Very basic Python question (strings, formats and escapes)

Question

I am starting to learn Python with an online guide, and I just did an exercise that required me to write this script:

from sys import argv

script, filename = ar         


        

Answer 1

I think they want you to use string concatenation:

target.write(line1 + "\n" + line2 + "\n" + line3 + "\n")

Much less readable, but you have only one target.write() command
