How do I take in userinput but redirect all of it to another file?

I have a piece of code and I would like to transfer everything the user types to a different file so that I can keep that information forever. How would I do this? My code is below. Please note that my code is completely in python 3.6.1.

username = input('What is your name: ')

with open (username, "w") as u:
    u.write(input())
Solution 
  • username = input('What is your name: ')

u=open(username+".txt", "w")
while True:

    print("enter your inputs")
    inp=input()
    u.write(inp+"\n")
    #do something with inputs.
    if(inp=="exit"):
        break

u.close()
