Question

Which method out of the following will allow the read operation from a Binary file in a Python program?

A.

read

B.

input

C.

accept

D.

load

Correct option is A


The read() method is used to read content from a file, including binary files, in Python. When opening a binary file in binary mode (e.g., 'rb'), the read() method can be used to read the file's contents as bytes.
Important Key Points:
1. read(): This method reads the entire content of the file when no argument is passed. In binary mode ('rb'), it returns the content as a byte object.
· Example:
· with open('file.bin', 'rb') as file:
· data = file.read()
· This will read the entire content of the binary file into the variable data.
2. input(): This is used to take user input from the command line, not for reading file contents.
3. accept(): This is not a standard method in Python for file operations. It is not used to read files.
4. load(): This is not a standard method for reading binary files in Python. It is typically used in libraries like json or pickle for loading data into memory, but not for direct file reading.
Knowledge Booster:
· Option (b): input() is used for reading input from the user, not for reading from a file.
· Option (c): accept() is not a valid method in Python for reading file data.
· Option (d): load() is not used for reading binary files. It's often used in the context of libraries like pickle for deserializing objects, but not for reading file contents directly.
