Example 1: python write to file

path = "guide/README.txt" # The path of your file should go here
with open(path, "w") as fil: # Opens the file using 'w' method. See below for list of methods.
  fil.write("This is the README. It is reccomended that you read it.") # Writes to the file used .write() method
  fil.close() # Closes file
'''
List of methods:
w* - replace everything with needed text
r^ - read the file
a* - adds to file

Example 2: python file open

#there are many modes you can open files in. r means read.
file = open('C:\Users\yourname\files\file.txt','r')
text = file.read()

#you can write a string to it, too!
file = open('C:\Users\yourname\files\file.txt','w')
file.write('This is a typical string')

#don't forget to close it afterwards!
file.close()
