This function lists only the files in a specified directory, excluding
directories. It is useful when you need to process or analyze only the files
within a directory without including subdirectories. The base::list.files()
function lists both files and directories, so this function provides a more
convenient way to obtain just the files.
Arguments
- dirPath
Character. The path to the directory from which to list files.
- ...
Additional arguments passed to
base::list.files()(e.g.,pattern,recursive). Note thatfull.nameswill be ignored.
