Okay I'm having trouble not only with the problem itself but even with trying to explain my question. I have a directory tree consisting of about 7 iterations, so: rootdir/a/b/c/d/e/f/destinationdir
The thing is some may have 5 subdirectory levels and some may have as many as ten, such as:
rootdir/a/b/c/d/destinationdir
or:
rootdir/a/b/c/d/e/f/g/h/destinationdir
The only thing they have in common is that the destination directory is always named the same thing. The way I'm using the glob function is as follows:
for path in glob.glob('/rootdir/*/*/*/*/*/*/destinationdir'):
--- os.system('cd {0}; do whatever'.format(path))
However, this only works for the directories with that precise number of intermediate subdirectories. Is there any way for me not to have to specify that number of subdirectories(asterices); in other words having the function arrive at the destinationdir no matter what the number of intermediate subdirectories is, and allowing me to iterate through them. Thanks a lot!
