How do I print the content of a .txt file in Python?

by

Opening a file in python for reading is easy:

f = open('example.txt', 'r')

To get everything in the file, just use read()

file_contents = f.read()

And to print the contents, just do:

print (file_contents)

Don’t forget to close the file when you’re done.

f.close()
