〈List All Subdirectories And Files In Python, Then Assign Depth And Extensions.〉

Iterating a path to list all subdirectories and files is an extremely helpful function. You can read bulk excel files with several pretty simple codes. As a lazy guy like me, wrap it to a function make me write code effectively.

The code below seems huge, but it contains multiple pieces of functions. All of them are used to operate lists, and the main function to list paths and files is os_get_dir_list().
