File Processing

  • You can read an existing file with Python:
with open("file.txt") as file:
    content = file.read()
  • You can create a new file with Python and write some text on it:
with open("file.txt", "w") as file:
    content = file.write("Sample text")
  • You can append text to an existing file without overwriting it:
with open("file.txt", "a") as file:
    content = file.write("More sample text")
  • You can both append and read a file with:
with open("file.txt", "a+") as file:
    content = file.write("Even more sample text")
    file.seek(0)
    content = file.read()
