Is there a quick and simple way I can create a new file (whether it be a txt or .jl file) from the REPL or in Julia script? I would usually do something like use the touch command from the terminal (even though that is designed to update the timestamp of when the file was last edited).
It looks like I can use the open function in "create" mode but I prefer to not use that syntax.

Writing To a File In Julia In order to write in a file, we need to open the file in write mode by passing “w” as a parameter. Now to write to a file in Julia we use write(fileobject, string) method. It takes two arguments, first is the file object and the second is the String provided.
File Handling in Julia We can write in an existing file in Julia by using the write(fileobject, string) method. To write in a file, we need to open the file in write mode. To do so, we have to pass "w" in the mode argument. The most important step while writing a file is to close the file after the computation.
Opening a FileOpen a file using open() and assign it to a variable which is the instance of the opened file, then make use of that variable for further operations to be performed on the opened file. Then close the file using close().
jl , write include("file. jl") . You can pass additional arguments to Julia, and to your program script. jl .
File handling in Julia is achieved using functions such as open (), read (), close (). There are many ways to read the contents of a file like readline (), readlines () and just read (). open (): To open a file existing in an absolute path, provided as the parameter. read (): Read the contents of the file into a single string.
Julia is a high-level, high-performance, and dynamic programming language that supports file Handling i.e., to read and write files. It is much easier for Julia to open, read, and write files as compared to various other languages.
Reading a File can be done in multiple ways with the use of pre-defined functions in Julia. Files can be read line by line, in the form of strings or the whole file at once. Read the file contents line by line using readline () Function Suppose a file has n lines within.
Julia is a high-level, high-performance, and dynamic programming language that supports file Handling i.e., to read and write files. It is much easier for Julia to open, read, and write files as compared to various other languages. It has a similar way to handle the file as compared to python.
As it turns out, there is actually a touch function in Julia:
julia> touch("test.txt")
"test.txt"
which similar to the terminal command, is designed to allow you to update the timestamp of when the file was last modified, but if the file does not exist, the touch command will create it for you. You can read more about the touch command in the Julia docs.
