Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the code

The code opens a file in write mode ('w'). When a file is opened in write mode, if it doesn't exist, it is created. Then, three write operations are performed, each with a string that ends with `
` (new - line character).

Step2: Count the number of new - line characters

The write operations are:

• `my_notes.write("hello

")` (1 sentence)

• `my_notes.write("some

")` (1 sentence)

• `my_notes.write("notes.

")` (1 sentence)
