Question

PYTHON

The program needs to process the arrival and departure of each patient documented in the patient data file. While processing each patient, send the following output to an output file:

a.Use your two new functions to initially print out a "0".

b. As each patient arrives, print out the name of the patient & the time that they arrive at.

c. Update the billboard counter to indicate that the wait time has increased.

d. Print out the new billboard seven segment digit value using 7 lines of output.

e.Every time a patient checks out of the hospital, print out the name of the patient and the time that they are leaving.

f. Update the billboard counter to indicate that the wait time has decreased.

g. Print out the new billboard seven segment digit value using 7 lines of output.

h. Continue until all of the patients in the input data file have checked out.

Your program is going to be responsible for determining how many people are being helped by the hospital during the day.The fancy new billboard that the hospital has purchased has a single seven segment digit that can display the wait time that an arriving patient can expect. Each time a patient arrives at the hospital, this number needs to be incremented by one. Possible values are 0-9. You are going to have to create two functions in order to interface with the billboard.

The name of the data file to be used with this is "HW #4 patient data.txt"

You are going to have to read in each patient patient's record, break it into its individual components,and then create a Python list that contains the complete patient record j

the content of the text file is bellow

So I have already created the functions for the billboard I just Need help with turning the text file into a list to then make a patientCounter and organize the times of each patient

# Function for billboard numbers

def setDisplayNum(displayDigit) :
if displayDigit == 0:
displayNumDigit = [[1],[1,1],[0],[1,1],[1]]
if displayDigit == 1:
displayNumDigit = [[0],[0,1],[0],[0,1],[0]]
if displayDigit == 2:
displayNumDigit = [[1],[0,1],[1],[1,0],[1]]
if displayDigit == 3:
displayNumDigit = [[1],[0,1],[1],[0,1],[1]]
if displayDigit == 4:
displayNumDigit = [[0],[1,1],[1],[0,1],[0]]
if displayDigit == 5:
displayNumDigit = [[1],[1,0],[1],[0,1],[1]]
if displayDigit == 6:
displayNumDigit = [[1],[1,0],[1],[1,1],[1]]
if displayDigit == 7:
displayNumDigit = [[1],[0,1],[0],[0,1],[0]]
if displayDigit == 8:
displayNumDigit = [[1],[1,1],[1],[1,1],[1]]
if displayDigit == 9:
displayNumDigit = [[1],[1,1],[1],[0,1],[1]]
return(displayNumDigit)

# Function for actually displaying number on billboard

def displayDigit(digiParts):
for i in digiParts:
if (len(i)) == 1:
if(i[0]) == 1:
print(" ______ ", file = outFile)
if(i[0]) == 0 :
print(" ", file = outFile)
if (len(i)) == 2:
if (i[0]) == 0 and (i[1]) == 0:
print(" ", file = outFile)
print(" ", file = outFile)
if (i[0]) == 0 and (i[1]) == 1:
print(" |", file = outFile)
print(" |", file = outFile)
if (i[0]) == 1 and (i[1]) == 0:
print("| ", file = outFile)
print("| ", file = outFile)
if (i[0]) == 1 and (i[1]) == 1:
print("| |", file = outFile)
print("| |", file = outFile)

# Opening file with patient records and ouputfile

patientInfile = open("C:/Users/owner/Downloads/HW #4 patient data.txt","r")
outFile = open("output.txt","w")

Answer 1

Ans:

# The Program mentioned below is as per the requirements of what you have mentioned

# Below is the input given to the file

# the program below is what is to be required

patientInfile = open("C:/Users/owner/Downloads/HW #4 patient data.txt","r")# for reading the input file in read mode
lst = []# final list which stores the data of each patient in the form of another list of various fields mentioned
for line in patientInfile:# this loop reads each line in the patientInfile
temp = line.split(',')# this is to break the patient values at every ',' character
s = []# another list to store the intermediate result
for i in temp:
s.append(i.replace("'",""))# for replacing the "'" character
lst.append(s)
  
for i in lst:
print(i)
outFile = open("output.txt","w") # to open file output and write in the file
for i in lst:# writing the ouput for every element in the lst
outFile.write("patient name : "+str(i[1])+" "+str(i[0])+" , Arrival : "+str(i[-2])+" , Departure : "+str(i[-1]))snip
# add this in the main function after the two functions

# below is the output after writing it to an output file

# PLEASE DO LIKE AND UPVOTE IF THIS WAS HELPFUL

# THANK YOU SO MUCH IN ADVANCE!
