In this example, you will learn to check the file size.
To understand this example, you should have the knowledge of the following Python programming topics:
1. Example 1: Using os module
import os
file_stat = os.stat('my_file.txt')
print(file_stat.st_size)
Output
34
Using stat() from the os module, you can get the details of a file. Use the st_size attribute of stat() method to get the file size.
The unit of the file size is byte.
2. Example 2: Using pathlib module
from pathlib import Path
file = Path('my_file.txt')
print(file.stat().st_size)
Output
34
Using the pathlib module, you can do the same thing as shown above. The unit of the file size is byte.
