Facing Problem while opening a file through command prompt

[vlearner]

Hi Everyone,

Here is the code that I have written for reading a file through command prompt.

from sys import argv script, filename = argv txt = open(filename) print(f"Here's your file {filename}:") print(txt.read()) print("Type the filename again:") file_again = input("> ") txt_again = open(file_again) print(txt_again.read())

but while executing this program I am facing this error

Error:
 txt = open(file.txt) AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'txt'

please guide me through this problem

When I try this it works fine.
Note: every line in your script (except first) is indented 1 space.
This might be the reason you are having problems.

Also, since argv is a list, you can use filename = argv[1]
to get the second argument.

The error is being generated by code other than what you uploaded.txt = open(file.txt)

I tried this way but it is showing list index out of range.

# fs.py from sys import argv script, filename = argv txt = open(filename) print(f"Here's your file {filename}:") print(txt.read()) print("Type the filename again:") file_again = input("> ") txt_again = open(file_again) print(txt_again.read())

From command line i have two files in bar folder your code fs.py and test.txt.

Output:
C:\code\bar λ ls fs.py test.txt C:\code\bar λ fs.py test.txt Here's your file test.txt: hello world Type the filename again: > test.txt hello world

As you see the code is working.
