As part of my studies in my python I have been trying
to write a program that will go to a directory and
search all the files :-
This is the code :-
def change_dir():
y = '/home/david/Documents/pyprogamming/test/'
try:
os.chdir(y)
print "line 53"
list_of_files = os.listdir(y)
print "line 55"
for file in list_of_files:
print "line 57"
linesone = open_files(file)
getlineinfo(linesone)
print file
print "Directory", y,"does exist"
except:
print y, "does not exist"
However despite the fact that :-
a) I have imported os
b) The directory exists
I get the message :-
'/home/david/Documents/pyprogamming/test/ does not
exist'
However it does ?
Can any one help ?
