### Useful functions

#### ls - unix listing command

In order to add `eex.ls` to the global name space type the following Lua command

```lua

require 'eex'

ls = eex.ls

```

Listing the content of the current directory and fetching the number of elements it contains

```

ls()

#ls()

```

Listing the content of a specific directory `path` (`path` is a string)

```

ls(path)

```

Getting the *full file name* (file name preceded by its parent directories) of the 3rd PNG image contained in a specific directory `path`

```

ls(path .. '/*.png')[3]

```

#### eex.datasetsPath - fetches $EEX_DATASETS environment variable

Returns the location of the *datasets* directory on the current machine. Basically it fetches the `$EEX_DATASETS` environment variable if existing, otherwise it prompts the user to input the location of the *datasets* dicrectory. In order to `ls` the content of the *abc-dataset* we can do as follow

```lua

ds = eex.datasetsPath()

print(ls(ds .. '/abc-dataset'))

```
