Hello


def saveBugs(data):
    store = open(filename, 'w')
    for timeMark,aList in data.items():
        store.write(timeMark + '\n')
        store.write(aList + '\n')
    store.close()

data is a dictionary
aList is a list

After i run this part the following error pops up:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Python\Bugs.py", line 133, in <module>
    main()
  File "C:\Python\Bugs.py", line 130, in main
    saveBugs(dataBugs)
  File "C:\Python\Bugs.py", line 17, in saveBugs
    store.write(aList + '\n')
TypeError: can only concatenate list (not "str") to
list

Can anybody tell me how to make it work
