If you Python file and text files are in different directories, you may have to also use the relative or absolute path to open the file. Since my Python file and text file are both in &#8220;Downloads&#8221; I do not have to do that in this scenario. <\/p>\n<p>Here is the code below to read in a text file: <\/p>\n<pre><code>with open('New_Sample.txt') as f_object:\n      for line in f_object:\n           print(line.rstrip())\n<\/code><\/pre>\n<p>And here is the output:<\/p>\n<pre><code>Python sample!\nAnother line!\n<\/code><\/pre>\n<p>You simply use the open method again and you can print the files in the .txt file line for line in a loop.
