I'm working on a python cleanup script. I'm trying to determine the amount of files and total space prior to the cleanup. Also, want the total files and space of files that are deleted by the script. is os.path.getsize(filePath the way to go?

for example:

when i run my script it will give me the number of files to be deleted but i can't get a starting count(files and size) or a count (files and size) after i run the delete. I'm wanting this so i can figure out how much space i'm saving by running the clean. Any help would be appreciated.

thanks,
