Python's Text Teleporter: Copying Content Between Documents

Need to grab text from one document and magically transport it to another in Python? It's easier than you think! Python makes copying text between files a breeze, opening up possibilities for automation, data processing, and more.

Here's the basic idea: First, you open the source document in 'read' mode ('r'). Then, you read the entire content into a variable using `.read()`. Next, you open the destination document in 'write' mode ('w') or 'append' mode ('a'), depending on whether you want to overwrite the existing content or add to it. Finally, you use `.write()` to paste the text into the destination file.

For example:

```python
with open('source.txt', 'r') as source_file:
text = source_file.read()

with open('destination.txt', 'w') as destination_file:
destination_file.write(text)
```

This simple script effectively copies the content of 'source.txt' into 'destination.txt'. Remember to handle potential exceptions, like files not being found, for robust code. Now you can move text like a wizard!
