In Reddit, a redditor is the term given to a user. Reddit gives us the functionality to add a redditor as a friend with the authenticated user. Here we will see how to befriend a redditor. We will be using the friend()
method of the Redditor
class to befriend a redditor.

The user name of the redditor is : spez
# importing the module import praw
# initialize with appropriate values client_id = ""
client_secret = ""
username = ""
password = ""
user_agent = ""
# creating an authorized reddit instance reddit = praw.Reddit(client_id = client_id,
client_secret = client_secret,
username = username,
password = password,
user_agent = user_agent)
# the name of the redditor redditor_name = "spez"
# instantiating the Redditor class redditor = reddit.redditor(redditor_name)
# before using the friend() method print ( "Are the authenticated user and " + redditor.name +
" friends? : " + str (redditor.is_friend))
# befriending the redditor redditor.friend() # after using the friend() method print ( "Are the authenticated user and " + redditor.name +
