Ahh, yes. Your main trouble seems to be the use of \ instead of / in 'C:\testing_it.txt'
Windows uses \, whereas python uses /. So you can replace 'c:\....' with your choice of the following: 'c:/....' (replacing \ with /) r'c:\....' (the 'r' before the string tells python it's a raw string) 'c:\\....' (the first \ telling python to take the second \ at face value) -Rob A.
