🐍 At times we need a file to run a code. Python allows you to treat a text/string like a file for that purpose. It is not really a file, but it lets you treat it that way. You need a module called StringIO for it. Use Jupyter Notebooks to run the following code. StringIO Let's begin by importing StringIO import io Next, we create a string and store it in a variable. message = 'This is just a normal string.' Let's apply StringIO magic to it and make it look like a file. f = io.StringIO(message) Now, we can do all file operations on it. Like read f.read() Output: 'This is just a normal string.' Like Write f.write(' Second line written to file like object') Output: 40 Like moving cursor to a location in the file f.seek(0) Output: 0 Like read again f.read() Output: 'This is just a normal string. Second line written to file like object' Like closing the file f.close() After closing 'f' cannot carry out the file functions.
