How do I escape forward slashes in python, so that open() sees my file as a filename to write, instead of a filepath to read?
Let me preface this by saying I'm not exactly sure what is happening with my code; I'm fairly new to programming. I've been working on creating an individual final project for my python CS class that checks my teacher's website on a daily basis and determines if he's changed any of the web pages on his website since the last time the program ran or not. The step I'm working on right now is as follows: def write_pages_files(): ''' Writes the various page files from the website's links ''' links = get_site_links() for page in links: site_page = requests.get(root_url + page) soup = BeautifulSoup
