How do I copy a file in Python?

I couldn\'t find anything under os.

Answer 1

You could use os.system('cp nameoffilegeneratedbyprogram /otherdirectory/')

or as I did it,

os.system('cp '+ rawfile + ' rawdata.dat')

where rawfile is the name that I had generated inside the program.

This is a Linux only solution
