Files, Exceptions & Modules Clinic.
Eight real-code challenges: read and append files, parse CSV and JSON, recover from bad input, import standard-library helpers and generate a verified inventory report.
How to use this clinic: Each starter script sets up fictional data. Read the requirement, modify the Python, then Run and Check the result. The Python runtime creates temporary files within your browser sandbox only. Changes to its virtual files are not saved to your personal computer. For real filesystem practice, use your own Python install and a dedicated folder with fictional data.

Read and write temporary browser files, parse CSV and JSON, and handle errors. Nothing is saved to your actual computer.
Read a technician note from a file
A fictional device note has already been written to a temporary browser file. Read that file with with open(..., 'r', encoding='utf-8'), remove the final newline, store the exact text in note, and print 'AP-02: offline'. Do not manually assign the answer or access any real computer files.
AP-02: offlineTry solving it before asking for help. Hints never show a completed program.
