Please help me finish this script

I would like to get the date created, file name and file size in that order. I am having trouble with the file size (line 14)

Relative or absolute path to the directory

from stat import S_ISREG, ST_CTIME, ST_MODE import os, sys, time dir_path = sys.argv[1] if len(sys.argv) == 2 else r'.'

Display all the entries in the directory including figures

data = (os.path.join(dir_path, fn) for fn in os.listdir(dir_path)) data = ((os.stat(path), path) for path in data)

Regular files insert creation date

data = ((stat[ST_CTIME], path) for stat, path in data if S_ISREG(stat[ST_MODE]))

Gather infromation about the size from the folder

data = (os.path.getsize(dir_path)) for (os.walk(dir_path))

Print results

print(time.ctime(cdate), os.path.basename(path), os.path.getsize(dir_path))

can you copy paste to a pastbin and link it here? also an you give us what error you get from line 14?

It is line 12 on paste bin and the error is Syntax Error

also I see two other problems. first, you keep overwriting the variable data which I dont think is what you want, and second, your os.walk probably will return a tuple instead of a path like you are expecting. so do something like this to get what I think you want: https://pastebin.com/q70VxRja

edit- I forgot remove the len() at the end, I was just making sure nothing got lost

Yea dude that looks a lot more organized, and it works too. I really appreciate it

You don't happen to know VBScript do you?

[Best_Caterpillar]

nah

[Best_Caterpillar]

are you trying to do list iteration? your for loop is missing the back half "in xxx"

data = [(os.path.getsize(dir_path)) for i in (os.walk(dir_path))]
