Here is how to create a text file and write text on it in Python.

# Specify the path for the new text file
new_file_path = 'new_file.txt'

# Content to write to the new file
content_to_write = """Hello, world!
This is a new text file created with Python.
We can add as many lines of text as we wish.""" 

# Using the with statement to open the file in write mode
with open(new_file_path, 'w', encoding='utf-8') as file:
    # Write the content to the file
    file.write(content_to_write) 

print(f"Content written to {new_file_path}") 

Copy & Run

---

• new_file_path: Replace 'new_file.txt' with your desired file name or path. If you specify a file name without a directory path, the file will be created in the same directory as your Python script. For a different location, provide the full path.

• content_to_write: This variable contains the text that you want to write to the file. You can modify this string to contain any text you want.

• open(new_file_path, 'w', encoding='utf-8'): This opens (or creates, if it doesn't exist) a file for writing ('w'). If the file already exists, this mode will overwrite it. The encoding='utf-8' parameter specifies the file's encoding, which is especially important for text containing special characters.

• file.write(content_to_write): This writes the string stored in content_to_write to the file.
