Files
You may already be familiar with the notion of files, which are named storage compartments on your computer that are managed by your operating system. The last major built-in object type that we’ll examine on our object types tour provides a way to access those files inside Python programs.
In short, the built-in open function creates a Python file object, which serves as a link to a file residing on your machine. After calling open, you can transfer strings of data to and from the associated external file by calling the returned file object’s methods.

Compared to the types you’ve seen so far, file objects are somewhat unusual. They’re not numbers, sequences, or mappings, and they don’t respond to expression operators; they export only methods for common file-processing tasks. Most file methods are concerned with performing input from and output to the external file associated with a file object, but other file methods allow us to seek to a new position in the file, flush output buffers, and so on. Table 9-2 summarizes common file operations.
Table 9-2. Common file operations
Operation
Interpretation
output = open(r'C:\spam', 'w')
Create output file ('w' means write)
input = open('data', 'r')
Create input file ('r' means read)
input = open('data')
Same as prior line ('r' is the default)
aString = input.read()
Read entire file into a single string
aString = input.read(N)
Read up to next N characters (or bytes) into a string
aString = input.readline()
Read next line (including \n newline) into a string
aList = input.readlines()
Read entire file into list of line strings (with \n)
output.write(aString)
Write a string of characters (or bytes) into file
output.writelines(aList)
Write all line strings in a list into file
output.close()
Manual close (done for you when file is collected)
output.flush()
Flush output buffer to disk without closing
anyFile.seek(N)
Change file position to offset N for next operation
for line in open('data'): use line
File iterators read line by line
open('f.txt', encoding='latin-1')
Python 3.0 Unicode text files (str strings)
open('f.bin', 'rb')
Python 3.0 binary bytes files (bytes strings)
