SCHEME AND SOLUTION

INSTRUCTIONS TO PAPER SETTER FOR THE PREPARATION OF SCHEME AND SOLUTION

1. The objective of preparation of scheme and solution is to ensure a uniform valuation among
the evaluators.
2. The solution should indicate the expected important points/ steps / graphs / drawings /
circuits / figures / calculations/ tables and final numerical answers along with the marks
allocation for each of these.
3. Lengthy attachments from books/textbooks/notes etc. shall NOT BE ACCEPTED as scheme &
solution.
4. Please bear in mind that the students have to complete answering the entire question paper in
the given answer booklet within 3hrs (no additional answer sheet will be provided)
5. Marks should be allocated for step-wise development of concepts / answers / figures /
circuits / graph / exactness / accuracy in numerical values / units / calculations.
6. Split marks to be given must be indicated.
7. A scheme & solution does not mean the splitting of final marks into its component parts
(example 2 + 2 + 4 + 2). It has to clearly show the expected answers / response for each
component. A scheme and solution which merely shows the component marks is liable to be
rejected.
8. The figures / drawings / circuit diagrams that are part of answers shall also be given in solution
to ensure that the same is being uniformly evaluated by all the examiners.
9. Answers shall not be in the form of references / citations where authors name / title of the
book / chapter numbers / page numbers / paragraphs / figures etc. are provided.

 Describe the different modes of file operations in python programming.

r (Read Mode): This mode opens a file for reading purposes. The file must already
6.B
exist, and any attempt to write to the file will result in an error.
5M
w (Write Mode): This mode opens a file for writing purposes. If the file exists, it will
be truncated (emptied) before writing begins. If the file doesn't exist, it will be
created.

a (Append Mode): This mode opens a file for appending data to the end of the file.
The file must already exist, and any writing will add new content without
overwriting existing data.

r+ (Read and Write Mode): This mode allows both reading and writing to the file.
The file must already exist.

w+ (Write and Read Mode): This mode allows both writing and reading to the file. If
the file exists, it will be truncated (emptied) before writing begins. If the file doesn't
exist, it will be created.

a+ (Append and Read Mode): This mode allows both appending and reading to the
file. The file must already exist.
