32 Vedansh is a Python programmer working in a school. For the Annual Sports Event, he has 4
created a csv file named Result.csv, to store the results of students in different sports events.
The structure of Result.csv is : [St_Id, St_Name, Game_Name, Result]
Where St_Id is Student ID (integer) ST_name is Student Name (string) Game_Name is name of
game in which student is participating(string) Result is result of the game whose value can be either
'Won', 'Lost' or 'Tie'
For efficiently maintaining data of the event,
Vedansh wants to write the following user defined functions
