Loop through all CSV files in a folder

Question

I'm trying to loop through only the csv files in a folder that contains many kinds of files and many folders, I just want it to list all of the .csv files in this folder.

Here's what I mean:

import os, sys  path = "path/to/dir" dirs = os.listdir(path)  for file in dirs:     if file == '*.csv':         print file 

I know there is no wildcard variable in python, but is there a way of doing this?

Use the glob module: http://docs.python.org/2/library/glob.html

import glob path = "path/to/dir/*.csv" for fname in glob.glob(path):     print(fname)
