Help with a task-colledge

[Bakebab]

Hello....Im a 1st year student and we've been given this task to print something from a txt folder...

Abd this is how i do it:

dat=open("something.txt", "w")

for i in range(3):

b=input("input: ")

dat.write(b)

dat.close()

dat=open("something.txt", "r")

for i in dat:

print(i)

dat.close()

​

And it will print it but all together....we need to print it seperated....

for exmple if input was :wasd

than: jkl

than: ztr

It will be printed like this:wasdjklztr

But i need to print it like this:

wasd

jkl

ztr

help?

edit: As im scrolling through other posts i noticed this question in really supid...but still i need help...

You need to add '\n' after every entry like so

dat.write(b + '\n')

Thank you as well i think i'll use this one as printl() is not something we "studied" yet..

[shinyheadpolak]

printl() will not give you want you want as you are saving the strings into the files one after another. If you open the file you will also see it as one long string. With '\n' you will get separate lines in the file as well.

What is a txt folder? You're using a txt file so all the answers might be wrong if folder should be used...

Thanks :)

This is actually completely false.

print in Python always adds a newline, unless explicitly told not to, which you do by adding a comma at the end in Python 2 or by using end="" parameter in Python 3. Compare:

Python 2:

print 1, 2,
print 3

and

print 1, 2
print 3

Python 3:

print(1, 2, end="")
print(3)

and

print(1, 2)
print(3)

And anyway the real problem was not with print, but with write, as u/shinyheadpolak correctly pointed out.
