Python Tutorial: File Objects - Reading and Writing to Files

[@revinar5838]

No gimmicky loud background music or talking like he's some badass hacker...just clearly explained lessons that are easy to understand. Awesome work!

Maximum efficiency and Ultimate mastery of teaching has been shown in this video! You present your tutorials like a rabbi who read the scripture his whole life! Magnificent!

[@PaulGrahamJR]

Thank You Corey! You are a talented and gifted Tutor. I have watched over 50 python tutorials and yours are the best example of what I have found on KZbin.

[@Laevatei1nn]

on 23:38, how does the last line of the while loop prevents infinite loop?

[@dmg-s]

@@Laevatei1nn Once u read 100 elements, curser will move to 101. If we just read once outside the loop where u read only once and length does not decrease and loop run infinitely. if you read inside a loop, curser keeps moving after every loop and once if it finds no content to read u will get zero length data, so the loop breaks.

You are even better than the teachers in udemy . They don't know about being fluent.

[@HuzaifaMuhammadSIddique]

*Summary of the Video:* *file.open("path", "mode")* --> opens the file in respective mode. *Modes* *'r'* --> for read file contents. *'w'* --> for writing to file. *'a'* --> for eppending file contents. *'r+'* --> for reading and writing *'b'* --> to open file in binary mode (for reading images) *Note:* We can use different modes together like 'rb' can be used for reading a binary file. *file.close()* --> closes a file. *file.mode* --> returns the mode the file was opened in. *file.name* --> returns the name of the file as a string. For effiency we use context managers. The automatically close the file once we are out of the context manager the file was opened in. We can open a file using a context manager and assign the result to a variable. We can use this variable inside the context manager. *Reading from files* *file.read([size])* --> This method typically reads the entire content of the file. But if provided with a size (which is an optional argument), it can read 'size' number of characters. If used repeatedly, it always continues from the next character to the last character it read. *file.readlines()* --> returns a list of all of the lines of the file. (adds to represent start of next line) *file.readline()* --> Reads a single line from the file. If called repeatedly, it can read all of the lines one by one. *Note:* A file is treated as an iterable in python. This simply means that we can iterate over the lines of the file using a for loop (like we would loop over the elements of a list). We can also use a while loop to iterate over the contents of a file. We do this by specifing the number of characters we want to read at each iteration. Then we repeatedly used file.read() method to read the characters until there is nothing left to read. _size = 10_ _fileContents = file.read(size)_ _while len(fileContents) > 0:_ # while the length of what we have read is not 0, continue reading _print(fileContents, end=''')_ _fileContents = file.read(size)_ The *tell()* and *seek()* methods. Just like arrays, files are also zero-indexed. This means that the first element has a index of 0, second element has an index of 1 and so on. Python uses a pointer to keep track of where it should be reading from and writing to the files. In the start this point is at 0. As we read from the file, this pointer moves. For example, if we read 10 characters, this means that the pointer is not at index 10; it is going to read the 11th character next. It read from the 1st till the 10th characters (10th inclusive). Similiar mechanism is used for writing to files. *file.tell()* --> returns the position of where the pointer is. *file.seek(new_position)* --> sets the pointer to the specified position. *Writing to Files* The file should be opened in the 'write' mode. (mode = 'w'). *file.write(content)* --> writes the contents to the file. *Note:* trying to write to a file that does not exist will first create the file and then perform the writing operation. You can use nested (one in another) context managers to simultaneously read from a file and write to another file. Here is the code: _with open("readFilePath", 'r') as readFile:_ _with open("writeFilePath", 'w') as writeFile:_ _for line in readFile: _writeFile.write(line) You can also do: _with open("readFilePath", 'r') as readFile:_ _with open("writeFilePath", 'w') as writeFile:_ _writeFile.write(readFile.read())_ I hope this helps!

[@HarmanHundal01]

My Notes for this video. You can comment out all of it and uncomment and run one function at a time to revise what Corey has taught us: # While opening a file we can specify whether we are opening the file for 'reading', 'writing', 'reading & writing' or 'appending' # If we don't specify anything, it defaults to 'reading' # f = open('text.txt', 'w') # Opens a file for writing # f = open('text.txt', 'r+') # Opens a file for reading & writing # f = open('text.txt', 'a') # Opens a file for appending # Opens a file for reading f = open('C:/#Personal/Coding Projects/Proj1/Py edn/text.txt', 'r') print(f.name) # Returns the name of the open file print(f.closed) # Returns whether the file associated with the variable is closed print(f.mode) # Returns the mode in which it was opened i.e. 'r', 'w', 'r+', 'a' # All files opened using an open() command need to be closed explicitly after their use is complete.

Ideas for future tutorials: -Much more on classes, including composition, polymorphism, when to use classes vs other data structures, etc. -Enums and when to use them (introduced recently in Python) -Examples of when to choose different data structures and how to implement each. - Oauth and working with APIs through Python -PDB / debugging -Testing web apps -Selenium and Python -Beautiful Soup -Pytest -Pylint -TDD -Encapsulation / structuring code in python effectively -Advanced namespaces / modules / packages -Flask (advanced or in-depth, eg explaining the app context and how working with Flask blueprints is different from the usual modules and if ‘__name__’ == ‘__main__’ - Intermediate/ Advanced object oriented programming - Refactoring and code smells - Functional programming - Advanced Sublime Text - Workflow, eg syncing dev environments across different platforms, version control for dotfiles, etc. - Productivity tips - Design patterns - Medium/low-level networking and web programming with Python (understanding HTML headers, session objects / cookies, HTTP protocol, servers, AJAX and REST APIs, etc. - Setting up a personal web server, mail server, file server, owncloud, etc. - Executing JavaScript with Python - Setting up a LAN / basic home networking - Scripting and automation tips/ideas/anything - MongoAlchemy and/or Pymongo and/or SQLAlchemy - Building a web app with Python/Flask backend and JavaScript/Angular frontend - Advanced regular expressions (maybe covered in your newest video)-e.g., escaping regex strings - String templating, text replacement, etc. - Collections module - Modules that are useful or should be in the standard library but are not - Advanced / in-depth primitive operations, e.g. string and dict methods.

Great tuts. I assume this is for python 3? I tried to do this in 2.7 and it doesn't seem to like the syntax with the "end". I guess I should start transition to 3.

Sorry for the late reply. Yes, this is Python 3. It took me a long time to transition over too, but since it is the recommended version now it is a good idea to switch over if possible.

How do I write and read a file simultaneously .I tried to do but after every read operation its simultaneously writing the same content the no of times i run the prog which is not what i want .Please help !! Thank you !

[@Femshot]

Well. Hope this isn't too late 😅 But you need to control the file pointer on the open file object, when you open a file in r+ or w+ mode the file pointer starts from the top of the file (0) so you'll need to get it to the end of the file before writing new data

for line in f: how does it take in one line like we havent specified anything line why doesnt line iterate through each character . how does it iterate through each line can someone please help me? :)

[@vaibhavdumaga7229]

yes same doubt buddy!!!!!

[@VictorOlet]

@@vaibhavdumaga7229 Same issue here. But I think it is in-built and so the for-loop function automatically knows. From documentation, it says that some file objects are iterable, meaning when used in a loop, it automatically "knows" how to go to the next item in the file object.Don't fully understand, but it seems to be in built so it's automatic. See for yourself here under iterable: docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-iterable
