Writing a list to a file with Python

Question

Is this the cleanest way to write a list to a file, since writelines() doesn\'t insert newline characters?

file.writelines([\"%s\\n\" % item  fo         


        

Answer 1

You can also use the print function if you're on python3 as follows.

f = open("myfile.txt","wb")
print(mylist, file=f)
