Re: Data Transmission Crash Course Required
Thank you both for the suggestions. I will look into both of them, as I am eager to learn new things about Python. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
os.walk trouble
As my first Python script, I am trying to make a program that recurses a directory searching for files whose names match a pattern. I have a basic idea of what the regexp would look like (and I can get more information about that), but I am stuck with incorrect understanding of os.walk. I've tried: root, dirs, files = os.walk(dirname) but it fails for some reason. I have seen this done before in the tutorial (I think it's called sequence unpacking). What is the proper way to do this? Thanks in advance. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Well, it ain't that simple, but the suggestion is helpful, since I am
only a beginner. Thanks for everything, friends, now this aspect is
clear to me.
