[Tutor] Error in printing out totalSystolic on paper (1018)

[Ken G.]

Receiving the following error from the terminal screen:

Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "Blood Pressure05Print45.py", line 95, in <module>
pr.write(totalSystolic)
TypeError: expected a character buffer object

Portion of strip:
=================

     pr.write (" "), pr.write (pulse), pr.write ("\n")
     totalSystolic = totalSystolic + int(systolic)
     totalDiastolic = totalDiastolic + int(diastolic)
     totalPulse = totalPulse + int(pulse)
file1.close()
print
print totalSystolic, totalDiastolic, totalPulse

# sys.exit()

pr.write(totalSystolic)
# pr.write(totalDiastolic)
# pr.write(totalPulse)

==========================

I know that totalSystolic is 1018, totalDiastolic is 469 and
totalPulse is 465.

I can not figure out why pr.write won't print out 1018 on paper.

Using Python 2.7 on Ubuntu 12.04.5 and using Geany to process the strip.

Thanks for your suggestion.

Ken
