* Outline
- Opening and reading contents of a file
- Closing open files
- Reading all the contents of the file at once
- Reading files line by line
* Question 1
Split the variable into a list, =pend_list=, of the lines in the
file. Hint, use the tab command to see what methods the string
variable has.
* Solution 1
#+begin_src python
In []: pend_list = pend.splitlines()
In []: pend_list
#+end_src
* Question 2
Re-open the file =pendulum.txt= with =f= as the file object.
* Solution 2
#+begin_src python
In []: f = open('/home/fossee/pendulum.txt')
#+end_src
* Summary
- Opening a file using =open= function
- Reading all the contents of the file at once using =read()= method
- Closing open files using the =close= method
- Reading files line by line by iterating using a =for= loop
* Thank you!
