The data is in the form of a list which subsequently contains dictionaries - code snippet for saving and loading. The idea for PyStudentManager was inspired by Bo Milanovich in his Pluralsight course. Note: I made this a long while ago when I was new to programming (in general, but more specifically in Python) which is why the code may cause you…
