Have a look at the [documentation](https://docs.julialang.org/en/v1/base/io-network/#Base.open), which you can also access from the REPL by typing `? open` and `? do`.  
If you still have questions after reading the documentation feel free to ask.

Depending on what exactly it is that you do, I don’t think the optimal solution is to print the arrays into a text file like this. Maybe you can organize all your data in a [dataframe](https://juliadata.github.io/DataFrames.jl/stable/) which you can then more easily manipulate and save/load from file.

You could also use a package like [JLD2](https://github.com/JuliaIO/JLD2.jl) which allows you to save and load Julia objects in a format similar to HDF5.
