Is there any difference between these 2 codes?

1.fhand = open(‘mbox-short.txt’)

inp = fhand.read()

2.fhand = open(‘mbox-short.txt’,“r”)

There is no difference between the two lines functionally, they do the same thing. ‘r’ is read only mode and is the default assumed when you run the open function.
