title: writing output for python not functioning
body: <p>I am attempting to output a new txt file but it come up blank. I am doing this</p>
  
  <pre><code>my_file = open("something.txt","w")
  #and then
  my_file.write("hello")
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Right after this line it just says 5 and then no text comes up in the file</p>
  
  <p>What am I doing wrong?</p>
