Very basic Python question (strings, formats and escapes)

Question

I am starting to learn Python with an online guide, and I just did an exercise that required me to write this script:

from sys import argv

script, filename = ar         


        

Answer 1

I think the intent was for the student to leverage what had been taught in previous lessons and arrive at the following as a solution:

print "Now I'm going to ask you for three lines."

line1 = raw_input("line 1: ")
line2 = raw_input("line 2: ")
line3 = raw_input("line 3: ")

print "I'm going to write these to the file."

target.write(line1 + '\n' + line2 + '\n' + line3 + '\n')

print "And finally, we close it."
target.close()
