Another post starts with you beautiful people! Today we will explore various file import options in Python which I learned from a great learning site- DataCamp . In order to import data into Python, we should first have an idea of what files are in our working directory. We will learn step by step examples as given below- Importing entire text files- In this exercise, we'll be working with the file mobydick.txt [ download here ] It is a text file that contains the opening sentences of Moby Dick, one of the great American novels!
