Scanning a file character by character

[Spacebar265]

Hi. Does anyone know how to scan a file character by character and
have each character so I can put it into a variable. I am attempting
to make a chatbot and need this to read the saved input to look for
spelling mistakes and further analysis of user input.
Thanks
