How do I convert one column of a csv file to a txt file in Python?

Question

I have a specific column in a csv file and I want to write each row of that column as a newline in the same txt file. I'm using Panda if that helps. I can't quite figure out how to iterate over the rows of one specific column.

Do you want to append a column data to same csv file from which you are reading data? Or to a new txt file? — Manjunath K Mayya

Will you please edit your question and include a small sample input, and how "each row of that column as a newline" looks "in the same txt file"? thanks! :) — Zach Young

This should work:

dataframe[colname].to_csv('filepath.txt', sep="\n", index=False)

add header = False if you don't need the column name in that .txt file
