Reading a file is all well and good, but what if we want to create a file of our own? With Python we can do just that. It turns out that our open() function that we’re using to open a file to read needs another argument to open a file to write to.
script.py
Here we pass the argument 'w' to open() in order to indicate to open the file in write-mode. The default argument is 'r' and passing 'r' to open() opens the file in read-mode as we’ve been doing.
This code creates a new file in the same folder as script.py and gives it the text What an incredible file!. It’s important to note that if there is already a file called generated_file.txt it will completely overwrite that file, erasing whatever its contents were before.
Instructions
Create a file object for the file bad_bands.txt using the open() function with the w argument. Assign this object to the temporary variable bad_bands_doc.
Use the bad_bands_doc.write() method to add the name of a musical group you dislike to the document bad_bands.
