How to get python to read my file correctly?
#1


I am required to read the file attached titled game2.txt below using python,
but my output is a blank line, which is not what the file includes
How do I get python to read and print my file correctly ??

here is what I have done:
game=open("game2.txt", "r")
yay=game.read()
print(yay)
the output is just a blank line
What do I do to get python to print the file?


file:///C:/Users/Candy/Downloads/game2.txt
^^this is the attached game2.txt file
