python import all files in directory
# Basic syntax: import glob # Package for Unix-style pathname pattern expansion import os # Python operating system interface directory = '/path/to/directory/with/files/' # Obtain list of filenames that end in .txt in the directory all_files = glob.glob(os.path.join(directory, "*.txt")) # Where os.path.join creates the os-specific path to each file # Import data however you like. To append data in a single pandas # dataframe and a single list, you can do: your_list = [ ] for filename in all_files: dataframe = pd.read_csv(filename, index_col=None, header=0, sep="t") your_list.append(dataframe)
