with open('dep_parse.txt', 'r') as f: dep_parses = f.read().strip().split('\n\n')

This code reads the contents of a file named "dep_parse.txt" and stores the contents in the variable "dep_parses". The file contains multiple dependency parses separated by double newlines ('\n\n').

The "with" statement is used to open the file and automatically close it when the block is exited. The "r" argument specifies that the file is being opened in read mode.

The "strip()" method is used to remove any leading or trailing whitespace characters from the file contents.

The "split('\n\n')" method is used to split the file contents into a list of strings, with each string containing a single dependency parse. The '\n\n' argument specifies that the list should be split whenever two consecutive newline characters are encountered.
