How to load the letter and their log probabilities in database.txt into our program?

I have a txt file and I need to add this txt file into my program to access the unigram and bigram database.

Is there any way I could load it into the program directly without hardcoding/copy and paste?

***********************************************************

**** This table is the log_2 
**** probability of letter unigrams   
**** i.e., log_2(p('a letter'))
**** Note: the unigram and probability are tab delimited       

***********************************************************

a	-3.561879942602564
b	-6.036018896964266
c	-4.9663355149956425

***********************************************************

**** This table is the log_2  
**** probability of letter bigrams
**** i.e., log_2(p('first letter, second letter'))
**** Note: the bigram and probability are tab delimited

This function on FileExchange simply returns a long list of all the numbers in the file. Since it looks like your file has the numbers in a pre-determined order with no extraneous numbers, it might do what you want.
