Unable to create csv file

[Sumaira]

Hello

I am beginner. I am using python and tensorflow on IBM Data science experience.
I am facing a problem to create csv file (myFile.csv) in iris folder and get the error that file does not exist.

Path is correct. so Would you please guide me that why am I getting this error? so that I can solve it.

Thank you

OSError: File b'./data/samples/iris/myFile.csv' does not exist

[buran]

your code is trying to create a dataframe by read from a csv file (not creating one). the file ./data/samples/iris/myFile.csv does not exist (that is what error says)

---

also your line #8 os.path.exists("myFile.csv") has no visible effect - you don't print or use in any other way what os.path.exists will return.
Finally you 'check' if myFile.csv in current working directory, and this may or may not be the "./data/samples/iris/"
