So my code looks like this .... but I want to add data always to the end of the document how would I do this
try:
f = open("file.txt", "w")
try:
f.write('blah') # Write a string to a file
f.writelines(lines) # Write a sequence of strings to a file
finally:
f.close()
except IOError:
pass
Open the file using 'a' (append) instead of 'w' (write, truncate)
Besides that, you can do the following isntead of the try..finally block:
with open('file.txt', 'a') as f:
f.write('blah')
f.writelines(lines)
The with block automatically takes care about closing the file at the end of the block.
open the file with "a" instead of "w"
w before, it'll already be empty.
