[python] Print string to text file

I'm using Python to open a text document:

text_file = open("Output.txt", "w")

text_file.write("Purchase Amount: " 'TotalAmount')

text_file.close()

I want to substitute the value of a string variable TotalAmount into the text document. Can someone please let me know how to do this?

If you are using numpy, printing a single (or multiply) strings to a file can be done with just one line:

numpy.savetxt('Output.txt', ["Purchase Amount: %s" % TotalAmount], fmt='%s')

With using pathlib module, indentation isn't needed.

import pathlib
pathlib.Path("output.txt").write_text("Purchase Amount: {}" .format(TotalAmount))

As of python 3.6, f-strings is available.

pathlib.Path("output.txt").write_text(f"Purchase Amount: {TotalAmount}")

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 25.256


def 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()

In case you want to pass multiple arguments you can use a tuple

price = 33.3
with open("Output.txt", "w") as text_file:
    text_file.write("Purchase Amount: %s price %f" % (TotalAmount, price))
