Synopsis

                        z.write(filename,arcname=None,compress_type=None)

Writes the file named by string filename to archive z, with archive member name arcname. When arcname is None, write uses filename as the archive member name. When compress_type is None, write uses z’s compression type; otherwise, compress_type is zipfile.ZIP_STORED or zipfile.ZIP_DEFLATED, and specifies how to compress the file. z must be opened for 'w' or 'a‘.
