[python] Directing print output to a .txt file

Is there a way to save all of the print output to a txt file in python? Lets say I have the these two lines in my code and I want to save the print output to a file named output.txt.

print ("Hello stackoverflow!")
print ("I have a question.")

I want the output.txt file to to contain

Hello stackoverflow!
I have a question.

Use the logging module

def init_logging():
    rootLogger = logging.getLogger('my_logger')

    LOG_DIR = os.getcwd() + '/' + 'logs'
    if not os.path.exists(LOG_DIR):
        os.makedirs(LOG_DIR)
    fileHandler = logging.FileHandler("{0}/{1}.log".format(LOG_DIR, "g2"))
    rootLogger.addHandler(fileHandler)

    rootLogger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)

    consoleHandler = logging.StreamHandler()
    rootLogger.addHandler(consoleHandler)

    return rootLogger

Get the logger:

logger = init_logging()

And start logging/output(ing):

logger.debug('Hi! :)')

Suppose my input file is "input.txt" and output file is "output.txt".

Let's consider the input file has details to read:

5
1 2 3 4 5

Code:

import sys

sys.stdin = open("input", "r")
sys.stdout = open("output", "w")

print("Reading from input File : ")
n = int(input())
print("Value of n is :", n)

arr = list(map(int, input().split()))
print(arr)

So this will read from input file and output will be displayed in output file.

Another method without having to update your Python code at all, would be to redirect via the console.

Basically, have your Python script print() as usual, then call the script from the command line and use command line redirection. Like this:

$ python ./myscript.py > output.txt

Your output.txt file will now contain all output from your Python script.

Edit:
To address the comment; for Windows, change the forward-slash to a backslash.
(i.e. .\myscript.py)

One can directly store the returned output of a function in a file.

print(output statement, file=open("filename", "a"))

You can redirect stdout into a file "output.txt":

import sys
sys.stdout = open('output.txt','wt')
print ("Hello stackoverflow!")
print ("I have a question.")

Another Variation can be... Be sure to close the file afterwards

import sys
file = open('output.txt', 'a')
sys.stdout = file

print("Hello stackoverflow!") 
print("I have a question.")

file.close()
