Unable to write index into CSV file-CodePudding

I am trying to write the index values in a csv file but I am getting error.

code used for writing into csv

test = df.sort_values(['sqdist'], ascending=[False])
for i in range(len(test)):
 print(test.index[i])

The above code gives me output like this. These are the index values and I am trying to write this in a CSV using the below code.

7163
4332
3319
1213
1212
6984
4331
4362
6393
515

Trying to write the above output into a csv file exactly like how i see above.


    
with open ("scores.txt",'w') as f1:
        writer = csv.writer(f1, lineterminator='\n', )
        for i in range(len(test)):
            writer.writerow(test.index[i])
    
    print("Saved the scores in the text file score.txt")


Error:

     97 print("Saved the scores in the text file ranking.txt")
     98 

Error: iterable expected, not numpy.int64

CodePudding user response：

with open ("/scores.txt",'w') as f1:
        writer = csv.writer(f1, delimiter='\t', lineterminator='\n', )
        for i in test:
            writer.writerow([i])
    
 print("Saved the scores in the text file scores.txt")

Above is the modified code

CodePudding user response：

The argument to writerow() must be a sequence, since each element of the sequence will be a separate field in the CSV.

If you're just writing a single field, wrap it in a list or tuple.

writer.writerow([i])

Although if you just have one field, there's not much point in using the csv module in the first place.
