Question

Write a program that performs the following:
- Reads from the file "myfile.txt" using readlines()
- Prints out the contents of the file "myfile.txt", that was read into a list by readlines(). Note that this should not look like a list, so you will need to loop through the list created by readlines and print the text.
- Use the try/except method to create the file if it does not exist
- If the file does not exist, prompt the user in a loop to enter a line of text. End the loop when the user types "end"
- Save the text to a file called "myfile.txt" using write()
- Don't forget to close the file.

Answer 1

#when file not exist

#running second time

code:

def main():

#read file in try catch mode

try:

#open file in read mode

read_file = open("myfile.txt","r")

#read lines as list

lines = read_file.readlines()

#print each line content

for line in lines:

print(line)

#close the file

read_file.close()

except FileNotFoundError:

#if file not exist

#create a file in write mode

write_file = open("myfile.txt","w")

#ask user to enter the lines

while True:

line = input("Enter line : ")

#check if user enters end

if line.lower() == "end":

break

#write line into file with a new line

write_file.write(line+"\n")

#close the file

write_file.close()

main()
