Print string to text file
It is strongly advised to use a context manager. As an advantage, it is made sure the file is always closed, no matter what:
with open("Output.txt", "w") as text_file: text_file.write("Purchase Amount: %s" % TotalAmount)
This is the explicit version (but always remember, the context manager version from above should be preferred):
text_file = open("Output.txt", "w")text_file.write("Purchase Amount: %s" % TotalAmount)text_file.close()
If you're using Python2.6 or higher, it's preferred to use str.format()
with open("Output.txt", "w") as text_file: text_file.write("Purchase Amount: {0}".format(TotalAmount))
For python2.7 and higher you can use {}
instead of {0}
In Python3, there is an optional file
parameter to the print
function
with open("Output.txt", "w") as text_file: print("Purchase Amount: {}".format(TotalAmount), file=text_file)
Python3.6 introduced f-strings for another alternative
with open("Output.txt", "w") as text_file: print(f"Purchase Amount: {TotalAmount}", file=text_file)
In case you want to pass multiple arguments you can use a tuple
price = 33.3with open("Output.txt", "w") as text_file: text_file.write("Purchase Amount: %s price %f" % (TotalAmount, price))
If you are using Python3.
then you can use Print Function :
your_data = {"Purchase Amount": 'TotalAmount'}print(your_data, file=open('D:\log.txt', 'w'))
For python2
this is the example of Python Print String To Text File
def my_func(): """ this function return some value :return: """ return 25.256def write_file(data): """ this function write data to file :param data: :return: """ file_name = r'D:\log.txt' with open(file_name, 'w') as x_file: x_file.write('{} TotalAmount'.format(data))def run(): data = my_func() write_file(data)run()
