Personally, one of the simplest projects yet This code (when properly indented) helps to list out all files with a size greater than the given limit.   # Usage python big.py limit in MB import sys import os if len(sys.argv) >= 2: limit = sys.argv[1] if len(sys.argv) == 3: source = sys.argv[2] else: source = […]

As usual… super simple automation.. I know it is quite trivial, but the fact that with a few lines of code I could re-organize my files based on their extensions makes coding really fun even outside of work. Code # selective copy # walks through a folder tree and searches for files with a certain […]

Just my solution to the project I found the solution to the project provided in the book really good, but it zipped the entire folder structure in the absolute path. Something I am not pleased with. By adding the filepath base name to the zipfile.Zipfile.write() function, after the absolute file path (of the file to […]

With this script we can make a new directory and move files with a given ending into the directory. This was not a task in the book, but just something I thought of solving. Quite interesting to know what you could do with string operations like “startWith” and “endWith”. # creates new directory and moves […]

Searching through a list of text files in a given directory … I personally found this enjoyable. It was easier to solve compared to last problem. What I can say at this stage is, learn how to search to documentation and google! It helps… heheh.. oh yea, leave your suggestions in the comment box. see […]

Creating MadLib:   It was quite a task to solve this problem but worth it. I learned how to retrieve command line arguments using sys module, regex to match and search for the keyword in a given string, and os to create new files and open files.  I think a step further would be to […]

If you came all the way from part 1, you should get the book: Functional JavaScript In the last post, we learned about Closures and Scopes. Today, we are addressing Higher Order Functions – Let’s do this! Higher Order Function A first-class function takes a function as an argument returns a function as a result […]

Remember the Book: Functional JavaScript   So chapter 3 right?…hm Scopes From my understanding, where a variable lives, while the extent of a scope means how long a variable holds a value. Global Scope This has the longest lifespan when you declare a variable without the var, you are defining a global variable (accessible to […]
