Writing parallel arrays to a file

Notes:

• Only strings can be written to a file, anything else must be cast to a string.
• The example will create a csv file.

File are opened in write mode (w). If the file exists it will be overwritten, otherwise it will be created.

# Make a connection to the file
file = open("newPeople.csv", "w")

# Loop for each value
for index in range(len(names)):

    # Cast as appropriate
    file.write(names[index] + ",")
    file.write(str(ages[index]) + ",")
    file.write(str(heights[index]) + "\n")

# Close the connection to the file
file.close()

\n = new line
