World Series Champions
If you have downloaded this book’s source code (the companion Web sire is available at www.pearsonhighered.com/gaddis), you will find a file named WorldSeriesWinners.txt. This file contains a chronological list of the winning teams in the World Series from 1903 through 2009. (The first line in the file is the name of the team that won in 1903, and the last line is the name of the team that won in 2009. Note that the World Series was not played in 1904 and 1994, so those years are skipped in the file.)

7. World Series Winners
In this chapter's source code folder (available on the Computer Science Portal at www.
pearsonhighered.com/gaddis), you will find a text file named WorldSeriesWinners.
txt. This file contains a chronological list of the World Series' winning teams from 1903
through 2009. The first line in the file is the name of the team that won in 1903, and the
last line is the name of the team that won in 2009. (Note the World Series was not played
in 1904 or 1994. There are entries in the file indicating this.)
Write a program that reads this file and creates a dictionary in which the keys are the names
of the teams, and each key's associated value is the number of times the team has won the
World Series. The program should also create a dictionary in which the keys are the years,
and each key's associated value is the name of the team that won that year.
The program should prompt the user for a year in the range of 1903 through 2009. It
should then display the name of the…

One common physical activity that most of these devices track is the number of steps you take each day. The steps.txt file contains the number of steps a person has taken each day for a year. There are 365 lines in the file, and each line contains the number of steps taken during a day. (The first line is the number of steps taken on January 1st, the second line is the number of steps taken on January 2nd, and so forth.)

If the row/column is valid or not for the standard chessboard For example, if we pass in “d” for the column and 4 for the row, your function that determines color should return the string: “BLACK”. If we pass in "k" for the column to your function that validates columns, that function should return the boolean False.

- PHONE DIRECTORYDescription: Create a phonebook directory that will store the contact numbers of N persons. Your program should allow the user to add, view, delete, and update the contacts in the phonebook. Note that one person can have multiple contact numbers. The program will stop when the user command is ‘X’. Program command and entry should not be case-sensitive. That means commands ‘I’ or ‘i’ and the name “Jacky” or “JACKY” are the same. Each contact number can be 7 digits or 11 digits only. The user should input a string containing the command, name, and contact number(s) (Limit the contact number of each person to three). This string should be broken down into fields in order to separate the different values and store them in their appropriate variables. Use linked list in the implementation.

There are a variety of ways that game developers store their level layouts. One simple method is to associate level elements with certain symbols, and then storing them in a 2D grid inside a text file. We will use our knowledge of 2D arrays to create a very simple Level Map Creator tool. The program should prompt the user to enter a width and height for the level. Then it should initialize a 2D array and fill every element with the "*" symbol. Afterwards, the user should be given the following options via a menu: 1. Clear Level Re-initialize the 2D array and fill every element with the "*" symbol. 2. Add Platform Prompt the user to enter a starting point and length for the horizontal platform. Replace those elements in the 2D array with the "=" symbol. If the length is longer than the number of columns (or out of bounds), notify the user that this is not possible. 3.
