That's great, thanks. When you say "ask for help", could I just ask you? I'm not sure how to do that.

I'm trying to get a list of all the files in a directory, and I'm using the following code:

```
import os

files = os.listdir(directory)
```

But I'm getting an error:

```
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'listdir'
```

I'm using Python 3.6.1.

- You need to import the os module:

```
import os
```

Then you can use the listdir function:

```
files = os.listdir(directory)
```

I hope that helps. Let me know if you have any other questions.

I'm not sure if I'm doing this right. I'm trying to create a new project, and I'm getting the following error:

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. I'm using the latest version of npm.

Thanks!
