AttributeError：'bool'对象没有属性'count'

Question

I am new to Python and I am writing this code below.

fileName = input("Enter the file name: ")
InputFile = open(fileName, 'r')
text=InputFile.readable()

sentences = text.count('.') + text.count('?') + \
            text.count(':') + text.count(';') + \
            text.count('!')

I can't get past the count function because of this error below. I have done some research and tried importing some libraries but that didn't work. Can someone guide me in the right direction? I feel so lost.

 text.count(':') + text.count(';') + \
AttributeError: 'bool' object has no attribute 'count'

Answer 1

There is a buggy line in your code:

text = InputFile.readable()

Which returns a boolean that has no attribute count

Should have been:

text = InputFile.read()
