[FIXED] How to get list of subdirectories names

Issue

There is a directory that contains folders as well as files of different formats.

import os 
my_list = os.listdir('My_directory')

will return full content of files and folders names. I can use, for example, endswith('.txt') method to select just text files names, but how to get list of just folders names?

Solution

I usually check for directories, while assembling a list in one go. Assuming that there is a directory called foo, that I would like to check for sub-directories:

import os
output = [dI for dI in os.listdir('foo') if os.path.isdir(os.path.join('foo',dI))]
