Append a list into a csv file python

Question

I want to append a list into a csv file in python

listoflist = [rhyme_cnt[row],gaali_cnt,diversity[row]]

This list contains three variables and the code I'm using to write this is

with open('C:/Users/Samarth/Desktop/Minor/songlyrics/final.csv',"ab") as output:
    writer = csv.writer(output,lineterminator = '\n')
    writer.writerows(listoflist)
    writer.writerows([])

But I'm getting the following error

_csv.Error: iterable expected, not int

What am I doing wrong?

I found the answer. I had to change the writerows to writerow and change the open file method from 'ab' to 'a'
