Hello, I read some files name from a directory and then I put these name in a list. I will check whether it is empty or not, and I would do it with an exception. With if statement it is very simple:
If list_of_files != "" : # this can be if list_of_files != []: get the files elas: there is no file But with exception, I can write something as: try: list_of_files != [] get the files except ValueError: Print " there is no file" What can the first statement be inside 'try' if I don't want to use if statement? Maybe my understandig of exception is enough to got it. Would somebody explain me about this? Regards, Nader try and except in a dircMaybe this quetion will be simple enough for you. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
