I have a few sub-folders in the main folder. There is a .txt file in each sub-folder. Firstly the code will create the "result" folder in the main folder. And it will search "atom" word in each .txt and print the first column including "atom" word. The code creates the "result" folder but it gives the following error. How can I fix it?
