Try writing what you want to do in structured English first
Open the file input.txt
For each line in input.txt :
copy the named file from source to destination
Close the file input.txt
Now can you write that ion Python? (You may want to check
the shutil module for copying the files)
If you can';t get it to work send us your code and any error
messages you get.
You will find more detailed info in the Using the OS
topic of my tutor.
