      I save data from the sensors of the pysense board with

      filename='log/espdata.csv'
      datafile=open(filename,'w')
      datafile.write(......
      

      and it seems to work.

      However, I get no results when I try to read the data:

      espfile=open('log/epsdata.csv','r')
      data=epsfile.read()
      epsfile.close()
      print(data)
      

      What am I doing wrong?

        Well, this seems to work:

        with open('datafile.csv', 'w') as datafile:
            datafile.write("Hello!\n")
            for i in range(0,3):
                datafile.write(str(i)+','+str(i*i)+'\n')
        datafile.close()
        print('Datafile written.')
        
        with open('datafile.csv') as datafile:
            print(datafile.read())
        datafile.close()
        print('Datafile read.')

          @priis In the first example you forgot to close the file. The with clause in the second example is doing that for you. So no need to close there.
          P.S.: When you enclose your code in lines with three backticks (```), then it is printed as such.
