i am trying to create an image file using opencv in python.
when i am creating it in same folder file is created
face_file_name = "te.jpg"
cv2.imwrite(face_file_name, image)
but when i am trying to create it in another folder like
face_file_name = "test\te.jpg"
cv2.imwrite(face_file_name, image)
file is not created. can someone explain the reasons??
i even tried giving absolute path.
i am using python2.7 in windows.

cv2.imwrite() will not write an image in another directory if the directory does not exist. You first need to create the directory before attempting to write to it:
import os
dirname = 'test'
os.mkdir(dirname)
From here, you can either write to the directory without changing your working directory:
cv2.imwrite(os.path.join(dirname, face_file_name), image)
Or change your working directory and omit the directory prefix, depending on your needs:
os.chdir(dirname)
cv2.imwrite(face_file_name, image)
