在Python 3中，该语言会在平台的原生表示中为你编码换行符。这意味着在Windows上是\r\n，而在成熟的系统上只是\n。

即使在U*x系统上，以文本模式读取Windows行结束符的文件也会返回正确的文本结果，即在\n字符之前的任何\r字符都会被无声地删除。

如果需要完全控制文件中的字节，则可以使用二进制模式。然后，每个字节恰好对应一个字节，Python不执行任何转换。

>>> # Write a file with different line endings, using binary mode for full control
>>> with open('/tmp/demo.txt', 'wb') as wf:
...     wf.write(b'DOS line\r\n')
...     wf.write(b'U*x line\n')
...     wf.write(b'no line')

>>> # Read the file as text
>>> with open('/tmp/demo.txt', 'r') as text:
...     for line in text:
...         print(line, end='')
DOS line
U*x line
no line

>>> # Or more demonstrably
>>> with open('/tmp/demo.txt', 'r') as text:
...     for line in text:
...         print(repr(line))
'DOS line\n'
'U*x line\n'
'no line'

>>> # Back to bytes!
>>> with open('/tmp/demo.txt', 'rb') as binary:
...     for line in binary:
...         print(line)
b'DOS line\r\n'
b'U*x line\n'
b'no line'

>>> # Open in binary, but convert back to text
>>> with open('/tmp/demo.txt', 'rb') as binary:
...     for line in binary:
...         print(line.decode('utf-8'), end='')
DOS line
U*x line
no line

>>> # Or again in more detail, with repr()
>>> with open('/tmp/demo.txt', 'rb') as binary:
...     for line in binary:
...         print(repr(line.decode('utf-8')))
'DOS line\r\n'
'U*x line\n'
'no line'

'\n'也是一样，不过你可能不需要'\r'。在Java版本中使用它的原因是什么?如果你确实需要/想要它，你也可以在Python中以同样的方式使用它。

这里有一个更易读的解决方案，即使你不在顶级缩进(例如，在函数定义中)，它也能正确工作。

import textwrap
file.write(textwrap.dedent("""
    Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
    That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
    And then is heard no more: it is a tale
    Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
    Signifying nothing.
"""))

与平台无关的断行符:Linux、Windows和iOS

import os
keyword = 'physical'+ os.linesep + 'distancing'
print(keyword)

输出:

physical
distancing

各种等效方法

使用打印

默认情况下，打印已经追加了换行符!

with open("out.txt", "w") as f:
    print("First", file=f)
    print("Second", file=f)

等同于:

with open("out.txt", "w") as f:
    print("First\nSecond", file=f)

要打印而不自动添加换行符，使用sep=""(因为sep="\n"是默认值):

with open("out.txt", "w") as f:
    print("First\nSecond\n", sep="", file=f)

使用f.write

对于以文本模式打开的文件:

with open("out.txt", "w") as f:
    f.write("First\nSecond\n")

对于以二进制模式打开的文件，写入文件时不会自动将\n转换为特定于平台的行结束符。要强制使用当前平台的换行符，请使用os。Linesep代替\n:

with open("out.txt", "wb") as f:
    f.write("First" + os.linesep)
    f.write("Second" + os.linesep)

输出文件

视觉:

First
Second

在Linux上，换行符将以\n分隔:

First\nSecond\n

在Windows中，换行符将以\r\n分隔:

First\r\nSecond\r\n

为了避免以文本模式打开的文件自动将\n转换为\r\n，请使用open("out.txt"， "w"， newline="\n")打开文件。

您可以单独写入新行，也可以在单个字符串中写入，这样更容易。

示例1

输入

line1 = "hello how are you"
line2 = "I am testing the new line escape sequence"
line3 = "this seems to work"

你可以把“\n”分开写:

file.write(line1)
file.write("\n")
file.write(line2)
file.write("\n")
file.write(line3)
file.write("\n")

输出

hello how are you
I am testing the new line escape sequence
this seems to work

示例2

输入

正如其他人在之前的回答中指出的那样，将\n放在字符串中的相关点:

line = "hello how are you\nI am testing the new line escape sequence\nthis seems to work"

file.write(line)

输出

hello how are you
I am testing the new line escape sequence
this seems to work
