Lesson 15.3 Reading Line from File

Description

In this lesson, students learn how to use the readline() method to read lines from a file.


Objective

Students will be able to:

  • Understand the purpose and usage of the readline() method in Python for reading lines from a file.
  • Demonstrate how to open a file and use readline() to read a single line at a time.
  • Implement a loop to read and process multiple lines from a file using readline().
  • Handle end-of-file (EOF) situations by checking for an empty string returned by readline().
  • Adapt the readline() method to solve practical problems and perform operations on each line read from a file.
