Let the code explain the question:


	h = peripheral.wrap("bottom")
	print("Please enter blank data disk")
  
	os.pullEvent("disk")
	h = fs.open("disk/card","r")
	
	h.writeLine("123")				  --This is where the computer says the error is
	h.close()
	disk.eject("bottom")

Did I open my file correctly? My file is 'card' in the disk directory, except it hasn't been made yet. I want to make it with this program.

You're opening the file for reading (using "r") - you want to open the file for writing (use "w")
