This opens the file for writing text (assuming you're using Python 3).

This tries to write a list to the file. You can't do that. A list isn't
text.

This open the file for reading text. Using 'list' will make it read
lines of text and return them as a list.
> the_array = target
What's 'target'?
> counter = the_array[0]
This will set 'counter' to the first line of text that was read.
> loop = the_array[1]
This will set 'loop' to the second line of text.
> number_of_competitors = the_array[2]
This will set 'number_of_competitors' to the third line of text.
> competitors = the_array[3]
This will set 'number_of_competitors' to the fourth line of text.

Not really! :-)
Have a look at the "pickle" module, or the "json" module.
