computer’s disk. Write a program that calculates the average of all the numbers stored in
the file.

This is what i have so far. I have a text file with some 6 random names in it. I'm not sure where to go from here to get the program to display the number of names.

def main():
# Open the names.txt file.
in_file = open('names.txt', 'r')

# Read the first line from the file, which is
# the name field of the first record.
name = in_file.readline()
