I'm trying to figure out how to ensure that Python can read files saved in a specific directory. What are the best practices or methods to do this?

To make sure Python can read files from a directory, first check that the directory path is correct and that you have the necessary permissions. You can use the `os` module to navigate directories and confirm that the files exist before trying to read them. Just remember to use the correct mode ('r' for reading) when you open the files!
It sounds like your question might need a bit more context. Have you tried using absolute paths? That usually helps prevent any confusion about where Python is looking for files. Also, providing specific details on what error you're encountering would help others assist you better!
Thanks for the tip! I haven't used absolute paths yet, so I'll try that.
