Hi, What is the shortest and the easiest way to read a file

Hi, what type of file are you intending to read, please?

3

For text files, Iā€™d recommend using pathlib

import pathlib
path = pathlib.Path("file.txt")
text = path.read_text()
4

Please recommend path.read_text(encoding="utf-8") for users.
