TOPIC: DATA FILE HANDLING (PRACTICAL NOTES)
Practical: 1
Create a file with text given below in Notepad software to
create .txt File:
Welcome in Python Programming Language.
We are Discussing Data File Handling in Python.
I Hope You understand this Chapter.
Do practical as discussed in class.
Write this code by opening a file new in Python:

dfh=open("demo.txt",'r')
data=dfh.read()
print(data)
dfh.close()
Reading from a File:

1. Read()
2. Read(n)
3. Readline()
4. Readlines()
Practical: 2
f=open("file.txt",'r')
print(f.read(2))
#print(f.readlines())
print(f.read(3))
#print("Rest of Data")
#print(f.read())

Writing to file:
1. Write(string)
2. Writelines(sequence of lines)
f=open("file.txt",'w')
#print(f.read(2))
#print(f.readlines())
#print(f.read(3))
#print("Rest of Data")
#print(f.read())
f.write("Hope u understand \n")
#print("Data written to the file successfully")
a=f.read()
print(a)
f.close()
Note: In the program, data present in the file shall be

overridden (or overwritten) every time we run this program
In order to avoid this situation we should add new text to
already-existing text using “a” append mode.
x=100
f.write("Hello\n")
f.write(str(x))
f.close()
