Python code to reduce a clutter of files into set of folders each having a fixed number of files

sort files into folders based on max number of files per folder.py

# make sure your code file is in the base folder of "test" which contains all files to be sorted
import os

# we'll use this to increment folder count
i = 0

# set subfolder name here
workingfolder = 'test'

# move currentworkingdirectory to "test" folder
if not os.path.basename(os.getcwd()) == workingfolder:
    os.chdir(os.path.join(os.getcwd(), workingfolder))

# only include files in the list. Not folders. Using for-if list comprehension
files = [f for f in os.listdir() if os.path.isfile(f)]

for count, filename in enumerate(files):

    # check if current file number is divisible by given number. 
    # If yes, make a new folder
    if count % 2 == 0:
        try:
            i += 1
            os.makedirs('set-' + str(i))

        except Exception as e:
            pass

    # print(count, filename)

    try:
        # move the file
        startpath = os.path.join(os.getcwd(), filename)
        endpath = os.path.join(os.getcwd(), os.path.join("set-"+str(i), filename))
        os.rename(startpath, endpath)

    except:
        pass
