The screenshot shown represents a series of folders and subfolders created instantaneously by running a Python Script. This is a great time saver and I wish I had known this information last semester when I painstakingly created my class folders manually!
Our task this week was
quite straightforward. I downloaded the
specified .py file from the R: drive and placed it on my S: drive. After right-clicking and choosing edit, I
reviewed the contents of the script and then closed the window. I ran the script by double-clicking rather
than choosing run from within Pythonwin.
Once I saw the words process complete in the interface window I checked
my Windows Explorer and noted that the 12 folders and respective sub-folders
had been created. A great tool I will
modify and use in the future. As an
extra back-up and because I cannot access eLearning (during my lunch hour) from
my office PC, I use my C drive on my laptop to complete my assignments and then
copy those to the S: and H: drives. I
liked the ease of the CreateModuleFolders.py script; consequently, I modified
it so that it created the same directory and folder structure on my laptop’s C:
drive. This will make uploading to my S
and H drives very easy. Because I often
work locally, I downloaded and installed Pythonwin on my laptop.
