    You should show what you've tried. – Sayse Apr 21 '19 at 18:55

    `enumerate` is the cleanest way to do it. I can think of other ways, but enumerate is the simplest. – Valentino Apr 21 '19 at 18:58
  • Questions seeking debugging help ("why isn't this code working?") must include the desired behavior, a specific problem or error and the shortest code necessary to reproduce it in the question itself. Questions without a clear problem statement are not useful to other readers. See: [mcve] – Patrick Artner Apr 21 '19 at 19:00

a simple for loop over the file:

lineCounter=0
with open('C:/t.txt') as readObj:
    lines=readObj.readlines()
    for line in lines:
        line=line.rstrip('\n')
        lineCounter += 1
        print('{}-{}'.format(lineCounter,line))
