Hello Every One,
I create a list of coordinates of 2 lines.
X11,Y11 X12,Y12 as starting and ending of one line.
X21,Y21 X22, Y22 as starting and ending of the 2nd line.
Now is there any way to calculate the deflection angle between the two
lines? Will any modules be required other than Python

What happens if you specify the starting directory as a Unicode string,

Do you mean the word is the filename (use glob module)
or the word is inside the file (use os.walk)?
Amnd do you need an exact match or a wild card search.

Ok, In that case use the glob function in the glob module.
It returns a list of all files that match a pattern:

You create pickles with pickle.dump and you read them with pickle.load.
