Python os module question 1
Last Updated :
Discuss
Comments
What is the key difference between os.mkdir("path") and os.makedirs("path")
os.mkdir() can create multiple directories at once, while os.makedirs() can only create one.
os.makedirs() can create intermediate directories recursively, while os.mkdir() cannot.
os.mkdir() will not raise an error if a directory exists, but os.makedirs() will.
There is no functional difference; os.makedirs() is just an alias for os.mkdir().
