text_file = open("Output.txt", "w")
text_file.write("Purchase Amount: %s" % TotalAmount)
text_file.close()
If you use a context manager, the file is closed automatically for you
with open("Output.txt", "w") as text_file:
text_file.write("Purchase Amount: %s" % TotalAmount)
If you're using Python2.6 or higher, it's preferred to use str.format()
with open("Output.txt", "w") as text_file:
text_file.write("Purchase Amount: {0}".format(TotalAmount))
For python2.7 and higher you can use {}
instead of {0}
In Python3, there is an optional file
parameter to the print
function
with open("Output.txt", "w") as text_file:
print("Purchase Amount: {}".format(TotalAmount), file=text_file)
Python3.6 introduced f-strings for another alternative
with open("Output.txt", "w") as text_file:
print(f"Purchase Amount: {TotalAmount}", file=text_file)
