Trying to solve new lines in python core

Question

Here is my code
names = ["John", "Oscar", "Jacob"]

file = open("names.txt", "w+")
file.write('"John" \n"Oscar" \n"Jacob"')

file.close()

file= open("names.txt", "r")
print(file.read())

file.close()
It is outputting the names with double colon when it's not meant to

Answer 1

names = ["John", "Oscar", "Jacob"]

file = open("names.txt", "w")
#write down the names into the file
for word in names:
file.write(word+'\n')
file.close()
file= open("names.txt", "r")
print(file.read())
#output the content of file in console

file.close()

Answer 2

Line 02: remove single quotation (' ') and use "\n"

Answer 3

names = ["John", "Oscar", "Jacob"]

with open("names.txt", "w") as f:
for i in names:
file.write(i+"\n")

with open("names.txt", "r") as f:
print(f.read())

Answer 4

names = ["John", "Oscar", "Jacob"]

file = open("names.txt", "w")
#write down the names into the file
for i in range(len(names)):
#Access the names list by i index
file.write(names[i] + "\n")
file.close()
#Print contents of file line by line
file= open("names.txt", "r")
print(file.read())

file.close()

Answer 5

Thanks, iTech !

Answer 6

names = ["John", "Oscar", "Jacob"]

file = open("names.txt", "w")
#write down the names into the file
for i in range(len(names)):
file.write(names[i])
file.close()
#Print contents of file line by line
file= open("names.txt", "r")
print(file.read())

file.close()

Answer 7

Used the join() method to get rid of the brackets and quotation marks.
Not sure if we're supposed to use the readlines() function, I didn't.
Hope this helps.

names = ["John", "Oscar", "Jacob"]

file = open("names.txt", "w+")
names1 = "\n".join(names)
file.write(names1)
file.close()

file.open("names.txt", "r")
print(file.read())
file.close()

Answer 8

names = ["John", "Oscar", "Jacob"]

file = open("names.txt", "w+")
file.write('John' '\nOscar' '\nJacob')

file.close()

file= open("names.txt", "r")
print(file.read())

file.close()
This is the correct way to write ur code
this: file.write('"John" \n"Oscar" \n"Jacob"') is close to correct but wrong
its: file.write('John' '\nOscar' '\nJacob')

Answer 9

names = ["John", "Oscar", "Jacob"]

file = open("names.txt", "w")
#write down the names into the file
for word in names:
file.write(word+'\n')
file.close()
file= open("names.txt", "r")
print(file.read())
#output the content of file in console

file.close()

Answer 10

Shortest way is:

names = ["John", "Oscar", "Jacob"]
file = open("names.txt", "w+")
#write down the names into the file
for word in names:
file.write(word+'\n')
file.close()
file= open("names.txt", "r")
#output the content of file in console
print(file.read())
file.close()

Ask if u have some questions!

Answer 11

# The best answer as far as im concerned

names = ["John", "Oscar", "Jacob"]

file = open("names.txt", "w+")
#write down the names into the file
add = file.write(str(names))

file.close()

file = open("names.txt", "r")
#output the content of file in console
for n in names:
print(n)

file.close()

Answer 12

# Using while loop

names = ["John", "Oscar", "Jacob"]

with open("names.txt", "w") as file:
i = 0
while i < len(names):
file.write(names[i] + "\n")
i += 1

try:
file = open("names.txt", "r")
print(file.read())
finally: #makes sure file is always closed
file.close()

Answer 13

names = ["John", "Oscar", "Jacob"]

file = open("names.txt", "w")
#write down the names into the file
for i in range(len(names)):
file.write(names[i])
file.close()
#Print contents of file line by line
file= open("names.txt", "r")
print(file.read())

Answer 14

names = ["John", "Oscar", "Jacob"]

file = open("names.txt", "w+")
for x in names:
file.write(x )
file.write('\n')

#write down the names into the file

file.close()

file= open("names.txt", "r")
print(file.read())

#output the content of file in console

file.close()

Answer 15

This works:
names = ["John", "Oscar", "Jacob"]

file = open("names.txt", "w+")

file.write('John\nOscar\nJacob')

file.close()

file= open("names.txt", "r")

print(file.read())

file.close()
