print_entire_file

Language/Type: Python file input

Write a function named print_entire_file that prompts the user for a file name and prints the contents of that file to the console as output. You may assume that the file exists. For example, if the file example.txt contains the following input data: 

hello  how    are you
1 2 3 4

I am fine

Then the following would be an example dialogue of your function: 

Type a file name: example.txt
hello  how    are you
1 2 3 4

I am fine
Function: Write a Python function as described, not a complete program.
