Day 10 - Files - Create, Read & Download

In 30 Days of Python, I'll teach you the fundamentals of Python. We created this series as an introduction to programming with Python.

Why Python? It's a very popular way to writing computer programs and automations with board applications: SpaceX & NASA use it to launch rockets, Tesla with autonomous driving, Instagram as a web app backend, Intel to pilot drones/UAVs, and many many others.

What you can do with Python is nearly endless:

Run powerful web applications
Fly drones and launch rockets
Run autonomous robots like drones and self-driving cars
Build connected systems with Arduino and Raspberry PI
Automate business intelligences and perform financial analysis
Machine learning including deep learning
And many more ways
That list is fancy but don't let it scare you. Python is just a tool for writing a series of step-by-step automation rules and that's exactly what software is: a collection of rules for a computer to follow.

The right tools in the right hands can impact the world in such amazing ways.

Shakespeare had very few tools for writing plays and yet he continues to influence our entertainment despite being long gone. Creativity mixed with the right tools can transform how we do everything or why we do it.

That's why I want to teach you this tool. The world needs your creatively, your perspective, your project.

Let's do this!

Dude your tuts are so in-depth, which is an awesome thing!!!! Thanks for sharing!

[briankoech]

Awesome work. Thanks a lot. The last return should be dl_path.

[neerajkhadagade]

For Windows, there's another way, too, which I prefer. While mentioning the file path, instead of typing single back-slash (\), type double back-slash (\\).
Eg: email_txt = "templates\\email.txt"
Hope this helps!

32:29 “return new_dl_path?” I believe should be “return dl_path”

[chuckmaddox]

[GeoPoly]

Why do you use terminal to run the codes?
Why not use the "run" in VS code? It takes much less time

what is the difference between wget, request, urllib, imageio modules wrt downloading number of files and type of files.

[johnpattwell]

Love the tutorials and I have been following along with all of them and used them to reference projects that I am working on. I am however having an issue with the path for this on windows. I tried the os.path.join way that you showed and got a FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'templates\\email.txt' error. I also tried the way Neeraj recommended below and it still doesn't seem to work. Files are set up in the same path that you showed in the video. Any suggestions on what might be wrong?

Hey Justin, I created a dir using exist_ok=true, but i cant delete it using os.rmdir() .Any idea WHY?Thanks for the content as always it's amazing!

[nehalbafna]

Sir, how to download image that starts with data://.. ? can we download them using request module?

[danhao]

I'm using windows, with python3.8.3. It's strange that the shell reported error every time when I wrote the path in the first time. So I have to delete something and save and run, and after the shell report error again, i added the deleted things back, and it can run successfully...
