I am wondering for meaning to split the line by spaces into three values and then print these string objects as they are into the line. Just print the line
Need help with writing to and reading from files?

The following code:
#Part 2 f = open("test.txt", "w") your_start_age = 62 her_start_age = 61 start_year = 2017 for y in range(81): f.write('{}{}{}\n'.format(start_year, your_start_age, her_start_age)) your_start_age += 1 her_start_age += 1 start_year += 1 f.close() #Part 3 with open("test.txt", "r") as opened_file: for line in opened_file: start_year, your_start_age, her_start_age = line.split() print(start_year, your_start_age, her_start_age)gives me this error for "...... =.split() " line sorry for all my ignorance
Your
f.write('{}{}{}\n'.format(start_year, your_start_age, her_start_age))has not spaces between each {} so there is nothing to split on further down the code change it to f.write('{} {} {}\n'.format(startyear, yourstartage, herstartage))as shown in earlier code. Edit: Take this in mind that although I have shown how to get each value back into the variables, the values are still strings and not numbers, int or float could be used to convert them back depending on what type of numbers are needed.
