Thanks for the answer Dima,
I tried this:
-----
import csv
o=open('test.csv','wb')
output=csv.writer(o)
data=[[1,2],[3,4],[5,6]]
for r in data:
output.writerow(r)
o.close()
----
I'm afraid that that doesn't work either (still output an empty csv file).
Note that I have never had to use the close statement when running in
python or bash mode so I can only assume that it's an issue with the
notebook...
