@@gingerboy9170 must have thought of another language. I just kinda assumed it worked like that well that's just a good example of why you need to run your code before correcting people on the internet.
Wow, I know little about Python but this is about the first tutorial I've seen posted which didn't swamp me with jargon and show me tiresome tasks like counting the letters of my name. Instead, it showed what Python can do that is useful. Really interesting. Thanks for posting - you've restored my interest again.
Wowwww...it blew me off...one of the best videos i have ever seen. The tempo of delivering it and the quick way you wrote the codes and executed them shows the level of mastery you have. Hats off and thanks a lot @Corey.
I must say this is top tier content even 8 years later its useful for many people out there... just wanted to let you know that this is amazing and never ever stop making us learn through practical implementation ~ THANK YOU COREY
This is My First Comment on TH-cam in 4 years of Usage. Never felt like Commenting. But for the first time, Salute to you Corey Schafer for such brilliant Tutorials!
OMFG! Besides the great teaching through simple instruction, I'VE NEVER SEEN SIMULTANEOUS TYPING BEFORE! AMAZING! MIND BLOWN! Seriously, I can't stop smiling.
Gabriel Sena de Souza sure, just click in one place, then hold down Ctrl and click in another place. On some environments it might be Alt or another key, instead of Ctrl.
1) Almost exactly what I needed to organize my photos (hundreds of them). 2) Learnt several new things in a 12 min video. Thank you so much for sharing!!! Greetings from Brazil.
This is exactly what any developer would dream to do with any programming language, thats is to automate daily routine and manual work. Thanks for making video so concise and would love to see more such videos in future.
@Corey Schafer, I am doing lot of PERL for long time, wanted to master Python. Like you know, only learning all tutorials in the world does not give confidence to solve real world problems like this. I am REALLY glad that you took efforts in uploading this beautiful simple script. Any videos on practical issues ALWAYS welcome and much appreciated !!!
Outstanding! Even TWO Years after you posted this, this video is extremely helpful and adding value. Will check out your other stuff. Like your style. Thanks.
BIG THANKS!! I've just started learning python without any programming background. Your videos and the way you explain Different steps helped me very much. Also your real life scenarios motivates me not to stop mastering Python. Thanks again.
Please keep doing this type of video! There is a time for longer theory or syntax videos, but this was perfect to walk through solving a real problem. Keep as much detail in as possible while explaining your decisions for what you are doing. It helped immensely to hear your thought process and see how you used print at various steps to confirm proper function of results you wanted. Well done.
This was a really entertaining tutorial that I can actually use. You were straight to the point and werent talking about other stuff that dragged on. I really liked how you did the side-by-side to show the up to date changes. Thanks and please do more tutorials like this.
I would watch your tutorials a hundred times without being bored or tired. Your tutorials ara extremely helpful and interesting. Thanks A LOT for sharing them. Please continue this.
Love it--no unnecessary talk and explanations--you cut to the chase. I wish more learning videos can be as concise so as to keep the flow going--realizing that people can pause and cross reference things that are not clear. Thanks for the education.
Corey, this, 6 years later, is the brilliant, "here's how", high signal, quick videos should be done. I hope everybody doing YT videos gets to see this as a text book example of what to aspire to. Super helpful and allowed me to back away from glob for this type of actions. Well done.
Awesome video, man. I've watched dozens of videos about Python on youtube, and yours are consistently the clearest, most concise, and informative. Please keep making more!
This was exactly what I was looking for, as a newbie in Python, I have hundreds of pictures saved from old mobiles, cameras etc and stored on a hard drive. Have been putting off tidying them and sorting them for almost 3 years, but thanks to your great tutorial, this will save me hours if not days of work. Thank you and please post more of these helpful videos, for us Newbies learning Python, who don't want to watch "Learn to code Python, length of video 9 hours" !!! just to spend the first 5 hours downloading and customising our IDE and type "Hello World" . We want quick easy practical get your hands dirty type vidoes that last no more then 5 to 15 mins, because our attention span is limited due to the magpie effect of shiny things distracting us. Thanks again.
This is the true essence of programming. Most of the videos out there just focus on the syntax part without any demonstration of how this knowledge of a programming language can be harnessed to make life easier on an individual scale. They only deal with how to crack interviews etc. I would love to watch more of these videos
Wow, I have been trying to find an example to rename a file for weeks. I tried Bash, Perl, and ran across this one this morning, and within 30 minutes had exactly what I needed, and it WORKED!!! Thank You very much. Now the fun part, getting it to not fail when old files already renamed are still there. Hoping the next step template to move the file to SFTP will actually delete the file so it wont fail.
Corey, this kind of videos is very useful. Please continue to provide tutorials based on real world challenges !!! There is nothing better than getting educated in programming based on those !
I've only just discovered your TH-cam channel, Corey, and this is another great video; easy to follow and well explained. I have followed along, then written a reverse script to put the files back in their original order. I've also duplicated both scripts using Paths from the pathlib module. Your instruction makes this so easy to do - thanks
I'm so surprised the only normal video that actually teaches you to how to do it, and not only copy-paste is from 2015 and has such a low amount of likes and views. WHY? Thank you so much, I'm glad I found you. Probably saved me a day of reading just to understand what I understood from this video in 15 minutes
Such an AWESOME video! This really brings all your previous videos together and show us how Python can be used to fix repetitive tasks in our everyday lives. Please do more of these!
WOW!!!! You have explained this in an amazingly easy to understand manner. If I didn't already have a son I would have named my first born after you! But really, this was super helpful. THANK YOU
F'n brilliant. I've been wanting to take a look at Python but never took the plunge. This is a really practical example that has made me realise that I've been missing out. A big thank you, including the incredibly clear and well paced presentation. Subbed.
It was very helpful. In fact when a programming language is put to test to solve real-life problems with efficiency, it motivates the learner to carry on learning. Thank you Corey.
Thanks for brilliant tutorials. I really like them and please keep on doing them! Just a quick note for records: If you did f_name.split(' - ') instead of f_name.split('-') you wouldn't need to .strip() f_title/course/num
That works here but I would do it as in the video in case the space was omitted or if there were more than one space by mistake in any of the filenames.
Yes. these real life videos are really helpful as well. You are doing an amazing job with this channel. It takes talent/skill, patience and motivation to be a great teacher and an inspirer. You have a knack for teaching things that are easily understandable. Kudos. Keep them coming. Thanks.
at first sorry for my English.... I'm come from Germany. German people's like only his mother language. Thank you for your video tutorials here at TH-cam... What should I say... your videos are so helpful and easy to understand, that's so great. I hope we will see a lot of other Python video's here. I bought few Python books written in German but I have to say pity I bought this books. they cost me a lot of money but the books are not really helping to learn Python. they make me only confused. but now I found your video's... some of the things I have read are clear now coz of your videos. Thank you so much. Greetings from germany
Was looking for something else, but just decided to watch this for learning purposes only. I got say you're really good dude. very insightful. I like how you kept it clear and concise. Great Work!
As an intern, my job was to rename boring stuff nobody wants to do, I did that manually for a week, I wish I saw this before, haha! I was so motivated to learn programming after that internship so here I am, damn, thank you Sir!
This was awesome. I’m a few weeks into learning python and this is the first real world example of what it can quickly do that I’ve come across and I was able to follow all of it! I don’t know much about the module you imported (OS) but this was super encouraging to know that I could figure this out with my existing skillset. Great video, thanks for posting!
This was immensely helpful !!! I was stuck trying to truncate file names through a loop but your systematic approach helped me figure this out. Much appreciated
Another way to transform f_num from '#5' to '5' (at around 8:40 ) would be f_name.strip('#') Great video , and I especially like the methodical step-by-step (with printing just to check what we have achieved-so-far) approach up to the final solution.
9:40 That z-fill trick is very helpful. I was confused for a long time as to why it was adding 0 to all the numbers except for 10. (I was thinking, 'z-fill is set to 2, so shouldn't it take both digits from 10 and turn it to 00?') But I finally realised that z-fill only fills the characters that DON'T EXIST and turns them to 0. So since 10 is the only f_num with 2 digits, it remains the same, while all the others get a 0 added. Neat solution!
Wow, I was looking for this sort of thing. My use case was that I had 114 audio files for each 'surah' in the Quran and I used to do this manually to arrange it sequentially for a playlist, like 001 etc. Thanks a lot Corey, you are a gem !
Have watched a lot of your work. Great stuff. The real life task is a good format and the tips along the way like, ‘one step, test’ are useful too. Thanks for your contributions to the community.
Brilliant! This is one of the main reasons I'm learning Python. I'm no dev but there are things I need Python to do to save my sanity at work. I do a lot of ETL to Excel and have to handle loads of garbage file names. Thanks
This is so well presented. And timely (ha! it's a video from 2015) because I'm attacking a messy folder of music files and this is on point. Love that he say to work through it iterating as you go, it seems more approachable that way.
Super useful! Thank you very much! I would absolutely love to see more of this kind of videos. Seeing how you approach the problem and the process you go through in real life in order to solve it, certainly is tremendously helpful to those who are still new to programming.
this is exactly what I wanted to do long time ago. I renamed my files by right clicking -> "rename". Thank you Corey. If only I knew your course back then..
Thanks Corey, this tutorial was very helpful! I added the following :) directory = raw_input("Please Enter directory path. macOS - Drag folder (directory) into terminal: ") os.chdir(directory) for f in os.listdir(directory):
The first thing I did immediately after watching the video is LIKE it....really nice video tells us how we can use python in our day to day life. Make more of these kind of videos.
Hi Corey, excellent video. You asked if we like these. It is an excellent video and I love it. Your tutorial here has a lot of great practical applications, which is something that many videos lack. Great job, again!
@Corey, Excellent work. Found it very helpful. Am taking a MOOC(Coursera) and was looking for a understanding of parsing and slicing through lists. And this very practical approach just filled the spot. Also need to mention that am new to programming, yet the level of demonstration was just right. Thank you. And I'll be glad to repost this video. If you liked making videos like this one please bring them to the light.
Whoa, I used to do similar stuff, but did not know about zfill() Such a wonderful thing it is. Way more readable, laconic encapsulation than the mere condition I used.
@corey, that was one of the BEST python videos I've seen! Thank you! p.s. your trick with typing on three lines at once was awesome! Never seen that anywhere.
I watched this video months ago. Just this past week I spent 2 days trying to figure this out reading pathlib documentation etc. This fixed in a few minutes what I was struggling with for a few days. In my case, I'll take the file name, run a SQL query and use that result to change the filename. I feel silly but thank you so much!!
You're the best, man!! I had just started looking for Python Automation and came across one of the best tutorials in the first place. Great, calm way of explaining things, crystal clear. Thanks a lot, keep creating such content.
Thank you! This was my first experience with any scripiting and I was able to understand and apply what you showed in this video. Thanks for making Python not the hardest thing I've tried to learn.
Thanks so much for this tutorial. I have just startet learning python and wanted something to change the names of some pdf files i need to sort in my job. This will save me tons of hours of searching a solution and even more time at work. Thanks very much
Perfect, Thanks to you and others good people like you i can code in python, 6 months and already doing my own networking tools for my job, so THANK YOU
awesome video! love to see more python examples in practical use. it's very helpful...using python to solve everyday problems like this is a great way to learn the language i think. more like this would be great!
This small tutorial is one of my favorite. Mr. Schafer's instruction is so clear, so precise, and the content is so useful. Each step he explained with extremely clear logic, very easy to understand and very easy to follow. I wish Corey could provide us more of this type of real Python usage examples. I will keep this tutorial and go to as many as others that Corey Schafer presented on TH-cam. Thank you so much, Corey.
For the lower level viewers here like myself these are helpful to understand the basic applications of python. Also they are directly useful in most roles at work. I'm already thinking about those massive directories at work that could use some housekeeping.
8 years later this video is still useful, keep up the good work man, and thanks for these types of videos.
While True:
print("God Bless You for your time and effort")
I'd suggest adding
at the end so instead of:
God Bless You for your time and effortGod Bless You for your time and effortGod Bless You for your time and effort
You'll get:
God Bless You for your time and effort
God Bless You for your time and effort
God Bless You for your time and effort
It's a lot neater that way.

It is a special feature of Sublime Text that he is using.
can also do it in Jupyter Notebooks
I nearly wept when I saw that.
Gabriel Sena de Souza sure, just click in one place, then hold down Ctrl and click in another place. On some environments it might be Alt or another key, instead of Ctrl.
In Pycharm ⌘ + ⇧ + 8 (Mac) gets you in multi-edit mode. Then Hold Shift up/down/left/right to select multiple areas.

This was immensely helpful !!! I was stuck trying to truncate file names through a loop but your systematic approach helped me figure this out. Much appreciated
Another way to transform f_num from '#5' to '5' (at around 8:40 ) would be

I ran into the very same problem today. Thanks a lot for the great video.
This is excellent. Thanks Corey for showing us the way to solve these things through Python. Would like to see more of this kind 😍
Thanks so much for this tutorial. I have just startet learning python and wanted something to change the names of some pdf files i need to sort in my job.
This will save me tons of hours of searching a solution and even more time at work. Thanks very much
This is a very cool project. I'm binge watching these vids right now and loving them.
Perfect, Thanks to you and others good people like you i can code in python, 6 months and already doing my own networking tools for my job, so THANK YOU
Awesome. That's good to hear. And thanks!
I am beyond words. Thank you for the tutorial.. i am only halfway through a python basics course, but man, i aspire to be this good someday.
Perfect Tutorial. No doubt Learned Multiple functions and concepts in 1 video
Buddy... Best text parsing video for beginners. Lots of things brought to light.
Great, I've watched a few of your videos and you have a knack for explaining things well. Thanks for the videos, they're great!
sir please keep adding such videos for learners like me to feel the problems and tackle them.
I am not able to control my HAPPINESS Thank you Sir
.
awesome video! love to see more python examples in practical use. it's very helpful...using python to solve everyday problems like this is a great way to learn the language i think. more like this would be great!
Thank you, your practical approach to the subject is amazing!
This small tutorial is one of my favorite. Mr. Schafer's instruction is so clear, so precise, and the content is so useful. Each step he explained with extremely clear logic, very easy to understand and very easy to follow. I wish Corey could provide us more of this type of real Python usage examples. I will keep this tutorial and go to as many as others that Corey Schafer presented on TH-cam. Thank you so much, Corey.
For the lower level viewers here like myself these are helpful to understand the basic applications of python. Also they are directly useful in most roles at work. I'm already thinking about those massive directories at work that could use some housekeeping.
This was excellent! And just what I needed to rename and edit over 50,000 song files. Thank you.
