Hello community,Newbie here. I have a data (.dat) file with integers (2,9,1,5,7,3,9) in it just as shown. My instructions are to sort the numbers and rewrite them back to the data file. *here is my code:** * lab3int=[2,9,1,5,7,3,9] lab3int.sort() print(lab3int) lab3int=open('lab3int.dat','w') lab3int.write() lab3int.close() *here is my error message:* [1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 9, 9] Traceback (most recent call last): File "lab3int.py", line 5, in <module> lab3int.write() TypeError: function takes exactly 1 argument (0 given) I know that it is telling me that my error is in line #5. If I put anything in the () for lab3int.write function, then that appears in my data file. however, I am looking to just put the re-sorted integers back into the data file without having to manually type each integer manually. Is there something that i can put into the lab3int.write() to make that happen? Hope my problem is clear, Thanks people
Do you realise you are calling two different very objects, a list of nums and a file, with the same name 'lab3int'?
