I have to print "hi world" to a file - how do I do it?

[WarChild]

Ugly, Perl way:

print >> open('somefile', 'w'), 'hello'

Nice, Python way:
open('somefile', 'w').write('hello')

[froomzer]

montanarry, you have a syntax error here. you probably mean "hello world".

[montanarry]

?????

[optomeb]

The second, because if after newline you have a space or more you'll not get rid of newline

[montanarry]

Ok "hello world"
Any idfeas of printing to file

[froomzer]

F=file(path, 'w'); f.write('hello world'); f.close()

[jomanda]

froomzer, what about file(path, 'w').write('hello word')

[montanarry]

froomzer, what if I want to write a few more lines to same file

montanarry, if you want the print behavour (like adding a newline): print >>f, "hello world" instead of f.write("hello world")
