Hello friends,
How do we carry out the command "*cd ..*" in
python?
os.chdir, like so:
>>> os.getcwd()
'/home/tyler'
>>> os.chdir("../")
>>> os.getcwd()
'/home'
So you could do something like: os.chdir("../foo")
My problem is :
I have a set of folders say m=1,2,3,4. In each of these folders, I
have subfolders with common name say m_5,m_6,m_7,m_8. In each of these
subfolder, there is a file which I have edit.

1_5, 1_6, 1_7, 1_8 2_5
,2_6, 2_7, 2_8 3_5, 3_6, 3_7, 3_8 4_5, 4_6, 4_7, 4_8
That is how I designed it
When I run my script, it follows the route 1 ---> 1_5-----> do the
edit job in the file. Now it need to change the subfolder from 1_5 to
1_6, which is not happening.
I created the folders using variable like m for folder taking values
1,2,3,4 and m_n for subfolders with n=5,6,7,8.
I am trying with os.chdir(path), but stuck with how to use m_n in it.
What I am missing at the moment is something that do the job "cd .." does.
Any help
Karan
