## Modules
import argparse
import pathlib
import datetime

## Function
def search_file_older_than_x_days(path, xdays):
## Current Date
today = datetime.datetime.now()
if path.is_dir(): # Checking the given arg is a dir or not
for item in path.iterdir(): # if it's a dir iterating through each item
if item.is_file(): # checking if its a file or not
file_creation_date = datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp(item.stat().st_ctime) # Fetching the creation time
days_differ = (today-file_creation_date).days # Getting the difference between current date and file creation date
if days_differ > int(xdays): # if it's more then specified xdays
print(item,"older than %x days"%days_differ) # if yes print the specified file
else:
print("Directory %s doent exists"%path) # Print statement if the given path doesnt exist

## Create the parser
parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()

## Add the arguments
parser.add_argument("--path", help="Directory Path")
parser.add_argument("--days", help="mention days to find files older than x days ")

## Execute the parse_arg() method
args = parser.parse_args()

## Setting up the default values if not passed through cmd line
if args.path:
path = pathlib.Path(args.path)
else:
path = pathlib.Path('/var/log/')
if args.days:
days = args.days
else:
