Hi Johnny,
This is actually two questions:
1.) How do I concatenate strings
2.) How do I concatenate pathnames?
Answers:
1.)
>>> download_dir="C:/download/"
>>> filename="log.txt"
>>> path_to_file=download_dir+filename
>>> path_to_file
'C:/download/log.txt'
2.)
>>> import os
>>> filename='log.txt'
>>> path_to_file = os.path.join("C:/download",filename)
>>> path_to_file
'C:/download/log.txt'
Help on function join in module posixpath:
join(a, *p)
Join two or more pathname components, inserting '/' as needed
Hope it helps,
Cameron.
