Delete Multiple Empty Folders from List

import os

list_dirs = ['EMPTY-1', 'EMPTY-2', 'C:\\EMPTY-OUTSIDER']

for x in list_dirs:
    os.rmdir(x)

This Python code imports the "os" module which provides a way of using operating system dependent functionality like reading or writing to the file system.

The code then creates a list called "list_dirs" which contains three directory names: 'EMPTY-1', 'EMPTY-2', and 'C:\EMPTY-OUTSIDER'. These directories are represented as strings in the list.

The code then uses a "for" loop to iterate over each directory in the list, and for each directory, it calls the "rmdir" method of the "os" module. This method is used to remove a directory specified by its name.

So, in essence, the code is trying to remove three directories named 'EMPTY-1', 'EMPTY-2', and 'C:\EMPTY-OUTSIDER' from the file system. However, it's important to note that if any of these directories are not empty, the "rmdir" method will raise an error, and the directory will not be deleted.
