+scandir, a better directory iterator and faster os.walk()
+
+scandir() is a generator version of os.listdir() that returns 
+an iterator over files in a directory, and also exposes the 
+extra information most OSes provide while iterating files in a 
+directory (such as type and stat information).
+
+This module also includes a version of os.walk() that uses 
+scandir() to speed it up significantly.
+
+NOTE: If you’re using Python version 3.5+, os.scandir() and the 
+speed improvements to os.walk() are already available in the 
+standard library.
