I have been able to do both but not together!<br>
When I try to select my files within the dir loop nothing comes up, but<br>
when I leave the files outside the dir loops it selects all the files<br>
not just the ones in the dirs I have selected.<br>
The code I am using is:<br>
<br>
import os<br>
<br>
MainFolder=r"D:/samples/"<br>
<br>
for (path, dirs, files) in os.walk(MainFolder):<br>
for dir in dirs:<br>
if dir=='01':<br>
print "selected directories are:",dir<br>
<br>
for ncfile in dir:<br>
if ncfile[-3:]=='.nc':<br>
print "ncfiles are:", ncfile<br>
<br>
Any feedback will be greatly appreciated!!<br>
