How to replace two different lines of text?

Question

I need to create a file that changes the date and name of a .txt, but I can only change one or the other with this code I found on the internet, can anyone give me any tips?

Print

import os
from ast import Str

file = open("example.txt", "r")
replacement = ""

data = "02/07/2022"
name = "Alan"


for line in file:
    line = line.strip()
    changes = line.replace("__/__/____", data)
    replacement = replacement + changes + "\n"

file.close()

fout = open("final.txt", "w")
fout.write(replacement)
fout.close()

You don't need to do this a line a time. You can replace that entire program with this:

data = "02/07/2022"
name = "Alan"

text = open("example.txt", "r").read().replace("__/__/____", data)
open("final.txt", "w").write(text)
