i want to check if a dir does not exist. how do i change this
statement
to evaluate is NOT existing? ==False or ! operator. Also, is
sys.exit
appropriate to use to quit out of the program?
if(os.access(target_dir, os.F_OK)):
print "File does not exist!"
sys.exit
if not os.access(target_dir, os.F_OK):
print "File does not exist!"
sys.exit
Should work. Although you claim a file does not exist but
seem to be testing a directory?!
Also did you see the os.path.exists() function?
You might find that useful.
