Write a function named "count_lines" that takes a string as a parameter representing the name of a file to read and returns the number of lines in the file.
I honestly don't fully understand what needs to be done to complete the task.
I know that I need the parameter to open the file name stored in the parameter, but not sure how to do it or the for loop to count the lines in the file itself.
Thank you
