Encrypt file in python with aes

Encrypting a file in Python using Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) can be achieved using the cryptography library, which provides a high-level interface for cryptographic operations. Below is a step-by-step tutorial on how to encrypt a file using AES in Python, along with code examples.
If you haven't installed the cryptography library, you can do so using the following command:
This code uses the AES encryption algorithm in Cipher Feedback (CFB) mode, which is a stream cipher mode. The PBKDF2HMAC function is used to derive a key from the password, and a random salt is generated for added security. The salt and IV are written to the output file, followed by the encrypted file content.
Note: This example is for educational purposes, and for actual use, you should consider additional security measures, such as securely storing the password and managing keys.
