Problem with sum of values from .txt file

[PathhK]

Hi My task is to count difference between max and min value in each lines from .txt file then sum all these values. I've done the first part(the code below) but I don't know how best is it to sum all these values(I tried many ways).
I'll be grateful for help

filepath = 'rows.txt'  

with open(filepath) as fp:  
   line = [int(num) for num in fp.readline().split()]
   cnt = 1
   while line:
       x=max(line)-min(line)
    
       print("The difference between max-min value in line",cnt,"is :",x)
       cnt += 1
       #print(sum(x))
       #print(cnt)
       line = [int(num) for num in fp.readline().split()]

The result of this code:

Output:
The difference between max-min value in line 1 is : 2574
The difference between max-min value in line 2 is : 1088
The difference between max-min value in line 3 is : 1215
The difference between max-min value in line 4 is : 3852
The difference between max-min value in line 5 is : 1222
The difference between max-min value in line 6 is : 4324
The difference between max-min value in line 7 is : 1121
The difference between max-min value in line 8 is : 2465
The difference between max-min value in line 9 is : 2956
The difference between max-min value in line 10 is : 169
The difference between max-min value in line 11 is : 4644
The difference between max-min value in line 12 is : 992
The difference between max-min value in line 13 is : 1655
The difference between max-min value in line 14 is : 1422
The difference between max-min value in line 15 is : 1659
The difference between max-min value in line 16 is : 662

I tried many ways

So, what did you tried? Post your best attempt

line is a list of the ints in the line. So if you create a new variable, maybe total outside the while loop, you can do: total += sum(line).

Also, why are you using a while loop? Iterating over the file directly is cleaner:

with open("thefile") as fp:
    total = 0
    for cnt, line in enumerate(fp):
        nums = [int(num) for num in line.split()]
        total += sum(nums)
        diff = max(nums) - min(nums)
        print(f"The difference between max-min value in line {cnt} is: {diff}")
    print(f"The total is : {total}")
