搞机器学习或者深度学习算法很多时候需要遍历某个目录读取文件，特别是经常需要读取某个特定后缀的文件，比如图片的话可能需要读取jpg, png, bmp格式的文件。python本身的库函数功能没有这么定制化，所以就需要再重新包装一下。
假设我们有如下的目录结构，以bmp结尾的是文件，其他是文件夹。下面的程序都将以该目录结构为例进行说明。
os.listdir仅读取当前路径下的文件和文件夹，返回一个列表。读取demo目录结构的代码和结果如下：
path = r'D:\data' items = os.listdir(path) # ==> ['1.bmp', '2.bmp', 'a', 'b']
os.walk本身已经是遍历读取，包含所有的子文件（夹）但是其结果不像是os.listdir一样是个list，而是一个比较复杂的数据体，难以直接使用，所以一般需要再处理一下。我们可以使用for语句将其打印出来看看：
path = r'D:\data'
# part 1
for items in os.walk(path):
print(items)
# part 2
for main_dir, sub_dir_list, sub_file_list in os.walk(path):
print(main_dir, sub_dir_list, sub_file_list)
结果为：
# part 1
('D:\\data', ['a', 'b'], ['1.bmp', '2.bmp'])
('D:\\data\\a', [], ['a1.bmp'])
('D:\\data\\b', [], ['b1.bmp'])
# part 2
D:\data ['a', 'b'] ['1.bmp', '2.bmp']
D:\data\a [] ['a1.bmp']
D:\data\b [] ['b1.bmp']
使用迭代器对os.walk()的结果进行输出，发现每一条包含三个部分（part 1），在part 2中，我们给三个部分分别起名为main_dir, sub_dir_list, sub_file_list，下面对其进行简单解释：
连接main_dir和sub_file_list中的文件可以得到路径下的所有文件。
sub_dir_list在这里则没有用处，我们无需再去遍历sub_dir_list，因为它们已经包含在main_dir里了。
代码逻辑如下：
需要有后缀辨别功能，并且能够同时辨别多个后缀
需要有递归和非递归功能
返回的是以入参path为前缀的路径，所以如果path是完整路径那么返回的就是完整路径，否则就不是
