Hi, I'm doing the 'Python for Everyone' course from ESRI http://training.esri.com/Courses/Pyt...0_1/player.cfm and my script isn't working.
It says that
will create and open a text file, however, when I run the script I get these errors returned:
"Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Python27\ArcGIS10.2\Lib\site-packages\pythonwin\pywin\framework\scriptutils.py", line 326, in RunScript
exec codeObject in __main__.__dict__
File "C:\Student\PythEveryone10_1\CreatingScripts\BismarckShapefiles.py", line 11, in <module>
file = open(path, 'w')
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'C:\\Student\\PythEveryone10_1\\Creating Scripts\\BismarckUpd.txt'"
Here is the whole script.
If you could help me understand what I'm doing wrong or where something went wrong I'd appreciate it, thank you.
