Answer to Question #97308 in Python for yousif

Question

import os

# This program has read/write access to the WORKSPACE directory
filepath = os.path.join( os.environ['WORKSPACE'], 'yourfilename.txt' )
file = open(filepath, 'w')
Write a program to input ten book titles and authors names then save them to a file named book.txt.


For each book, the user will first input the title, then input the first name, then the last name of the author, all on separate lines. In addition to saving the books in the file, please output, using the print method, the information you've gathered from the user.

import os
# This program has read/write access to the WORKSPACE directory


filepath = os.path.join( os.environ['WORKSPACE'], 'books.txt' )
file = open(filepath, 'w')


books_data = []
for i in range(10):
    print('%i/10. Input please...' % (i+1))
    title = input('title of the book: ')
    name = input('first name of the author: ')
    surname = input('last name of the author: ')


    books_data.append('%s\n%s\n%s' % (
        title.upper(), surname.title(), name.title()))
    print()


file.write(('\n\n').join(books_data))
file.close() 


with open(filepath, 'r') as f:
    f = f.read()


for book in f.split('\n\n'):
    print('%s\t%s, %s' % tuple(book.split('\n')))
