I'm trying to print out the filename of files in my folder but unfortunately when I print it out it comes out as - Image is ././Image_crop 4.jpg - how do I get rid of the ././ in front of the file? I'm new to python so please help!

for filename in glob.glob(os.path.join(".", '*.jpg')):
    y = os.path.join(".", filename)
    print "Image is ", y

  • Change `y = os.path.join(".", filename)` to `y = filename`? And if you want to get rid of both, also change `os.path.join(".", '*.jpg')` to `'*.jpg'`? – Aran-Fey Jun 11 '18 at 10:58

    If you just want the actual filename: Have look at [os.path.basename](https://docs.python.org/2/library/os.path.html#os.path.basename) - But why are you joining the "." in the first place? – Sebastian Loehner Jun 11 '18 at 10:59
  • You should just stop to put the `./` in front of the actual glob. You put one in in the first line and one in the second. – Klaus D. Jun 11 '18 at 11:36

Try this : 

print os.path.basename(filename)

It will remove the path and give you the actual filename only. See Extract file name from path, no matter what the os/path format for more info.
