Hello all!
I'm trying to use the append mode when opening and writing to a file
but i cant get it to work my way. When run in the present code,
the user inputs are expectedly 'appended' but not in a newline
below the last
line of the existing file.
That's because there is NOT a new line at the end of the file.
It's a file you're appending to, it's up to YOU to create that new
line. And all files should end with newlines anyway (on linux).
So modify your code so that you output a new line at the end of your
outputs.
fobj = open(fname, 'a')
fobj.write('\n'.join(all))
fobj.close()
Are you aware of how 'join' works?
try
print "#".join(['a','b','c'])
at the interactive prompt and see if you can't figure out why you're
missing a newline at the end of your output.
HTH,

Hi Luke,
Thank you. To be honest I'm confused of the different string methods
like join(), split(), etc. Anyway I will practice them to see how they work.
