- The error you encountered ('utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xff in position 0: invalid start byte) likely means that the input text file is encoded in a format other than UTF-8 (e.g., UTF-16, Latin-1, etc.). By default, Python assumes files are in UTF-8 encoding when reading them, which can cause issues if the file's actual encoding differs.
- To resolve this, you can detect the encoding of the input file and read it accordingly, or you can try using a fallback encoding like latin-1 or utf-16.
