Hello, I have a problem while reading numbers from a text file. Let's say I have

1 14 25 12 9 6

written in a text file, and I want python to read those numbers as integers. So when I read and make a list by splitting them [1, 14, 25, 12, 9, 6] I wanna use these numbers for addition/substraction, but Python reads them as str, not int. How to make it read them as integers? Thanks.

You use int():

theFile = open("filename.txt", "r")
theInts = []
for val in theFile.read().split():
    theInts.append(int(val))
theFile.close()

Then just use theInts.
