File Handling
Noun · Development
Definitions
The set of operations for creating, reading, writing, and closing files. Proper file handling includes using context managers or RAII to ensure files are closed even when exceptions occur, avoiding resource leaks.
In plain English: Reading from and writing to files on disk — the key rule is always close the file when you're done, or bad things happen.
Example: "Always use 'with open()' in Python for file handling — it guarantees the file gets closed even if your code throws."
