Python write to a file returns empty file

Question

I am trying to do simple commands to write hello world to a file:

50 complexity:test% python2.7
Python 2.7.3 (default, Feb 11 2013, 12:48:32)
[GCC 4.4.6 20120305 (Red Hat 4.4.6-4)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> f=open("/export/home/vignesh/resres.txt","w")
>>> f.write("hello world")
>>> f.write("\t".join(["hello","world"]))

This returns an empty file.
