At lest one of the filenames (or directories) being returned by
os.listdir doesn't have integer value where you are looking.
Remember that os.listdir returns subdirectories as well as files.
You may want to look at using glob.glob() instead and limit it
to *.asc.
Secondly,
filenames = [filename.lower() \
for filename in filenames \
if (filename[-4:].lower() == ".asc" and filename[0] != "-" )]
is better rewritten as (not tested):
import glob
filenames=glob.glob(os.path.join(gp.workspace, '*.asc'))
filenames = [f.lower() for f in filenames if not f.startswith('-')]
