“OSError: [Errno 22] Invalid argument” when read()ing a huge file

Question

I\'m trying to write a small script that prints the checksum of a file (using some code from https://gist.github.com/Zireael-N/ed36997fd1a967d78cb2):

import

Wow this can be much simpler. Just read the file line by line:

with open('big-file.txt') as f:
  for i in f:
    print(i)
