The close() Method in Python 3
The close() method of a file object flushes
any unwritten information and closes the file object, after which no more
writing can be done.
Python automatically closes a file when the reference
object of a file is reassigned to another file. It is a good practice to use the close()
method to close a file.
Syntax
|
fileObject.close();
|
Example
|
#!/usr/bin/python3
# Open
a file
fo =
open("foo.txt", "wb")
print
("Name of the file: ", fo.name)
# Close
opened file
fo.close()
|
This produces the following result-
|
Name of
the file: foo.txt
|
