how to read text file in python

file1.readline()

#reading a txt file using a context manager

#for reading and writing data in a text file with python
#First you must have a file Open or create a new file have it loaded in memory.
# Open function to open the file "MyFile1.txt" 
# (same directory) in append mode and

# for object name file1.
