whats the purpose of . . / that we wrote before the path?
Can we write a path like this on the terminal too or is it just a python way of writing it?
apart from this, one more thing:-
for example dir structure is like data/my codes/script.py
and im in data dir. If i want to run my script from data dir itself what do i write in the terminal after ‘python’ keyword?
Hey @muditarya31, ../ is used to refer to a directory(folder) which is previous to the directory you are currently in. So if your directory structure is data/my codes/script.py and you are currently in the data folder , then you first need to go inside the my codes folder to be able to run the script.py . You can go to the my codes folder using the change directory(cd) command. You can check your current directory using pwd command. Once you are inside my codes folder, you can simply use python script.py to run your script.
Hope this helps you understand !
