HI,

is my version of code below correct?

import csv

import os

import datetime

dir_path = input("Enter the directory path to scan: ")

metadata_list = []

for filename in os.listdir(dir_path):

file_path = os.path.join(dir_path, filename)

if os.path.isfile(file_path):

size = os.path.getsize(file_path)

created_timestamp = os.path.getctime(file_path)

modified_timestamp = os.path.getmtime(file_path)

created_datetime = datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp(created_timestamp)

modified_datetime = datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp(modified_timestamp)

file_type = os.path.splitext(file_path)[1]

print(f"Path: {file_path}, Size: {size}, Created: {created_datetime}, Modified: {modified_datetime}, "

f"Type: {file_type}")

metadata_list.append([file_path, size, created_datetime, modified_datetime, file_type])

save_to_csv = input("Do you want to save the metadata to a CSV file? (Y/N): ")

if save_to_csv.lower() == "y":

csv_filename = "file_metadata_list.csv"

with open(csv_filename, 'w', newline='') as file:

writer = csv.writer(file)

writer.writerow(["Path", "Size (bytes)", "Created", "Modified", "Type"])

writer.writerows(metadata_list)

print(f"File metadata saved to {csv_filename}")

elif save_to_csv.lower() != 'n':

print("Invalid input, File metadata not saved.")

Hi, if it returns the expected output explained on the project page, then yes, it is correct. How was your output?
