• Remove specific element from Python array/list by the element itself.

sampleList = ["1", "2", "3", "4", "one", "two", "three", "four"]
for e in sampleList:

    if e == "two": sampleList.remove(e)

print(sampleList)

• For the codes above the output will be.

["1", "2", "3", "4", "one", "three", "four"]

• In Python you can know whether an element in a os.listdir() array is a file or a directory/folder by using this codes.

os.path.isfile("example_file.txt") # This will return True.
os.path.isdir("example_folder") # This will return False.

• Here is a Python codes on how to normalize path name, os.path.normpath("path/name/here").
• Normalize is necessary to remove unnecessary symbol.
• After the string is normalized as a path string then I can do other operation.
• For example to find the last file/folder in the string path you can use this Python codes, os.path.basename(normalized_path). With this command I can return the last entry of a path.
• For example, a/b/c/d.text will return d.txt.
• Example on how to know a file extension from a path string.

fileName, fileExt = os.path.splitext(fldrOrFl)

print(fileName)
print(fileExt)

• Example codes on how to get a parent directory from the string path.

upperDir = None
for s in targDirArray:
    if upperDir == None: upperDir = s
    else: upperDir = upperDir + "/" + s
upperDirNorm = os.path.normpath(upperDir)

print(upperDirNorm)

• Example of reading lines in a file without encryption.

lines = md.readlines() # Line returned without new lines.
# Line returned without new lines.
# This is the preferred way.
lines = md.read().splitlines()
