Is there a way to connect repl.it with data in local drive?

Question

On repl.it, I tried to call the path I know it exists, but it gave me an error.

Code:

import os
print os.path.exists('C:\Users\')

Error:

SyntaxError: EOL while scanning string literal
exited with non-zero status

You need to escape your backslashes. See the documentation here.

import os
print os.path.exists('C:\\Users\\')

Same error. I suspect there may be restriction on the path, is it possible? And how can I confirm that? – KubiK888 May 09 '17 at 22:22
`os` is also missing in your example (you have only the word `import`). Did you correct that? This code works fine in repl.it when I attempt to run it. – stelioslogothetis May 09 '17 at 22:24
Please look at [this](https://repl.it/HqYD) repl. The code works perfectly. – stelioslogothetis May 10 '17 at 11:22
