To create a file of a particular size, just seek to the byte number(size) you want to create the file of and write a byte there.For examplewith open('my_file', 'wb') as f:     f.seek(1024 * 1024 * 1024) # One GB     f.write('0')This creates a sparse file by not actually taking up all that space. To create a full file, you should write the whole file:with open('my_file', 'wb') as f:     num_chars = 1024 * 1024 * 1024     f.write('0' * num_chars)

Syntax Following is the syntax used to truncate the file to a given size − file.truncate(size) Sending the parameter to this method is not essential.
