Python - File usage

(1/1)

KimotoHaikye:
So,
I'm quite good with python already,
But I need to know how to use pythons file usage thing, (Where you bring in the file normally using)
file = open('FILENNAME.txt, 'r'')
Yeah, that ^
And my problem is,
How do I use two files one holding usernames and the next holding passwords, and use them so I can successfully get prompt to log-in when the right username and the right password are entered.
If you need any more info about it just ask,
Also if you need help with python, just PM.

Starting notice: I'm terrible at all things detail/logistics related -- including Python (which is why I haven't gotten past the first two pages of the tutorial; I zone out a lot due to a pathetic work ethic). Hooowwweever, I'm always up for trying my hand at theory. In this case, would it work to utilize some sort of argument based on *If X Then Y*? If username is entered and rings true, move on to password entering -- if password is entered and rings true in accordance to the username, then et cetera...?

At least, that's the simplest thing I can think of...probably because I'm a simpleton to start. If you --likely-- already tried that, apologies for wasting your time, twas only trying to help (Aka: I am newb, plz don't bash me).
