Python and urllib
问题 I'm trying to download a zip file ("tl_2008_01001_edges.zip") from an ftp census site using urllib. What form is the zip file in when I get it and how do I save it? I'm fairly new to Python and don't understand how urllib works. This is my attempt: import urllib, sys zip_file = urllib.urlretrieve("ftp://ftp2.census.gov/geo/tiger/TIGER2008/01_ALABAMA/Autauga_County/", "tl_2008_01001_edges.zip") If I know the list of ftp folders (or counties in this case), can I run through the ftp site list
