Notes (File Writing)

There is not much to writing to a file in Python. The main idea is for you to open a channel to a file, write the information you need to, then close the channel to the file so that other people can open and use the file.

string = "This will be written to a file"

with open('output.txt', 'w') as file:
	file.write(string)

The above example uses 'w' to write to a file. This will overwrite the entire contents of the file. If what you would prefer is to append to the end of the file, you would use the 'a' option instead of 'w'.

Examples

See the file_writing.py example above.
