Reading a file line by line into elements of an array in Python [duplicate]

Answer 1

testsite_array = []
with open('topsites.txt') as my_file:
    for line in my_file:
        testsite_array.append(line)

This is possible because Python allows you to iterate over the file directly.

Alternatively, the more straightforward method, using f.readlines():

with open('topsites.txt') as my_file:
    testsite_array = my_file.readlines()
