How to read a text file into a string variable and strip newlines?

Question

I use the following code segment to read a file in python:

with open (\"data.txt\", \"r\") as myfile:
    data=myfile.readlines()

Input fil

Answer 1

Try the following:

with open('data.txt', 'r') as myfile:
    data = myfile.read()

    sentences = data.split('\\n')
    for sentence in sentences:
        print(sentence)

Caution: It does not remove the \n. It is just for viewing the text as if there were no \n
