Can't write to file
#1
Hi all,

What am I doing wrong here?

test_file = open("C:Users/Mark/Desktop/test.csv",mode="w")
for i in range(11):
    print(i, file=test_file)
test_file.close()
I'm getting FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'C:Users/Mark/Desktop/test.csv' .

I don't have a windows machine to test right now, but shouldn't there be a slash between the C: and the Users?
