Hi ! Here is Python 3.3 Is it better in any way to use print(x,x,x,file='out') or out.write(x) ? Any reason to prefer any of them ? There should be a printlines, like readlines ? Thanks,
The print function automatically appends newlines to the end of what it prints.
So if you had text = 'Hello!' and you did: print(text, file=outfile) then outfile would contain 'Hello!\n' In contrast, outfile.write(text) would only write 'Hello!'. No newline. There are lots of other handy things you can do with the print function: values = [1,2,3,4] print(*values, sep='\n', file=outfile) I'll leave it to you to experiment.
