hi i am trying to rename extension of files in a directory..as an initial step i made a method in
class ConvertFiles: def __init__(self,infldr,outfldr): self.infldr=infldr self.outfldr=outfldr self.origlist=os.listdir(infldr) .... def renamefiles(self,extn): for x in self.origlist: x=x+"."+extn ... later when i print self.origlist i find that the elements of list are unchanged..even tho a print x inside the renamefiles() shows that extn is appended to x .. why does this happen?
