Q: - Why doesn't glob("*.*") match all the files in a directory?
Because "*.*" matches only filenames with a dot in them. To match all the files in a directory, use glob("*"). The glob function's patterns are designed to be portable across many operating systems and thus do not behave the same as the *.* pattern in DOS.
