Hello World-ish

from os import *
print "Working path: %s" % os.getcwd();

Just wondering how you would do that .. in theory, if you get what I
mean?
I get
NameError: name 'os' is not defined
currently, which I don't know how to fix.. anyone?

Either:

import os

or

print "Working path: %s" % getcwd();



Avoid "from <module> import *" always when you can (there are still modules
designed to work with it). It pollutes namespace and might lead to
undesirable clobbing of data structures (is it your 'getId' method or the
module's that is being used? ;-)).



Be seeing you,

your using the getcwd from os. You need to change the 'from os import
*' to import os


i.e.

import os
print "Working path: %s" % os.getcwd()
