- Example code to help read in a file:
# open a text file
file = open("Constitution.txt", "r")
# read all lines in the file and save in the constitution string variable
constitutionStr = file.read()
# read all lines from the file and save them to a listlist
constitutionList = file.readlines()
# close the file
file.close()
print(constitutionStr) # What does it print? Comment this line out and uncomment the next line
#print(constitutionList)
- Example code to help write to a file:
# open a text file
file = open("output.txt", "w")
# read all lines in the file and save in the constitution string variable
file.write("Hello!\n")
file.write("world!")
# close the file
file.close()
