Yes, it was probably my fault. Sorry about that. I have come up with a
new way of working around
a problem in my main program so I only need two files to be tested if
they exist instead of say 10 files.
So, the program should check if two text files exist. If neither of them
exist, and only if neither of them,
then the program should print say "hi".
If only one of them exist, the program should continue to run without
crashing.
I hope this was more easy to understand!
The os.path.exists(filename) returns a boolean, and doesn't tie up
resources, so you are welcome to use it in an if expression.
if not (os.path.exists(file1) and os.path.exists(file2)):
print "hi"
