Question

Hi I am currently a beginner to the python language, it is also my first language too. I need some help I am finding it difficult to know what to use to generate permanent directories sub directories and files, for eg; I want the path to generate whatever path i enter if the directories etc. don’t exist, i want them created, so I enter C:\user\python\directory\sub-directory\file, then i cant workout what i should import to do the following job.

I am using Python 3.2, any advice?

You can do:

import os
os.makedirs('a/b/c', exist_ok=True)
