So I want to take the file, "desktop/test.txt" and write it to
"desktop/newfolder/test.txt". I tried the below script, and it gave me: "IOError: [Errno 2] No
such file or directory: 'desktop/%s.txt'". Any suggestions would be great.
def firstdev(file):
in_file = open("desktop/%s.txt") % file
The problem is the above line. Rewrite is thus:
in_file = open("desktop/%s.txt" % file)
indata = in_file.read()
out_file = open("desktop/newfolder/%s.txt", 'w') % file
Same here:
out_file = open("desktop/newfolder/%s.txt"% file, 'w')
out_file.write(indata)
out_file.close()
in_file.close()
Also don't get in the habit of reassigning built-in functions e;g; file.
firstdev("test")
