I'm currently experimenting with lists, the enumerate() method, and CSV files.
In my process, I am using the writerows() method to store an enumerate object in a .csv file. However, once the writing is complete, the list/enumerate object ends up empty.
Why does this occur? Is there a way to retain the values in my list (perhaps by saving them in another variable)?
My setup involves Windows 10 and Python 3.6.4.
Below you will find the code snippet:
import csv
b = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,"lol","hello"]
c = enumerate(b)
with open("output.csv", "w", newline='') as myFile:
print("Writing CSV")
writer = csv.writer(myFile)
writer.writerows(c)
print(list(c))
Output:
>> Writing CSV
>> []
>> [Finished in 0.1s]
If I execute: print(list(c)) before the writing operation, c also becomes empty.
Thank you!
