Python - File Handling Fundamentals

Awith open('greet.txt', 'w') as file: file.write('Hello')

Bwith open('greet.txt', 'a') as file: file.read('Hello')

Copen('greet.txt', 'w').read('Hello')

Dfile = open('greet.txt', 'r'); file.write('Hello'); file.close()

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Identify correct file mode and method
To write data, use 'w' mode and the write() method inside a with block for safety.
Step 2: Check each option
file = open('greet.txt', 'r'); file.write('Hello'); file.close() uses 'r' mode which is read-only, so write() will fail. open('greet.txt', 'w').read('Hello') uses read() instead of write(). with open('greet.txt', 'a') as file: file.read('Hello') uses read() and 'a' mode but tries to read data, which is incorrect. with open('greet.txt', 'w') as file: file.write('Hello') correctly uses 'w' mode and write() inside a with block.
Final Answer:
with open('greet.txt', 'w') as file: file.write('Hello') -> Option A
Quick Check:
Use with + 'w' + write() to save text [OK]

Quick Trick: Use with open(filename, 'w') and write() to save text [OK]
