Check if file or directory exist

[assia]

Hello,
How can i check if file or directory exist as /sd for example? It does not work with :

os.path.isfile(filename)

The most pythonish way is to assume that the file file or directory exists. A simple approach could be:

try:
    os.stat(filename)
    #if here file or dir exists
except:
    #if here file or dir does not exist

Try os.stat(path) or os.listdir([dir])
