• Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
• Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

where do you call the function?

[wise panther]

i dont but if i did, wouldnt i need to supply the file to python tutor?

[heavy spade]

yes

[wise panther]

how would i give it the file

if its an online browser

[heavy spade]

but that's why you're only seeing those steps currently

[heavy spade]

I'm not sure if you can

[wise panther]

so python tutor just doesnt work for anything involving reading/writing/opening files

[heavy spade]

for line in file roughly behaves the same as iterating through a list though

so you could just swap a list and see the same steps roughly

[gritty elm]

is there a filename given?

[wise panther]

or should i just circumvent the file and just make a list and have it treat the list as the file

[heavy spade]

if you have any specific questions about file reading, feel free to ask them here

[wise panther]

i think i got it, ty

[heavy spade]

Np! If that's all for now, you can close this thread with !close

[wise panther]

!close
