open() function python default directory

Question

I\'m new and I have no idea where the default directory for the open() function is.

For example open(\'whereisthisdirectory.txt\',\'r\')

Answer 1

First, you must import:

import os

Then to print the current working directory:

os.getcwd()

If you want to change the current working directory:

os.chdir('your_complete_required_path')
