Thank you for the quick reply. Let me put my question in a more
clearer way for you.

If we want to create a text file and write some text into it we use the
following command in Python:

myfile = open("test.txt","w")<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns =
"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

myfile.write("hello world")

But what if instead of writing the text 'hello world', i want to write
the output returned by a regular expression pattern, into the text file,
how would we specify that in the write command.

Regards,

Hafsa

Gaah.  Typos.  My apologies.  Here's a correction to double()

     def double(s):
         """double: string -> string
         Doubles up the input string s.  For example, double("abc")
         should return "abcabc".
         """
         return s + s

disk?

I meant to say that the expected content of the file should be:

      "hello worldhello world"

My apologies; I rushed that message too quickly.
