Task

Verify that a file called     input.txt     and   a directory called     docs     exist.



This should be done twice:  

   once for the current working directory,   and
   once for a file and a directory in the filesystem root.


Optional criteria (May 2015):   verify it works with:

   zero-length files
   an unusual filename:     `Abdu'l-Bahá.txt  


'Current Directory
Console.WriteLine(If(IO.Directory.Exists("docs"), "directory exists", "directory doesn't exists"))
Console.WriteLine(If(IO.Directory.Exists("output.txt"), "file exists", "file doesn't exists"))
 
'Root
Console.WriteLine(If(IO.Directory.Exists("\docs"), "directory exists", "directory doesn't exists"))
Console.WriteLine(If(IO.Directory.Exists("\output.txt"), "file exists", "file doesn't exists"))
 
'Root, platform independent
Console.WriteLine(If(IO.Directory.Exists(IO.Path.DirectorySeparatorChar & "docs"), _ 
   "directory exists", "directory doesn't exists"))
Console.WriteLine(If(IO.Directory.Exists(IO.Path.DirectorySeparatorChar & "output.txt"), _ 
  "file exists", "file doesn't exists"))
