+### Word Detector
+
+#### This script is used to detect whether a given word is present in a list of files.All the files which contain the specified word gets stored in a seperate folder.
+
+#### It takes two inputs - 
+
+1.Path of the directory which contains the files.
+     
+[Sample path - "C:/Users/<Your System Name>/Desktop/<Target Folder>/"]
+	
+2.Word that you want to detect in these files.
+	 
+[Sample word - "awesome"]
+	
+#### The output it produces - 
+
+A seperate folder in the current directory which contains the target files(files that contain the input word).
