Since Python 3.6+ it has *pathlib* to handle the file ops. (OOP concept) - it's recommended way. — Daniel Hao, Dec 29 '22 at 13:23

You can use the isfile() function from the os.path module to check whether an element is a file or a directory:

from os import listdir
from os.path import isfile, join

onlyfiles = [f for f in listdir(mypath) if isfile(join(mypath, f))]
