Answer 1

#create a function readAccounts with two arguments, accounts and fileName
def readAccounts(accounts,fileName):
#declare a variable pathlibPath to hold the path of the file
  pathlibPath = pathlib.Path(fileName)
#check if the file exists
  if pathlibPath.exists():
    #open the file
    with open(fileName,'r+') as file:


    #load the content of the file to a variable accountData
      accountData = json.load(file)




      for account in accountData:




        accountFromFile=Account()


        #set information 
        accountFromFile.setAccountInformation(account['username'],account['password'],account['name'],account['suname'],account['birthDate'],account['listFriends'])


        #append the information accountFromFile to accounts
        accounts.append(accountFromFile)




         




        




     




   


#call the main function
main()
