Read from two files

[globo]

I need to read from two files: Student.txt and Absent.txt.
Student.txt contains 7 students
Absent.txt contains 2 students.
I need to report how many students are present and how many are absent.
Any ideas?

Yes, as with any project, break up the big problem into many small steps and solve each small step one at a time. If you run into a problem, ask a specific answerable question and we'll be glad to help you. Luck.
