I am trying to create a program that will read from a file on my computer. The file consists of simply door numbers from 1-150 within a bracket.
The error returns at line 6. print(file.read())
#opening_a_file.py
file = "This PC/C:/Python Programming/Doors.txt","r"
print("read function: ")
print(file.read())
print()
file.seek(0)
I tried renaming the file absolute path. I edited line 3 as well to read as:
file = open("This PC/c:/Python Programming/Doors.txt","r")
but that did not work.
This is because the variable file is a tuple. That is what happens when you define it in tuple format: var = value1, value2
So, in your case, you want a file object, so you need to do this:
file = open("C:/Python Programming/Doors.txt","r")
For the sake of the answer, here is the full code sum-up:
file = open("C:/Python Programming/Doors.txt","r")
print("read function: ")
print(file.read())
print()
file.seek(0)
