That's the goal of the latest version of my script at

so far is a file with 800 million digits.
But it seems the writing of 800 million digits is the limit for the
amount of memory my laptop has (4 GB). So my question is, how can I do
this differently? I'm pretty brand new to opening and writing files.
Here, I can't write many shorter lines, because the end result I seek
is one long string. But am I correct?
Not correct. Check this out:
f = open("c:\test.txt", "w")
f.write("1234")
f.write("5678")
print open("c:\test.txt").read()
When you say "line" I assume you mean text followed by whatever the OS defines
as end-of-line or end-of-record.
To write such a line in Python you must include "\n" at the end.
