Getting a syntax error on the apostrophe in this line
def filecopy('example.txt','output.txt'): #<- Error here on the "'"
infile = open('example.txt',)
text = infile.read()
infile.close()
infile = open('output.txt')
outfile.write(text)
infile.close()
You can't have literals like that in a function declaration, it looks like your are confusing the declaration from the calling of a function:
def filecopy(infile, outfile):
...
# Later call the function
filecopy('example.txt','output.txt')
You can have default arguments:
def filecopy(infile='example.txt', outfile='output.txt'):
...
# But you still need to call it
filecopy()
# or
filecopy('fred.txt', 'wilma.txt')
