Basic File Handling (Creating & Writing)
with open("my_file.txt","w") as file:
file.write("Hello,Python File Handling!")
print('File created and written successfully!')
File created and written successfully!
with open("my_file.txt","w") as file:
file.write("Hello, Python!\n")
file.write("This is a text file.\n")
file.write("We are learning file handling.\n")
print('File written successfully!')
File written successfully!
name=input("Enter Name:")
age=input("Enter Age:")
with open("user_data.txt.txt","w") as file:
file.write("Name:"+name+"\n")
file.write("Age:"+age+"\n")
print('File written successfully!')
Enter Name:isha
Enter Age:19
File written successfully!
Reading from a File
#Reading an Entire File
with open("my_file.txt","r") as file:
content=file.read()
print(content)
Hello, Python!
This is a text file.
We are learning file handling.
#Reading Line by Line
with open("my_file.txt","r") as file:
line1=file.readline()
line2=file.readline()
print(line1)
print(line2)
Hello, Python!
This is a text file.
#Reading First N Lines
with open("my_file.txt","r") as file:
lines=file.readlines()
print(lines)
['Hello, Python!\n', 'This is a text file.\n', 'We are learning file
handling.\n']
Modifying File Content
#Appending Content to a File
with open("my_file.txt","a") as file:
file.write("Appending new content to the file!")
print('Content appended successfully!')
Content appended successfully!
#Counting Words in a File
with open("my_file.txt","r") as file:
content=file.read()
words=content.split()
word_count=len(words)
print("Word Count:",word_count)
Word Count: 18
#Searching for a Word in a File
with open("my_file.txt","r") as file:
content=file.read()
search_word=input("Enter word to be search:")
if search_word in content:
print("Word found!")
else:
print("Word not found!")
Enter word to be search:python
Word not found!
Working with Multiple Files
try:
with open("my_file.txt", "r") as source_file, open("copy_file.txt",
"w") as destination_file:
for line in source_file:
destination_file.write(line)
print("File copied successfully!")
except FileNotFoundError:
print("Source file not found.")
except Exception as e:
print(f"An error occurred: {e}")
File copied successfully!
with open("file1.txt","w") as file:
file.write("Hello,Python File Handling!")
with open("file2.txt","w") as file:
file.write("Python from second file")
with open("file2.txt","r") as file:
file2content=file.read()
with open("file1.txt","r") as file:
file1content=file.read()
with open("merged_file.txt","w") as file:
file.write(file1content+"\n"+file2content)
print('File created and written successfully!')
File created and written successfully!
#Write a program that removes all blank lines from "my_file.txt" and
saves the updated content in "cleaned_file.txt".
with open("my_file.txt","r") as file:
lines=file.readlines()
with open("cleaned_file.txt","w") as file:
for line in lines:
if line.strip():
file.write(line)
Binary File Handling (Images & PDFs)
Copying an Image File
#Write a program that reads an image file ("photo.jpg") in binary mode
and creates a duplicate of it as "copy_photo.jpg".
with open("photo.jpg","rb") as file:
image_data=file.read()
with open("copy_photo.jpg","wb") as file:
file.write(image_data)
Reading a Binary File
#Write a program that opens "sample.pdf" in binary mode and prints the
first 50 bytes of its content.
with open("sample.pdf","rb") as file:
content=file.read(50)
print(content)
b'%PDF-1.5\r\n%\xb5\xb5\xb5\xb5\r\n1 0 obj\r\n<</Type/Catalog/Pages 2

Deleting & Exception Handling
#Write a Python script that checks if "delete_me.txt" exists. If it
does, delete the file and display "File deleted successfully.".
#If the file does not exist, display "File does not exist.".
import os
try:
if os.path.exists("delete_me.txt"):
os.remove("delete_me.txt")
print("File deleted successfully!")
else:
print("File does not exist.")
except Exception as e:
print
File does not exist.
