>>> import os.path

Help on function splitext in module ntpath:
splitext(p)
Split the extension from a pathname.
Extension is everything from the last dot to the end, ignoring
leading dots. Returns "(root, ext)"; ext may be empty.
>>> os.path.splitext('test.txt')
('test', '.txt')
>>> os.path.splitext('test.txt')[0]
'test'
>>> os.path.splitext('test.txt')[0] + ".jpg"
'test.jpg'
