• Redirecting output to a file:
• Any output that your python file produces, eg. print statements,
  can be redirected to a file.
  That is, instead of the output going to the terminal, it will write to a file.
• If running your file from a command line terminal, syntax is:
  $ sudo python [path/filename.py] > [output path/filename.txt]
  (the .txt extension is nominal, since the file will Be a text file, but could optionally be any or no extension)
• Every time you execute such a redirected program, a new output file will be created.
  That is, if you're using the same output filename, then whatever was in any already existing file will be over-written the next time your redirection is executed
