Excellent! You’re a pro.

Finally, we want to know how to read from our output.txt file. As you might expect, we do this with the read() function, like so:

print my_file.read()

Instructions

1.

Declare a variable, my_file, and set it equal to the file object returned by calling open() with both "output.txt" and "r".

Next, print the result of using .read() on my_file, like the example above.

Make sure to .close() your file when you’re done with it! All kinds of doom will happen if you don’t.
