Not sure what you're looking to do, but you need to indent the final line in your code above. This does nothing to delete empty shapefiles, though. Also would advise against using arcgisscripting; that's an older method. Not even sure if it would work to combine it with current arcpy.

You might also look at 10.1. os.path — Common pathname manipulations — Python 2.7.8 documentation and 15.1. os — Miscellaneous operating system interfaces — Python 2.7.8 documentation or Python os.listdir() Method

    Or who can help combine the above-mentioned writings that the current script to obtain? Thanks! import arcpy
import os
workspace = "c:/data"
feature_classes = []
for dirpath, dirnames, filenames in arcpy.da.Walk(workspace,
   datatype="FeatureClass",
   type="Polygon"):
   for filename in filenames:
   feature_classes.append(os.path.join(dirpath, filename))

Sorry don't use glob, this is better:
