Function: readline

The readline function is similar to read, but it reads only one line at a time. It is designed for use when sequentially processing lines in a file, such as during an import operation.

Parameters:

Parameter Name Type Description
FileID int FileID obtained from the open function.

Return Value:

Type string: The next line in the file. When the end of the file is reached, it returns "EOF" (End of File).

Example:

int x = open("myFile.txt", "r");
string line;
repeat
    line = readline(x);
    // .. do something with the line
until (line == "EOF");

The readline function is useful for reading and processing files line by line, making it suitable for various tasks like data imports.
