How to skip the "\n" in the output while using the readlines() method?

I want to read a notepad file by using the readlines() method.

f = open('/home/user/Desktop/my_file', 'r')
print(f.readlines())

The output is: ['Hello!\n', 'Welcome to Barbara restaurant. \n', 'Here is the menu. \n']

As you see the newlines will be mentioned in the output, too. What should I do? Note that I want to use the readlines() method.

P.S! My operating system is Linux Ubuntu and here's the link to my file.

I want to get the output below:

Hello!
Welcome to Barbara restaurant.
Here is the menu.
Solution

  • Update (Since you need the readlines() method)

    f = open('/home/user/Desktop/my_file', 'r')
for line in f.readlines():
    print(line, end='')

    Output

    Hello!
Welcome to Barbara restaurant.
Here is the menu.

    Original

    You can read then split each line

    f = open('/home/user/Desktop/my_file', 'r')
print(f.read().splitlines())

    Output

    ['Hello!', 'Welcome to Barbara restaurant. ', 'Here is the menu. ']
