Write mode “a” in python
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}
when i use the write mode:
d = open("test.txt","a")
d.write(letter)
it always appends the text at the end everytime i write someting into the file.
My question is, how to write as new line like this:
a
b
c
Currently it writes:
abc
Using n does not work unfortunally...
Thanks so much

You can either add a newline character after the letter:
d.write(letter + 'n')
Or if you are using Python 3 or if you from __future__ import print_function
in Python 2:
print(letter, file=d)

As mentioned here, you can do :
with open('test.txt', 'a') as d:
d.write('YOURTEXTn')

The new-line character "n" works fine with "a" (append) option for writing files in python.
Example:
d = open(filepath, "a")
d.write("hello")
d.write("n")
d.write("hello again")
d.close()
o/p:
hello
hello again
OR -> To append text from next line of the existing text of file.
d.write('n')
d.write("hello" + 'n')
