The best way (for me) to think of this is the first argument, base is like the page you are on in your browser. The second argument url is the href of an anchor on that page. The result is the final url to which you will be directed should you click.
Copy>>> urljoin('some', 'thing')
'thing'
This one makes sense given my description. Though one would hope base includes a scheme and domain.
Copy>>> urljoin('http://some', 'thing')
'http://some/thing'
If you are on a vhost some, and there is an anchor like <a href='thing'>Foo</a> then the link will take you to http://some/thing
Copy>>> urljoin('http://some/more', 'thing')
'http://some/thing'
We are on some/more here, so a relative link of thing will take us to /some/thing
Copy>>> urljoin('http://some/more/', 'thing') # just a tad / after 'more'
'http://some/more/thing'
Here, we aren't on some/more, we are on some/more/ which is different. Now, our relative link will take us to some/more/thing
Copy>>> urljoin('http://some/more/', '/thing')
'http://some/thing'
And lastly. If on some/more/ and the href is to /thing, you will be linked to some/thing.

urllib.parse.urljoin(base, url)
If url is an absolute URL (that is, starting with //, http://, https://, ...), the url’s host name and/or scheme will be present in the result. For example:
Copy>>> urljoin('https://www.google.com', '//www.microsoft.com')
'https://www.microsoft.com'
>>>
otherwise, urllib.parse.urljoin(base, url) will
Construct a full (“absolute”) URL by combining a “base URL” (base) with another URL (url). Informally, this uses components of the base URL, in particular the addressing scheme, the network location and (part of) the path, to provide missing components in the relative URL.
Copy>>> urlparse('http://a/b/c/d/e')
ParseResult(scheme='http', netloc='a', path='/b/c/d/e', params='', query='', fragment='')
>>> urljoin('http://a/b/c/d/e', 'f')
>>>'http://a/b/c/d/f'
>>> urlparse('http://a/b/c/d/e/')
ParseResult(scheme='http', netloc='a', path='/b/c/d/e/', params='', query='', fragment='')
>>> urljoin('http://a/b/c/d/e/', 'f')
'http://a/b/c/d/e/f'
>>>
it grabs the path of the first parameter (base), strips the part after the last / and joins with the second parameter (url).
If url starts with /, it joins the scheme and netloc of base with url
Copy>>>urljoin('http://a/b/c/d/e', '/f')
'http://a/f'

My code is:
url_part_1 = "https://www.courtlistener.com"
url_part_2 = open("extracted_absolute_urls.txt", "r", encoding="utf-8")I need combined_url (variable) to bring both of these together. extracted_absolute_urls.txt which contains the following:
/opinion/4902955/state-v-schierman/
What's the best approach to this?
Thank you for this reddit and your time!
