Deal With Python Directory | What Is Python Directory- Python Tutorial Help

A directory or folder is a collection of files and sub directories. Python has the os module. which provides us with many useful methods to work with directories (and files as well).

Use command :

>>>getcwd()

Example:

>>> import module

>>>os.getcwd()

Output:

'C:\\Program Files\\Py...'

Use print() to escape extra backspace.

Example:

>>> print(os.getcwd())

Output:

C:\Program Files\PyScripter

We can change the current working directory using the chdir() method.

Example:

>>> os.chdir('C:\\Python33')

>>> print(os.getcwd())

Output:

C:\Python33

Use method:

>>>listdir()

Example:

>>> os.listdir()

Output:

['DLLs','Doc','include','Lib','libs',... ]

Use method

>>> os.mkdir('test')

The rename() method can rename a directory or a file.

>>> os.listdir()

Output:

['test']

>>> os.rename('test','new') #rename "test" into "new"

A file can be removed (deleted) using the remove() method.

rmdir() used to remove empty directory.

Example:

>>> os.remove('file.txt')

Hope you understand the all the concept of file or directory.
