Remove files of same type (extension)

[A.A]

You can use the fnmatch module to match using dos/unix like patterns:

for eachfile in os.listdir(FolderPath):
	if fnmatch.fnmatch(filename, '*.dat'):
		# delete file

(Obligatory) Warning: Be careful to use the right pattern, else you
might end up deleting other files !!!
