Writing number in file

[atsuko]

Hi all,

I am trying to write float numbers in a file.
But it gave me an error "argument 1 must be string or read only character not float"
then i change it to

xyz = 0.9878
text = f.write(str(xyz))
now the error is .. 'str' object is not callable"

Can somebody help me with this?

Thanks in advance

I am guessing that you used 'str' as a variable name.

>>> str = 'abc'
>>> print str(123.456)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<interactive input>", line 1, in ?
TypeError: 'str' object is not callable
>>> del str
>>> print str(123.456)
123.456
>>>
