Look, Nick,

A lot of people are frustrated by you. You should understand that. If
you cannot, you need to step back and consider, or you really are a
troll.

Now, obviously it's not going to get you any help to have half of the
forum angry at you. People have stopped helping, at least in large.
This is fine; people here are volunteers. But you want help.

So, Nick, listen. You need to learn how to ask *smart* questions. If
you do, I *guarantee* that people will respect you a lot more. I'll be
willing to give a bit of time to explain what I mean.

1) What is your problem. Not "I want to know why it doesn't print
anything." Here's an example, for some random idea:

> I've written some code to find the first file in a directory which
> is not UTF-8. Lines 40-42 are meant to print out the file found
> to a log ("/home/joshua/.logs/log"). Unfortunately, although
> there is no error, no file is printed to the log.

2) What have you tried? What debugging have you done? For someone of
your skill level, it's also important to tell us what you think your
code is doing. Example:

> I've tried checking for a failure - when there is no non-UTF-8 file
> in the directory the appropriate error is raised. I think this should
> mean that the "else" after the "for" loop would be run, and this
> should run the lines 40-42 above when there *is* a non-UTF-8
> file.

3) If possible, give us an example we can run.

Do you see the difference?

Sure. Here I go:

What's the question?
