Hello I am trying to take the commands that i have done interactively, and create a python program that will create a file, collect data from the user, and write the information to the file. I have hit a roadblock when it comes to creating the program in python however below is what I have done interactively in shell:

>>> import os

>>> os.getcwd()

'C:\\Users\\laure\\AppData\\Local\\Programs\\Python\\Python39'

>>> os.chdir("c:\\users\\laure")

>>> os.getcwd()

'c:\\users\\laure'

>>> if not os.path.exists("work"):

os.mkdir("work")

>>> os.chdir("work")

>>> os.getcwd()

'c:\\users\\laure\\work'

>>> account=open("accounts.txt","w+")

>>> os.listdir()

['accounts.txt']

>>> accountList=[]

>>> for i in range(5):

accountList.append(input("Please enter your name"))

Please enter your name Graham Chapman

Please enter your name John Cleese

Please enter your name Eric Idle

Please enter your name Michael Palin

Please enter your name Terry Giliam

>>> print(accountList)

[' Graham Chapman', ' John Cleese', ' Eric Idle', ' Michael Palin', ' Terry Giliam']

>>> for name in accountList:

account.write(name + " ")
