Code #1: Use of os.path.isfile() method
# Python program to explain os.path.isfile() method # importing os module import os # Pathpath = '/home/User/Desktop/file.txt' # Check whether the # specified path is # an existing fileisFile = os.path.isfile(path)print(isFile) # Pathpath = '/home/User/Desktop/' # Check whether the # specified path is # an existing fileisFile = os.path.isfile(path)print(isFile) |
