Problem #1

  • Write a program called hw9a.py that outputs average length of the presidency of US presidents, categorized by party. Your program should get the information from a file called presidents.txt, whose contents is available here
  • The output of your program should look something like this:
Average length of presidency.
44 presidents
Democratic presidents: x.xx years
Republican presidents: x.xx years
Others: x.xx years
  • The number of presidents (44) should be the number found by your program in the text file. When I test your program, I may provide a presidents.txt file with fewer than 44. Or with no presidents at all! Be sure you test your program well!
  • Submit your program as follows:
rsubmit hw7 hw7a.py
