FileNotFoundError : [Errno 2] No such file or directory

Question

I got this error when I tried to open the csv file where I made the changes I wanted to know the reason for this error (FileNotFoundError : [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'bahal.csv')

import csv
from statistics import mean
with open('bahal.csv') as f:
    reader = csv.reader(f)
    for row in reader:
        name = row[0]
        average = statistics.mean(row[1:])
        javab = name , average
print(javab)

Answer 1

good prectise is to use full file names because with relative it is hard to keep track of where what is

if you run:

user@~$ python file.py

it will see just files in ~(home dir)

if you run:

user@~/workfolder$ python file.py

it will see ~/workfolder files and so on

main thing is what the working dir is

Answer 2

The file bahal. csv should be in the same folder as the pyton file you are working on OR Try including full path.
