I need to write a lot of information to a file, basically a whole webpage with certain values calculated using my script. I know I can do this using .write(), however I would like to know if you can write several lines at a time to a file, without having to put in all of the line breaks.
For example, I would like to wite the following to a file:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
</head>
<style>
some styling stuff ..
<\style>
<body>
many more lines of code ...
</body>
</html>
Currently I have
file = open('filetowriteto.txt','w')
file.write('<html>\n')
file.write('<head>\n')
...
file.close()
But I would like to be able to do
file.write('
<html>
<head>
</head>
<style>
some styling stuff ..
<\style>
<body>
many more lines of code ...
</body>
</html>')
Does anybody know of a way to do this? Thanks!
When you use triple quotes ('''
), line breaks are read into the string:
file.write('''
<html>
<head>
</head>
<style>
some styling stuff ..
<\style>
<body>
many more lines of code ...
</body>
</html>''')
