+# Create named temporary file
+
+```python
+import tempfile
+
+def create_temp_file(prefix):
+    temp_file = tempfile.NamedTemporaryFile(prefix=prefix, delete=False)
+    temp_file.close()
+    return temp_file.name
+
+# Example usage
+prefix = "my_prefix"
+temp_file_path = create_temp_file(prefix)
+print("Temporary file created:", temp_file_path)
+```
+
+From the above code, note that the file path can be retrived with `temp_file.name`.
+
+## Access the file directory
+
+
+```python
+from pathlib import Path 
+
+temp_file = create_temp_file("my_prefix")
+path = Path(temp_file)
+print(path.parent)
