reading and writing to a text file help
#3
try this:
print("ask your question? ", end="") #end="" is optional and removes the new line character so that input can be on the same line as the question
answer = input()
#write to file
with open("your file", "a") as variable_name: #a is append mode so new lines are automatic
 print(answer, file=variable_name)
[/python

[python]
#read from file and print text to screen
with open("your file", "r") as variable_name: #r is read only mode
 for line in variable_name:
  print(line)
