The with statement is used for working with files in a more Pythonic way. It ensures that the file is properly closed after its suite finishes, even if an exception is raised. This eliminates the need to explicitly call file.close().

with open("filename", "mode") as file:
# Perform file operationsExample:
# Using 'with' to read a file
with open("example.txt", "r") as file:
content = file.read()
print(content)
# Using 'with' to write to a file
with open("example.txt", "w") as file:
file.write("Hello, World!")Advantages of with:
- Automatically handles file closing.
- Cleaner and more readable code.
- Ensures resources are released properly.
