i'm making a number list generator and i want to print the output as a list in a .txt file but it always just prints the final value for the variable. here's my code :

zero = ["000000","00000","0000","000","00","0",""] for x in xrange(0,999999): with open("Output.txt", "w") as text_file: text_file.write("011"+zero[len(str(x))] + str(x)+"70")

You're reopening the file for each number. Every time you do that, it empties the file unless you use a mode.

You should open the file once, then do the loop inside that.

with open("Output.txt", "w") as text_file: for x in xrange(0,999999): text_file.write("011"+zero[len(str(x))] + str(x)+"70")

Opening a file for writing erases the file first. Open the file then loop.
