Create a program that reads a list of states from an input file, puts them in order, and displays the sorted list to the user. Description
Prompt the user for the name of the text file, read in a list of states from the file, and output those states in alphabetical order.
Provided input files
A single input file named states. txt is provided that lists states of the United States - one state per row. Some states have lowercase letters, where some begin with uppercase letters. As a reminder, lowercase letters come after uppercase letters alphabetically. The states are in a random order. The file has the following format:
Michigan
california
New Mexico
Texas
nevada
...
Your program will sort the states in the file and display to the user (not a file) an alphabetized list of all the states, with one state per line. For example,
Alabama
Alaska
Arizona
California
...
Notice that you do not see arkansas in the above sample. In the provided text file, arkansas is spelled with a lowercase "a". Lowercase letters come after uppercase letters alphabetically.
Objectives
Remember your incremental development strategy. Start with the pseudocode:
Prompt the user for a text file
Open the file.
Create a list where each element in the list is one of the states read from the file. Do not change the text that is read from the file.
Print to the user (not to a file) an alphabetized list of all the states, with one state per line.
Implement the pseudocode incrementally. Consider the following phases:
Open the file and put the contents in a list. Display the list to verify populating the list was successful.
Sort the list. Display the sorted list to verify sorting was successful.
Display the sorted list, one state per line.
Remove all the extra print statements and test the program.
Hint: You may want to look up the helpful list method sort() and / or built in function sorted in the official Python docs
