I have a list of txt files that contain daily rainfall for many years.
They are set out like:
r20110101.txt
r20110102.txt
r20110103.txt
and so on for each day for many years.

MainFolder=r"E:/Rainfalldata/"
outputFolder=r"E:/test/"
for (path, dirs, files) in os.walk(MainFolder):

If the files are all in a single folder you might be better using glob.glob() rather than os.walk. You can pass a filename pattern
like *.txt to glob(). This might make it easier to group the
files by year... 2010*.txt for example.

You can do it with walk too its just a bit more effort. But if the files are in multiple folders walk() is probably better.
