BMissing import statement for os module
CPath object cannot be printed directly
DThe path string should use backslashes instead of forward slashes

    Import is correct, Path objects can be printed, and forward slashes are valid on most systems.
  3. Final Answer:

    Using + operator to join paths causes TypeError -> Option A
  4. Quick Check:

    Use /, not +, to join pathlib paths [OK]
Quick Trick: Never use + to join pathlib paths; use / instead [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Using + operator for path joining
  • Thinking Path can't be printed
  • Confusing path separators
