recursive file scan
#3
ok, now, i would like to see example code using os.walk that walks through 2 file trees (considered to be nearly identical) in parallel and reports the differences in the names, what is missing and what is extra.

in particular i want to see the code that gets the next file from the walk.

consider the case of 2 huge file trees so large that the list of names in just 1 of them exceeds all available memory.

What do you call someone who speaks three languages? Trilingual. Two languages? Bilingual. One language? American.
