🔒 Question with reading

[raw sandal]

why is ap and apple next to each other without empty space between them(in output)

def FirstExample():
object = input("What kind of object? ")
with open("5.1.txt","a") as f:
f.write(f"{object}\n") # \n so that it writes every new line

with open("5.1.txt", "r") as f:
    print(f.read()) # You can read a file only in "r" mode, you can't do that in "a" for example
    f.seek(0)
    print(f.read(10))
    f.seek(0)
    print(f.readline(2))# Reads up to 2 characters from the current line
    f.seek(0)
    print(f.readline())
    f.seek(0)
    for _ in range(3):
        print(f.readline(), end="")

what "ap" and "apple"?

[raw sandal]

in output when you run code

[hazy bison]

well that would depend on the input, right?

I have no way of knowing what's in that file

[raw sandal]

oh yeah mb let me put in image

[hazy bison]

ok so what in that output is unexpected?

and what is the actual content of the file like?

[raw sandal]

the content is i just write one word everytime i run it so its all of the above up to xyn

[hazy bison]

but the code reads from the beginning several times

so seeing what's actually in the file might help

[hazy bison]

ok, and now tell me what in the output you disagree with

[raw sandal]

why is there no empty space between ap and apple

like between ap,apple and next 3 words

[hazy bison]

which part of the code outputs that?

[raw sandal]

this i think

print(f.readline(2))# Reads up to 2 characters from the current line
f.seek(0)
print(f.readline())

[hazy bison]

you think? why not just comment out everything else and be sure?

[raw sandal]

what to cmment out

[hazy bison]

well all the other sections that read from the file and print stuff?
