Context -
Module Title and Objectives
Module 8 - File I/O
Explain the structure of file systems
Describe the different modes for opening files
Demonstrate assigning values to variables by reading from a file
Demonstrate writing text files in Python
Problem description
The problem requires completing a Python program, named lab8_p3.py, to store the contents
of a list called 'months' into a text file named 'months.txt'. Each month from the list should be
stored on a separate line in the text file. Essentially, the program needs to write the elements
of the 'months' list into the 'months.txt' file with each month on a new line

Make connections between your process and the learning objectives for
this week.
Before starting the implementation, I reviewed my understanding of file systems,
including the hierarchical structure of directories and files. This understanding helped me plan
where the output file should be located and how it should be named. I made sure to understand
the different modes for opening files in Python, such as "r" for reading, "w" for writing, and "a" for
appending. Since the task required writing to a file, I chose the "w" mode to open the file for
writing, which would create a new file if it doesn't exist or overwrite the existing one. I wrote the
code to take the provided list of months and then iterate over each month, writing it to the file
with a newline character ("\n") after each month. This process followed the logic of file writing in
Python. After writing the code, I tested it with different inputs and scenarios to ensure that it
correctly writes the months to the file as expected. I checked whether the file was created and
whether its contents matched the expected output. By following these steps, I ensured that my
solution aligned with the learning objectives for this week's topic on File I/O, covering the
understanding of file systems, file opening modes, variable assignment from file reading, and
writing text files in Python.
