSV is simple to implement and parse
• CSV is processed by almost all existing applications
• No standard way to represent binary data
• There is no distinction between text and numeric values
• Poor support of special characters and control characters
• CSV allows to move most basic data only. Complex configurations cannot be imported and
exported this way
• Problems with importing CSV into SQL (no distinction between NULL and quotes)
CSV Advantages
CSV Disadvantages

CSV file handling in Python
To perform read and write operation with
CSV file,
• we must importcsv module.
• open() function is used toopen file, and
return file object.

KVS RO AGRA
WRITING DATA IN CSV FILE
 import csv module
 Use open() to open CSV file by specifying
mode
“w” or “a”, it will return file object.
 “w” will overwrite previous content
 “a” will add content to the end of previous
content.
 Pass the file object to writer object with
delimiter.
 Then use writerow() to send data in CSV file

KVS RO AGRA
import csv
with open(r'C:UserslenovoDesktoppython filesnew.csv','w') as wr:
a=csv.writer(wr,delimiter=",")
a.writerow(["Roll no","Name","Marks"])
a.writerow(["1","Rahul","85"])
a.writerow(["2","Priya","80"])
wr.close()
Writing to CSV file

Reading from CSV file
• import csv module
• Use open() to open csv file, it will return file
object.
• Pass this file object to reader object.
• Perform operation you want

KVS RO AGRA
import csv
with open(r'C:UserslenovoDesktoppython filesnew.csv',‘r') as rr:
a=csv.reader(rr)
for i in a:
print(i)
wr.close()
Reading from CSV file
