It's up to you where you want to set the redirection to append to the file. If you want to overwrite the file each time, you can perform a file open with:-

is assigned to the first variable var, the second field to the second variable var, and so forth. If there are more fields than there are
specified var operands, the remaining fields and their intervening separators are assigned to the last var. If there are more vars than
fields, the remaining vars are set to empty strings.
The setting of variables specified by the var operands affect the current shell execution environment.
Standard input to can be redirected from a text file.
Since affects the current shell execution environment, it is usually provided as a normal shell special (built-in) command. Thus, if it is

printf "%s %s
" "$yy" "$xx"
done < input_file
