Issue With Renaming A Bunch Of Files In A Directory Using Python

import os def rename_files(): file_list = os.listdir(r'G:\Python_Learning\prank') print(file_list) saved_path =os.getcwd() print('Current work

Solution 1:

Use str.strip().

import os
defrename_files():
    file_list = os.listdir(r"G:\Python_Learning\prank")
    print(file_list)
    saved_path =os.getcwd()
    print("Current working directory is "+saved_path)
    os.chdir(r"G:\Python_Learning\prank")
    for file_name in file_list:
        os.rename(file_name,file_name.strip("0123456789"))
        os.chdir(saved_path)
rename_files()

Solution 2:

os.rename(file_name, file_name.strip("01234567789"))
