createfile - I don't get why my python file creation is not working -

import sys  filepath = "d:\\desktop\\sign in out\\" times = ["min.txt","hour.txt","datein.txt","dateout.txt"]  while true:     z = input("enter first , last name. don't put . in name. : ")     y = z+'\\'+z     x in range(len(times)):         f = open(filepath+y+times[x],'w')         f.write('0')         f.close() 

joining files \\ not best way it. recommended way using os.path.join os module:

import os  while true:     z = input("enter first , last name. don't put . in name. : ")     y = os.path.join(*z.split())     x in times:         open(os.path.join(filepath, y, x), 'w') f:             f.write('0') 

i recommend -

1. using context manager handle files, makes code cleaner.

2. iterating on times directly rather indices

also, jean-françois fabre states in answer, you'd better use os.mkdir create directories don't exist before create files in them. here's reference.
