'read', i.e open the file for reading, as opposed to 'w' for writing. For more
options see the docs
for file() (a synonym for open) here:

Hi John,
You may want to look at:

If you're still unsure about what 'r' means,
MyText = open('The_text.txt','r').read()
In the above line could someone tell me what the 'r' stand for. Many thanks
