How can I write to the textfile with “while”?

Question

while 1:
    text_file = open(\"write_it.txt\", \"w\")
    word = input(\"Please add to a text file: \")

What else do I need to add to make my code

Answer 1

Not sure, but that open statement inside of the while couldn't be affecting its behaviour? Have you tried just moving it out of while loop?

Answer 2

This should work:

text_file = open("write_it.txt", "w")
while 1:
    word = input("Please add to a text file: ")
    if not word:
        break
    text_file.write(word)
text_file.close()
