find folders by name and iterate through their names in python

You can use the os module and its listdir function to find folders by name in a directory. Here is an example:

main.py
import os

# Set the directory path
directory = '/path/to/directory'

# Set the folder name to search for
folder_name = 'my_folder'

# Iterate through the directory contents
for item in os.listdir(directory):
    # Combine the path with the item name
    item_path = os.path.join(directory, item)
    # Check if the item is a directory and the name matches
    if os.path.isdir(item_path) and item == folder_name:
        # Do something with the folder
        print(f'Found folder: {item}')
492 chars
17 lines

This code will iterate through all contents of the specified directory and check if each item is a directory with the specified name. If a matching folder is found, the code will print its name.
