zulupass = input("please enter three digit passcode")
if zulupass=="666":
print("welcome")
open("/Users/johntoniolo/Documents/pythonprojects")
else:
print("retry")
zulupass = input("please enter 3 digit passcode")
l -=1

while i>1:
print("ATTEMPTS EXCEDED!!!!!!")

open("/Users/johntoniolo/Documents/pythonprojects")

That's not how you open files in Python. In fact that looks more a folder name than a file. Have you looked at any Python documentation?


that file is just a file i half effortly grabbed. what i want is to be able to PUT a simple self writen password program on a file. it is a good project i think for learning and practicing codes. so lets say i wanted to open ummmm. all my pictures. id asign it open ("yadyada the path for my pictures folder") and it WOULD open finder with the pictures folder pulled up. is my logical thinking correct
