Question

Finish this Code!

We want to open a file called "names.txt" and display all of the lines of the file as a list.

1. Open the file in "reading" mode
2. Use readlines to store the file into a list
3. Use list indexing to display the 3rd item in the list
4. This step is done for you! Close the file

When you are finished, the output should match Desired Output.

Notice: due to limitations with readine files in an online environment, the line breaks will display as \\\\n. Do not be alarmed!

# Open the File
fin =

# Use readlines to store
# the file in a list

# Use indexing to
# display the 3rd line

# Close the file
fin.close()

Desired output is
