Hello!I'm using python 2.7.5 version and I'm trying to write a program related to a file named unsorted_fruits.txt contains a list of 26 fruits, each one with a name that
begins with a different letter of the alphabet. My program's goal is to read in the fruits from the file unsorted_fruits.txt
and writes them out in alphabetical order to a file named sorted_fruits.txt while I'm using while loop

For
this assignment you must incorporate the use of a list, for loop and / or while
loop.so here is what I have on my script:
infile = open('Desktop/unsorted_fruits.docx' ,"r")outfile = open('Desktop/sorted_fruits.docx', 'w')
def find():    index = 0    while index < 26:        list < 26        list = ["a", "b", "c", "e", "f", "g", "h", "i", "j", "k", "l", "m", "n" "o", "p", "q", "r", "s", "t", "u", "v", "w", "z", "y", "z"]        if index[0] == list[0]:            infile = list + 1            print infile        index += 1    infile.close()     outfile.close() 
And here is my output:
Python 2.7.5 (default, May 15 2013, 22:43:36) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)] on win32Type "copyright", "credits" or "license()" for more information.>>> ================================ RESTART ================================>>> 
Traceback (most recent call last):  File "F:/7.real.py", line 1, in <module>    infile = open('Desktop/unsorted_fruits.docx' ,"r")IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'Desktop/unsorted_fruits.docx'>>> 

I'm not sure if I write the program correctly, but I can't get my file wich is on my desktop to the program. CAn someone help me please?
