| 2 | os.path.basename(path) Returns the base name of pathname path. |
| 3 | os.path.commonprefix(list) Returns the longest path prefix (taken character-by-character) that is a prefix of all paths in list. |
| 4 | os.path.dirname(path) Returns the directory name of pathname path. |
| 5 | os.path.exists(path) Returns True if path refers to an existing path. Returns False for broken symbolic links. |
| 6 | os.path.lexists(path) Returns True if path refers to an existing path. Returns True for broken symbolic links. |
| 7 | os.path.expanduser(path) On Unix and Windows, returns the argument with an initial component of ~ or ~user replaced by that user's home directory. |
| 8 | os.path.expandvars(path) Returns the argument with environment variables expanded. |
| 9 | os.path.getatime(path) Returns the time of last access of path. |
| 10 | os.path.getmtime(path) Returns the time of last modification of path. |
| 11 | os.path.getctime(path) Returns the system's ctime, which on some systems (like Unix) is the time of the last change, and, on others (like Windows), is the creation time for path. |
| 12 | os.path.getsize(path) Returns the size, in bytes, of path. |
| 13 | os.path.isabs(path) Returns True if path is an absolute pathname. |
| 14 | os.path.isfile(path) Returns True if path is an existing regular file. |
| 15 | os.path.isdir(path) Returns True if path is an existing directory. |
| 16 | os.path.islink(path) Returns True if path refers to a directory entry that is a symbolic link. |
| 17 | os.path.ismount(path) Returns True if pathname path is a mount point: a point in a file system where a different file system has been mounted. |
| 18 | os.path.join(path1[, path2[, ...]]) Joins one or more path components intelligently. |
| 19 | os.path.normcase(path) Normalizes the case of a pathname. |
| 20 | os.path.normpath(path) Normalizes a pathname. |
| 21 | os.path.realpath(path) Returns the canonical path of the specified filename, eliminating any symbolic links encountered in the path |
| 22 | os.path.relpath(path[, start]) Returns a relative filepath to path either from the current directory or from an optional start point. |
| 23 | os.path.samefile(path1, path2) Returns True if both pathname arguments refer to the same file or directory |
| 24 | os.path.sameopenfile(fp1, fp2) Returns True if the file descriptors fp1 and fp2 refer to the same file. |
| 25 | os.path.samestat(stat1, stat2) Returns True if the stat tuples stat1 and stat2 refer to the same file. |
| 26 | os.path.split(path) Splits the pathname path into a pair, (head, tail) where tail is the last pathname component and head is everything leading up to that. |
| 27 | os.path.splitdrive(path) Splits the pathname path into a pair (drive, tail) where drive is either a drive specification or the empty string. |
| 28 | os.path.splitext(path) Splits the pathname path into a pair (root, ext) such that root + ext == path, and ext is empty or begins with a period and contains at most one period. |
| 29 | os.path.walk(path, visit, arg) Calls the function visit with arguments (arg, dirname, names) for each directory in the directory tree rooted at path (including path itself, if it is a directory). |
