In what directory should files be stored for their opening and further reading through open, read, etc.?

Question

Python

The text file that I want to read in Python is stored in the same directory as the program in which I want to open and read the same text file, but when I run the program, I get the error No such file or directory: 'text.txt'

Answer 1

At any. You are most likely running from a different directory.

import os
file_path = os.path.join(os.getcwd(), 'text.txt')
f = open(file_path)
