Points to ponder
File object provides the set of access methods to make our lives happy. We would check how to use read() and write() methods to read / write files.
The write()-Method
The write()-method writes any string to an open file. It is important to note that Python-strings can binary data and not just text.
The write()-method does not add newline character ('\n') to the end of string.
Syntax >>>fileObject.write(string)
The passed parameter is the content to be written into opened file.
Example
The above method create foo.txt file / would write given content in that file and finally, it would close that file. If you open this file, it will have the following content.
Python is a good language.
Yeah its great!!
The read()-Method
The read()-method reads a string from an open file.
Syntax >>>>fileObject.read([count])
The passed parameter is number of bytes to be read from opened file. This method starts reading from beginning of file and if count is missing.
Example
Now take a file foo.txt, which we created above.
Output:
Read String is:python is
Don't miss out!
