How to print current pwd?

[pstein]

Assume I want to print out the current pwd from inside a python v3 script.

The following does not work:

import os
print("pwd=" + os.getcwd())


How else can I achieve this?

Why do you need another method?

[pstein]

What do you mean with "another method"?

Which method would be better?

[DeaD_EyE]

Your code works. What is your problem?
You can use string formating.

import os

print("pwd=%s" % os.getcwd()) # old style formating
print("pwd={}".format(os.getcwd())) # currently used string formating
print(f"pwd={os.getcwd()}") # format string since Python 3.6

Output:
pwd=/home/andre
pwd=/home/andre
pwd=/home/andre

If want a different way can use pathlib.
Work the same,but it detect OS path WindowsPath and PosixPath.
If print() the OS path dos not show.

Windows:

C:\
λ cd 1
C:\1
λ ptpython
>>> import os
>>> os.getcwd()
'C:\\1'

>>> from pathlib import Path
>>> Path.cwd()
WindowsPath('C:/1')
>>> print(f'pwd={Path.cwd()}')
pwd=C:\1

Linux:

mint@mint ~/.pyenv $ ptpython3
>>> import os
>>> os.getcwd()
'/home/mint/.pyenv'

>>> from pathlib import Path
>>> Path.cwd()
PosixPath('/home/mint/.pyenv')
>>> print(f'pwd={Path.cwd()}')
pwd=/home/mint/.pyenv

import os 
dir_path = os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__))
