Or use the regular module:
import re
import os
for filename in os.listdir('.'):
if re.match("*HV*", filename):
# do something with the file
The regular expression should be ".*HV.*", although:
re.search("HV", filename)
would be better and:
"HV" in filename.upper()
would be even better, as Alf posted.

I learned that I can check the existence of a file using
os.path.isfile("filename").
What if I need to check if there is a file that contains "HV"
in the
filename? What should I do?
<code>
from __future__ import print_function
import os
for filename in os.listdir( "." ):
if "HV" in filename.upper():
print( filename )
</code>
Cheers & hth.,
