This looks like homework, so I'm just going to give a broad hint. Figure out a file format (one per line, or pickled, or whatever), then write one program that writes that format and another that reads it. The open() built-in function will open files for reading or writing, so that's a good place to start. Get as far as you can on your own, and if you get stuck, ask the list for more specific help.
