6.1 os -- Miscellaneous operating system interfaces

This module provides a more portable way of using operating system 
dependent functionality than importing a operating system dependent 
built-in module like posix or nt.

6.1.4 Files and Directories

walk( top[, topdown=True [, onerror=None]])

walk() generates the file names in a directory tree, by walking the tree 
either top down or bottom up. For each directory in the tree rooted at 
directory top (including top itself), it yields a 3-tuple (dirpath, 
dirnames, filenames).
