Last Modified File in Python? -

so i'm trying write script allows me import modified file directory. i've looked @ glob , os.listdir commands don't seem (i errors). thoughts?

import os import glob newest = max(glob.iglob('directory name'), key=os.path.getctime) print newest f = open(newest,'r') 

i error:

max() arg empty sequence

would os.stat work better?

try:

newest = max(glob.iglob('directory name/*'), key=os.path.getctime)
