Can we store value in file if we open file in read mode?

[prasanthbab1234]

Using the open() function, open the test.txt file in reading mode and store it in the variable called file_2

Is this possible to create variable when we open a file in read mode?

Yes you can always create variables.

Yes you can always create variables.

Hi Could you please explain the syntax how to do it ? as I tried with below syntax but no successes

file = open('test.txt', 'r')
file.write('file_2')

[ibreeden]

Please read 7.2. Reading and Writing Files and open(). You opened the file for reading, so you cannot write to it. If you want to write to a file you must open it for writing ("w") or appending ("a") or read-write ("+").

file = open('test.txt', 'w')
file.write('file_2')
