+
+2to3 - Automated Python 2 to 3 code translation
+===============================================
+
+.. sectionauthor:: Benjamin Peterson <[email protected]>
+
+2to3 is a Python program that reads Python 2.x source code and applies a series
+of *fixers* to transform it into valid Python 3.x code. The standard library
+contains a rich set of fixers that will handle almost all code. 2to3 supporting
+library :mod:`lib2to3` is, however, a flexible and generic library, so it is
+possible to write your own fixers for 2to3. :mod:`lib2to3` could also be
+adapted to custom applications in which Python code needs to be edited
+automatically.
+
+
+.. _2to3-using:
+
+Using 2to3
+----------
+
+2to3 will usually be installed with the Python interpreter as a script. It is
+also located in the :file:`Tools/scripts` directory of the Python root.
+
+2to3's basic arguments are a list of files or directories to transform. The
+directories are recursively traversed for Python sources.
+
+Here is a sample Python 2.x source file, :file:`example.py`::
+
+ def greet(name):
+ print "Hello, {0}!".format(name)
+ print "What's your name?"
+ name = raw_input()
+ greet(name)
+
+It can be converted to Python 3.x code via 2to3 on the command line::
+
+ $ 2to3 example.py
+
+A diff against the original source file is printed. 2to3 can also write the
+needed modifications right back to the source file. (A backup of the original
+file is made unless :option:`-n` is also given.) Writing the changes back is
+enabled with the :option:`-w` flag::
+
+ $ 2to3 -w example.py
+
+After transformation, :file:`example.py` looks like this::
+
+ def greet(name):
+ print("Hello, {0}!".format(name))
+ print("What's your name?")
+ name = input()
+ greet(name)
+
+Comments and exact indentation are preserved throughout the translation process.
+
+By default, 2to3 runs a set of :ref:`predefined fixers <2to3-fixers>`. The
+:option:`-l` flag lists all available fixers. An explicit set of fixers to run
+can be given with :option:`-f`. Likewise the :option:`-x` explicitly disables a
+fixer. The following example runs only the ``imports`` and ``has_key`` fixers::
+
+ $ 2to3 -f imports -f has_key example.py
+
+This command runs every fixer except the ``apply`` fixer::
+
+ $ 2to3 -x apply example.py
+
+Some fixers are *explicit*, meaning they aren't run by default and must be
+listed on the command line to be run. Here, in addition to the default fixers,
+the ``idioms`` fixer is run::
+
+ $ 2to3 -f all -f idioms example.py
+
+Notice how passing ``all`` enables all default fixers.
+
+Sometimes 2to3 will find a place in your source code that needs to be changed,
+but 2to3 cannot fix automatically. In this case, 2to3 will print a warning
+beneath the diff for a file. You should address the warning in order to have
+compliant 3.x code.
+
+2to3 can also refactor doctests. To enable this mode, use the :option:`-d`
+flag. Note that *only* doctests will be refactored. This also doesn't require
+the module to be valid Python. For example, doctest like examples in a reST
+document could also be refactored with this option.
+
+The :option:`-v` option enables output of more information on the translation
+process.
+
+Since some print statements can be parsed as function calls or statements, 2to3
+cannot always read files containing the print function. When 2to3 detects the
+presence of the ``from __future__ import print_function`` compiler directive, it
+modifies its internal grammar to interpret :func:`print` as a function. This
+change can also be enabled manually with the :option:`-p` flag. Use
+:option:`-p` to run fixers on code that already has had its print statements
+converted.
+
+The :option:`-o` or :option:`--output-dir` option allows specification of an
+alternate directory for processed output files to be written to. The
+:option:`-n` flag is required when using this as backup files do not make sense
+when not overwriting the input files.
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.7.3
+ The :option:`-o` option was added.
+
+The :option:`-W` or :option:`--write-unchanged-files` flag tells 2to3 to always
+write output files even if no changes were required to the file. This is most
+useful with :option:`-o` so that an entire Python source tree is copied with
+translation from one directory to another.
+This option implies the :option:`-w` flag as it would not make sense otherwise.
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.7.3
+ The :option:`-W` flag was added.
+
+The :option:`--add-suffix` option specifies a string to append to all output
+filenames. The :option:`-n` flag is required when specifying this as backups
+are not necessary when writing to different filenames. Example::
+
+ $ 2to3 -n -W --add-suffix=3 example.py
+
+Will cause a converted file named ``example.py3`` to be written.
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.7.3
+ The :option:`--add-suffix` option was added.
+
+To translate an entire project from one directory tree to another use::
+
+ $ 2to3 --output-dir=python3-version/mycode -W -n python2-version/mycode
+
+
+.. _2to3-fixers:
+
+Fixers
+------
+
+Each step of transforming code is encapsulated in a fixer. The command ``2to3
+-l`` lists them. As :ref:`documented above <2to3-using>`, each can be turned on
+and off individually. They are described here in more detail.
+
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: apply
+
+ Removes usage of :func:`apply`. For example ``apply(function, *args,
+ **kwargs)`` is converted to ``function(*args, **kwargs)``.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: basestring
+
+ Converts :class:`basestring` to :class:`str`.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: buffer
+
+ Converts :class:`buffer` to :class:`memoryview`. This fixer is optional
+ because the :class:`memoryview` API is similar but not exactly the same as
+ that of :class:`buffer`.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: callable
+
+ Converts ``callable(x)`` to ``isinstance(x, collections.Callable)``, adding
+ an import to :mod:`collections` if needed. Note ``callable(x)`` has returned
+ in Python 3.2, so if you do not intend to support Python 3.1, you can disable
+ this fixer.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: dict
+
+ Fixes dictionary iteration methods. :meth:`dict.iteritems` is converted to
+ :meth:`dict.items`, :meth:`dict.iterkeys` to :meth:`dict.keys`, and
+ :meth:`dict.itervalues` to :meth:`dict.values`. Similarly,
+ :meth:`dict.viewitems`, :meth:`dict.viewkeys` and :meth:`dict.viewvalues` are
+ converted respectively to :meth:`dict.items`, :meth:`dict.keys` and
+ :meth:`dict.values`. It also wraps existing usages of :meth:`dict.items`,
+ :meth:`dict.keys`, and :meth:`dict.values` in a call to :class:`list`.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: except
+
+ Converts ``except X, T`` to ``except X as T``.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: exec
+
+ Converts the :keyword:`exec` statement to the :func:`exec` function.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: execfile
+
+ Removes usage of :func:`execfile`. The argument to :func:`execfile` is
+ wrapped in calls to :func:`open`, :func:`compile`, and :func:`exec`.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: exitfunc
+
+ Changes assignment of :attr:`sys.exitfunc` to use of the :mod:`atexit`
+ module.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: filter
+
+ Wraps :func:`filter` usage in a :class:`list` call.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: funcattrs
+
+ Fixes function attributes that have been renamed. For example,
+ ``my_function.func_closure`` is converted to ``my_function.__closure__``.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: future
+
+ Removes ``from __future__ import new_feature`` statements.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: getcwdu
+
+ Renames :func:`os.getcwdu` to :func:`os.getcwd`.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: has_key
+
+ Changes ``dict.has_key(key)`` to ``key in dict``.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: idioms
+
+ This optional fixer performs several transformations that make Python code
+ more idiomatic. Type comparisons like ``type(x) is SomeClass`` and
+ ``type(x) == SomeClass`` are converted to ``isinstance(x, SomeClass)``.
+ ``while 1`` becomes ``while True``. This fixer also tries to make use of
+ :func:`sorted` in appropriate places. For example, this block ::
+
+ L = list(some_iterable)
+ L.sort()
+
+ is changed to ::
+
+ L = sorted(some_iterable)
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: import
+
+ Detects sibling imports and converts them to relative imports.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: imports
+
+ Handles module renames in the standard library.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: imports2
+
+ Handles other modules renames in the standard library. It is separate from
+ the :2to3fixer:`imports` fixer only because of technical limitations.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: input
+
+ Converts ``input(prompt)`` to ``eval(input(prompt))``
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: intern
+
+ Converts :func:`intern` to :func:`sys.intern`.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: isinstance
+
+ Fixes duplicate types in the second argument of :func:`isinstance`. For
+ example, ``isinstance(x, (int, int))`` is converted to ``isinstance(x,
+ (int))``.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: itertools_imports
+
+ Removes imports of :func:`itertools.ifilter`, :func:`itertools.izip`, and
+ :func:`itertools.imap`. Imports of :func:`itertools.ifilterfalse` are also
+ changed to :func:`itertools.filterfalse`.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: itertools
+
+ Changes usage of :func:`itertools.ifilter`, :func:`itertools.izip`, and
+ :func:`itertools.imap` to their built-in equivalents.
+ :func:`itertools.ifilterfalse` is changed to :func:`itertools.filterfalse`.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: long
+
+ Renames :class:`long` to :class:`int`.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: map
+
+ Wraps :func:`map` in a :class:`list` call. It also changes ``map(None, x)``
+ to ``list(x)``. Using ``from future_builtins import map`` disables this
+ fixer.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: metaclass
+
+ Converts the old metaclass syntax (``__metaclass__ = Meta`` in the class
+ body) to the new (``class X(metaclass=Meta)``).
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: methodattrs
+
+ Fixes old method attribute names. For example, ``meth.im_func`` is converted
+ to ``meth.__func__``.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: ne
+
+ Converts the old not-equal syntax, ``<>``, to ``!=``.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: next
+
+ Converts the use of iterator's :meth:`~iterator.next` methods to the
+ :func:`next` function. It also renames :meth:`next` methods to
+ :meth:`~object.__next__`.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: nonzero
+
+ Renames :meth:`~object.__nonzero__` to :meth:`~object.__bool__`.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: numliterals
+
+ Converts octal literals into the new syntax.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: paren
+
+ Add extra parenthesis where they are required in list comprehensions. For
+ example, ``[x for x in 1, 2]`` becomes ``[x for x in (1, 2)]``.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: print
+
+ Converts the :keyword:`print` statement to the :func:`print` function.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: raise
+
+ Converts ``raise E, V`` to ``raise E(V)``, and ``raise E, V, T`` to ``raise
+ E(V).with_traceback(T)``. If ``E`` is a tuple, the translation will be
+ incorrect because substituting tuples for exceptions has been removed in Python 3.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: raw_input
+
+ Converts :func:`raw_input` to :func:`input`.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: reduce
+
+ Handles the move of :func:`reduce` to :func:`functools.reduce`.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: renames
+
+ Changes :data:`sys.maxint` to :data:`sys.maxsize`.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: repr
+
+ Replaces backtick repr with the :func:`repr` function.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: set_literal
+
+ Replaces use of the :class:`set` constructor with set literals. This fixer
+ is optional.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: standard_error
+
+ Renames :exc:`StandardError` to :exc:`Exception`.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: sys_exc
+
+ Changes the deprecated :data:`sys.exc_value`, :data:`sys.exc_type`,
+ :data:`sys.exc_traceback` to use :func:`sys.exc_info`.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: throw
+
+ Fixes the API change in generator's :meth:`throw` method.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: tuple_params
+
+ Removes implicit tuple parameter unpacking. This fixer inserts temporary
+ variables.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: types
+
+ Fixes code broken from the removal of some members in the :mod:`types`
+ module.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: unicode
+
+ Renames :class:`unicode` to :class:`str`.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: urllib
+
+ Handles the rename of :mod:`urllib` and :mod:`urllib2` to the :mod:`urllib`
+ package.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: ws_comma
+
+ Removes excess whitespace from comma separated items. This fixer is
+ optional.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: xrange
+
+ Renames :func:`xrange` to :func:`range` and wraps existing :func:`range`
+ calls with :class:`list`.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: xreadlines
+
+ Changes ``for x in file.xreadlines()`` to ``for x in file``.
+
+.. 2to3fixer:: zip
+
+ Wraps :func:`zip` usage in a :class:`list` call. This is disabled when
+ ``from future_builtins import zip`` appears.

+:mod:`__builtin__` --- Built-in objects
+=======================================
+
+.. module:: __builtin__
+ :synopsis: The module that provides the built-in namespace.
+
+
+This module provides direct access to all 'built-in' identifiers of Python; for
+example, ``__builtin__.open`` is the full name for the built-in function
+:func:`open`. See :ref:`built-in-funcs` and :ref:`built-in-consts` for
+documentation.
+
+
+This module is not normally accessed explicitly by most applications, but can be
+useful in modules that provide objects with the same name as a built-in value,
+but in which the built-in of that name is also needed. For example, in a module
+that wants to implement an :func:`open` function that wraps the built-in
+:func:`open`, this module can be used directly::
+
+ import __builtin__
+
+ def open(path):
+ f = __builtin__.open(path, 'r')
+ return UpperCaser(f)
+
+ class UpperCaser:
+ '''Wrapper around a file that converts output to upper-case.'''
+
+ def __init__(self, f):
+ self._f = f
+
+ def read(self, count=-1):
+ return self._f.read(count).upper()
+
+ # ...
+
+.. impl-detail::
+
+ Most modules have the name ``__builtins__`` (note the ``'s'``) made available
+ as part of their globals. The value of ``__builtins__`` is normally either
+ this module or the value of this modules's :attr:`__dict__` attribute. Since
+ this is an implementation detail, it may not be used by alternate
+ implementations of Python.

+:mod:`__future__` --- Future statement definitions
+==================================================
+
+.. module:: __future__
+ :synopsis: Future statement definitions
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/__future__.py`
+
+--------------
+
+:mod:`__future__` is a real module, and serves three purposes:
+
+* To avoid confusing existing tools that analyze import statements and expect to
+ find the modules they're importing.
+
+* To ensure that :ref:`future statements <future>` run under releases prior to
+ 2.1 at least yield runtime exceptions (the import of :mod:`__future__` will
+ fail, because there was no module of that name prior to 2.1).
+
+* To document when incompatible changes were introduced, and when they will be
+ --- or were --- made mandatory. This is a form of executable documentation, and
+ can be inspected programmatically via importing :mod:`__future__` and examining
+ its contents.
+
+Each statement in :file:`__future__.py` is of the form::
+
+ FeatureName = _Feature(OptionalRelease, MandatoryRelease,
+ CompilerFlag)
+
+
+where, normally, *OptionalRelease* is less than *MandatoryRelease*, and both are
+5-tuples of the same form as ``sys.version_info``::
+
+ (PY_MAJOR_VERSION, # the 2 in 2.1.0a3; an int
+ PY_MINOR_VERSION, # the 1; an int
+ PY_MICRO_VERSION, # the 0; an int
+ PY_RELEASE_LEVEL, # "alpha", "beta", "candidate" or "final"; string
+ PY_RELEASE_SERIAL # the 3; an int
+ )
+
+*OptionalRelease* records the first release in which the feature was accepted.
+
+In the case of a *MandatoryRelease* that has not yet occurred,
+*MandatoryRelease* predicts the release in which the feature will become part of
+the language.
+
+Else *MandatoryRelease* records when the feature became part of the language; in
+releases at or after that, modules no longer need a future statement to use the
+feature in question, but may continue to use such imports.
+
+*MandatoryRelease* may also be ``None``, meaning that a planned feature got
+dropped.
+
+Instances of class :class:`_Feature` have two corresponding methods,
+:meth:`getOptionalRelease` and :meth:`getMandatoryRelease`.
+
+*CompilerFlag* is the (bitfield) flag that should be passed in the fourth
+argument to the built-in function :func:`compile` to enable the feature in
+dynamically compiled code. This flag is stored in the :attr:`compiler_flag`
+attribute on :class:`_Feature` instances.
+
+No feature description will ever be deleted from :mod:`__future__`. Since its
+introduction in Python 2.1 the following features have found their way into the
+language using this mechanism:
+

+=========================================
+
+.. module:: _winreg
+ :platform: Windows
+ :synopsis: Routines and objects for manipulating the Windows registry.
+.. sectionauthor:: Mark Hammond <[email protected]>
+
+.. note::
+ The :mod:`_winreg` module has been renamed to :mod:`winreg` in Python 3.
+ The :term:`2to3` tool will automatically adapt imports when converting your
+ sources to Python 3.
+
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+These functions expose the Windows registry API to Python. Instead of using an
+integer as the registry handle, a :ref:`handle object <handle-object>` is used
+to ensure that the handles are closed correctly, even if the programmer neglects
+to explicitly close them.
+
+This module offers the following functions:
+
+
+.. function:: CloseKey(hkey)
+
+ Closes a previously opened registry key. The *hkey* argument specifies a
+ previously opened key.
+
+ .. note::
+ If *hkey* is not closed using this method (or via :meth:`hkey.Close() <PyHKEY.Close>`),
+ it is closed when the *hkey* object is destroyed by Python.
+
+
+.. function:: ConnectRegistry(computer_name, key)
+
+ Establishes a connection to a predefined registry handle on another computer,
+ and returns a :ref:`handle object <handle-object>`.
+
+ *computer_name* is the name of the remote computer, of the form
+ ``r"\\computername"``. If ``None``, the local computer is used.
+
+ *key* is the predefined handle to connect to.
+
+ The return value is the handle of the opened key. If the function fails, a
+ :exc:`WindowsError` exception is raised.
+
+
+.. function:: CreateKey(key, sub_key)
+
+ Creates or opens the specified key, returning a
+ :ref:`handle object <handle-object>`.
+
+ *key* is an already open key, or one of the predefined
+ :ref:`HKEY_* constants <hkey-constants>`.
+
+ *sub_key* is a string that names the key this method opens or creates.
+
+ If *key* is one of the predefined keys, *sub_key* may be ``None``. In that
+ case, the handle returned is the same key handle passed in to the function.
+
+ If the key already exists, this function opens the existing key.
+
+ The return value is the handle of the opened key. If the function fails, a
+ :exc:`WindowsError` exception is raised.
+
+
+.. function:: CreateKeyEx(key, sub_key[, res[, sam]])
+
+ Creates or opens the specified key, returning a
+ :ref:`handle object <handle-object>`.
+
+ *key* is an already open key, or one of the predefined
+ :ref:`HKEY_* constants <hkey-constants>`.
+
+ *sub_key* is a string that names the key this method opens or creates.
+
+ *res* is a reserved integer, and must be zero. The default is zero.
+
+ *sam* is an integer that specifies an access mask that describes the desired
+ security access for the key. Default is :const:`KEY_ALL_ACCESS`. See
+ :ref:`Access Rights <access-rights>` for other allowed values.
+
+
+ If *key* is one of the predefined keys, *sub_key* may be ``None``. In that
+ case, the handle returned is the same key handle passed in to the function.
+
+ If the key already exists, this function opens the existing key.
+
+ The return value is the handle of the opened key. If the function fails, a
+ :exc:`WindowsError` exception is raised.
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+.. function:: DeleteKey(key, sub_key)
+
+ Deletes the specified key.
+
+ *key* is an already open key, or any one of the predefined
+ :ref:`HKEY_* constants <hkey-constants>`.

+
+ +-------+--------------------------------------------+
+ | Index | Meaning |
+ +=======+============================================+
+ | ``0`` | A string that identifies the value name |
+ +-------+--------------------------------------------+
+ | ``1`` | An object that holds the value data, and |
+ | | whose type depends on the underlying |
+ | | registry type |
+ +-------+--------------------------------------------+
+ | ``2`` | An integer that identifies the type of the |

+
+
+.. function:: ExpandEnvironmentStrings(unicode)

+
+ >>> ExpandEnvironmentStrings(u"%windir%")
+ u"C:\\Windows"
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: FlushKey(key)
+
+ Writes all the attributes of a key to the registry.
+
+ *key* is an already open key, or one of the predefined
+ :ref:`HKEY_* constants <hkey-constants>`.
+
+ It is not necessary to call :func:`FlushKey` to change a key. Registry changes are
+ flushed to disk by the registry using its lazy flusher. Registry changes are
+ also flushed to disk at system shutdown. Unlike :func:`CloseKey`, the
+ :func:`FlushKey` method returns only when all the data has been written to the
+ registry. An application should only call :func:`FlushKey` if it requires
+ absolute certainty that registry changes are on disk.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ If you don't know whether a :func:`FlushKey` call is required, it probably
+ isn't.
+
+
+.. function:: LoadKey(key, sub_key, file_name)
+
+ Creates a subkey under the specified key and stores registration information
+ from a specified file into that subkey.
+
+ *key* is a handle returned by :func:`ConnectRegistry` or one of the constants
+ :const:`HKEY_USERS` or :const:`HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE`.
+
+ *sub_key* is a string that identifies the subkey to load.
+
+ *file_name* is the name of the file to load registry data from. This file must
+ have been created with the :func:`SaveKey` function. Under the file allocation
+ table (FAT) file system, the filename may not have an extension.
+
+ A call to :func:`LoadKey` fails if the calling process does not have the
+ :const:`SE_RESTORE_PRIVILEGE` privilege. Note that privileges are different
+ from permissions -- see the `RegLoadKey documentation
+ <http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms724889%28v=VS.85%29.aspx>`__ for
+ more details.
+
+ If *key* is a handle returned by :func:`ConnectRegistry`, then the path
+ specified in *file_name* is relative to the remote computer.
+
+
+.. function:: OpenKey(key, sub_key[, res[, sam]])
+
+ Opens the specified key, returning a :ref:`handle object <handle-object>`.
+
+ *key* is an already open key, or any one of the predefined
+ :ref:`HKEY_* constants <hkey-constants>`.
+
+ *sub_key* is a string that identifies the sub_key to open.
+
+ *res* is a reserved integer, and must be zero. The default is zero.
+
+ *sam* is an integer that specifies an access mask that describes the desired
+ security access for the key. Default is :const:`KEY_READ`. See
+ :ref:`Access Rights <access-rights>` for other allowed values.
+
+ The result is a new handle to the specified key.
+
+ If the function fails, :exc:`WindowsError` is raised.
+
+
+.. function:: OpenKeyEx()
+
+ The functionality of :func:`OpenKeyEx` is provided via :func:`OpenKey`,
+ by the use of default arguments.
+
+
+.. function:: QueryInfoKey(key)
+
+ Returns information about a key, as a tuple.
+
+ *key* is an already open key, or one of the predefined
+ :ref:`HKEY_* constants <hkey-constants>`.
+
+ The result is a tuple of 3 items:
+
+ +-------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | Index | Meaning |
+ +=======+=============================================+
+ | ``0`` | An integer giving the number of sub keys |
+ | | this key has. |
+ +-------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | ``1`` | An integer giving the number of values this |
+ | | key has. |
+ +-------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | ``2`` | A long integer giving when the key was last |
+ | | modified (if available) as 100's of |
+ | | nanoseconds since Jan 1, 1600. |
+ +-------+---------------------------------------------+
+
+
+.. function:: QueryValue(key, sub_key)
+
+ Retrieves the unnamed value for a key, as a string.
+
+ *key* is an already open key, or one of the predefined
+ :ref:`HKEY_* constants <hkey-constants>`.
+
+ *sub_key* is a string that holds the name of the subkey with which the value is
+ associated. If this parameter is ``None`` or empty, the function retrieves the
+ value set by the :func:`SetValue` method for the key identified by *key*.
+
+ Values in the registry have name, type, and data components. This method
+ retrieves the data for a key's first value that has a NULL name. But the
+ underlying API call doesn't return the type, so always use
+ :func:`QueryValueEx` if possible.
+
+
+.. function:: QueryValueEx(key, value_name)
+
+ Retrieves the type and data for a specified value name associated with
+ an open registry key.
+
+ *key* is an already open key, or one of the predefined
+ :ref:`HKEY_* constants <hkey-constants>`.
+
+ *value_name* is a string indicating the value to query.
+
+ The result is a tuple of 2 items:
+
+ +-------+-----------------------------------------+
+ | Index | Meaning |
+ +=======+=========================================+
+ | ``0`` | The value of the registry item. |
+ +-------+-----------------------------------------+
+ | ``1`` | An integer giving the registry type for |
+ | | this value (see table in docs for |
+ | | :meth:`SetValueEx`) |
+ +-------+-----------------------------------------+
+
+
+.. function:: SaveKey(key, file_name)
+
+ Saves the specified key, and all its subkeys to the specified file.
+
+ *key* is an already open key, or one of the predefined
+ :ref:`HKEY_* constants <hkey-constants>`.
+
+ *file_name* is the name of the file to save registry data to. This file
+ cannot already exist. If this filename includes an extension, it cannot be
+ used on file allocation table (FAT) file systems by the :meth:`LoadKey`
+ method.
+
+ If *key* represents a key on a remote computer, the path described by
+ *file_name* is relative to the remote computer. The caller of this method must
+ possess the :const:`SeBackupPrivilege` security privilege. Note that
+ privileges are different than permissions -- see the
+ `Conflicts Between User Rights and Permissions documentation
+ <http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms724878%28v=VS.85%29.aspx>`__
+ for more details.
+
+ This function passes NULL for *security_attributes* to the API.
+
+
+.. function:: SetValue(key, sub_key, type, value)
+
+ Associates a value with a specified key.
+
+ *key* is an already open key, or one of the predefined
+ :ref:`HKEY_* constants <hkey-constants>`.
+
+ *sub_key* is a string that names the subkey with which the value is associated.
+
+ *type* is an integer that specifies the type of the data. Currently this must be
+ :const:`REG_SZ`, meaning only strings are supported. Use the :func:`SetValueEx`
+ function for support for other data types.
+
+ *value* is a string that specifies the new value.
+
+ If the key specified by the *sub_key* parameter does not exist, the SetValue
+ function creates it.
+
+ Value lengths are limited by available memory. Long values (more than 2048
+ bytes) should be stored as files with the filenames stored in the configuration
+ registry. This helps the registry perform efficiently.
+
+ The key identified by the *key* parameter must have been opened with
+ :const:`KEY_SET_VALUE` access.
+
+
+.. function:: SetValueEx(key, value_name, reserved, type, value)
+
+ Stores data in the value field of an open registry key.
+
+ *key* is an already open key, or one of the predefined
+ :ref:`HKEY_* constants <hkey-constants>`.
+
+ *value_name* is a string that names the subkey with which the value is
+ associated.
+
+ *type* is an integer that specifies the type of the data. See
+ :ref:`Value Types <value-types>` for the available types.
+
+ *reserved* can be anything -- zero is always passed to the API.
+
+ *value* is a string that specifies the new value.
+
+ This method can also set additional value and type information for the specified
+ key. The key identified by the key parameter must have been opened with
+ :const:`KEY_SET_VALUE` access.
+
+ To open the key, use the :func:`CreateKey` or :func:`OpenKey` methods.
+
+ Value lengths are limited by available memory. Long values (more than 2048
+ bytes) should be stored as files with the filenames stored in the configuration
+ registry. This helps the registry perform efficiently.
+
+
+.. function:: DisableReflectionKey(key)
+
+ Disables registry reflection for 32-bit processes running on a 64-bit
+ operating system.
+
+ *key* is an already open key, or one of the predefined
+ :ref:`HKEY_* constants <hkey-constants>`.
+
+ Will generally raise :exc:`NotImplemented` if executed on a 32-bit
+ operating system.
+
+ If the key is not on the reflection list, the function succeeds but has no
+ effect. Disabling reflection for a key does not affect reflection of any
+ subkeys.
+
+
+.. function:: EnableReflectionKey(key)
+
+ Restores registry reflection for the specified disabled key.
+
+ *key* is an already open key, or one of the predefined
+ :ref:`HKEY_* constants <hkey-constants>`.
+
+ Will generally raise :exc:`NotImplemented` if executed on a 32-bit
+ operating system.
+
+ Restoring reflection for a key does not affect reflection of any subkeys.
+
+
+.. function:: QueryReflectionKey(key)
+
+ Determines the reflection state for the specified key.
+
+ *key* is an already open key, or one of the predefined
+ :ref:`HKEY_* constants <hkey-constants>`.
+
+ Returns ``True`` if reflection is disabled.
+
+ Will generally raise :exc:`NotImplemented` if executed on a 32-bit

+
+Registry Handle Objects
+-----------------------
+
+This object wraps a Windows HKEY object, automatically closing it when the
+object is destroyed. To guarantee cleanup, you can call either the
+:meth:`~PyHKEY.Close` method on the object, or the :func:`CloseKey` function.
+
+All registry functions in this module return one of these objects.
+
+All registry functions in this module which accept a handle object also accept
+an integer, however, use of the handle object is encouraged.
+
+Handle objects provide semantics for :meth:`__nonzero__` -- thus::
+
+ if handle:
+ print "Yes"
+
+will print ``Yes`` if the handle is currently valid (has not been closed or
+detached).
+
+The object also support comparison semantics, so handle objects will compare
+true if they both reference the same underlying Windows handle value.
+
+Handle objects can be converted to an integer (e.g., using the built-in
+:func:`int` function), in which case the underlying Windows handle value is
+returned. You can also use the :meth:`~PyHKEY.Detach` method to return the
+integer handle, and also disconnect the Windows handle from the handle object.
+
+
+.. method:: PyHKEY.Close()
+
+ Closes the underlying Windows handle.
+
+ If the handle is already closed, no error is raised.
+
+
+.. method:: PyHKEY.Detach()
+
+ Detaches the Windows handle from the handle object.
+
+ The result is an integer (or long on 64 bit Windows) that holds the value of the
+ handle before it is detached. If the handle is already detached or closed, this
+ will return zero.
+
+ After calling this function, the handle is effectively invalidated, but the
+ handle is not closed. You would call this function when you need the
+ underlying Win32 handle to exist beyond the lifetime of the handle object.
+
+.. method:: PyHKEY.__enter__()
+ PyHKEY.__exit__(\*exc_info)
+
+ The HKEY object implements :meth:`~object.__enter__` and
+ :meth:`~object.__exit__` and thus supports the context protocol for the
+ :keyword:`with` statement::
+
+ with OpenKey(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, "foo") as key:
+ ... # work with key
+
+ will automatically close *key* when control leaves the :keyword:`with` block.

+:mod:`abc` --- Abstract Base Classes
+====================================
+
+.. module:: abc
+ :synopsis: Abstract base classes according to PEP 3119.
+.. moduleauthor:: Guido van Rossum
+.. sectionauthor:: Georg Brandl
+.. much of the content adapted from docstrings
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/abc.py`
+
+--------------
+
+This module provides the infrastructure for defining :term:`abstract base
+classes <abstract base class>` (ABCs) in Python, as outlined in :pep:`3119`; see the PEP for why this
+was added to Python. (See also :pep:`3141` and the :mod:`numbers` module
+regarding a type hierarchy for numbers based on ABCs.)
+
+The :mod:`collections` module has some concrete classes that derive from
+ABCs; these can, of course, be further derived. In addition the
+:mod:`collections` module has some ABCs that can be used to test whether
+a class or instance provides a particular interface, for example, is it
+hashable or a mapping.
+
+
+This module provides the following class:
+
+.. class:: ABCMeta
+
+ Metaclass for defining Abstract Base Classes (ABCs).
+
+ Use this metaclass to create an ABC. An ABC can be subclassed directly, and
+ then acts as a mix-in class. You can also register unrelated concrete
+ classes (even built-in classes) and unrelated ABCs as "virtual subclasses" --
+ these and their descendants will be considered subclasses of the registering
+ ABC by the built-in :func:`issubclass` function, but the registering ABC
+ won't show up in their MRO (Method Resolution Order) nor will method
+ implementations defined by the registering ABC be callable (not even via
+ :func:`super`). [#]_
+
+ Classes created with a metaclass of :class:`ABCMeta` have the following method:
+
+ .. method:: register(subclass)
+
+ Register *subclass* as a "virtual subclass" of this ABC. For
+ example::
+
+ from abc import ABCMeta
+
+ class MyABC:
+ __metaclass__ = ABCMeta
+
+ MyABC.register(tuple)
+
+ assert issubclass(tuple, MyABC)
+ assert isinstance((), MyABC)
+
+ You can also override this method in an abstract base class:
+
+ .. method:: __subclasshook__(subclass)
+
+ (Must be defined as a class method.)
+
+ Check whether *subclass* is considered a subclass of this ABC. This means
+ that you can customize the behavior of ``issubclass`` further without the
+ need to call :meth:`register` on every class you want to consider a
+ subclass of the ABC. (This class method is called from the
+ :meth:`__subclasscheck__` method of the ABC.)
+
+ This method should return ``True``, ``False`` or ``NotImplemented``. If
+ it returns ``True``, the *subclass* is considered a subclass of this ABC.
+ If it returns ``False``, the *subclass* is not considered a subclass of
+ this ABC, even if it would normally be one. If it returns
+ ``NotImplemented``, the subclass check is continued with the usual
+ mechanism.
+
+ .. XXX explain the "usual mechanism"
+
+
+ For a demonstration of these concepts, look at this example ABC definition::
+
+ class Foo(object):
+ def __getitem__(self, index):
+ ...
+ def __len__(self):
+ ...
+ def get_iterator(self):
+ return iter(self)
+
+ class MyIterable:
+ __metaclass__ = ABCMeta
+
+ @abstractmethod
+ def __iter__(self):
+ while False:
+ yield None
+
+ def get_iterator(self):
+ return self.__iter__()
+
+ @classmethod
+ def __subclasshook__(cls, C):
+ if cls is MyIterable:
+ if any("__iter__" in B.__dict__ for B in C.__mro__):
+ return True
+ return NotImplemented
+
+ MyIterable.register(Foo)
+
+ The ABC ``MyIterable`` defines the standard iterable method,
+ :meth:`__iter__`, as an abstract method. The implementation given here can
+ still be called from subclasses. The :meth:`get_iterator` method is also
+ part of the ``MyIterable`` abstract base class, but it does not have to be
+ overridden in non-abstract derived classes.
+
+ The :meth:`__subclasshook__` class method defined here says that any class
+ that has an :meth:`__iter__` method in its :attr:`__dict__` (or in that of
+ one of its base classes, accessed via the :attr:`__mro__` list) is
+ considered a ``MyIterable`` too.
+
+ Finally, the last line makes ``Foo`` a virtual subclass of ``MyIterable``,
+ even though it does not define an :meth:`__iter__` method (it uses the
+ old-style iterable protocol, defined in terms of :meth:`__len__` and
+ :meth:`__getitem__`). Note that this will not make ``get_iterator``
+ available as a method of ``Foo``, so it is provided separately.
+
+
+It also provides the following decorators:
+
+.. function:: abstractmethod(function)
+
+ A decorator indicating abstract methods.
+
+ Using this decorator requires that the class's metaclass is :class:`ABCMeta` or
+ is derived from it.
+ A class that has a metaclass derived from :class:`ABCMeta`
+ cannot be instantiated unless all of its abstract methods and
+ properties are overridden.
+ The abstract methods can be called using any of the normal 'super' call
+ mechanisms.
+
+ Dynamically adding abstract methods to a class, or attempting to modify the
+ abstraction status of a method or class once it is created, are not
+ supported. The :func:`abstractmethod` only affects subclasses derived using
+ regular inheritance; "virtual subclasses" registered with the ABC's
+ :meth:`register` method are not affected.
+
+ Usage::
+
+ class C:
+ __metaclass__ = ABCMeta
+ @abstractmethod
+ def my_abstract_method(self, ...):
+ ...
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Unlike Java abstract methods, these abstract
+ methods may have an implementation. This implementation can be
+ called via the :func:`super` mechanism from the class that
+ overrides it. This could be useful as an end-point for a
+ super-call in a framework that uses cooperative
+ multiple-inheritance.
+
+
+.. function:: abstractproperty([fget[, fset[, fdel[, doc]]]])
+

+ :synopsis: Conversion between Python variables and AppleEvent data containers.
+ :deprecated:
+.. sectionauthor:: Vincent Marchetti <[email protected]>
+.. moduleauthor:: Jack Jansen
+
+The :mod:`aepack` module defines functions for converting (packing) Python
+variables to AppleEvent descriptors and back (unpacking). Within Python the
+AppleEvent descriptor is handled by Python objects of built-in type
+:class:`AEDesc`, defined in module :mod:`Carbon.AE`.
+
+.. note::
+
+ This module has been removed in Python 3.x.
+
+
+The :mod:`aepack` module defines the following functions:
+
+
+.. function:: pack(x[, forcetype])
+
+ Returns an :class:`AEDesc` object containing a conversion of Python value x. If
+ *forcetype* is provided it specifies the descriptor type of the result.
+ Otherwise, a default mapping of Python types to Apple Event descriptor types is
+ used, as follows:
+
+ +-----------------+-----------------------------------+
+ | Python type | descriptor type |
+ +=================+===================================+
+ | :class:`FSSpec` | typeFSS |
+ +-----------------+-----------------------------------+
+ | :class:`FSRef` | typeFSRef |
+ +-----------------+-----------------------------------+
+ | :class:`Alias` | typeAlias |
+ +-----------------+-----------------------------------+
+ | integer | typeLong (32 bit integer) |
+ +-----------------+-----------------------------------+
+ | float | typeFloat (64 bit floating point) |
+ +-----------------+-----------------------------------+
+ | string | typeText |
+ +-----------------+-----------------------------------+
+ | unicode | typeUnicodeText |

+ | list | typeAEList |
+ +-----------------+-----------------------------------+
+ | dictionary | typeAERecord |
+ +-----------------+-----------------------------------+
+ | instance | *see below* |
+ +-----------------+-----------------------------------+
+
+ If *x* is a Python instance then this function attempts to call an
+ :meth:`__aepack__` method. This method should return an :class:`AEDesc` object.
+
+ If the conversion *x* is not defined above, this function returns the Python
+ string representation of a value (the repr() function) encoded as a text
+ descriptor.
+
+
+.. function:: unpack(x[, formodulename])
+
+ *x* must be an object of type :class:`AEDesc`. This function returns a Python
+ object representation of the data in the Apple Event descriptor *x*. Simple
+ AppleEvent data types (integer, text, float) are returned as their obvious
+ Python counterparts. Apple Event lists are returned as Python lists, and the
+ list elements are recursively unpacked. Object references (ex. ``line 3 of
+ document 1``) are returned as instances of :class:`aetypes.ObjectSpecifier`,
+ unless ``formodulename`` is specified. AppleEvent descriptors with descriptor
+ type typeFSS are returned as :class:`FSSpec` objects. AppleEvent record
+ descriptors are returned as Python dictionaries, with 4-character string keys
+ and elements recursively unpacked.
+
+ The optional ``formodulename`` argument is used by the stub packages generated
+ by :mod:`gensuitemodule`, and ensures that the OSA classes for object specifiers
+ are looked up in the correct module. This ensures that if, say, the Finder
+ returns an object specifier for a window you get an instance of
+ ``Finder.Window`` and not a generic ``aetypes.Window``. The former knows about
+ all the properties and elements a window has in the Finder, while the latter
+ knows no such things.

+:mod:`aetools` --- OSA client support
+=====================================
+
+.. module:: aetools
+ :platform: Mac
+ :synopsis: Basic support for sending Apple Events
+ :deprecated:
+.. sectionauthor:: Jack Jansen <[email protected]>
+.. moduleauthor:: Jack Jansen
+
+The :mod:`aetools` module contains the basic functionality on which Python
+AppleScript client support is built. It also imports and re-exports the core
+functionality of the :mod:`aetypes` and :mod:`aepack` modules. The stub packages
+generated by :mod:`gensuitemodule` import the relevant portions of
+:mod:`aetools`, so usually you do not need to import it yourself. The exception
+to this is when you cannot use a generated suite package and need lower-level
+access to scripting.
+
+The :mod:`aetools` module itself uses the AppleEvent support provided by the
+:mod:`Carbon.AE` module. This has one drawback: you need access to the window
+manager, see section :ref:`osx-gui-scripts` for details. This restriction may be
+lifted in future releases.
+
+.. note::
+
+ This module has been removed in Python 3.x.
+
+
+The :mod:`aetools` module defines the following functions:
+
+
+.. function:: packevent(ae, parameters, attributes)
+
+ Stores parameters and attributes in a pre-created ``Carbon.AE.AEDesc`` object.
+ ``parameters`` and ``attributes`` are dictionaries mapping 4-character OSA
+ parameter keys to Python objects. The objects are packed using
+ ``aepack.pack()``.
+
+
+.. function:: unpackevent(ae[, formodulename])
+
+ Recursively unpacks a ``Carbon.AE.AEDesc`` event to Python objects. The function
+ returns the parameter dictionary and the attribute dictionary. The
+ ``formodulename`` argument is used by generated stub packages to control where
+ AppleScript classes are looked up.
+
+
+.. function:: keysubst(arguments, keydict)
+
+ Converts a Python keyword argument dictionary ``arguments`` to the format
+ required by ``packevent`` by replacing the keys, which are Python identifiers,
+ by the four-character OSA keys according to the mapping specified in
+ ``keydict``. Used by the generated suite packages.
+
+
+.. function:: enumsubst(arguments, key, edict)
+
+ If the ``arguments`` dictionary contains an entry for ``key`` convert the value
+ for that entry according to dictionary ``edict``. This converts human-readable
+ Python enumeration names to the OSA 4-character codes. Used by the generated
+ suite packages.
+
+The :mod:`aetools` module defines the following class:
+
+
+.. class:: TalkTo([signature=None, start=0, timeout=0])
+
+ Base class for the proxy used to talk to an application. ``signature`` overrides
+ the class attribute ``_signature`` (which is usually set by subclasses) and is
+ the 4-char creator code defining the application to talk to. ``start`` can be
+ set to true to enable running the application on class instantiation.
+ ``timeout`` can be specified to change the default timeout used while waiting
+ for an AppleEvent reply.
+
+
+.. method:: TalkTo._start()
+
+ Test whether the application is running, and attempt to start it if not.
+
+
+.. method:: TalkTo.send(code, subcode[, parameters, attributes])
+
+ Create the AppleEvent ``Carbon.AE.AEDesc`` for the verb with the OSA designation
+ ``code, subcode`` (which are the usual 4-character strings), pack the
+ ``parameters`` and ``attributes`` into it, send it to the target application,
+ wait for the reply, unpack the reply with ``unpackevent`` and return the reply
+ appleevent, the unpacked return values as a dictionary and the return
+ attributes.

+:mod:`aetypes` --- AppleEvent objects
+=====================================
+
+.. module:: aetypes
+ :platform: Mac
+ :synopsis: Python representation of the Apple Event Object Model.
+ :deprecated:
+.. sectionauthor:: Vincent Marchetti <[email protected]>
+.. moduleauthor:: Jack Jansen
+
+The :mod:`aetypes` defines classes used to represent Apple Event data
+descriptors and Apple Event object specifiers.
+
+Apple Event data is contained in descriptors, and these descriptors are typed.
+For many descriptors the Python representation is simply the corresponding
+Python type: ``typeText`` in OSA is a Python string, ``typeFloat`` is a float,
+etc. For OSA types that have no direct Python counterpart this module declares
+classes. Packing and unpacking instances of these classes is handled
+automatically by :mod:`aepack`.
+
+An object specifier is essentially an address of an object implemented in a
+Apple Event server. An Apple Event specifier is used as the direct object for an
+Apple Event or as the argument of an optional parameter. The :mod:`aetypes`
+module contains the base classes for OSA classes and properties, which are used
+by the packages generated by :mod:`gensuitemodule` to populate the classes and
+properties in a given suite.
+
+For reasons of backward compatibility, and for cases where you need to script an
+application for which you have not generated the stub package this module also
+contains object specifiers for a number of common OSA classes such as
+``Document``, ``Window``, ``Character``, etc.
+
+.. note::
+
+ This module has been removed in Python 3.x.
+
+
+
+The :mod:`AEObjects` module defines the following classes to represent Apple
+Event descriptor data:
+
+
+.. class:: Unknown(type, data)
+
+ The representation of OSA descriptor data for which the :mod:`aepack` and
+ :mod:`aetypes` modules have no support, i.e. anything that is not represented by
+ the other classes here and that is not equivalent to a simple Python value.
+
+
+.. class:: Enum(enum)
+
+ An enumeration value with the given 4-character string value.
+
+
+.. class:: InsertionLoc(of, pos)
+
+ Position ``pos`` in object ``of``.
+
+
+.. class:: Boolean(bool)
+
+ A boolean.
+
+
+.. class:: StyledText(style, text)
+
+ Text with style information (font, face, etc) included.
+
+
+.. class:: AEText(script, style, text)
+
+ Text with script system and style information included.
+
+
+.. class:: IntlText(script, language, text)
+
+ Text with script system and language information included.
+
+
+.. class:: IntlWritingCode(script, language)
+
+ Script system and language information.
+
+
+.. class:: QDPoint(v, h)
+

+
+
+.. class:: QDRectangle(v0, h0, v1, h1)
+
+ A quickdraw rectangle.
+
+
+.. class:: RGBColor(r, g, b)
+
+ A color.
+
+
+.. class:: Type(type)
+
+ An OSA type value with the given 4-character name.
+
+
+.. class:: Keyword(name)
+
+ An OSA keyword with the given 4-character name.
+
+
+.. class:: Range(start, stop)
+

+.. class:: Ordinal(abso)
+
+ Non-numeric absolute positions, such as ``"firs"``, first, or ``"midd"``,

+
+
+.. class:: Logical(logc, term)
+
+ The logical expression of applying operator ``logc`` to ``term``.
+
+
+.. class:: Comparison(obj1, relo, obj2)
+
+ The comparison ``relo`` of ``obj1`` to ``obj2``.
+
+The following classes are used as base classes by the generated stub packages to
+represent AppleScript classes and properties in Python:
+
+
+.. class:: ComponentItem(which[, fr])
+
+ Abstract baseclass for an OSA class. The subclass should set the class attribute
+ ``want`` to the 4-character OSA class code. Instances of subclasses of this
+ class are equivalent to AppleScript Object Specifiers. Upon instantiation you
+ should pass a selector in ``which``, and optionally a parent object in ``fr``.
+
+
+.. class:: NProperty(fr)
+
+ Abstract baseclass for an OSA property. The subclass should set the class
+ attributes ``want`` and ``which`` to designate which property we are talking
+ about. Instances of subclasses of this class are Object Specifiers.
+
+
+.. class:: ObjectSpecifier(want, form, seld[, fr])
+
+ Base class of ``ComponentItem`` and ``NProperty``, a general OSA Object
+ Specifier. See the Apple Open Scripting Architecture documentation for the
+ parameters. Note that this class is not abstract.

+:mod:`aifc` --- Read and write AIFF and AIFC files
+==================================================
+
+.. module:: aifc
+ :synopsis: Read and write audio files in AIFF or AIFC format.
+
+
+.. index::
+ single: Audio Interchange File Format
+ single: AIFF
+ single: AIFF-C
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/aifc.py`
+
+--------------
+
+This module provides support for reading and writing AIFF and AIFF-C files.
+AIFF is Audio Interchange File Format, a format for storing digital audio
+samples in a file. AIFF-C is a newer version of the format that includes the
+ability to compress the audio data.
+
+.. note::
+
+ Some operations may only work under IRIX; these will raise :exc:`ImportError`
+ when attempting to import the :mod:`cl` module, which is only available on
+ IRIX.
+
+Audio files have a number of parameters that describe the audio data. The
+sampling rate or frame rate is the number of times per second the sound is
+sampled. The number of channels indicate if the audio is mono, stereo, or
+quadro. Each frame consists of one sample per channel. The sample size is the
+size in bytes of each sample. Thus a frame consists of
+*nchannels*\**samplesize* bytes, and a second's worth of audio consists of
+*nchannels*\**samplesize*\**framerate* bytes.
+
+For example, CD quality audio has a sample size of two bytes (16 bits), uses two
+channels (stereo) and has a frame rate of 44,100 frames/second. This gives a
+frame size of 4 bytes (2\*2), and a second's worth occupies 2\*2\*44100 bytes
+(176,400 bytes).
+
+Module :mod:`aifc` defines the following function:
+
+
+.. function:: open(file[, mode])
+
+ Open an AIFF or AIFF-C file and return an object instance with methods that are
+ described below. The argument *file* is either a string naming a file or a file
+ object. *mode* must be ``'r'`` or ``'rb'`` when the file must be opened for
+ reading, or ``'w'`` or ``'wb'`` when the file must be opened for writing. If
+ omitted, ``file.mode`` is used if it exists, otherwise ``'rb'`` is used. When
+ used for writing, the file object should be seekable, unless you know ahead of
+ time how many samples you are going to write in total and use
+ :meth:`writeframesraw` and :meth:`setnframes`.
+
+Objects returned by :func:`.open` when a file is opened for reading have the
+following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: aifc.getnchannels()
+
+ Return the number of audio channels (1 for mono, 2 for stereo).
+
+
+.. method:: aifc.getsampwidth()
+
+ Return the size in bytes of individual samples.
+
+
+.. method:: aifc.getframerate()
+
+ Return the sampling rate (number of audio frames per second).
+
+
+.. method:: aifc.getnframes()
+
+ Return the number of audio frames in the file.
+
+
+.. method:: aifc.getcomptype()
+
+ Return a four-character string describing the type of compression used in the
+ audio file. For AIFF files, the returned value is ``'NONE'``.
+
+
+.. method:: aifc.getcompname()
+
+ Return a human-readable description of the type of compression used in the audio
+ file. For AIFF files, the returned value is ``'not compressed'``.
+
+
+.. method:: aifc.getparams()
+
+ Return a tuple consisting of all of the above values in the above order.
+
+
+.. method:: aifc.getmarkers()
+
+ Return a list of markers in the audio file. A marker consists of a tuple of
+ three elements. The first is the mark ID (an integer), the second is the mark
+ position in frames from the beginning of the data (an integer), the third is the
+ name of the mark (a string).
+
+
+.. method:: aifc.getmark(id)
+
+ Return the tuple as described in :meth:`getmarkers` for the mark with the given
+ *id*.
+
+
+.. method:: aifc.readframes(nframes)
+
+ Read and return the next *nframes* frames from the audio file. The returned
+ data is a string containing for each frame the uncompressed samples of all
+ channels.
+
+
+.. method:: aifc.rewind()
+
+ Rewind the read pointer. The next :meth:`readframes` will start from the
+ beginning.
+
+
+.. method:: aifc.setpos(pos)
+
+ Seek to the specified frame number.
+
+
+.. method:: aifc.tell()
+
+ Return the current frame number.
+
+
+.. method:: aifc.close()
+
+ Close the AIFF file. After calling this method, the object can no longer be
+ used.
+
+Objects returned by :func:`.open` when a file is opened for writing have all the
+above methods, except for :meth:`readframes` and :meth:`setpos`. In addition
+the following methods exist. The :meth:`get\*` methods can only be called after
+the corresponding :meth:`set\*` methods have been called. Before the first
+:meth:`writeframes` or :meth:`writeframesraw`, all parameters except for the
+number of frames must be filled in.
+
+
+.. method:: aifc.aiff()
+
+ Create an AIFF file. The default is that an AIFF-C file is created, unless the
+ name of the file ends in ``'.aiff'`` in which case the default is an AIFF file.
+
+
+.. method:: aifc.aifc()
+
+ Create an AIFF-C file. The default is that an AIFF-C file is created, unless
+ the name of the file ends in ``'.aiff'`` in which case the default is an AIFF
+ file.
+
+
+.. method:: aifc.setnchannels(nchannels)
+
+ Specify the number of channels in the audio file.
+
+
+.. method:: aifc.setsampwidth(width)
+
+ Specify the size in bytes of audio samples.
+
+
+.. method:: aifc.setframerate(rate)
+
+ Specify the sampling frequency in frames per second.
+
+
+.. method:: aifc.setnframes(nframes)
+
+ Specify the number of frames that are to be written to the audio file. If this
+ parameter is not set, or not set correctly, the file needs to support seeking.
+
+
+.. method:: aifc.setcomptype(type, name)
+
+ .. index::
+ single: u-LAW
+ single: A-LAW
+ single: G.722
+
+ Specify the compression type. If not specified, the audio data will not be
+ compressed. In AIFF files, compression is not possible. The name parameter
+ should be a human-readable description of the compression type, the type
+ parameter should be a four-character string. Currently the following
+ compression types are supported: NONE, ULAW, ALAW, G722.
+
+
+.. method:: aifc.setparams(nchannels, sampwidth, framerate, comptype, compname)
+
+ Set all the above parameters at once. The argument is a tuple consisting of the
+ various parameters. This means that it is possible to use the result of a
+ :meth:`getparams` call as argument to :meth:`setparams`.
+
+
+.. method:: aifc.setmark(id, pos, name)
+
+ Add a mark with the given id (larger than 0), and the given name at the given
+ position. This method can be called at any time before :meth:`close`.
+
+
+.. method:: aifc.tell()
+
+ Return the current write position in the output file. Useful in combination
+ with :meth:`setmark`.
+
+
+.. method:: aifc.writeframes(data)
+
+ Write data to the output file. This method can only be called after the audio
+ file parameters have been set.
+
+
+.. method:: aifc.writeframesraw(data)
+
+ Like :meth:`writeframes`, except that the header of the audio file is not
+ updated.
+
+
+.. method:: aifc.close()
+
+ Close the AIFF file. The header of the file is updated to reflect the actual
+ size of the audio data. After calling this method, the object can no longer be
+ used.

+:mod:`anydbm` --- Generic access to DBM-style databases
+=======================================================
+
+.. module:: anydbm
+ :synopsis: Generic interface to DBM-style database modules.
+
+
+.. note::
+ The :mod:`anydbm` module has been renamed to :mod:`dbm` in Python 3. The
+ :term:`2to3` tool will automatically adapt imports when converting your
+ sources to Python 3.
+
+.. index::
+ module: dbhash
+ module: bsddb
+ module: gdbm
+ module: dbm
+ module: dumbdbm
+
+:mod:`anydbm` is a generic interface to variants of the DBM database ---
+:mod:`dbhash` (requires :mod:`bsddb`), :mod:`gdbm`, or :mod:`dbm`. If none of
+these modules is installed, the slow-but-simple implementation in module
+:mod:`dumbdbm` will be used.
+
+
+.. function:: open(filename[, flag[, mode]])
+
+ Open the database file *filename* and return a corresponding object.
+
+ If the database file already exists, the :mod:`whichdb` module is used to
+ determine its type and the appropriate module is used; if it does not exist,
+ the first module listed above that can be imported is used.
+
+ The optional *flag* argument must be one of these values:
+
+ +---------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | Value | Meaning |
+ +=========+===========================================+
+ | ``'r'`` | Open existing database for reading only |
+ | | (default) |
+ +---------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'w'`` | Open existing database for reading and |
+ | | writing |
+ +---------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'c'`` | Open database for reading and writing, |
+ | | creating it if it doesn't exist |
+ +---------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'n'`` | Always create a new, empty database, open |
+ | | for reading and writing |
+ +---------+-------------------------------------------+
+
+ If not specified, the default value is ``'r'``.
+
+ The optional *mode* argument is the Unix mode of the file, used only when the
+ database has to be created. It defaults to octal ``0666`` (and will be
+ modified by the prevailing umask).
+
+
+.. exception:: error
+
+ A tuple containing the exceptions that can be raised by each of the supported
+ modules, with a unique exception also named :exc:`anydbm.error` as the first
+ item --- the latter is used when :exc:`anydbm.error` is raised.
+
+The object returned by :func:`.open` supports most of the same functionality as
+dictionaries; keys and their corresponding values can be stored, retrieved, and
+deleted, and the :meth:`has_key` and :meth:`keys` methods are available. Keys
+and values must always be strings.
+
+The following example records some hostnames and a corresponding title, and
+then prints out the contents of the database::
+
+ import anydbm
+
+ # Open database, creating it if necessary.
+ db = anydbm.open('cache', 'c')
+
+ # Record some values
+ db['www.python.org'] = 'Python Website'
+ db['www.cnn.com'] = 'Cable News Network'
+
+ # Loop through contents. Other dictionary methods
+ # such as .keys(), .values() also work.
+ for k, v in db.iteritems():
+ print k, '\t', v
+
+ # Storing a non-string key or value will raise an exception (most
+ # likely a TypeError).
+ db['www.yahoo.com'] = 4
+
+ # Close when done.
+ db.close()

+:mod:`argparse` --- Parser for command-line options, arguments and sub-commands
+===============================================================================
+
+.. module:: argparse
+ :synopsis: Command-line option and argument parsing library.
+.. moduleauthor:: Steven Bethard <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Steven Bethard <[email protected]>
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/argparse.py`
+
+--------------
+
+.. sidebar:: Tutorial
+
+ This page contains the API reference information. For a more gentle
+ introduction to Python command-line parsing, have a look at the
+ :ref:`argparse tutorial <argparse-tutorial>`.
+
+The :mod:`argparse` module makes it easy to write user-friendly command-line
+interfaces. The program defines what arguments it requires, and :mod:`argparse`
+will figure out how to parse those out of :data:`sys.argv`. The :mod:`argparse`
+module also automatically generates help and usage messages and issues errors
+when users give the program invalid arguments.
+
+
+Example
+-------
+
+The following code is a Python program that takes a list of integers and
+produces either the sum or the max::
+
+ import argparse
+
+ parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(description='Process some integers.')
+ parser.add_argument('integers', metavar='N', type=int, nargs='+',
+ help='an integer for the accumulator')
+ parser.add_argument('--sum', dest='accumulate', action='store_const',
+ const=sum, default=max,
+ help='sum the integers (default: find the max)')
+
+ args = parser.parse_args()
+ print args.accumulate(args.integers)
+
+Assuming the Python code above is saved into a file called ``prog.py``, it can
+be run at the command line and provides useful help messages::
+
+ $ prog.py -h
+ usage: prog.py [-h] [--sum] N [N ...]
+
+ Process some integers.
+
+ positional arguments:
+ N an integer for the accumulator
+
+ optional arguments:
+ -h, --help show this help message and exit
+ --sum sum the integers (default: find the max)
+
+When run with the appropriate arguments, it prints either the sum or the max of
+the command-line integers::
+
+ $ prog.py 1 2 3 4
+ 4
+
+ $ prog.py 1 2 3 4 --sum
+ 10
+
+If invalid arguments are passed in, it will issue an error::
+
+ $ prog.py a b c
+ usage: prog.py [-h] [--sum] N [N ...]
+ prog.py: error: argument N: invalid int value: 'a'
+
+The following sections walk you through this example.
+
+
+Creating a parser
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The first step in using the :mod:`argparse` is creating an
+:class:`ArgumentParser` object::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(description='Process some integers.')
+
+The :class:`ArgumentParser` object will hold all the information necessary to
+parse the command line into Python data types.
+
+
+Adding arguments
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Filling an :class:`ArgumentParser` with information about program arguments is
+done by making calls to the :meth:`~ArgumentParser.add_argument` method.
+Generally, these calls tell the :class:`ArgumentParser` how to take the strings
+on the command line and turn them into objects. This information is stored and
+used when :meth:`~ArgumentParser.parse_args` is called. For example::
+
+ >>> parser.add_argument('integers', metavar='N', type=int, nargs='+',
+ ... help='an integer for the accumulator')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--sum', dest='accumulate', action='store_const',
+ ... const=sum, default=max,
+ ... help='sum the integers (default: find the max)')
+
+Later, calling :meth:`~ArgumentParser.parse_args` will return an object with
+two attributes, ``integers`` and ``accumulate``. The ``integers`` attribute
+will be a list of one or more ints, and the ``accumulate`` attribute will be
+either the :func:`sum` function, if ``--sum`` was specified at the command line,
+or the :func:`max` function if it was not.
+
+
+Parsing arguments
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+:class:`ArgumentParser` parses arguments through the
+:meth:`~ArgumentParser.parse_args` method. This will inspect the command line,
+convert each argument to the appropriate type and then invoke the appropriate action.
+In most cases, this means a simple :class:`Namespace` object will be built up from
+attributes parsed out of the command line::
+
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['--sum', '7', '-1', '42'])
+ Namespace(accumulate=<built-in function sum>, integers=[7, -1, 42])
+
+In a script, :meth:`~ArgumentParser.parse_args` will typically be called with no
+arguments, and the :class:`ArgumentParser` will automatically determine the
+command-line arguments from :data:`sys.argv`.
+
+
+ArgumentParser objects
+----------------------
+
+.. class:: ArgumentParser(prog=None, usage=None, description=None, \
+ epilog=None, parents=[], \
+ formatter_class=argparse.HelpFormatter, \
+ prefix_chars='-', fromfile_prefix_chars=None, \
+ argument_default=None, conflict_handler='error', \
+ add_help=True)
+
+ Create a new :class:`ArgumentParser` object. All parameters should be passed
+ as keyword arguments. Each parameter has its own more detailed description
+ below, but in short they are:
+
+ * prog_ - The name of the program (default: ``sys.argv[0]``)
+
+ * usage_ - The string describing the program usage (default: generated from
+ arguments added to parser)
+
+ * description_ - Text to display before the argument help (default: none)
+
+ * epilog_ - Text to display after the argument help (default: none)
+
+ * parents_ - A list of :class:`ArgumentParser` objects whose arguments should
+ also be included
+
+ * formatter_class_ - A class for customizing the help output
+
+ * prefix_chars_ - The set of characters that prefix optional arguments
+ (default: '-')
+
+ * fromfile_prefix_chars_ - The set of characters that prefix files from
+ which additional arguments should be read (default: ``None``)
+
+ * argument_default_ - The global default value for arguments
+ (default: ``None``)
+
+ * conflict_handler_ - The strategy for resolving conflicting optionals
+ (usually unnecessary)
+
+ * add_help_ - Add a -h/--help option to the parser (default: ``True``)
+
+The following sections describe how each of these are used.
+
+
+prog
+^^^^
+
+By default, :class:`ArgumentParser` objects uses ``sys.argv[0]`` to determine
+how to display the name of the program in help messages. This default is almost
+always desirable because it will make the help messages match how the program was
+invoked on the command line. For example, consider a file named
+``myprogram.py`` with the following code::
+
+ import argparse
+ parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ parser.add_argument('--foo', help='foo help')
+ args = parser.parse_args()
+
+The help for this program will display ``myprogram.py`` as the program name
+(regardless of where the program was invoked from)::
+
+ $ python myprogram.py --help
+ usage: myprogram.py [-h] [--foo FOO]
+
+ optional arguments:
+ -h, --help show this help message and exit
+ --foo FOO foo help
+ $ cd ..
+ $ python subdir\myprogram.py --help
+ usage: myprogram.py [-h] [--foo FOO]
+
+ optional arguments:
+ -h, --help show this help message and exit
+ --foo FOO foo help
+
+To change this default behavior, another value can be supplied using the
+``prog=`` argument to :class:`ArgumentParser`::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='myprogram')
+ >>> parser.print_help()
+ usage: myprogram [-h]
+
+ optional arguments:
+ -h, --help show this help message and exit
+
+Note that the program name, whether determined from ``sys.argv[0]`` or from the
+``prog=`` argument, is available to help messages using the ``%(prog)s`` format
+specifier.
+
+::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='myprogram')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--foo', help='foo of the %(prog)s program')
+ >>> parser.print_help()
+ usage: myprogram [-h] [--foo FOO]
+
+ optional arguments:
+ -h, --help show this help message and exit
+ --foo FOO foo of the myprogram program
+
+
+usage
+^^^^^
+
+By default, :class:`ArgumentParser` calculates the usage message from the
+arguments it contains::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='PROG')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--foo', nargs='?', help='foo help')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('bar', nargs='+', help='bar help')
+ >>> parser.print_help()
+ usage: PROG [-h] [--foo [FOO]] bar [bar ...]
+
+ positional arguments:
+ bar bar help
+
+ optional arguments:
+ -h, --help show this help message and exit
+ --foo [FOO] foo help
+
+The default message can be overridden with the ``usage=`` keyword argument::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='PROG', usage='%(prog)s [options]')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--foo', nargs='?', help='foo help')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('bar', nargs='+', help='bar help')
+ >>> parser.print_help()
+ usage: PROG [options]
+
+ positional arguments:
+ bar bar help
+
+ optional arguments:
+ -h, --help show this help message and exit
+ --foo [FOO] foo help
+
+The ``%(prog)s`` format specifier is available to fill in the program name in
+your usage messages.
+
+
+description
+^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Most calls to the :class:`ArgumentParser` constructor will use the
+``description=`` keyword argument. This argument gives a brief description of
+what the program does and how it works. In help messages, the description is
+displayed between the command-line usage string and the help messages for the
+various arguments::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(description='A foo that bars')
+ >>> parser.print_help()
+ usage: argparse.py [-h]
+
+ A foo that bars
+
+ optional arguments:
+ -h, --help show this help message and exit
+
+By default, the description will be line-wrapped so that it fits within the
+given space. To change this behavior, see the formatter_class_ argument.
+
+
+epilog
+^^^^^^
+
+Some programs like to display additional description of the program after the
+description of the arguments. Such text can be specified using the ``epilog=``
+argument to :class:`ArgumentParser`::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(
+ ... description='A foo that bars',
+ ... epilog="And that's how you'd foo a bar")
+ >>> parser.print_help()
+ usage: argparse.py [-h]
+
+ A foo that bars
+
+ optional arguments:
+ -h, --help show this help message and exit
+
+ And that's how you'd foo a bar
+
+As with the description_ argument, the ``epilog=`` text is by default
+line-wrapped, but this behavior can be adjusted with the formatter_class_
+argument to :class:`ArgumentParser`.
+
+
+parents
+^^^^^^^
+
+Sometimes, several parsers share a common set of arguments. Rather than
+repeating the definitions of these arguments, a single parser with all the
+shared arguments and passed to ``parents=`` argument to :class:`ArgumentParser`
+can be used. The ``parents=`` argument takes a list of :class:`ArgumentParser`
+objects, collects all the positional and optional actions from them, and adds
+these actions to the :class:`ArgumentParser` object being constructed::
+
+ >>> parent_parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(add_help=False)
+ >>> parent_parser.add_argument('--parent', type=int)
+
+ >>> foo_parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(parents=[parent_parser])
+ >>> foo_parser.add_argument('foo')
+ >>> foo_parser.parse_args(['--parent', '2', 'XXX'])
+ Namespace(foo='XXX', parent=2)
+
+ >>> bar_parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(parents=[parent_parser])
+ >>> bar_parser.add_argument('--bar')
+ >>> bar_parser.parse_args(['--bar', 'YYY'])
+ Namespace(bar='YYY', parent=None)
+
+Note that most parent parsers will specify ``add_help=False``. Otherwise, the
+:class:`ArgumentParser` will see two ``-h/--help`` options (one in the parent
+and one in the child) and raise an error.
+
+.. note::
+ You must fully initialize the parsers before passing them via ``parents=``.
+ If you change the parent parsers after the child parser, those changes will
+ not be reflected in the child.
+
+
+formatter_class
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+:class:`ArgumentParser` objects allow the help formatting to be customized by
+specifying an alternate formatting class. Currently, there are three such
+classes:
+
+.. class:: RawDescriptionHelpFormatter
+ RawTextHelpFormatter
+ ArgumentDefaultsHelpFormatter
+
+The first two allow more control over how textual descriptions are displayed,
+while the last automatically adds information about argument default values.
+
+By default, :class:`ArgumentParser` objects line-wrap the description_ and
+epilog_ texts in command-line help messages::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(
+ ... prog='PROG',
+ ... description='''this description
+ ... was indented weird
+ ... but that is okay''',
+ ... epilog='''
+ ... likewise for this epilog whose whitespace will
+ ... be cleaned up and whose words will be wrapped
+ ... across a couple lines''')
+ >>> parser.print_help()
+ usage: PROG [-h]
+
+ this description was indented weird but that is okay
+
+ optional arguments:
+ -h, --help show this help message and exit
+
+ likewise for this epilog whose whitespace will be cleaned up and whose words
+ will be wrapped across a couple lines
+
+Passing :class:`RawDescriptionHelpFormatter` as ``formatter_class=``
+indicates that description_ and epilog_ are already correctly formatted and
+should not be line-wrapped::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(
+ ... prog='PROG',
+ ... formatter_class=argparse.RawDescriptionHelpFormatter,
+ ... description=textwrap.dedent('''\
+ ... Please do not mess up this text!
+ ... --------------------------------
+ ... I have indented it
+ ... exactly the way
+ ... I want it
+ ... '''))
+ >>> parser.print_help()
+ usage: PROG [-h]
+
+ Please do not mess up this text!
+ --------------------------------
+ I have indented it
+ exactly the way
+ I want it
+
+ optional arguments:
+ -h, --help show this help message and exit
+
+:class:`RawTextHelpFormatter` maintains whitespace for all sorts of help text,
+including argument descriptions.
+
+The other formatter class available, :class:`ArgumentDefaultsHelpFormatter`,
+will add information about the default value of each of the arguments::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(
+ ... prog='PROG',
+ ... formatter_class=argparse.ArgumentDefaultsHelpFormatter)
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--foo', type=int, default=42, help='FOO!')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('bar', nargs='*', default=[1, 2, 3], help='BAR!')
+ >>> parser.print_help()
+ usage: PROG [-h] [--foo FOO] [bar [bar ...]]
+
+ positional arguments:
+ bar BAR! (default: [1, 2, 3])
+
+ optional arguments:
+ -h, --help show this help message and exit
+ --foo FOO FOO! (default: 42)
+
+
+prefix_chars
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Most command-line options will use ``-`` as the prefix, e.g. ``-f/--foo``.
+Parsers that need to support different or additional prefix
+characters, e.g. for options
+like ``+f`` or ``/foo``, may specify them using the ``prefix_chars=`` argument
+to the ArgumentParser constructor::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='PROG', prefix_chars='-+')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('+f')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('++bar')
+ >>> parser.parse_args('+f X ++bar Y'.split())
+ Namespace(bar='Y', f='X')
+
+The ``prefix_chars=`` argument defaults to ``'-'``. Supplying a set of
+characters that does not include ``-`` will cause ``-f/--foo`` options to be
+disallowed.
+
+
+fromfile_prefix_chars
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Sometimes, for example when dealing with a particularly long argument lists, it
+may make sense to keep the list of arguments in a file rather than typing it out
+at the command line. If the ``fromfile_prefix_chars=`` argument is given to the
+:class:`ArgumentParser` constructor, then arguments that start with any of the
+specified characters will be treated as files, and will be replaced by the
+arguments they contain. For example::
+
+ >>> with open('args.txt', 'w') as fp:
+ ... fp.write('-f\nbar')
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(fromfile_prefix_chars='@')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('-f')
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['-f', 'foo', '@args.txt'])
+ Namespace(f='bar')
+
+Arguments read from a file must by default be one per line (but see also
+:meth:`~ArgumentParser.convert_arg_line_to_args`) and are treated as if they
+were in the same place as the original file referencing argument on the command
+line. So in the example above, the expression ``['-f', 'foo', '@args.txt']``
+is considered equivalent to the expression ``['-f', 'foo', '-f', 'bar']``.
+
+The ``fromfile_prefix_chars=`` argument defaults to ``None``, meaning that
+arguments will never be treated as file references.
+
+
+argument_default
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Generally, argument defaults are specified either by passing a default to
+:meth:`~ArgumentParser.add_argument` or by calling the
+:meth:`~ArgumentParser.set_defaults` methods with a specific set of name-value
+pairs. Sometimes however, it may be useful to specify a single parser-wide
+default for arguments. This can be accomplished by passing the
+``argument_default=`` keyword argument to :class:`ArgumentParser`. For example,
+to globally suppress attribute creation on :meth:`~ArgumentParser.parse_args`
+calls, we supply ``argument_default=SUPPRESS``::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(argument_default=argparse.SUPPRESS)
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--foo')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('bar', nargs='?')
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['--foo', '1', 'BAR'])
+ Namespace(bar='BAR', foo='1')
+ >>> parser.parse_args([])
+ Namespace()
+
+
+conflict_handler
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+:class:`ArgumentParser` objects do not allow two actions with the same option
+string. By default, :class:`ArgumentParser` objects raises an exception if an
+attempt is made to create an argument with an option string that is already in
+use::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='PROG')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('-f', '--foo', help='old foo help')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--foo', help='new foo help')
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ ..
+ ArgumentError: argument --foo: conflicting option string(s): --foo
+
+Sometimes (e.g. when using parents_) it may be useful to simply override any
+older arguments with the same option string. To get this behavior, the value
+``'resolve'`` can be supplied to the ``conflict_handler=`` argument of
+:class:`ArgumentParser`::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='PROG', conflict_handler='resolve')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('-f', '--foo', help='old foo help')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--foo', help='new foo help')
+ >>> parser.print_help()
+ usage: PROG [-h] [-f FOO] [--foo FOO]
+
+ optional arguments:
+ -h, --help show this help message and exit
+ -f FOO old foo help
+ --foo FOO new foo help
+
+Note that :class:`ArgumentParser` objects only remove an action if all of its
+option strings are overridden. So, in the example above, the old ``-f/--foo``
+action is retained as the ``-f`` action, because only the ``--foo`` option
+string was overridden.
+
+
+add_help
+^^^^^^^^
+
+By default, ArgumentParser objects add an option which simply displays
+the parser's help message. For example, consider a file named
+``myprogram.py`` containing the following code::
+
+ import argparse
+ parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ parser.add_argument('--foo', help='foo help')
+ args = parser.parse_args()
+
+If ``-h`` or ``--help`` is supplied at the command line, the ArgumentParser
+help will be printed::
+
+ $ python myprogram.py --help
+ usage: myprogram.py [-h] [--foo FOO]
+
+ optional arguments:
+ -h, --help show this help message and exit
+ --foo FOO foo help
+
+Occasionally, it may be useful to disable the addition of this help option.
+This can be achieved by passing ``False`` as the ``add_help=`` argument to
+:class:`ArgumentParser`::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='PROG', add_help=False)
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--foo', help='foo help')
+ >>> parser.print_help()
+ usage: PROG [--foo FOO]
+
+ optional arguments:
+ --foo FOO foo help
+
+The help option is typically ``-h/--help``. The exception to this is
+if the ``prefix_chars=`` is specified and does not include ``-``, in
+which case ``-h`` and ``--help`` are not valid options. In
+this case, the first character in ``prefix_chars`` is used to prefix
+the help options::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='PROG', prefix_chars='+/')
+ >>> parser.print_help()
+ usage: PROG [-h]
+
+ optional arguments:
+ -h, --help show this help message and exit
+
+
+The add_argument() method
+-------------------------
+
+.. method:: ArgumentParser.add_argument(name or flags..., [action], [nargs], \
+ [const], [default], [type], [choices], [required], \
+ [help], [metavar], [dest])
+
+ Define how a single command-line argument should be parsed. Each parameter
+ has its own more detailed description below, but in short they are:
+
+ * `name or flags`_ - Either a name or a list of option strings, e.g. ``foo``
+ or ``-f, --foo``.
+
+ * action_ - The basic type of action to be taken when this argument is
+ encountered at the command line.
+
+ * nargs_ - The number of command-line arguments that should be consumed.
+
+ * const_ - A constant value required by some action_ and nargs_ selections.
+
+ * default_ - The value produced if the argument is absent from the
+ command line.
+
+ * type_ - The type to which the command-line argument should be converted.
+
+ * choices_ - A container of the allowable values for the argument.
+
+ * required_ - Whether or not the command-line option may be omitted
+ (optionals only).
+
+ * help_ - A brief description of what the argument does.
+
+ * metavar_ - A name for the argument in usage messages.
+
+ * dest_ - The name of the attribute to be added to the object returned by
+ :meth:`parse_args`.
+
+The following sections describe how each of these are used.
+
+
+name or flags
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The :meth:`~ArgumentParser.add_argument` method must know whether an optional
+argument, like ``-f`` or ``--foo``, or a positional argument, like a list of
+filenames, is expected. The first arguments passed to
+:meth:`~ArgumentParser.add_argument` must therefore be either a series of
+flags, or a simple argument name. For example, an optional argument could
+be created like::
+
+ >>> parser.add_argument('-f', '--foo')
+
+while a positional argument could be created like::
+
+ >>> parser.add_argument('bar')
+
+When :meth:`~ArgumentParser.parse_args` is called, optional arguments will be
+identified by the ``-`` prefix, and the remaining arguments will be assumed to
+be positional::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='PROG')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('-f', '--foo')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('bar')
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['BAR'])
+ Namespace(bar='BAR', foo=None)
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['BAR', '--foo', 'FOO'])
+ Namespace(bar='BAR', foo='FOO')
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['--foo', 'FOO'])
+ usage: PROG [-h] [-f FOO] bar
+ PROG: error: too few arguments
+
+
+action
+^^^^^^
+
+:class:`ArgumentParser` objects associate command-line arguments with actions. These
+actions can do just about anything with the command-line arguments associated with
+them, though most actions simply add an attribute to the object returned by
+:meth:`~ArgumentParser.parse_args`. The ``action`` keyword argument specifies
+how the command-line arguments should be handled. The supported actions are:
+
+* ``'store'`` - This just stores the argument's value. This is the default
+ action. For example::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--foo')
+ >>> parser.parse_args('--foo 1'.split())
+ Namespace(foo='1')
+
+* ``'store_const'`` - This stores the value specified by the const_ keyword
+ argument. (Note that the const_ keyword argument defaults to the rather
+ unhelpful ``None``.) The ``'store_const'`` action is most commonly used with
+ optional arguments that specify some sort of flag. For example::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--foo', action='store_const', const=42)
+ >>> parser.parse_args('--foo'.split())
+ Namespace(foo=42)
+
+* ``'store_true'`` and ``'store_false'`` - These are special cases of
+ ``'store_const'`` using for storing the values ``True`` and ``False``
+ respectively. In addition, they create default values of *False* and *True*
+ respectively. For example::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--foo', action='store_true')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--bar', action='store_false')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--baz', action='store_false')
+ >>> parser.parse_args('--foo --bar'.split())
+ Namespace(bar=False, baz=True, foo=True)
+
+* ``'append'`` - This stores a list, and appends each argument value to the
+ list. This is useful to allow an option to be specified multiple times.
+ Example usage::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--foo', action='append')
+ >>> parser.parse_args('--foo 1 --foo 2'.split())
+ Namespace(foo=['1', '2'])
+
+* ``'append_const'`` - This stores a list, and appends the value specified by
+ the const_ keyword argument to the list. (Note that the const_ keyword
+ argument defaults to ``None``.) The ``'append_const'`` action is typically
+ useful when multiple arguments need to store constants to the same list. For
+ example::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--str', dest='types', action='append_const', const=str)
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--int', dest='types', action='append_const', const=int)
+ >>> parser.parse_args('--str --int'.split())
+ Namespace(types=[<type 'str'>, <type 'int'>])
+
+* ``'count'`` - This counts the number of times a keyword argument occurs. For
+ example, this is useful for increasing verbosity levels::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--verbose', '-v', action='count')
+ >>> parser.parse_args('-vvv'.split())
+ Namespace(verbose=3)
+
+* ``'help'`` - This prints a complete help message for all the options in the
+ current parser and then exits. By default a help action is automatically
+ added to the parser. See :class:`ArgumentParser` for details of how the
+ output is created.
+
+* ``'version'`` - This expects a ``version=`` keyword argument in the
+ :meth:`~ArgumentParser.add_argument` call, and prints version information
+ and exits when invoked::
+
+ >>> import argparse
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='PROG')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--version', action='version', version='%(prog)s 2.0')
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['--version'])
+ PROG 2.0
+
+You can also specify an arbitrary action by passing an object that implements
+the Action API. The easiest way to do this is to extend
+:class:`argparse.Action`, supplying an appropriate ``__call__`` method. The
+``__call__`` method should accept four parameters:
+
+* ``parser`` - The ArgumentParser object which contains this action.
+
+* ``namespace`` - The :class:`Namespace` object that will be returned by
+ :meth:`~ArgumentParser.parse_args`. Most actions add an attribute to this
+ object.
+
+* ``values`` - The associated command-line arguments, with any type conversions
+ applied. (Type conversions are specified with the type_ keyword argument to
+ :meth:`~ArgumentParser.add_argument`.)
+
+* ``option_string`` - The option string that was used to invoke this action.
+ The ``option_string`` argument is optional, and will be absent if the action
+ is associated with a positional argument.
+
+An example of a custom action::
+
+ >>> class FooAction(argparse.Action):
+ ... def __call__(self, parser, namespace, values, option_string=None):
+ ... print '%r %r %r' % (namespace, values, option_string)
+ ... setattr(namespace, self.dest, values)
+ ...
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--foo', action=FooAction)
+ >>> parser.add_argument('bar', action=FooAction)
+ >>> args = parser.parse_args('1 --foo 2'.split())
+ Namespace(bar=None, foo=None) '1' None
+ Namespace(bar='1', foo=None) '2' '--foo'
+ >>> args
+ Namespace(bar='1', foo='2')
+
+
+nargs
+^^^^^
+
+ArgumentParser objects usually associate a single command-line argument with a
+single action to be taken. The ``nargs`` keyword argument associates a
+different number of command-line arguments with a single action. The supported
+values are:
+
+* ``N`` (an integer). ``N`` arguments from the command line will be gathered
+ together into a list. For example::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--foo', nargs=2)
+ >>> parser.add_argument('bar', nargs=1)
+ >>> parser.parse_args('c --foo a b'.split())
+ Namespace(bar=['c'], foo=['a', 'b'])
+
+ Note that ``nargs=1`` produces a list of one item. This is different from
+ the default, in which the item is produced by itself.
+
+* ``'?'``. One argument will be consumed from the command line if possible, and
+ produced as a single item. If no command-line argument is present, the value from
+ default_ will be produced. Note that for optional arguments, there is an
+ additional case - the option string is present but not followed by a
+ command-line argument. In this case the value from const_ will be produced. Some
+ examples to illustrate this::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--foo', nargs='?', const='c', default='d')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('bar', nargs='?', default='d')
+ >>> parser.parse_args('XX --foo YY'.split())
+ Namespace(bar='XX', foo='YY')
+ >>> parser.parse_args('XX --foo'.split())
+ Namespace(bar='XX', foo='c')
+ >>> parser.parse_args(''.split())
+ Namespace(bar='d', foo='d')
+
+ One of the more common uses of ``nargs='?'`` is to allow optional input and
+ output files::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ >>> parser.add_argument('infile', nargs='?', type=argparse.FileType('r'),
+ ... default=sys.stdin)
+ >>> parser.add_argument('outfile', nargs='?', type=argparse.FileType('w'),
+ ... default=sys.stdout)
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['input.txt', 'output.txt'])
+ Namespace(infile=<open file 'input.txt', mode 'r' at 0x...>,
+ outfile=<open file 'output.txt', mode 'w' at 0x...>)
+ >>> parser.parse_args([])
+ Namespace(infile=<open file '<stdin>', mode 'r' at 0x...>,
+ outfile=<open file '<stdout>', mode 'w' at 0x...>)
+
+* ``'*'``. All command-line arguments present are gathered into a list. Note that
+ it generally doesn't make much sense to have more than one positional argument
+ with ``nargs='*'``, but multiple optional arguments with ``nargs='*'`` is
+ possible. For example::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--foo', nargs='*')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--bar', nargs='*')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('baz', nargs='*')
+ >>> parser.parse_args('a b --foo x y --bar 1 2'.split())
+ Namespace(bar=['1', '2'], baz=['a', 'b'], foo=['x', 'y'])
+
+* ``'+'``. Just like ``'*'``, all command-line args present are gathered into a
+ list. Additionally, an error message will be generated if there wasn't at
+ least one command-line argument present. For example::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='PROG')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('foo', nargs='+')
+ >>> parser.parse_args('a b'.split())
+ Namespace(foo=['a', 'b'])
+ >>> parser.parse_args(''.split())
+ usage: PROG [-h] foo [foo ...]
+ PROG: error: too few arguments
+
+* ``argparse.REMAINDER``. All the remaining command-line arguments are gathered
+ into a list. This is commonly useful for command line utilities that dispatch
+ to other command line utilities::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='PROG')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--foo')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('command')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('args', nargs=argparse.REMAINDER)
+ >>> print parser.parse_args('--foo B cmd --arg1 XX ZZ'.split())
+ Namespace(args=['--arg1', 'XX', 'ZZ'], command='cmd', foo='B')
+
+If the ``nargs`` keyword argument is not provided, the number of arguments consumed
+is determined by the action_. Generally this means a single command-line argument
+will be consumed and a single item (not a list) will be produced.
+
+
+const
+^^^^^
+
+The ``const`` argument of :meth:`~ArgumentParser.add_argument` is used to hold
+constant values that are not read from the command line but are required for
+the various :class:`ArgumentParser` actions. The two most common uses of it are:
+
+* When :meth:`~ArgumentParser.add_argument` is called with
+ ``action='store_const'`` or ``action='append_const'``. These actions add the
+ ``const`` value to one of the attributes of the object returned by
+ :meth:`~ArgumentParser.parse_args`. See the action_ description for examples.
+
+* When :meth:`~ArgumentParser.add_argument` is called with option strings
+ (like ``-f`` or ``--foo``) and ``nargs='?'``. This creates an optional
+ argument that can be followed by zero or one command-line arguments.
+ When parsing the command line, if the option string is encountered with no
+ command-line argument following it, the value of ``const`` will be assumed instead.
+ See the nargs_ description for examples.
+
+The ``const`` keyword argument defaults to ``None``.
+
+
+default
+^^^^^^^
+
+All optional arguments and some positional arguments may be omitted at the
+command line. The ``default`` keyword argument of
+:meth:`~ArgumentParser.add_argument`, whose value defaults to ``None``,
+specifies what value should be used if the command-line argument is not present.
+For optional arguments, the ``default`` value is used when the option string
+was not present at the command line::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--foo', default=42)
+ >>> parser.parse_args('--foo 2'.split())
+ Namespace(foo='2')
+ >>> parser.parse_args(''.split())
+ Namespace(foo=42)
+
+If the ``default`` value is a string, the parser parses the value as if it
+were a command-line argument. In particular, the parser applies any type_
+conversion argument, if provided, before setting the attribute on the
+:class:`Namespace` return value. Otherwise, the parser uses the value as is::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--length', default='10', type=int)
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--width', default=10.5, type=int)
+ >>> parser.parse_args()
+ Namespace(length=10, width=10.5)
+
+For positional arguments with nargs_ equal to ``?`` or ``*``, the ``default`` value
+is used when no command-line argument was present::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ >>> parser.add_argument('foo', nargs='?', default=42)
+ >>> parser.parse_args('a'.split())
+ Namespace(foo='a')
+ >>> parser.parse_args(''.split())
+ Namespace(foo=42)
+
+
+Providing ``default=argparse.SUPPRESS`` causes no attribute to be added if the
+command-line argument was not present.::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--foo', default=argparse.SUPPRESS)
+ >>> parser.parse_args([])
+ Namespace()
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['--foo', '1'])
+ Namespace(foo='1')
+
+
+type
+^^^^
+
+By default, :class:`ArgumentParser` objects read command-line arguments in as simple
+strings. However, quite often the command-line string should instead be
+interpreted as another type, like a :class:`float` or :class:`int`. The
+``type`` keyword argument of :meth:`~ArgumentParser.add_argument` allows any
+necessary type-checking and type conversions to be performed. Common built-in
+types and functions can be used directly as the value of the ``type`` argument::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ >>> parser.add_argument('foo', type=int)
+ >>> parser.add_argument('bar', type=file)
+ >>> parser.parse_args('2 temp.txt'.split())
+ Namespace(bar=<open file 'temp.txt', mode 'r' at 0x...>, foo=2)
+
+See the section on the default_ keyword argument for information on when the
+``type`` argument is applied to default arguments.
+
+To ease the use of various types of files, the argparse module provides the
+factory FileType which takes the ``mode=`` and ``bufsize=`` arguments of the
+``file`` object. For example, ``FileType('w')`` can be used to create a
+writable file::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ >>> parser.add_argument('bar', type=argparse.FileType('w'))
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['out.txt'])
+ Namespace(bar=<open file 'out.txt', mode 'w' at 0x...>)
+
+``type=`` can take any callable that takes a single string argument and returns
+the converted value::
+
+ >>> def perfect_square(string):
+ ... value = int(string)
+ ... sqrt = math.sqrt(value)
+ ... if sqrt != int(sqrt):
+ ... msg = "%r is not a perfect square" % string
+ ... raise argparse.ArgumentTypeError(msg)
+ ... return value
+ ...
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='PROG')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('foo', type=perfect_square)
+ >>> parser.parse_args('9'.split())
+ Namespace(foo=9)
+ >>> parser.parse_args('7'.split())
+ usage: PROG [-h] foo
+ PROG: error: argument foo: '7' is not a perfect square
+
+The choices_ keyword argument may be more convenient for type checkers that
+simply check against a range of values::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='PROG')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('foo', type=int, choices=xrange(5, 10))
+ >>> parser.parse_args('7'.split())
+ Namespace(foo=7)
+ >>> parser.parse_args('11'.split())
+ usage: PROG [-h] {5,6,7,8,9}
+ PROG: error: argument foo: invalid choice: 11 (choose from 5, 6, 7, 8, 9)
+
+See the choices_ section for more details.
+
+
+choices
+^^^^^^^
+
+Some command-line arguments should be selected from a restricted set of values.
+These can be handled by passing a container object as the *choices* keyword
+argument to :meth:`~ArgumentParser.add_argument`. When the command line is
+parsed, argument values will be checked, and an error message will be displayed
+if the argument was not one of the acceptable values::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='game.py')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('move', choices=['rock', 'paper', 'scissors'])
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['rock'])
+ Namespace(move='rock')
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['fire'])
+ usage: game.py [-h] {rock,paper,scissors}
+ game.py: error: argument move: invalid choice: 'fire' (choose from 'rock',
+ 'paper', 'scissors')
+
+Note that inclusion in the *choices* container is checked after any type_
+conversions have been performed, so the type of the objects in the *choices*
+container should match the type_ specified::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='doors.py')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('door', type=int, choices=range(1, 4))
+ >>> print(parser.parse_args(['3']))
+ Namespace(door=3)
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['4'])
+ usage: doors.py [-h] {1,2,3}
+ doors.py: error: argument door: invalid choice: 4 (choose from 1, 2, 3)
+
+Any object that supports the ``in`` operator can be passed as the *choices*
+value, so :class:`dict` objects, :class:`set` objects, custom containers,
+etc. are all supported.
+
+
+required
+^^^^^^^^
+
+In general, the :mod:`argparse` module assumes that flags like ``-f`` and ``--bar``
+indicate *optional* arguments, which can always be omitted at the command line.
+To make an option *required*, ``True`` can be specified for the ``required=``
+keyword argument to :meth:`~ArgumentParser.add_argument`::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--foo', required=True)
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['--foo', 'BAR'])
+ Namespace(foo='BAR')
+ >>> parser.parse_args([])
+ usage: argparse.py [-h] [--foo FOO]
+ argparse.py: error: option --foo is required
+
+As the example shows, if an option is marked as ``required``,
+:meth:`~ArgumentParser.parse_args` will report an error if that option is not
+present at the command line.
+
+.. note::
+
+ Required options are generally considered bad form because users expect
+ *options* to be *optional*, and thus they should be avoided when possible.
+
+
+help
+^^^^
+
+The ``help`` value is a string containing a brief description of the argument.
+When a user requests help (usually by using ``-h`` or ``--help`` at the
+command line), these ``help`` descriptions will be displayed with each
+argument::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='frobble')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--foo', action='store_true',
+ ... help='foo the bars before frobbling')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('bar', nargs='+',
+ ... help='one of the bars to be frobbled')
+ >>> parser.parse_args('-h'.split())
+ usage: frobble [-h] [--foo] bar [bar ...]
+
+ positional arguments:
+ bar one of the bars to be frobbled
+
+ optional arguments:
+ -h, --help show this help message and exit
+ --foo foo the bars before frobbling
+
+The ``help`` strings can include various format specifiers to avoid repetition
+of things like the program name or the argument default_. The available
+specifiers include the program name, ``%(prog)s`` and most keyword arguments to
+:meth:`~ArgumentParser.add_argument`, e.g. ``%(default)s``, ``%(type)s``, etc.::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='frobble')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('bar', nargs='?', type=int, default=42,
+ ... help='the bar to %(prog)s (default: %(default)s)')
+ >>> parser.print_help()
+ usage: frobble [-h] [bar]
+
+ positional arguments:
+ bar the bar to frobble (default: 42)
+
+ optional arguments:
+ -h, --help show this help message and exit
+
+:mod:`argparse` supports silencing the help entry for certain options, by
+setting the ``help`` value to ``argparse.SUPPRESS``::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='frobble')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--foo', help=argparse.SUPPRESS)
+ >>> parser.print_help()
+ usage: frobble [-h]
+
+ optional arguments:
+ -h, --help show this help message and exit
+
+
+metavar
+^^^^^^^
+
+When :class:`ArgumentParser` generates help messages, it needs some way to refer
+to each expected argument. By default, ArgumentParser objects use the dest_
+value as the "name" of each object. By default, for positional argument
+actions, the dest_ value is used directly, and for optional argument actions,
+the dest_ value is uppercased. So, a single positional argument with
+``dest='bar'`` will be referred to as ``bar``. A single
+optional argument ``--foo`` that should be followed by a single command-line argument
+will be referred to as ``FOO``. An example::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--foo')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('bar')
+ >>> parser.parse_args('X --foo Y'.split())
+ Namespace(bar='X', foo='Y')
+ >>> parser.print_help()
+ usage: [-h] [--foo FOO] bar
+
+ positional arguments:
+ bar
+
+ optional arguments:
+ -h, --help show this help message and exit
+ --foo FOO
+
+An alternative name can be specified with ``metavar``::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--foo', metavar='YYY')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('bar', metavar='XXX')
+ >>> parser.parse_args('X --foo Y'.split())
+ Namespace(bar='X', foo='Y')
+ >>> parser.print_help()
+ usage: [-h] [--foo YYY] XXX
+
+ positional arguments:
+ XXX
+
+ optional arguments:
+ -h, --help show this help message and exit
+ --foo YYY
+
+Note that ``metavar`` only changes the *displayed* name - the name of the
+attribute on the :meth:`~ArgumentParser.parse_args` object is still determined
+by the dest_ value.
+
+Different values of ``nargs`` may cause the metavar to be used multiple times.
+Providing a tuple to ``metavar`` specifies a different display for each of the
+arguments::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='PROG')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('-x', nargs=2)
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--foo', nargs=2, metavar=('bar', 'baz'))
+ >>> parser.print_help()
+ usage: PROG [-h] [-x X X] [--foo bar baz]
+
+ optional arguments:
+ -h, --help show this help message and exit
+ -x X X
+ --foo bar baz
+
+
+dest
+^^^^
+
+Most :class:`ArgumentParser` actions add some value as an attribute of the
+object returned by :meth:`~ArgumentParser.parse_args`. The name of this
+attribute is determined by the ``dest`` keyword argument of
+:meth:`~ArgumentParser.add_argument`. For positional argument actions,
+``dest`` is normally supplied as the first argument to
+:meth:`~ArgumentParser.add_argument`::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ >>> parser.add_argument('bar')
+ >>> parser.parse_args('XXX'.split())
+ Namespace(bar='XXX')
+
+For optional argument actions, the value of ``dest`` is normally inferred from
+the option strings. :class:`ArgumentParser` generates the value of ``dest`` by
+taking the first long option string and stripping away the initial ``--``
+string. If no long option strings were supplied, ``dest`` will be derived from
+the first short option string by stripping the initial ``-`` character. Any
+internal ``-`` characters will be converted to ``_`` characters to make sure
+the string is a valid attribute name. The examples below illustrate this
+behavior::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ >>> parser.add_argument('-f', '--foo-bar', '--foo')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('-x', '-y')
+ >>> parser.parse_args('-f 1 -x 2'.split())
+ Namespace(foo_bar='1', x='2')
+ >>> parser.parse_args('--foo 1 -y 2'.split())
+ Namespace(foo_bar='1', x='2')
+
+``dest`` allows a custom attribute name to be provided::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--foo', dest='bar')
+ >>> parser.parse_args('--foo XXX'.split())
+ Namespace(bar='XXX')
+
+
+The parse_args() method
+-----------------------
+
+.. method:: ArgumentParser.parse_args(args=None, namespace=None)
+
+ Convert argument strings to objects and assign them as attributes of the
+ namespace. Return the populated namespace.
+
+ Previous calls to :meth:`add_argument` determine exactly what objects are
+ created and how they are assigned. See the documentation for
+ :meth:`add_argument` for details.
+
+ By default, the argument strings are taken from :data:`sys.argv`, and a new empty
+ :class:`Namespace` object is created for the attributes.
+
+
+Option value syntax
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The :meth:`~ArgumentParser.parse_args` method supports several ways of
+specifying the value of an option (if it takes one). In the simplest case, the
+option and its value are passed as two separate arguments::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='PROG')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('-x')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--foo')
+ >>> parser.parse_args('-x X'.split())
+ Namespace(foo=None, x='X')
+ >>> parser.parse_args('--foo FOO'.split())
+ Namespace(foo='FOO', x=None)
+
+For long options (options with names longer than a single character), the option
+and value can also be passed as a single command-line argument, using ``=`` to
+separate them::
+
+ >>> parser.parse_args('--foo=FOO'.split())
+ Namespace(foo='FOO', x=None)
+
+For short options (options only one character long), the option and its value
+can be concatenated::
+
+ >>> parser.parse_args('-xX'.split())
+ Namespace(foo=None, x='X')
+
+Several short options can be joined together, using only a single ``-`` prefix,
+as long as only the last option (or none of them) requires a value::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='PROG')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('-x', action='store_true')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('-y', action='store_true')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('-z')
+ >>> parser.parse_args('-xyzZ'.split())
+ Namespace(x=True, y=True, z='Z')
+
+
+Invalid arguments
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+While parsing the command line, :meth:`~ArgumentParser.parse_args` checks for a
+variety of errors, including ambiguous options, invalid types, invalid options,
+wrong number of positional arguments, etc. When it encounters such an error,
+it exits and prints the error along with a usage message::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='PROG')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--foo', type=int)
+ >>> parser.add_argument('bar', nargs='?')
+
+ >>> # invalid type
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['--foo', 'spam'])
+ usage: PROG [-h] [--foo FOO] [bar]
+ PROG: error: argument --foo: invalid int value: 'spam'
+
+ >>> # invalid option
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['--bar'])
+ usage: PROG [-h] [--foo FOO] [bar]
+ PROG: error: no such option: --bar
+
+ >>> # wrong number of arguments
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['spam', 'badger'])
+ usage: PROG [-h] [--foo FOO] [bar]
+ PROG: error: extra arguments found: badger
+
+
+Arguments containing ``-``
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The :meth:`~ArgumentParser.parse_args` method attempts to give errors whenever
+the user has clearly made a mistake, but some situations are inherently
+ambiguous. For example, the command-line argument ``-1`` could either be an
+attempt to specify an option or an attempt to provide a positional argument.
+The :meth:`~ArgumentParser.parse_args` method is cautious here: positional
+arguments may only begin with ``-`` if they look like negative numbers and
+there are no options in the parser that look like negative numbers::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='PROG')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('-x')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('foo', nargs='?')
+
+ >>> # no negative number options, so -1 is a positional argument
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['-x', '-1'])
+ Namespace(foo=None, x='-1')
+
+ >>> # no negative number options, so -1 and -5 are positional arguments
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['-x', '-1', '-5'])
+ Namespace(foo='-5', x='-1')
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='PROG')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('-1', dest='one')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('foo', nargs='?')
+
+ >>> # negative number options present, so -1 is an option
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['-1', 'X'])
+ Namespace(foo=None, one='X')
+
+ >>> # negative number options present, so -2 is an option
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['-2'])
+ usage: PROG [-h] [-1 ONE] [foo]
+ PROG: error: no such option: -2
+
+ >>> # negative number options present, so both -1s are options
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['-1', '-1'])
+ usage: PROG [-h] [-1 ONE] [foo]
+ PROG: error: argument -1: expected one argument
+
+If you have positional arguments that must begin with ``-`` and don't look
+like negative numbers, you can insert the pseudo-argument ``'--'`` which tells
+:meth:`~ArgumentParser.parse_args` that everything after that is a positional
+argument::
+
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['--', '-f'])
+ Namespace(foo='-f', one=None)
+
+
+Argument abbreviations
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The :meth:`~ArgumentParser.parse_args` method allows long options to be
+abbreviated if the abbreviation is unambiguous::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='PROG')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('-bacon')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('-badger')
+ >>> parser.parse_args('-bac MMM'.split())
+ Namespace(bacon='MMM', badger=None)
+ >>> parser.parse_args('-bad WOOD'.split())
+ Namespace(bacon=None, badger='WOOD')
+ >>> parser.parse_args('-ba BA'.split())
+ usage: PROG [-h] [-bacon BACON] [-badger BADGER]
+ PROG: error: ambiguous option: -ba could match -badger, -bacon
+
+An error is produced for arguments that could produce more than one options.
+
+
+Beyond ``sys.argv``
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Sometimes it may be useful to have an ArgumentParser parse arguments other than those
+of :data:`sys.argv`. This can be accomplished by passing a list of strings to
+:meth:`~ArgumentParser.parse_args`. This is useful for testing at the
+interactive prompt::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ >>> parser.add_argument(
+ ... 'integers', metavar='int', type=int, choices=xrange(10),
+ ... nargs='+', help='an integer in the range 0..9')
+ >>> parser.add_argument(
+ ... '--sum', dest='accumulate', action='store_const', const=sum,
+ ... default=max, help='sum the integers (default: find the max)')
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['1', '2', '3', '4'])
+ Namespace(accumulate=<built-in function max>, integers=[1, 2, 3, 4])
+ >>> parser.parse_args('1 2 3 4 --sum'.split())
+ Namespace(accumulate=<built-in function sum>, integers=[1, 2, 3, 4])
+
+
+The Namespace object
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. class:: Namespace
+
+ Simple class used by default by :meth:`~ArgumentParser.parse_args` to create
+ an object holding attributes and return it.
+
+This class is deliberately simple, just an :class:`object` subclass with a
+readable string representation. If you prefer to have dict-like view of the
+attributes, you can use the standard Python idiom, :func:`vars`::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--foo')
+ >>> args = parser.parse_args(['--foo', 'BAR'])
+ >>> vars(args)
+ {'foo': 'BAR'}
+
+It may also be useful to have an :class:`ArgumentParser` assign attributes to an
+already existing object, rather than a new :class:`Namespace` object. This can
+be achieved by specifying the ``namespace=`` keyword argument::
+
+ >>> class C(object):
+ ... pass
+ ...
+ >>> c = C()
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--foo')
+ >>> parser.parse_args(args=['--foo', 'BAR'], namespace=c)
+ >>> c.foo
+ 'BAR'
+
+
+Other utilities
+---------------
+
+Sub-commands
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. method:: ArgumentParser.add_subparsers()
+
+ Many programs split up their functionality into a number of sub-commands,
+ for example, the ``svn`` program can invoke sub-commands like ``svn
+ checkout``, ``svn update``, and ``svn commit``. Splitting up functionality
+ this way can be a particularly good idea when a program performs several
+ different functions which require different kinds of command-line arguments.
+ :class:`ArgumentParser` supports the creation of such sub-commands with the
+ :meth:`add_subparsers` method. The :meth:`add_subparsers` method is normally
+ called with no arguments and returns a special action object. This object
+ has a single method, :meth:`~ArgumentParser.add_parser`, which takes a
+ command name and any :class:`ArgumentParser` constructor arguments, and
+ returns an :class:`ArgumentParser` object that can be modified as usual.
+
+ Some example usage::
+
+ >>> # create the top-level parser
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='PROG')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--foo', action='store_true', help='foo help')
+ >>> subparsers = parser.add_subparsers(help='sub-command help')
+ >>>
+ >>> # create the parser for the "a" command
+ >>> parser_a = subparsers.add_parser('a', help='a help')
+ >>> parser_a.add_argument('bar', type=int, help='bar help')
+ >>>
+ >>> # create the parser for the "b" command
+ >>> parser_b = subparsers.add_parser('b', help='b help')
+ >>> parser_b.add_argument('--baz', choices='XYZ', help='baz help')
+ >>>
+ >>> # parse some argument lists
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['a', '12'])
+ Namespace(bar=12, foo=False)
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['--foo', 'b', '--baz', 'Z'])
+ Namespace(baz='Z', foo=True)
+
+ Note that the object returned by :meth:`parse_args` will only contain
+ attributes for the main parser and the subparser that was selected by the
+ command line (and not any other subparsers). So in the example above, when
+ the ``a`` command is specified, only the ``foo`` and ``bar`` attributes are
+ present, and when the ``b`` command is specified, only the ``foo`` and
+ ``baz`` attributes are present.
+
+ Similarly, when a help message is requested from a subparser, only the help
+ for that particular parser will be printed. The help message will not
+ include parent parser or sibling parser messages. (A help message for each
+ subparser command, however, can be given by supplying the ``help=`` argument
+ to :meth:`add_parser` as above.)
+
+ ::
+
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['--help'])
+ usage: PROG [-h] [--foo] {a,b} ...
+
+ positional arguments:
+ {a,b} sub-command help
+ a a help
+ b b help
+
+ optional arguments:
+ -h, --help show this help message and exit
+ --foo foo help
+
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['a', '--help'])
+ usage: PROG a [-h] bar
+
+ positional arguments:
+ bar bar help
+
+ optional arguments:
+ -h, --help show this help message and exit
+
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['b', '--help'])
+ usage: PROG b [-h] [--baz {X,Y,Z}]
+
+ optional arguments:
+ -h, --help show this help message and exit
+ --baz {X,Y,Z} baz help
+
+ The :meth:`add_subparsers` method also supports ``title`` and ``description``
+ keyword arguments. When either is present, the subparser's commands will
+ appear in their own group in the help output. For example::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ >>> subparsers = parser.add_subparsers(title='subcommands',
+ ... description='valid subcommands',
+ ... help='additional help')
+ >>> subparsers.add_parser('foo')
+ >>> subparsers.add_parser('bar')
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['-h'])
+ usage: [-h] {foo,bar} ...
+
+ optional arguments:
+ -h, --help show this help message and exit
+
+ subcommands:
+ valid subcommands
+
+ {foo,bar} additional help
+
+
+ One particularly effective way of handling sub-commands is to combine the use
+ of the :meth:`add_subparsers` method with calls to :meth:`set_defaults` so
+ that each subparser knows which Python function it should execute. For
+ example::
+
+ >>> # sub-command functions
+ >>> def foo(args):
+ ... print args.x * args.y
+ ...
+ >>> def bar(args):
+ ... print '((%s))' % args.z
+ ...
+ >>> # create the top-level parser
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ >>> subparsers = parser.add_subparsers()
+ >>>
+ >>> # create the parser for the "foo" command
+ >>> parser_foo = subparsers.add_parser('foo')
+ >>> parser_foo.add_argument('-x', type=int, default=1)
+ >>> parser_foo.add_argument('y', type=float)
+ >>> parser_foo.set_defaults(func=foo)
+ >>>
+ >>> # create the parser for the "bar" command
+ >>> parser_bar = subparsers.add_parser('bar')
+ >>> parser_bar.add_argument('z')
+ >>> parser_bar.set_defaults(func=bar)
+ >>>
+ >>> # parse the args and call whatever function was selected
+ >>> args = parser.parse_args('foo 1 -x 2'.split())
+ >>> args.func(args)
+ 2.0
+ >>>
+ >>> # parse the args and call whatever function was selected
+ >>> args = parser.parse_args('bar XYZYX'.split())
+ >>> args.func(args)
+ ((XYZYX))
+
+ This way, you can let :meth:`parse_args` do the job of calling the
+ appropriate function after argument parsing is complete. Associating
+ functions with actions like this is typically the easiest way to handle the
+ different actions for each of your subparsers. However, if it is necessary
+ to check the name of the subparser that was invoked, the ``dest`` keyword
+ argument to the :meth:`add_subparsers` call will work::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ >>> subparsers = parser.add_subparsers(dest='subparser_name')
+ >>> subparser1 = subparsers.add_parser('1')
+ >>> subparser1.add_argument('-x')
+ >>> subparser2 = subparsers.add_parser('2')
+ >>> subparser2.add_argument('y')
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['2', 'frobble'])
+ Namespace(subparser_name='2', y='frobble')
+
+
+FileType objects
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. class:: FileType(mode='r', bufsize=None)
+
+ The :class:`FileType` factory creates objects that can be passed to the type
+ argument of :meth:`ArgumentParser.add_argument`. Arguments that have
+ :class:`FileType` objects as their type will open command-line arguments as files
+ with the requested modes and buffer sizes::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--output', type=argparse.FileType('wb', 0))
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['--output', 'out'])
+ Namespace(output=<open file 'out', mode 'wb' at 0x...>)
+
+ FileType objects understand the pseudo-argument ``'-'`` and automatically
+ convert this into ``sys.stdin`` for readable :class:`FileType` objects and
+ ``sys.stdout`` for writable :class:`FileType` objects::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ >>> parser.add_argument('infile', type=argparse.FileType('r'))
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['-'])
+ Namespace(infile=<open file '<stdin>', mode 'r' at 0x...>)
+
+
+Argument groups
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. method:: ArgumentParser.add_argument_group(title=None, description=None)
+
+ By default, :class:`ArgumentParser` groups command-line arguments into
+ "positional arguments" and "optional arguments" when displaying help
+ messages. When there is a better conceptual grouping of arguments than this
+ default one, appropriate groups can be created using the
+ :meth:`add_argument_group` method::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='PROG', add_help=False)
+ >>> group = parser.add_argument_group('group')
+ >>> group.add_argument('--foo', help='foo help')
+ >>> group.add_argument('bar', help='bar help')
+ >>> parser.print_help()
+ usage: PROG [--foo FOO] bar
+
+ group:
+ bar bar help
+ --foo FOO foo help
+
+ The :meth:`add_argument_group` method returns an argument group object which
+ has an :meth:`~ArgumentParser.add_argument` method just like a regular
+ :class:`ArgumentParser`. When an argument is added to the group, the parser
+ treats it just like a normal argument, but displays the argument in a
+ separate group for help messages. The :meth:`add_argument_group` method
+ accepts *title* and *description* arguments which can be used to
+ customize this display::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='PROG', add_help=False)
+ >>> group1 = parser.add_argument_group('group1', 'group1 description')
+ >>> group1.add_argument('foo', help='foo help')
+ >>> group2 = parser.add_argument_group('group2', 'group2 description')
+ >>> group2.add_argument('--bar', help='bar help')
+ >>> parser.print_help()
+ usage: PROG [--bar BAR] foo
+
+ group1:
+ group1 description
+
+ foo foo help
+
+ group2:
+ group2 description
+
+ --bar BAR bar help
+
+ Note that any arguments not in your user-defined groups will end up back
+ in the usual "positional arguments" and "optional arguments" sections.
+
+
+Mutual exclusion
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. method:: add_mutually_exclusive_group(required=False)
+
+ Create a mutually exclusive group. :mod:`argparse` will make sure that only
+ one of the arguments in the mutually exclusive group was present on the
+ command line::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='PROG')
+ >>> group = parser.add_mutually_exclusive_group()
+ >>> group.add_argument('--foo', action='store_true')
+ >>> group.add_argument('--bar', action='store_false')
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['--foo'])
+ Namespace(bar=True, foo=True)
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['--bar'])
+ Namespace(bar=False, foo=False)
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['--foo', '--bar'])
+ usage: PROG [-h] [--foo | --bar]
+ PROG: error: argument --bar: not allowed with argument --foo
+
+ The :meth:`add_mutually_exclusive_group` method also accepts a *required*
+ argument, to indicate that at least one of the mutually exclusive arguments
+ is required::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='PROG')
+ >>> group = parser.add_mutually_exclusive_group(required=True)
+ >>> group.add_argument('--foo', action='store_true')
+ >>> group.add_argument('--bar', action='store_false')
+ >>> parser.parse_args([])
+ usage: PROG [-h] (--foo | --bar)
+ PROG: error: one of the arguments --foo --bar is required
+
+ Note that currently mutually exclusive argument groups do not support the
+ *title* and *description* arguments of
+ :meth:`~ArgumentParser.add_argument_group`.
+
+
+Parser defaults
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. method:: ArgumentParser.set_defaults(**kwargs)
+
+ Most of the time, the attributes of the object returned by :meth:`parse_args`
+ will be fully determined by inspecting the command-line arguments and the argument
+ actions. :meth:`set_defaults` allows some additional
+ attributes that are determined without any inspection of the command line to
+ be added::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ >>> parser.add_argument('foo', type=int)
+ >>> parser.set_defaults(bar=42, baz='badger')
+ >>> parser.parse_args(['736'])
+ Namespace(bar=42, baz='badger', foo=736)
+
+ Note that parser-level defaults always override argument-level defaults::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--foo', default='bar')
+ >>> parser.set_defaults(foo='spam')
+ >>> parser.parse_args([])
+ Namespace(foo='spam')
+
+ Parser-level defaults can be particularly useful when working with multiple
+ parsers. See the :meth:`~ArgumentParser.add_subparsers` method for an
+ example of this type.
+
+.. method:: ArgumentParser.get_default(dest)
+
+ Get the default value for a namespace attribute, as set by either
+ :meth:`~ArgumentParser.add_argument` or by
+ :meth:`~ArgumentParser.set_defaults`::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--foo', default='badger')
+ >>> parser.get_default('foo')
+ 'badger'
+
+
+Printing help
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+In most typical applications, :meth:`~ArgumentParser.parse_args` will take
+care of formatting and printing any usage or error messages. However, several
+formatting methods are available:
+
+.. method:: ArgumentParser.print_usage(file=None)
+
+ Print a brief description of how the :class:`ArgumentParser` should be
+ invoked on the command line. If *file* is ``None``, :data:`sys.stdout` is
+ assumed.
+
+.. method:: ArgumentParser.print_help(file=None)
+
+ Print a help message, including the program usage and information about the
+ arguments registered with the :class:`ArgumentParser`. If *file* is
+ ``None``, :data:`sys.stdout` is assumed.
+
+There are also variants of these methods that simply return a string instead of
+printing it:
+
+.. method:: ArgumentParser.format_usage()
+
+ Return a string containing a brief description of how the
+ :class:`ArgumentParser` should be invoked on the command line.
+
+.. method:: ArgumentParser.format_help()
+
+ Return a string containing a help message, including the program usage and
+ information about the arguments registered with the :class:`ArgumentParser`.
+
+
+Partial parsing
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. method:: ArgumentParser.parse_known_args(args=None, namespace=None)
+
+Sometimes a script may only parse a few of the command-line arguments, passing
+the remaining arguments on to another script or program. In these cases, the
+:meth:`~ArgumentParser.parse_known_args` method can be useful. It works much like
+:meth:`~ArgumentParser.parse_args` except that it does not produce an error when
+extra arguments are present. Instead, it returns a two item tuple containing
+the populated namespace and the list of remaining argument strings.
+
+::
+
+ >>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ >>> parser.add_argument('--foo', action='store_true')
+ >>> parser.add_argument('bar')
+ >>> parser.parse_known_args(['--foo', '--badger', 'BAR', 'spam'])
+ (Namespace(bar='BAR', foo=True), ['--badger', 'spam'])
+
+
+Customizing file parsing
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. method:: ArgumentParser.convert_arg_line_to_args(arg_line)
+
+ Arguments that are read from a file (see the *fromfile_prefix_chars*
+ keyword argument to the :class:`ArgumentParser` constructor) are read one
+ argument per line. :meth:`convert_arg_line_to_args` can be overriden for
+ fancier reading.
+
+ This method takes a single argument *arg_line* which is a string read from
+ the argument file. It returns a list of arguments parsed from this string.
+ The method is called once per line read from the argument file, in order.
+
+ A useful override of this method is one that treats each space-separated word
+ as an argument::
+
+ def convert_arg_line_to_args(self, arg_line):
+ for arg in arg_line.split():
+ if not arg.strip():
+ continue
+ yield arg
+
+
+Exiting methods
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. method:: ArgumentParser.exit(status=0, message=None)
+
+ This method terminates the program, exiting with the specified *status*
+ and, if given, it prints a *message* before that.
+
+.. method:: ArgumentParser.error(message)
+
+ This method prints a usage message including the *message* to the
+ standard error and terminates the program with a status code of 2.
+
+
+.. _argparse-from-optparse:
+
+Upgrading optparse code
+-----------------------
+
+Originally, the :mod:`argparse` module had attempted to maintain compatibility
+with :mod:`optparse`. However, :mod:`optparse` was difficult to extend
+transparently, particularly with the changes required to support the new
+``nargs=`` specifiers and better usage messages. When most everything in
+:mod:`optparse` had either been copy-pasted over or monkey-patched, it no
+longer seemed practical to try to maintain the backwards compatibility.
+
+A partial upgrade path from :mod:`optparse` to :mod:`argparse`:
+
+* Replace all :meth:`optparse.OptionParser.add_option` calls with
+ :meth:`ArgumentParser.add_argument` calls.
+
+* Replace ``(options, args) = parser.parse_args()`` with ``args =
+ parser.parse_args()`` and add additional :meth:`ArgumentParser.add_argument`
+ calls for the positional arguments. Keep in mind that what was previously
+ called ``options``, now in :mod:`argparse` context is called ``args``.
+
+* Replace callback actions and the ``callback_*`` keyword arguments with
+ ``type`` or ``action`` arguments.
+
+* Replace string names for ``type`` keyword arguments with the corresponding
+ type objects (e.g. int, float, complex, etc).
+
+* Replace :class:`optparse.Values` with :class:`Namespace` and
+ :exc:`optparse.OptionError` and :exc:`optparse.OptionValueError` with
+ :exc:`ArgumentError`.
+
+* Replace strings with implicit arguments such as ``%default`` or ``%prog`` with
+ the standard Python syntax to use dictionaries to format strings, that is,
+ ``%(default)s`` and ``%(prog)s``.
+
+* Replace the OptionParser constructor ``version`` argument with a call to
+ ``parser.add_argument('--version', action='version', version='<the version>')``

+:mod:`array` --- Efficient arrays of numeric values
+===================================================
+
+.. module:: array
+ :synopsis: Space efficient arrays of uniformly typed numeric values.
+
+
+.. index:: single: arrays
+
+This module defines an object type which can compactly represent an array of
+basic values: characters, integers, floating point numbers. Arrays are sequence
+types and behave very much like lists, except that the type of objects stored in
+them is constrained. The type is specified at object creation time by using a
+:dfn:`type code`, which is a single character. The following type codes are
+defined:
+
++-----------+----------------+-------------------+-----------------------+
+| Type code | C Type | Python Type | Minimum size in bytes |
++===========+================+===================+=======================+
+| ``'c'`` | char | character | 1 |
++-----------+----------------+-------------------+-----------------------+
+| ``'b'`` | signed char | int | 1 |
++-----------+----------------+-------------------+-----------------------+
+| ``'B'`` | unsigned char | int | 1 |
++-----------+----------------+-------------------+-----------------------+
+| ``'u'`` | Py_UNICODE | Unicode character | 2 (see note) |
++-----------+----------------+-------------------+-----------------------+
+| ``'h'`` | signed short | int | 2 |
++-----------+----------------+-------------------+-----------------------+
+| ``'H'`` | unsigned short | int | 2 |
++-----------+----------------+-------------------+-----------------------+

+
+.. note::
+
+ The ``'u'`` typecode corresponds to Python's unicode character. On narrow
+ Unicode builds this is 2-bytes, on wide builds this is 4-bytes.
+
+The actual representation of values is determined by the machine architecture
+(strictly speaking, by the C implementation). The actual size can be accessed
+through the :attr:`itemsize` attribute. The values stored for ``'L'`` and
+``'I'`` items will be represented as Python long integers when retrieved,
+because Python's plain integer type cannot represent the full range of C's
+unsigned (long) integers.
+
+The module defines the following type:
+
+
+.. class:: array(typecode[, initializer])
+
+ A new array whose items are restricted by *typecode*, and initialized
+ from the optional *initializer* value, which must be a list, string, or iterable
+ over elements of the appropriate type.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ Formerly, only lists or strings were accepted.
+
+ If given a list or string, the initializer is passed to the new array's
+ :meth:`fromlist`, :meth:`fromstring`, or :meth:`fromunicode` method (see below)
+ to add initial items to the array. Otherwise, the iterable initializer is
+ passed to the :meth:`extend` method.
+
+
+.. data:: ArrayType
+
+ Obsolete alias for :class:`array`.
+
+Array objects support the ordinary sequence operations of indexing, slicing,
+concatenation, and multiplication. When using slice assignment, the assigned
+value must be an array object with the same type code; in all other cases,
+:exc:`TypeError` is raised. Array objects also implement the buffer interface,
+and may be used wherever buffer objects are supported.
+
+The following data items and methods are also supported:
+
+.. attribute:: array.typecode
+
+ The typecode character used to create the array.
+
+
+.. attribute:: array.itemsize
+
+ The length in bytes of one array item in the internal representation.
+
+
+.. method:: array.append(x)
+
+ Append a new item with value *x* to the end of the array.
+
+
+.. method:: array.buffer_info()
+
+ Return a tuple ``(address, length)`` giving the current memory address and the
+ length in elements of the buffer used to hold array's contents. The size of the
+ memory buffer in bytes can be computed as ``array.buffer_info()[1] *
+ array.itemsize``. This is occasionally useful when working with low-level (and
+ inherently unsafe) I/O interfaces that require memory addresses, such as certain
+ :c:func:`ioctl` operations. The returned numbers are valid as long as the array
+ exists and no length-changing operations are applied to it.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ When using array objects from code written in C or C++ (the only way to
+ effectively make use of this information), it makes more sense to use the buffer
+ interface supported by array objects. This method is maintained for backward
+ compatibility and should be avoided in new code. The buffer interface is
+ documented in :ref:`bufferobjects`.
+
+
+.. method:: array.byteswap()
+
+ "Byteswap" all items of the array. This is only supported for values which are
+ 1, 2, 4, or 8 bytes in size; for other types of values, :exc:`RuntimeError` is
+ raised. It is useful when reading data from a file written on a machine with a
+ different byte order.
+
+
+.. method:: array.count(x)
+
+ Return the number of occurrences of *x* in the array.
+
+
+.. method:: array.extend(iterable)
+
+ Append items from *iterable* to the end of the array. If *iterable* is another
+ array, it must have *exactly* the same type code; if not, :exc:`TypeError` will
+ be raised. If *iterable* is not an array, it must be iterable and its elements
+ must be the right type to be appended to the array.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ Formerly, the argument could only be another array.
+
+
+.. method:: array.fromfile(f, n)
+
+ Read *n* items (as machine values) from the file object *f* and append them to
+ the end of the array. If less than *n* items are available, :exc:`EOFError` is
+ raised, but the items that were available are still inserted into the array.
+ *f* must be a real built-in file object; something else with a :meth:`read`
+ method won't do.
+
+
+.. method:: array.fromlist(list)
+
+ Append items from the list. This is equivalent to ``for x in list:
+ a.append(x)`` except that if there is a type error, the array is unchanged.
+
+
+.. method:: array.fromstring(s)
+
+ Appends items from the string, interpreting the string as an array of machine
+ values (as if it had been read from a file using the :meth:`fromfile` method).
+
+
+.. method:: array.fromunicode(s)
+
+ Extends this array with data from the given unicode string. The array must
+ be a type ``'u'`` array; otherwise a :exc:`ValueError` is raised. Use
+ ``array.fromstring(unicodestring.encode(enc))`` to append Unicode data to an
+ array of some other type.
+
+
+.. method:: array.index(x)
+
+ Return the smallest *i* such that *i* is the index of the first occurrence of
+ *x* in the array.
+
+
+.. method:: array.insert(i, x)
+
+ Insert a new item with value *x* in the array before position *i*. Negative
+ values are treated as being relative to the end of the array.
+
+
+.. method:: array.pop([i])
+
+ Removes the item with the index *i* from the array and returns it. The optional
+ argument defaults to ``-1``, so that by default the last item is removed and
+ returned.
+
+
+.. method:: array.read(f, n)
+
+ .. deprecated:: 1.5.1
+ Use the :meth:`fromfile` method.
+
+ Read *n* items (as machine values) from the file object *f* and append them to
+ the end of the array. If less than *n* items are available, :exc:`EOFError` is
+ raised, but the items that were available are still inserted into the array.
+ *f* must be a real built-in file object; something else with a :meth:`read`
+ method won't do.
+
+
+.. method:: array.remove(x)
+
+ Remove the first occurrence of *x* from the array.
+
+
+.. method:: array.reverse()
+
+ Reverse the order of the items in the array.
+
+
+.. method:: array.tofile(f)
+
+ Write all items (as machine values) to the file object *f*.
+
+
+.. method:: array.tolist()
+
+ Convert the array to an ordinary list with the same items.
+
+
+.. method:: array.tostring()
+
+ Convert the array to an array of machine values and return the string
+ representation (the same sequence of bytes that would be written to a file by
+ the :meth:`tofile` method.)
+
+
+.. method:: array.tounicode()
+
+ Convert the array to a unicode string. The array must be a type ``'u'`` array;
+ otherwise a :exc:`ValueError` is raised. Use ``array.tostring().decode(enc)`` to
+ obtain a unicode string from an array of some other type.
+
+
+.. method:: array.write(f)
+
+ .. deprecated:: 1.5.1
+ Use the :meth:`tofile` method.
+
+ Write all items (as machine values) to the file object *f*.
+
+When an array object is printed or converted to a string, it is represented as
+``array(typecode, initializer)``. The *initializer* is omitted if the array is
+empty, otherwise it is a string if the *typecode* is ``'c'``, otherwise it is a
+list of numbers. The string is guaranteed to be able to be converted back to an
+array with the same type and value using :func:`eval`, so long as the
+:func:`array` function has been imported using ``from array import array``.
+Examples::
+
+ array('l')
+ array('c', 'hello world')
+ array('u', u'hello \u2641')

+:mod:`ast` --- Abstract Syntax Trees
+====================================
+
+.. module:: ast
+ :synopsis: Abstract Syntax Tree classes and manipulation.
+
+.. sectionauthor:: Martin v. Löwis <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Georg Brandl <[email protected]>
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.5
+ The low-level ``_ast`` module containing only the node classes.
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.6
+ The high-level ``ast`` module containing all helpers.
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/ast.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`ast` module helps Python applications to process trees of the Python
+abstract syntax grammar. The abstract syntax itself might change with each
+Python release; this module helps to find out programmatically what the current
+grammar looks like.
+
+An abstract syntax tree can be generated by passing :data:`ast.PyCF_ONLY_AST` as
+a flag to the :func:`compile` built-in function, or using the :func:`parse`
+helper provided in this module. The result will be a tree of objects whose
+classes all inherit from :class:`ast.AST`. An abstract syntax tree can be
+compiled into a Python code object using the built-in :func:`compile` function.
+
+
+Node classes
+------------
+
+.. class:: AST
+
+ This is the base of all AST node classes. The actual node classes are
+ derived from the :file:`Parser/Python.asdl` file, which is reproduced
+ :ref:`below <abstract-grammar>`. They are defined in the :mod:`_ast` C
+ module and re-exported in :mod:`ast`.
+
+ There is one class defined for each left-hand side symbol in the abstract
+ grammar (for example, :class:`ast.stmt` or :class:`ast.expr`). In addition,
+ there is one class defined for each constructor on the right-hand side; these
+ classes inherit from the classes for the left-hand side trees. For example,
+ :class:`ast.BinOp` inherits from :class:`ast.expr`. For production rules
+ with alternatives (aka "sums"), the left-hand side class is abstract: only
+ instances of specific constructor nodes are ever created.
+
+ .. attribute:: _fields
+
+ Each concrete class has an attribute :attr:`_fields` which gives the names
+ of all child nodes.
+
+ Each instance of a concrete class has one attribute for each child node,
+ of the type as defined in the grammar. For example, :class:`ast.BinOp`
+ instances have an attribute :attr:`left` of type :class:`ast.expr`.
+
+ If these attributes are marked as optional in the grammar (using a
+ question mark), the value might be ``None``. If the attributes can have
+ zero-or-more values (marked with an asterisk), the values are represented
+ as Python lists. All possible attributes must be present and have valid
+ values when compiling an AST with :func:`compile`.
+
+ .. attribute:: lineno
+ col_offset
+
+ Instances of :class:`ast.expr` and :class:`ast.stmt` subclasses have
+ :attr:`lineno` and :attr:`col_offset` attributes. The :attr:`lineno` is
+ the line number of source text (1-indexed so the first line is line 1) and
+ the :attr:`col_offset` is the UTF-8 byte offset of the first token that
+ generated the node. The UTF-8 offset is recorded because the parser uses
+ UTF-8 internally.
+
+ The constructor of a class :class:`ast.T` parses its arguments as follows:
+
+ * If there are positional arguments, there must be as many as there are items
+ in :attr:`T._fields`; they will be assigned as attributes of these names.
+ * If there are keyword arguments, they will set the attributes of the same
+ names to the given values.
+
+ For example, to create and populate an :class:`ast.UnaryOp` node, you could
+ use ::
+
+ node = ast.UnaryOp()
+ node.op = ast.USub()
+ node.operand = ast.Num()
+ node.operand.n = 5
+ node.operand.lineno = 0
+ node.operand.col_offset = 0
+ node.lineno = 0
+ node.col_offset = 0
+
+ or the more compact ::
+
+ node = ast.UnaryOp(ast.USub(), ast.Num(5, lineno=0, col_offset=0),
+ lineno=0, col_offset=0)
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+ The constructor as explained above was added. In Python 2.5 nodes had
+ to be created by calling the class constructor without arguments and
+ setting the attributes afterwards.
+
+
+.. _abstract-grammar:
+
+Abstract Grammar
+----------------
+
+The module defines a string constant ``__version__`` which is the decimal
+Subversion revision number of the file shown below.
+
+The abstract grammar is currently defined as follows:
+
+.. literalinclude:: ../../Parser/Python.asdl
+
+
+:mod:`ast` Helpers
+------------------
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+Apart from the node classes, :mod:`ast` module defines these utility functions
+and classes for traversing abstract syntax trees:
+
+.. function:: parse(source, filename='<unknown>', mode='exec')
+
+ Parse the source into an AST node. Equivalent to ``compile(source,
+ filename, mode, ast.PyCF_ONLY_AST)``.
+
+
+.. function:: literal_eval(node_or_string)
+
+ Safely evaluate an expression node or a string containing a Python
+ expression. The string or node provided may only consist of the following
+ Python literal structures: strings, numbers, tuples, lists, dicts, booleans,
+ and ``None``.
+
+ This can be used for safely evaluating strings containing Python expressions
+ from untrusted sources without the need to parse the values oneself.
+
+
+.. function:: get_docstring(node, clean=True)
+
+ Return the docstring of the given *node* (which must be a
+ :class:`FunctionDef`, :class:`ClassDef` or :class:`Module` node), or ``None``
+ if it has no docstring. If *clean* is true, clean up the docstring's
+ indentation with :func:`inspect.cleandoc`.
+
+
+.. function:: fix_missing_locations(node)
+
+ When you compile a node tree with :func:`compile`, the compiler expects
+ :attr:`lineno` and :attr:`col_offset` attributes for every node that supports
+ them. This is rather tedious to fill in for generated nodes, so this helper
+ adds these attributes recursively where not already set, by setting them to
+ the values of the parent node. It works recursively starting at *node*.
+
+
+.. function:: increment_lineno(node, n=1)
+
+ Increment the line number of each node in the tree starting at *node* by *n*.
+ This is useful to "move code" to a different location in a file.
+
+
+.. function:: copy_location(new_node, old_node)
+
+ Copy source location (:attr:`lineno` and :attr:`col_offset`) from *old_node*
+ to *new_node* if possible, and return *new_node*.
+
+
+.. function:: iter_fields(node)
+
+ Yield a tuple of ``(fieldname, value)`` for each field in ``node._fields``
+ that is present on *node*.
+
+
+.. function:: iter_child_nodes(node)
+
+ Yield all direct child nodes of *node*, that is, all fields that are nodes
+ and all items of fields that are lists of nodes.
+
+
+.. function:: walk(node)
+
+ Recursively yield all descendant nodes in the tree starting at *node*
+ (including *node* itself), in no specified order. This is useful if you only
+ want to modify nodes in place and don't care about the context.
+
+
+.. class:: NodeVisitor()
+
+ A node visitor base class that walks the abstract syntax tree and calls a
+ visitor function for every node found. This function may return a value
+ which is forwarded by the :meth:`visit` method.
+
+ This class is meant to be subclassed, with the subclass adding visitor
+ methods.
+
+ .. method:: visit(node)
+
+ Visit a node. The default implementation calls the method called
+ :samp:`self.visit_{classname}` where *classname* is the name of the node
+ class, or :meth:`generic_visit` if that method doesn't exist.
+
+ .. method:: generic_visit(node)
+
+ This visitor calls :meth:`visit` on all children of the node.
+
+ Note that child nodes of nodes that have a custom visitor method won't be
+ visited unless the visitor calls :meth:`generic_visit` or visits them
+ itself.
+
+ Don't use the :class:`NodeVisitor` if you want to apply changes to nodes
+ during traversal. For this a special visitor exists
+ (:class:`NodeTransformer`) that allows modifications.
+
+
+.. class:: NodeTransformer()
+
+ A :class:`NodeVisitor` subclass that walks the abstract syntax tree and
+ allows modification of nodes.
+
+ The :class:`NodeTransformer` will walk the AST and use the return value of
+ the visitor methods to replace or remove the old node. If the return value
+ of the visitor method is ``None``, the node will be removed from its
+ location, otherwise it is replaced with the return value. The return value
+ may be the original node in which case no replacement takes place.
+
+ Here is an example transformer that rewrites all occurrences of name lookups
+ (``foo``) to ``data['foo']``::
+
+ class RewriteName(NodeTransformer):
+
+ def visit_Name(self, node):
+ return copy_location(Subscript(
+ value=Name(id='data', ctx=Load()),
+ slice=Index(value=Str(s=node.id)),
+ ctx=node.ctx
+ ), node)
+
+ Keep in mind that if the node you're operating on has child nodes you must
+ either transform the child nodes yourself or call the :meth:`generic_visit`
+ method for the node first.
+
+ For nodes that were part of a collection of statements (that applies to all
+ statement nodes), the visitor may also return a list of nodes rather than
+ just a single node.
+
+ Usually you use the transformer like this::
+
+ node = YourTransformer().visit(node)
+
+
+.. function:: dump(node, annotate_fields=True, include_attributes=False)
+
+ Return a formatted dump of the tree in *node*. This is mainly useful for
+ debugging purposes. The returned string will show the names and the values
+ for fields. This makes the code impossible to evaluate, so if evaluation is
+ wanted *annotate_fields* must be set to False. Attributes such as line
+ numbers and column offsets are not dumped by default. If this is wanted,
+ *include_attributes* can be set to ``True``.

+:mod:`asynchat` --- Asynchronous socket command/response handler
+================================================================
+
+.. module:: asynchat
+ :synopsis: Support for asynchronous command/response protocols.
+.. moduleauthor:: Sam Rushing <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Steve Holden <[email protected]>
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/asynchat.py`
+
+--------------
+
+This module builds on the :mod:`asyncore` infrastructure, simplifying
+asynchronous clients and servers and making it easier to handle protocols
+whose elements are terminated by arbitrary strings, or are of variable length.
+:mod:`asynchat` defines the abstract class :class:`async_chat` that you
+subclass, providing implementations of the :meth:`collect_incoming_data` and
+:meth:`found_terminator` methods. It uses the same asynchronous loop as
+:mod:`asyncore`, and the two types of channel, :class:`asyncore.dispatcher`
+and :class:`asynchat.async_chat`, can freely be mixed in the channel map.
+Typically an :class:`asyncore.dispatcher` server channel generates new
+:class:`asynchat.async_chat` channel objects as it receives incoming
+connection requests.
+
+
+.. class:: async_chat()
+
+ This class is an abstract subclass of :class:`asyncore.dispatcher`. To make
+ practical use of the code you must subclass :class:`async_chat`, providing
+ meaningful :meth:`collect_incoming_data` and :meth:`found_terminator`
+ methods.
+ The :class:`asyncore.dispatcher` methods can be used, although not all make
+ sense in a message/response context.
+
+ Like :class:`asyncore.dispatcher`, :class:`async_chat` defines a set of
+ events that are generated by an analysis of socket conditions after a
+ :c:func:`select` call. Once the polling loop has been started the
+ :class:`async_chat` object's methods are called by the event-processing
+ framework with no action on the part of the programmer.
+
+ Two class attributes can be modified, to improve performance, or possibly
+ even to conserve memory.
+
+
+ .. data:: ac_in_buffer_size
+
+ The asynchronous input buffer size (default ``4096``).
+
+
+ .. data:: ac_out_buffer_size
+
+ The asynchronous output buffer size (default ``4096``).
+
+ Unlike :class:`asyncore.dispatcher`, :class:`async_chat` allows you to
+ define a first-in-first-out queue (fifo) of *producers*. A producer need
+ have only one method, :meth:`more`, which should return data to be
+ transmitted on the channel.
+ The producer indicates exhaustion (*i.e.* that it contains no more data) by
+ having its :meth:`more` method return the empty string. At this point the
+ :class:`async_chat` object removes the producer from the fifo and starts
+ using the next producer, if any. When the producer fifo is empty the
+ :meth:`handle_write` method does nothing. You use the channel object's
+ :meth:`set_terminator` method to describe how to recognize the end of, or
+ an important breakpoint in, an incoming transmission from the remote
+ endpoint.
+
+ To build a functioning :class:`async_chat` subclass your input methods
+ :meth:`collect_incoming_data` and :meth:`found_terminator` must handle the
+ data that the channel receives asynchronously. The methods are described
+ below.
+
+
+.. method:: async_chat.close_when_done()
+
+ Pushes a ``None`` on to the producer fifo. When this producer is popped off
+ the fifo it causes the channel to be closed.
+
+
+.. method:: async_chat.collect_incoming_data(data)
+
+ Called with *data* holding an arbitrary amount of received data. The
+ default method, which must be overridden, raises a
+ :exc:`NotImplementedError` exception.
+
+
+.. method:: async_chat.discard_buffers()
+
+ In emergencies this method will discard any data held in the input and/or
+ output buffers and the producer fifo.
+
+
+.. method:: async_chat.found_terminator()
+
+ Called when the incoming data stream matches the termination condition set
+ by :meth:`set_terminator`. The default method, which must be overridden,
+ raises a :exc:`NotImplementedError` exception. The buffered input data
+ should be available via an instance attribute.
+
+
+.. method:: async_chat.get_terminator()
+
+ Returns the current terminator for the channel.
+
+
+.. method:: async_chat.push(data)
+
+ Pushes data on to the channel's fifo to ensure its transmission.
+ This is all you need to do to have the channel write the data out to the
+ network, although it is possible to use your own producers in more complex
+ schemes to implement encryption and chunking, for example.
+
+
+.. method:: async_chat.push_with_producer(producer)
+
+ Takes a producer object and adds it to the producer fifo associated with
+ the channel. When all currently-pushed producers have been exhausted the
+ channel will consume this producer's data by calling its :meth:`more`
+ method and send the data to the remote endpoint.
+
+
+.. method:: async_chat.set_terminator(term)
+
+ Sets the terminating condition to be recognized on the channel. ``term``
+ may be any of three types of value, corresponding to three different ways
+ to handle incoming protocol data.
+
+ +-----------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | term | Description |
+ +===========+=============================================+
+ | *string* | Will call :meth:`found_terminator` when the |
+ | | string is found in the input stream |
+ +-----------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | *integer* | Will call :meth:`found_terminator` when the |
+ | | indicated number of characters have been |
+ | | received |
+ +-----------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | ``None`` | The channel continues to collect data |
+ | | forever |
+ +-----------+---------------------------------------------+
+
+ Note that any data following the terminator will be available for reading
+ by the channel after :meth:`found_terminator` is called.
+
+
+asynchat - Auxiliary Classes
+------------------------------------------
+
+.. class:: fifo([list=None])
+
+ A :class:`fifo` holding data which has been pushed by the application but
+ not yet popped for writing to the channel. A :class:`fifo` is a list used
+ to hold data and/or producers until they are required. If the *list*
+ argument is provided then it should contain producers or data items to be
+ written to the channel.
+
+
+ .. method:: is_empty()
+
+ Returns ``True`` if and only if the fifo is empty.
+
+
+ .. method:: first()
+
+ Returns the least-recently :meth:`push`\ ed item from the fifo.
+
+
+ .. method:: push(data)
+
+ Adds the given data (which may be a string or a producer object) to the
+ producer fifo.
+
+
+ .. method:: pop()
+
+ If the fifo is not empty, returns ``True, first()``, deleting the popped
+ item. Returns ``False, None`` for an empty fifo.
+
+
+.. _asynchat-example:
+
+asynchat Example
+----------------
+
+The following partial example shows how HTTP requests can be read with
+:class:`async_chat`. A web server might create an
+:class:`http_request_handler` object for each incoming client connection.
+Notice that initially the channel terminator is set to match the blank line at
+the end of the HTTP headers, and a flag indicates that the headers are being
+read.
+
+Once the headers have been read, if the request is of type POST (indicating
+that further data are present in the input stream) then the
+``Content-Length:`` header is used to set a numeric terminator to read the
+right amount of data from the channel.
+
+The :meth:`handle_request` method is called once all relevant input has been
+marshalled, after setting the channel terminator to ``None`` to ensure that
+any extraneous data sent by the web client are ignored. ::
+
+ class http_request_handler(asynchat.async_chat):
+
+ def __init__(self, sock, addr, sessions, log):
+ asynchat.async_chat.__init__(self, sock=sock)
+ self.addr = addr
+ self.sessions = sessions

+:mod:`asyncore` --- Asynchronous socket handler
+===============================================
+
+.. module:: asyncore
+ :synopsis: A base class for developing asynchronous socket handling
+ services.
+.. moduleauthor:: Sam Rushing <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Christopher Petrilli <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Steve Holden <[email protected]>
+.. heavily adapted from original documentation by Sam Rushing
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/asyncore.py`
+
+--------------
+
+This module provides the basic infrastructure for writing asynchronous socket
+service clients and servers.
+
+There are only two ways to have a program on a single processor do "more than
+one thing at a time." Multi-threaded programming is the simplest and most
+popular way to do it, but there is another very different technique, that lets
+you have nearly all the advantages of multi-threading, without actually using
+multiple threads. It's really only practical if your program is largely I/O
+bound. If your program is processor bound, then pre-emptive scheduled threads
+are probably what you really need. Network servers are rarely processor
+bound, however.
+
+If your operating system supports the :c:func:`select` system call in its I/O
+library (and nearly all do), then you can use it to juggle multiple
+communication channels at once; doing other work while your I/O is taking
+place in the "background." Although this strategy can seem strange and
+complex, especially at first, it is in many ways easier to understand and
+control than multi-threaded programming. The :mod:`asyncore` module solves
+many of the difficult problems for you, making the task of building
+sophisticated high-performance network servers and clients a snap. For
+"conversational" applications and protocols the companion :mod:`asynchat`
+module is invaluable.
+
+The basic idea behind both modules is to create one or more network
+*channels*, instances of class :class:`asyncore.dispatcher` and
+:class:`asynchat.async_chat`. Creating the channels adds them to a global
+map, used by the :func:`loop` function if you do not provide it with your own
+*map*.
+
+Once the initial channel(s) is(are) created, calling the :func:`loop` function
+activates channel service, which continues until the last channel (including
+any that have been added to the map during asynchronous service) is closed.
+
+
+.. function:: loop([timeout[, use_poll[, map[,count]]]])
+
+ Enter a polling loop that terminates after count passes or all open
+ channels have been closed. All arguments are optional. The *count*
+ parameter defaults to None, resulting in the loop terminating only when all
+ channels have been closed. The *timeout* argument sets the timeout
+ parameter for the appropriate :func:`select` or :func:`poll` call, measured
+ in seconds; the default is 30 seconds. The *use_poll* parameter, if true,
+ indicates that :func:`poll` should be used in preference to :func:`select`
+ (the default is ``False``).
+
+ The *map* parameter is a dictionary whose items are the channels to watch.
+ As channels are closed they are deleted from their map. If *map* is
+ omitted, a global map is used. Channels (instances of
+ :class:`asyncore.dispatcher`, :class:`asynchat.async_chat` and subclasses
+ thereof) can freely be mixed in the map.
+
+
+.. class:: dispatcher()
+
+ The :class:`dispatcher` class is a thin wrapper around a low-level socket
+ object. To make it more useful, it has a few methods for event-handling
+ which are called from the asynchronous loop. Otherwise, it can be treated
+ as a normal non-blocking socket object.
+
+ The firing of low-level events at certain times or in certain connection
+ states tells the asynchronous loop that certain higher-level events have
+ taken place. For example, if we have asked for a socket to connect to
+ another host, we know that the connection has been made when the socket
+ becomes writable for the first time (at this point you know that you may
+ write to it with the expectation of success). The implied higher-level
+ events are:
+
+ +----------------------+----------------------------------------+
+ | Event | Description |
+ +======================+========================================+
+ | ``handle_connect()`` | Implied by the first read or write |
+ | | event |
+ +----------------------+----------------------------------------+
+ | ``handle_close()`` | Implied by a read event with no data |
+ | | available |
+ +----------------------+----------------------------------------+
+ | ``handle_accept()`` | Implied by a read event on a listening |
+ | | socket |
+ +----------------------+----------------------------------------+
+
+ During asynchronous processing, each mapped channel's :meth:`readable` and
+ :meth:`writable` methods are used to determine whether the channel's socket
+ should be added to the list of channels :c:func:`select`\ ed or
+ :c:func:`poll`\ ed for read and write events.
+
+ Thus, the set of channel events is larger than the basic socket events. The
+ full set of methods that can be overridden in your subclass follows:
+
+
+ .. method:: handle_read()
+
+ Called when the asynchronous loop detects that a :meth:`read` call on the
+ channel's socket will succeed.
+
+
+ .. method:: handle_write()
+
+ Called when the asynchronous loop detects that a writable socket can be
+ written. Often this method will implement the necessary buffering for
+ performance. For example::
+
+ def handle_write(self):
+ sent = self.send(self.buffer)
+ self.buffer = self.buffer[sent:]
+
+
+ .. method:: handle_expt()
+
+ Called when there is out of band (OOB) data for a socket connection. This
+ will almost never happen, as OOB is tenuously supported and rarely used.
+
+
+ .. method:: handle_connect()
+
+ Called when the active opener's socket actually makes a connection. Might
+ send a "welcome" banner, or initiate a protocol negotiation with the
+ remote endpoint, for example.
+
+
+ .. method:: handle_close()
+
+ Called when the socket is closed.
+
+
+ .. method:: handle_error()
+
+ Called when an exception is raised and not otherwise handled. The default
+ version prints a condensed traceback.
+
+
+ .. method:: handle_accept()
+
+ Called on listening channels (passive openers) when a connection can be
+ established with a new remote endpoint that has issued a :meth:`connect`
+ call for the local endpoint.
+
+
+ .. method:: readable()
+
+ Called each time around the asynchronous loop to determine whether a
+ channel's socket should be added to the list on which read events can
+ occur. The default method simply returns ``True``, indicating that by
+ default, all channels will be interested in read events.
+
+
+ .. method:: writable()
+
+ Called each time around the asynchronous loop to determine whether a
+ channel's socket should be added to the list on which write events can
+ occur. The default method simply returns ``True``, indicating that by
+ default, all channels will be interested in write events.
+
+
+ In addition, each channel delegates or extends many of the socket methods.
+ Most of these are nearly identical to their socket partners.
+
+
+ .. method:: create_socket(family, type)
+
+ This is identical to the creation of a normal socket, and will use the
+ same options for creation. Refer to the :mod:`socket` documentation for
+ information on creating sockets.
+
+
+ .. method:: connect(address)
+
+ As with the normal socket object, *address* is a tuple with the first
+ element the host to connect to, and the second the port number.
+
+
+ .. method:: send(data)
+
+ Send *data* to the remote end-point of the socket.
+
+
+ .. method:: recv(buffer_size)
+
+ Read at most *buffer_size* bytes from the socket's remote end-point. An
+ empty string implies that the channel has been closed from the other end.
+
+
+ .. method:: listen(backlog)
+
+ Listen for connections made to the socket. The *backlog* argument
+ specifies the maximum number of queued connections and should be at least
+ 1; the maximum value is system-dependent (usually 5).
+
+
+ .. method:: bind(address)
+
+ Bind the socket to *address*. The socket must not already be bound. (The
+ format of *address* depends on the address family --- refer to the
+ :mod:`socket` documentation for more information.) To mark
+ the socket as re-usable (setting the :const:`SO_REUSEADDR` option), call
+ the :class:`dispatcher` object's :meth:`set_reuse_addr` method.
+
+
+ .. method:: accept()
+
+ Accept a connection. The socket must be bound to an address and listening
+ for connections. The return value can be either ``None`` or a pair
+ ``(conn, address)`` where *conn* is a *new* socket object usable to send
+ and receive data on the connection, and *address* is the address bound to
+ the socket on the other end of the connection.
+ When ``None`` is returned it means the connection didn't take place, in
+ which case the server should just ignore this event and keep listening
+ for further incoming connections.
+
+
+ .. method:: close()
+
+ Close the socket. All future operations on the socket object will fail.
+ The remote end-point will receive no more data (after queued data is
+ flushed). Sockets are automatically closed when they are
+ garbage-collected.
+
+.. class:: dispatcher_with_send()
+
+ A :class:`dispatcher` subclass which adds simple buffered output capability,
+ useful for simple clients. For more sophisticated usage use
+ :class:`asynchat.async_chat`.
+
+.. class:: file_dispatcher()
+
+ A file_dispatcher takes a file descriptor or file object along with an
+ optional map argument and wraps it for use with the :c:func:`poll` or
+ :c:func:`loop` functions. If provided a file object or anything with a
+ :c:func:`fileno` method, that method will be called and passed to the
+ :class:`file_wrapper` constructor. Availability: UNIX.
+
+.. class:: file_wrapper()
+
+ A file_wrapper takes an integer file descriptor and calls :func:`os.dup` to
+ duplicate the handle so that the original handle may be closed independently
+ of the file_wrapper. This class implements sufficient methods to emulate a
+ socket for use by the :class:`file_dispatcher` class. Availability: UNIX.
+
+
+.. _asyncore-example-1:
+
+asyncore Example basic HTTP client
+----------------------------------
+
+Here is a very basic HTTP client that uses the :class:`dispatcher` class to
+implement its socket handling::
+
+ import asyncore, socket
+
+ class HTTPClient(asyncore.dispatcher):
+
+ def __init__(self, host, path):
+ asyncore.dispatcher.__init__(self)
+ self.create_socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
+ self.connect( (host, 80) )
+ self.buffer = 'GET %s HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n' % path
+
+ def handle_connect(self):
+ pass
+
+ def handle_close(self):
+ self.close()
+
+ def handle_read(self):
+ print self.recv(8192)
+
+ def writable(self):
+ return (len(self.buffer) > 0)
+
+ def handle_write(self):
+ sent = self.send(self.buffer)
+ self.buffer = self.buffer[sent:]
+
+
+ client = HTTPClient('www.python.org', '/')
+ asyncore.loop()
+
+.. _asyncore-example-2:
+
+asyncore Example basic echo server
+----------------------------------
+
+Here is a basic echo server that uses the :class:`dispatcher` class to accept
+connections and dispatches the incoming connections to a handler::
+
+ import asyncore
+ import socket
+
+ class EchoHandler(asyncore.dispatcher_with_send):
+
+ def handle_read(self):
+ data = self.recv(8192)
+ if data:
+ self.send(data)
+
+ class EchoServer(asyncore.dispatcher):
+
+ def __init__(self, host, port):
+ asyncore.dispatcher.__init__(self)
+ self.create_socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
+ self.set_reuse_addr()
+ self.bind((host, port))
+ self.listen(5)
+
+ def handle_accept(self):
+ pair = self.accept()
+ if pair is not None:
+ sock, addr = pair
+ print 'Incoming connection from %s' % repr(addr)
+ handler = EchoHandler(sock)
+
+ server = EchoServer('localhost', 8080)
+ asyncore.loop()

+:mod:`atexit` --- Exit handlers
+===============================
+
+.. module:: atexit
+ :synopsis: Register and execute cleanup functions.
+.. moduleauthor:: Skip Montanaro <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Skip Montanaro <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/atexit.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`atexit` module defines a single function to register cleanup
+functions. Functions thus registered are automatically executed upon normal
+interpreter termination. The order in which the functions are called is not
+defined; if you have cleanup operations that depend on each other, you should
+wrap them in a function and register that one. This keeps :mod:`atexit` simple.
+
+Note: the functions registered via this module are not called when the program
+is killed by a signal not handled by Python, when a Python fatal internal error
+is detected, or when :func:`os._exit` is called.
+
+.. index:: single: exitfunc (in sys)
+
+This is an alternate interface to the functionality provided by the
+:func:`sys.exitfunc` variable.
+
+Note: This module is unlikely to work correctly when used with other code that
+sets ``sys.exitfunc``. In particular, other core Python modules are free to use
+:mod:`atexit` without the programmer's knowledge. Authors who use
+``sys.exitfunc`` should convert their code to use :mod:`atexit` instead. The
+simplest way to convert code that sets ``sys.exitfunc`` is to import
+:mod:`atexit` and register the function that had been bound to ``sys.exitfunc``.
+
+
+.. function:: register(func[, *args[, **kargs]])
+
+ Register *func* as a function to be executed at termination. Any optional
+ arguments that are to be passed to *func* must be passed as arguments to
+ :func:`register`. It is possible to register the same function and arguments
+ more than once.
+
+ At normal program termination (for instance, if :func:`sys.exit` is called or
+ the main module's execution completes), all functions registered are called in
+ last in, first out order. The assumption is that lower level modules will
+ normally be imported before higher level modules and thus must be cleaned up
+ later.
+
+ If an exception is raised during execution of the exit handlers, a traceback is
+ printed (unless :exc:`SystemExit` is raised) and the exception information is
+ saved. After all exit handlers have had a chance to run the last exception to
+ be raised is re-raised.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ This function now returns *func*, which makes it possible to use it as a
+ decorator.
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ Module :mod:`readline`
+ Useful example of :mod:`atexit` to read and write :mod:`readline` history files.
+
+
+.. _atexit-example:
+
+:mod:`atexit` Example
+---------------------
+
+The following simple example demonstrates how a module can initialize a counter
+from a file when it is imported and save the counter's updated value
+automatically when the program terminates without relying on the application
+making an explicit call into this module at termination. ::
+
+ try:
+ _count = int(open("counter").read())
+ except IOError:
+ _count = 0
+
+ def incrcounter(n):
+ global _count
+ _count = _count + n
+
+ def savecounter():
+ open("counter", "w").write("%d" % _count)
+
+ import atexit
+ atexit.register(savecounter)
+
+Positional and keyword arguments may also be passed to :func:`register` to be
+passed along to the registered function when it is called::
+
+ def goodbye(name, adjective):
+ print 'Goodbye, %s, it was %s to meet you.' % (name, adjective)
+
+ import atexit
+ atexit.register(goodbye, 'Donny', 'nice')
+
+ # or:
+ atexit.register(goodbye, adjective='nice', name='Donny')
+
+Usage as a :term:`decorator`::
+
+ import atexit
+
+ @atexit.register
+ def goodbye():
+ print "You are now leaving the Python sector."
+
+This only works with functions that can be called without arguments.

+
+:mod:`audioop` --- Manipulate raw audio data
+============================================
+
+.. module:: audioop
+ :synopsis: Manipulate raw audio data.
+
+
+The :mod:`audioop` module contains some useful operations on sound fragments.
+It operates on sound fragments consisting of signed integer samples 8, 16 or 32
+bits wide, stored in Python strings. This is the same format as used by the
+:mod:`al` and :mod:`sunaudiodev` modules. All scalar items are integers, unless
+specified otherwise.
+
+.. index::
+ single: Intel/DVI ADPCM
+ single: ADPCM, Intel/DVI
+ single: a-LAW
+ single: u-LAW
+
+This module provides support for a-LAW, u-LAW and Intel/DVI ADPCM encodings.
+
+.. This para is mostly here to provide an excuse for the index entries...
+
+A few of the more complicated operations only take 16-bit samples, otherwise the
+sample size (in bytes) is always a parameter of the operation.
+
+The module defines the following variables and functions:
+
+
+.. exception:: error
+
+ This exception is raised on all errors, such as unknown number of bytes per
+ sample, etc.
+
+
+.. function:: add(fragment1, fragment2, width)
+
+ Return a fragment which is the addition of the two samples passed as parameters.
+ *width* is the sample width in bytes, either ``1``, ``2`` or ``4``. Both
+ fragments should have the same length. Samples are truncated in case of overflow.
+
+
+.. function:: adpcm2lin(adpcmfragment, width, state)
+
+ Decode an Intel/DVI ADPCM coded fragment to a linear fragment. See the
+ description of :func:`lin2adpcm` for details on ADPCM coding. Return a tuple
+ ``(sample, newstate)`` where the sample has the width specified in *width*.
+
+
+.. function:: alaw2lin(fragment, width)
+
+ Convert sound fragments in a-LAW encoding to linearly encoded sound fragments.
+ a-LAW encoding always uses 8 bits samples, so *width* refers only to the sample
+ width of the output fragment here.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. function:: avg(fragment, width)
+
+ Return the average over all samples in the fragment.
+
+
+.. function:: avgpp(fragment, width)
+
+ Return the average peak-peak value over all samples in the fragment. No
+ filtering is done, so the usefulness of this routine is questionable.
+
+
+.. function:: bias(fragment, width, bias)
+
+ Return a fragment that is the original fragment with a bias added to each
+ sample. Samples wrap around in case of overflow.
+
+
+.. function:: cross(fragment, width)
+
+ Return the number of zero crossings in the fragment passed as an argument.
+
+
+.. function:: findfactor(fragment, reference)
+
+ Return a factor *F* such that ``rms(add(fragment, mul(reference, -F)))`` is
+ minimal, i.e., return the factor with which you should multiply *reference* to
+ make it match as well as possible to *fragment*. The fragments should both
+ contain 2-byte samples.
+
+ The time taken by this routine is proportional to ``len(fragment)``.
+
+
+.. function:: findfit(fragment, reference)
+
+ Try to match *reference* as well as possible to a portion of *fragment* (which
+ should be the longer fragment). This is (conceptually) done by taking slices
+ out of *fragment*, using :func:`findfactor` to compute the best match, and
+ minimizing the result. The fragments should both contain 2-byte samples.
+ Return a tuple ``(offset, factor)`` where *offset* is the (integer) offset into
+ *fragment* where the optimal match started and *factor* is the (floating-point)
+ factor as per :func:`findfactor`.
+
+
+.. function:: findmax(fragment, length)
+
+ Search *fragment* for a slice of length *length* samples (not bytes!) with
+ maximum energy, i.e., return *i* for which ``rms(fragment[i*2:(i+length)*2])``
+ is maximal. The fragments should both contain 2-byte samples.
+
+ The routine takes time proportional to ``len(fragment)``.
+
+
+.. function:: getsample(fragment, width, index)
+
+ Return the value of sample *index* from the fragment.
+
+
+.. function:: lin2adpcm(fragment, width, state)
+
+ Convert samples to 4 bit Intel/DVI ADPCM encoding. ADPCM coding is an adaptive
+ coding scheme, whereby each 4 bit number is the difference between one sample
+ and the next, divided by a (varying) step. The Intel/DVI ADPCM algorithm has
+ been selected for use by the IMA, so it may well become a standard.
+
+ *state* is a tuple containing the state of the coder. The coder returns a tuple
+ ``(adpcmfrag, newstate)``, and the *newstate* should be passed to the next call
+ of :func:`lin2adpcm`. In the initial call, ``None`` can be passed as the state.
+ *adpcmfrag* is the ADPCM coded fragment packed 2 4-bit values per byte.
+
+
+.. function:: lin2alaw(fragment, width)
+
+ Convert samples in the audio fragment to a-LAW encoding and return this as a
+ Python string. a-LAW is an audio encoding format whereby you get a dynamic
+ range of about 13 bits using only 8 bit samples. It is used by the Sun audio
+ hardware, among others.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. function:: lin2lin(fragment, width, newwidth)
+
+ Convert samples between 1-, 2- and 4-byte formats.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ In some audio formats, such as .WAV files, 16 and 32 bit samples are
+ signed, but 8 bit samples are unsigned. So when converting to 8 bit wide
+ samples for these formats, you need to also add 128 to the result::
+
+ new_frames = audioop.lin2lin(frames, old_width, 1)
+ new_frames = audioop.bias(new_frames, 1, 128)
+
+ The same, in reverse, has to be applied when converting from 8 to 16 or 32
+ bit width samples.
+
+
+.. function:: lin2ulaw(fragment, width)
+
+ Convert samples in the audio fragment to u-LAW encoding and return this as a
+ Python string. u-LAW is an audio encoding format whereby you get a dynamic
+ range of about 14 bits using only 8 bit samples. It is used by the Sun audio
+ hardware, among others.
+
+
+.. function:: max(fragment, width)
+
+ Return the maximum of the *absolute value* of all samples in a fragment.
+
+
+.. function:: maxpp(fragment, width)
+
+ Return the maximum peak-peak value in the sound fragment.
+
+
+.. function:: minmax(fragment, width)
+
+ Return a tuple consisting of the minimum and maximum values of all samples in
+ the sound fragment.
+
+
+.. function:: mul(fragment, width, factor)
+
+ Return a fragment that has all samples in the original fragment multiplied by
+ the floating-point value *factor*. Samples are truncated in case of overflow.
+
+
+.. function:: ratecv(fragment, width, nchannels, inrate, outrate, state[, weightA[, weightB]])
+
+ Convert the frame rate of the input fragment.
+
+ *state* is a tuple containing the state of the converter. The converter returns
+ a tuple ``(newfragment, newstate)``, and *newstate* should be passed to the next
+ call of :func:`ratecv`. The initial call should pass ``None`` as the state.
+
+ The *weightA* and *weightB* arguments are parameters for a simple digital filter
+ and default to ``1`` and ``0`` respectively.
+
+
+.. function:: reverse(fragment, width)
+
+ Reverse the samples in a fragment and returns the modified fragment.
+
+
+.. function:: rms(fragment, width)
+
+ Return the root-mean-square of the fragment, i.e. ``sqrt(sum(S_i^2)/n)``.
+
+ This is a measure of the power in an audio signal.
+
+
+.. function:: tomono(fragment, width, lfactor, rfactor)
+
+ Convert a stereo fragment to a mono fragment. The left channel is multiplied by
+ *lfactor* and the right channel by *rfactor* before adding the two channels to
+ give a mono signal.
+
+
+.. function:: tostereo(fragment, width, lfactor, rfactor)
+
+ Generate a stereo fragment from a mono fragment. Each pair of samples in the
+ stereo fragment are computed from the mono sample, whereby left channel samples
+ are multiplied by *lfactor* and right channel samples by *rfactor*.
+
+
+.. function:: ulaw2lin(fragment, width)
+
+ Convert sound fragments in u-LAW encoding to linearly encoded sound fragments.
+ u-LAW encoding always uses 8 bits samples, so *width* refers only to the sample
+ width of the output fragment here.
+
+Note that operations such as :func:`.mul` or :func:`.max` make no distinction
+between mono and stereo fragments, i.e. all samples are treated equal. If this
+is a problem the stereo fragment should be split into two mono fragments first
+and recombined later. Here is an example of how to do that::
+
+ def mul_stereo(sample, width, lfactor, rfactor):
+ lsample = audioop.tomono(sample, width, 1, 0)
+ rsample = audioop.tomono(sample, width, 0, 1)
+ lsample = audioop.mul(lsample, width, lfactor)
+ rsample = audioop.mul(rsample, width, rfactor)
+ lsample = audioop.tostereo(lsample, width, 1, 0)
+ rsample = audioop.tostereo(rsample, width, 0, 1)
+ return audioop.add(lsample, rsample, width)
+
+If you use the ADPCM coder to build network packets and you want your protocol
+to be stateless (i.e. to be able to tolerate packet loss) you should not only
+transmit the data but also the state. Note that you should send the *initial*
+state (the one you passed to :func:`lin2adpcm`) along to the decoder, not the
+final state (as returned by the coder). If you want to use
+:func:`struct.struct` to store the state in binary you can code the first
+element (the predicted value) in 16 bits and the second (the delta index) in 8.
+
+The ADPCM coders have never been tried against other ADPCM coders, only against
+themselves. It could well be that I misinterpreted the standards in which case
+they will not be interoperable with the respective standards.
+
+The :func:`find\*` routines might look a bit funny at first sight. They are
+primarily meant to do echo cancellation. A reasonably fast way to do this is to
+pick the most energetic piece of the output sample, locate that in the input
+sample and subtract the whole output sample from the input sample::
+
+ def echocancel(outputdata, inputdata):
+ pos = audioop.findmax(outputdata, 800) # one tenth second
+ out_test = outputdata[pos*2:]
+ in_test = inputdata[pos*2:]
+ ipos, factor = audioop.findfit(in_test, out_test)
+ # Optional (for better cancellation):
+ # factor = audioop.findfactor(in_test[ipos*2:ipos*2+len(out_test)],
+ # out_test)
+ prefill = '\0'*(pos+ipos)*2
+ postfill = '\0'*(len(inputdata)-len(prefill)-len(outputdata))
+ outputdata = prefill + audioop.mul(outputdata,2,-factor) + postfill
+ return audioop.add(inputdata, outputdata, 2)

+:mod:`base64` --- RFC 3548: Base16, Base32, Base64 Data Encodings
+=================================================================
+
+.. module:: base64
+ :synopsis: RFC 3548: Base16, Base32, Base64 Data Encodings
+
+
+.. index::
+ pair: base64; encoding
+ single: MIME; base64 encoding
+
+This module provides data encoding and decoding as specified in :rfc:`3548`.
+This standard defines the Base16, Base32, and Base64 algorithms for encoding and
+decoding arbitrary binary strings into text strings that can be safely sent by
+email, used as parts of URLs, or included as part of an HTTP POST request. The
+encoding algorithm is not the same as the :program:`uuencode` program.
+
+There are two interfaces provided by this module. The modern interface supports
+encoding and decoding string objects using all three alphabets. The legacy
+interface provides for encoding and decoding to and from file-like objects as
+well as strings, but only using the Base64 standard alphabet.
+
+The modern interface, which was introduced in Python 2.4, provides:
+
+
+.. function:: b64encode(s[, altchars])
+
+ Encode a string use Base64.
+
+ *s* is the string to encode. Optional *altchars* must be a string of at least
+ length 2 (additional characters are ignored) which specifies an alternative
+ alphabet for the ``+`` and ``/`` characters. This allows an application to e.g.
+ generate URL or filesystem safe Base64 strings. The default is ``None``, for
+ which the standard Base64 alphabet is used.
+
+ The encoded string is returned.
+
+
+.. function:: b64decode(s[, altchars])
+
+ Decode a Base64 encoded string.
+
+ *s* is the string to decode. Optional *altchars* must be a string of at least
+ length 2 (additional characters are ignored) which specifies the alternative
+ alphabet used instead of the ``+`` and ``/`` characters.
+
+ The decoded string is returned. A :exc:`TypeError` is raised if *s* were
+ incorrectly padded or if there are non-alphabet characters present in the
+ string.
+
+
+.. function:: standard_b64encode(s)
+
+ Encode string *s* using the standard Base64 alphabet.
+
+
+.. function:: standard_b64decode(s)
+
+ Decode string *s* using the standard Base64 alphabet.
+
+
+.. function:: urlsafe_b64encode(s)
+
+ Encode string *s* using a URL-safe alphabet, which substitutes ``-`` instead of
+ ``+`` and ``_`` instead of ``/`` in the standard Base64 alphabet. The result
+ can still contain ``=``.
+
+
+.. function:: urlsafe_b64decode(s)
+
+ Decode string *s* using a URL-safe alphabet, which substitutes ``-`` instead of
+ ``+`` and ``_`` instead of ``/`` in the standard Base64 alphabet.
+
+
+.. function:: b32encode(s)
+
+ Encode a string using Base32. *s* is the string to encode. The encoded string
+ is returned.
+
+
+.. function:: b32decode(s[, casefold[, map01]])
+
+ Decode a Base32 encoded string.
+
+ *s* is the string to decode. Optional *casefold* is a flag specifying whether a
+ lowercase alphabet is acceptable as input. For security purposes, the default
+ is ``False``.
+
+ :rfc:`3548` allows for optional mapping of the digit 0 (zero) to the letter O
+ (oh), and for optional mapping of the digit 1 (one) to either the letter I (eye)
+ or letter L (el). The optional argument *map01* when not ``None``, specifies
+ which letter the digit 1 should be mapped to (when *map01* is not ``None``, the
+ digit 0 is always mapped to the letter O). For security purposes the default is
+ ``None``, so that 0 and 1 are not allowed in the input.
+
+ The decoded string is returned. A :exc:`TypeError` is raised if *s* were
+ incorrectly padded or if there are non-alphabet characters present in the
+ string.
+
+
+.. function:: b16encode(s)
+
+ Encode a string using Base16.
+
+ *s* is the string to encode. The encoded string is returned.
+
+
+.. function:: b16decode(s[, casefold])
+
+ Decode a Base16 encoded string.
+
+ *s* is the string to decode. Optional *casefold* is a flag specifying whether a

+ string.
+
+The legacy interface:
+
+
+.. function:: decode(input, output)
+
+ Decode the contents of the *input* file and write the resulting binary data to
+ the *output* file. *input* and *output* must either be file objects or objects
+ that mimic the file object interface. *input* will be read until
+ ``input.read()`` returns an empty string.
+
+
+.. function:: decodestring(s)
+
+ Decode the string *s*, which must contain one or more lines of base64 encoded
+ data, and return a string containing the resulting binary data.
+
+
+.. function:: encode(input, output)
+
+ Encode the contents of the *input* file and write the resulting base64 encoded
+ data to the *output* file. *input* and *output* must either be file objects or
+ objects that mimic the file object interface. *input* will be read until
+ ``input.read()`` returns an empty string. :func:`encode` returns the encoded
+ data plus a trailing newline character (``'\n'``).
+
+
+.. function:: encodestring(s)
+
+ Encode the string *s*, which can contain arbitrary binary data, and return a
+ string containing one or more lines of base64-encoded data.
+ :func:`encodestring` returns a string containing one or more lines of
+ base64-encoded data always including an extra trailing newline (``'\n'``).
+
+An example usage of the module:
+
+ >>> import base64

+ >>> encoded
+ 'ZGF0YSB0byBiZSBlbmNvZGVk'

+:mod:`BaseHTTPServer` --- Basic HTTP server
+===========================================
+
+.. module:: BaseHTTPServer
+ :synopsis: Basic HTTP server (base class for SimpleHTTPServer and CGIHTTPServer).
+
+.. note::
+ The :mod:`BaseHTTPServer` module has been merged into :mod:`http.server` in
+ Python 3. The :term:`2to3` tool will automatically adapt imports when
+ converting your sources to Python 3.
+
+
+.. index::
+ pair: WWW; server
+ pair: HTTP; protocol
+ single: URL
+ single: httpd
+ module: SimpleHTTPServer
+ module: CGIHTTPServer
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/BaseHTTPServer.py`
+
+--------------
+
+This module defines two classes for implementing HTTP servers (Web servers).
+Usually, this module isn't used directly, but is used as a basis for building
+functioning Web servers. See the :mod:`SimpleHTTPServer` and
+:mod:`CGIHTTPServer` modules.
+
+The first class, :class:`HTTPServer`, is a :class:`SocketServer.TCPServer`
+subclass, and therefore implements the :class:`SocketServer.BaseServer`
+interface. It creates and listens at the HTTP socket, dispatching the requests
+to a handler. Code to create and run the server looks like this::
+
+ def run(server_class=BaseHTTPServer.HTTPServer,
+ handler_class=BaseHTTPServer.BaseHTTPRequestHandler):
+ server_address = ('', 8000)
+ httpd = server_class(server_address, handler_class)
+ httpd.serve_forever()
+
+
+.. class:: HTTPServer(server_address, RequestHandlerClass)
+
+ This class builds on the :class:`TCPServer` class by storing the server
+ address as instance variables named :attr:`server_name` and
+ :attr:`server_port`. The server is accessible by the handler, typically
+ through the handler's :attr:`server` instance variable.
+
+
+.. class:: BaseHTTPRequestHandler(request, client_address, server)
+
+ This class is used to handle the HTTP requests that arrive at the server. By
+ itself, it cannot respond to any actual HTTP requests; it must be subclassed
+ to handle each request method (e.g. GET or
+ POST). :class:`BaseHTTPRequestHandler` provides a number of class and
+ instance variables, and methods for use by subclasses.
+
+ The handler will parse the request and the headers, then call a method
+ specific to the request type. The method name is constructed from the
+ request. For example, for the request method ``SPAM``, the :meth:`do_SPAM`
+ method will be called with no arguments. All of the relevant information is
+ stored in instance variables of the handler. Subclasses should not need to
+ override or extend the :meth:`__init__` method.
+
+ :class:`BaseHTTPRequestHandler` has the following instance variables:
+
+
+ .. attribute:: client_address
+
+ Contains a tuple of the form ``(host, port)`` referring to the client's
+ address.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: server
+
+ Contains the server instance.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: command
+
+ Contains the command (request type). For example, ``'GET'``.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: path
+
+ Contains the request path.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: request_version
+
+ Contains the version string from the request. For example, ``'HTTP/1.0'``.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: headers
+
+ Holds an instance of the class specified by the :attr:`MessageClass` class
+ variable. This instance parses and manages the headers in the HTTP
+ request.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: rfile
+
+ Contains an input stream, positioned at the start of the optional input
+ data.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: wfile
+
+ Contains the output stream for writing a response back to the
+ client. Proper adherence to the HTTP protocol must be used when writing to
+ this stream.
+
+
+ :class:`BaseHTTPRequestHandler` has the following class variables:
+
+
+ .. attribute:: server_version
+
+ Specifies the server software version. You may want to override this. The
+ format is multiple whitespace-separated strings, where each string is of
+ the form name[/version]. For example, ``'BaseHTTP/0.2'``.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: sys_version
+
+ Contains the Python system version, in a form usable by the
+ :attr:`version_string` method and the :attr:`server_version` class
+ variable. For example, ``'Python/1.4'``.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: error_message_format
+
+ Specifies a format string for building an error response to the client. It
+ uses parenthesized, keyed format specifiers, so the format operand must be
+ a dictionary. The *code* key should be an integer, specifying the numeric
+ HTTP error code value. *message* should be a string containing a
+ (detailed) error message of what occurred, and *explain* should be an
+ explanation of the error code number. Default *message* and *explain*
+ values can found in the *responses* class variable.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: error_content_type
+
+ Specifies the Content-Type HTTP header of error responses sent to the
+ client. The default value is ``'text/html'``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+ Previously, the content type was always ``'text/html'``.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: protocol_version
+
+ This specifies the HTTP protocol version used in responses. If set to
+ ``'HTTP/1.1'``, the server will permit HTTP persistent connections;
+ however, your server *must* then include an accurate ``Content-Length``
+ header (using :meth:`send_header`) in all of its responses to clients.
+ For backwards compatibility, the setting defaults to ``'HTTP/1.0'``.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: MessageClass
+
+ .. index:: single: Message (in module mimetools)
+
+ Specifies a :class:`rfc822.Message`\ -like class to parse HTTP headers.
+ Typically, this is not overridden, and it defaults to
+ :class:`mimetools.Message`.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: responses
+
+ This variable contains a mapping of error code integers to two-element tuples
+ containing a short and long message. For example, ``{code: (shortmessage,
+ longmessage)}``. The *shortmessage* is usually used as the *message* key in an
+ error response, and *longmessage* as the *explain* key (see the
+ :attr:`error_message_format` class variable).
+
+
+ A :class:`BaseHTTPRequestHandler` instance has the following methods:
+
+
+ .. method:: handle()
+
+ Calls :meth:`handle_one_request` once (or, if persistent connections are
+ enabled, multiple times) to handle incoming HTTP requests. You should
+ never need to override it; instead, implement appropriate :meth:`do_\*`
+ methods.
+
+
+ .. method:: handle_one_request()
+
+ This method will parse and dispatch the request to the appropriate
+ :meth:`do_\*` method. You should never need to override it.
+
+
+ .. method:: send_error(code[, message])
+
+ Sends and logs a complete error reply to the client. The numeric *code*
+ specifies the HTTP error code, with *message* as optional, more specific text. A
+ complete set of headers is sent, followed by text composed using the
+ :attr:`error_message_format` class variable.
+
+
+ .. method:: send_response(code[, message])
+
+ Sends a response header and logs the accepted request. The HTTP response
+ line is sent, followed by *Server* and *Date* headers. The values for
+ these two headers are picked up from the :meth:`version_string` and
+ :meth:`date_time_string` methods, respectively.
+
+
+ .. method:: send_header(keyword, value)
+
+ Writes a specific HTTP header to the output stream. *keyword* should
+ specify the header keyword, with *value* specifying its value.
+
+
+ .. method:: end_headers()
+
+ Sends a blank line, indicating the end of the HTTP headers in the
+ response.
+
+
+ .. method:: log_request([code[, size]])
+
+ Logs an accepted (successful) request. *code* should specify the numeric
+ HTTP code associated with the response. If a size of the response is
+ available, then it should be passed as the *size* parameter.
+
+
+ .. method:: log_error(...)
+
+ Logs an error when a request cannot be fulfilled. By default, it passes
+ the message to :meth:`log_message`, so it takes the same arguments
+ (*format* and additional values).
+
+
+ .. method:: log_message(format, ...)
+
+ Logs an arbitrary message to ``sys.stderr``. This is typically overridden
+ to create custom error logging mechanisms. The *format* argument is a
+ standard printf-style format string, where the additional arguments to
+ :meth:`log_message` are applied as inputs to the formatting. The client
+ ip address and current date and time are prefixed to every message logged.
+
+
+ .. method:: version_string()
+
+ Returns the server software's version string. This is a combination of the
+ :attr:`server_version` and :attr:`sys_version` class variables.
+
+
+ .. method:: date_time_string([timestamp])
+
+ Returns the date and time given by *timestamp* (which must be in the
+ format returned by :func:`time.time`), formatted for a message header. If
+ *timestamp* is omitted, it uses the current date and time.
+
+ The result looks like ``'Sun, 06 Nov 1994 08:49:37 GMT'``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+ The *timestamp* parameter.
+
+
+ .. method:: log_date_time_string()
+
+ Returns the current date and time, formatted for logging.
+
+
+ .. method:: address_string()
+
+ Returns the client address, formatted for logging. A name lookup is
+ performed on the client's IP address.
+
+

+================================================
+

+ The :mod:`Bastion` module has been removed in Python 3.
+

+.. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ Disabled module.
+
+.. note::
+
+ The documentation has been left in place to help in reading old code that uses

+
+According to the dictionary, a bastion is "a fortified area or position", or
+"something that is considered a stronghold." It's a suitable name for this
+module, which provides a way to forbid access to certain attributes of an
+object. It must always be used with the :mod:`rexec` module, in order to allow
+restricted-mode programs access to certain safe attributes of an object, while
+denying access to other, unsafe attributes.
+
+.. I'm concerned that the word 'bastion' won't be understood by people
+.. for whom English is a second language, making the module name
+.. somewhat mysterious. Thus, the brief definition... --amk
+
+.. I've punted on the issue of documenting keyword arguments for now.
+
+
+.. function:: Bastion(object[, filter[, name[, class]]])
+
+ Protect the object *object*, returning a bastion for the object. Any attempt to
+ access one of the object's attributes will have to be approved by the *filter*
+ function; if the access is denied an :exc:`AttributeError` exception will be
+ raised.
+
+ If present, *filter* must be a function that accepts a string containing an
+ attribute name, and returns true if access to that attribute will be permitted;
+ if *filter* returns false, the access is denied. The default filter denies
+ access to any function beginning with an underscore (``'_'``). The bastion's
+ string representation will be ``<Bastion for name>`` if a value for *name* is
+ provided; otherwise, ``repr(object)`` will be used.
+
+ *class*, if present, should be a subclass of :class:`BastionClass`; see the
+ code in :file:`bastion.py` for the details. Overriding the default
+ :class:`BastionClass` will rarely be required.
+
+
+.. class:: BastionClass(getfunc, name)
+
+ Class which actually implements bastion objects. This is the default class used
+ by :func:`Bastion`. The *getfunc* parameter is a function which returns the

+ environment when called with the name of the attribute as the only parameter.
+ *name* is used to construct the :func:`repr` of the :class:`BastionClass`
+ instance.

+:mod:`bdb` --- Debugger framework
+=================================
+
+.. module:: bdb
+ :synopsis: Debugger framework.
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/bdb.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`bdb` module handles basic debugger functions, like setting breakpoints
+or managing execution via the debugger.
+
+The following exception is defined:
+
+.. exception:: BdbQuit
+
+ Exception raised by the :class:`Bdb` class for quitting the debugger.
+
+
+The :mod:`bdb` module also defines two classes:
+
+.. class:: Breakpoint(self, file, line, temporary=0, cond=None , funcname=None)
+
+ This class implements temporary breakpoints, ignore counts, disabling and
+ (re-)enabling, and conditionals.
+
+ Breakpoints are indexed by number through a list called :attr:`bpbynumber`
+ and by ``(file, line)`` pairs through :attr:`bplist`. The former points to a
+ single instance of class :class:`Breakpoint`. The latter points to a list of
+ such instances since there may be more than one breakpoint per line.
+
+ When creating a breakpoint, its associated filename should be in canonical
+ form. If a *funcname* is defined, a breakpoint hit will be counted when the
+ first line of that function is executed. A conditional breakpoint always
+ counts a hit.
+
+ :class:`Breakpoint` instances have the following methods:
+
+ .. method:: deleteMe()
+
+ Delete the breakpoint from the list associated to a file/line. If it is
+ the last breakpoint in that position, it also deletes the entry for the
+ file/line.
+
+
+ .. method:: enable()
+
+ Mark the breakpoint as enabled.
+
+
+ .. method:: disable()
+
+ Mark the breakpoint as disabled.
+
+
+ .. method:: pprint([out])
+
+ Print all the information about the breakpoint:
+
+ * The breakpoint number.
+ * If it is temporary or not.
+ * Its file,line position.
+ * The condition that causes a break.
+ * If it must be ignored the next N times.
+ * The breakpoint hit count.
+
+
+.. class:: Bdb(skip=None)
+
+ The :class:`Bdb` class acts as a generic Python debugger base class.
+
+ This class takes care of the details of the trace facility; a derived class
+ should implement user interaction. The standard debugger class
+ (:class:`pdb.Pdb`) is an example.
+
+ The *skip* argument, if given, must be an iterable of glob-style
+ module name patterns. The debugger will not step into frames that
+ originate in a module that matches one of these patterns. Whether a
+ frame is considered to originate in a certain module is determined
+ by the ``__name__`` in the frame globals.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+ The *skip* argument.
+
+ The following methods of :class:`Bdb` normally don't need to be overridden.
+
+ .. method:: canonic(filename)
+
+ Auxiliary method for getting a filename in a canonical form, that is, as a
+ case-normalized (on case-insensitive filesystems) absolute path, stripped
+ of surrounding angle brackets.
+
+ .. method:: reset()
+
+ Set the :attr:`botframe`, :attr:`stopframe`, :attr:`returnframe` and
+ :attr:`quitting` attributes with values ready to start debugging.
+
+ .. method:: trace_dispatch(frame, event, arg)
+
+ This function is installed as the trace function of debugged frames. Its
+ return value is the new trace function (in most cases, that is, itself).
+
+ The default implementation decides how to dispatch a frame, depending on
+ the type of event (passed as a string) that is about to be executed.
+ *event* can be one of the following:
+
+ * ``"line"``: A new line of code is going to be executed.

+
+ Normally derived classes don't override the following methods, but they may

+
+ .. method:: stop_here(frame)
+
+ This method checks if the *frame* is somewhere below :attr:`botframe` in
+ the call stack. :attr:`botframe` is the frame in which debugging started.
+
+ .. method:: break_here(frame)
+
+ This method checks if there is a breakpoint in the filename and line
+ belonging to *frame* or, at least, in the current function. If the
+ breakpoint is a temporary one, this method deletes it.
+
+ .. method:: break_anywhere(frame)
+
+ This method checks if there is a breakpoint in the filename of the current
+ frame.
+
+ Derived classes should override these methods to gain control over debugger
+ operation.
+
+ .. method:: user_call(frame, argument_list)
+
+ This method is called from :meth:`dispatch_call` when there is the
+ possibility that a break might be necessary anywhere inside the called
+ function.
+
+ .. method:: user_line(frame)
+
+ This method is called from :meth:`dispatch_line` when either
+ :meth:`stop_here` or :meth:`break_here` yields True.
+
+ .. method:: user_return(frame, return_value)
+
+ This method is called from :meth:`dispatch_return` when :meth:`stop_here`
+ yields True.
+
+ .. method:: user_exception(frame, exc_info)
+
+ This method is called from :meth:`dispatch_exception` when
+ :meth:`stop_here` yields True.
+
+ .. method:: do_clear(arg)
+
+ Handle how a breakpoint must be removed when it is a temporary one.
+
+ This method must be implemented by derived classes.
+
+
+ Derived classes and clients can call the following methods to affect the
+ stepping state.
+
+ .. method:: set_step()
+
+ Stop after one line of code.
+
+ .. method:: set_next(frame)
+
+ Stop on the next line in or below the given frame.
+
+ .. method:: set_return(frame)
+
+ Stop when returning from the given frame.
+
+ .. method:: set_until(frame)
+
+ Stop when the line with the line no greater than the current one is
+ reached or when returning from current frame
+
+ .. method:: set_trace([frame])
+
+ Start debugging from *frame*. If *frame* is not specified, debugging
+ starts from caller's frame.
+
+ .. method:: set_continue()
+
+ Stop only at breakpoints or when finished. If there are no breakpoints,
+ set the system trace function to None.
+
+ .. method:: set_quit()
+
+ Set the :attr:`quitting` attribute to True. This raises :exc:`BdbQuit` in
+ the next call to one of the :meth:`dispatch_\*` methods.
+
+
+ Derived classes and clients can call the following methods to manipulate
+ breakpoints. These methods return a string containing an error message if
+ something went wrong, or ``None`` if all is well.
+
+ .. method:: set_break(filename, lineno, temporary=0, cond=None, funcname=None)
+
+ Set a new breakpoint. If the *lineno* line doesn't exist for the
+ *filename* passed as argument, return an error message. The *filename*
+ should be in canonical form, as described in the :meth:`canonic` method.
+
+ .. method:: clear_break(filename, lineno)
+
+ Delete the breakpoints in *filename* and *lineno*. If none were set, an
+ error message is returned.
+
+ .. method:: clear_bpbynumber(arg)
+
+ Delete the breakpoint which has the index *arg* in the
+ :attr:`Breakpoint.bpbynumber`. If *arg* is not numeric or out of range,
+ return an error message.
+
+ .. method:: clear_all_file_breaks(filename)
+
+ Delete all breakpoints in *filename*. If none were set, an error message
+ is returned.
+
+ .. method:: clear_all_breaks()
+
+ Delete all existing breakpoints.
+
+ .. method:: get_break(filename, lineno)
+
+ Check if there is a breakpoint for *lineno* of *filename*.
+
+ .. method:: get_breaks(filename, lineno)
+
+ Return all breakpoints for *lineno* in *filename*, or an empty list if
+ none are set.
+
+ .. method:: get_file_breaks(filename)
+
+ Return all breakpoints in *filename*, or an empty list if none are set.
+
+ .. method:: get_all_breaks()
+
+ Return all breakpoints that are set.
+
+
+ Derived classes and clients can call the following methods to get a data
+ structure representing a stack trace.
+
+ .. method:: get_stack(f, t)
+
+ Get a list of records for a frame and all higher (calling) and lower
+ frames, and the size of the higher part.
+
+ .. method:: format_stack_entry(frame_lineno, [lprefix=': '])
+
+ Return a string with information about a stack entry, identified by a
+ ``(frame, lineno)`` tuple:
+
+ * The canonical form of the filename which contains the frame.
+ * The function name, or ``"<lambda>"``.
+ * The input arguments.
+ * The return value.
+ * The line of code (if it exists).
+
+
+ The following two methods can be called by clients to use a debugger to debug
+ a :term:`statement`, given as a string.
+
+ .. method:: run(cmd, [globals, [locals]])
+
+ Debug a statement executed via the :keyword:`exec` statement. *globals*
+ defaults to :attr:`__main__.__dict__`, *locals* defaults to *globals*.
+
+ .. method:: runeval(expr, [globals, [locals]])
+
+ Debug an expression executed via the :func:`eval` function. *globals* and
+ *locals* have the same meaning as in :meth:`run`.
+
+ .. method:: runctx(cmd, globals, locals)
+
+ For backwards compatibility. Calls the :meth:`run` method.
+
+ .. method:: runcall(func, *args, **kwds)
+
+ Debug a single function call, and return its result.
+
+
+Finally, the module defines the following functions:
+
+.. function:: checkfuncname(b, frame)
+
+ Check whether we should break here, depending on the way the breakpoint *b*
+ was set.
+
+ If it was set via line number, it checks if ``b.line`` is the same as the one
+ in the frame also passed as argument. If the breakpoint was set via function
+ name, we have to check we are in the right frame (the right function) and if
+ we are in its first executable line.
+
+.. function:: effective(file, line, frame)
+
+ Determine if there is an effective (active) breakpoint at this line of code.
+ Return a tuple of the breakpoint and a boolean that indicates if it is ok
+ to delete a temporary breakpoint. Return ``(None, None)`` if there is no
+ matching breakpoint.
+
+.. function:: set_trace()
+
+ Start debugging with a :class:`Bdb` instance from caller's frame.

+:mod:`binascii` --- Convert between binary and ASCII
+====================================================
+
+.. module:: binascii
+ :synopsis: Tools for converting between binary and various ASCII-encoded binary
+ representations.
+
+
+.. index::
+ module: uu
+ module: base64
+ module: binhex
+
+The :mod:`binascii` module contains a number of methods to convert between
+binary and various ASCII-encoded binary representations. Normally, you will not
+use these functions directly but use wrapper modules like :mod:`uu`,
+:mod:`base64`, or :mod:`binhex` instead. The :mod:`binascii` module contains
+low-level functions written in C for greater speed that are used by the
+higher-level modules.
+
+The :mod:`binascii` module defines the following functions:
+
+
+.. function:: a2b_uu(string)
+
+ Convert a single line of uuencoded data back to binary and return the binary
+ data. Lines normally contain 45 (binary) bytes, except for the last line. Line
+ data may be followed by whitespace.
+
+
+.. function:: b2a_uu(data)
+
+ Convert binary data to a line of ASCII characters, the return value is the
+ converted line, including a newline char. The length of *data* should be at most
+ 45.
+
+
+.. function:: a2b_base64(string)
+
+ Convert a block of base64 data back to binary and return the binary data. More
+ than one line may be passed at a time.
+
+
+.. function:: b2a_base64(data)
+
+ Convert binary data to a line of ASCII characters in base64 coding. The return
+ value is the converted line, including a newline char. The length of *data*
+ should be at most 57 to adhere to the base64 standard.
+
+
+.. function:: a2b_qp(string[, header])
+
+ Convert a block of quoted-printable data back to binary and return the binary
+ data. More than one line may be passed at a time. If the optional argument
+ *header* is present and true, underscores will be decoded as spaces.
+
+
+.. function:: b2a_qp(data[, quotetabs, istext, header])
+
+ Convert binary data to a line(s) of ASCII characters in quoted-printable
+ encoding. The return value is the converted line(s). If the optional argument
+ *quotetabs* is present and true, all tabs and spaces will be encoded. If the
+ optional argument *istext* is present and true, newlines are not encoded but
+ trailing whitespace will be encoded. If the optional argument *header* is
+ present and true, spaces will be encoded as underscores per RFC1522. If the
+ optional argument *header* is present and false, newline characters will be
+ encoded as well; otherwise linefeed conversion might corrupt the binary data
+ stream.
+
+
+.. function:: a2b_hqx(string)
+
+ Convert binhex4 formatted ASCII data to binary, without doing RLE-decompression.
+ The string should contain a complete number of binary bytes, or (in case of the
+ last portion of the binhex4 data) have the remaining bits zero.
+
+
+.. function:: rledecode_hqx(data)
+
+ Perform RLE-decompression on the data, as per the binhex4 standard. The
+ algorithm uses ``0x90`` after a byte as a repeat indicator, followed by a count.
+ A count of ``0`` specifies a byte value of ``0x90``. The routine returns the
+ decompressed data, unless data input data ends in an orphaned repeat indicator,
+ in which case the :exc:`Incomplete` exception is raised.
+
+
+.. function:: rlecode_hqx(data)
+
+ Perform binhex4 style RLE-compression on *data* and return the result.
+
+
+.. function:: b2a_hqx(data)
+
+ Perform hexbin4 binary-to-ASCII translation and return the resulting string. The
+ argument should already be RLE-coded, and have a length divisible by 3 (except
+ possibly the last fragment).
+
+
+.. function:: crc_hqx(data, crc)
+
+ Compute the binhex4 crc value of *data*, starting with an initial *crc* and
+ returning the result.
+
+
+.. function:: crc32(data[, crc])
+
+ Compute CRC-32, the 32-bit checksum of data, starting with an initial crc. This
+ is consistent with the ZIP file checksum. Since the algorithm is designed for
+ use as a checksum algorithm, it is not suitable for use as a general hash
+ algorithm. Use as follows::
+
+ print binascii.crc32("hello world")
+ # Or, in two pieces:
+ crc = binascii.crc32("hello")
+ crc = binascii.crc32(" world", crc) & 0xffffffff
+ print 'crc32 = 0x%08x' % crc
+
+.. note::
+ To generate the same numeric value across all Python versions and
+ platforms use crc32(data) & 0xffffffff. If you are only using
+ the checksum in packed binary format this is not necessary as the
+ return value is the correct 32bit binary representation
+ regardless of sign.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ The return value is in the range [-2**31, 2**31-1]
+ regardless of platform. In the past the value would be signed on
+ some platforms and unsigned on others. Use & 0xffffffff on the
+ value if you want it to match Python 3 behavior.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 3.0
+ The return value is unsigned and in the range [0, 2**32-1]
+ regardless of platform.
+
+
+.. function:: b2a_hex(data)
+ hexlify(data)
+
+ Return the hexadecimal representation of the binary *data*. Every byte of
+ *data* is converted into the corresponding 2-digit hex representation. The
+ resulting string is therefore twice as long as the length of *data*.
+
+
+.. function:: a2b_hex(hexstr)
+ unhexlify(hexstr)
+
+ Return the binary data represented by the hexadecimal string *hexstr*. This
+ function is the inverse of :func:`b2a_hex`. *hexstr* must contain an even number
+ of hexadecimal digits (which can be upper or lower case), otherwise a
+ :exc:`TypeError` is raised.
+
+
+.. exception:: Error
+
+ Exception raised on errors. These are usually programming errors.
+
+
+.. exception:: Incomplete
+
+ Exception raised on incomplete data. These are usually not programming errors,
+ but may be handled by reading a little more data and trying again.

+:mod:`bisect` --- Array bisection algorithm
+===========================================
+
+.. module:: bisect
+ :synopsis: Array bisection algorithms for binary searching.
+.. sectionauthor:: Fred L. Drake, Jr. <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Raymond Hettinger <python at rcn.com>
+.. example based on the PyModules FAQ entry by Aaron Watters <[email protected]>
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.1
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/bisect.py`
+
+--------------
+
+This module provides support for maintaining a list in sorted order without
+having to sort the list after each insertion. For long lists of items with
+expensive comparison operations, this can be an improvement over the more common
+approach. The module is called :mod:`bisect` because it uses a basic bisection
+algorithm to do its work. The source code may be most useful as a working
+example of the algorithm (the boundary conditions are already right!).
+
+The following functions are provided:
+
+
+.. function:: bisect_left(a, x, lo=0, hi=len(a))
+
+ Locate the insertion point for *x* in *a* to maintain sorted order.
+ The parameters *lo* and *hi* may be used to specify a subset of the list
+ which should be considered; by default the entire list is used. If *x* is
+ already present in *a*, the insertion point will be before (to the left of)
+ any existing entries. The return value is suitable for use as the first
+ parameter to ``list.insert()`` assuming that *a* is already sorted.
+
+ The returned insertion point *i* partitions the array *a* into two halves so
+ that ``all(val < x for val in a[lo:i])`` for the left side and
+ ``all(val >= x for val in a[i:hi])`` for the right side.
+
+.. function:: bisect_right(a, x, lo=0, hi=len(a))
+ bisect(a, x, lo=0, hi=len(a))
+
+ Similar to :func:`bisect_left`, but returns an insertion point which comes
+ after (to the right of) any existing entries of *x* in *a*.
+
+ The returned insertion point *i* partitions the array *a* into two halves so
+ that ``all(val <= x for val in a[lo:i])`` for the left side and
+ ``all(val > x for val in a[i:hi])`` for the right side.
+
+.. function:: insort_left(a, x, lo=0, hi=len(a))
+
+ Insert *x* in *a* in sorted order. This is equivalent to
+ ``a.insert(bisect.bisect_left(a, x, lo, hi), x)`` assuming that *a* is
+ already sorted. Keep in mind that the O(log n) search is dominated by
+ the slow O(n) insertion step.
+
+.. function:: insort_right(a, x, lo=0, hi=len(a))
+ insort(a, x, lo=0, hi=len(a))
+
+ Similar to :func:`insort_left`, but inserting *x* in *a* after any existing
+ entries of *x*.
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ `SortedCollection recipe
+ <http://code.activestate.com/recipes/577197-sortedcollection/>`_ that uses
+ bisect to build a full-featured collection class with straight-forward search
+ methods and support for a key-function. The keys are precomputed to save
+ unnecessary calls to the key function during searches.
+
+
+Searching Sorted Lists
+----------------------
+
+The above :func:`bisect` functions are useful for finding insertion points but
+can be tricky or awkward to use for common searching tasks. The following five
+functions show how to transform them into the standard lookups for sorted
+lists::
+
+ def index(a, x):
+ 'Locate the leftmost value exactly equal to x'
+ i = bisect_left(a, x)
+ if i != len(a) and a[i] == x:
+ return i
+ raise ValueError
+
+ def find_lt(a, x):
+ 'Find rightmost value less than x'
+ i = bisect_left(a, x)
+ if i:
+ return a[i-1]
+ raise ValueError
+
+ def find_le(a, x):
+ 'Find rightmost value less than or equal to x'
+ i = bisect_right(a, x)
+ if i:
+ return a[i-1]
+ raise ValueError
+
+ def find_gt(a, x):
+ 'Find leftmost value greater than x'
+ i = bisect_right(a, x)
+ if i != len(a):
+ return a[i]
+ raise ValueError
+
+ def find_ge(a, x):
+ 'Find leftmost item greater than or equal to x'
+ i = bisect_left(a, x)
+ if i != len(a):
+ return a[i]
+ raise ValueError
+
+
+Other Examples
+--------------
+
+.. _bisect-example:
+
+The :func:`bisect` function can be useful for numeric table lookups. This
+example uses :func:`bisect` to look up a letter grade for an exam score (say)
+based on a set of ordered numeric breakpoints: 90 and up is an 'A', 80 to 89 is
+a 'B', and so on::
+
+ >>> def grade(score, breakpoints=[60, 70, 80, 90], grades='FDCBA'):
+ i = bisect(breakpoints, score)
+ return grades[i]
+
+ >>> [grade(score) for score in [33, 99, 77, 70, 89, 90, 100]]
+ ['F', 'A', 'C', 'C', 'B', 'A', 'A']
+
+Unlike the :func:`sorted` function, it does not make sense for the :func:`bisect`
+functions to have *key* or *reversed* arguments because that would lead to an
+inefficient design (successive calls to bisect functions would not "remember"
+all of the previous key lookups).
+
+Instead, it is better to search a list of precomputed keys to find the index
+of the record in question::
+
+ >>> data = [('red', 5), ('blue', 1), ('yellow', 8), ('black', 0)]
+ >>> data.sort(key=lambda r: r[1])
+ >>> keys = [r[1] for r in data] # precomputed list of keys
+ >>> data[bisect_left(keys, 0)]
+ ('black', 0)
+ >>> data[bisect_left(keys, 1)]
+ ('blue', 1)
+ >>> data[bisect_left(keys, 5)]
+ ('red', 5)
+ >>> data[bisect_left(keys, 8)]
+ ('yellow', 8)

+:mod:`bsddb` --- Interface to Berkeley DB library
+=================================================
+
+.. module:: bsddb
+ :synopsis: Interface to Berkeley DB database library
+.. sectionauthor:: Skip Montanaro <[email protected]>
+
+.. deprecated:: 2.6
+ The :mod:`bsddb` module has been removed in Python 3.
+
+
+The :mod:`bsddb` module provides an interface to the Berkeley DB library. Users
+can create hash, btree or record based library files using the appropriate open
+call. Bsddb objects behave generally like dictionaries. Keys and values must be
+strings, however, so to use other objects as keys or to store other kinds of
+objects the user must serialize them somehow, typically using
+:func:`marshal.dumps` or :func:`pickle.dumps`.
+
+The :mod:`bsddb` module requires a Berkeley DB library version from 4.0 thru
+4.7.
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ http://www.jcea.es/programacion/pybsddb.htm
+ The website with documentation for the :mod:`bsddb.db` Python Berkeley DB
+ interface that closely mirrors the object oriented interface provided in
+ Berkeley DB 4.x itself.
+
+ http://www.oracle.com/database/berkeley-db/
+ The Berkeley DB library.
+
+A more modern DB, DBEnv and DBSequence object interface is available in the
+:mod:`bsddb.db` module which closely matches the Berkeley DB C API documented at
+the above URLs. Additional features provided by the :mod:`bsddb.db` API include
+fine tuning, transactions, logging, and multiprocess concurrent database access.
+
+The following is a description of the legacy :mod:`bsddb` interface compatible
+with the old Python bsddb module. Starting in Python 2.5 this interface should
+be safe for multithreaded access. The :mod:`bsddb.db` API is recommended for
+threading users as it provides better control.
+
+The :mod:`bsddb` module defines the following functions that create objects that
+access the appropriate type of Berkeley DB file. The first two arguments of
+each function are the same. For ease of portability, only the first two
+arguments should be used in most instances.
+
+
+.. function:: hashopen(filename[, flag[, mode[, pgsize[, ffactor[, nelem[, cachesize[, lorder[, hflags]]]]]]]])
+
+ Open the hash format file named *filename*. Files never intended to be
+ preserved on disk may be created by passing ``None`` as the *filename*. The
+ optional *flag* identifies the mode used to open the file. It may be ``'r'``
+ (read only), ``'w'`` (read-write) , ``'c'`` (read-write - create if necessary;
+ the default) or ``'n'`` (read-write - truncate to zero length). The other
+ arguments are rarely used and are just passed to the low-level :c:func:`dbopen`
+ function. Consult the Berkeley DB documentation for their use and
+ interpretation.
+
+
+.. function:: btopen(filename[, flag[, mode[, btflags[, cachesize[, maxkeypage[, minkeypage[, pgsize[, lorder]]]]]]]])
+
+ Open the btree format file named *filename*. Files never intended to be
+ preserved on disk may be created by passing ``None`` as the *filename*. The
+ optional *flag* identifies the mode used to open the file. It may be ``'r'``
+ (read only), ``'w'`` (read-write), ``'c'`` (read-write - create if necessary;
+ the default) or ``'n'`` (read-write - truncate to zero length). The other
+ arguments are rarely used and are just passed to the low-level dbopen function.

+
+
+.. function:: rnopen(filename[, flag[, mode[, rnflags[, cachesize[, pgsize[, lorder[, rlen[, delim[, source[, pad]]]]]]]]]])
+
+ Open a DB record format file named *filename*. Files never intended to be

+ optional *flag* identifies the mode used to open the file. It may be ``'r'``
+ (read only), ``'w'`` (read-write), ``'c'`` (read-write - create if necessary;
+ the default) or ``'n'`` (read-write - truncate to zero length). The other
+ arguments are rarely used and are just passed to the low-level dbopen function.
+ Consult the Berkeley DB documentation for their use and interpretation.
+
+.. note::
+
+ Beginning in 2.3 some Unix versions of Python may have a :mod:`bsddb185` module.
+ This is present *only* to allow backwards compatibility with systems which ship
+ with the old Berkeley DB 1.85 database library. The :mod:`bsddb185` module
+ should never be used directly in new code. The module has been removed in
+ Python 3. If you find you still need it look in PyPI.

+Hash, BTree and Record Objects
+------------------------------
+
+Once instantiated, hash, btree and record objects support the same methods as
+dictionaries. In addition, they support the methods listed below.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.3.1
+ Added dictionary methods.
+
+
+.. method:: bsddbobject.close()
+
+ Close the underlying file. The object can no longer be accessed. Since there
+ is no open :meth:`open` method for these objects, to open the file again a new
+ :mod:`bsddb` module open function must be called.
+
+
+.. method:: bsddbobject.keys()
+
+ Return the list of keys contained in the DB file. The order of the list is
+ unspecified and should not be relied on. In particular, the order of the list
+ returned is different for different file formats.
+
+
+.. method:: bsddbobject.has_key(key)
+
+ Return ``1`` if the DB file contains the argument as a key.
+
+
+.. method:: bsddbobject.set_location(key)
+
+ Set the cursor to the item indicated by *key* and return a tuple containing the
+ key and its value. For binary tree databases (opened using :func:`btopen`), if
+ *key* does not actually exist in the database, the cursor will point to the next
+ item in sorted order and return that key and value. For other databases,
+ :exc:`KeyError` will be raised if *key* is not found in the database.
+
+
+.. method:: bsddbobject.first()
+
+ Set the cursor to the first item in the DB file and return it. The order of
+ keys in the file is unspecified, except in the case of B-Tree databases. This
+ method raises :exc:`bsddb.error` if the database is empty.
+
+
+.. method:: bsddbobject.next()
+
+ Set the cursor to the next item in the DB file and return it. The order of
+ keys in the file is unspecified, except in the case of B-Tree databases.
+
+
+.. method:: bsddbobject.previous()
+
+ Set the cursor to the previous item in the DB file and return it. The order of
+ keys in the file is unspecified, except in the case of B-Tree databases. This
+ is not supported on hashtable databases (those opened with :func:`hashopen`).
+
+
+.. method:: bsddbobject.last()
+
+ Set the cursor to the last item in the DB file and return it. The order of keys
+ in the file is unspecified. This is not supported on hashtable databases (those
+ opened with :func:`hashopen`). This method raises :exc:`bsddb.error` if the
+ database is empty.
+
+
+.. method:: bsddbobject.sync()
+
+ Synchronize the database on disk.
+
+Example::
+
+ >>> import bsddb
+ >>> db = bsddb.btopen('spam.db', 'c')
+ >>> for i in range(10): db['%d'%i] = '%d'% (i*i)
+ ...
+ >>> db['3']

+:mod:`bz2` --- Compression compatible with :program:`bzip2`
+===========================================================
+
+.. module:: bz2
+ :synopsis: Interface to compression and decompression routines compatible with bzip2.
+.. moduleauthor:: Gustavo Niemeyer <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Gustavo Niemeyer <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+This module provides a comprehensive interface for the bz2 compression library.
+It implements a complete file interface, one-shot (de)compression functions, and
+types for sequential (de)compression.
+
+Here is a summary of the features offered by the bz2 module:
+
+* :class:`BZ2File` class implements a complete file interface, including
+ :meth:`~BZ2File.readline`, :meth:`~BZ2File.readlines`,
+ :meth:`~BZ2File.writelines`, :meth:`~BZ2File.seek`, etc;
+
+* :class:`BZ2File` class implements emulated :meth:`~BZ2File.seek` support;
+
+* :class:`BZ2File` class implements universal newline support;
+
+* :class:`BZ2File` class offers an optimized line iteration using the readahead
+ algorithm borrowed from file objects;
+
+* Sequential (de)compression supported by :class:`BZ2Compressor` and
+ :class:`BZ2Decompressor` classes;
+
+* One-shot (de)compression supported by :func:`compress` and :func:`decompress`
+ functions;
+
+* Thread safety uses individual locking mechanism.
+
+
+(De)compression of files
+------------------------
+
+Handling of compressed files is offered by the :class:`BZ2File` class.
+
+
+.. index::
+ single: universal newlines; bz2.BZ2File class
+
+.. class:: BZ2File(filename[, mode[, buffering[, compresslevel]]])
+
+ Open a bz2 file. Mode can be either ``'r'`` or ``'w'``, for reading (default)
+ or writing. When opened for writing, the file will be created if it doesn't
+ exist, and truncated otherwise. If *buffering* is given, ``0`` means
+ unbuffered, and larger numbers specify the buffer size; the default is
+ ``0``. If *compresslevel* is given, it must be a number between ``1`` and
+ ``9``; the default is ``9``. Add a ``'U'`` to mode to open the file for input
+ in :term:`universal newlines` mode. Any line ending in the input file will be
+ seen as a ``'\n'`` in Python. Also, a file so opened gains the attribute
+ :attr:`newlines`; the value for this attribute is one of ``None`` (no newline
+ read yet), ``'\r'``, ``'\n'``, ``'\r\n'`` or a tuple containing all the
+ newline types seen. Universal newlines are available only when
+ reading. Instances support iteration in the same way as normal :class:`file`
+ instances.
+
+ :class:`BZ2File` supports the :keyword:`with` statement.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ Support for the :keyword:`with` statement was added.
+
+
+ .. note::
+
+ This class does not support input files containing multiple streams (such
+ as those produced by the :program:`pbzip2` tool). When reading such an
+ input file, only the first stream will be accessible. If you require
+ support for multi-stream files, consider using the third-party
+ :mod:`bz2file` module (available from
+ `PyPI <http://pypi.python.org/pypi/bz2file>`_). This module provides a
+ backport of Python 3.3's :class:`BZ2File` class, which does support
+ multi-stream files.
+
+
+ .. method:: close()
+
+ Close the file. Sets data attribute :attr:`closed` to true. A closed file
+ cannot be used for further I/O operations. :meth:`close` may be called
+ more than once without error.
+
+
+ .. method:: read([size])
+
+ Read at most *size* uncompressed bytes, returned as a string. If the
+ *size* argument is negative or omitted, read until EOF is reached.
+
+
+ .. method:: readline([size])
+
+ Return the next line from the file, as a string, retaining newline. A
+ non-negative *size* argument limits the maximum number of bytes to return
+ (an incomplete line may be returned then). Return an empty string at EOF.
+
+
+ .. method:: readlines([size])
+
+ Return a list of lines read. The optional *size* argument, if given, is an
+ approximate bound on the total number of bytes in the lines returned.
+
+
+ .. method:: xreadlines()
+
+ For backward compatibility. :class:`BZ2File` objects now include the
+ performance optimizations previously implemented in the :mod:`xreadlines`
+ module.
+
+ .. deprecated:: 2.3
+ This exists only for compatibility with the method by this name on
+ :class:`file` objects, which is deprecated. Use ``for line in file``
+ instead.
+
+
+ .. method:: seek(offset[, whence])
+
+ Move to new file position. Argument *offset* is a byte count. Optional
+ argument *whence* defaults to ``os.SEEK_SET`` or ``0`` (offset from start
+ of file; offset should be ``>= 0``); other values are ``os.SEEK_CUR`` or
+ ``1`` (move relative to current position; offset can be positive or
+ negative), and ``os.SEEK_END`` or ``2`` (move relative to end of file;
+ offset is usually negative, although many platforms allow seeking beyond
+ the end of a file).
+
+ Note that seeking of bz2 files is emulated, and depending on the
+ parameters the operation may be extremely slow.
+
+
+ .. method:: tell()
+
+ Return the current file position, an integer (may be a long integer).
+
+
+ .. method:: write(data)
+
+ Write string *data* to file. Note that due to buffering, :meth:`close` may
+ be needed before the file on disk reflects the data written.
+
+
+ .. method:: writelines(sequence_of_strings)
+
+ Write the sequence of strings to the file. Note that newlines are not
+ added. The sequence can be any iterable object producing strings. This is
+ equivalent to calling write() for each string.
+
+
+Sequential (de)compression
+--------------------------
+
+Sequential compression and decompression is done using the classes
+:class:`BZ2Compressor` and :class:`BZ2Decompressor`.
+
+
+.. class:: BZ2Compressor([compresslevel])
+
+ Create a new compressor object. This object may be used to compress data
+ sequentially. If you want to compress data in one shot, use the
+ :func:`compress` function instead. The *compresslevel* parameter, if given,
+ must be a number between ``1`` and ``9``; the default is ``9``.
+
+
+ .. method:: compress(data)
+
+ Provide more data to the compressor object. It will return chunks of
+ compressed data whenever possible. When you've finished providing data to
+ compress, call the :meth:`flush` method to finish the compression process,
+ and return what is left in internal buffers.
+
+
+ .. method:: flush()
+
+ Finish the compression process and return what is left in internal
+ buffers. You must not use the compressor object after calling this method.
+
+
+.. class:: BZ2Decompressor()
+
+ Create a new decompressor object. This object may be used to decompress data
+ sequentially. If you want to decompress data in one shot, use the
+ :func:`decompress` function instead.
+
+
+ .. method:: decompress(data)
+
+ Provide more data to the decompressor object. It will return chunks of
+ decompressed data whenever possible. If you try to decompress data after
+ the end of stream is found, :exc:`EOFError` will be raised. If any data
+ was found after the end of stream, it'll be ignored and saved in
+ :attr:`unused_data` attribute.
+
+
+One-shot (de)compression
+------------------------
+
+One-shot compression and decompression is provided through the :func:`compress`
+and :func:`decompress` functions.
+
+
+.. function:: compress(data[, compresslevel])
+
+ Compress *data* in one shot. If you want to compress data sequentially, use
+ an instance of :class:`BZ2Compressor` instead. The *compresslevel* parameter,
+ if given, must be a number between ``1`` and ``9``; the default is ``9``.
+
+
+.. function:: decompress(data)
+
+ Decompress *data* in one shot. If you want to decompress data sequentially,
+ use an instance of :class:`BZ2Decompressor` instead.

+:mod:`calendar` --- General calendar-related functions
+======================================================
+
+.. module:: calendar
+ :synopsis: Functions for working with calendars, including some emulation of the Unix cal
+ program.
+.. sectionauthor:: Drew Csillag <[email protected]>
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/calendar.py`
+
+--------------
+
+This module allows you to output calendars like the Unix :program:`cal` program,
+and provides additional useful functions related to the calendar. By default,
+these calendars have Monday as the first day of the week, and Sunday as the last
+(the European convention). Use :func:`setfirstweekday` to set the first day of
+the week to Sunday (6) or to any other weekday. Parameters that specify dates
+are given as integers. For related
+functionality, see also the :mod:`datetime` and :mod:`time` modules.
+
+Most of these functions and classes rely on the :mod:`datetime` module which
+uses an idealized calendar, the current Gregorian calendar indefinitely extended
+in both directions. This matches the definition of the "proleptic Gregorian"
+calendar in Dershowitz and Reingold's book "Calendrical Calculations", where
+it's the base calendar for all computations.
+
+
+.. class:: Calendar([firstweekday])
+
+ Creates a :class:`Calendar` object. *firstweekday* is an integer specifying the
+ first day of the week. ``0`` is Monday (the default), ``6`` is Sunday.
+
+ A :class:`Calendar` object provides several methods that can be used for
+ preparing the calendar data for formatting. This class doesn't do any formatting
+ itself. This is the job of subclasses.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+ :class:`Calendar` instances have the following methods:
+
+
+ .. method:: iterweekdays()
+
+ Return an iterator for the week day numbers that will be used for one
+ week. The first value from the iterator will be the same as the value of
+ the :attr:`firstweekday` property.
+
+
+ .. method:: itermonthdates(year, month)
+
+ Return an iterator for the month *month* (1-12) in the year *year*. This
+ iterator will return all days (as :class:`datetime.date` objects) for the
+ month and all days before the start of the month or after the end of the
+ month that are required to get a complete week.
+
+
+ .. method:: itermonthdays2(year, month)
+
+ Return an iterator for the month *month* in the year *year* similar to
+ :meth:`itermonthdates`. Days returned will be tuples consisting of a day
+ number and a week day number.
+
+
+ .. method:: itermonthdays(year, month)
+
+ Return an iterator for the month *month* in the year *year* similar to
+ :meth:`itermonthdates`. Days returned will simply be day numbers.
+
+
+ .. method:: monthdatescalendar(year, month)
+
+ Return a list of the weeks in the month *month* of the *year* as full
+ weeks. Weeks are lists of seven :class:`datetime.date` objects.
+
+
+ .. method:: monthdays2calendar(year, month)
+
+ Return a list of the weeks in the month *month* of the *year* as full
+ weeks. Weeks are lists of seven tuples of day numbers and weekday
+ numbers.
+
+
+ .. method:: monthdayscalendar(year, month)
+
+ Return a list of the weeks in the month *month* of the *year* as full
+ weeks. Weeks are lists of seven day numbers.
+
+
+ .. method:: yeardatescalendar(year[, width])
+
+ Return the data for the specified year ready for formatting. The return
+ value is a list of month rows. Each month row contains up to *width*
+ months (defaulting to 3). Each month contains between 4 and 6 weeks and
+ each week contains 1--7 days. Days are :class:`datetime.date` objects.
+
+
+ .. method:: yeardays2calendar(year[, width])
+
+ Return the data for the specified year ready for formatting (similar to
+ :meth:`yeardatescalendar`). Entries in the week lists are tuples of day
+ numbers and weekday numbers. Day numbers outside this month are zero.
+
+
+ .. method:: yeardayscalendar(year[, width])
+
+ Return the data for the specified year ready for formatting (similar to
+ :meth:`yeardatescalendar`). Entries in the week lists are day numbers. Day
+ numbers outside this month are zero.
+
+
+.. class:: TextCalendar([firstweekday])
+
+ This class can be used to generate plain text calendars.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+ :class:`TextCalendar` instances have the following methods:
+
+
+ .. method:: formatmonth(theyear, themonth[, w[, l]])
+
+ Return a month's calendar in a multi-line string. If *w* is provided, it
+ specifies the width of the date columns, which are centered. If *l* is
+ given, it specifies the number of lines that each week will use. Depends
+ on the first weekday as specified in the constructor or set by the
+ :meth:`setfirstweekday` method.
+
+
+ .. method:: prmonth(theyear, themonth[, w[, l]])
+
+ Print a month's calendar as returned by :meth:`formatmonth`.
+
+
+ .. method:: formatyear(theyear[, w[, l[, c[, m]]]])
+
+ Return a *m*-column calendar for an entire year as a multi-line string.
+ Optional parameters *w*, *l*, and *c* are for date column width, lines per
+ week, and number of spaces between month columns, respectively. Depends on
+ the first weekday as specified in the constructor or set by the
+ :meth:`setfirstweekday` method. The earliest year for which a calendar
+ can be generated is platform-dependent.
+
+
+ .. method:: pryear(theyear[, w[, l[, c[, m]]]])
+
+ Print the calendar for an entire year as returned by :meth:`formatyear`.
+
+
+.. class:: HTMLCalendar([firstweekday])
+
+ This class can be used to generate HTML calendars.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+ :class:`HTMLCalendar` instances have the following methods:
+
+
+ .. method:: formatmonth(theyear, themonth[, withyear])
+
+ Return a month's calendar as an HTML table. If *withyear* is true the year
+ will be included in the header, otherwise just the month name will be
+ used.
+
+
+ .. method:: formatyear(theyear[, width])
+
+ Return a year's calendar as an HTML table. *width* (defaulting to 3)
+ specifies the number of months per row.
+
+
+ .. method:: formatyearpage(theyear[, width[, css[, encoding]]])
+
+ Return a year's calendar as a complete HTML page. *width* (defaulting to
+ 3) specifies the number of months per row. *css* is the name for the
+ cascading style sheet to be used. :const:`None` can be passed if no style
+ sheet should be used. *encoding* specifies the encoding to be used for the
+ output (defaulting to the system default encoding).
+
+
+.. class:: LocaleTextCalendar([firstweekday[, locale]])
+
+ This subclass of :class:`TextCalendar` can be passed a locale name in the
+ constructor and will return month and weekday names in the specified locale.
+ If this locale includes an encoding all strings containing month and weekday
+ names will be returned as unicode.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. class:: LocaleHTMLCalendar([firstweekday[, locale]])
+
+ This subclass of :class:`HTMLCalendar` can be passed a locale name in the
+ constructor and will return month and weekday names in the specified
+ locale. If this locale includes an encoding all strings containing month and
+ weekday names will be returned as unicode.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+.. note::
+
+ The :meth:`formatweekday` and :meth:`formatmonthname` methods of these two
+ classes temporarily change the current locale to the given *locale*. Because
+ the current locale is a process-wide setting, they are not thread-safe.
+
+
+For simple text calendars this module provides the following functions.
+
+
+.. function:: setfirstweekday(weekday)
+
+ Sets the weekday (``0`` is Monday, ``6`` is Sunday) to start each week. The
+ values :const:`MONDAY`, :const:`TUESDAY`, :const:`WEDNESDAY`, :const:`THURSDAY`,
+ :const:`FRIDAY`, :const:`SATURDAY`, and :const:`SUNDAY` are provided for
+ convenience. For example, to set the first weekday to Sunday::
+
+ import calendar
+ calendar.setfirstweekday(calendar.SUNDAY)
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+
+.. function:: firstweekday()
+
+ Returns the current setting for the weekday to start each week.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+
+.. function:: isleap(year)
+
+ Returns :const:`True` if *year* is a leap year, otherwise :const:`False`.
+
+
+.. function:: leapdays(y1, y2)
+
+ Returns the number of leap years in the range from *y1* to *y2* (exclusive),
+ where *y1* and *y2* are years.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.0
+ This function didn't work for ranges spanning a century change in Python
+ 1.5.2.
+
+
+.. function:: weekday(year, month, day)
+
+ Returns the day of the week (``0`` is Monday) for *year* (``1970``--...),
+ *month* (``1``--``12``), *day* (``1``--``31``).
+
+
+.. function:: weekheader(n)
+
+ Return a header containing abbreviated weekday names. *n* specifies the width in
+ characters for one weekday.
+
+
+.. function:: monthrange(year, month)
+
+ Returns weekday of first day of the month and number of days in month, for the
+ specified *year* and *month*.
+
+
+.. function:: monthcalendar(year, month)
+
+ Returns a matrix representing a month's calendar. Each row represents a week;
+ days outside of the month a represented by zeros. Each week begins with Monday
+ unless set by :func:`setfirstweekday`.
+
+
+.. function:: prmonth(theyear, themonth[, w[, l]])
+
+ Prints a month's calendar as returned by :func:`month`.
+
+
+.. function:: month(theyear, themonth[, w[, l]])
+
+ Returns a month's calendar in a multi-line string using the :meth:`formatmonth`
+ of the :class:`TextCalendar` class.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+
+.. function:: prcal(year[, w[, l[c]]])
+
+ Prints the calendar for an entire year as returned by :func:`calendar`.
+
+
+.. function:: calendar(year[, w[, l[c]]])
+
+ Returns a 3-column calendar for an entire year as a multi-line string using the
+ :meth:`formatyear` of the :class:`TextCalendar` class.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+
+.. function:: timegm(tuple)
+
+ An unrelated but handy function that takes a time tuple such as returned by the
+ :func:`gmtime` function in the :mod:`time` module, and returns the corresponding
+ Unix timestamp value, assuming an epoch of 1970, and the POSIX encoding. In
+ fact, :func:`time.gmtime` and :func:`timegm` are each others' inverse.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+The :mod:`calendar` module exports the following data attributes:
+
+
+.. data:: day_name
+
+ An array that represents the days of the week in the current locale.
+
+
+.. data:: day_abbr
+
+ An array that represents the abbreviated days of the week in the current locale.
+
+
+.. data:: month_name
+
+ An array that represents the months of the year in the current locale. This
+ follows normal convention of January being month number 1, so it has a length of
+ 13 and ``month_name[0]`` is the empty string.
+
+
+.. data:: month_abbr
+
+ An array that represents the abbreviated months of the year in the current
+ locale. This follows normal convention of January being month number 1, so it
+ has a length of 13 and ``month_abbr[0]`` is the empty string.

+structures declared by the toolbox, and operations will be implemented as
+methods of the object. Other operations will be implemented as functions in the
+module. Not all operations possible in C will also be possible in Python
+(callbacks are often a problem), and parameters will occasionally be different
+in Python (input and output buffers, especially). All methods and functions
+have a :attr:`__doc__` string describing their arguments and return values, and
+for additional description you are referred to `Inside Macintosh
+<http://developer.apple.com/legacy/mac/library/#documentation/macos8/mac8.html>`_ or similar works.
+
+These modules all live in a package called :mod:`Carbon`. Despite that name they
+are not all part of the Carbon framework: CF is really in the CoreFoundation
+framework and Qt is in the QuickTime framework. The normal use pattern is ::
+
+ from Carbon import AE
+
+.. note::
+
+ Most of the OS X APIs that these modules use are deprecated or removed
+ in recent versions of OS X. Many are not available when Python is
+ executing in 64-bit mode. The Carbon modules have been removed in
+ Python 3. You should avoid using them in Python 2.

+:mod:`cd` --- CD-ROM access on SGI systems
+==========================================
+
+.. module:: cd
+ :platform: IRIX
+ :synopsis: Interface to the CD-ROM on Silicon Graphics systems.
+ :deprecated:
+
+
+.. deprecated:: 2.6
+ The :mod:`cd` module has been removed in Python 3.
+
+
+This module provides an interface to the Silicon Graphics CD library. It is
+available only on Silicon Graphics systems.
+
+The way the library works is as follows. A program opens the CD-ROM device with
+:func:`.open` and creates a parser to parse the data from the CD with
+:func:`createparser`. The object returned by :func:`.open` can be used to read
+data from the CD, but also to get status information for the CD-ROM device, and
+to get information about the CD, such as the table of contents. Data from the
+CD is passed to the parser, which parses the frames, and calls any callback
+functions that have previously been added.
+
+An audio CD is divided into :dfn:`tracks` or :dfn:`programs` (the terms are used
+interchangeably). Tracks can be subdivided into :dfn:`indices`. An audio CD
+contains a :dfn:`table of contents` which gives the starts of the tracks on the
+CD. Index 0 is usually the pause before the start of a track. The start of the
+track as given by the table of contents is normally the start of index 1.
+
+Positions on a CD can be represented in two ways. Either a frame number or a
+tuple of three values, minutes, seconds and frames. Most functions use the
+latter representation. Positions can be both relative to the beginning of the
+CD, and to the beginning of the track.
+
+Module :mod:`cd` defines the following functions and constants:
+
+
+.. function:: createparser()
+
+ Create and return an opaque parser object. The methods of the parser object are
+ described below.
+
+
+.. function:: msftoframe(minutes, seconds, frames)
+
+ Converts a ``(minutes, seconds, frames)`` triple representing time in absolute
+ time code into the corresponding CD frame number.
+
+
+.. function:: open([device[, mode]])
+
+ Open the CD-ROM device. The return value is an opaque player object; methods of
+ the player object are described below. The device is the name of the SCSI
+ device file, e.g. ``'/dev/scsi/sc0d4l0'``, or ``None``. If omitted or ``None``,
+ the hardware inventory is consulted to locate a CD-ROM drive. The *mode*, if
+ not omitted, should be the string ``'r'``.
+
+The module defines the following variables:
+
+
+.. exception:: error
+
+ Exception raised on various errors.
+
+
+.. data:: DATASIZE
+
+ The size of one frame's worth of audio data. This is the size of the audio data
+ as passed to the callback of type ``audio``.
+
+
+.. data:: BLOCKSIZE
+
+ The size of one uninterpreted frame of audio data.
+
+The following variables are states as returned by :func:`getstatus`:
+
+
+.. data:: READY
+
+ The drive is ready for operation loaded with an audio CD.
+
+
+.. data:: NODISC
+
+ The drive does not have a CD loaded.
+
+
+.. data:: CDROM
+
+ The drive is loaded with a CD-ROM. Subsequent play or read operations will
+ return I/O errors.
+
+
+.. data:: ERROR
+
+ An error occurred while trying to read the disc or its table of contents.
+
+
+.. data:: PLAYING
+
+ The drive is in CD player mode playing an audio CD through its audio jacks.
+
+
+.. data:: PAUSED
+
+ The drive is in CD layer mode with play paused.
+
+
+.. data:: STILL
+
+ The equivalent of :const:`PAUSED` on older (non 3301) model Toshiba CD-ROM
+ drives. Such drives have never been shipped by SGI.
+
+
+.. data:: audio
+ pnum
+ index
+ ptime
+ atime
+ catalog
+ ident
+ control
+
+ Integer constants describing the various types of parser callbacks that can be
+ set by the :meth:`addcallback` method of CD parser objects (see below).
+
+
+.. _player-objects:
+
+Player Objects
+--------------
+
+Player objects (returned by :func:`.open`) have the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: CD player.allowremoval()
+
+ Unlocks the eject button on the CD-ROM drive permitting the user to eject the
+ caddy if desired.
+
+
+.. method:: CD player.bestreadsize()
+
+ Returns the best value to use for the *num_frames* parameter of the
+ :meth:`readda` method. Best is defined as the value that permits a continuous
+ flow of data from the CD-ROM drive.
+
+
+.. method:: CD player.close()
+
+ Frees the resources associated with the player object. After calling
+ :meth:`close`, the methods of the object should no longer be used.
+
+
+.. method:: CD player.eject()
+
+ Ejects the caddy from the CD-ROM drive.
+
+
+.. method:: CD player.getstatus()
+
+ Returns information pertaining to the current state of the CD-ROM drive. The
+ returned information is a tuple with the following values: *state*, *track*,
+ *rtime*, *atime*, *ttime*, *first*, *last*, *scsi_audio*, *cur_block*. *rtime*
+ is the time relative to the start of the current track; *atime* is the time
+ relative to the beginning of the disc; *ttime* is the total time on the disc.
+ For more information on the meaning of the values, see the man page
+ :manpage:`CDgetstatus(3dm)`. The value of *state* is one of the following:
+ :const:`ERROR`, :const:`NODISC`, :const:`READY`, :const:`PLAYING`,
+ :const:`PAUSED`, :const:`STILL`, or :const:`CDROM`.
+
+
+.. method:: CD player.gettrackinfo(track)
+
+ Returns information about the specified track. The returned information is a
+ tuple consisting of two elements, the start time of the track and the duration
+ of the track.
+
+
+.. method:: CD player.msftoblock(min, sec, frame)
+
+ Converts a minutes, seconds, frames triple representing a time in absolute time
+ code into the corresponding logical block number for the given CD-ROM drive.
+ You should use :func:`msftoframe` rather than :meth:`msftoblock` for comparing
+ times. The logical block number differs from the frame number by an offset
+ required by certain CD-ROM drives.
+
+
+.. method:: CD player.play(start, play)
+
+ Starts playback of an audio CD in the CD-ROM drive at the specified track. The
+ audio output appears on the CD-ROM drive's headphone and audio jacks (if
+ fitted). Play stops at the end of the disc. *start* is the number of the track
+ at which to start playing the CD; if *play* is 0, the CD will be set to an
+ initial paused state. The method :meth:`togglepause` can then be used to
+ commence play.
+
+
+.. method:: CD player.playabs(minutes, seconds, frames, play)
+
+ Like :meth:`play`, except that the start is given in minutes, seconds, and
+ frames instead of a track number.
+
+
+.. method:: CD player.playtrack(start, play)
+
+ Like :meth:`play`, except that playing stops at the end of the track.
+
+
+.. method:: CD player.playtrackabs(track, minutes, seconds, frames, play)
+
+ Like :meth:`play`, except that playing begins at the specified absolute time and
+ ends at the end of the specified track.
+
+
+.. method:: CD player.preventremoval()
+
+ Locks the eject button on the CD-ROM drive thus preventing the user from
+ arbitrarily ejecting the caddy.
+
+
+.. method:: CD player.readda(num_frames)
+
+ Reads the specified number of frames from an audio CD mounted in the CD-ROM
+ drive. The return value is a string representing the audio frames. This string
+ can be passed unaltered to the :meth:`parseframe` method of the parser object.
+
+
+.. method:: CD player.seek(minutes, seconds, frames)
+
+ Sets the pointer that indicates the starting point of the next read of digital
+ audio data from a CD-ROM. The pointer is set to an absolute time code location
+ specified in *minutes*, *seconds*, and *frames*. The return value is the
+ logical block number to which the pointer has been set.
+
+
+.. method:: CD player.seekblock(block)
+
+ Sets the pointer that indicates the starting point of the next read of digital
+ audio data from a CD-ROM. The pointer is set to the specified logical block
+ number. The return value is the logical block number to which the pointer has
+ been set.
+
+
+.. method:: CD player.seektrack(track)
+
+ Sets the pointer that indicates the starting point of the next read of digital
+ audio data from a CD-ROM. The pointer is set to the specified track. The
+ return value is the logical block number to which the pointer has been set.
+
+
+.. method:: CD player.stop()
+
+ Stops the current playing operation.
+
+
+.. method:: CD player.togglepause()
+
+ Pauses the CD if it is playing, and makes it play if it is paused.
+
+
+.. _cd-parser-objects:
+
+Parser Objects
+--------------
+
+Parser objects (returned by :func:`createparser`) have the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: CD parser.addcallback(type, func, arg)
+
+ Adds a callback for the parser. The parser has callbacks for eight different
+ types of data in the digital audio data stream. Constants for these types are
+ defined at the :mod:`cd` module level (see above). The callback is called as
+ follows: ``func(arg, type, data)``, where *arg* is the user supplied argument,
+ *type* is the particular type of callback, and *data* is the data returned for
+ this *type* of callback. The type of the data depends on the *type* of callback
+ as follows:
+
+ +-------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | Type | Value |
+ +=============+=============================================+
+ | ``audio`` | String which can be passed unmodified to |
+ | | :func:`al.writesamps`. |
+ +-------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | ``pnum`` | Integer giving the program (track) number. |
+ +-------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | ``index`` | Integer giving the index number. |
+ +-------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | ``ptime`` | Tuple consisting of the program time in |
+ | | minutes, seconds, and frames. |
+ +-------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | ``atime`` | Tuple consisting of the absolute time in |
+ | | minutes, seconds, and frames. |
+ +-------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | ``catalog`` | String of 13 characters, giving the catalog |
+ | | number of the CD. |
+ +-------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | ``ident`` | String of 12 characters, giving the ISRC |
+ | | identification number of the recording. |
+ | | The string consists of two characters |
+ | | country code, three characters owner code, |
+ | | two characters giving the year, and five |
+ | | characters giving a serial number. |
+ +-------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | ``control`` | Integer giving the control bits from the CD |
+ | | subcode data |
+ +-------------+---------------------------------------------+
+
+
+.. method:: CD parser.deleteparser()
+
+ Deletes the parser and frees the memory it was using. The object should not be
+ used after this call. This call is done automatically when the last reference
+ to the object is removed.
+
+
+.. method:: CD parser.parseframe(frame)
+
+ Parses one or more frames of digital audio data from a CD such as returned by
+ :meth:`readda`. It determines which subcodes are present in the data. If these

+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/cgi.py`
+
+--------------
+
+Support module for Common Gateway Interface (CGI) scripts.
+
+This module defines a number of utilities for use by CGI scripts written in
+Python.
+
+
+Introduction
+------------
+
+.. _cgi-intro:
+
+A CGI script is invoked by an HTTP server, usually to process user input
+submitted through an HTML ``<FORM>`` or ``<ISINDEX>`` element.
+
+Most often, CGI scripts live in the server's special :file:`cgi-bin` directory.
+The HTTP server places all sorts of information about the request (such as the
+client's hostname, the requested URL, the query string, and lots of other
+goodies) in the script's shell environment, executes the script, and sends the
+script's output back to the client.
+
+The script's input is connected to the client too, and sometimes the form data
+is read this way; at other times the form data is passed via the "query string"
+part of the URL. This module is intended to take care of the different cases
+and provide a simpler interface to the Python script. It also provides a number
+of utilities that help in debugging scripts, and the latest addition is support
+for file uploads from a form (if your browser supports it).
+
+The output of a CGI script should consist of two sections, separated by a blank
+line. The first section contains a number of headers, telling the client what
+kind of data is following. Python code to generate a minimal header section
+looks like this::
+
+ print "Content-Type: text/html" # HTML is following
+ print # blank line, end of headers
+
+The second section is usually HTML, which allows the client software to display
+nicely formatted text with header, in-line images, etc. Here's Python code that
+prints a simple piece of HTML::
+
+ print "<TITLE>CGI script output</TITLE>"
+ print "<H1>This is my first CGI script</H1>"
+ print "Hello, world!"
+
+
+.. _using-the-cgi-module:
+
+Using the cgi module
+--------------------
+
+Begin by writing ``import cgi``. Do not use ``from cgi import *`` --- the
+module defines all sorts of names for its own use or for backward compatibility
+that you don't want in your namespace.
+
+When you write a new script, consider adding these lines::
+
+ import cgitb
+ cgitb.enable()
+
+This activates a special exception handler that will display detailed reports in
+the Web browser if any errors occur. If you'd rather not show the guts of your
+program to users of your script, you can have the reports saved to files
+instead, with code like this::
+
+ import cgitb
+ cgitb.enable(display=0, logdir="/path/to/logdir")
+
+It's very helpful to use this feature during script development. The reports
+produced by :mod:`cgitb` provide information that can save you a lot of time in
+tracking down bugs. You can always remove the ``cgitb`` line later when you
+have tested your script and are confident that it works correctly.
+
+To get at submitted form data, it's best to use the :class:`FieldStorage` class.
+The other classes defined in this module are provided mostly for backward
+compatibility. Instantiate it exactly once, without arguments. This reads the
+form contents from standard input or the environment (depending on the value of
+various environment variables set according to the CGI standard). Since it may
+consume standard input, it should be instantiated only once.
+
+The :class:`FieldStorage` instance can be indexed like a Python dictionary.
+It allows membership testing with the :keyword:`in` operator, and also supports
+the standard dictionary method :meth:`keys` and the built-in function
+:func:`len`. Form fields containing empty strings are ignored and do not appear
+in the dictionary; to keep such values, provide a true value for the optional
+*keep_blank_values* keyword parameter when creating the :class:`FieldStorage`
+instance.
+
+For instance, the following code (which assumes that the
+:mailheader:`Content-Type` header and blank line have already been printed)
+checks that the fields ``name`` and ``addr`` are both set to a non-empty
+string::
+
+ form = cgi.FieldStorage()
+ if "name" not in form or "addr" not in form:
+ print "<H1>Error</H1>"
+ print "Please fill in the name and addr fields."
+ return
+ print "<p>name:", form["name"].value
+ print "<p>addr:", form["addr"].value
+ ...further form processing here...
+
+Here the fields, accessed through ``form[key]``, are themselves instances of
+:class:`FieldStorage` (or :class:`MiniFieldStorage`, depending on the form
+encoding). The :attr:`value` attribute of the instance yields the string value
+of the field. The :meth:`getvalue` method returns this string value directly;
+it also accepts an optional second argument as a default to return if the
+requested key is not present.
+
+If the submitted form data contains more than one field with the same name, the
+object retrieved by ``form[key]`` is not a :class:`FieldStorage` or
+:class:`MiniFieldStorage` instance but a list of such instances. Similarly, in
+this situation, ``form.getvalue(key)`` would return a list of strings. If you
+expect this possibility (when your HTML form contains multiple fields with the
+same name), use the :func:`getlist` function, which always returns a list of
+values (so that you do not need to special-case the single item case). For
+example, this code concatenates any number of username fields, separated by
+commas::
+
+ value = form.getlist("username")
+ usernames = ",".join(value)
+
+If a field represents an uploaded file, accessing the value via the
+:attr:`value` attribute or the :func:`getvalue` method reads the entire file in
+memory as a string. This may not be what you want. You can test for an uploaded
+file by testing either the :attr:`filename` attribute or the :attr:`!file`
+attribute. You can then read the data at leisure from the :attr:`!file`
+attribute::
+
+ fileitem = form["userfile"]
+ if fileitem.file:
+ # It's an uploaded file; count lines
+ linecount = 0
+ while 1:
+ line = fileitem.file.readline()
+ if not line: break
+ linecount = linecount + 1
+
+If an error is encountered when obtaining the contents of an uploaded file
+(for example, when the user interrupts the form submission by clicking on
+a Back or Cancel button) the :attr:`done` attribute of the object for the
+field will be set to the value -1.
+
+The file upload draft standard entertains the possibility of uploading multiple
+files from one field (using a recursive :mimetype:`multipart/\*` encoding).
+When this occurs, the item will be a dictionary-like :class:`FieldStorage` item.
+This can be determined by testing its :attr:`!type` attribute, which should be
+:mimetype:`multipart/form-data` (or perhaps another MIME type matching
+:mimetype:`multipart/\*`). In this case, it can be iterated over recursively
+just like the top-level form object.
+
+When a form is submitted in the "old" format (as the query string or as a single
+data part of type :mimetype:`application/x-www-form-urlencoded`), the items will
+actually be instances of the class :class:`MiniFieldStorage`. In this case, the
+:attr:`!list`, :attr:`!file`, and :attr:`filename` attributes are always ``None``.
+
+A form submitted via POST that also has a query string will contain both
+:class:`FieldStorage` and :class:`MiniFieldStorage` items.
+
+Higher Level Interface
+----------------------
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+The previous section explains how to read CGI form data using the
+:class:`FieldStorage` class. This section describes a higher level interface
+which was added to this class to allow one to do it in a more readable and
+intuitive way. The interface doesn't make the techniques described in previous
+sections obsolete --- they are still useful to process file uploads efficiently,
+for example.
+
+.. XXX: Is this true ?
+
+The interface consists of two simple methods. Using the methods you can process
+form data in a generic way, without the need to worry whether only one or more
+values were posted under one name.
+
+In the previous section, you learned to write following code anytime you
+expected a user to post more than one value under one name::
+
+ item = form.getvalue("item")
+ if isinstance(item, list):
+ # The user is requesting more than one item.
+ else:
+ # The user is requesting only one item.
+
+This situation is common for example when a form contains a group of multiple
+checkboxes with the same name::
+
+ <input type="checkbox" name="item" value="1" />
+ <input type="checkbox" name="item" value="2" />
+
+In most situations, however, there's only one form control with a particular
+name in a form and then you expect and need only one value associated with this
+name. So you write a script containing for example this code::
+
+ user = form.getvalue("user").upper()
+
+The problem with the code is that you should never expect that a client will
+provide valid input to your scripts. For example, if a curious user appends
+another ``user=foo`` pair to the query string, then the script would crash,
+because in this situation the ``getvalue("user")`` method call returns a list
+instead of a string. Calling the :meth:`~str.upper` method on a list is not valid
+(since lists do not have a method of this name) and results in an
+:exc:`AttributeError` exception.
+
+Therefore, the appropriate way to read form data values was to always use the
+code which checks whether the obtained value is a single value or a list of
+values. That's annoying and leads to less readable scripts.
+
+A more convenient approach is to use the methods :meth:`getfirst` and
+:meth:`getlist` provided by this higher level interface.
+
+
+.. method:: FieldStorage.getfirst(name[, default])
+
+ This method always returns only one value associated with form field *name*.
+ The method returns only the first value in case that more values were posted
+ under such name. Please note that the order in which the values are received
+ may vary from browser to browser and should not be counted on. [#]_ If no such
+ form field or value exists then the method returns the value specified by the
+ optional parameter *default*. This parameter defaults to ``None`` if not
+ specified.
+
+
+.. method:: FieldStorage.getlist(name)
+
+ This method always returns a list of values associated with form field *name*.
+ The method returns an empty list if no such form field or value exists for
+ *name*. It returns a list consisting of one item if only one such value exists.
+
+Using these methods you can write nice compact code::
+
+ import cgi
+ form = cgi.FieldStorage()
+ user = form.getfirst("user", "").upper() # This way it's safe.
+ for item in form.getlist("item"):
+ do_something(item)
+
+
+Old classes
+-----------
+
+.. deprecated:: 2.6
+
+ These classes, present in earlier versions of the :mod:`cgi` module, are
+ still supported for backward compatibility. New applications should use the
+ :class:`FieldStorage` class.
+
+:class:`SvFormContentDict` stores single value form content as dictionary; it
+assumes each field name occurs in the form only once.
+
+:class:`FormContentDict` stores multiple value form content as a dictionary (the
+form items are lists of values). Useful if your form contains multiple fields
+with the same name.
+
+Other classes (:class:`FormContent`, :class:`InterpFormContentDict`) are present
+for backwards compatibility with really old applications only.
+
+
+.. _functions-in-cgi-module:
+
+Functions
+---------
+
+These are useful if you want more control, or if you want to employ some of the
+algorithms implemented in this module in other circumstances.
+
+
+.. function:: parse(fp[, environ[, keep_blank_values[, strict_parsing]]])
+
+ Parse a query in the environment or from a file (the file defaults to
+ ``sys.stdin`` and environment defaults to ``os.environ``). The *keep_blank_values* and *strict_parsing* parameters are
+ passed to :func:`urlparse.parse_qs` unchanged.
+
+
+.. function:: parse_qs(qs[, keep_blank_values[, strict_parsing]])
+
+ This function is deprecated in this module. Use :func:`urlparse.parse_qs`
+ instead. It is maintained here only for backward compatiblity.
+
+.. function:: parse_qsl(qs[, keep_blank_values[, strict_parsing]])
+
+ This function is deprecated in this module. Use :func:`urlparse.parse_qsl`
+ instead. It is maintained here only for backward compatiblity.
+
+.. function:: parse_multipart(fp, pdict)
+
+ Parse input of type :mimetype:`multipart/form-data` (for file uploads).
+ Arguments are *fp* for the input file and *pdict* for a dictionary containing
+ other parameters in the :mailheader:`Content-Type` header.
+
+ Returns a dictionary just like :func:`urlparse.parse_qs` keys are the field names, each
+ value is a list of values for that field. This is easy to use but not much good
+ if you are expecting megabytes to be uploaded --- in that case, use the
+ :class:`FieldStorage` class instead which is much more flexible.
+
+ Note that this does not parse nested multipart parts --- use
+ :class:`FieldStorage` for that.
+
+
+.. function:: parse_header(string)
+
+ Parse a MIME header (such as :mailheader:`Content-Type`) into a main value and a
+ dictionary of parameters.
+
+
+.. function:: test()
+
+ Robust test CGI script, usable as main program. Writes minimal HTTP headers and
+ formats all information provided to the script in HTML form.
+
+
+.. function:: print_environ()
+
+ Format the shell environment in HTML.
+
+
+.. function:: print_form(form)
+
+ Format a form in HTML.
+
+
+.. function:: print_directory()
+
+ Format the current directory in HTML.
+
+
+.. function:: print_environ_usage()
+
+ Print a list of useful (used by CGI) environment variables in HTML.
+
+
+.. function:: escape(s[, quote])
+
+ Convert the characters ``'&'``, ``'<'`` and ``'>'`` in string *s* to HTML-safe
+ sequences. Use this if you need to display text that might contain such
+ characters in HTML. If the optional flag *quote* is true, the quotation mark
+ character (``"``) is also translated; this helps for inclusion in an HTML
+ attribute value delimited by double quotes, as in ``<a href="...">``. Note
+ that single quotes are never translated.
+
+ If the value to be quoted might include single- or double-quote characters,
+ or both, consider using the :func:`~xml.sax.saxutils.quoteattr` function in the
+ :mod:`xml.sax.saxutils` module instead.
+
+
+.. _cgi-security:
+
+Caring about security
+---------------------
+
+.. index:: pair: CGI; security
+
+There's one important rule: if you invoke an external program (via the
+:func:`os.system` or :func:`os.popen` functions. or others with similar
+functionality), make very sure you don't pass arbitrary strings received from
+the client to the shell. This is a well-known security hole whereby clever
+hackers anywhere on the Web can exploit a gullible CGI script to invoke
+arbitrary shell commands. Even parts of the URL or field names cannot be
+trusted, since the request doesn't have to come from your form!
+
+To be on the safe side, if you must pass a string gotten from a form to a shell
+command, you should make sure the string contains only alphanumeric characters,
+dashes, underscores, and periods.
+
+
+Installing your CGI script on a Unix system
+-------------------------------------------
+
+Read the documentation for your HTTP server and check with your local system
+administrator to find the directory where CGI scripts should be installed;
+usually this is in a directory :file:`cgi-bin` in the server tree.
+
+Make sure that your script is readable and executable by "others"; the Unix file
+mode should be ``0755`` octal (use ``chmod 0755 filename``). Make sure that the
+first line of the script contains ``#!`` starting in column 1 followed by the
+pathname of the Python interpreter, for instance::
+
+ #!/usr/local/bin/python
+
+Make sure the Python interpreter exists and is executable by "others".
+
+Make sure that any files your script needs to read or write are readable or
+writable, respectively, by "others" --- their mode should be ``0644`` for
+readable and ``0666`` for writable. This is because, for security reasons, the
+HTTP server executes your script as user "nobody", without any special
+privileges. It can only read (write, execute) files that everybody can read
+(write, execute). The current directory at execution time is also different (it
+is usually the server's cgi-bin directory) and the set of environment variables
+is also different from what you get when you log in. In particular, don't count
+on the shell's search path for executables (:envvar:`PATH`) or the Python module
+search path (:envvar:`PYTHONPATH`) to be set to anything interesting.
+
+If you need to load modules from a directory which is not on Python's default
+module search path, you can change the path in your script, before importing
+other modules. For example::
+
+ import sys
+ sys.path.insert(0, "/usr/home/joe/lib/python")
+ sys.path.insert(0, "/usr/local/lib/python")
+
+(This way, the directory inserted last will be searched first!)
+
+Instructions for non-Unix systems will vary; check your HTTP server's
+documentation (it will usually have a section on CGI scripts).
+
+
+Testing your CGI script
+-----------------------
+
+Unfortunately, a CGI script will generally not run when you try it from the
+command line, and a script that works perfectly from the command line may fail
+mysteriously when run from the server. There's one reason why you should still
+test your script from the command line: if it contains a syntax error, the
+Python interpreter won't execute it at all, and the HTTP server will most likely
+send a cryptic error to the client.
+
+Assuming your script has no syntax errors, yet it does not work, you have no
+choice but to read the next section.
+
+
+Debugging CGI scripts
+---------------------
+
+.. index:: pair: CGI; debugging
+
+First of all, check for trivial installation errors --- reading the section
+above on installing your CGI script carefully can save you a lot of time. If
+you wonder whether you have understood the installation procedure correctly, try
+installing a copy of this module file (:file:`cgi.py`) as a CGI script. When
+invoked as a script, the file will dump its environment and the contents of the
+form in HTML form. Give it the right mode etc, and send it a request. If it's
+installed in the standard :file:`cgi-bin` directory, it should be possible to
+send it a request by entering a URL into your browser of the form::
+
+ http://yourhostname/cgi-bin/cgi.py?name=Joe+Blow&addr=At+Home
+
+If this gives an error of type 404, the server cannot find the script -- perhaps
+you need to install it in a different directory. If it gives another error,
+there's an installation problem that you should fix before trying to go any
+further. If you get a nicely formatted listing of the environment and form
+content (in this example, the fields should be listed as "addr" with value "At
+Home" and "name" with value "Joe Blow"), the :file:`cgi.py` script has been
+installed correctly. If you follow the same procedure for your own script, you
+should now be able to debug it.
+
+The next step could be to call the :mod:`cgi` module's :func:`test` function
+from your script: replace its main code with the single statement ::
+
+ cgi.test()
+
+This should produce the same results as those gotten from installing the
+:file:`cgi.py` file itself.
+
+When an ordinary Python script raises an unhandled exception (for whatever
+reason: of a typo in a module name, a file that can't be opened, etc.), the
+Python interpreter prints a nice traceback and exits. While the Python
+interpreter will still do this when your CGI script raises an exception, most
+likely the traceback will end up in one of the HTTP server's log files, or be
+discarded altogether.
+
+Fortunately, once you have managed to get your script to execute *some* code,
+you can easily send tracebacks to the Web browser using the :mod:`cgitb` module.
+If you haven't done so already, just add the lines::
+
+ import cgitb
+ cgitb.enable()
+
+to the top of your script. Then try running it again; when a problem occurs,
+you should see a detailed report that will likely make apparent the cause of the
+crash.
+
+If you suspect that there may be a problem in importing the :mod:`cgitb` module,
+you can use an even more robust approach (which only uses built-in modules)::
+
+ import sys
+ sys.stderr = sys.stdout
+ print "Content-Type: text/plain"
+ print
+ ...your code here...
+
+This relies on the Python interpreter to print the traceback. The content type
+of the output is set to plain text, which disables all HTML processing. If your
+script works, the raw HTML will be displayed by your client. If it raises an
+exception, most likely after the first two lines have been printed, a traceback
+will be displayed. Because no HTML interpretation is going on, the traceback
+will be readable.
+
+
+Common problems and solutions
+-----------------------------
+
+* Most HTTP servers buffer the output from CGI scripts until the script is
+ completed. This means that it is not possible to display a progress report on
+ the client's display while the script is running.
+
+* Check the installation instructions above.
+
+* Check the HTTP server's log files. (``tail -f logfile`` in a separate window
+ may be useful!)
+
+* Always check a script for syntax errors first, by doing something like
+ ``python script.py``.
+
+* If your script does not have any syntax errors, try adding ``import cgitb;
+ cgitb.enable()`` to the top of the script.
+
+* When invoking external programs, make sure they can be found. Usually, this
+ means using absolute path names --- :envvar:`PATH` is usually not set to a very
+ useful value in a CGI script.
+
+* When reading or writing external files, make sure they can be read or written
+ by the userid under which your CGI script will be running: this is typically the
+ userid under which the web server is running, or some explicitly specified
+ userid for a web server's ``suexec`` feature.
+
+* Don't try to give a CGI script a set-uid mode. This doesn't work on most
+ systems, and is a security liability as well.
+
+.. rubric:: Footnotes
+
+.. [#] Note that some recent versions of the HTML specification do state what order the
+ field values should be supplied in, but knowing whether a request was
+ received from a conforming browser, or even from a browser at all, is tedious
+ and error-prone.

+:mod:`CGIHTTPServer` --- CGI-capable HTTP request handler
+=========================================================
+
+.. module:: CGIHTTPServer
+ :synopsis: This module provides a request handler for HTTP servers which can run CGI
+ scripts.
+.. sectionauthor:: Moshe Zadka <[email protected]>
+
+.. note::
+ The :mod:`CGIHTTPServer` module has been merged into :mod:`http.server` in
+ Python 3. The :term:`2to3` tool will automatically adapt imports when
+ converting your sources to Python 3.
+
+
+The :mod:`CGIHTTPServer` module defines a request-handler class, interface
+compatible with :class:`BaseHTTPServer.BaseHTTPRequestHandler` and inherits
+behavior from :class:`SimpleHTTPServer.SimpleHTTPRequestHandler` but can also
+run CGI scripts.
+
+.. note::
+
+ This module can run CGI scripts on Unix and Windows systems.
+
+.. note::
+
+ CGI scripts run by the :class:`CGIHTTPRequestHandler` class cannot execute
+ redirects (HTTP code 302), because code 200 (script output follows) is sent
+ prior to execution of the CGI script. This pre-empts the status code.
+
+The :mod:`CGIHTTPServer` module defines the following class:
+
+
+.. class:: CGIHTTPRequestHandler(request, client_address, server)
+
+ This class is used to serve either files or output of CGI scripts from the
+ current directory and below. Note that mapping HTTP hierarchic structure to
+ local directory structure is exactly as in
+ :class:`SimpleHTTPServer.SimpleHTTPRequestHandler`.
+
+ The class will however, run the CGI script, instead of serving it as a file, if
+ it guesses it to be a CGI script. Only directory-based CGI are used --- the
+ other common server configuration is to treat special extensions as denoting CGI
+ scripts.
+
+ The :func:`do_GET` and :func:`do_HEAD` functions are modified to run CGI scripts
+ and serve the output, instead of serving files, if the request leads to
+ somewhere below the ``cgi_directories`` path.
+
+ The :class:`CGIHTTPRequestHandler` defines the following data member:
+
+
+ .. attribute:: cgi_directories
+
+ This defaults to ``['/cgi-bin', '/htbin']`` and describes directories to
+ treat as containing CGI scripts.
+
+ The :class:`CGIHTTPRequestHandler` defines the following methods:
+
+
+ .. method:: do_POST()
+
+ This method serves the ``'POST'`` request type, only allowed for CGI
+ scripts. Error 501, "Can only POST to CGI scripts", is output when trying
+ to POST to a non-CGI url.
+
+Note that CGI scripts will be run with UID of user nobody, for security reasons.
+Problems with the CGI script will be translated to error 403.
+
+For example usage, see the implementation of the :func:`test` function.

+ import cgitb
+ cgitb.enable()
+
+The options to the :func:`enable` function control whether the report is
+displayed in the browser and whether the report is logged to a file for later
+analysis.
+
+
+.. function:: enable([display[, logdir[, context[, format]]]])
+
+ .. index:: single: excepthook() (in module sys)
+
+ This function causes the :mod:`cgitb` module to take over the interpreter's
+ default handling for exceptions by setting the value of :attr:`sys.excepthook`.
+
+ The optional argument *display* defaults to ``1`` and can be set to ``0`` to
+ suppress sending the traceback to the browser. If the argument *logdir* is
+ present, the traceback reports are written to files. The value of *logdir*
+ should be a directory where these files will be placed. The optional argument
+ *context* is the number of lines of context to display around the current line
+ of source code in the traceback; this defaults to ``5``. If the optional
+ argument *format* is ``"html"``, the output is formatted as HTML. Any other
+ value forces plain text output. The default value is ``"html"``.
+
+
+.. function:: handler([info])
+
+ This function handles an exception using the default settings (that is, show a
+ report in the browser, but don't log to a file). This can be used when you've
+ caught an exception and want to report it using :mod:`cgitb`. The optional
+ *info* argument should be a 3-tuple containing an exception type, exception
+ value, and traceback object, exactly like the tuple returned by
+ :func:`sys.exc_info`. If the *info* argument is not supplied, the current
+ exception is obtained from :func:`sys.exc_info`.

+:mod:`chunk` --- Read IFF chunked data
+======================================
+
+.. module:: chunk
+ :synopsis: Module to read IFF chunks.
+.. moduleauthor:: Sjoerd Mullender <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Sjoerd Mullender <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. index::
+ single: Audio Interchange File Format
+ single: AIFF
+ single: AIFF-C
+ single: Real Media File Format
+ single: RMFF
+
+This module provides an interface for reading files that use EA IFF 85 chunks.
+[#]_ This format is used in at least the Audio Interchange File Format
+(AIFF/AIFF-C) and the Real Media File Format (RMFF). The WAVE audio file format
+is closely related and can also be read using this module.
+
+A chunk has the following structure:
+
++---------+--------+-------------------------------+
+| Offset | Length | Contents |
++=========+========+===============================+
+| 0 | 4 | Chunk ID |
++---------+--------+-------------------------------+
+| 4 | 4 | Size of chunk in big-endian |
+| | | byte order, not including the |
+| | | header |
++---------+--------+-------------------------------+
+| 8 | *n* | Data bytes, where *n* is the |
+| | | size given in the preceding |
+| | | field |
++---------+--------+-------------------------------+
+| 8 + *n* | 0 or 1 | Pad byte needed if *n* is odd |
+| | | and chunk alignment is used |
++---------+--------+-------------------------------+
+
+The ID is a 4-byte string which identifies the type of chunk.
+
+The size field (a 32-bit value, encoded using big-endian byte order) gives the
+size of the chunk data, not including the 8-byte header.
+
+Usually an IFF-type file consists of one or more chunks. The proposed usage of
+the :class:`Chunk` class defined here is to instantiate an instance at the start
+of each chunk and read from the instance until it reaches the end, after which a
+new instance can be instantiated. At the end of the file, creating a new
+instance will fail with a :exc:`EOFError` exception.
+
+
+.. class:: Chunk(file[, align, bigendian, inclheader])
+
+ Class which represents a chunk. The *file* argument is expected to be a
+ file-like object. An instance of this class is specifically allowed. The
+ only method that is needed is :meth:`read`. If the methods :meth:`seek` and
+ :meth:`tell` are present and don't raise an exception, they are also used.
+ If these methods are present and raise an exception, they are expected to not
+ have altered the object. If the optional argument *align* is true, chunks
+ are assumed to be aligned on 2-byte boundaries. If *align* is false, no
+ alignment is assumed. The default value is true. If the optional argument
+ *bigendian* is false, the chunk size is assumed to be in little-endian order.
+ This is needed for WAVE audio files. The default value is true. If the
+ optional argument *inclheader* is true, the size given in the chunk header
+ includes the size of the header. The default value is false.
+
+ A :class:`Chunk` object supports the following methods:
+
+
+ .. method:: getname()
+
+ Returns the name (ID) of the chunk. This is the first 4 bytes of the
+ chunk.
+
+
+ .. method:: getsize()
+
+ Returns the size of the chunk.
+
+
+ .. method:: close()
+
+ Close and skip to the end of the chunk. This does not close the
+ underlying file.
+
+ The remaining methods will raise :exc:`IOError` if called after the
+ :meth:`close` method has been called.
+
+
+ .. method:: isatty()
+
+ Returns ``False``.
+
+
+ .. method:: seek(pos[, whence])
+
+ Set the chunk's current position. The *whence* argument is optional and
+ defaults to ``0`` (absolute file positioning); other values are ``1``
+ (seek relative to the current position) and ``2`` (seek relative to the
+ file's end). There is no return value. If the underlying file does not
+ allow seek, only forward seeks are allowed.
+
+
+ .. method:: tell()
+
+ Return the current position into the chunk.
+
+
+ .. method:: read([size])
+
+ Read at most *size* bytes from the chunk (less if the read hits the end of
+ the chunk before obtaining *size* bytes). If the *size* argument is
+ negative or omitted, read all data until the end of the chunk. The bytes
+ are returned as a string object. An empty string is returned when the end
+ of the chunk is encountered immediately.
+
+
+ .. method:: skip()
+
+ Skip to the end of the chunk. All further calls to :meth:`read` for the
+ chunk will return ``''``. If you are not interested in the contents of
+ the chunk, this method should be called so that the file points to the
+ start of the next chunk.

+:mod:`cmath` --- Mathematical functions for complex numbers
+===========================================================
+
+.. module:: cmath
+ :synopsis: Mathematical functions for complex numbers.
+
+
+This module is always available. It provides access to mathematical functions
+for complex numbers. The functions in this module accept integers,
+floating-point numbers or complex numbers as arguments. They will also accept
+any Python object that has either a :meth:`__complex__` or a :meth:`__float__`
+method: these methods are used to convert the object to a complex or
+floating-point number, respectively, and the function is then applied to the
+result of the conversion.
+
+.. note::
+
+ On platforms with hardware and system-level support for signed
+ zeros, functions involving branch cuts are continuous on *both*
+ sides of the branch cut: the sign of the zero distinguishes one
+ side of the branch cut from the other. On platforms that do not
+ support signed zeros the continuity is as specified below.
+
+
+Conversions to and from polar coordinates
+-----------------------------------------
+
+A Python complex number ``z`` is stored internally using *rectangular*
+or *Cartesian* coordinates. It is completely determined by its *real
+part* ``z.real`` and its *imaginary part* ``z.imag``. In other
+words::
+
+ z == z.real + z.imag*1j
+
+*Polar coordinates* give an alternative way to represent a complex
+number. In polar coordinates, a complex number *z* is defined by the
+modulus *r* and the phase angle *phi*. The modulus *r* is the distance
+from *z* to the origin, while the phase *phi* is the counterclockwise
+angle, measured in radians, from the positive x-axis to the line
+segment that joins the origin to *z*.
+
+The following functions can be used to convert from the native
+rectangular coordinates to polar coordinates and back.
+
+.. function:: phase(x)
+
+ Return the phase of *x* (also known as the *argument* of *x*), as a
+ float. ``phase(x)`` is equivalent to ``math.atan2(x.imag,
+ x.real)``. The result lies in the range [-π, π], and the branch
+ cut for this operation lies along the negative real axis,
+ continuous from above. On systems with support for signed zeros
+ (which includes most systems in current use), this means that the
+ sign of the result is the same as the sign of ``x.imag``, even when
+ ``x.imag`` is zero::
+
+ >>> phase(complex(-1.0, 0.0))
+ 3.1415926535897931
+ >>> phase(complex(-1.0, -0.0))
+ -3.1415926535897931
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. note::
+
+ The modulus (absolute value) of a complex number *x* can be
+ computed using the built-in :func:`abs` function. There is no
+ separate :mod:`cmath` module function for this operation.
+
+
+.. function:: polar(x)
+
+ Return the representation of *x* in polar coordinates. Returns a
+ pair ``(r, phi)`` where *r* is the modulus of *x* and phi is the
+ phase of *x*. ``polar(x)`` is equivalent to ``(abs(x),
+ phase(x))``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: rect(r, phi)
+
+ Return the complex number *x* with polar coordinates *r* and *phi*.
+ Equivalent to ``r * (math.cos(phi) + math.sin(phi)*1j)``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+Power and logarithmic functions
+-------------------------------
+
+.. function:: exp(x)
+
+ Return the exponential value ``e**x``.
+
+
+.. function:: log(x[, base])
+
+ Returns the logarithm of *x* to the given *base*. If the *base* is not
+ specified, returns the natural logarithm of *x*. There is one branch cut, from 0
+ along the negative real axis to -∞, continuous from above.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ *base* argument added.
+
+
+.. function:: log10(x)
+
+ Return the base-10 logarithm of *x*. This has the same branch cut as
+ :func:`log`.
+
+
+.. function:: sqrt(x)
+
+ Return the square root of *x*. This has the same branch cut as :func:`log`.
+
+
+Trigonometric functions
+-----------------------
+
+.. function:: acos(x)
+
+ Return the arc cosine of *x*. There are two branch cuts: One extends right from
+ 1 along the real axis to ∞, continuous from below. The other extends left from
+ -1 along the real axis to -∞, continuous from above.
+
+
+.. function:: asin(x)
+
+ Return the arc sine of *x*. This has the same branch cuts as :func:`acos`.
+
+
+.. function:: atan(x)
+
+ Return the arc tangent of *x*. There are two branch cuts: One extends from
+ ``1j`` along the imaginary axis to ``∞j``, continuous from the right. The
+ other extends from ``-1j`` along the imaginary axis to ``-∞j``, continuous
+ from the left.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ direction of continuity of upper cut reversed
+
+
+.. function:: cos(x)
+
+ Return the cosine of *x*.
+
+
+.. function:: sin(x)
+
+ Return the sine of *x*.
+
+
+.. function:: tan(x)
+
+ Return the tangent of *x*.
+
+
+Hyperbolic functions
+--------------------
+
+.. function:: acosh(x)
+
+ Return the hyperbolic arc cosine of *x*. There is one branch cut, extending left
+ from 1 along the real axis to -∞, continuous from above.
+
+
+.. function:: asinh(x)
+
+ Return the hyperbolic arc sine of *x*. There are two branch cuts:
+ One extends from ``1j`` along the imaginary axis to ``∞j``,
+ continuous from the right. The other extends from ``-1j`` along
+ the imaginary axis to ``-∞j``, continuous from the left.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ branch cuts moved to match those recommended by the C99 standard
+
+
+.. function:: atanh(x)
+
+ Return the hyperbolic arc tangent of *x*. There are two branch cuts: One
+ extends from ``1`` along the real axis to ``∞``, continuous from below. The
+ other extends from ``-1`` along the real axis to ``-∞``, continuous from
+ above.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ direction of continuity of right cut reversed
+
+
+.. function:: cosh(x)
+
+ Return the hyperbolic cosine of *x*.
+
+
+.. function:: sinh(x)
+
+ Return the hyperbolic sine of *x*.
+
+
+.. function:: tanh(x)
+
+ Return the hyperbolic tangent of *x*.
+
+
+Classification functions
+------------------------
+
+.. function:: isinf(x)
+
+ Return *True* if the real or the imaginary part of x is positive
+ or negative infinity.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: isnan(x)
+
+ Return *True* if the real or imaginary part of x is not a number (NaN).
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+Constants
+---------
+
+
+.. data:: pi
+
+ The mathematical constant *π*, as a float.
+
+
+.. data:: e
+
+ The mathematical constant *e*, as a float.
+
+.. index:: module: math
+
+Note that the selection of functions is similar, but not identical, to that in
+module :mod:`math`. The reason for having two modules is that some users aren't
+interested in complex numbers, and perhaps don't even know what they are. They
+would rather have ``math.sqrt(-1)`` raise an exception than return a complex
+number. Also note that the functions defined in :mod:`cmath` always return a
+complex number, even if the answer can be expressed as a real number (in which
+case the complex number has an imaginary part of zero).
+
+A note on branch cuts: They are curves along which the given function fails to
+be continuous. They are a necessary feature of many complex functions. It is
+assumed that if you need to compute with complex functions, you will understand
+about branch cuts. Consult almost any (not too elementary) book on complex
+variables for enlightenment. For information of the proper choice of branch
+cuts for numerical purposes, a good reference should be the following:

+:mod:`cmd` --- Support for line-oriented command interpreters
+=============================================================
+
+.. module:: cmd
+ :synopsis: Build line-oriented command interpreters.
+.. sectionauthor:: Eric S. Raymond <[email protected]>
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/cmd.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :class:`Cmd` class provides a simple framework for writing line-oriented
+command interpreters. These are often useful for test harnesses, administrative
+tools, and prototypes that will later be wrapped in a more sophisticated
+interface.
+
+.. class:: Cmd([completekey[, stdin[, stdout]]])
+
+ A :class:`Cmd` instance or subclass instance is a line-oriented interpreter
+ framework. There is no good reason to instantiate :class:`Cmd` itself; rather,
+ it's useful as a superclass of an interpreter class you define yourself in order
+ to inherit :class:`Cmd`'s methods and encapsulate action methods.
+
+ The optional argument *completekey* is the :mod:`readline` name of a completion
+ key; it defaults to :kbd:`Tab`. If *completekey* is not :const:`None` and
+ :mod:`readline` is available, command completion is done automatically.
+
+ The optional arguments *stdin* and *stdout* specify the input and output file
+ objects that the Cmd instance or subclass instance will use for input and
+ output. If not specified, they will default to :data:`sys.stdin` and
+ :data:`sys.stdout`.
+
+ If you want a given *stdin* to be used, make sure to set the instance's
+ :attr:`use_rawinput` attribute to ``False``, otherwise *stdin* will be
+ ignored.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ The *stdin* and *stdout* parameters were added.
+
+
+.. _cmd-objects:
+
+Cmd Objects
+-----------
+
+A :class:`Cmd` instance has the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: Cmd.cmdloop([intro])
+
+ Repeatedly issue a prompt, accept input, parse an initial prefix off the
+ received input, and dispatch to action methods, passing them the remainder of
+ the line as argument.
+
+ The optional argument is a banner or intro string to be issued before the first
+ prompt (this overrides the :attr:`intro` class attribute).
+
+ If the :mod:`readline` module is loaded, input will automatically inherit
+ :program:`bash`\ -like history-list editing (e.g. :kbd:`Control-P` scrolls back
+ to the last command, :kbd:`Control-N` forward to the next one, :kbd:`Control-F`
+ moves the cursor to the right non-destructively, :kbd:`Control-B` moves the
+ cursor to the left non-destructively, etc.).
+
+ An end-of-file on input is passed back as the string ``'EOF'``.
+
+ An interpreter instance will recognize a command name ``foo`` if and only if it
+ has a method :meth:`do_foo`. As a special case, a line beginning with the
+ character ``'?'`` is dispatched to the method :meth:`do_help`. As another
+ special case, a line beginning with the character ``'!'`` is dispatched to the
+ method :meth:`do_shell` (if such a method is defined).
+
+ This method will return when the :meth:`postcmd` method returns a true value.
+ The *stop* argument to :meth:`postcmd` is the return value from the command's
+ corresponding :meth:`do_\*` method.
+
+ If completion is enabled, completing commands will be done automatically, and
+ completing of commands args is done by calling :meth:`complete_foo` with
+ arguments *text*, *line*, *begidx*, and *endidx*. *text* is the string prefix
+ we are attempting to match: all returned matches must begin with it. *line* is
+ the current input line with leading whitespace removed, *begidx* and *endidx*
+ are the beginning and ending indexes of the prefix text, which could be used to
+ provide different completion depending upon which position the argument is in.
+
+ All subclasses of :class:`Cmd` inherit a predefined :meth:`do_help`. This
+ method, called with an argument ``'bar'``, invokes the corresponding method
+ :meth:`help_bar`, and if that is not present, prints the docstring of
+ :meth:`do_bar`, if available. With no argument, :meth:`do_help` lists all
+ available help topics (that is, all commands with corresponding
+ :meth:`help_\*` methods or commands that have docstrings), and also lists any
+ undocumented commands.
+
+
+.. method:: Cmd.onecmd(str)
+
+ Interpret the argument as though it had been typed in response to the prompt.
+ This may be overridden, but should not normally need to be; see the
+ :meth:`precmd` and :meth:`postcmd` methods for useful execution hooks. The
+ return value is a flag indicating whether interpretation of commands by the
+ interpreter should stop. If there is a :meth:`do_\*` method for the command
+ *str*, the return value of that method is returned, otherwise the return value
+ from the :meth:`default` method is returned.
+
+
+.. method:: Cmd.emptyline()
+
+ Method called when an empty line is entered in response to the prompt. If this
+ method is not overridden, it repeats the last nonempty command entered.
+
+
+.. method:: Cmd.default(line)
+
+ Method called on an input line when the command prefix is not recognized. If
+ this method is not overridden, it prints an error message and returns.
+
+
+.. method:: Cmd.completedefault(text, line, begidx, endidx)
+
+ Method called to complete an input line when no command-specific
+ :meth:`complete_\*` method is available. By default, it returns an empty list.
+
+
+.. method:: Cmd.precmd(line)
+
+ Hook method executed just before the command line *line* is interpreted, but
+ after the input prompt is generated and issued. This method is a stub in
+ :class:`Cmd`; it exists to be overridden by subclasses. The return value is
+ used as the command which will be executed by the :meth:`onecmd` method; the
+ :meth:`precmd` implementation may re-write the command or simply return *line*
+ unchanged.
+
+
+.. method:: Cmd.postcmd(stop, line)
+
+ Hook method executed just after a command dispatch is finished. This method is
+ a stub in :class:`Cmd`; it exists to be overridden by subclasses. *line* is the
+ command line which was executed, and *stop* is a flag which indicates whether
+ execution will be terminated after the call to :meth:`postcmd`; this will be the
+ return value of the :meth:`onecmd` method. The return value of this method will
+ be used as the new value for the internal flag which corresponds to *stop*;
+ returning false will cause interpretation to continue.
+
+
+.. method:: Cmd.preloop()
+
+ Hook method executed once when :meth:`cmdloop` is called. This method is a stub
+ in :class:`Cmd`; it exists to be overridden by subclasses.
+
+
+.. method:: Cmd.postloop()
+
+ Hook method executed once when :meth:`cmdloop` is about to return. This method
+ is a stub in :class:`Cmd`; it exists to be overridden by subclasses.
+
+Instances of :class:`Cmd` subclasses have some public instance variables:
+
+
+.. attribute:: Cmd.prompt
+
+ The prompt issued to solicit input.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Cmd.identchars
+
+ The string of characters accepted for the command prefix.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Cmd.lastcmd
+
+ The last nonempty command prefix seen.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Cmd.intro
+
+ A string to issue as an intro or banner. May be overridden by giving the
+ :meth:`cmdloop` method an argument.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Cmd.doc_header
+
+ The header to issue if the help output has a section for documented commands.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Cmd.misc_header
+
+ The header to issue if the help output has a section for miscellaneous help
+ topics (that is, there are :meth:`help_\*` methods without corresponding
+ :meth:`do_\*` methods).
+
+
+.. attribute:: Cmd.undoc_header
+
+ The header to issue if the help output has a section for undocumented commands
+ (that is, there are :meth:`do_\*` methods without corresponding :meth:`help_\*`
+ methods).
+
+
+.. attribute:: Cmd.ruler
+
+ The character used to draw separator lines under the help-message headers. If
+ empty, no ruler line is drawn. It defaults to ``'='``.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Cmd.use_rawinput
+
+ A flag, defaulting to true. If true, :meth:`cmdloop` uses :func:`raw_input` to
+ display a prompt and read the next command; if false, :meth:`sys.stdout.write`
+ and :meth:`sys.stdin.readline` are used. (This means that by importing
+ :mod:`readline`, on systems that support it, the interpreter will automatically
+ support :program:`Emacs`\ -like line editing and command-history keystrokes.)

+:mod:`code` --- Interpreter base classes
+========================================
+
+.. module:: code
+ :synopsis: Facilities to implement read-eval-print loops.
+
+
+
+The ``code`` module provides facilities to implement read-eval-print loops in
+Python. Two classes and convenience functions are included which can be used to
+build applications which provide an interactive interpreter prompt.
+
+
+.. class:: InteractiveInterpreter([locals])
+
+ This class deals with parsing and interpreter state (the user's namespace); it
+ does not deal with input buffering or prompting or input file naming (the
+ filename is always passed in explicitly). The optional *locals* argument
+ specifies the dictionary in which code will be executed; it defaults to a newly
+ created dictionary with key ``'__name__'`` set to ``'__console__'`` and key
+ ``'__doc__'`` set to ``None``.
+
+
+.. class:: InteractiveConsole([locals[, filename]])
+
+ Closely emulate the behavior of the interactive Python interpreter. This class
+ builds on :class:`InteractiveInterpreter` and adds prompting using the familiar
+ ``sys.ps1`` and ``sys.ps2``, and input buffering.
+
+
+.. function:: interact([banner[, readfunc[, local]]])
+
+ Convenience function to run a read-eval-print loop. This creates a new instance
+ of :class:`InteractiveConsole` and sets *readfunc* to be used as the
+ :meth:`raw_input` method, if provided. If *local* is provided, it is passed to
+ the :class:`InteractiveConsole` constructor for use as the default namespace for
+ the interpreter loop. The :meth:`interact` method of the instance is then run
+ with *banner* passed as the banner to use, if provided. The console object is
+ discarded after use.
+
+
+.. function:: compile_command(source[, filename[, symbol]])
+
+ This function is useful for programs that want to emulate Python's interpreter
+ main loop (a.k.a. the read-eval-print loop). The tricky part is to determine
+ when the user has entered an incomplete command that can be completed by
+ entering more text (as opposed to a complete command or a syntax error). This
+ function *almost* always makes the same decision as the real interpreter main
+ loop.
+
+ *source* is the source string; *filename* is the optional filename from which
+ source was read, defaulting to ``'<input>'``; and *symbol* is the optional
+ grammar start symbol, which should be either ``'single'`` (the default) or
+ ``'eval'``.
+
+ Returns a code object (the same as ``compile(source, filename, symbol)``) if the
+ command is complete and valid; ``None`` if the command is incomplete; raises
+ :exc:`SyntaxError` if the command is complete and contains a syntax error, or
+ raises :exc:`OverflowError` or :exc:`ValueError` if the command contains an
+ invalid literal.
+
+

+
+ Compile and run some source in the interpreter. Arguments are the same as for
+ :func:`compile_command`; the default for *filename* is ``'<input>'``, and for
+ *symbol* is ``'single'``. One several things can happen:
+
+ * The input is incorrect; :func:`compile_command` raised an exception
+ (:exc:`SyntaxError` or :exc:`OverflowError`). A syntax traceback will be
+ printed by calling the :meth:`showsyntaxerror` method. :meth:`runsource`
+ returns ``False``.
+
+ * The input is incomplete, and more input is required; :func:`compile_command`
+ returned ``None``. :meth:`runsource` returns ``True``.
+
+ * The input is complete; :func:`compile_command` returned a code object. The
+ code is executed by calling the :meth:`runcode` (which also handles run-time
+ exceptions, except for :exc:`SystemExit`). :meth:`runsource` returns ``False``.
+
+ The return value can be used to decide whether to use ``sys.ps1`` or ``sys.ps2``
+ to prompt the next line.
+
+
+.. method:: InteractiveInterpreter.runcode(code)
+
+ Execute a code object. When an exception occurs, :meth:`showtraceback` is called
+ to display a traceback. All exceptions are caught except :exc:`SystemExit`,
+ which is allowed to propagate.
+
+ A note about :exc:`KeyboardInterrupt`: this exception may occur elsewhere in
+ this code, and may not always be caught. The caller should be prepared to deal
+ with it.
+
+
+.. method:: InteractiveInterpreter.showsyntaxerror([filename])
+
+ Display the syntax error that just occurred. This does not display a stack
+ trace because there isn't one for syntax errors. If *filename* is given, it is
+ stuffed into the exception instead of the default filename provided by Python's
+ parser, because it always uses ``'<string>'`` when reading from a string. The
+ output is written by the :meth:`write` method.
+
+
+.. method:: InteractiveInterpreter.showtraceback()
+
+ Display the exception that just occurred. We remove the first stack item
+ because it is within the interpreter object implementation. The output is
+ written by the :meth:`write` method.
+
+
+.. method:: InteractiveInterpreter.write(data)
+
+ Write a string to the standard error stream (``sys.stderr``). Derived classes
+ should override this to provide the appropriate output handling as needed.
+
+
+.. _console-objects:
+
+Interactive Console Objects
+---------------------------
+
+The :class:`InteractiveConsole` class is a subclass of
+:class:`InteractiveInterpreter`, and so offers all the methods of the
+interpreter objects as well as the following additions.
+
+
+.. method:: InteractiveConsole.interact([banner])
+
+ Closely emulate the interactive Python console. The optional banner argument
+ specify the banner to print before the first interaction; by default it prints a
+ banner similar to the one printed by the standard Python interpreter, followed
+ by the class name of the console object in parentheses (so as not to confuse
+ this with the real interpreter -- since it's so close!).
+
+
+.. method:: InteractiveConsole.push(line)
+
+ Push a line of source text to the interpreter. The line should not have a
+ trailing newline; it may have internal newlines. The line is appended to a
+ buffer and the interpreter's :meth:`runsource` method is called with the
+ concatenated contents of the buffer as source. If this indicates that the
+ command was executed or invalid, the buffer is reset; otherwise, the command is
+ incomplete, and the buffer is left as it was after the line was appended. The
+ return value is ``True`` if more input is required, ``False`` if the line was
+ dealt with in some way (this is the same as :meth:`runsource`).
+
+
+.. method:: InteractiveConsole.resetbuffer()
+
+ Remove any unhandled source text from the input buffer.
+
+
+.. method:: InteractiveConsole.raw_input([prompt])
+
+ Write a prompt and read a line. The returned line does not include the trailing
+ newline. When the user enters the EOF key sequence, :exc:`EOFError` is raised.
+ The base implementation uses the built-in function :func:`raw_input`; a subclass
+ may replace this with a different implementation.

+ pair: stackable; streams
+
+This module defines base classes for standard Python codecs (encoders and
+decoders) and provides access to the internal Python codec registry which
+manages the codec and error handling lookup process.
+
+It defines the following functions:
+
+
+.. function:: register(search_function)
+
+ Register a codec search function. Search functions are expected to take one
+ argument, the encoding name in all lower case letters, and return a
+ :class:`CodecInfo` object having the following attributes:
+
+ * ``name`` The name of the encoding;
+
+ * ``encode`` The stateless encoding function;
+
+ * ``decode`` The stateless decoding function;
+
+ * ``incrementalencoder`` An incremental encoder class or factory function;
+
+ * ``incrementaldecoder`` An incremental decoder class or factory function;
+
+ * ``streamwriter`` A stream writer class or factory function;
+
+ * ``streamreader`` A stream reader class or factory function.
+
+ The various functions or classes take the following arguments:
+
+ *encode* and *decode*: These must be functions or methods which have the same
+ interface as the :meth:`encode`/:meth:`decode` methods of Codec instances (see
+ Codec Interface). The functions/methods are expected to work in a stateless
+ mode.
+
+ *incrementalencoder* and *incrementaldecoder*: These have to be factory
+ functions providing the following interface:
+
+ ``factory(errors='strict')``
+
+ The factory functions must return objects providing the interfaces defined by
+ the base classes :class:`IncrementalEncoder` and :class:`IncrementalDecoder`,
+ respectively. Incremental codecs can maintain state.
+
+ *streamreader* and *streamwriter*: These have to be factory functions providing
+ the following interface:
+
+ ``factory(stream, errors='strict')``
+
+ The factory functions must return objects providing the interfaces defined by
+ the base classes :class:`StreamWriter` and :class:`StreamReader`, respectively.
+ Stream codecs can maintain state.
+
+ Possible values for errors are
+
+ * ``'strict'``: raise an exception in case of an encoding error
+ * ``'replace'``: replace malformed data with a suitable replacement marker,
+ such as ``'?'`` or ``'\ufffd'``
+ * ``'ignore'``: ignore malformed data and continue without further notice
+ * ``'xmlcharrefreplace'``: replace with the appropriate XML character
+ reference (for encoding only)
+ * ``'backslashreplace'``: replace with backslashed escape sequences (for
+ encoding only)
+
+ as well as any other error handling name defined via :func:`register_error`.
+
+ In case a search function cannot find a given encoding, it should return
+ ``None``.
+
+
+.. function:: lookup(encoding)
+
+ Looks up the codec info in the Python codec registry and returns a
+ :class:`CodecInfo` object as defined above.
+
+ Encodings are first looked up in the registry's cache. If not found, the list of
+ registered search functions is scanned. If no :class:`CodecInfo` object is
+ found, a :exc:`LookupError` is raised. Otherwise, the :class:`CodecInfo` object
+ is stored in the cache and returned to the caller.
+
+To simplify access to the various codecs, the module provides these additional
+functions which use :func:`lookup` for the codec lookup:
+
+
+.. function:: getencoder(encoding)
+
+ Look up the codec for the given encoding and return its encoder function.
+
+ Raises a :exc:`LookupError` in case the encoding cannot be found.
+
+
+.. function:: getdecoder(encoding)
+
+ Look up the codec for the given encoding and return its decoder function.
+
+ Raises a :exc:`LookupError` in case the encoding cannot be found.
+
+
+.. function:: getincrementalencoder(encoding)
+
+ Look up the codec for the given encoding and return its incremental encoder
+ class or factory function.
+
+ Raises a :exc:`LookupError` in case the encoding cannot be found or the codec
+ doesn't support an incremental encoder.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. function:: getincrementaldecoder(encoding)
+
+ Look up the codec for the given encoding and return its incremental decoder
+ class or factory function.
+
+ Raises a :exc:`LookupError` in case the encoding cannot be found or the codec
+ doesn't support an incremental decoder.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. function:: getreader(encoding)
+
+ Look up the codec for the given encoding and return its StreamReader class or
+ factory function.
+
+ Raises a :exc:`LookupError` in case the encoding cannot be found.
+
+
+.. function:: getwriter(encoding)
+
+ Look up the codec for the given encoding and return its StreamWriter class or
+ factory function.
+
+ Raises a :exc:`LookupError` in case the encoding cannot be found.
+
+
+.. function:: register_error(name, error_handler)
+
+ Register the error handling function *error_handler* under the name *name*.
+ *error_handler* will be called during encoding and decoding in case of an error,
+ when *name* is specified as the errors parameter.
+
+ For encoding *error_handler* will be called with a :exc:`UnicodeEncodeError`
+ instance, which contains information about the location of the error. The error
+ handler must either raise this or a different exception or return a tuple with a
+ replacement for the unencodable part of the input and a position where encoding
+ should continue. The encoder will encode the replacement and continue encoding
+ the original input at the specified position. Negative position values will be
+ treated as being relative to the end of the input string. If the resulting
+ position is out of bound an :exc:`IndexError` will be raised.
+
+ Decoding and translating works similar, except :exc:`UnicodeDecodeError` or
+ :exc:`UnicodeTranslateError` will be passed to the handler and that the
+ replacement from the error handler will be put into the output directly.
+
+
+.. function:: lookup_error(name)
+
+ Return the error handler previously registered under the name *name*.
+
+ Raises a :exc:`LookupError` in case the handler cannot be found.
+
+
+.. function:: strict_errors(exception)
+
+ Implements the ``strict`` error handling: each encoding or decoding error
+ raises a :exc:`UnicodeError`.
+
+
+.. function:: replace_errors(exception)
+
+ Implements the ``replace`` error handling: malformed data is replaced with a
+ suitable replacement character such as ``'?'`` in bytestrings and
+ ``'\ufffd'`` in Unicode strings.
+
+
+.. function:: ignore_errors(exception)
+
+ Implements the ``ignore`` error handling: malformed data is ignored and
+ encoding or decoding is continued without further notice.
+
+
+.. function:: xmlcharrefreplace_errors(exception)
+
+ Implements the ``xmlcharrefreplace`` error handling (for encoding only): the
+ unencodable character is replaced by an appropriate XML character reference.
+
+
+.. function:: backslashreplace_errors(exception)
+
+ Implements the ``backslashreplace`` error handling (for encoding only): the
+ unencodable character is replaced by a backslashed escape sequence.
+
+To simplify working with encoded files or stream, the module also defines these
+utility functions:
+
+
+.. function:: open(filename, mode[, encoding[, errors[, buffering]]])
+
+ Open an encoded file using the given *mode* and return a wrapped version
+ providing transparent encoding/decoding. The default file mode is ``'r'``
+ meaning to open the file in read mode.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ The wrapped version will only accept the object format defined by the codecs,
+ i.e. Unicode objects for most built-in codecs. Output is also codec-dependent
+ and will usually be Unicode as well.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Files are always opened in binary mode, even if no binary mode was
+ specified. This is done to avoid data loss due to encodings using 8-bit
+ values. This means that no automatic conversion of ``'\n'`` is done
+ on reading and writing.
+
+ *encoding* specifies the encoding which is to be used for the file.
+
+ *errors* may be given to define the error handling. It defaults to ``'strict'``
+ which causes a :exc:`ValueError` to be raised in case an encoding error occurs.
+
+ *buffering* has the same meaning as for the built-in :func:`open` function. It
+ defaults to line buffered.
+
+
+.. function:: EncodedFile(file, input[, output[, errors]])
+
+ Return a wrapped version of file which provides transparent encoding
+ translation.
+
+ Strings written to the wrapped file are interpreted according to the given
+ *input* encoding and then written to the original file as strings using the
+ *output* encoding. The intermediate encoding will usually be Unicode but depends
+ on the specified codecs.
+
+ If *output* is not given, it defaults to *input*.
+
+ *errors* may be given to define the error handling. It defaults to ``'strict'``,
+ which causes :exc:`ValueError` to be raised in case an encoding error occurs.
+
+
+.. function:: iterencode(iterable, encoding[, errors])
+
+ Uses an incremental encoder to iteratively encode the input provided by
+ *iterable*. This function is a :term:`generator`. *errors* (as well as any
+ other keyword argument) is passed through to the incremental encoder.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. function:: iterdecode(iterable, encoding[, errors])
+
+ Uses an incremental decoder to iteratively decode the input provided by
+ *iterable*. This function is a :term:`generator`. *errors* (as well as any
+ other keyword argument) is passed through to the incremental decoder.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+The module also provides the following constants which are useful for reading
+and writing to platform dependent files:
+
+
+.. data:: BOM
+ BOM_BE
+ BOM_LE
+ BOM_UTF8
+ BOM_UTF16
+ BOM_UTF16_BE
+ BOM_UTF16_LE
+ BOM_UTF32
+ BOM_UTF32_BE
+ BOM_UTF32_LE
+
+ These constants define various encodings of the Unicode byte order mark (BOM)
+ used in UTF-16 and UTF-32 data streams to indicate the byte order used in the
+ stream or file and in UTF-8 as a Unicode signature. :const:`BOM_UTF16` is either
+ :const:`BOM_UTF16_BE` or :const:`BOM_UTF16_LE` depending on the platform's
+ native byte order, :const:`BOM` is an alias for :const:`BOM_UTF16`,
+ :const:`BOM_LE` for :const:`BOM_UTF16_LE` and :const:`BOM_BE` for
+ :const:`BOM_UTF16_BE`. The others represent the BOM in UTF-8 and UTF-32
+ encodings.
+
+
+.. _codec-base-classes:
+
+Codec Base Classes
+------------------
+
+The :mod:`codecs` module defines a set of base classes which define the
+interface and can also be used to easily write your own codecs for use in
+Python.
+
+Each codec has to define four interfaces to make it usable as codec in Python:
+stateless encoder, stateless decoder, stream reader and stream writer. The
+stream reader and writers typically reuse the stateless encoder/decoder to
+implement the file protocols.
+
+The :class:`Codec` class defines the interface for stateless encoders/decoders.
+
+To simplify and standardize error handling, the :meth:`encode` and
+:meth:`decode` methods may implement different error handling schemes by
+providing the *errors* string argument. The following string values are defined
+and implemented by all standard Python codecs:
+
+.. tabularcolumns:: |l|L|
+
++-------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| Value | Meaning |
++=========================+===============================================+
+| ``'strict'`` | Raise :exc:`UnicodeError` (or a subclass); |
+| | this is the default. |
++-------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| ``'ignore'`` | Ignore the character and continue with the |
+| | next. |
++-------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| ``'replace'`` | Replace with a suitable replacement |
+| | character; Python will use the official |
+| | U+FFFD REPLACEMENT CHARACTER for the built-in |
+| | Unicode codecs on decoding and '?' on |
+| | encoding. |
++-------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| ``'xmlcharrefreplace'`` | Replace with the appropriate XML character |
+| | reference (only for encoding). |
++-------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| ``'backslashreplace'`` | Replace with backslashed escape sequences |
+| | (only for encoding). |
++-------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
+
+The set of allowed values can be extended via :meth:`register_error`.
+
+
+.. _codec-objects:
+
+Codec Objects
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The :class:`Codec` class defines these methods which also define the function
+interfaces of the stateless encoder and decoder:
+
+
+.. method:: Codec.encode(input[, errors])
+
+ Encodes the object *input* and returns a tuple (output object, length consumed).
+ While codecs are not restricted to use with Unicode, in a Unicode context,
+ encoding converts a Unicode object to a plain string using a particular
+ character set encoding (e.g., ``cp1252`` or ``iso-8859-1``).
+
+ *errors* defines the error handling to apply. It defaults to ``'strict'``
+ handling.
+
+ The method may not store state in the :class:`Codec` instance. Use
+ :class:`StreamCodec` for codecs which have to keep state in order to make
+ encoding/decoding efficient.
+
+ The encoder must be able to handle zero length input and return an empty object
+ of the output object type in this situation.
+
+
+.. method:: Codec.decode(input[, errors])
+
+ Decodes the object *input* and returns a tuple (output object, length consumed).
+ In a Unicode context, decoding converts a plain string encoded using a
+ particular character set encoding to a Unicode object.
+
+ *input* must be an object which provides the ``bf_getreadbuf`` buffer slot.
+ Python strings, buffer objects and memory mapped files are examples of objects
+ providing this slot.
+
+ *errors* defines the error handling to apply. It defaults to ``'strict'``
+ handling.
+
+ The method may not store state in the :class:`Codec` instance. Use
+ :class:`StreamCodec` for codecs which have to keep state in order to make
+ encoding/decoding efficient.
+
+ The decoder must be able to handle zero length input and return an empty object
+ of the output object type in this situation.
+
+The :class:`IncrementalEncoder` and :class:`IncrementalDecoder` classes provide
+the basic interface for incremental encoding and decoding. Encoding/decoding the
+input isn't done with one call to the stateless encoder/decoder function, but
+with multiple calls to the :meth:`encode`/:meth:`decode` method of the
+incremental encoder/decoder. The incremental encoder/decoder keeps track of the
+encoding/decoding process during method calls.
+
+The joined output of calls to the :meth:`encode`/:meth:`decode` method is the
+same as if all the single inputs were joined into one, and this input was
+encoded/decoded with the stateless encoder/decoder.
+
+
+.. _incremental-encoder-objects:
+
+IncrementalEncoder Objects
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+The :class:`IncrementalEncoder` class is used for encoding an input in multiple
+steps. It defines the following methods which every incremental encoder must
+define in order to be compatible with the Python codec registry.
+
+
+.. class:: IncrementalEncoder([errors])
+
+ Constructor for an :class:`IncrementalEncoder` instance.
+
+ All incremental encoders must provide this constructor interface. They are free
+ to add additional keyword arguments, but only the ones defined here are used by
+ the Python codec registry.
+
+ The :class:`IncrementalEncoder` may implement different error handling schemes
+ by providing the *errors* keyword argument. These parameters are predefined:
+
+ * ``'strict'`` Raise :exc:`ValueError` (or a subclass); this is the default.
+
+ * ``'ignore'`` Ignore the character and continue with the next.
+
+ * ``'replace'`` Replace with a suitable replacement character
+
+ * ``'xmlcharrefreplace'`` Replace with the appropriate XML character reference
+
+ * ``'backslashreplace'`` Replace with backslashed escape sequences.
+
+ The *errors* argument will be assigned to an attribute of the same name.
+ Assigning to this attribute makes it possible to switch between different error
+ handling strategies during the lifetime of the :class:`IncrementalEncoder`
+ object.
+
+ The set of allowed values for the *errors* argument can be extended with
+ :func:`register_error`.
+
+
+ .. method:: encode(object[, final])
+
+ Encodes *object* (taking the current state of the encoder into account)
+ and returns the resulting encoded object. If this is the last call to
+ :meth:`encode` *final* must be true (the default is false).
+
+
+ .. method:: reset()
+
+ Reset the encoder to the initial state.
+
+
+.. _incremental-decoder-objects:
+
+IncrementalDecoder Objects
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The :class:`IncrementalDecoder` class is used for decoding an input in multiple
+steps. It defines the following methods which every incremental decoder must
+define in order to be compatible with the Python codec registry.
+
+
+.. class:: IncrementalDecoder([errors])
+
+ Constructor for an :class:`IncrementalDecoder` instance.
+
+ All incremental decoders must provide this constructor interface. They are free
+ to add additional keyword arguments, but only the ones defined here are used by
+ the Python codec registry.
+
+ The :class:`IncrementalDecoder` may implement different error handling schemes
+ by providing the *errors* keyword argument. These parameters are predefined:
+
+ * ``'strict'`` Raise :exc:`ValueError` (or a subclass); this is the default.
+
+ * ``'ignore'`` Ignore the character and continue with the next.
+
+ * ``'replace'`` Replace with a suitable replacement character.
+
+ The *errors* argument will be assigned to an attribute of the same name.
+ Assigning to this attribute makes it possible to switch between different error
+ handling strategies during the lifetime of the :class:`IncrementalDecoder`
+ object.
+
+ The set of allowed values for the *errors* argument can be extended with
+ :func:`register_error`.
+
+
+ .. method:: decode(object[, final])
+
+ Decodes *object* (taking the current state of the decoder into account)
+ and returns the resulting decoded object. If this is the last call to
+ :meth:`decode` *final* must be true (the default is false). If *final* is
+ true the decoder must decode the input completely and must flush all
+ buffers. If this isn't possible (e.g. because of incomplete byte sequences
+ at the end of the input) it must initiate error handling just like in the
+ stateless case (which might raise an exception).
+
+
+ .. method:: reset()
+
+ Reset the decoder to the initial state.
+
+
+The :class:`StreamWriter` and :class:`StreamReader` classes provide generic
+working interfaces which can be used to implement new encoding submodules very
+easily. See :mod:`encodings.utf_8` for an example of how this is done.
+
+
+.. _stream-writer-objects:
+
+StreamWriter Objects
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The :class:`StreamWriter` class is a subclass of :class:`Codec` and defines the
+following methods which every stream writer must define in order to be
+compatible with the Python codec registry.
+
+
+.. class:: StreamWriter(stream[, errors])
+
+ Constructor for a :class:`StreamWriter` instance.
+
+ All stream writers must provide this constructor interface. They are free to add
+ additional keyword arguments, but only the ones defined here are used by the
+ Python codec registry.
+
+ *stream* must be a file-like object open for writing binary data.
+
+ The :class:`StreamWriter` may implement different error handling schemes by
+ providing the *errors* keyword argument. These parameters are predefined:
+
+ * ``'strict'`` Raise :exc:`ValueError` (or a subclass); this is the default.
+
+ * ``'ignore'`` Ignore the character and continue with the next.
+
+ * ``'replace'`` Replace with a suitable replacement character
+
+ * ``'xmlcharrefreplace'`` Replace with the appropriate XML character reference
+
+ * ``'backslashreplace'`` Replace with backslashed escape sequences.
+
+ The *errors* argument will be assigned to an attribute of the same name.
+ Assigning to this attribute makes it possible to switch between different error
+ handling strategies during the lifetime of the :class:`StreamWriter` object.
+
+ The set of allowed values for the *errors* argument can be extended with
+ :func:`register_error`.
+
+
+ .. method:: write(object)
+
+ Writes the object's contents encoded to the stream.
+
+
+ .. method:: writelines(list)
+
+ Writes the concatenated list of strings to the stream (possibly by reusing
+ the :meth:`write` method).
+
+
+ .. method:: reset()
+
+ Flushes and resets the codec buffers used for keeping state.
+
+ Calling this method should ensure that the data on the output is put into
+ a clean state that allows appending of new fresh data without having to
+ rescan the whole stream to recover state.
+
+
+In addition to the above methods, the :class:`StreamWriter` must also inherit
+all other methods and attributes from the underlying stream.
+
+
+.. _stream-reader-objects:
+
+StreamReader Objects
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The :class:`StreamReader` class is a subclass of :class:`Codec` and defines the
+following methods which every stream reader must define in order to be
+compatible with the Python codec registry.
+
+
+.. class:: StreamReader(stream[, errors])
+
+ Constructor for a :class:`StreamReader` instance.
+
+ All stream readers must provide this constructor interface. They are free to add
+ additional keyword arguments, but only the ones defined here are used by the
+ Python codec registry.
+
+ *stream* must be a file-like object open for reading (binary) data.
+
+ The :class:`StreamReader` may implement different error handling schemes by
+ providing the *errors* keyword argument. These parameters are defined:
+
+ * ``'strict'`` Raise :exc:`ValueError` (or a subclass); this is the default.
+
+ * ``'ignore'`` Ignore the character and continue with the next.
+
+ * ``'replace'`` Replace with a suitable replacement character.
+
+ The *errors* argument will be assigned to an attribute of the same name.
+ Assigning to this attribute makes it possible to switch between different error
+ handling strategies during the lifetime of the :class:`StreamReader` object.
+
+ The set of allowed values for the *errors* argument can be extended with
+ :func:`register_error`.
+
+
+ .. method:: read([size[, chars, [firstline]]])
+
+ Decodes data from the stream and returns the resulting object.
+
+ *chars* indicates the number of characters to read from the
+ stream. :func:`read` will never return more than *chars* characters, but
+ it might return less, if there are not enough characters available.
+
+ *size* indicates the approximate maximum number of bytes to read from the
+ stream for decoding purposes. The decoder can modify this setting as
+ appropriate. The default value -1 indicates to read and decode as much as
+ possible. *size* is intended to prevent having to decode huge files in
+ one step.
+
+ *firstline* indicates that it would be sufficient to only return the first
+ line, if there are decoding errors on later lines.
+
+ The method should use a greedy read strategy meaning that it should read
+ as much data as is allowed within the definition of the encoding and the
+ given size, e.g. if optional encoding endings or state markers are
+ available on the stream, these should be read too.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ *chars* argument added.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4.2
+ *firstline* argument added.
+
+
+ .. method:: readline([size[, keepends]])
+
+ Read one line from the input stream and return the decoded data.
+
+ *size*, if given, is passed as size argument to the stream's
+ :meth:`readline` method.
+
+ If *keepends* is false line-endings will be stripped from the lines
+ returned.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ *keepends* argument added.
+
+
+ .. method:: readlines([sizehint[, keepends]])
+
+ Read all lines available on the input stream and return them as a list of
+ lines.
+
+ Line-endings are implemented using the codec's decoder method and are
+ included in the list entries if *keepends* is true.
+
+ *sizehint*, if given, is passed as the *size* argument to the stream's
+ :meth:`read` method.
+
+
+ .. method:: reset()
+
+ Resets the codec buffers used for keeping state.
+
+ Note that no stream repositioning should take place. This method is
+ primarily intended to be able to recover from decoding errors.
+
+
+In addition to the above methods, the :class:`StreamReader` must also inherit
+all other methods and attributes from the underlying stream.
+
+The next two base classes are included for convenience. They are not needed by
+the codec registry, but may provide useful in practice.

+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The :class:`StreamReaderWriter` allows wrapping streams which work in both read
+and write modes.
+
+The design is such that one can use the factory functions returned by the
+:func:`lookup` function to construct the instance.
+
+
+.. class:: StreamReaderWriter(stream, Reader, Writer, errors)
+
+ Creates a :class:`StreamReaderWriter` instance. *stream* must be a file-like
+ object. *Reader* and *Writer* must be factory functions or classes providing the
+ :class:`StreamReader` and :class:`StreamWriter` interface resp. Error handling
+ is done in the same way as defined for the stream readers and writers.
+
+:class:`StreamReaderWriter` instances define the combined interfaces of
+:class:`StreamReader` and :class:`StreamWriter` classes. They inherit all other
+methods and attributes from the underlying stream.

+
+StreamRecoder Objects
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The :class:`StreamRecoder` provide a frontend - backend view of encoding data
+which is sometimes useful when dealing with different encoding environments.
+
+The design is such that one can use the factory functions returned by the
+:func:`lookup` function to construct the instance.
+
+
+.. class:: StreamRecoder(stream, encode, decode, Reader, Writer, errors)
+
+ Creates a :class:`StreamRecoder` instance which implements a two-way conversion:
+ *encode* and *decode* work on the frontend (the input to :meth:`read` and output
+ of :meth:`write`) while *Reader* and *Writer* work on the backend (reading and
+ writing to the stream).
+
+ You can use these objects to do transparent direct recodings from e.g. Latin-1
+ to UTF-8 and back.
+
+ *stream* must be a file-like object.
+
+ *encode*, *decode* must adhere to the :class:`Codec` interface. *Reader*,
+ *Writer* must be factory functions or classes providing objects of the
+ :class:`StreamReader` and :class:`StreamWriter` interface respectively.
+
+ *encode* and *decode* are needed for the frontend translation, *Reader* and
+ *Writer* for the backend translation. The intermediate format used is
+ determined by the two sets of codecs, e.g. the Unicode codecs will use Unicode
+ as the intermediate encoding.
+
+ Error handling is done in the same way as defined for the stream readers and
+ writers.
+
+
+:class:`StreamRecoder` instances define the combined interfaces of
+:class:`StreamReader` and :class:`StreamWriter` classes. They inherit all other
+methods and attributes from the underlying stream.
+
+
+.. _encodings-overview:
+
+Encodings and Unicode
+---------------------
+
+Unicode strings are stored internally as sequences of codepoints (to be precise
+as :c:type:`Py_UNICODE` arrays). Depending on the way Python is compiled (either
+via ``--enable-unicode=ucs2`` or ``--enable-unicode=ucs4``, with the
+former being the default) :c:type:`Py_UNICODE` is either a 16-bit or 32-bit data
+type. Once a Unicode object is used outside of CPU and memory, CPU endianness
+and how these arrays are stored as bytes become an issue. Transforming a
+unicode object into a sequence of bytes is called encoding and recreating the
+unicode object from the sequence of bytes is known as decoding. There are many
+different methods for how this transformation can be done (these methods are
+also called encodings). The simplest method is to map the codepoints 0-255 to
+the bytes ``0x0``-``0xff``. This means that a unicode object that contains
+codepoints above ``U+00FF`` can't be encoded with this method (which is called
+``'latin-1'`` or ``'iso-8859-1'``). :func:`unicode.encode` will raise a
+:exc:`UnicodeEncodeError` that looks like this: ``UnicodeEncodeError: 'latin-1'
+codec can't encode character u'\u1234' in position 3: ordinal not in
+range(256)``.
+
+There's another group of encodings (the so called charmap encodings) that choose
+a different subset of all unicode code points and how these codepoints are
+mapped to the bytes ``0x0``-``0xff``. To see how this is done simply open
+e.g. :file:`encodings/cp1252.py` (which is an encoding that is used primarily on
+Windows). There's a string constant with 256 characters that shows you which
+character is mapped to which byte value.
+
+All of these encodings can only encode 256 of the 1114112 codepoints
+defined in unicode. A simple and straightforward way that can store each Unicode
+code point, is to store each codepoint as four consecutive bytes. There are two
+possibilities: store the bytes in big endian or in little endian order. These
+two encodings are called ``UTF-32-BE`` and ``UTF-32-LE`` respectively. Their
+disadvantage is that if e.g. you use ``UTF-32-BE`` on a little endian machine you
+will always have to swap bytes on encoding and decoding. ``UTF-32`` avoids this
+problem: bytes will always be in natural endianness. When these bytes are read
+by a CPU with a different endianness, then bytes have to be swapped though. To
+be able to detect the endianness of a ``UTF-16`` or ``UTF-32`` byte sequence,
+there's the so called BOM ("Byte Order Mark"). This is the Unicode character
+``U+FEFF``. This character can be prepended to every ``UTF-16`` or ``UTF-32``
+byte sequence. The byte swapped version of this character (``0xFFFE``) is an
+illegal character that may not appear in a Unicode text. So when the
+first character in an ``UTF-16`` or ``UTF-32`` byte sequence
+appears to be a ``U+FFFE`` the bytes have to be swapped on decoding.
+Unfortunately the character ``U+FEFF`` had a second purpose as
+a ``ZERO WIDTH NO-BREAK SPACE``: a character that has no width and doesn't allow
+a word to be split. It can e.g. be used to give hints to a ligature algorithm.
+With Unicode 4.0 using ``U+FEFF`` as a ``ZERO WIDTH NO-BREAK SPACE`` has been
+deprecated (with ``U+2060`` (``WORD JOINER``) assuming this role). Nevertheless
+Unicode software still must be able to handle ``U+FEFF`` in both roles: as a BOM
+it's a device to determine the storage layout of the encoded bytes, and vanishes
+once the byte sequence has been decoded into a Unicode string; as a ``ZERO WIDTH
+NO-BREAK SPACE`` it's a normal character that will be decoded like any other.
+
+There's another encoding that is able to encoding the full range of Unicode
+characters: UTF-8. UTF-8 is an 8-bit encoding, which means there are no issues
+with byte order in UTF-8. Each byte in a UTF-8 byte sequence consists of two
+parts: marker bits (the most significant bits) and payload bits. The marker bits
+are a sequence of zero to four ``1`` bits followed by a ``0`` bit. Unicode characters are
+encoded like this (with x being payload bits, which when concatenated give the
+Unicode character):
+
++-----------------------------------+----------------------------------------------+
+| Range | Encoding |
++===================================+==============================================+
+| ``U-00000000`` ... ``U-0000007F`` | 0xxxxxxx |
++-----------------------------------+----------------------------------------------+
+| ``U-00000080`` ... ``U-000007FF`` | 110xxxxx 10xxxxxx |
++-----------------------------------+----------------------------------------------+
+| ``U-00000800`` ... ``U-0000FFFF`` | 1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx |
++-----------------------------------+----------------------------------------------+
+| ``U-00010000`` ... ``U-0010FFFF`` | 11110xxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx |
++-----------------------------------+----------------------------------------------+
+
+The least significant bit of the Unicode character is the rightmost x bit.
+
+As UTF-8 is an 8-bit encoding no BOM is required and any ``U+FEFF`` character in
+the decoded Unicode string (even if it's the first character) is treated as a
+``ZERO WIDTH NO-BREAK SPACE``.
+
+Without external information it's impossible to reliably determine which
+encoding was used for encoding a Unicode string. Each charmap encoding can
+decode any random byte sequence. However that's not possible with UTF-8, as
+UTF-8 byte sequences have a structure that doesn't allow arbitrary byte
+sequences. To increase the reliability with which a UTF-8 encoding can be
+detected, Microsoft invented a variant of UTF-8 (that Python 2.5 calls
+``"utf-8-sig"``) for its Notepad program: Before any of the Unicode characters
+is written to the file, a UTF-8 encoded BOM (which looks like this as a byte
+sequence: ``0xef``, ``0xbb``, ``0xbf``) is written. As it's rather improbable
+that any charmap encoded file starts with these byte values (which would e.g.
+map to
+
+ | LATIN SMALL LETTER I WITH DIAERESIS
+ | RIGHT-POINTING DOUBLE ANGLE QUOTATION MARK
+ | INVERTED QUESTION MARK
+
+in iso-8859-1), this increases the probability that a ``utf-8-sig`` encoding can be
+correctly guessed from the byte sequence. So here the BOM is not used to be able
+to determine the byte order used for generating the byte sequence, but as a
+signature that helps in guessing the encoding. On encoding the utf-8-sig codec
+will write ``0xef``, ``0xbb``, ``0xbf`` as the first three bytes to the file. On
+decoding ``utf-8-sig`` will skip those three bytes if they appear as the first
+three bytes in the file. In UTF-8, the use of the BOM is discouraged and
+should generally be avoided.
+
+
+.. _standard-encodings:
+
+Standard Encodings
+------------------
+
+Python comes with a number of codecs built-in, either implemented as C functions
+or with dictionaries as mapping tables. The following table lists the codecs by
+name, together with a few common aliases, and the languages for which the
+encoding is likely used. Neither the list of aliases nor the list of languages
+is meant to be exhaustive. Notice that spelling alternatives that only differ in
+case or use a hyphen instead of an underscore are also valid aliases; therefore,
+e.g. ``'utf-8'`` is a valid alias for the ``'utf_8'`` codec.
+
+Many of the character sets support the same languages. They vary in individual
+characters (e.g. whether the EURO SIGN is supported or not), and in the
+assignment of characters to code positions. For the European languages in
+particular, the following variants typically exist:
+
+* an ISO 8859 codeset
+
+* a Microsoft Windows code page, which is typically derived from a 8859 codeset,
+ but replaces control characters with additional graphic characters
+
+* an IBM EBCDIC code page
+
+* an IBM PC code page, which is ASCII compatible

+A number of codecs are specific to Python, so their codec names have no meaning
+outside Python. Some of them don't convert from Unicode strings to byte strings,
+but instead use the property of the Python codecs machinery that any bijective
+function with one argument can be considered as an encoding.
+
+For the codecs listed below, the result in the "encoding" direction is always a
+byte string. The result of the "decoding" direction is listed as operand type in

+
+.. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+This module implements :rfc:`3490` (Internationalized Domain Names in
+Applications) and :rfc:`3492` (Nameprep: A Stringprep Profile for
+Internationalized Domain Names (IDN)). It builds upon the ``punycode`` encoding
+and :mod:`stringprep`.
+
+These RFCs together define a protocol to support non-ASCII characters in domain
+names. A domain name containing non-ASCII characters (such as
+``www.Alliancefrançaise.nu``) is converted into an ASCII-compatible encoding
+(ACE, such as ``www.xn--alliancefranaise-npb.nu``). The ACE form of the domain
+name is then used in all places where arbitrary characters are not allowed by
+the protocol, such as DNS queries, HTTP :mailheader:`Host` fields, and so
+on. This conversion is carried out in the application; if possible invisible to
+the user: The application should transparently convert Unicode domain labels to
+IDNA on the wire, and convert back ACE labels to Unicode before presenting them
+to the user.
+
+Python supports this conversion in several ways: the ``idna`` codec performs
+conversion between Unicode and ACE, separating an input string into labels
+based on the separator characters defined in `section 3.1`_ (1) of :rfc:`3490`
+and converting each label to ACE as required, and conversely separating an input
+byte string into labels based on the ``.`` separator and converting any ACE
+labels found into unicode. Furthermore, the :mod:`socket` module
+transparently converts Unicode host names to ACE, so that applications need not
+be concerned about converting host names themselves when they pass them to the
+socket module. On top of that, modules that have host names as function
+parameters, such as :mod:`httplib` and :mod:`ftplib`, accept Unicode host names
+(:mod:`httplib` then also transparently sends an IDNA hostname in the
+:mailheader:`Host` field if it sends that field at all).
+
+.. _section 3.1: http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3490#section-3.1
+
+When receiving host names from the wire (such as in reverse name lookup), no
+automatic conversion to Unicode is performed: Applications wishing to present
+such host names to the user should decode them to Unicode.
+
+The module :mod:`encodings.idna` also implements the nameprep procedure, which
+performs certain normalizations on host names, to achieve case-insensitivity of
+international domain names, and to unify similar characters. The nameprep
+functions can be used directly if desired.
+
+
+.. function:: nameprep(label)
+
+ Return the nameprepped version of *label*. The implementation currently assumes
+ query strings, so ``AllowUnassigned`` is true.
+
+
+.. function:: ToASCII(label)
+
+ Convert a label to ASCII, as specified in :rfc:`3490`. ``UseSTD3ASCIIRules`` is
+ assumed to be false.
+
+
+.. function:: ToUnicode(label)
+
+ Convert a label to Unicode, as specified in :rfc:`3490`.

+:mod:`encodings.utf_8_sig` --- UTF-8 codec with BOM signature
+-------------------------------------------------------------
+
+.. module:: encodings.utf_8_sig
+ :synopsis: UTF-8 codec with BOM signature
+.. moduleauthor:: Walter Dörwald
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+This module implements a variant of the UTF-8 codec: On encoding a UTF-8 encoded
+BOM will be prepended to the UTF-8 encoded bytes. For the stateful encoder this
+is only done once (on the first write to the byte stream). For decoding an
+optional UTF-8 encoded BOM at the start of the data will be skipped.

+
+:mod:`codeop` --- Compile Python code
+=====================================
+
+.. module:: codeop
+ :synopsis: Compile (possibly incomplete) Python code.
+.. sectionauthor:: Moshe Zadka <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Michael Hudson <[email protected]>
+
+The :mod:`codeop` module provides utilities upon which the Python
+read-eval-print loop can be emulated, as is done in the :mod:`code` module. As
+a result, you probably don't want to use the module directly; if you want to
+include such a loop in your program you probably want to use the :mod:`code`
+module instead.
+
+There are two parts to this job:
+
+#. Being able to tell if a line of input completes a Python statement: in
+ short, telling whether to print '``>>>``' or '``...``' next.
+
+#. Remembering which future statements the user has entered, so subsequent
+ input can be compiled with these in effect.
+
+The :mod:`codeop` module provides a way of doing each of these things, and a way
+of doing them both.
+
+To do just the former:
+
+.. function:: compile_command(source[, filename[, symbol]])
+
+ Tries to compile *source*, which should be a string of Python code and return a
+ code object if *source* is valid Python code. In that case, the filename
+ attribute of the code object will be *filename*, which defaults to
+ ``'<input>'``. Returns ``None`` if *source* is *not* valid Python code, but is a
+ prefix of valid Python code.
+
+ If there is a problem with *source*, an exception will be raised.
+ :exc:`SyntaxError` is raised if there is invalid Python syntax, and
+ :exc:`OverflowError` or :exc:`ValueError` if there is an invalid literal.
+
+ The *symbol* argument determines whether *source* is compiled as a statement
+ (``'single'``, the default) or as an :term:`expression` (``'eval'``). Any
+ other value will cause :exc:`ValueError` to be raised.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ It is possible (but not likely) that the parser stops parsing with a
+ successful outcome before reaching the end of the source; in this case,
+ trailing symbols may be ignored instead of causing an error. For example,
+ a backslash followed by two newlines may be followed by arbitrary garbage.
+ This will be fixed once the API for the parser is better.
+
+
+.. class:: Compile()
+
+ Instances of this class have :meth:`__call__` methods identical in signature to
+ the built-in function :func:`compile`, but with the difference that if the
+ instance compiles program text containing a :mod:`__future__` statement, the
+ instance 'remembers' and compiles all subsequent program texts with the
+ statement in force.
+
+
+.. class:: CommandCompiler()
+
+ Instances of this class have :meth:`__call__` methods identical in signature to
+ :func:`compile_command`; the difference is that if the instance compiles program
+ text containing a ``__future__`` statement, the instance 'remembers' and
+ compiles all subsequent program texts with the statement in force.
+
+A note on version compatibility: the :class:`Compile` and
+:class:`CommandCompiler` are new in Python 2.2. If you want to enable the
+future-tracking features of 2.2 but also retain compatibility with 2.1 and
+earlier versions of Python you can either write ::
+
+ try:
+ from codeop import CommandCompiler
+ compile_command = CommandCompiler()
+ del CommandCompiler
+ except ImportError:
+ from codeop import compile_command
+
+which is a low-impact change, but introduces possibly unwanted global state into
+your program, or you can write::
+
+ try:
+ from codeop import CommandCompiler
+ except ImportError:
+ def CommandCompiler():
+ from codeop import compile_command
+ return compile_command
+
+and then call ``CommandCompiler`` every time you need a fresh compiler object.

+:mod:`collections` --- High-performance container datatypes
+===========================================================
+
+.. module:: collections

+ import itertools
+ __name__ = '<doctest>'
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/collections.py` and :source:`Lib/_abcoll.py`
+
+--------------
+
+This module implements specialized container datatypes providing alternatives to
+Python's general purpose built-in containers, :class:`dict`, :class:`list`,
+:class:`set`, and :class:`tuple`.
+
+===================== ==================================================================== ===========================
+:func:`namedtuple` factory function for creating tuple subclasses with named fields .. versionadded:: 2.6
+:class:`deque` list-like container with fast appends and pops on either end .. versionadded:: 2.4
+:class:`Counter` dict subclass for counting hashable objects .. versionadded:: 2.7
+:class:`OrderedDict` dict subclass that remembers the order entries were added .. versionadded:: 2.7
+:class:`defaultdict` dict subclass that calls a factory function to supply missing values .. versionadded:: 2.5
+===================== ==================================================================== ===========================
+
+In addition to the concrete container classes, the collections module provides
+:ref:`abstract base classes <collections-abstract-base-classes>` that can be
+used to test whether a class provides a particular interface, for example,
+whether it is hashable or a mapping.
+
+
+:class:`Counter` objects
+------------------------
+
+A counter tool is provided to support convenient and rapid tallies.
+For example::
+
+ >>> # Tally occurrences of words in a list
+ >>> cnt = Counter()
+ >>> for word in ['red', 'blue', 'red', 'green', 'blue', 'blue']:
+ ... cnt[word] += 1
+ >>> cnt
+ Counter({'blue': 3, 'red': 2, 'green': 1})
+
+ >>> # Find the ten most common words in Hamlet
+ >>> import re
+ >>> words = re.findall(r'\w+', open('hamlet.txt').read().lower())
+ >>> Counter(words).most_common(10)
+ [('the', 1143), ('and', 966), ('to', 762), ('of', 669), ('i', 631),
+ ('you', 554), ('a', 546), ('my', 514), ('hamlet', 471), ('in', 451)]
+
+.. class:: Counter([iterable-or-mapping])
+
+ A :class:`Counter` is a :class:`dict` subclass for counting hashable objects.
+ It is an unordered collection where elements are stored as dictionary keys
+ and their counts are stored as dictionary values. Counts are allowed to be
+ any integer value including zero or negative counts. The :class:`Counter`
+ class is similar to bags or multisets in other languages.
+
+ Elements are counted from an *iterable* or initialized from another
+ *mapping* (or counter):
+
+ >>> c = Counter() # a new, empty counter
+ >>> c = Counter('gallahad') # a new counter from an iterable
+ >>> c = Counter({'red': 4, 'blue': 2}) # a new counter from a mapping
+ >>> c = Counter(cats=4, dogs=8) # a new counter from keyword args
+
+ Counter objects have a dictionary interface except that they return a zero
+ count for missing items instead of raising a :exc:`KeyError`:
+
+ >>> c = Counter(['eggs', 'ham'])
+ >>> c['bacon'] # count of a missing element is zero
+ 0
+
+ Setting a count to zero does not remove an element from a counter.
+ Use ``del`` to remove it entirely:
+
+ >>> c['sausage'] = 0 # counter entry with a zero count
+ >>> del c['sausage'] # del actually removes the entry
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+ Counter objects support three methods beyond those available for all
+ dictionaries:
+
+ .. method:: elements()
+
+ Return an iterator over elements repeating each as many times as its
+ count. Elements are returned in arbitrary order. If an element's count
+ is less than one, :meth:`elements` will ignore it.
+
+ >>> c = Counter(a=4, b=2, c=0, d=-2)
+ >>> list(c.elements())
+ ['a', 'a', 'a', 'a', 'b', 'b']
+
+ .. method:: most_common([n])
+
+ Return a list of the *n* most common elements and their counts from the
+ most common to the least. If *n* is not specified, :func:`most_common`
+ returns *all* elements in the counter. Elements with equal counts are
+ ordered arbitrarily:
+
+ >>> Counter('abracadabra').most_common(3)
+ [('a', 5), ('r', 2), ('b', 2)]
+
+ .. method:: subtract([iterable-or-mapping])
+
+ Elements are subtracted from an *iterable* or from another *mapping*
+ (or counter). Like :meth:`dict.update` but subtracts counts instead
+ of replacing them. Both inputs and outputs may be zero or negative.
+
+ >>> c = Counter(a=4, b=2, c=0, d=-2)
+ >>> d = Counter(a=1, b=2, c=3, d=4)
+ >>> c.subtract(d)
+ >>> c
+ Counter({'a': 3, 'b': 0, 'c': -3, 'd': -6})
+
+ The usual dictionary methods are available for :class:`Counter` objects
+ except for two which work differently for counters.
+
+ .. method:: fromkeys(iterable)
+
+ This class method is not implemented for :class:`Counter` objects.
+
+ .. method:: update([iterable-or-mapping])
+
+ Elements are counted from an *iterable* or added-in from another
+ *mapping* (or counter). Like :meth:`dict.update` but adds counts
+ instead of replacing them. Also, the *iterable* is expected to be a
+ sequence of elements, not a sequence of ``(key, value)`` pairs.
+
+Common patterns for working with :class:`Counter` objects::
+
+ sum(c.values()) # total of all counts
+ c.clear() # reset all counts
+ list(c) # list unique elements
+ set(c) # convert to a set
+ dict(c) # convert to a regular dictionary
+ c.items() # convert to a list of (elem, cnt) pairs
+ Counter(dict(list_of_pairs)) # convert from a list of (elem, cnt) pairs
+ c.most_common()[:-n:-1] # n least common elements
+ c += Counter() # remove zero and negative counts
+
+Several mathematical operations are provided for combining :class:`Counter`
+objects to produce multisets (counters that have counts greater than zero).
+Addition and subtraction combine counters by adding or subtracting the counts
+of corresponding elements. Intersection and union return the minimum and
+maximum of corresponding counts. Each operation can accept inputs with signed
+counts, but the output will exclude results with counts of zero or less.
+
+ >>> c = Counter(a=3, b=1)
+ >>> d = Counter(a=1, b=2)
+ >>> c + d # add two counters together: c[x] + d[x]
+ Counter({'a': 4, 'b': 3})
+ >>> c - d # subtract (keeping only positive counts)
+ Counter({'a': 2})
+ >>> c & d # intersection: min(c[x], d[x])
+ Counter({'a': 1, 'b': 1})
+ >>> c | d # union: max(c[x], d[x])
+ Counter({'a': 3, 'b': 2})
+
+.. note::
+
+ Counters were primarily designed to work with positive integers to represent
+ running counts; however, care was taken to not unnecessarily preclude use
+ cases needing other types or negative values. To help with those use cases,
+ this section documents the minimum range and type restrictions.
+
+ * The :class:`Counter` class itself is a dictionary subclass with no
+ restrictions on its keys and values. The values are intended to be numbers
+ representing counts, but you *could* store anything in the value field.
+
+ * The :meth:`most_common` method requires only that the values be orderable.
+
+ * For in-place operations such as ``c[key] += 1``, the value type need only
+ support addition and subtraction. So fractions, floats, and decimals would
+ work and negative values are supported. The same is also true for
+ :meth:`update` and :meth:`subtract` which allow negative and zero values
+ for both inputs and outputs.
+
+ * The multiset methods are designed only for use cases with positive values.
+ The inputs may be negative or zero, but only outputs with positive values
+ are created. There are no type restrictions, but the value type needs to
+ support addition, subtraction, and comparison.
+
+ * The :meth:`elements` method requires integer counts. It ignores zero and
+ negative counts.

+
+:class:`deque` objects
+----------------------
+
+.. class:: deque([iterable[, maxlen]])
+
+ Returns a new deque object initialized left-to-right (using :meth:`append`) with
+ data from *iterable*. If *iterable* is not specified, the new deque is empty.
+
+ Deques are a generalization of stacks and queues (the name is pronounced "deck"
+ and is short for "double-ended queue"). Deques support thread-safe, memory
+ efficient appends and pops from either side of the deque with approximately the
+ same O(1) performance in either direction.
+
+ Though :class:`list` objects support similar operations, they are optimized for
+ fast fixed-length operations and incur O(n) memory movement costs for
+ ``pop(0)`` and ``insert(0, v)`` operations which change both the size and
+ position of the underlying data representation.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+ If *maxlen* is not specified or is *None*, deques may grow to an
+ arbitrary length. Otherwise, the deque is bounded to the specified maximum
+ length. Once a bounded length deque is full, when new items are added, a
+ corresponding number of items are discarded from the opposite end. Bounded
+ length deques provide functionality similar to the ``tail`` filter in
+ Unix. They are also useful for tracking transactions and other pools of data
+ where only the most recent activity is of interest.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ Added *maxlen* parameter.
+
+ Deque objects support the following methods:
+
+
+ .. method:: append(x)
+
+ Add *x* to the right side of the deque.
+
+
+ .. method:: appendleft(x)
+
+ Add *x* to the left side of the deque.
+
+
+ .. method:: clear()
+
+ Remove all elements from the deque leaving it with length 0.
+
+
+ .. method:: count(x)
+
+ Count the number of deque elements equal to *x*.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+ .. method:: extend(iterable)
+
+ Extend the right side of the deque by appending elements from the iterable
+ argument.
+
+
+ .. method:: extendleft(iterable)
+
+ Extend the left side of the deque by appending elements from *iterable*.
+ Note, the series of left appends results in reversing the order of
+ elements in the iterable argument.
+
+
+ .. method:: pop()
+
+ Remove and return an element from the right side of the deque. If no
+ elements are present, raises an :exc:`IndexError`.
+
+
+ .. method:: popleft()
+
+ Remove and return an element from the left side of the deque. If no
+ elements are present, raises an :exc:`IndexError`.
+
+
+ .. method:: remove(value)
+
+ Removed the first occurrence of *value*. If not found, raises a
+ :exc:`ValueError`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+ .. method:: reverse()
+
+ Reverse the elements of the deque in-place and then return ``None``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+ .. method:: rotate(n)
+
+ Rotate the deque *n* steps to the right. If *n* is negative, rotate to
+ the left. Rotating one step to the right is equivalent to:
+ ``d.appendleft(d.pop())``.
+
+
+ Deque objects also provide one read-only attribute:
+
+ .. attribute:: maxlen
+
+ Maximum size of a deque or *None* if unbounded.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+In addition to the above, deques support iteration, pickling, ``len(d)``,
+``reversed(d)``, ``copy.copy(d)``, ``copy.deepcopy(d)``, membership testing with
+the :keyword:`in` operator, and subscript references such as ``d[-1]``. Indexed
+access is O(1) at both ends but slows to O(n) in the middle. For fast random
+access, use lists instead.
+
+Example:
+
+.. doctest::
+
+ >>> from collections import deque
+ >>> d = deque('ghi') # make a new deque with three items
+ >>> for elem in d: # iterate over the deque's elements
+ ... print elem.upper()
+ G
+ H
+ I
+
+ >>> d.append('j') # add a new entry to the right side
+ >>> d.appendleft('f') # add a new entry to the left side
+ >>> d # show the representation of the deque
+ deque(['f', 'g', 'h', 'i', 'j'])
+
+ >>> d.pop() # return and remove the rightmost item
+ 'j'
+ >>> d.popleft() # return and remove the leftmost item
+ 'f'
+ >>> list(d) # list the contents of the deque
+ ['g', 'h', 'i']
+ >>> d[0] # peek at leftmost item
+ 'g'
+ >>> d[-1] # peek at rightmost item
+ 'i'
+
+ >>> list(reversed(d)) # list the contents of a deque in reverse
+ ['i', 'h', 'g']
+ >>> 'h' in d # search the deque
+ True
+ >>> d.extend('jkl') # add multiple elements at once
+ >>> d
+ deque(['g', 'h', 'i', 'j', 'k', 'l'])
+ >>> d.rotate(1) # right rotation
+ >>> d
+ deque(['l', 'g', 'h', 'i', 'j', 'k'])
+ >>> d.rotate(-1) # left rotation
+ >>> d
+ deque(['g', 'h', 'i', 'j', 'k', 'l'])
+
+ >>> deque(reversed(d)) # make a new deque in reverse order
+ deque(['l', 'k', 'j', 'i', 'h', 'g'])
+ >>> d.clear() # empty the deque
+ >>> d.pop() # cannot pop from an empty deque
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ File "<pyshell#6>", line 1, in -toplevel-
+ d.pop()
+ IndexError: pop from an empty deque
+
+ >>> d.extendleft('abc') # extendleft() reverses the input order
+ >>> d
+ deque(['c', 'b', 'a'])
+
+
+:class:`deque` Recipes
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+This section shows various approaches to working with deques.
+
+Bounded length deques provide functionality similar to the ``tail`` filter
+in Unix::
+
+ def tail(filename, n=10):
+ 'Return the last n lines of a file'
+ return deque(open(filename), n)
+
+Another approach to using deques is to maintain a sequence of recently
+added elements by appending to the right and popping to the left::
+
+ def moving_average(iterable, n=3):
+ # moving_average([40, 30, 50, 46, 39, 44]) --> 40.0 42.0 45.0 43.0
+ # http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moving_average
+ it = iter(iterable)
+ d = deque(itertools.islice(it, n-1))
+ d.appendleft(0)
+ s = sum(d)
+ for elem in it:
+ s += elem - d.popleft()
+ d.append(elem)
+ yield s / float(n)
+
+The :meth:`rotate` method provides a way to implement :class:`deque` slicing and
+deletion. For example, a pure Python implementation of ``del d[n]`` relies on
+the :meth:`rotate` method to position elements to be popped::
+
+ def delete_nth(d, n):
+ d.rotate(-n)
+ d.popleft()
+ d.rotate(n)
+
+To implement :class:`deque` slicing, use a similar approach applying
+:meth:`rotate` to bring a target element to the left side of the deque. Remove
+old entries with :meth:`popleft`, add new entries with :meth:`extend`, and then
+reverse the rotation.
+With minor variations on that approach, it is easy to implement Forth style
+stack manipulations such as ``dup``, ``drop``, ``swap``, ``over``, ``pick``,
+``rot``, and ``roll``.
+
+
+:class:`defaultdict` objects
+----------------------------
+
+.. class:: defaultdict([default_factory[, ...]])
+
+ Returns a new dictionary-like object. :class:`defaultdict` is a subclass of the
+ built-in :class:`dict` class. It overrides one method and adds one writable
+ instance variable. The remaining functionality is the same as for the
+ :class:`dict` class and is not documented here.
+
+ The first argument provides the initial value for the :attr:`default_factory`
+ attribute; it defaults to ``None``. All remaining arguments are treated the same
+ as if they were passed to the :class:`dict` constructor, including keyword
+ arguments.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+ :class:`defaultdict` objects support the following method in addition to the
+ standard :class:`dict` operations:
+
+ .. method:: __missing__(key)
+
+ If the :attr:`default_factory` attribute is ``None``, this raises a
+ :exc:`KeyError` exception with the *key* as argument.
+
+ If :attr:`default_factory` is not ``None``, it is called without arguments
+ to provide a default value for the given *key*, this value is inserted in
+ the dictionary for the *key*, and returned.
+
+ If calling :attr:`default_factory` raises an exception this exception is
+ propagated unchanged.
+
+ This method is called by the :meth:`__getitem__` method of the
+ :class:`dict` class when the requested key is not found; whatever it
+ returns or raises is then returned or raised by :meth:`__getitem__`.
+
+ Note that :meth:`__missing__` is *not* called for any operations besides
+ :meth:`__getitem__`. This means that :meth:`get` will, like normal
+ dictionaries, return ``None`` as a default rather than using
+ :attr:`default_factory`.
+
+
+ :class:`defaultdict` objects support the following instance variable:
+
+
+ .. attribute:: default_factory
+
+ This attribute is used by the :meth:`__missing__` method; it is
+ initialized from the first argument to the constructor, if present, or to
+ ``None``, if absent.
+
+
+:class:`defaultdict` Examples
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Using :class:`list` as the :attr:`default_factory`, it is easy to group a
+sequence of key-value pairs into a dictionary of lists:
+
+ >>> s = [('yellow', 1), ('blue', 2), ('yellow', 3), ('blue', 4), ('red', 1)]
+ >>> d = defaultdict(list)
+ >>> for k, v in s:
+ ... d[k].append(v)
+ ...
+ >>> d.items()
+ [('blue', [2, 4]), ('red', [1]), ('yellow', [1, 3])]
+
+When each key is encountered for the first time, it is not already in the
+mapping; so an entry is automatically created using the :attr:`default_factory`
+function which returns an empty :class:`list`. The :meth:`list.append`
+operation then attaches the value to the new list. When keys are encountered
+again, the look-up proceeds normally (returning the list for that key) and the
+:meth:`list.append` operation adds another value to the list. This technique is
+simpler and faster than an equivalent technique using :meth:`dict.setdefault`:
+
+ >>> d = {}
+ >>> for k, v in s:
+ ... d.setdefault(k, []).append(v)
+ ...
+ >>> d.items()
+ [('blue', [2, 4]), ('red', [1]), ('yellow', [1, 3])]
+
+Setting the :attr:`default_factory` to :class:`int` makes the
+:class:`defaultdict` useful for counting (like a bag or multiset in other
+languages):
+
+ >>> s = 'mississippi'
+ >>> d = defaultdict(int)
+ >>> for k in s:
+ ... d[k] += 1
+ ...
+ >>> d.items()
+ [('i', 4), ('p', 2), ('s', 4), ('m', 1)]
+
+When a letter is first encountered, it is missing from the mapping, so the
+:attr:`default_factory` function calls :func:`int` to supply a default count of
+zero. The increment operation then builds up the count for each letter.
+
+The function :func:`int` which always returns zero is just a special case of
+constant functions. A faster and more flexible way to create constant functions
+is to use :func:`itertools.repeat` which can supply any constant value (not just
+zero):
+
+ >>> def constant_factory(value):
+ ... return itertools.repeat(value).next
+ >>> d = defaultdict(constant_factory('<missing>'))
+ >>> d.update(name='John', action='ran')
+ >>> '%(name)s %(action)s to %(object)s' % d
+ 'John ran to <missing>'
+
+Setting the :attr:`default_factory` to :class:`set` makes the
+:class:`defaultdict` useful for building a dictionary of sets:
+
+ >>> s = [('red', 1), ('blue', 2), ('red', 3), ('blue', 4), ('red', 1), ('blue', 4)]
+ >>> d = defaultdict(set)
+ >>> for k, v in s:
+ ... d[k].add(v)
+ ...
+ >>> d.items()
+ [('blue', set([2, 4])), ('red', set([1, 3]))]
+
+
+:func:`namedtuple` Factory Function for Tuples with Named Fields
+----------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Named tuples assign meaning to each position in a tuple and allow for more readable,
+self-documenting code. They can be used wherever regular tuples are used, and
+they add the ability to access fields by name instead of position index.
+
+.. function:: namedtuple(typename, field_names, [verbose=False], [rename=False])
+
+ Returns a new tuple subclass named *typename*. The new subclass is used to
+ create tuple-like objects that have fields accessible by attribute lookup as
+ well as being indexable and iterable. Instances of the subclass also have a
+ helpful docstring (with typename and field_names) and a helpful :meth:`__repr__`
+ method which lists the tuple contents in a ``name=value`` format.
+
+ The *field_names* are a sequence of strings such as ``['x', 'y']``.
+ Alternatively, *field_names* can be a single string with each fieldname
+ separated by whitespace and/or commas, for example ``'x y'`` or ``'x, y'``.
+
+ Any valid Python identifier may be used for a fieldname except for names
+ starting with an underscore. Valid identifiers consist of letters, digits,
+ and underscores but do not start with a digit or underscore and cannot be
+ a :mod:`keyword` such as *class*, *for*, *return*, *global*, *pass*, *print*,
+ or *raise*.
+
+ If *rename* is true, invalid fieldnames are automatically replaced
+ with positional names. For example, ``['abc', 'def', 'ghi', 'abc']`` is
+ converted to ``['abc', '_1', 'ghi', '_3']``, eliminating the keyword
+ ``def`` and the duplicate fieldname ``abc``.
+
+ If *verbose* is true, the class definition is printed just before being built.
+
+ Named tuple instances do not have per-instance dictionaries, so they are
+ lightweight and require no more memory than regular tuples.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ added support for *rename*.
+
+Example:
+
+.. doctest::
+ :options: +NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE
+
+ >>> Point = namedtuple('Point', ['x', 'y'], verbose=True)
+ class Point(tuple):
+ 'Point(x, y)'

+ return result
+ <BLANKLINE>
+ def __getnewargs__(self):

+ <BLANKLINE>
+
+ >>> p = Point(11, y=22) # instantiate with positional or keyword arguments
+ >>> p[0] + p[1] # indexable like the plain tuple (11, 22)
+ 33
+ >>> x, y = p # unpack like a regular tuple
+ >>> x, y
+ (11, 22)
+ >>> p.x + p.y # fields also accessible by name
+ 33
+ >>> p # readable __repr__ with a name=value style
+ Point(x=11, y=22)
+
+Named tuples are especially useful for assigning field names to result tuples returned
+by the :mod:`csv` or :mod:`sqlite3` modules::
+
+ EmployeeRecord = namedtuple('EmployeeRecord', 'name, age, title, department, paygrade')
+
+ import csv
+ for emp in map(EmployeeRecord._make, csv.reader(open("employees.csv", "rb"))):
+ print emp.name, emp.title
+
+ import sqlite3
+ conn = sqlite3.connect('/companydata')
+ cursor = conn.cursor()
+ cursor.execute('SELECT name, age, title, department, paygrade FROM employees')
+ for emp in map(EmployeeRecord._make, cursor.fetchall()):
+ print emp.name, emp.title
+
+In addition to the methods inherited from tuples, named tuples support
+three additional methods and one attribute. To prevent conflicts with
+field names, the method and attribute names start with an underscore.
+
+.. classmethod:: somenamedtuple._make(iterable)
+
+ Class method that makes a new instance from an existing sequence or iterable.
+
+ .. doctest::
+
+ >>> t = [11, 22]
+ >>> Point._make(t)
+ Point(x=11, y=22)
+
+.. method:: somenamedtuple._asdict()
+
+ Return a new :class:`OrderedDict` which maps field names to their corresponding
+ values::
+
+ >>> p._asdict()
+ OrderedDict([('x', 11), ('y', 22)])
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ Returns an :class:`OrderedDict` instead of a regular :class:`dict`.
+
+.. method:: somenamedtuple._replace(kwargs)
+
+ Return a new instance of the named tuple replacing specified fields with new
+ values::
+
+ >>> p = Point(x=11, y=22)
+ >>> p._replace(x=33)
+ Point(x=33, y=22)
+
+ >>> for partnum, record in inventory.items():
+ inventory[partnum] = record._replace(price=newprices[partnum], timestamp=time.now())
+
+.. attribute:: somenamedtuple._fields
+
+ Tuple of strings listing the field names. Useful for introspection
+ and for creating new named tuple types from existing named tuples.
+
+ .. doctest::
+
+ >>> p._fields # view the field names
+ ('x', 'y')
+
+ >>> Color = namedtuple('Color', 'red green blue')
+ >>> Pixel = namedtuple('Pixel', Point._fields + Color._fields)
+ >>> Pixel(11, 22, 128, 255, 0)
+ Pixel(x=11, y=22, red=128, green=255, blue=0)
+
+To retrieve a field whose name is stored in a string, use the :func:`getattr`
+function:
+
+ >>> getattr(p, 'x')
+ 11
+
+To convert a dictionary to a named tuple, use the double-star-operator
+(as described in :ref:`tut-unpacking-arguments`):
+
+ >>> d = {'x': 11, 'y': 22}
+ >>> Point(**d)
+ Point(x=11, y=22)
+
+Since a named tuple is a regular Python class, it is easy to add or change
+functionality with a subclass. Here is how to add a calculated field and
+a fixed-width print format:
+
+ >>> class Point(namedtuple('Point', 'x y')):
+ __slots__ = ()
+ @property
+ def hypot(self):
+ return (self.x ** 2 + self.y ** 2) ** 0.5
+ def __str__(self):
+ return 'Point: x=%6.3f y=%6.3f hypot=%6.3f' % (self.x, self.y, self.hypot)
+
+ >>> for p in Point(3, 4), Point(14, 5/7.):
+ print p
+ Point: x= 3.000 y= 4.000 hypot= 5.000
+ Point: x=14.000 y= 0.714 hypot=14.018
+
+The subclass shown above sets ``__slots__`` to an empty tuple. This helps
+keep memory requirements low by preventing the creation of instance dictionaries.
+
+Subclassing is not useful for adding new, stored fields. Instead, simply
+create a new named tuple type from the :attr:`_fields` attribute:
+
+ >>> Point3D = namedtuple('Point3D', Point._fields + ('z',))
+
+Default values can be implemented by using :meth:`_replace` to
+customize a prototype instance:
+
+ >>> Account = namedtuple('Account', 'owner balance transaction_count')
+ >>> default_account = Account('<owner name>', 0.0, 0)
+ >>> johns_account = default_account._replace(owner='John')
+
+Enumerated constants can be implemented with named tuples, but it is simpler
+and more efficient to use a simple class declaration:
+
+ >>> Status = namedtuple('Status', 'open pending closed')._make(range(3))
+ >>> Status.open, Status.pending, Status.closed
+ (0, 1, 2)
+ >>> class Status:
+ open, pending, closed = range(3)

+
+
+:class:`OrderedDict` objects
+----------------------------
+
+Ordered dictionaries are just like regular dictionaries but they remember the
+order that items were inserted. When iterating over an ordered dictionary,
+the items are returned in the order their keys were first added.
+
+.. class:: OrderedDict([items])
+
+ Return an instance of a dict subclass, supporting the usual :class:`dict`
+ methods. An *OrderedDict* is a dict that remembers the order that keys
+ were first inserted. If a new entry overwrites an existing entry, the
+ original insertion position is left unchanged. Deleting an entry and
+ reinserting it will move it to the end.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+.. method:: OrderedDict.popitem(last=True)
+
+ The :meth:`popitem` method for ordered dictionaries returns and removes
+ a (key, value) pair. The pairs are returned in LIFO order if *last* is
+ true or FIFO order if false.
+
+In addition to the usual mapping methods, ordered dictionaries also support
+reverse iteration using :func:`reversed`.
+
+Equality tests between :class:`OrderedDict` objects are order-sensitive
+and are implemented as ``list(od1.items())==list(od2.items())``.
+Equality tests between :class:`OrderedDict` objects and other
+:class:`Mapping` objects are order-insensitive like regular dictionaries.
+This allows :class:`OrderedDict` objects to be substituted anywhere a
+regular dictionary is used.
+
+The :class:`OrderedDict` constructor and :meth:`update` method both accept
+keyword arguments, but their order is lost because Python's function call
+semantics pass-in keyword arguments using a regular unordered dictionary.
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ `Equivalent OrderedDict recipe <http://code.activestate.com/recipes/576693/>`_
+ that runs on Python 2.4 or later.
+
+:class:`OrderedDict` Examples and Recipes
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Since an ordered dictionary remembers its insertion order, it can be used
+in conjuction with sorting to make a sorted dictionary::
+
+ >>> # regular unsorted dictionary
+ >>> d = {'banana': 3, 'apple':4, 'pear': 1, 'orange': 2}
+
+ >>> # dictionary sorted by key
+ >>> OrderedDict(sorted(d.items(), key=lambda t: t[0]))
+ OrderedDict([('apple', 4), ('banana', 3), ('orange', 2), ('pear', 1)])
+
+ >>> # dictionary sorted by value
+ >>> OrderedDict(sorted(d.items(), key=lambda t: t[1]))
+ OrderedDict([('pear', 1), ('orange', 2), ('banana', 3), ('apple', 4)])
+
+ >>> # dictionary sorted by length of the key string
+ >>> OrderedDict(sorted(d.items(), key=lambda t: len(t[0])))
+ OrderedDict([('pear', 1), ('apple', 4), ('orange', 2), ('banana', 3)])
+
+The new sorted dictionaries maintain their sort order when entries
+are deleted. But when new keys are added, the keys are appended
+to the end and the sort is not maintained.
+
+It is also straight-forward to create an ordered dictionary variant
+that remembers the order the keys were *last* inserted.
+If a new entry overwrites an existing entry, the
+original insertion position is changed and moved to the end::
+
+ class LastUpdatedOrderedDict(OrderedDict):
+ 'Store items in the order the keys were last added'
+
+ def __setitem__(self, key, value):
+ if key in self:
+ del self[key]
+ OrderedDict.__setitem__(self, key, value)
+
+An ordered dictionary can be combined with the :class:`Counter` class
+so that the counter remembers the order elements are first encountered::
+
+ class OrderedCounter(Counter, OrderedDict):
+ 'Counter that remembers the order elements are first encountered'
+
+ def __repr__(self):
+ return '%s(%r)' % (self.__class__.__name__, OrderedDict(self))
+
+ def __reduce__(self):
+ return self.__class__, (OrderedDict(self),)

+
+.. class:: Container
+ Hashable

+
+ ABCs for classes that provide respectively the methods :meth:`__contains__`,
+ :meth:`__hash__`, :meth:`__len__`, and :meth:`__call__`.
+
+.. class:: Iterable
+
+ ABC for classes that provide the :meth:`__iter__` method.
+ See also the definition of :term:`iterable`.
+
+.. class:: Iterator
+
+ ABC for classes that provide the :meth:`__iter__` and :meth:`next` methods.
+ See also the definition of :term:`iterator`.
+
+.. class:: Sequence
+ MutableSequence
+
+ ABCs for read-only and mutable :term:`sequences <sequence>`.
+
+.. class:: Set
+ MutableSet
+
+ ABCs for read-only and mutable sets.
+
+.. class:: Mapping
+ MutableMapping
+
+ ABCs for read-only and mutable :term:`mappings <mapping>`.
+
+.. class:: MappingView
+ ItemsView
+ KeysView
+ ValuesView
+
+ ABCs for mapping, items, keys, and values :term:`views <view>`.
+
+
+These ABCs allow us to ask classes or instances if they provide
+particular functionality, for example::
+
+ size = None
+ if isinstance(myvar, collections.Sized):
+ size = len(myvar)
+
+Several of the ABCs are also useful as mixins that make it easier to develop
+classes supporting container APIs. For example, to write a class supporting
+the full :class:`Set` API, it only necessary to supply the three underlying
+abstract methods: :meth:`__contains__`, :meth:`__iter__`, and :meth:`__len__`.
+The ABC supplies the remaining methods such as :meth:`__and__` and
+:meth:`isdisjoint` ::
+
+ class ListBasedSet(collections.Set):
+ ''' Alternate set implementation favoring space over speed
+ and not requiring the set elements to be hashable. '''
+ def __init__(self, iterable):
+ self.elements = lst = []
+ for value in iterable:
+ if value not in lst:
+ lst.append(value)
+ def __iter__(self):
+ return iter(self.elements)
+ def __contains__(self, value):
+ return value in self.elements
+ def __len__(self):
+ return len(self.elements)
+
+ s1 = ListBasedSet('abcdef')
+ s2 = ListBasedSet('defghi')
+ overlap = s1 & s2 # The __and__() method is supported automatically
+
+Notes on using :class:`Set` and :class:`MutableSet` as a mixin:
+
+(1)
+ Since some set operations create new sets, the default mixin methods need
+ a way to create new instances from an iterable. The class constructor is
+ assumed to have a signature in the form ``ClassName(iterable)``.
+ That assumption is factored-out to an internal classmethod called
+ :meth:`_from_iterable` which calls ``cls(iterable)`` to produce a new set.
+ If the :class:`Set` mixin is being used in a class with a different
+ constructor signature, you will need to override :meth:`_from_iterable`
+ with a classmethod that can construct new instances from
+ an iterable argument.
+
+(2)
+ To override the comparisons (presumably for speed, as the
+ semantics are fixed), redefine :meth:`__le__` and
+ then the other operations will automatically follow suit.
+
+(3)
+ The :class:`Set` mixin provides a :meth:`_hash` method to compute a hash value
+ for the set; however, :meth:`__hash__` is not defined because not all sets
+ are hashable or immutable. To add set hashabilty using mixins,
+ inherit from both :meth:`Set` and :meth:`Hashable`, then define
+ ``__hash__ = Set._hash``.

+.. sectionauthor:: David Ascher <[email protected]>
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/colorsys.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`colorsys` module defines bidirectional conversions of color values
+between colors expressed in the RGB (Red Green Blue) color space used in
+computer monitors and three other coordinate systems: YIQ, HLS (Hue Lightness
+Saturation) and HSV (Hue Saturation Value). Coordinates in all of these color
+spaces are floating point values. In the YIQ space, the Y coordinate is between
+0 and 1, but the I and Q coordinates can be positive or negative. In all other
+spaces, the coordinates are all between 0 and 1.
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ More information about color spaces can be found at
+ http://www.poynton.com/ColorFAQ.html and
+ http://www.cambridgeincolour.com/tutorials/color-spaces.htm.
+
+The :mod:`colorsys` module defines the following functions:
+
+
+.. function:: rgb_to_yiq(r, g, b)
+
+ Convert the color from RGB coordinates to YIQ coordinates.
+
+
+.. function:: yiq_to_rgb(y, i, q)
+
+ Convert the color from YIQ coordinates to RGB coordinates.
+
+
+.. function:: rgb_to_hls(r, g, b)
+
+ Convert the color from RGB coordinates to HLS coordinates.
+
+
+.. function:: hls_to_rgb(h, l, s)

+ :deprecated:
+
+.. deprecated:: 2.6
+ The :mod:`commands` module has been removed in Python 3. Use the
+ :mod:`subprocess` module instead.
+
+.. sectionauthor:: Sue Williams <[email protected]>
+
+
+The :mod:`commands` module contains wrapper functions for :func:`os.popen` which
+take a system command as a string and return any output generated by the command
+and, optionally, the exit status.
+
+The :mod:`subprocess` module provides more powerful facilities for spawning new
+processes and retrieving their results. Using the :mod:`subprocess` module is
+preferable to using the :mod:`commands` module.
+
+.. note::
+
+ In Python 3.x, :func:`getstatus` and two undocumented functions
+ (:func:`mk2arg` and :func:`mkarg`) have been removed. Also,
+ :func:`getstatusoutput` and :func:`getoutput` have been moved to the
+ :mod:`subprocess` module.
+
+The :mod:`commands` module defines the following functions:
+
+
+.. function:: getstatusoutput(cmd)
+
+ Execute the string *cmd* in a shell with :func:`os.popen` and return a 2-tuple
+ ``(status, output)``. *cmd* is actually run as ``{ cmd ; } 2>&1``, so that the
+ returned output will contain output or error messages. A trailing newline is
+ stripped from the output. The exit status for the command can be interpreted
+ according to the rules for the C function :c:func:`wait`.
+
+
+.. function:: getoutput(cmd)
+
+ Like :func:`getstatusoutput`, except the exit status is ignored and the return
+ value is a string containing the command's output.
+
+
+.. function:: getstatus(file)
+
+ Return the output of ``ls -ld file`` as a string. This function uses the
+ :func:`getoutput` function, and properly escapes backslashes and dollar signs in

+:mod:`compileall` --- Byte-compile Python libraries
+===================================================
+
+.. module:: compileall
+ :synopsis: Tools for byte-compiling all Python source files in a directory tree.
+
+
+This module provides some utility functions to support installing Python
+libraries. These functions compile Python source files in a directory tree.
+This module can be used to create the cached byte-code files at library
+installation time, which makes them available for use even by users who don't
+have write permission to the library directories.
+
+
+Command-line use
+----------------
+
+This module can work as a script (using :program:`python -m compileall`) to
+compile Python sources.
+
+.. program:: compileall
+
+.. cmdoption:: [directory|file]...
+
+ Positional arguments are files to compile or directories that contain
+ source files, traversed recursively. If no argument is given, behave as if
+ the command line was ``-l <directories from sys.path>``.
+
+.. cmdoption:: -l
+
+ Do not recurse into subdirectories, only compile source code files directly
+ contained in the named or implied directories.
+
+.. cmdoption:: -f
+
+ Force rebuild even if timestamps are up-to-date.
+
+.. cmdoption:: -q
+
+ Do not print the list of files compiled, print only error messages.
+
+.. cmdoption:: -d destdir
+
+ Directory prepended to the path to each file being compiled. This will
+ appear in compilation time tracebacks, and is also compiled in to the
+ byte-code file, where it will be used in tracebacks and other messages in
+ cases where the source file does not exist at the time the byte-code file is
+ executed.
+
+.. cmdoption:: -x regex
+
+ regex is used to search the full path to each file considered for
+ compilation, and if the regex produces a match, the file is skipped.
+
+.. cmdoption:: -i list
+
+ Read the file ``list`` and add each line that it contains to the list of
+ files and directories to compile. If ``list`` is ``-``, read lines from
+ ``stdin``.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ Added the ``-i`` option.
+
+
+Public functions
+----------------
+
+.. function:: compile_dir(dir[, maxlevels[, ddir[, force[, rx[, quiet]]]]])
+
+ Recursively descend the directory tree named by *dir*, compiling all :file:`.py`
+ files along the way.
+
+ The *maxlevels* parameter is used to limit the depth of the recursion; it
+ defaults to ``10``.
+
+ If *ddir* is given, it is prepended to the path to each file being compiled
+ for use in compilation time tracebacks, and is also compiled in to the
+ byte-code file, where it will be used in tracebacks and other messages in
+ cases where the source file does not exist at the time the byte-code file is
+ executed.
+
+ If *force* is true, modules are re-compiled even if the timestamps are up to
+ date.
+
+ If *rx* is given, its search method is called on the complete path to each
+ file considered for compilation, and if it returns a true value, the file
+ is skipped.
+
+ If *quiet* is true, nothing is printed to the standard output unless errors
+ occur.
+
+
+.. function:: compile_file(fullname[, ddir[, force[, rx[, quiet]]]])
+
+ Compile the file with path *fullname*.
+
+ If *ddir* is given, it is prepended to the path to the file being compiled
+ for use in compilation time tracebacks, and is also compiled in to the
+ byte-code file, where it will be used in tracebacks and other messages in
+ cases where the source file does not exist at the time the byte-code file is
+ executed.
+
+ If *rx* is given, its search method is passed the full path name to the
+ file being compiled, and if it returns a true value, the file is not
+ compiled and ``True`` is returned.
+
+ If *quiet* is true, nothing is printed to the standard output unless errors
+ occur.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+.. function:: compile_path([skip_curdir[, maxlevels[, force]]])
+
+ Byte-compile all the :file:`.py` files found along ``sys.path``. If
+ *skip_curdir* is true (the default), the current directory is not included
+ in the search. All other parameters are passed to the :func:`compile_dir`
+ function. Note that unlike the other compile functions, ``maxlevels``
+ defaults to ``0``.
+
+To force a recompile of all the :file:`.py` files in the :file:`Lib/`
+subdirectory and all its subdirectories::
+
+ import compileall
+
+ compileall.compile_dir('Lib/', force=True)
+
+ # Perform same compilation, excluding files in .svn directories.
+ import re
+ compileall.compile_dir('Lib/', rx=re.compile(r'[/\\][.]svn'), force=True)
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ Module :mod:`py_compile`
+ Byte-compile a single source file.

+***********************
+Python compiler package
+***********************
+
+.. deprecated:: 2.6
+ The :mod:`compiler` package has been removed in Python 3.
+
+.. sectionauthor:: Jeremy Hylton <[email protected]>
+
+
+The Python compiler package is a tool for analyzing Python source code and
+generating Python bytecode. The compiler contains libraries to generate an
+abstract syntax tree from Python source code and to generate Python
+:term:`bytecode` from the tree.
+
+The :mod:`compiler` package is a Python source to bytecode translator written in
+Python. It uses the built-in parser and standard :mod:`parser` module to
+generate a concrete syntax tree. This tree is used to generate an abstract
+syntax tree (AST) and then Python bytecode.
+
+The full functionality of the package duplicates the built-in compiler provided
+with the Python interpreter. It is intended to match its behavior almost
+exactly. Why implement another compiler that does the same thing? The package
+is useful for a variety of purposes. It can be modified more easily than the
+built-in compiler. The AST it generates is useful for analyzing Python source
+code.
+
+This chapter explains how the various components of the :mod:`compiler` package
+work. It blends reference material with a tutorial.
+
+
+The basic interface
+===================
+
+.. module:: compiler
+ :synopsis: Python code compiler written in Python.
+ :deprecated:
+
+
+The top-level of the package defines four functions. If you import
+:mod:`compiler`, you will get these functions and a collection of modules
+contained in the package.
+
+
+.. function:: parse(buf)
+
+ Returns an abstract syntax tree for the Python source code in *buf*. The
+ function raises :exc:`SyntaxError` if there is an error in the source code. The
+ return value is a :class:`compiler.ast.Module` instance that contains the tree.
+
+
+.. function:: parseFile(path)
+
+ Return an abstract syntax tree for the Python source code in the file specified
+ by *path*. It is equivalent to ``parse(open(path).read())``.
+
+
+.. function:: walk(ast, visitor[, verbose])
+
+ Do a pre-order walk over the abstract syntax tree *ast*. Call the appropriate
+ method on the *visitor* instance for each node encountered.
+
+
+.. function:: compile(source, filename, mode, flags=None, dont_inherit=None)
+
+ Compile the string *source*, a Python module, statement or expression, into a
+ code object that can be executed by the exec statement or :func:`eval`. This
+ function is a replacement for the built-in :func:`compile` function.
+
+ The *filename* will be used for run-time error messages.
+
+ The *mode* must be 'exec' to compile a module, 'single' to compile a single
+ (interactive) statement, or 'eval' to compile an expression.
+
+ The *flags* and *dont_inherit* arguments affect future-related statements, but
+ are not supported yet.
+
+
+.. function:: compileFile(source)
+
+ Compiles the file *source* and generates a .pyc file.
+
+The :mod:`compiler` package contains the following modules: :mod:`ast`,
+:mod:`consts`, :mod:`future`, :mod:`misc`, :mod:`pyassem`, :mod:`pycodegen`,
+:mod:`symbols`, :mod:`transformer`, and :mod:`visitor`.
+
+
+Limitations
+===========
+
+There are some problems with the error checking of the compiler package. The
+interpreter detects syntax errors in two distinct phases. One set of errors is
+detected by the interpreter's parser, the other set by the compiler. The
+compiler package relies on the interpreter's parser, so it get the first phases
+of error checking for free. It implements the second phase itself, and that
+implementation is incomplete. For example, the compiler package does not raise
+an error if a name appears more than once in an argument list: ``def f(x, x):
+...``
+
+A future version of the compiler should fix these problems.
+
+
+Python Abstract Syntax
+======================
+
+The :mod:`compiler.ast` module defines an abstract syntax for Python. In the
+abstract syntax tree, each node represents a syntactic construct. The root of
+the tree is :class:`Module` object.
+
+The abstract syntax offers a higher level interface to parsed Python source
+code. The :mod:`parser` module and the compiler written in C for the Python
+interpreter use a concrete syntax tree. The concrete syntax is tied closely to
+the grammar description used for the Python parser. Instead of a single node
+for a construct, there are often several levels of nested nodes that are
+introduced by Python's precedence rules.
+
+The abstract syntax tree is created by the :mod:`compiler.transformer` module.
+The transformer relies on the built-in Python parser to generate a concrete
+syntax tree. It generates an abstract syntax tree from the concrete tree.
+
+.. index::
+ single: Stein, Greg
+ single: Tutt, Bill
+
+The :mod:`transformer` module was created by Greg Stein and Bill Tutt for an
+experimental Python-to-C compiler. The current version contains a number of
+modifications and improvements, but the basic form of the abstract syntax and of
+the transformer are due to Stein and Tutt.
+
+
+AST Nodes
+---------
+
+.. module:: compiler.ast
+
+
+The :mod:`compiler.ast` module is generated from a text file that describes each
+node type and its elements. Each node type is represented as a class that
+inherits from the abstract base class :class:`compiler.ast.Node` and defines a
+set of named attributes for child nodes.
+
+
+.. class:: Node()
+
+ The :class:`Node` instances are created automatically by the parser generator.
+ The recommended interface for specific :class:`Node` instances is to use the
+ public attributes to access child nodes. A public attribute may be bound to a
+ single node or to a sequence of nodes, depending on the :class:`Node` type. For
+ example, the :attr:`bases` attribute of the :class:`Class` node, is bound to a
+ list of base class nodes, and the :attr:`doc` attribute is bound to a single
+ node.
+
+ Each :class:`Node` instance has a :attr:`lineno` attribute which may be
+ ``None``. XXX Not sure what the rules are for which nodes will have a useful
+ lineno.
+
+ All :class:`Node` objects offer the following methods:
+
+
+ .. method:: getChildren()
+
+ Returns a flattened list of the child nodes and objects in the order they
+ occur. Specifically, the order of the nodes is the order in which they
+ appear in the Python grammar. Not all of the children are :class:`Node`
+ instances. The names of functions and classes, for example, are plain
+ strings.
+
+
+ .. method:: getChildNodes()
+
+ Returns a flattened list of the child nodes in the order they occur. This
+ method is like :meth:`getChildren`, except that it only returns those
+ children that are :class:`Node` instances.
+
+
+Two examples illustrate the general structure of :class:`Node` classes. The
+:keyword:`while` statement is defined by the following grammar production::
+
+ while_stmt: "while" expression ":" suite
+ ["else" ":" suite]
+
+The :class:`While` node has three attributes: :attr:`test`, :attr:`body`, and
+:attr:`else_`. (If the natural name for an attribute is also a Python reserved
+word, it can't be used as an attribute name. An underscore is appended to the
+word to make it a legal identifier, hence :attr:`else_` instead of
+:keyword:`else`.)
+
+The :keyword:`if` statement is more complicated because it can include several
+tests. ::
+
+ if_stmt: 'if' test ':' suite ('elif' test ':' suite)* ['else' ':' suite]
+
+The :class:`If` node only defines two attributes: :attr:`tests` and
+:attr:`else_`. The :attr:`tests` attribute is a sequence of test expression,
+consequent body pairs. There is one pair for each :keyword:`if`/:keyword:`elif`
+clause. The first element of the pair is the test expression. The second
+elements is a :class:`Stmt` node that contains the code to execute if the test
+is true.
+
+The :meth:`getChildren` method of :class:`If` returns a flat list of child
+nodes. If there are three :keyword:`if`/:keyword:`elif` clauses and no
+:keyword:`else` clause, then :meth:`getChildren` will return a list of six
+elements: the first test expression, the first :class:`Stmt`, the second text
+expression, etc.
+
+The following table lists each of the :class:`Node` subclasses defined in
+:mod:`compiler.ast` and each of the public attributes available on their
+instances. The values of most of the attributes are themselves :class:`Node`
+instances or sequences of instances. When the value is something other than an
+instance, the type is noted in the comment. The attributes are listed in the
+order in which they are returned by :meth:`getChildren` and
+:meth:`getChildNodes`.

+Assignment nodes
+----------------
+
+There is a collection of nodes used to represent assignments. Each assignment
+statement in the source code becomes a single :class:`Assign` node in the AST.
+The :attr:`nodes` attribute is a list that contains a node for each assignment
+target. This is necessary because assignment can be chained, e.g. ``a = b =
+2``. Each :class:`Node` in the list will be one of the following classes:
+:class:`AssAttr`, :class:`AssList`, :class:`AssName`, or :class:`AssTuple`.
+
+Each target assignment node will describe the kind of object being assigned to:
+:class:`AssName` for a simple name, e.g. ``a = 1``. :class:`AssAttr` for an
+attribute assigned, e.g. ``a.x = 1``. :class:`AssList` and :class:`AssTuple` for
+list and tuple expansion respectively, e.g. ``a, b, c = a_tuple``.
+
+The target assignment nodes also have a :attr:`flags` attribute that indicates
+whether the node is being used for assignment or in a delete statement. The
+:class:`AssName` is also used to represent a delete statement, e.g. :class:`del
+x`.
+
+When an expression contains several attribute references, an assignment or
+delete statement will contain only one :class:`AssAttr` node -- for the final
+attribute reference. The other attribute references will be represented as
+:class:`Getattr` nodes in the :attr:`expr` attribute of the :class:`AssAttr`
+instance.
+
+
+Examples
+--------
+
+This section shows several simple examples of ASTs for Python source code. The
+examples demonstrate how to use the :func:`parse` function, what the repr of an
+AST looks like, and how to access attributes of an AST node.
+
+The first module defines a single function. Assume it is stored in
+:file:`doublelib.py`. ::
+
+ """This is an example module.
+
+ This is the docstring.
+ """
+
+ def double(x):
+ "Return twice the argument"
+ return x * 2
+
+In the interactive interpreter session below, I have reformatted the long AST
+reprs for readability. The AST reprs use unqualified class names. If you want
+to create an instance from a repr, you must import the class names from the
+:mod:`compiler.ast` module. ::
+
+ >>> import compiler
+ >>> mod = compiler.parseFile("doublelib.py")
+ >>> mod
+ Module('This is an example module.\n\nThis is the docstring.\n',
+ Stmt([Function(None, 'double', ['x'], [], 0,
+ 'Return twice the argument',
+ Stmt([Return(Mul((Name('x'), Const(2))))]))]))
+ >>> from compiler.ast import *
+ >>> Module('This is an example module.\n\nThis is the docstring.\n',
+ ... Stmt([Function(None, 'double', ['x'], [], 0,
+ ... 'Return twice the argument',
+ ... Stmt([Return(Mul((Name('x'), Const(2))))]))]))
+ Module('This is an example module.\n\nThis is the docstring.\n',
+ Stmt([Function(None, 'double', ['x'], [], 0,
+ 'Return twice the argument',
+ Stmt([Return(Mul((Name('x'), Const(2))))]))]))
+ >>> mod.doc
+ 'This is an example module.\n\nThis is the docstring.\n'
+ >>> for node in mod.node.nodes:
+ ... print node
+ ...
+ Function(None, 'double', ['x'], [], 0, 'Return twice the argument',
+ Stmt([Return(Mul((Name('x'), Const(2))))]))
+ >>> func = mod.node.nodes[0]
+ >>> func.code
+ Stmt([Return(Mul((Name('x'), Const(2))))])
+
+
+Using Visitors to Walk ASTs
+===========================
+
+.. module:: compiler.visitor
+
+
+The visitor pattern is ... The :mod:`compiler` package uses a variant on the
+visitor pattern that takes advantage of Python's introspection features to
+eliminate the need for much of the visitor's infrastructure.
+
+The classes being visited do not need to be programmed to accept visitors. The
+visitor need only define visit methods for classes it is specifically interested
+in; a default visit method can handle the rest.
+
+XXX The magic :meth:`visit` method for visitors.
+
+
+.. function:: walk(tree, visitor[, verbose])
+
+
+.. class:: ASTVisitor()
+
+ The :class:`ASTVisitor` is responsible for walking over the tree in the correct
+ order. A walk begins with a call to :meth:`preorder`. For each node, it checks
+ the *visitor* argument to :meth:`preorder` for a method named 'visitNodeType,'
+ where NodeType is the name of the node's class, e.g. for a :class:`While` node a
+ :meth:`visitWhile` would be called. If the method exists, it is called with the
+ node as its first argument.
+
+ The visitor method for a particular node type can control how child nodes are
+ visited during the walk. The :class:`ASTVisitor` modifies the visitor argument
+ by adding a visit method to the visitor; this method can be used to visit a
+ particular child node. If no visitor is found for a particular node type, the
+ :meth:`default` method is called.
+
+ :class:`ASTVisitor` objects have the following methods:
+
+ XXX describe extra arguments
+
+
+ .. method:: default(node[, ...])
+
+
+ .. method:: dispatch(node[, ...])
+
+
+ .. method:: preorder(tree, visitor)
+
+
+Bytecode Generation
+===================
+
+The code generator is a visitor that emits bytecodes. Each visit method can
+call the :meth:`emit` method to emit a new bytecode. The basic code generator
+is specialized for modules, classes, and functions. An assembler converts that
+emitted instructions to the low-level bytecode format. It handles things like
+generation of constant lists of code objects and calculation of jump offsets.

+:mod:`ConfigParser` --- Configuration file parser
+=================================================
+
+.. module:: ConfigParser
+ :synopsis: Configuration file parser.
+
+.. moduleauthor:: Ken Manheimer <[email protected]>
+.. moduleauthor:: Barry Warsaw <[email protected]>
+.. moduleauthor:: Eric S. Raymond <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Christopher G. Petrilli <[email protected]>
+
+.. note::
+
+ The :mod:`ConfigParser` module has been renamed to :mod:`configparser` in
+ Python 3. The :term:`2to3` tool will automatically adapt imports when
+ converting your sources to Python 3.
+
+.. index::
+ pair: .ini; file
+ pair: configuration; file
+ single: ini file
+ single: Windows ini file
+
+This module defines the class :class:`ConfigParser`. The :class:`ConfigParser`
+class implements a basic configuration file parser language which provides a
+structure similar to what you would find on Microsoft Windows INI files. You
+can use this to write Python programs which can be customized by end users
+easily.
+
+.. note::
+
+ This library does *not* interpret or write the value-type prefixes used in
+ the Windows Registry extended version of INI syntax.
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ Module :mod:`shlex`
+ Support for a creating Unix shell-like mini-languages which can be used
+ as an alternate format for application configuration files.
+
+ Module :mod:`json`
+ The json module implements a subset of JavaScript syntax which can also
+ be used for this purpose.
+
+The configuration file consists of sections, led by a ``[section]`` header and
+followed by ``name: value`` entries, with continuations in the style of
+:rfc:`822` (see section 3.1.1, "LONG HEADER FIELDS"); ``name=value`` is also
+accepted. Note that leading whitespace is removed from values. The optional
+values can contain format strings which refer to other values in the same
+section, or values in a special ``DEFAULT`` section. Additional defaults can be
+provided on initialization and retrieval. Lines beginning with ``'#'`` or
+``';'`` are ignored and may be used to provide comments.
+
+Configuration files may include comments, prefixed by specific characters (``#``
+and ``;``). Comments may appear on their own in an otherwise empty line, or may
+be entered in lines holding values or section names. In the latter case, they
+need to be preceded by a whitespace character to be recognized as a comment.
+(For backwards compatibility, only ``;`` starts an inline comment, while ``#``
+does not.)
+
+On top of the core functionality, :class:`SafeConfigParser` supports
+interpolation. This means values can contain format strings which refer to
+other values in the same section, or values in a special ``DEFAULT`` section.
+Additional defaults can be provided on initialization.
+
+For example::
+
+ [My Section]
+ foodir: %(dir)s/whatever
+ dir=frob
+ long: this value continues
+ in the next line
+
+would resolve the ``%(dir)s`` to the value of ``dir`` (``frob`` in this case).
+All reference expansions are done on demand.
+
+Default values can be specified by passing them into the :class:`ConfigParser`
+constructor as a dictionary. Additional defaults may be passed into the
+:meth:`get` method which will override all others.
+
+Sections are normally stored in a built-in dictionary. An alternative dictionary
+type can be passed to the :class:`ConfigParser` constructor. For example, if a
+dictionary type is passed that sorts its keys, the sections will be sorted on
+write-back, as will be the keys within each section.
+
+
+.. class:: RawConfigParser([defaults[, dict_type[, allow_no_value]]])
+
+ The basic configuration object. When *defaults* is given, it is initialized
+ into the dictionary of intrinsic defaults. When *dict_type* is given, it will
+ be used to create the dictionary objects for the list of sections, for the
+ options within a section, and for the default values. When *allow_no_value*
+ is true (default: ``False``), options without values are accepted; the value
+ presented for these is ``None``.
+
+ This class does not
+ support the magical interpolation behavior.
+
+ All option names are passed through the :meth:`optionxform` method. Its
+ default implementation converts option names to lower case.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ *dict_type* was added.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ The default *dict_type* is :class:`collections.OrderedDict`.
+ *allow_no_value* was added.
+
+
+.. class:: ConfigParser([defaults[, dict_type[, allow_no_value]]])
+
+ Derived class of :class:`RawConfigParser` that implements the magical
+ interpolation feature and adds optional arguments to the :meth:`get` and
+ :meth:`items` methods. The values in *defaults* must be appropriate for the
+ ``%()s`` string interpolation. Note that *__name__* is an intrinsic default;
+ its value is the section name, and will override any value provided in
+ *defaults*.
+
+ All option names used in interpolation will be passed through the
+ :meth:`optionxform` method just like any other option name reference. Using
+ the default implementation of :meth:`optionxform`, the values ``foo %(bar)s``
+ and ``foo %(BAR)s`` are equivalent.

+
+ Derived class of :class:`ConfigParser` that implements a more-sane variant of
+ the magical interpolation feature. This implementation is more predictable as
+ well. New applications should prefer this version if they don't need to be
+ compatible with older versions of Python.

+
+RawConfigParser Objects
+-----------------------
+
+:class:`RawConfigParser` instances have the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: RawConfigParser.defaults()
+
+ Return a dictionary containing the instance-wide defaults.
+
+
+.. method:: RawConfigParser.sections()
+
+ Return a list of the sections available; ``DEFAULT`` is not included in the
+ list.
+
+
+.. method:: RawConfigParser.add_section(section)
+
+ Add a section named *section* to the instance. If a section by the given name
+ already exists, :exc:`DuplicateSectionError` is raised. If the name
+ ``DEFAULT`` (or any of it's case-insensitive variants) is passed,
+ :exc:`ValueError` is raised.
+
+.. method:: RawConfigParser.has_section(section)
+
+ Indicates whether the named section is present in the configuration. The
+ ``DEFAULT`` section is not acknowledged.
+
+
+.. method:: RawConfigParser.options(section)
+
+ Returns a list of options available in the specified *section*.
+
+
+.. method:: RawConfigParser.has_option(section, option)
+
+ If the given section exists, and contains the given option, return
+ :const:`True`; otherwise return :const:`False`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 1.6
+
+
+.. method:: RawConfigParser.read(filenames)
+
+ Attempt to read and parse a list of filenames, returning a list of filenames
+ which were successfully parsed. If *filenames* is a string or Unicode string,
+ it is treated as a single filename. If a file named in *filenames* cannot be
+ opened, that file will be ignored. This is designed so that you can specify a
+ list of potential configuration file locations (for example, the current
+ directory, the user's home directory, and some system-wide directory), and all
+ existing configuration files in the list will be read. If none of the named
+ files exist, the :class:`ConfigParser` instance will contain an empty dataset.
+ An application which requires initial values to be loaded from a file should
+ load the required file or files using :meth:`readfp` before calling :meth:`read`
+ for any optional files::
+
+ import ConfigParser, os
+
+ config = ConfigParser.ConfigParser()
+ config.readfp(open('defaults.cfg'))
+ config.read(['site.cfg', os.path.expanduser('~/.myapp.cfg')])
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ Returns list of successfully parsed filenames.
+
+
+.. method:: RawConfigParser.readfp(fp[, filename])
+
+ Read and parse configuration data from the file or file-like object in *fp*
+ (only the :meth:`readline` method is used). If *filename* is omitted and *fp*
+ has a :attr:`name` attribute, that is used for *filename*; the default is
+ ``<???>``.
+
+
+.. method:: RawConfigParser.get(section, option)
+
+ Get an *option* value for the named *section*.
+
+
+.. method:: RawConfigParser.getint(section, option)
+
+ A convenience method which coerces the *option* in the specified *section* to an
+ integer.
+
+
+.. method:: RawConfigParser.getfloat(section, option)
+
+ A convenience method which coerces the *option* in the specified *section* to a
+ floating point number.
+
+
+.. method:: RawConfigParser.getboolean(section, option)
+
+ A convenience method which coerces the *option* in the specified *section* to a
+ Boolean value. Note that the accepted values for the option are ``"1"``,
+ ``"yes"``, ``"true"``, and ``"on"``, which cause this method to return ``True``,
+ and ``"0"``, ``"no"``, ``"false"``, and ``"off"``, which cause it to return
+ ``False``. These string values are checked in a case-insensitive manner. Any
+ other value will cause it to raise :exc:`ValueError`.
+
+
+.. method:: RawConfigParser.items(section)
+
+ Return a list of ``(name, value)`` pairs for each option in the given *section*.
+
+
+.. method:: RawConfigParser.set(section, option, value)
+
+ If the given section exists, set the given option to the specified value;
+ otherwise raise :exc:`NoSectionError`. While it is possible to use
+ :class:`RawConfigParser` (or :class:`ConfigParser` with *raw* parameters set to
+ true) for *internal* storage of non-string values, full functionality (including
+ interpolation and output to files) can only be achieved using string values.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 1.6
+
+
+.. method:: RawConfigParser.write(fileobject)
+
+ Write a representation of the configuration to the specified file object. This
+ representation can be parsed by a future :meth:`read` call.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 1.6
+
+
+.. method:: RawConfigParser.remove_option(section, option)
+
+ Remove the specified *option* from the specified *section*. If the section does
+ not exist, raise :exc:`NoSectionError`. If the option existed to be removed,
+ return :const:`True`; otherwise return :const:`False`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 1.6
+
+
+.. method:: RawConfigParser.remove_section(section)
+
+ Remove the specified *section* from the configuration. If the section in fact
+ existed, return ``True``. Otherwise return ``False``.
+
+
+.. method:: RawConfigParser.optionxform(option)
+
+ Transforms the option name *option* as found in an input file or as passed in
+ by client code to the form that should be used in the internal structures.
+ The default implementation returns a lower-case version of *option*;
+ subclasses may override this or client code can set an attribute of this name
+ on instances to affect this behavior.
+
+ You don't necessarily need to subclass a ConfigParser to use this method, you
+ can also re-set it on an instance, to a function that takes a string
+ argument. Setting it to ``str``, for example, would make option names case
+ sensitive::
+
+ cfgparser = ConfigParser()
+ ...
+ cfgparser.optionxform = str
+
+ Note that when reading configuration files, whitespace around the
+ option names are stripped before :meth:`optionxform` is called.
+
+
+.. _configparser-objects:
+
+ConfigParser Objects
+--------------------
+
+The :class:`ConfigParser` class extends some methods of the
+:class:`RawConfigParser` interface, adding some optional arguments.
+
+
+.. method:: ConfigParser.get(section, option[, raw[, vars]])
+
+ Get an *option* value for the named *section*. If *vars* is provided, it
+ must be a dictionary. The *option* is looked up in *vars* (if provided),
+ *section*, and in *defaults* in that order.
+
+ All the ``'%'`` interpolations are expanded in the return values, unless the
+ *raw* argument is true. Values for interpolation keys are looked up in the
+ same manner as the option.
+
+.. method:: ConfigParser.items(section[, raw[, vars]])
+
+ Return a list of ``(name, value)`` pairs for each option in the given *section*.
+ Optional arguments have the same meaning as for the :meth:`get` method.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. _safeconfigparser-objects:
+
+SafeConfigParser Objects
+------------------------
+
+The :class:`SafeConfigParser` class implements the same extended interface as
+:class:`ConfigParser`, with the following addition:
+
+
+.. method:: SafeConfigParser.set(section, option, value)
+
+ If the given section exists, set the given option to the specified value;
+ otherwise raise :exc:`NoSectionError`. *value* must be a string (:class:`str`
+ or :class:`unicode`); if not, :exc:`TypeError` is raised.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+Examples
+--------
+
+An example of writing to a configuration file::
+
+ import ConfigParser
+
+ config = ConfigParser.RawConfigParser()
+
+ # When adding sections or items, add them in the reverse order of
+ # how you want them to be displayed in the actual file.
+ # In addition, please note that using RawConfigParser's and the raw
+ # mode of ConfigParser's respective set functions, you can assign
+ # non-string values to keys internally, but will receive an error
+ # when attempting to write to a file or when you get it in non-raw
+ # mode. SafeConfigParser does not allow such assignments to take place.
+ config.add_section('Section1')
+ config.set('Section1', 'an_int', '15')
+ config.set('Section1', 'a_bool', 'true')
+ config.set('Section1', 'a_float', '3.1415')
+ config.set('Section1', 'baz', 'fun')
+ config.set('Section1', 'bar', 'Python')
+ config.set('Section1', 'foo', '%(bar)s is %(baz)s!')
+
+ # Writing our configuration file to 'example.cfg'
+ with open('example.cfg', 'wb') as configfile:
+ config.write(configfile)
+
+An example of reading the configuration file again::
+
+ import ConfigParser
+
+ config = ConfigParser.RawConfigParser()
+ config.read('example.cfg')
+
+ # getfloat() raises an exception if the value is not a float
+ # getint() and getboolean() also do this for their respective types
+ a_float = config.getfloat('Section1', 'a_float')
+ an_int = config.getint('Section1', 'an_int')
+ print a_float + an_int
+
+ # Notice that the next output does not interpolate '%(bar)s' or '%(baz)s'.
+ # This is because we are using a RawConfigParser().
+ if config.getboolean('Section1', 'a_bool'):
+ print config.get('Section1', 'foo')
+
+To get interpolation, you will need to use a :class:`ConfigParser` or
+:class:`SafeConfigParser`::
+
+ import ConfigParser
+
+ config = ConfigParser.ConfigParser()
+ config.read('example.cfg')
+
+ # Set the third, optional argument of get to 1 if you wish to use raw mode.
+ print config.get('Section1', 'foo', 0) # -> "Python is fun!"
+ print config.get('Section1', 'foo', 1) # -> "%(bar)s is %(baz)s!"
+
+ # The optional fourth argument is a dict with members that will take
+ # precedence in interpolation.
+ print config.get('Section1', 'foo', 0, {'bar': 'Documentation',
+ 'baz': 'evil'})
+
+Defaults are available in all three types of ConfigParsers. They are used in
+interpolation if an option used is not defined elsewhere. ::
+
+ import ConfigParser
+
+ # New instance with 'bar' and 'baz' defaulting to 'Life' and 'hard' each
+ config = ConfigParser.SafeConfigParser({'bar': 'Life', 'baz': 'hard'})
+ config.read('example.cfg')
+
+ print config.get('Section1', 'foo') # -> "Python is fun!"
+ config.remove_option('Section1', 'bar')
+ config.remove_option('Section1', 'baz')
+ print config.get('Section1', 'foo') # -> "Life is hard!"
+
+The function ``opt_move`` below can be used to move options between sections::
+
+ def opt_move(config, section1, section2, option):
+ try:
+ config.set(section2, option, config.get(section1, option, 1))
+ except ConfigParser.NoSectionError:
+ # Create non-existent section
+ config.add_section(section2)
+ opt_move(config, section1, section2, option)
+ else:
+ config.remove_option(section1, option)
+
+Some configuration files are known to include settings without values, but which
+otherwise conform to the syntax supported by :mod:`ConfigParser`. The
+*allow_no_value* parameter to the constructor can be used to indicate that such
+values should be accepted:
+
+.. doctest::
+
+ >>> import ConfigParser
+ >>> import io
+
+ >>> sample_config = """
+ ... [mysqld]
+ ... user = mysql
+ ... pid-file = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid
+ ... skip-external-locking
+ ... old_passwords = 1
+ ... skip-bdb
+ ... skip-innodb
+ ... """
+ >>> config = ConfigParser.RawConfigParser(allow_no_value=True)
+ >>> config.readfp(io.BytesIO(sample_config))
+
+ >>> # Settings with values are treated as before:
+ >>> config.get("mysqld", "user")
+ 'mysql'
+
+ >>> # Settings without values provide None:
+ >>> config.get("mysqld", "skip-bdb")
+
+ >>> # Settings which aren't specified still raise an error:
+ >>> config.get("mysqld", "does-not-exist")
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ ...
+ ConfigParser.NoOptionError: No option 'does-not-exist' in section: 'mysqld'

+-----------------------------------------
+
+The :mod:`site` module (which is imported automatically during startup, except

+:mod:`contextlib` --- Utilities for :keyword:`with`\ -statement contexts
+========================================================================
+
+.. module:: contextlib
+ :synopsis: Utilities for with-statement contexts.
+
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/contextlib.py`
+
+--------------
+
+This module provides utilities for common tasks involving the :keyword:`with`
+statement. For more information see also :ref:`typecontextmanager` and
+:ref:`context-managers`.
+
+Functions provided:
+
+
+.. function:: contextmanager(func)
+
+ This function is a :term:`decorator` that can be used to define a factory
+ function for :keyword:`with` statement context managers, without needing to
+ create a class or separate :meth:`__enter__` and :meth:`__exit__` methods.
+
+ A simple example (this is not recommended as a real way of generating HTML!)::
+
+ from contextlib import contextmanager
+
+ @contextmanager
+ def tag(name):
+ print "<%s>" % name
+ yield
+ print "</%s>" % name
+
+ >>> with tag("h1"):
+ ... print "foo"
+ ...
+ <h1>
+ foo
+ </h1>
+
+ The function being decorated must return a :term:`generator`-iterator when
+ called. This iterator must yield exactly one value, which will be bound to
+ the targets in the :keyword:`with` statement's :keyword:`as` clause, if any.
+
+ At the point where the generator yields, the block nested in the :keyword:`with`
+ statement is executed. The generator is then resumed after the block is exited.
+ If an unhandled exception occurs in the block, it is reraised inside the
+ generator at the point where the yield occurred. Thus, you can use a
+ :keyword:`try`...\ :keyword:`except`...\ :keyword:`finally` statement to trap
+ the error (if any), or ensure that some cleanup takes place. If an exception is
+ trapped merely in order to log it or to perform some action (rather than to
+ suppress it entirely), the generator must reraise that exception. Otherwise the
+ generator context manager will indicate to the :keyword:`with` statement that
+ the exception has been handled, and execution will resume with the statement
+ immediately following the :keyword:`with` statement.
+
+
+.. function:: nested(mgr1[, mgr2[, ...]])
+
+ Combine multiple context managers into a single nested context manager.
+
+ This function has been deprecated in favour of the multiple manager form
+ of the :keyword:`with` statement.
+
+ The one advantage of this function over the multiple manager form of the
+ :keyword:`with` statement is that argument unpacking allows it to be
+ used with a variable number of context managers as follows::
+
+ from contextlib import nested
+
+ with nested(*managers):
+ do_something()
+
+ Note that if the :meth:`__exit__` method of one of the nested context managers
+ indicates an exception should be suppressed, no exception information will be
+ passed to any remaining outer context managers. Similarly, if the
+ :meth:`__exit__` method of one of the nested managers raises an exception, any
+ previous exception state will be lost; the new exception will be passed to the
+ :meth:`__exit__` methods of any remaining outer context managers. In general,
+ :meth:`__exit__` methods should avoid raising exceptions, and in particular they
+ should not re-raise a passed-in exception.
+
+ This function has two major quirks that have led to it being deprecated. Firstly,
+ as the context managers are all constructed before the function is invoked, the
+ :meth:`__new__` and :meth:`__init__` methods of the inner context managers are
+ not actually covered by the scope of the outer context managers. That means, for
+ example, that using :func:`nested` to open two files is a programming error as the
+ first file will not be closed promptly if an exception is thrown when opening
+ the second file.
+
+ Secondly, if the :meth:`__enter__` method of one of the inner context managers
+ raises an exception that is caught and suppressed by the :meth:`__exit__` method
+ of one of the outer context managers, this construct will raise
+ :exc:`RuntimeError` rather than skipping the body of the :keyword:`with`
+ statement.
+
+ Developers that need to support nesting of a variable number of context managers
+ can either use the :mod:`warnings` module to suppress the DeprecationWarning
+ raised by this function or else use this function as a model for an application
+ specific implementation.
+
+ .. deprecated:: 2.7
+ The with-statement now supports this functionality directly (without the
+ confusing error prone quirks).
+
+.. function:: closing(thing)
+
+ Return a context manager that closes *thing* upon completion of the block. This
+ is basically equivalent to::
+
+ from contextlib import contextmanager
+
+ @contextmanager
+ def closing(thing):
+ try:
+ yield thing
+ finally:
+ thing.close()
+
+ And lets you write code like this::
+
+ from contextlib import closing
+ import urllib
+
+ with closing(urllib.urlopen('http://www.python.org')) as page:
+ for line in page:
+ print line
+
+ without needing to explicitly close ``page``. Even if an error occurs,
+ ``page.close()`` will be called when the :keyword:`with` block is exited.
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ :pep:`0343` - The "with" statement
+ The specification, background, and examples for the Python :keyword:`with`
+ statement.

+:mod:`Cookie` --- HTTP state management
+=======================================
+
+.. module:: Cookie
+ :synopsis: Support for HTTP state management (cookies).
+.. moduleauthor:: Timothy O'Malley <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Moshe Zadka <[email protected]>
+
+.. note::
+ The :mod:`Cookie` module has been renamed to :mod:`http.cookies` in Python
+ 3. The :term:`2to3` tool will automatically adapt imports when converting
+ your sources to Python 3.
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/Cookie.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`Cookie` module defines classes for abstracting the concept of
+cookies, an HTTP state management mechanism. It supports both simple string-only
+cookies, and provides an abstraction for having any serializable data-type as
+cookie value.
+
+The module formerly strictly applied the parsing rules described in the
+:rfc:`2109` and :rfc:`2068` specifications. It has since been discovered that
+MSIE 3.0x doesn't follow the character rules outlined in those specs and also
+many current day browsers and servers have relaxed parsing rules when comes to
+Cookie handling. As a result, the parsing rules used are a bit less strict.
+
+The character set, :data:`string.ascii_letters`, :data:`string.digits` and
+``!#$%&'*+-.^_`|~`` denote the set of valid characters allowed by this module
+in Cookie name (as :attr:`~Morsel.key`).
+
+
+.. note::
+
+ On encountering an invalid cookie, :exc:`CookieError` is raised, so if your
+ cookie data comes from a browser you should always prepare for invalid data
+ and catch :exc:`CookieError` on parsing.
+
+
+.. exception:: CookieError
+
+ Exception failing because of :rfc:`2109` invalidity: incorrect attributes,
+ incorrect :mailheader:`Set-Cookie` header, etc.
+
+
+.. class:: BaseCookie([input])
+
+ This class is a dictionary-like object whose keys are strings and whose values
+ are :class:`Morsel` instances. Note that upon setting a key to a value, the
+ value is first converted to a :class:`Morsel` containing the key and the value.
+
+ If *input* is given, it is passed to the :meth:`load` method.
+
+
+.. class:: SimpleCookie([input])
+
+ This class derives from :class:`BaseCookie` and overrides :meth:`value_decode`
+ and :meth:`value_encode` to be the identity and :func:`str` respectively.
+
+
+.. class:: SerialCookie([input])
+
+ This class derives from :class:`BaseCookie` and overrides :meth:`value_decode`
+ and :meth:`value_encode` to be the :func:`pickle.loads` and
+ :func:`pickle.dumps`.
+
+ .. deprecated:: 2.3
+ Reading pickled values from untrusted cookie data is a huge security hole, as
+ pickle strings can be crafted to cause arbitrary code to execute on your server.
+ It is supported for backwards compatibility only, and may eventually go away.
+
+
+.. class:: SmartCookie([input])
+
+ This class derives from :class:`BaseCookie`. It overrides :meth:`value_decode`
+ to be :func:`pickle.loads` if it is a valid pickle, and otherwise the value
+ itself. It overrides :meth:`value_encode` to be :func:`pickle.dumps` unless it
+ is a string, in which case it returns the value itself.
+
+ .. deprecated:: 2.3
+ The same security warning from :class:`SerialCookie` applies here.
+
+A further security note is warranted. For backwards compatibility, the
+:mod:`Cookie` module exports a class named :class:`Cookie` which is just an
+alias for :class:`SmartCookie`. This is probably a mistake and will likely be
+removed in a future version. You should not use the :class:`Cookie` class in
+your applications, for the same reason why you should not use the
+:class:`SerialCookie` class.

+ This is the state management specification implemented by this module.
+
+
+.. _cookie-objects:
+
+Cookie Objects
+--------------
+
+
+.. method:: BaseCookie.value_decode(val)
+
+ Return a decoded value from a string representation. Return value can be any
+ type. This method does nothing in :class:`BaseCookie` --- it exists so it can be
+ overridden.
+
+
+.. method:: BaseCookie.value_encode(val)
+
+ Return an encoded value. *val* can be any type, but return value must be a
+ string. This method does nothing in :class:`BaseCookie` --- it exists so it can
+ be overridden
+
+ In general, it should be the case that :meth:`value_encode` and
+ :meth:`value_decode` are inverses on the range of *value_decode*.
+
+
+.. method:: BaseCookie.output([attrs[, header[, sep]]])
+
+ Return a string representation suitable to be sent as HTTP headers. *attrs* and
+ *header* are sent to each :class:`Morsel`'s :meth:`output` method. *sep* is used
+ to join the headers together, and is by default the combination ``'\r\n'``
+ (CRLF).
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ The default separator has been changed from ``'\n'`` to match the cookie
+ specification.
+
+
+.. method:: BaseCookie.js_output([attrs])
+
+ Return an embeddable JavaScript snippet, which, if run on a browser which
+ supports JavaScript, will act the same as if the HTTP headers was sent.
+
+ The meaning for *attrs* is the same as in :meth:`output`.
+
+
+.. method:: BaseCookie.load(rawdata)
+
+ If *rawdata* is a string, parse it as an ``HTTP_COOKIE`` and add the values
+ found there as :class:`Morsel`\ s. If it is a dictionary, it is equivalent to::
+
+ for k, v in rawdata.items():
+ cookie[k] = v
+
+
+.. _morsel-objects:
+
+Morsel Objects
+--------------
+
+
+.. class:: Morsel
+
+ Abstract a key/value pair, which has some :rfc:`2109` attributes.
+
+ Morsels are dictionary-like objects, whose set of keys is constant --- the valid
+ :rfc:`2109` attributes, which are
+
+ * ``expires``
+ * ``path``
+ * ``comment``
+ * ``domain``
+ * ``max-age``
+ * ``secure``
+ * ``version``
+ * ``httponly``
+
+ The attribute :attr:`httponly` specifies that the cookie is only transfered
+ in HTTP requests, and is not accessible through JavaScript. This is intended
+ to mitigate some forms of cross-site scripting.
+
+ The keys are case-insensitive.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+ The :attr:`httponly` attribute was added.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Morsel.value
+
+ The value of the cookie.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Morsel.coded_value
+
+ The encoded value of the cookie --- this is what should be sent.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Morsel.key
+
+ The name of the cookie.
+
+
+.. method:: Morsel.set(key, value, coded_value)
+
+ Set the *key*, *value* and *coded_value* attributes.
+
+
+.. method:: Morsel.isReservedKey(K)
+
+ Whether *K* is a member of the set of keys of a :class:`Morsel`.
+
+
+.. method:: Morsel.output([attrs[, header]])
+
+ Return a string representation of the Morsel, suitable to be sent as an HTTP
+ header. By default, all the attributes are included, unless *attrs* is given, in
+ which case it should be a list of attributes to use. *header* is by default
+ ``"Set-Cookie:"``.
+
+
+.. method:: Morsel.js_output([attrs])
+
+ Return an embeddable JavaScript snippet, which, if run on a browser which
+ supports JavaScript, will act the same as if the HTTP header was sent.
+
+ The meaning for *attrs* is the same as in :meth:`output`.
+
+
+.. method:: Morsel.OutputString([attrs])
+
+ Return a string representing the Morsel, without any surrounding HTTP or
+ JavaScript.
+
+ The meaning for *attrs* is the same as in :meth:`output`.

+:mod:`cookielib` --- Cookie handling for HTTP clients
+=====================================================
+
+.. module:: cookielib
+ :synopsis: Classes for automatic handling of HTTP cookies.
+.. moduleauthor:: John J. Lee <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: John J. Lee <[email protected]>
+
+.. note::
+ The :mod:`cookielib` module has been renamed to :mod:`http.cookiejar` in
+ Python 3. The :term:`2to3` tool will automatically adapt imports when
+ converting your sources to Python 3.
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/cookielib.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`cookielib` module defines classes for automatic handling of HTTP
+cookies. It is useful for accessing web sites that require small pieces of data
+-- :dfn:`cookies` -- to be set on the client machine by an HTTP response from a
+web server, and then returned to the server in later HTTP requests.
+
+Both the regular Netscape cookie protocol and the protocol defined by
+:rfc:`2965` are handled. RFC 2965 handling is switched off by default.
+:rfc:`2109` cookies are parsed as Netscape cookies and subsequently treated
+either as Netscape or RFC 2965 cookies according to the 'policy' in effect.
+Note that the great majority of cookies on the Internet are Netscape cookies.
+:mod:`cookielib` attempts to follow the de-facto Netscape cookie protocol (which
+differs substantially from that set out in the original Netscape specification),
+including taking note of the ``max-age`` and ``port`` cookie-attributes
+introduced with RFC 2965.
+
+.. note::
+
+ The various named parameters found in :mailheader:`Set-Cookie` and
+ :mailheader:`Set-Cookie2` headers (eg. ``domain`` and ``expires``) are
+ conventionally referred to as :dfn:`attributes`. To distinguish them from
+ Python attributes, the documentation for this module uses the term
+ :dfn:`cookie-attribute` instead.
+
+
+The module defines the following exception:
+
+
+.. exception:: LoadError
+
+ Instances of :class:`FileCookieJar` raise this exception on failure to load
+ cookies from a file.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ For backwards-compatibility with Python 2.4 (which raised an :exc:`IOError`),
+ :exc:`LoadError` is a subclass of :exc:`IOError`.
+
+
+The following classes are provided:
+
+
+.. class:: CookieJar(policy=None)
+
+ *policy* is an object implementing the :class:`CookiePolicy` interface.
+
+ The :class:`CookieJar` class stores HTTP cookies. It extracts cookies from HTTP
+ requests, and returns them in HTTP responses. :class:`CookieJar` instances
+ automatically expire contained cookies when necessary. Subclasses are also
+ responsible for storing and retrieving cookies from a file or database.
+
+
+.. class:: FileCookieJar(filename, delayload=None, policy=None)
+
+ *policy* is an object implementing the :class:`CookiePolicy` interface. For the
+ other arguments, see the documentation for the corresponding attributes.
+
+ A :class:`CookieJar` which can load cookies from, and perhaps save cookies to, a
+ file on disk. Cookies are **NOT** loaded from the named file until either the
+ :meth:`load` or :meth:`revert` method is called. Subclasses of this class are
+ documented in section :ref:`file-cookie-jar-classes`.
+
+
+.. class:: CookiePolicy()
+
+ This class is responsible for deciding whether each cookie should be accepted
+ from / returned to the server.
+
+
+.. class:: DefaultCookiePolicy( blocked_domains=None, allowed_domains=None, netscape=True, rfc2965=False, rfc2109_as_netscape=None, hide_cookie2=False, strict_domain=False, strict_rfc2965_unverifiable=True, strict_ns_unverifiable=False, strict_ns_domain=DefaultCookiePolicy.DomainLiberal, strict_ns_set_initial_dollar=False, strict_ns_set_path=False )
+
+ Constructor arguments should be passed as keyword arguments only.
+ *blocked_domains* is a sequence of domain names that we never accept cookies
+ from, nor return cookies to. *allowed_domains* if not :const:`None`, this is a
+ sequence of the only domains for which we accept and return cookies. For all
+ other arguments, see the documentation for :class:`CookiePolicy` and
+ :class:`DefaultCookiePolicy` objects.
+
+ :class:`DefaultCookiePolicy` implements the standard accept / reject rules for
+ Netscape and RFC 2965 cookies. By default, RFC 2109 cookies (ie. cookies
+ received in a :mailheader:`Set-Cookie` header with a version cookie-attribute of
+ 1) are treated according to the RFC 2965 rules. However, if RFC 2965 handling
+ is turned off or :attr:`rfc2109_as_netscape` is True, RFC 2109 cookies are
+ 'downgraded' by the :class:`CookieJar` instance to Netscape cookies, by
+ setting the :attr:`version` attribute of the :class:`Cookie` instance to 0.
+ :class:`DefaultCookiePolicy` also provides some parameters to allow some
+ fine-tuning of policy.
+
+
+.. class:: Cookie()
+
+ This class represents Netscape, RFC 2109 and RFC 2965 cookies. It is not
+ expected that users of :mod:`cookielib` construct their own :class:`Cookie`
+ instances. Instead, if necessary, call :meth:`make_cookies` on a
+ :class:`CookieJar` instance.
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ Module :mod:`urllib2`
+ URL opening with automatic cookie handling.
+
+ Module :mod:`Cookie`
+ HTTP cookie classes, principally useful for server-side code. The
+ :mod:`cookielib` and :mod:`Cookie` modules do not depend on each other.
+
+ http://wp.netscape.com/newsref/std/cookie_spec.html
+ The specification of the original Netscape cookie protocol. Though this is
+ still the dominant protocol, the 'Netscape cookie protocol' implemented by all
+ the major browsers (and :mod:`cookielib`) only bears a passing resemblance to
+ the one sketched out in ``cookie_spec.html``.
+
+ :rfc:`2109` - HTTP State Management Mechanism
+ Obsoleted by RFC 2965. Uses :mailheader:`Set-Cookie` with version=1.

+
+.. _cookie-jar-objects:
+
+CookieJar and FileCookieJar Objects
+-----------------------------------
+
+:class:`CookieJar` objects support the :term:`iterator` protocol for iterating over
+contained :class:`Cookie` objects.
+
+:class:`CookieJar` has the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: CookieJar.add_cookie_header(request)
+
+ Add correct :mailheader:`Cookie` header to *request*.
+
+ If policy allows (ie. the :attr:`rfc2965` and :attr:`hide_cookie2` attributes of
+ the :class:`CookieJar`'s :class:`CookiePolicy` instance are true and false
+ respectively), the :mailheader:`Cookie2` header is also added when appropriate.
+
+ The *request* object (usually a :class:`urllib2.Request` instance) must support
+ the methods :meth:`get_full_url`, :meth:`get_host`, :meth:`get_type`,
+ :meth:`unverifiable`, :meth:`get_origin_req_host`, :meth:`has_header`,
+ :meth:`get_header`, :meth:`header_items`, and :meth:`add_unredirected_header`,as
+ documented by :mod:`urllib2`.
+
+
+.. method:: CookieJar.extract_cookies(response, request)
+
+ Extract cookies from HTTP *response* and store them in the :class:`CookieJar`,
+ where allowed by policy.
+
+ The :class:`CookieJar` will look for allowable :mailheader:`Set-Cookie` and
+ :mailheader:`Set-Cookie2` headers in the *response* argument, and store cookies
+ as appropriate (subject to the :meth:`CookiePolicy.set_ok` method's approval).
+
+ The *response* object (usually the result of a call to :meth:`urllib2.urlopen`,
+ or similar) should support an :meth:`info` method, which returns an object with
+ a :meth:`getallmatchingheaders` method (usually a :class:`mimetools.Message`
+ instance).
+
+ The *request* object (usually a :class:`urllib2.Request` instance) must support
+ the methods :meth:`get_full_url`, :meth:`get_host`, :meth:`unverifiable`, and
+ :meth:`get_origin_req_host`, as documented by :mod:`urllib2`. The request is
+ used to set default values for cookie-attributes as well as for checking that
+ the cookie is allowed to be set.
+
+
+.. method:: CookieJar.set_policy(policy)
+
+ Set the :class:`CookiePolicy` instance to be used.
+
+
+.. method:: CookieJar.make_cookies(response, request)
+
+ Return sequence of :class:`Cookie` objects extracted from *response* object.
+
+ See the documentation for :meth:`extract_cookies` for the interfaces required of
+ the *response* and *request* arguments.
+
+
+.. method:: CookieJar.set_cookie_if_ok(cookie, request)
+
+ Set a :class:`Cookie` if policy says it's OK to do so.
+
+
+.. method:: CookieJar.set_cookie(cookie)
+
+ Set a :class:`Cookie`, without checking with policy to see whether or not it
+ should be set.
+
+
+.. method:: CookieJar.clear([domain[, path[, name]]])
+
+ Clear some cookies.
+
+ If invoked without arguments, clear all cookies. If given a single argument,
+ only cookies belonging to that *domain* will be removed. If given two arguments,
+ cookies belonging to the specified *domain* and URL *path* are removed. If
+ given three arguments, then the cookie with the specified *domain*, *path* and
+ *name* is removed.
+
+ Raises :exc:`KeyError` if no matching cookie exists.
+
+
+.. method:: CookieJar.clear_session_cookies()
+
+ Discard all session cookies.
+
+ Discards all contained cookies that have a true :attr:`discard` attribute
+ (usually because they had either no ``max-age`` or ``expires`` cookie-attribute,
+ or an explicit ``discard`` cookie-attribute). For interactive browsers, the end
+ of a session usually corresponds to closing the browser window.
+
+ Note that the :meth:`save` method won't save session cookies anyway, unless you
+ ask otherwise by passing a true *ignore_discard* argument.
+
+:class:`FileCookieJar` implements the following additional methods:
+
+
+.. method:: FileCookieJar.save(filename=None, ignore_discard=False, ignore_expires=False)
+
+ Save cookies to a file.
+
+ This base class raises :exc:`NotImplementedError`. Subclasses may leave this
+ method unimplemented.
+
+ *filename* is the name of file in which to save cookies. If *filename* is not
+ specified, :attr:`self.filename` is used (whose default is the value passed to
+ the constructor, if any); if :attr:`self.filename` is :const:`None`,
+ :exc:`ValueError` is raised.
+
+ *ignore_discard*: save even cookies set to be discarded. *ignore_expires*: save
+ even cookies that have expired
+
+ The file is overwritten if it already exists, thus wiping all the cookies it
+ contains. Saved cookies can be restored later using the :meth:`load` or
+ :meth:`revert` methods.
+
+
+.. method:: FileCookieJar.load(filename=None, ignore_discard=False, ignore_expires=False)
+
+ Load cookies from a file.
+
+ Old cookies are kept unless overwritten by newly loaded ones.
+
+ Arguments are as for :meth:`save`.
+
+ The named file must be in the format understood by the class, or
+ :exc:`LoadError` will be raised. Also, :exc:`IOError` may be raised, for
+ example if the file does not exist.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ For backwards-compatibility with Python 2.4 (which raised an :exc:`IOError`),
+ :exc:`LoadError` is a subclass of :exc:`IOError`.
+
+
+.. method:: FileCookieJar.revert(filename=None, ignore_discard=False, ignore_expires=False)
+
+ Clear all cookies and reload cookies from a saved file.
+
+ :meth:`revert` can raise the same exceptions as :meth:`load`. If there is a
+ failure, the object's state will not be altered.
+
+:class:`FileCookieJar` instances have the following public attributes:
+
+
+.. attribute:: FileCookieJar.filename
+
+ Filename of default file in which to keep cookies. This attribute may be
+ assigned to.
+
+
+.. attribute:: FileCookieJar.delayload
+
+ If true, load cookies lazily from disk. This attribute should not be assigned
+ to. This is only a hint, since this only affects performance, not behaviour
+ (unless the cookies on disk are changing). A :class:`CookieJar` object may
+ ignore it. None of the :class:`FileCookieJar` classes included in the standard
+ library lazily loads cookies.
+
+
+.. _file-cookie-jar-classes:
+
+FileCookieJar subclasses and co-operation with web browsers
+-----------------------------------------------------------
+
+The following :class:`CookieJar` subclasses are provided for reading and
+writing .
+
+.. class:: MozillaCookieJar(filename, delayload=None, policy=None)
+
+ A :class:`FileCookieJar` that can load from and save cookies to disk in the
+ Mozilla ``cookies.txt`` file format (which is also used by the Lynx and Netscape
+ browsers).
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Version 3 of the Firefox web browser no longer writes cookies in the
+ ``cookies.txt`` file format.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ This loses information about RFC 2965 cookies, and also about newer or
+ non-standard cookie-attributes such as ``port``.
+
+ .. warning::
+
+ Back up your cookies before saving if you have cookies whose loss / corruption
+ would be inconvenient (there are some subtleties which may lead to slight
+ changes in the file over a load / save round-trip).
+
+ Also note that cookies saved while Mozilla is running will get clobbered by
+ Mozilla.
+
+
+.. class:: LWPCookieJar(filename, delayload=None, policy=None)
+
+ A :class:`FileCookieJar` that can load from and save cookies to disk in format
+ compatible with the libwww-perl library's ``Set-Cookie3`` file format. This is
+ convenient if you want to store cookies in a human-readable file.
+
+
+.. _cookie-policy-objects:
+
+CookiePolicy Objects
+--------------------
+
+Objects implementing the :class:`CookiePolicy` interface have the following
+methods:
+
+
+.. method:: CookiePolicy.set_ok(cookie, request)
+
+ Return boolean value indicating whether cookie should be accepted from server.
+
+ *cookie* is a :class:`cookielib.Cookie` instance. *request* is an object
+ implementing the interface defined by the documentation for
+ :meth:`CookieJar.extract_cookies`.
+
+
+.. method:: CookiePolicy.return_ok(cookie, request)
+
+ Return boolean value indicating whether cookie should be returned to server.
+
+ *cookie* is a :class:`cookielib.Cookie` instance. *request* is an object
+ implementing the interface defined by the documentation for
+ :meth:`CookieJar.add_cookie_header`.
+
+
+.. method:: CookiePolicy.domain_return_ok(domain, request)
+
+ Return false if cookies should not be returned, given cookie domain.
+
+ This method is an optimization. It removes the need for checking every cookie
+ with a particular domain (which might involve reading many files). Returning
+ true from :meth:`domain_return_ok` and :meth:`path_return_ok` leaves all the
+ work to :meth:`return_ok`.
+
+ If :meth:`domain_return_ok` returns true for the cookie domain,
+ :meth:`path_return_ok` is called for the cookie path. Otherwise,
+ :meth:`path_return_ok` and :meth:`return_ok` are never called for that cookie
+ domain. If :meth:`path_return_ok` returns true, :meth:`return_ok` is called
+ with the :class:`Cookie` object itself for a full check. Otherwise,
+ :meth:`return_ok` is never called for that cookie path.
+
+ Note that :meth:`domain_return_ok` is called for every *cookie* domain, not just
+ for the *request* domain. For example, the function might be called with both
+ ``".example.com"`` and ``"www.example.com"`` if the request domain is
+ ``"www.example.com"``. The same goes for :meth:`path_return_ok`.
+
+ The *request* argument is as documented for :meth:`return_ok`.
+
+
+.. method:: CookiePolicy.path_return_ok(path, request)
+
+ Return false if cookies should not be returned, given cookie path.
+
+ See the documentation for :meth:`domain_return_ok`.
+
+In addition to implementing the methods above, implementations of the
+:class:`CookiePolicy` interface must also supply the following attributes,
+indicating which protocols should be used, and how. All of these attributes may
+be assigned to.
+
+
+.. attribute:: CookiePolicy.netscape
+
+ Implement Netscape protocol.
+
+
+.. attribute:: CookiePolicy.rfc2965
+
+ Implement RFC 2965 protocol.
+
+
+.. attribute:: CookiePolicy.hide_cookie2
+
+ Don't add :mailheader:`Cookie2` header to requests (the presence of this header
+ indicates to the server that we understand RFC 2965 cookies).
+
+The most useful way to define a :class:`CookiePolicy` class is by subclassing
+from :class:`DefaultCookiePolicy` and overriding some or all of the methods
+above. :class:`CookiePolicy` itself may be used as a 'null policy' to allow
+setting and receiving any and all cookies (this is unlikely to be useful).
+
+
+.. _default-cookie-policy-objects:
+
+DefaultCookiePolicy Objects
+---------------------------
+
+Implements the standard rules for accepting and returning cookies.
+
+Both RFC 2965 and Netscape cookies are covered. RFC 2965 handling is switched
+off by default.
+
+The easiest way to provide your own policy is to override this class and call
+its methods in your overridden implementations before adding your own additional
+checks::
+
+ import cookielib
+ class MyCookiePolicy(cookielib.DefaultCookiePolicy):
+ def set_ok(self, cookie, request):
+ if not cookielib.DefaultCookiePolicy.set_ok(self, cookie, request):
+ return False
+ if i_dont_want_to_store_this_cookie(cookie):
+ return False
+ return True
+
+In addition to the features required to implement the :class:`CookiePolicy`
+interface, this class allows you to block and allow domains from setting and
+receiving cookies. There are also some strictness switches that allow you to
+tighten up the rather loose Netscape protocol rules a little bit (at the cost of
+blocking some benign cookies).
+
+A domain blacklist and whitelist is provided (both off by default). Only domains
+not in the blacklist and present in the whitelist (if the whitelist is active)
+participate in cookie setting and returning. Use the *blocked_domains*
+constructor argument, and :meth:`blocked_domains` and
+:meth:`set_blocked_domains` methods (and the corresponding argument and methods
+for *allowed_domains*). If you set a whitelist, you can turn it off again by
+setting it to :const:`None`.
+
+Domains in block or allow lists that do not start with a dot must equal the
+cookie domain to be matched. For example, ``"example.com"`` matches a blacklist
+entry of ``"example.com"``, but ``"www.example.com"`` does not. Domains that do
+start with a dot are matched by more specific domains too. For example, both
+``"www.example.com"`` and ``"www.coyote.example.com"`` match ``".example.com"``
+(but ``"example.com"`` itself does not). IP addresses are an exception, and
+must match exactly. For example, if blocked_domains contains ``"192.168.1.2"``
+and ``".168.1.2"``, 192.168.1.2 is blocked, but 193.168.1.2 is not.
+
+:class:`DefaultCookiePolicy` implements the following additional methods:
+
+
+.. method:: DefaultCookiePolicy.blocked_domains()
+
+ Return the sequence of blocked domains (as a tuple).
+
+
+.. method:: DefaultCookiePolicy.set_blocked_domains(blocked_domains)
+
+ Set the sequence of blocked domains.
+
+
+.. method:: DefaultCookiePolicy.is_blocked(domain)
+
+ Return whether *domain* is on the blacklist for setting or receiving cookies.
+
+
+.. method:: DefaultCookiePolicy.allowed_domains()
+
+ Return :const:`None`, or the sequence of allowed domains (as a tuple).
+
+
+.. method:: DefaultCookiePolicy.set_allowed_domains(allowed_domains)
+
+ Set the sequence of allowed domains, or :const:`None`.
+
+
+.. method:: DefaultCookiePolicy.is_not_allowed(domain)
+
+ Return whether *domain* is not on the whitelist for setting or receiving
+ cookies.
+
+:class:`DefaultCookiePolicy` instances have the following attributes, which are
+all initialised from the constructor arguments of the same name, and which may
+all be assigned to.
+
+
+.. attribute:: DefaultCookiePolicy.rfc2109_as_netscape
+
+ If true, request that the :class:`CookieJar` instance downgrade RFC 2109 cookies
+ (ie. cookies received in a :mailheader:`Set-Cookie` header with a version
+ cookie-attribute of 1) to Netscape cookies by setting the version attribute of
+ the :class:`Cookie` instance to 0. The default value is :const:`None`, in which
+ case RFC 2109 cookies are downgraded if and only if RFC 2965 handling is turned
+ off. Therefore, RFC 2109 cookies are downgraded by default.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+General strictness switches:
+
+
+.. attribute:: DefaultCookiePolicy.strict_domain
+
+ Don't allow sites to set two-component domains with country-code top-level
+ domains like ``.co.uk``, ``.gov.uk``, ``.co.nz``.etc. This is far from perfect
+ and isn't guaranteed to work!
+
+RFC 2965 protocol strictness switches:
+
+
+.. attribute:: DefaultCookiePolicy.strict_rfc2965_unverifiable
+
+ Follow RFC 2965 rules on unverifiable transactions (usually, an unverifiable
+ transaction is one resulting from a redirect or a request for an image hosted on
+ another site). If this is false, cookies are *never* blocked on the basis of
+ verifiability
+
+Netscape protocol strictness switches:
+
+
+.. attribute:: DefaultCookiePolicy.strict_ns_unverifiable
+
+ apply RFC 2965 rules on unverifiable transactions even to Netscape cookies
+
+
+.. attribute:: DefaultCookiePolicy.strict_ns_domain
+
+ Flags indicating how strict to be with domain-matching rules for Netscape
+ cookies. See below for acceptable values.
+
+
+.. attribute:: DefaultCookiePolicy.strict_ns_set_initial_dollar
+
+ Ignore cookies in Set-Cookie: headers that have names starting with ``'$'``.
+
+
+.. attribute:: DefaultCookiePolicy.strict_ns_set_path
+
+ Don't allow setting cookies whose path doesn't path-match request URI.
+
+:attr:`strict_ns_domain` is a collection of flags. Its value is constructed by
+or-ing together (for example, ``DomainStrictNoDots|DomainStrictNonDomain`` means
+both flags are set).
+
+
+.. attribute:: DefaultCookiePolicy.DomainStrictNoDots
+
+ When setting cookies, the 'host prefix' must not contain a dot (eg.
+ ``www.foo.bar.com`` can't set a cookie for ``.bar.com``, because ``www.foo``
+ contains a dot).
+
+
+.. attribute:: DefaultCookiePolicy.DomainStrictNonDomain
+
+ Cookies that did not explicitly specify a ``domain`` cookie-attribute can only
+ be returned to a domain equal to the domain that set the cookie (eg.
+ ``spam.example.com`` won't be returned cookies from ``example.com`` that had no
+ ``domain`` cookie-attribute).
+
+
+.. attribute:: DefaultCookiePolicy.DomainRFC2965Match
+
+ When setting cookies, require a full RFC 2965 domain-match.
+
+The following attributes are provided for convenience, and are the most useful
+combinations of the above flags:
+
+
+.. attribute:: DefaultCookiePolicy.DomainLiberal
+
+ Equivalent to 0 (ie. all of the above Netscape domain strictness flags switched
+ off).
+
+
+.. attribute:: DefaultCookiePolicy.DomainStrict
+
+ Equivalent to ``DomainStrictNoDots|DomainStrictNonDomain``.
+
+
+.. _cookielib-cookie-objects:
+
+Cookie Objects
+--------------
+
+:class:`Cookie` instances have Python attributes roughly corresponding to the
+standard cookie-attributes specified in the various cookie standards. The
+correspondence is not one-to-one, because there are complicated rules for
+assigning default values, because the ``max-age`` and ``expires``
+cookie-attributes contain equivalent information, and because RFC 2109 cookies
+may be 'downgraded' by :mod:`cookielib` from version 1 to version 0 (Netscape)
+cookies.
+
+Assignment to these attributes should not be necessary other than in rare
+circumstances in a :class:`CookiePolicy` method. The class does not enforce
+internal consistency, so you should know what you're doing if you do that.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Cookie.version
+
+ Integer or :const:`None`. Netscape cookies have :attr:`version` 0. RFC 2965 and
+ RFC 2109 cookies have a ``version`` cookie-attribute of 1. However, note that
+ :mod:`cookielib` may 'downgrade' RFC 2109 cookies to Netscape cookies, in which
+ case :attr:`version` is 0.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Cookie.name
+
+ Cookie name (a string).
+
+
+.. attribute:: Cookie.value
+
+ Cookie value (a string), or :const:`None`.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Cookie.port
+
+ String representing a port or a set of ports (eg. '80', or '80,8080'), or
+ :const:`None`.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Cookie.path
+
+ Cookie path (a string, eg. ``'/acme/rocket_launchers'``).
+
+
+.. attribute:: Cookie.secure
+
+ True if cookie should only be returned over a secure connection.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Cookie.expires
+
+ Integer expiry date in seconds since epoch, or :const:`None`. See also the
+ :meth:`is_expired` method.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Cookie.discard
+
+ True if this is a session cookie.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Cookie.comment
+
+ String comment from the server explaining the function of this cookie, or
+ :const:`None`.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Cookie.comment_url
+
+ URL linking to a comment from the server explaining the function of this cookie,
+ or :const:`None`.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Cookie.rfc2109
+
+ True if this cookie was received as an RFC 2109 cookie (ie. the cookie
+ arrived in a :mailheader:`Set-Cookie` header, and the value of the Version
+ cookie-attribute in that header was 1). This attribute is provided because
+ :mod:`cookielib` may 'downgrade' RFC 2109 cookies to Netscape cookies, in
+ which case :attr:`version` is 0.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. attribute:: Cookie.port_specified
+
+ True if a port or set of ports was explicitly specified by the server (in the
+ :mailheader:`Set-Cookie` / :mailheader:`Set-Cookie2` header).
+
+
+.. attribute:: Cookie.domain_specified
+
+ True if a domain was explicitly specified by the server.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Cookie.domain_initial_dot
+
+ True if the domain explicitly specified by the server began with a dot
+ (``'.'``).
+
+Cookies may have additional non-standard cookie-attributes. These may be
+accessed using the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: Cookie.has_nonstandard_attr(name)
+
+ Return true if cookie has the named cookie-attribute.
+
+
+.. method:: Cookie.get_nonstandard_attr(name, default=None)
+
+ If cookie has the named cookie-attribute, return its value. Otherwise, return
+ *default*.
+
+
+.. method:: Cookie.set_nonstandard_attr(name, value)
+
+ Set the value of the named cookie-attribute.
+
+The :class:`Cookie` class also defines the following method:
+
+
+.. method:: Cookie.is_expired([now=None])
+
+ True if cookie has passed the time at which the server requested it should
+ expire. If *now* is given (in seconds since the epoch), return whether the
+ cookie has expired at the specified time.
+
+
+.. _cookielib-examples:
+
+Examples
+--------
+
+The first example shows the most common usage of :mod:`cookielib`::
+
+ import cookielib, urllib2
+ cj = cookielib.CookieJar()
+ opener = urllib2.build_opener(urllib2.HTTPCookieProcessor(cj))
+ r = opener.open("http://example.com/")
+
+This example illustrates how to open a URL using your Netscape, Mozilla, or Lynx
+cookies (assumes Unix/Netscape convention for location of the cookies file)::
+
+ import os, cookielib, urllib2
+ cj = cookielib.MozillaCookieJar()
+ cj.load(os.path.join(os.path.expanduser("~"), ".netscape", "cookies.txt"))
+ opener = urllib2.build_opener(urllib2.HTTPCookieProcessor(cj))
+ r = opener.open("http://example.com/")
+
+The next example illustrates the use of :class:`DefaultCookiePolicy`. Turn on
+RFC 2965 cookies, be more strict about domains when setting and returning
+Netscape cookies, and block some domains from setting cookies or having them
+returned::
+
+ import urllib2
+ from cookielib import CookieJar, DefaultCookiePolicy
+ policy = DefaultCookiePolicy(
+ rfc2965=True, strict_ns_domain=DefaultCookiePolicy.DomainStrict,
+ blocked_domains=["ads.net", ".ads.net"])
+ cj = CookieJar(policy)
+ opener = urllib2.build_opener(urllib2.HTTPCookieProcessor(cj))
+ r = opener.open("http://example.com/")

+:mod:`copy` --- Shallow and deep copy operations
+================================================
+
+.. module:: copy
+ :synopsis: Shallow and deep copy operations.
+
+Assignment statements in Python do not copy objects, they create bindings
+between a target and an object. For collections that are mutable or contain
+mutable items, a copy is sometimes needed so one can change one copy without
+changing the other. This module provides generic shallow and deep copy
+operations (explained below).
+
+
+Interface summary:
+
+.. function:: copy(x)
+
+ Return a shallow copy of *x*.
+
+
+.. function:: deepcopy(x)
+
+ Return a deep copy of *x*.
+
+
+.. exception:: error
+
+ Raised for module specific errors.
+
+
+The difference between shallow and deep copying is only relevant for compound
+objects (objects that contain other objects, like lists or class instances):
+
+* A *shallow copy* constructs a new compound object and then (to the extent
+ possible) inserts *references* into it to the objects found in the original.
+
+* A *deep copy* constructs a new compound object and then, recursively, inserts
+ *copies* into it of the objects found in the original.
+
+Two problems often exist with deep copy operations that don't exist with shallow
+copy operations:
+
+* Recursive objects (compound objects that, directly or indirectly, contain a
+ reference to themselves) may cause a recursive loop.
+
+* Because deep copy copies *everything* it may copy too much, e.g.,
+ administrative data structures that should be shared even between copies.
+
+The :func:`deepcopy` function avoids these problems by:
+
+* keeping a "memo" dictionary of objects already copied during the current
+ copying pass; and
+
+* letting user-defined classes override the copying operation or the set of
+ components copied.
+
+This module does not copy types like module, method, stack trace, stack frame,
+file, socket, window, array, or any similar types. It does "copy" functions and
+classes (shallow and deeply), by returning the original object unchanged; this
+is compatible with the way these are treated by the :mod:`pickle` module.
+
+Shallow copies of dictionaries can be made using :meth:`dict.copy`, and
+of lists by assigning a slice of the entire list, for example,
+``copied_list = original_list[:]``.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ Added copying functions.
+
+.. index:: module: pickle
+
+Classes can use the same interfaces to control copying that they use to control
+pickling. See the description of module :mod:`pickle` for information on these
+methods. The :mod:`copy` module does not use the :mod:`copy_reg` registration
+module.
+
+.. index::
+ single: __copy__() (copy protocol)
+ single: __deepcopy__() (copy protocol)
+
+In order for a class to define its own copy implementation, it can define
+special methods :meth:`__copy__` and :meth:`__deepcopy__`. The former is called
+to implement the shallow copy operation; no additional arguments are passed.
+The latter is called to implement the deep copy operation; it is passed one
+argument, the memo dictionary. If the :meth:`__deepcopy__` implementation needs
+to make a deep copy of a component, it should call the :func:`deepcopy` function
+with the component as first argument and the memo dictionary as second argument.

+:mod:`copy_reg` --- Register :mod:`pickle` support functions
+============================================================
+
+.. module:: copy_reg
+ :synopsis: Register pickle support functions.
+
+.. note::
+ The :mod:`copy_reg` module has been renamed to :mod:`copyreg` in Python 3.
+ The :term:`2to3` tool will automatically adapt imports when converting your
+ sources to Python 3.
+
+.. index::
+ module: pickle
+ module: cPickle
+ module: copy
+
+The :mod:`copy_reg` module offers a way to define fuctions used while pickling
+specific objects. The :mod:`pickle`, :mod:`cPickle`, and :mod:`copy` modules
+use those functions when pickling/copying those objects. The module provides
+configuration information about object constructors which are not classes.
+Such constructors may be factory functions or class instances.
+
+
+.. function:: constructor(object)
+
+ Declares *object* to be a valid constructor. If *object* is not callable (and
+ hence not valid as a constructor), raises :exc:`TypeError`.
+
+
+.. function:: pickle(type, function[, constructor])
+
+ Declares that *function* should be used as a "reduction" function for objects of
+ type *type*; *type* must not be a "classic" class object. (Classic classes are
+ handled differently; see the documentation for the :mod:`pickle` module for
+ details.) *function* should return either a string or a tuple containing two or
+ three elements.
+
+ The optional *constructor* parameter, if provided, is a callable object which
+ can be used to reconstruct the object when called with the tuple of arguments
+ returned by *function* at pickling time. :exc:`TypeError` will be raised if
+ *object* is a class or *constructor* is not callable.
+
+ See the :mod:`pickle` module for more details on the interface expected of
+ *function* and *constructor*.
+
+Example
+-------
+
+The example below would like to show how to register a pickle function and how
+it will be used:
+
+ >>> import copy_reg, copy, pickle
+ >>> class C(object):
+ ... def __init__(self, a):
+ ... self.a = a
+ ...
+ >>> def pickle_c(c):
+ ... print("pickling a C instance...")
+ ... return C, (c.a,)
+ ...
+ >>> copy_reg.pickle(C, pickle_c)
+ >>> c = C(1)
+ >>> d = copy.copy(c)
+ pickling a C instance...
+ >>> p = pickle.dumps(c)
+ pickling a C instance...

+This module implements an interface to the :manpage:`crypt(3)` routine, which is
+a one-way hash function based upon a modified DES algorithm; see the Unix man
+page for further details. Possible uses include allowing Python scripts to
+accept typed passwords from the user, or attempting to crack Unix passwords with
+a dictionary.
+
+.. index:: single: crypt(3)
+
+Notice that the behavior of this module depends on the actual implementation of

+extensions available on the current implementation will also be available on
+this module.
+
+
+.. function:: crypt(word, salt)
+
+ *word* will usually be a user's password as typed at a prompt or in a graphical
+ interface. *salt* is usually a random two-character string which will be used
+ to perturb the DES algorithm in one of 4096 ways. The characters in *salt* must
+ be in the set ``[./a-zA-Z0-9]``. Returns the hashed password as a string, which
+ will be composed of characters from the same alphabet as the salt (the first two
+ characters represent the salt itself).
+
+ .. index:: single: crypt(3)
+
+ Since a few :manpage:`crypt(3)` extensions allow different values, with
+ different sizes in the *salt*, it is recommended to use the full crypted
+ password as salt when checking for a password.

+
+ def login():

+
+:mod:`csv` --- CSV File Reading and Writing
+===========================================
+
+.. module:: csv
+ :synopsis: Write and read tabular data to and from delimited files.
+.. sectionauthor:: Skip Montanaro <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+.. index::
+ single: csv
+ pair: data; tabular
+
+The so-called CSV (Comma Separated Values) format is the most common import and
+export format for spreadsheets and databases. There is no "CSV standard", so
+the format is operationally defined by the many applications which read and
+write it. The lack of a standard means that subtle differences often exist in
+the data produced and consumed by different applications. These differences can
+make it annoying to process CSV files from multiple sources. Still, while the
+delimiters and quoting characters vary, the overall format is similar enough
+that it is possible to write a single module which can efficiently manipulate
+such data, hiding the details of reading and writing the data from the
+programmer.
+
+The :mod:`csv` module implements classes to read and write tabular data in CSV
+format. It allows programmers to say, "write this data in the format preferred
+by Excel," or "read data from this file which was generated by Excel," without
+knowing the precise details of the CSV format used by Excel. Programmers can
+also describe the CSV formats understood by other applications or define their
+own special-purpose CSV formats.
+
+The :mod:`csv` module's :class:`reader` and :class:`writer` objects read and
+write sequences. Programmers can also read and write data in dictionary form
+using the :class:`DictReader` and :class:`DictWriter` classes.
+
+.. note::
+
+ This version of the :mod:`csv` module doesn't support Unicode input. Also,
+ there are currently some issues regarding ASCII NUL characters. Accordingly,
+ all input should be UTF-8 or printable ASCII to be safe; see the examples in
+ section :ref:`csv-examples`.
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ :pep:`305` - CSV File API
+ The Python Enhancement Proposal which proposed this addition to Python.
+
+
+.. _csv-contents:
+
+Module Contents
+---------------
+
+The :mod:`csv` module defines the following functions:
+
+
+.. function:: reader(csvfile, dialect='excel', **fmtparams)
+
+ Return a reader object which will iterate over lines in the given *csvfile*.
+ *csvfile* can be any object which supports the :term:`iterator` protocol and returns a
+ string each time its :meth:`!next` method is called --- file objects and list
+ objects are both suitable. If *csvfile* is a file object, it must be opened
+ with the 'b' flag on platforms where that makes a difference. An optional
+ *dialect* parameter can be given which is used to define a set of parameters
+ specific to a particular CSV dialect. It may be an instance of a subclass of
+ the :class:`Dialect` class or one of the strings returned by the
+ :func:`list_dialects` function. The other optional *fmtparams* keyword arguments
+ can be given to override individual formatting parameters in the current
+ dialect. For full details about the dialect and formatting parameters, see
+ section :ref:`csv-fmt-params`.
+
+ Each row read from the csv file is returned as a list of strings. No
+ automatic data type conversion is performed.
+
+ A short usage example::
+
+ >>> import csv
+ >>> with open('eggs.csv', 'rb') as csvfile:
+ ... spamreader = csv.reader(csvfile, delimiter=' ', quotechar='|')
+ ... for row in spamreader:
+ ... print ', '.join(row)
+ Spam, Spam, Spam, Spam, Spam, Baked Beans
+ Spam, Lovely Spam, Wonderful Spam
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ The parser is now stricter with respect to multi-line quoted fields. Previously,
+ if a line ended within a quoted field without a terminating newline character, a
+ newline would be inserted into the returned field. This behavior caused problems
+ when reading files which contained carriage return characters within fields.
+ The behavior was changed to return the field without inserting newlines. As a
+ consequence, if newlines embedded within fields are important, the input should
+ be split into lines in a manner which preserves the newline characters.
+
+
+.. function:: writer(csvfile, dialect='excel', **fmtparams)
+
+ Return a writer object responsible for converting the user's data into delimited
+ strings on the given file-like object. *csvfile* can be any object with a
+ :func:`write` method. If *csvfile* is a file object, it must be opened with the
+ 'b' flag on platforms where that makes a difference. An optional *dialect*
+ parameter can be given which is used to define a set of parameters specific to a
+ particular CSV dialect. It may be an instance of a subclass of the
+ :class:`Dialect` class or one of the strings returned by the
+ :func:`list_dialects` function. The other optional *fmtparams* keyword arguments
+ can be given to override individual formatting parameters in the current
+ dialect. For full details about the dialect and formatting parameters, see
+ section :ref:`csv-fmt-params`. To make it
+ as easy as possible to interface with modules which implement the DB API, the
+ value :const:`None` is written as the empty string. While this isn't a
+ reversible transformation, it makes it easier to dump SQL NULL data values to
+ CSV files without preprocessing the data returned from a ``cursor.fetch*`` call.
+ All other non-string data are stringified with :func:`str` before being written.
+
+ A short usage example::
+
+ import csv
+ with open('eggs.csv', 'wb') as csvfile:
+ spamwriter = csv.writer(csvfile, delimiter=' ',
+ quotechar='|', quoting=csv.QUOTE_MINIMAL)
+ spamwriter.writerow(['Spam'] * 5 + ['Baked Beans'])
+ spamwriter.writerow(['Spam', 'Lovely Spam', 'Wonderful Spam'])
+
+
+.. function:: register_dialect(name[, dialect], **fmtparams)
+
+ Associate *dialect* with *name*. *name* must be a string or Unicode object. The
+ dialect can be specified either by passing a sub-class of :class:`Dialect`, or
+ by *fmtparams* keyword arguments, or both, with keyword arguments overriding
+ parameters of the dialect. For full details about the dialect and formatting
+ parameters, see section :ref:`csv-fmt-params`.
+
+
+.. function:: unregister_dialect(name)
+
+ Delete the dialect associated with *name* from the dialect registry. An
+ :exc:`Error` is raised if *name* is not a registered dialect name.
+
+
+.. function:: get_dialect(name)
+
+ Return the dialect associated with *name*. An :exc:`Error` is raised if *name*
+ is not a registered dialect name.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ This function now returns an immutable :class:`Dialect`. Previously an
+ instance of the requested dialect was returned. Users could modify the
+ underlying class, changing the behavior of active readers and writers.
+
+.. function:: list_dialects()
+
+ Return the names of all registered dialects.
+
+
+.. function:: field_size_limit([new_limit])
+
+ Returns the current maximum field size allowed by the parser. If *new_limit* is
+ given, this becomes the new limit.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+The :mod:`csv` module defines the following classes:
+
+
+.. class:: DictReader(csvfile, fieldnames=None, restkey=None, restval=None, dialect='excel', *args, **kwds)
+
+ Create an object which operates like a regular reader but maps the information
+ read into a dict whose keys are given by the optional *fieldnames* parameter.
+ If the *fieldnames* parameter is omitted, the values in the first row of the
+ *csvfile* will be used as the fieldnames. If the row read has more fields
+ than the fieldnames sequence, the remaining data is added as a sequence
+ keyed by the value of *restkey*. If the row read has fewer fields than the
+ fieldnames sequence, the remaining keys take the value of the optional
+ *restval* parameter. Any other optional or keyword arguments are passed to
+ the underlying :class:`reader` instance.
+
+
+.. class:: DictWriter(csvfile, fieldnames, restval='', extrasaction='raise', dialect='excel', *args, **kwds)
+
+ Create an object which operates like a regular writer but maps dictionaries onto
+ output rows. The *fieldnames* parameter identifies the order in which values in
+ the dictionary passed to the :meth:`writerow` method are written to the
+ *csvfile*. The optional *restval* parameter specifies the value to be written
+ if the dictionary is missing a key in *fieldnames*. If the dictionary passed to
+ the :meth:`writerow` method contains a key not found in *fieldnames*, the
+ optional *extrasaction* parameter indicates what action to take. If it is set
+ to ``'raise'`` a :exc:`ValueError` is raised. If it is set to ``'ignore'``,
+ extra values in the dictionary are ignored. Any other optional or keyword
+ arguments are passed to the underlying :class:`writer` instance.
+
+ Note that unlike the :class:`DictReader` class, the *fieldnames* parameter of
+ the :class:`DictWriter` is not optional. Since Python's :class:`dict` objects
+ are not ordered, there is not enough information available to deduce the order
+ in which the row should be written to the *csvfile*.
+
+
+.. class:: Dialect
+
+ The :class:`Dialect` class is a container class relied on primarily for its
+ attributes, which are used to define the parameters for a specific
+ :class:`reader` or :class:`writer` instance.
+
+
+.. class:: excel()
+
+ The :class:`excel` class defines the usual properties of an Excel-generated CSV
+ file. It is registered with the dialect name ``'excel'``.
+
+
+.. class:: excel_tab()
+
+ The :class:`excel_tab` class defines the usual properties of an Excel-generated
+ TAB-delimited file. It is registered with the dialect name ``'excel-tab'``.
+
+
+.. class:: Sniffer()
+
+ The :class:`Sniffer` class is used to deduce the format of a CSV file.
+
+ The :class:`Sniffer` class provides two methods:
+
+ .. method:: sniff(sample, delimiters=None)
+
+ Analyze the given *sample* and return a :class:`Dialect` subclass
+ reflecting the parameters found. If the optional *delimiters* parameter
+ is given, it is interpreted as a string containing possible valid
+ delimiter characters.
+
+
+ .. method:: has_header(sample)
+
+ Analyze the sample text (presumed to be in CSV format) and return
+ :const:`True` if the first row appears to be a series of column headers.
+
+An example for :class:`Sniffer` use::
+
+ with open('example.csv', 'rb') as csvfile:
+ dialect = csv.Sniffer().sniff(csvfile.read(1024))
+ csvfile.seek(0)
+ reader = csv.reader(csvfile, dialect)
+ # ... process CSV file contents here ...
+
+
+The :mod:`csv` module defines the following constants:
+
+.. data:: QUOTE_ALL
+
+ Instructs :class:`writer` objects to quote all fields.
+
+
+.. data:: QUOTE_MINIMAL
+
+ Instructs :class:`writer` objects to only quote those fields which contain
+ special characters such as *delimiter*, *quotechar* or any of the characters in
+ *lineterminator*.
+
+
+.. data:: QUOTE_NONNUMERIC
+
+ Instructs :class:`writer` objects to quote all non-numeric fields.
+
+ Instructs the reader to convert all non-quoted fields to type *float*.
+
+
+.. data:: QUOTE_NONE
+
+ Instructs :class:`writer` objects to never quote fields. When the current
+ *delimiter* occurs in output data it is preceded by the current *escapechar*
+ character. If *escapechar* is not set, the writer will raise :exc:`Error` if
+ any characters that require escaping are encountered.
+
+ Instructs :class:`reader` to perform no special processing of quote characters.
+
+The :mod:`csv` module defines the following exception:
+
+
+.. exception:: Error
+
+ Raised by any of the functions when an error is detected.
+
+
+.. _csv-fmt-params:
+
+Dialects and Formatting Parameters
+----------------------------------
+
+To make it easier to specify the format of input and output records, specific
+formatting parameters are grouped together into dialects. A dialect is a
+subclass of the :class:`Dialect` class having a set of specific methods and a
+single :meth:`validate` method. When creating :class:`reader` or
+:class:`writer` objects, the programmer can specify a string or a subclass of
+the :class:`Dialect` class as the dialect parameter. In addition to, or instead
+of, the *dialect* parameter, the programmer can also specify individual
+formatting parameters, which have the same names as the attributes defined below
+for the :class:`Dialect` class.
+
+Dialects support the following attributes:
+
+
+.. attribute:: Dialect.delimiter
+
+ A one-character string used to separate fields. It defaults to ``','``.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Dialect.doublequote
+
+ Controls how instances of *quotechar* appearing inside a field should be
+ themselves be quoted. When :const:`True`, the character is doubled. When
+ :const:`False`, the *escapechar* is used as a prefix to the *quotechar*. It
+ defaults to :const:`True`.
+
+ On output, if *doublequote* is :const:`False` and no *escapechar* is set,
+ :exc:`Error` is raised if a *quotechar* is found in a field.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Dialect.escapechar
+
+ A one-character string used by the writer to escape the *delimiter* if *quoting*
+ is set to :const:`QUOTE_NONE` and the *quotechar* if *doublequote* is
+ :const:`False`. On reading, the *escapechar* removes any special meaning from
+ the following character. It defaults to :const:`None`, which disables escaping.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Dialect.lineterminator
+
+ The string used to terminate lines produced by the :class:`writer`. It defaults
+ to ``'\r\n'``.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ The :class:`reader` is hard-coded to recognise either ``'\r'`` or ``'\n'`` as
+ end-of-line, and ignores *lineterminator*. This behavior may change in the
+ future.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Dialect.quotechar
+
+ A one-character string used to quote fields containing special characters, such
+ as the *delimiter* or *quotechar*, or which contain new-line characters. It
+ defaults to ``'"'``.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Dialect.quoting
+
+ Controls when quotes should be generated by the writer and recognised by the
+ reader. It can take on any of the :const:`QUOTE_\*` constants (see section
+ :ref:`csv-contents`) and defaults to :const:`QUOTE_MINIMAL`.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Dialect.skipinitialspace
+
+ When :const:`True`, whitespace immediately following the *delimiter* is ignored.
+ The default is :const:`False`.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Dialect.strict
+
+ When ``True``, raise exception :exc:`Error` on bad CSV input.
+ The default is ``False``.
+
+Reader Objects
+--------------
+
+Reader objects (:class:`DictReader` instances and objects returned by the
+:func:`reader` function) have the following public methods:
+
+
+.. method:: csvreader.next()
+
+ Return the next row of the reader's iterable object as a list, parsed according
+ to the current dialect.
+
+Reader objects have the following public attributes:
+
+
+.. attribute:: csvreader.dialect
+
+ A read-only description of the dialect in use by the parser.
+
+
+.. attribute:: csvreader.line_num
+
+ The number of lines read from the source iterator. This is not the same as the
+ number of records returned, as records can span multiple lines.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+DictReader objects have the following public attribute:
+
+
+.. attribute:: csvreader.fieldnames
+
+ If not passed as a parameter when creating the object, this attribute is
+ initialized upon first access or when the first record is read from the
+ file.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+
+
+Writer Objects
+--------------
+
+:class:`Writer` objects (:class:`DictWriter` instances and objects returned by
+the :func:`writer` function) have the following public methods. A *row* must be
+a sequence of strings or numbers for :class:`Writer` objects and a dictionary
+mapping fieldnames to strings or numbers (by passing them through :func:`str`
+first) for :class:`DictWriter` objects. Note that complex numbers are written
+out surrounded by parens. This may cause some problems for other programs which
+read CSV files (assuming they support complex numbers at all).
+
+
+.. method:: csvwriter.writerow(row)
+
+ Write the *row* parameter to the writer's file object, formatted according to
+ the current dialect.
+
+
+.. method:: csvwriter.writerows(rows)
+
+ Write all the *rows* parameters (a list of *row* objects as described above) to
+ the writer's file object, formatted according to the current dialect.
+
+Writer objects have the following public attribute:
+
+
+.. attribute:: csvwriter.dialect
+
+ A read-only description of the dialect in use by the writer.
+
+
+DictWriter objects have the following public method:
+
+
+.. method:: DictWriter.writeheader()
+
+ Write a row with the field names (as specified in the constructor).
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+.. _csv-examples:
+
+Examples
+--------
+
+The simplest example of reading a CSV file::
+
+ import csv
+ with open('some.csv', 'rb') as f:
+ reader = csv.reader(f)
+ for row in reader:
+ print row
+
+Reading a file with an alternate format::
+
+ import csv
+ with open('passwd', 'rb') as f:
+ reader = csv.reader(f, delimiter=':', quoting=csv.QUOTE_NONE)
+ for row in reader:
+ print row
+
+The corresponding simplest possible writing example is::
+
+ import csv
+ with open('some.csv', 'wb') as f:
+ writer = csv.writer(f)
+ writer.writerows(someiterable)
+
+Registering a new dialect::
+
+ import csv
+ csv.register_dialect('unixpwd', delimiter=':', quoting=csv.QUOTE_NONE)
+ with open('passwd', 'rb') as f:
+ reader = csv.reader(f, 'unixpwd')
+
+A slightly more advanced use of the reader --- catching and reporting errors::
+
+ import csv, sys
+ filename = 'some.csv'
+ with open(filename, 'rb') as f:
+ reader = csv.reader(f)
+ try:
+ for row in reader:
+ print row
+ except csv.Error as e:
+ sys.exit('file %s, line %d: %s' % (filename, reader.line_num, e))
+
+And while the module doesn't directly support parsing strings, it can easily be
+done::
+
+ import csv
+ for row in csv.reader(['one,two,three']):
+ print row
+
+The :mod:`csv` module doesn't directly support reading and writing Unicode, but
+it is 8-bit-clean save for some problems with ASCII NUL characters. So you can
+write functions or classes that handle the encoding and decoding for you as long
+as you avoid encodings like UTF-16 that use NULs. UTF-8 is recommended.
+
+:func:`unicode_csv_reader` below is a :term:`generator` that wraps :class:`csv.reader`
+to handle Unicode CSV data (a list of Unicode strings). :func:`utf_8_encoder`
+is a :term:`generator` that encodes the Unicode strings as UTF-8, one string (or row) at
+a time. The encoded strings are parsed by the CSV reader, and
+:func:`unicode_csv_reader` decodes the UTF-8-encoded cells back into Unicode::
+
+ import csv
+
+ def unicode_csv_reader(unicode_csv_data, dialect=csv.excel, **kwargs):
+ # csv.py doesn't do Unicode; encode temporarily as UTF-8:
+ csv_reader = csv.reader(utf_8_encoder(unicode_csv_data),
+ dialect=dialect, **kwargs)
+ for row in csv_reader:
+ # decode UTF-8 back to Unicode, cell by cell:
+ yield [unicode(cell, 'utf-8') for cell in row]
+
+ def utf_8_encoder(unicode_csv_data):
+ for line in unicode_csv_data:
+ yield line.encode('utf-8')
+
+For all other encodings the following :class:`UnicodeReader` and
+:class:`UnicodeWriter` classes can be used. They take an additional *encoding*
+parameter in their constructor and make sure that the data passes the real
+reader or writer encoded as UTF-8::
+
+ import csv, codecs, cStringIO
+
+ class UTF8Recoder:
+ """
+ Iterator that reads an encoded stream and reencodes the input to UTF-8
+ """
+ def __init__(self, f, encoding):
+ self.reader = codecs.getreader(encoding)(f)
+
+ def __iter__(self):
+ return self
+
+ def next(self):
+ return self.reader.next().encode("utf-8")
+
+ class UnicodeReader:
+ """
+ A CSV reader which will iterate over lines in the CSV file "f",
+ which is encoded in the given encoding.
+ """
+
+ def __init__(self, f, dialect=csv.excel, encoding="utf-8", **kwds):
+ f = UTF8Recoder(f, encoding)
+ self.reader = csv.reader(f, dialect=dialect, **kwds)
+
+ def next(self):
+ row = self.reader.next()
+ return [unicode(s, "utf-8") for s in row]
+
+ def __iter__(self):
+ return self
+
+ class UnicodeWriter:
+ """
+ A CSV writer which will write rows to CSV file "f",
+ which is encoded in the given encoding.
+ """
+
+ def __init__(self, f, dialect=csv.excel, encoding="utf-8", **kwds):
+ # Redirect output to a queue
+ self.queue = cStringIO.StringIO()
+ self.writer = csv.writer(self.queue, dialect=dialect, **kwds)
+ self.stream = f
+ self.encoder = codecs.getincrementalencoder(encoding)()
+
+ def writerow(self, row):
+ self.writer.writerow([s.encode("utf-8") for s in row])
+ # Fetch UTF-8 output from the queue ...
+ data = self.queue.getvalue()
+ data = data.decode("utf-8")
+ # ... and reencode it into the target encoding
+ data = self.encoder.encode(data)
+ # write to the target stream
+ self.stream.write(data)
+ # empty queue
+ self.queue.truncate(0)
+
+ def writerows(self, rows):

+:mod:`ctypes` --- A foreign function library for Python
+=======================================================
+
+.. module:: ctypes
+ :synopsis: A foreign function library for Python.
+.. moduleauthor:: Thomas Heller <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+:mod:`ctypes` is a foreign function library for Python. It provides C compatible
+data types, and allows calling functions in DLLs or shared libraries. It can be
+used to wrap these libraries in pure Python.
+
+
+.. _ctypes-ctypes-tutorial:
+
+ctypes tutorial
+---------------
+
+Note: The code samples in this tutorial use :mod:`doctest` to make sure that
+they actually work. Since some code samples behave differently under Linux,
+Windows, or Mac OS X, they contain doctest directives in comments.
+
+Note: Some code samples reference the ctypes :class:`c_int` type. This type is
+an alias for the :class:`c_long` type on 32-bit systems. So, you should not be
+confused if :class:`c_long` is printed if you would expect :class:`c_int` ---
+they are actually the same type.
+
+
+.. _ctypes-loading-dynamic-link-libraries:
+
+Loading dynamic link libraries
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+:mod:`ctypes` exports the *cdll*, and on Windows *windll* and *oledll*
+objects, for loading dynamic link libraries.
+
+You load libraries by accessing them as attributes of these objects. *cdll*
+loads libraries which export functions using the standard ``cdecl`` calling
+convention, while *windll* libraries call functions using the ``stdcall``
+calling convention. *oledll* also uses the ``stdcall`` calling convention, and
+assumes the functions return a Windows :c:type:`HRESULT` error code. The error
+code is used to automatically raise a :class:`WindowsError` exception when the
+function call fails.
+
+Here are some examples for Windows. Note that ``msvcrt`` is the MS standard C
+library containing most standard C functions, and uses the cdecl calling
+convention::
+
+ >>> from ctypes import *

+
+Accessing functions from loaded dlls
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Functions are accessed as attributes of dll objects::
+
+ >>> from ctypes import *
+ >>> libc.printf
+ <_FuncPtr object at 0x...>
+ >>> print windll.kernel32.GetModuleHandleA # doctest: +WINDOWS
+ <_FuncPtr object at 0x...>
+ >>> print windll.kernel32.MyOwnFunction # doctest: +WINDOWS
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
+ File "ctypes.py", line 239, in __getattr__
+ func = _StdcallFuncPtr(name, self)
+ AttributeError: function 'MyOwnFunction' not found
+ >>>
+
+Note that win32 system dlls like ``kernel32`` and ``user32`` often export ANSI
+as well as UNICODE versions of a function. The UNICODE version is exported with
+an ``W`` appended to the name, while the ANSI version is exported with an ``A``
+appended to the name. The win32 ``GetModuleHandle`` function, which returns a
+*module handle* for a given module name, has the following C prototype, and a
+macro is used to expose one of them as ``GetModuleHandle`` depending on whether
+UNICODE is defined or not::
+
+ /* ANSI version */
+ HMODULE GetModuleHandleA(LPCSTR lpModuleName);
+ /* UNICODE version */
+ HMODULE GetModuleHandleW(LPCWSTR lpModuleName);
+
+*windll* does not try to select one of them by magic, you must access the
+version you need by specifying ``GetModuleHandleA`` or ``GetModuleHandleW``
+explicitly, and then call it with strings or unicode strings
+respectively.
+
+Sometimes, dlls export functions with names which aren't valid Python
+identifiers, like ``"??2@YAPAXI@Z"``. In this case you have to use
+:func:`getattr` to retrieve the function::
+
+ >>> getattr(cdll.msvcrt, "??2@YAPAXI@Z") # doctest: +WINDOWS
+ <_FuncPtr object at 0x...>
+ >>>
+
+On Windows, some dlls export functions not by name but by ordinal. These
+functions can be accessed by indexing the dll object with the ordinal number::
+
+ >>> cdll.kernel32[1] # doctest: +WINDOWS
+ <_FuncPtr object at 0x...>
+ >>> cdll.kernel32[0] # doctest: +WINDOWS
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
+ File "ctypes.py", line 310, in __getitem__
+ func = _StdcallFuncPtr(name, self)
+ AttributeError: function ordinal 0 not found
+ >>>
+
+
+.. _ctypes-calling-functions:
+
+Calling functions
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+You can call these functions like any other Python callable. This example uses
+the ``time()`` function, which returns system time in seconds since the Unix
+epoch, and the ``GetModuleHandleA()`` function, which returns a win32 module
+handle.
+
+This example calls both functions with a NULL pointer (``None`` should be used
+as the NULL pointer)::
+
+ >>> print libc.time(None) # doctest: +SKIP
+ 1150640792
+ >>> print hex(windll.kernel32.GetModuleHandleA(None)) # doctest: +WINDOWS
+ 0x1d000000
+ >>>
+
+:mod:`ctypes` tries to protect you from calling functions with the wrong number
+of arguments or the wrong calling convention. Unfortunately this only works on
+Windows. It does this by examining the stack after the function returns, so
+although an error is raised the function *has* been called::
+
+ >>> windll.kernel32.GetModuleHandleA() # doctest: +WINDOWS
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
+ ValueError: Procedure probably called with not enough arguments (4 bytes missing)
+ >>> windll.kernel32.GetModuleHandleA(0, 0) # doctest: +WINDOWS
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
+ ValueError: Procedure probably called with too many arguments (4 bytes in excess)
+ >>>
+
+The same exception is raised when you call an ``stdcall`` function with the
+``cdecl`` calling convention, or vice versa::
+
+ >>> cdll.kernel32.GetModuleHandleA(None) # doctest: +WINDOWS
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
+ ValueError: Procedure probably called with not enough arguments (4 bytes missing)
+ >>>
+
+ >>> windll.msvcrt.printf("spam") # doctest: +WINDOWS
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
+ ValueError: Procedure probably called with too many arguments (4 bytes in excess)
+ >>>
+
+To find out the correct calling convention you have to look into the C header
+file or the documentation for the function you want to call.
+
+On Windows, :mod:`ctypes` uses win32 structured exception handling to prevent
+crashes from general protection faults when functions are called with invalid
+argument values::
+
+ >>> windll.kernel32.GetModuleHandleA(32) # doctest: +WINDOWS
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
+ WindowsError: exception: access violation reading 0x00000020
+ >>>
+
+There are, however, enough ways to crash Python with :mod:`ctypes`, so you
+should be careful anyway.
+
+``None``, integers, longs, byte strings and unicode strings are the only native
+Python objects that can directly be used as parameters in these function calls.
+``None`` is passed as a C ``NULL`` pointer, byte strings and unicode strings are
+passed as pointer to the memory block that contains their data (:c:type:`char *`
+or :c:type:`wchar_t *`). Python integers and Python longs are passed as the
+platforms default C :c:type:`int` type, their value is masked to fit into the C
+type.
+
+Before we move on calling functions with other parameter types, we have to learn
+more about :mod:`ctypes` data types.
+
+
+.. _ctypes-fundamental-data-types:
+
+Fundamental data types
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+:mod:`ctypes` defines a number of primitive C compatible data types :
+
++----------------------+------------------------------------------+----------------------------+
+| ctypes type | C type | Python type |
++======================+==========================================+============================+
+| :class:`c_bool` | :c:type:`_Bool` | bool (1) |
++----------------------+------------------------------------------+----------------------------+
+| :class:`c_char` | :c:type:`char` | 1-character string |
++----------------------+------------------------------------------+----------------------------+
+| :class:`c_wchar` | :c:type:`wchar_t` | 1-character unicode string |
++----------------------+------------------------------------------+----------------------------+
+| :class:`c_byte` | :c:type:`char` | int/long |
++----------------------+------------------------------------------+----------------------------+
+| :class:`c_ubyte` | :c:type:`unsigned char` | int/long |
++----------------------+------------------------------------------+----------------------------+
+| :class:`c_short` | :c:type:`short` | int/long |
++----------------------+------------------------------------------+----------------------------+
+| :class:`c_ushort` | :c:type:`unsigned short` | int/long |
++----------------------+------------------------------------------+----------------------------+
+| :class:`c_int` | :c:type:`int` | int/long |
++----------------------+------------------------------------------+----------------------------+

++----------------------+------------------------------------------+----------------------------+
+| :class:`c_ulonglong` | :c:type:`unsigned __int64` or | int/long |
+| | :c:type:`unsigned long long` | |
++----------------------+------------------------------------------+----------------------------+
+| :class:`c_float` | :c:type:`float` | float |
++----------------------+------------------------------------------+----------------------------+
+| :class:`c_double` | :c:type:`double` | float |
++----------------------+------------------------------------------+----------------------------+
+| :class:`c_longdouble`| :c:type:`long double` | float |
++----------------------+------------------------------------------+----------------------------+
+| :class:`c_char_p` | :c:type:`char *` (NUL terminated) | string or ``None`` |
++----------------------+------------------------------------------+----------------------------+
+| :class:`c_wchar_p` | :c:type:`wchar_t *` (NUL terminated) | unicode or ``None`` |
++----------------------+------------------------------------------+----------------------------+
+| :class:`c_void_p` | :c:type:`void *` | int/long or ``None`` |
++----------------------+------------------------------------------+----------------------------+
+
+(1)
+ The constructor accepts any object with a truth value.
+
+All these types can be created by calling them with an optional initializer of
+the correct type and value::
+
+ >>> c_int()
+ c_long(0)
+ >>> c_char_p("Hello, World")
+ c_char_p('Hello, World')
+ >>> c_ushort(-3)
+ c_ushort(65533)
+ >>>
+
+Since these types are mutable, their value can also be changed afterwards::
+
+ >>> i = c_int(42)
+ >>> print i
+ c_long(42)
+ >>> print i.value
+ 42
+ >>> i.value = -99
+ >>> print i.value
+ -99
+ >>>
+
+Assigning a new value to instances of the pointer types :class:`c_char_p`,
+:class:`c_wchar_p`, and :class:`c_void_p` changes the *memory location* they
+point to, *not the contents* of the memory block (of course not, because Python
+strings are immutable)::
+
+ >>> s = "Hello, World"
+ >>> c_s = c_char_p(s)
+ >>> print c_s
+ c_char_p('Hello, World')
+ >>> c_s.value = "Hi, there"
+ >>> print c_s
+ c_char_p('Hi, there')
+ >>> print s # first string is unchanged
+ Hello, World
+ >>>
+
+You should be careful, however, not to pass them to functions expecting pointers
+to mutable memory. If you need mutable memory blocks, ctypes has a
+:func:`create_string_buffer` function which creates these in various ways. The
+current memory block contents can be accessed (or changed) with the ``raw``
+property; if you want to access it as NUL terminated string, use the ``value``
+property::
+
+ >>> from ctypes import *
+ >>> p = create_string_buffer(3) # create a 3 byte buffer, initialized to NUL bytes
+ >>> print sizeof(p), repr(p.raw)
+ 3 '\x00\x00\x00'
+ >>> p = create_string_buffer("Hello") # create a buffer containing a NUL terminated string
+ >>> print sizeof(p), repr(p.raw)
+ 6 'Hello\x00'
+ >>> print repr(p.value)
+ 'Hello'
+ >>> p = create_string_buffer("Hello", 10) # create a 10 byte buffer
+ >>> print sizeof(p), repr(p.raw)
+ 10 'Hello\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00'
+ >>> p.value = "Hi"
+ >>> print sizeof(p), repr(p.raw)
+ 10 'Hi\x00lo\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00'
+ >>>
+
+The :func:`create_string_buffer` function replaces the :func:`c_buffer` function
+(which is still available as an alias), as well as the :func:`c_string` function
+from earlier ctypes releases. To create a mutable memory block containing
+unicode characters of the C type :c:type:`wchar_t` use the
+:func:`create_unicode_buffer` function.
+
+
+.. _ctypes-calling-functions-continued:
+
+Calling functions, continued
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Note that printf prints to the real standard output channel, *not* to
+:data:`sys.stdout`, so these examples will only work at the console prompt, not
+from within *IDLE* or *PythonWin*::
+
+ >>> printf = libc.printf
+ >>> printf("Hello, %s\n", "World!")
+ Hello, World!
+ 14
+ >>> printf("Hello, %S\n", u"World!")
+ Hello, World!
+ 14
+ >>> printf("%d bottles of beer\n", 42)
+ 42 bottles of beer
+ 19
+ >>> printf("%f bottles of beer\n", 42.5)
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
+ ArgumentError: argument 2: exceptions.TypeError: Don't know how to convert parameter 2
+ >>>
+
+As has been mentioned before, all Python types except integers, strings, and
+unicode strings have to be wrapped in their corresponding :mod:`ctypes` type, so
+that they can be converted to the required C data type::
+
+ >>> printf("An int %d, a double %f\n", 1234, c_double(3.14))
+ An int 1234, a double 3.140000
+ 31
+ >>>
+
+
+.. _ctypes-calling-functions-with-own-custom-data-types:
+
+Calling functions with your own custom data types
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+You can also customize :mod:`ctypes` argument conversion to allow instances of
+your own classes be used as function arguments. :mod:`ctypes` looks for an
+:attr:`_as_parameter_` attribute and uses this as the function argument. Of
+course, it must be one of integer, string, or unicode::
+
+ >>> class Bottles(object):
+ ... def __init__(self, number):
+ ... self._as_parameter_ = number
+ ...
+ >>> bottles = Bottles(42)
+ >>> printf("%d bottles of beer\n", bottles)
+ 42 bottles of beer
+ 19
+ >>>
+
+If you don't want to store the instance's data in the :attr:`_as_parameter_`
+instance variable, you could define a :func:`property` which makes the data
+available.
+
+
+.. _ctypes-specifying-required-argument-types:
+
+Specifying the required argument types (function prototypes)
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+It is possible to specify the required argument types of functions exported from
+DLLs by setting the :attr:`argtypes` attribute.
+
+:attr:`argtypes` must be a sequence of C data types (the ``printf`` function is
+probably not a good example here, because it takes a variable number and
+different types of parameters depending on the format string, on the other hand
+this is quite handy to experiment with this feature)::
+
+ >>> printf.argtypes = [c_char_p, c_char_p, c_int, c_double]
+ >>> printf("String '%s', Int %d, Double %f\n", "Hi", 10, 2.2)
+ String 'Hi', Int 10, Double 2.200000
+ 37
+ >>>
+
+Specifying a format protects against incompatible argument types (just as a
+prototype for a C function), and tries to convert the arguments to valid types::
+
+ >>> printf("%d %d %d", 1, 2, 3)
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
+ ArgumentError: argument 2: exceptions.TypeError: wrong type
+ >>> printf("%s %d %f\n", "X", 2, 3)
+ X 2 3.000000
+ 13
+ >>>
+
+If you have defined your own classes which you pass to function calls, you have
+to implement a :meth:`from_param` class method for them to be able to use them
+in the :attr:`argtypes` sequence. The :meth:`from_param` class method receives
+the Python object passed to the function call, it should do a typecheck or
+whatever is needed to make sure this object is acceptable, and then return the
+object itself, its :attr:`_as_parameter_` attribute, or whatever you want to
+pass as the C function argument in this case. Again, the result should be an
+integer, string, unicode, a :mod:`ctypes` instance, or an object with an
+:attr:`_as_parameter_` attribute.
+
+
+.. _ctypes-return-types:
+
+Return types
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+By default functions are assumed to return the C :c:type:`int` type. Other
+return types can be specified by setting the :attr:`restype` attribute of the
+function object.
+
+Here is a more advanced example, it uses the ``strchr`` function, which expects
+a string pointer and a char, and returns a pointer to a string::
+
+ >>> strchr = libc.strchr
+ >>> strchr("abcdef", ord("d")) # doctest: +SKIP
+ 8059983
+ >>> strchr.restype = c_char_p # c_char_p is a pointer to a string
+ >>> strchr("abcdef", ord("d"))
+ 'def'
+ >>> print strchr("abcdef", ord("x"))
+ None
+ >>>
+
+If you want to avoid the ``ord("x")`` calls above, you can set the
+:attr:`argtypes` attribute, and the second argument will be converted from a
+single character Python string into a C char::
+
+ >>> strchr.restype = c_char_p
+ >>> strchr.argtypes = [c_char_p, c_char]
+ >>> strchr("abcdef", "d")
+ 'def'
+ >>> strchr("abcdef", "def")
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
+ ArgumentError: argument 2: exceptions.TypeError: one character string expected
+ >>> print strchr("abcdef", "x")
+ None
+ >>> strchr("abcdef", "d")
+ 'def'
+ >>>
+
+You can also use a callable Python object (a function or a class for example) as
+the :attr:`restype` attribute, if the foreign function returns an integer. The
+callable will be called with the *integer* the C function returns, and the
+result of this call will be used as the result of your function call. This is
+useful to check for error return values and automatically raise an exception::
+
+ >>> GetModuleHandle = windll.kernel32.GetModuleHandleA # doctest: +WINDOWS
+ >>> def ValidHandle(value):
+ ... if value == 0:
+ ... raise WinError()
+ ... return value
+ ...
+ >>>
+ >>> GetModuleHandle.restype = ValidHandle # doctest: +WINDOWS
+ >>> GetModuleHandle(None) # doctest: +WINDOWS
+ 486539264
+ >>> GetModuleHandle("something silly") # doctest: +WINDOWS
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
+ File "<stdin>", line 3, in ValidHandle
+ WindowsError: [Errno 126] The specified module could not be found.
+ >>>
+
+``WinError`` is a function which will call Windows ``FormatMessage()`` api to
+get the string representation of an error code, and *returns* an exception.
+``WinError`` takes an optional error code parameter, if no one is used, it calls
+:func:`GetLastError` to retrieve it.
+
+Please note that a much more powerful error checking mechanism is available
+through the :attr:`errcheck` attribute; see the reference manual for details.
+
+
+.. _ctypes-passing-pointers:
+
+Passing pointers (or: passing parameters by reference)
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Sometimes a C api function expects a *pointer* to a data type as parameter,
+probably to write into the corresponding location, or if the data is too large
+to be passed by value. This is also known as *passing parameters by reference*.
+
+:mod:`ctypes` exports the :func:`byref` function which is used to pass
+parameters by reference. The same effect can be achieved with the
+:func:`pointer` function, although :func:`pointer` does a lot more work since it
+constructs a real pointer object, so it is faster to use :func:`byref` if you
+don't need the pointer object in Python itself::
+
+ >>> i = c_int()
+ >>> f = c_float()
+ >>> s = create_string_buffer('\000' * 32)
+ >>> print i.value, f.value, repr(s.value)
+ 0 0.0 ''
+ >>> libc.sscanf("1 3.14 Hello", "%d %f %s",
+ ... byref(i), byref(f), s)
+ 3
+ >>> print i.value, f.value, repr(s.value)
+ 1 3.1400001049 'Hello'
+ >>>
+
+
+.. _ctypes-structures-unions:
+
+Structures and unions
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Structures and unions must derive from the :class:`Structure` and :class:`Union`
+base classes which are defined in the :mod:`ctypes` module. Each subclass must
+define a :attr:`_fields_` attribute. :attr:`_fields_` must be a list of
+*2-tuples*, containing a *field name* and a *field type*.
+
+The field type must be a :mod:`ctypes` type like :class:`c_int`, or any other
+derived :mod:`ctypes` type: structure, union, array, pointer.
+
+Here is a simple example of a POINT structure, which contains two integers named
+*x* and *y*, and also shows how to initialize a structure in the constructor::
+
+ >>> from ctypes import *
+ >>> class POINT(Structure):
+ ... _fields_ = [("x", c_int),
+ ... ("y", c_int)]
+ ...
+ >>> point = POINT(10, 20)
+ >>> print point.x, point.y
+ 10 20
+ >>> point = POINT(y=5)
+ >>> print point.x, point.y
+ 0 5
+ >>> POINT(1, 2, 3)
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
+ ValueError: too many initializers
+ >>>
+
+You can, however, build much more complicated structures. A structure can
+itself contain other structures by using a structure as a field type.
+
+Here is a RECT structure which contains two POINTs named *upperleft* and
+*lowerright*::
+
+ >>> class RECT(Structure):
+ ... _fields_ = [("upperleft", POINT),
+ ... ("lowerright", POINT)]
+ ...
+ >>> rc = RECT(point)
+ >>> print rc.upperleft.x, rc.upperleft.y
+ 0 5
+ >>> print rc.lowerright.x, rc.lowerright.y
+ 0 0
+ >>>
+
+Nested structures can also be initialized in the constructor in several ways::
+
+ >>> r = RECT(POINT(1, 2), POINT(3, 4))
+ >>> r = RECT((1, 2), (3, 4))
+
+Field :term:`descriptor`\s can be retrieved from the *class*, they are useful
+for debugging because they can provide useful information::
+
+ >>> print POINT.x
+ <Field type=c_long, ofs=0, size=4>
+ >>> print POINT.y
+ <Field type=c_long, ofs=4, size=4>
+ >>>
+
+
+.. _ctypes-structureunion-alignment-byte-order:
+
+.. warning::
+
+ :mod:`ctypes` does not support passing unions or structures with bit-fields
+ to functions by value. While this may work on 32-bit x86, it's not
+ guaranteed by the library to work in the general case. Unions and
+ structures with bit-fields should always be passed to functions by pointer.
+
+Structure/union alignment and byte order
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+By default, Structure and Union fields are aligned in the same way the C
+compiler does it. It is possible to override this behavior be specifying a
+:attr:`_pack_` class attribute in the subclass definition. This must be set to a
+positive integer and specifies the maximum alignment for the fields. This is
+what ``#pragma pack(n)`` also does in MSVC.
+
+:mod:`ctypes` uses the native byte order for Structures and Unions. To build
+structures with non-native byte order, you can use one of the
+:class:`BigEndianStructure`, :class:`LittleEndianStructure`,
+:class:`BigEndianUnion`, and :class:`LittleEndianUnion` base classes. These
+classes cannot contain pointer fields.
+
+
+.. _ctypes-bit-fields-in-structures-unions:
+
+Bit fields in structures and unions
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+It is possible to create structures and unions containing bit fields. Bit fields
+are only possible for integer fields, the bit width is specified as the third
+item in the :attr:`_fields_` tuples::
+
+ >>> class Int(Structure):
+ ... _fields_ = [("first_16", c_int, 16),
+ ... ("second_16", c_int, 16)]
+ ...
+ >>> print Int.first_16
+ <Field type=c_long, ofs=0:0, bits=16>
+ >>> print Int.second_16
+ <Field type=c_long, ofs=0:16, bits=16>
+ >>>
+
+
+.. _ctypes-arrays:
+
+Arrays
+^^^^^^
+
+Arrays are sequences, containing a fixed number of instances of the same type.
+
+The recommended way to create array types is by multiplying a data type with a
+positive integer::
+
+ TenPointsArrayType = POINT * 10
+
+Here is an example of an somewhat artificial data type, a structure containing 4
+POINTs among other stuff::
+
+ >>> from ctypes import *
+ >>> class POINT(Structure):
+ ... _fields_ = ("x", c_int), ("y", c_int)
+ ...
+ >>> class MyStruct(Structure):
+ ... _fields_ = [("a", c_int),
+ ... ("b", c_float),
+ ... ("point_array", POINT * 4)]
+ >>>
+ >>> print len(MyStruct().point_array)
+ 4
+ >>>
+
+Instances are created in the usual way, by calling the class::
+
+ arr = TenPointsArrayType()
+ for pt in arr:
+ print pt.x, pt.y
+
+The above code print a series of ``0 0`` lines, because the array contents is
+initialized to zeros.
+
+Initializers of the correct type can also be specified::
+
+ >>> from ctypes import *
+ >>> TenIntegers = c_int * 10
+ >>> ii = TenIntegers(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10)
+ >>> print ii
+ <c_long_Array_10 object at 0x...>
+ >>> for i in ii: print i,
+ ...
+ 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
+ >>>
+
+
+.. _ctypes-pointers:
+
+Pointers
+^^^^^^^^
+
+Pointer instances are created by calling the :func:`pointer` function on a
+:mod:`ctypes` type::
+
+ >>> from ctypes import *
+ >>> i = c_int(42)
+ >>> pi = pointer(i)
+ >>>
+
+Pointer instances have a :attr:`contents` attribute which returns the object to
+which the pointer points, the ``i`` object above::
+
+ >>> pi.contents
+ c_long(42)
+ >>>
+
+Note that :mod:`ctypes` does not have OOR (original object return), it constructs a
+new, equivalent object each time you retrieve an attribute::
+
+ >>> pi.contents is i
+ False
+ >>> pi.contents is pi.contents
+ False
+ >>>
+
+Assigning another :class:`c_int` instance to the pointer's contents attribute
+would cause the pointer to point to the memory location where this is stored::
+
+ >>> i = c_int(99)
+ >>> pi.contents = i
+ >>> pi.contents
+ c_long(99)
+ >>>
+
+.. XXX Document dereferencing pointers, and that it is preferred over the
+ .contents attribute.
+
+Pointer instances can also be indexed with integers::
+
+ >>> pi[0]
+ 99
+ >>>
+
+Assigning to an integer index changes the pointed to value::
+
+ >>> print i
+ c_long(99)
+ >>> pi[0] = 22
+ >>> print i
+ c_long(22)
+ >>>
+
+It is also possible to use indexes different from 0, but you must know what
+you're doing, just as in C: You can access or change arbitrary memory locations.
+Generally you only use this feature if you receive a pointer from a C function,
+and you *know* that the pointer actually points to an array instead of a single
+item.
+
+Behind the scenes, the :func:`pointer` function does more than simply create
+pointer instances, it has to create pointer *types* first. This is done with
+the :func:`POINTER` function, which accepts any :mod:`ctypes` type, and returns
+a new type::
+
+ >>> PI = POINTER(c_int)
+ >>> PI
+ <class 'ctypes.LP_c_long'>
+ >>> PI(42)
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
+ TypeError: expected c_long instead of int
+ >>> PI(c_int(42))
+ <ctypes.LP_c_long object at 0x...>
+ >>>
+
+Calling the pointer type without an argument creates a ``NULL`` pointer.
+``NULL`` pointers have a ``False`` boolean value::
+
+ >>> null_ptr = POINTER(c_int)()
+ >>> print bool(null_ptr)
+ False
+ >>>
+
+:mod:`ctypes` checks for ``NULL`` when dereferencing pointers (but dereferencing
+invalid non-\ ``NULL`` pointers would crash Python)::
+
+ >>> null_ptr[0]
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ ....
+ ValueError: NULL pointer access
+ >>>
+
+ >>> null_ptr[0] = 1234
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ ....
+ ValueError: NULL pointer access
+ >>>
+
+
+.. _ctypes-type-conversions:
+
+Type conversions
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Usually, ctypes does strict type checking. This means, if you have
+``POINTER(c_int)`` in the :attr:`argtypes` list of a function or as the type of
+a member field in a structure definition, only instances of exactly the same
+type are accepted. There are some exceptions to this rule, where ctypes accepts
+other objects. For example, you can pass compatible array instances instead of
+pointer types. So, for ``POINTER(c_int)``, ctypes accepts an array of c_int::
+
+ >>> class Bar(Structure):
+ ... _fields_ = [("count", c_int), ("values", POINTER(c_int))]
+ ...
+ >>> bar = Bar()
+ >>> bar.values = (c_int * 3)(1, 2, 3)
+ >>> bar.count = 3
+ >>> for i in range(bar.count):
+ ... print bar.values[i]
+ ...
+ 1
+ 2
+ 3
+ >>>
+
+In addition, if a function argument is explicitly declared to be a pointer type
+(such as ``POINTER(c_int)``) in :attr:`argtypes`, an object of the pointed
+type (``c_int`` in this case) can be passed to the function. ctypes will apply
+the required :func:`byref` conversion in this case automatically.
+
+To set a POINTER type field to ``NULL``, you can assign ``None``::
+
+ >>> bar.values = None
+ >>>
+
+.. XXX list other conversions...
+
+Sometimes you have instances of incompatible types. In C, you can cast one type
+into another type. :mod:`ctypes` provides a :func:`cast` function which can be
+used in the same way. The ``Bar`` structure defined above accepts
+``POINTER(c_int)`` pointers or :class:`c_int` arrays for its ``values`` field,
+but not instances of other types::
+
+ >>> bar.values = (c_byte * 4)()
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
+ TypeError: incompatible types, c_byte_Array_4 instance instead of LP_c_long instance
+ >>>
+
+For these cases, the :func:`cast` function is handy.
+
+The :func:`cast` function can be used to cast a ctypes instance into a pointer
+to a different ctypes data type. :func:`cast` takes two parameters, a ctypes
+object that is or can be converted to a pointer of some kind, and a ctypes
+pointer type. It returns an instance of the second argument, which references
+the same memory block as the first argument::
+
+ >>> a = (c_byte * 4)()
+ >>> cast(a, POINTER(c_int))
+ <ctypes.LP_c_long object at ...>
+ >>>
+
+So, :func:`cast` can be used to assign to the ``values`` field of ``Bar`` the
+structure::
+
+ >>> bar = Bar()
+ >>> bar.values = cast((c_byte * 4)(), POINTER(c_int))
+ >>> print bar.values[0]
+ 0
+ >>>
+
+
+.. _ctypes-incomplete-types:
+
+Incomplete Types
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+*Incomplete Types* are structures, unions or arrays whose members are not yet
+specified. In C, they are specified by forward declarations, which are defined
+later::
+
+ struct cell; /* forward declaration */
+
+ struct cell {
+ char *name;
+ struct cell *next;
+ };
+
+The straightforward translation into ctypes code would be this, but it does not
+work::
+
+ >>> class cell(Structure):
+ ... _fields_ = [("name", c_char_p),
+ ... ("next", POINTER(cell))]
+ ...
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
+ File "<stdin>", line 2, in cell
+ NameError: name 'cell' is not defined
+ >>>
+
+because the new ``class cell`` is not available in the class statement itself.
+In :mod:`ctypes`, we can define the ``cell`` class and set the :attr:`_fields_`
+attribute later, after the class statement::
+
+ >>> from ctypes import *
+ >>> class cell(Structure):
+ ... pass
+ ...
+ >>> cell._fields_ = [("name", c_char_p),
+ ... ("next", POINTER(cell))]
+ >>>
+
+Lets try it. We create two instances of ``cell``, and let them point to each
+other, and finally follow the pointer chain a few times::
+
+ >>> c1 = cell()
+ >>> c1.name = "foo"
+ >>> c2 = cell()
+ >>> c2.name = "bar"
+ >>> c1.next = pointer(c2)
+ >>> c2.next = pointer(c1)
+ >>> p = c1
+ >>> for i in range(8):
+ ... print p.name,
+ ... p = p.next[0]
+ ...
+ foo bar foo bar foo bar foo bar
+ >>>
+
+
+.. _ctypes-callback-functions:
+
+Callback functions
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+:mod:`ctypes` allows to create C callable function pointers from Python callables.
+These are sometimes called *callback functions*.
+
+First, you must create a class for the callback function, the class knows the
+calling convention, the return type, and the number and types of arguments this
+function will receive.
+
+The CFUNCTYPE factory function creates types for callback functions using the
+normal cdecl calling convention, and, on Windows, the WINFUNCTYPE factory
+function creates types for callback functions using the stdcall calling
+convention.
+
+Both of these factory functions are called with the result type as first
+argument, and the callback functions expected argument types as the remaining
+arguments.
+
+I will present an example here which uses the standard C library's :func:`qsort`
+function, this is used to sort items with the help of a callback function.
+:func:`qsort` will be used to sort an array of integers::
+
+ >>> IntArray5 = c_int * 5
+ >>> ia = IntArray5(5, 1, 7, 33, 99)
+ >>> qsort = libc.qsort
+ >>> qsort.restype = None
+ >>>
+
+:func:`qsort` must be called with a pointer to the data to sort, the number of
+items in the data array, the size of one item, and a pointer to the comparison
+function, the callback. The callback will then be called with two pointers to
+items, and it must return a negative integer if the first item is smaller than
+the second, a zero if they are equal, and a positive integer else.
+
+So our callback function receives pointers to integers, and must return an
+integer. First we create the ``type`` for the callback function::
+
+ >>> CMPFUNC = CFUNCTYPE(c_int, POINTER(c_int), POINTER(c_int))
+ >>>
+
+For the first implementation of the callback function, we simply print the
+arguments we get, and return 0 (incremental development ;-)::
+
+ >>> def py_cmp_func(a, b):
+ ... print "py_cmp_func", a, b
+ ... return 0
+ ...
+ >>>
+
+Create the C callable callback::
+
+ >>> cmp_func = CMPFUNC(py_cmp_func)
+ >>>
+
+And we're ready to go::
+
+ >>> qsort(ia, len(ia), sizeof(c_int), cmp_func) # doctest: +WINDOWS
+ py_cmp_func <ctypes.LP_c_long object at 0x00...> <ctypes.LP_c_long object at 0x00...>
+ py_cmp_func <ctypes.LP_c_long object at 0x00...> <ctypes.LP_c_long object at 0x00...>
+ py_cmp_func <ctypes.LP_c_long object at 0x00...> <ctypes.LP_c_long object at 0x00...>
+ py_cmp_func <ctypes.LP_c_long object at 0x00...> <ctypes.LP_c_long object at 0x00...>
+ py_cmp_func <ctypes.LP_c_long object at 0x00...> <ctypes.LP_c_long object at 0x00...>
+ py_cmp_func <ctypes.LP_c_long object at 0x00...> <ctypes.LP_c_long object at 0x00...>
+ py_cmp_func <ctypes.LP_c_long object at 0x00...> <ctypes.LP_c_long object at 0x00...>
+ py_cmp_func <ctypes.LP_c_long object at 0x00...> <ctypes.LP_c_long object at 0x00...>
+ py_cmp_func <ctypes.LP_c_long object at 0x00...> <ctypes.LP_c_long object at 0x00...>
+ py_cmp_func <ctypes.LP_c_long object at 0x00...> <ctypes.LP_c_long object at 0x00...>
+ >>>
+
+We know how to access the contents of a pointer, so lets redefine our callback::
+
+ >>> def py_cmp_func(a, b):
+ ... print "py_cmp_func", a[0], b[0]
+ ... return 0
+ ...
+ >>> cmp_func = CMPFUNC(py_cmp_func)
+ >>>
+
+Here is what we get on Windows::
+
+ >>> qsort(ia, len(ia), sizeof(c_int), cmp_func) # doctest: +WINDOWS
+ py_cmp_func 7 1
+ py_cmp_func 33 1
+ py_cmp_func 99 1
+ py_cmp_func 5 1
+ py_cmp_func 7 5
+ py_cmp_func 33 5
+ py_cmp_func 99 5
+ py_cmp_func 7 99
+ py_cmp_func 33 99
+ py_cmp_func 7 33
+ >>>
+
+It is funny to see that on linux the sort function seems to work much more
+efficiently, it is doing less comparisons::
+
+ >>> qsort(ia, len(ia), sizeof(c_int), cmp_func) # doctest: +LINUX
+ py_cmp_func 5 1
+ py_cmp_func 33 99
+ py_cmp_func 7 33
+ py_cmp_func 5 7
+ py_cmp_func 1 7
+ >>>
+
+Ah, we're nearly done! The last step is to actually compare the two items and
+return a useful result::
+
+ >>> def py_cmp_func(a, b):
+ ... print "py_cmp_func", a[0], b[0]
+ ... return a[0] - b[0]
+ ...
+ >>>
+
+Final run on Windows::
+
+ >>> qsort(ia, len(ia), sizeof(c_int), CMPFUNC(py_cmp_func)) # doctest: +WINDOWS
+ py_cmp_func 33 7
+ py_cmp_func 99 33
+ py_cmp_func 5 99
+ py_cmp_func 1 99
+ py_cmp_func 33 7
+ py_cmp_func 1 33
+ py_cmp_func 5 33
+ py_cmp_func 5 7
+ py_cmp_func 1 7
+ py_cmp_func 5 1
+ >>>
+
+and on Linux::
+
+ >>> qsort(ia, len(ia), sizeof(c_int), CMPFUNC(py_cmp_func)) # doctest: +LINUX
+ py_cmp_func 5 1
+ py_cmp_func 33 99
+ py_cmp_func 7 33
+ py_cmp_func 1 7
+ py_cmp_func 5 7
+ >>>
+
+It is quite interesting to see that the Windows :func:`qsort` function needs
+more comparisons than the linux version!
+
+As we can easily check, our array is sorted now::
+
+ >>> for i in ia: print i,
+ ...
+ 1 5 7 33 99
+ >>>
+
+**Important note for callback functions:**
+
+Make sure you keep references to CFUNCTYPE objects as long as they are used from
+C code. :mod:`ctypes` doesn't, and if you don't, they may be garbage collected,
+crashing your program when a callback is made.
+
+
+.. _ctypes-accessing-values-exported-from-dlls:
+
+Accessing values exported from dlls
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Some shared libraries not only export functions, they also export variables. An
+example in the Python library itself is the ``Py_OptimizeFlag``, an integer set
+to 0, 1, or 2, depending on the :option:`-O` or :option:`-OO` flag given on
+startup.
+
+:mod:`ctypes` can access values like this with the :meth:`in_dll` class methods of
+the type. *pythonapi* is a predefined symbol giving access to the Python C
+api::
+
+ >>> opt_flag = c_int.in_dll(pythonapi, "Py_OptimizeFlag")
+ >>> print opt_flag
+ c_long(0)
+ >>>
+
+If the interpreter would have been started with :option:`-O`, the sample would
+have printed ``c_long(1)``, or ``c_long(2)`` if :option:`-OO` would have been
+specified.
+
+An extended example which also demonstrates the use of pointers accesses the
+``PyImport_FrozenModules`` pointer exported by Python.
+
+Quoting the Python docs: *This pointer is initialized to point to an array of
+"struct _frozen" records, terminated by one whose members are all NULL or zero.
+When a frozen module is imported, it is searched in this table. Third-party code
+could play tricks with this to provide a dynamically created collection of
+frozen modules.*
+
+So manipulating this pointer could even prove useful. To restrict the example
+size, we show only how this table can be read with :mod:`ctypes`::
+
+ >>> from ctypes import *
+ >>>
+ >>> class struct_frozen(Structure):
+ ... _fields_ = [("name", c_char_p),
+ ... ("code", POINTER(c_ubyte)),
+ ... ("size", c_int)]
+ ...
+ >>>
+
+We have defined the ``struct _frozen`` data type, so we can get the pointer to
+the table::
+
+ >>> FrozenTable = POINTER(struct_frozen)
+ >>> table = FrozenTable.in_dll(pythonapi, "PyImport_FrozenModules")
+ >>>
+
+Since ``table`` is a ``pointer`` to the array of ``struct_frozen`` records, we
+can iterate over it, but we just have to make sure that our loop terminates,
+because pointers have no size. Sooner or later it would probably crash with an
+access violation or whatever, so it's better to break out of the loop when we
+hit the NULL entry::
+
+ >>> for item in table:
+ ... print item.name, item.size
+ ... if item.name is None:
+ ... break
+ ...
+ __hello__ 104
+ __phello__ -104
+ __phello__.spam 104
+ None 0
+ >>>
+
+The fact that standard Python has a frozen module and a frozen package
+(indicated by the negative size member) is not well known, it is only used for
+testing. Try it out with ``import __hello__`` for example.
+
+
+.. _ctypes-surprises:
+
+Surprises
+^^^^^^^^^
+
+There are some edge cases in :mod:`ctypes` where you might expect something
+other than what actually happens.
+
+Consider the following example::
+
+ >>> from ctypes import *
+ >>> class POINT(Structure):
+ ... _fields_ = ("x", c_int), ("y", c_int)
+ ...
+ >>> class RECT(Structure):
+ ... _fields_ = ("a", POINT), ("b", POINT)
+ ...
+ >>> p1 = POINT(1, 2)
+ >>> p2 = POINT(3, 4)
+ >>> rc = RECT(p1, p2)
+ >>> print rc.a.x, rc.a.y, rc.b.x, rc.b.y
+ 1 2 3 4
+ >>> # now swap the two points
+ >>> rc.a, rc.b = rc.b, rc.a
+ >>> print rc.a.x, rc.a.y, rc.b.x, rc.b.y
+ 3 4 3 4
+ >>>
+
+Hm. We certainly expected the last statement to print ``3 4 1 2``. What
+happened? Here are the steps of the ``rc.a, rc.b = rc.b, rc.a`` line above::
+
+ >>> temp0, temp1 = rc.b, rc.a
+ >>> rc.a = temp0
+ >>> rc.b = temp1
+ >>>
+
+Note that ``temp0`` and ``temp1`` are objects still using the internal buffer of
+the ``rc`` object above. So executing ``rc.a = temp0`` copies the buffer
+contents of ``temp0`` into ``rc`` 's buffer. This, in turn, changes the
+contents of ``temp1``. So, the last assignment ``rc.b = temp1``, doesn't have
+the expected effect.
+
+Keep in mind that retrieving sub-objects from Structure, Unions, and Arrays
+doesn't *copy* the sub-object, instead it retrieves a wrapper object accessing
+the root-object's underlying buffer.
+
+Another example that may behave different from what one would expect is this::
+
+ >>> s = c_char_p()
+ >>> s.value = "abc def ghi"
+ >>> s.value
+ 'abc def ghi'
+ >>> s.value is s.value
+ False
+ >>>
+
+Why is it printing ``False``? ctypes instances are objects containing a memory
+block plus some :term:`descriptor`\s accessing the contents of the memory.
+Storing a Python object in the memory block does not store the object itself,
+instead the ``contents`` of the object is stored. Accessing the contents again
+constructs a new Python object each time!
+
+
+.. _ctypes-variable-sized-data-types:
+
+Variable-sized data types
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+:mod:`ctypes` provides some support for variable-sized arrays and structures.
+
+The :func:`resize` function can be used to resize the memory buffer of an
+existing ctypes object. The function takes the object as first argument, and
+the requested size in bytes as the second argument. The memory block cannot be
+made smaller than the natural memory block specified by the objects type, a
+:exc:`ValueError` is raised if this is tried::
+
+ >>> short_array = (c_short * 4)()
+ >>> print sizeof(short_array)
+ 8
+ >>> resize(short_array, 4)
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ ...
+ ValueError: minimum size is 8
+ >>> resize(short_array, 32)
+ >>> sizeof(short_array)
+ 32
+ >>> sizeof(type(short_array))
+ 8
+ >>>
+
+This is nice and fine, but how would one access the additional elements
+contained in this array? Since the type still only knows about 4 elements, we
+get errors accessing other elements::
+
+ >>> short_array[:]
+ [0, 0, 0, 0]
+ >>> short_array[7]
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ ...
+ IndexError: invalid index
+ >>>
+
+Another way to use variable-sized data types with :mod:`ctypes` is to use the
+dynamic nature of Python, and (re-)define the data type after the required size
+is already known, on a case by case basis.
+
+
+.. _ctypes-ctypes-reference:
+
+ctypes reference
+----------------
+
+
+.. _ctypes-finding-shared-libraries:
+
+Finding shared libraries
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+When programming in a compiled language, shared libraries are accessed when
+compiling/linking a program, and when the program is run.
+
+The purpose of the :func:`find_library` function is to locate a library in a way
+similar to what the compiler does (on platforms with several versions of a
+shared library the most recent should be loaded), while the ctypes library
+loaders act like when a program is run, and call the runtime loader directly.
+
+The :mod:`ctypes.util` module provides a function which can help to determine the
+library to load.
+
+
+.. data:: find_library(name)
+ :module: ctypes.util
+ :noindex:
+
+ Try to find a library and return a pathname. *name* is the library name without
+ any prefix like *lib*, suffix like ``.so``, ``.dylib`` or version number (this
+ is the form used for the posix linker option :option:`-l`). If no library can
+ be found, returns ``None``.
+
+The exact functionality is system dependent.
+
+On Linux, :func:`find_library` tries to run external programs
+(``/sbin/ldconfig``, ``gcc``, and ``objdump``) to find the library file. It
+returns the filename of the library file. Here are some examples::
+
+ >>> from ctypes.util import find_library
+ >>> find_library("m")
+ 'libm.so.6'
+ >>> find_library("c")
+ 'libc.so.6'
+ >>> find_library("bz2")
+ 'libbz2.so.1.0'
+ >>>
+
+On OS X, :func:`find_library` tries several predefined naming schemes and paths
+to locate the library, and returns a full pathname if successful::
+
+ >>> from ctypes.util import find_library
+ >>> find_library("c")
+ '/usr/lib/libc.dylib'
+ >>> find_library("m")
+ '/usr/lib/libm.dylib'
+ >>> find_library("bz2")
+ '/usr/lib/libbz2.dylib'
+ >>> find_library("AGL")
+ '/System/Library/Frameworks/AGL.framework/AGL'
+ >>>
+
+On Windows, :func:`find_library` searches along the system search path, and
+returns the full pathname, but since there is no predefined naming scheme a call
+like ``find_library("c")`` will fail and return ``None``.
+
+If wrapping a shared library with :mod:`ctypes`, it *may* be better to determine
+the shared library name at development type, and hardcode that into the wrapper
+module instead of using :func:`find_library` to locate the library at runtime.
+
+
+.. _ctypes-loading-shared-libraries:
+
+Loading shared libraries
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+There are several ways to loaded shared libraries into the Python process. One
+way is to instantiate one of the following classes:
+
+
+.. class:: CDLL(name, mode=DEFAULT_MODE, handle=None, use_errno=False, use_last_error=False)
+
+ Instances of this class represent loaded shared libraries. Functions in these
+ libraries use the standard C calling convention, and are assumed to return
+ :c:type:`int`.
+
+
+.. class:: OleDLL(name, mode=DEFAULT_MODE, handle=None, use_errno=False, use_last_error=False)
+
+ Windows only: Instances of this class represent loaded shared libraries,
+ functions in these libraries use the ``stdcall`` calling convention, and are
+ assumed to return the windows specific :class:`HRESULT` code. :class:`HRESULT`
+ values contain information specifying whether the function call failed or
+ succeeded, together with additional error code. If the return value signals a
+ failure, an :class:`WindowsError` is automatically raised.
+
+
+.. class:: WinDLL(name, mode=DEFAULT_MODE, handle=None, use_errno=False, use_last_error=False)
+
+ Windows only: Instances of this class represent loaded shared libraries,
+ functions in these libraries use the ``stdcall`` calling convention, and are
+ assumed to return :c:type:`int` by default.
+
+ On Windows CE only the standard calling convention is used, for convenience the
+ :class:`WinDLL` and :class:`OleDLL` use the standard calling convention on this
+ platform.
+
+The Python :term:`global interpreter lock` is released before calling any
+function exported by these libraries, and reacquired afterwards.
+
+
+.. class:: PyDLL(name, mode=DEFAULT_MODE, handle=None)
+
+ Instances of this class behave like :class:`CDLL` instances, except that the
+ Python GIL is *not* released during the function call, and after the function
+ execution the Python error flag is checked. If the error flag is set, a Python
+ exception is raised.
+
+ Thus, this is only useful to call Python C api functions directly.
+
+All these classes can be instantiated by calling them with at least one
+argument, the pathname of the shared library. If you have an existing handle to
+an already loaded shared library, it can be passed as the ``handle`` named
+parameter, otherwise the underlying platforms ``dlopen`` or ``LoadLibrary``
+function is used to load the library into the process, and to get a handle to
+it.
+
+The *mode* parameter can be used to specify how the library is loaded. For
+details, consult the :manpage:`dlopen(3)` manpage, on Windows, *mode* is
+ignored.
+
+The *use_errno* parameter, when set to True, enables a ctypes mechanism that
+allows to access the system :data:`errno` error number in a safe way.
+:mod:`ctypes` maintains a thread-local copy of the systems :data:`errno`
+variable; if you call foreign functions created with ``use_errno=True`` then the
+:data:`errno` value before the function call is swapped with the ctypes private
+copy, the same happens immediately after the function call.
+
+The function :func:`ctypes.get_errno` returns the value of the ctypes private
+copy, and the function :func:`ctypes.set_errno` changes the ctypes private copy
+to a new value and returns the former value.
+
+The *use_last_error* parameter, when set to True, enables the same mechanism for
+the Windows error code which is managed by the :func:`GetLastError` and
+:func:`SetLastError` Windows API functions; :func:`ctypes.get_last_error` and
+:func:`ctypes.set_last_error` are used to request and change the ctypes private
+copy of the windows error code.
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.6
+ The *use_last_error* and *use_errno* optional parameters were added.
+
+.. data:: RTLD_GLOBAL
+ :noindex:
+
+ Flag to use as *mode* parameter. On platforms where this flag is not available,
+ it is defined as the integer zero.
+
+
+.. data:: RTLD_LOCAL
+ :noindex:
+
+ Flag to use as *mode* parameter. On platforms where this is not available, it
+ is the same as *RTLD_GLOBAL*.
+
+
+.. data:: DEFAULT_MODE
+ :noindex:
+
+ The default mode which is used to load shared libraries. On OSX 10.3, this is
+ *RTLD_GLOBAL*, otherwise it is the same as *RTLD_LOCAL*.
+
+Instances of these classes have no public methods, however :meth:`__getattr__`
+and :meth:`__getitem__` have special behavior: functions exported by the shared
+library can be accessed as attributes of by index. Please note that both
+:meth:`__getattr__` and :meth:`__getitem__` cache their result, so calling them
+repeatedly returns the same object each time.
+
+The following public attributes are available, their name starts with an
+underscore to not clash with exported function names:
+
+
+.. attribute:: PyDLL._handle
+
+ The system handle used to access the library.
+
+
+.. attribute:: PyDLL._name
+
+ The name of the library passed in the constructor.
+
+Shared libraries can also be loaded by using one of the prefabricated objects,
+which are instances of the :class:`LibraryLoader` class, either by calling the
+:meth:`LoadLibrary` method, or by retrieving the library as attribute of the
+loader instance.
+
+
+.. class:: LibraryLoader(dlltype)
+
+ Class which loads shared libraries. *dlltype* should be one of the
+ :class:`CDLL`, :class:`PyDLL`, :class:`WinDLL`, or :class:`OleDLL` types.
+
+ :meth:`__getattr__` has special behavior: It allows to load a shared library by
+ accessing it as attribute of a library loader instance. The result is cached,
+ so repeated attribute accesses return the same library each time.
+
+
+ .. method:: LoadLibrary(name)
+
+ Load a shared library into the process and return it. This method always
+ returns a new instance of the library.
+
+These prefabricated library loaders are available:
+
+
+.. data:: cdll
+ :noindex:
+
+ Creates :class:`CDLL` instances.
+
+
+.. data:: windll
+ :noindex:
+
+ Windows only: Creates :class:`WinDLL` instances.
+
+
+.. data:: oledll
+ :noindex:
+
+ Windows only: Creates :class:`OleDLL` instances.
+
+
+.. data:: pydll
+ :noindex:
+
+ Creates :class:`PyDLL` instances.
+
+For accessing the C Python api directly, a ready-to-use Python shared library
+object is available:
+
+
+.. data:: pythonapi
+ :noindex:
+
+ An instance of :class:`PyDLL` that exposes Python C API functions as
+ attributes. Note that all these functions are assumed to return C
+ :c:type:`int`, which is of course not always the truth, so you have to assign
+ the correct :attr:`restype` attribute to use these functions.
+
+
+.. _ctypes-foreign-functions:
+
+Foreign functions
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+As explained in the previous section, foreign functions can be accessed as
+attributes of loaded shared libraries. The function objects created in this way
+by default accept any number of arguments, accept any ctypes data instances as
+arguments, and return the default result type specified by the library loader.
+They are instances of a private class:
+
+
+.. class:: _FuncPtr
+
+ Base class for C callable foreign functions.
+
+ Instances of foreign functions are also C compatible data types; they
+ represent C function pointers.
+
+ This behavior can be customized by assigning to special attributes of the
+ foreign function object.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: restype
+
+ Assign a ctypes type to specify the result type of the foreign function.
+ Use ``None`` for :c:type:`void`, a function not returning anything.
+
+ It is possible to assign a callable Python object that is not a ctypes
+ type, in this case the function is assumed to return a C :c:type:`int`, and
+ the callable will be called with this integer, allowing to do further
+ processing or error checking. Using this is deprecated, for more flexible
+ post processing or error checking use a ctypes data type as
+ :attr:`restype` and assign a callable to the :attr:`errcheck` attribute.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: argtypes
+
+ Assign a tuple of ctypes types to specify the argument types that the
+ function accepts. Functions using the ``stdcall`` calling convention can
+ only be called with the same number of arguments as the length of this
+ tuple; functions using the C calling convention accept additional,
+ unspecified arguments as well.
+
+ When a foreign function is called, each actual argument is passed to the
+ :meth:`from_param` class method of the items in the :attr:`argtypes`
+ tuple, this method allows to adapt the actual argument to an object that
+ the foreign function accepts. For example, a :class:`c_char_p` item in
+ the :attr:`argtypes` tuple will convert a unicode string passed as
+ argument into an byte string using ctypes conversion rules.
+
+ New: It is now possible to put items in argtypes which are not ctypes
+ types, but each item must have a :meth:`from_param` method which returns a
+ value usable as argument (integer, string, ctypes instance). This allows
+ to define adapters that can adapt custom objects as function parameters.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: errcheck
+
+ Assign a Python function or another callable to this attribute. The
+ callable will be called with three or more arguments:
+
+ .. function:: callable(result, func, arguments)
+ :noindex:
+
+ *result* is what the foreign function returns, as specified by the
+ :attr:`restype` attribute.
+
+ *func* is the foreign function object itself, this allows to reuse the
+ same callable object to check or post process the results of several
+ functions.
+
+ *arguments* is a tuple containing the parameters originally passed to
+ the function call, this allows to specialize the behavior on the
+ arguments used.
+
+ The object that this function returns will be returned from the
+ foreign function call, but it can also check the result value
+ and raise an exception if the foreign function call failed.
+
+
+.. exception:: ArgumentError()
+
+ This exception is raised when a foreign function call cannot convert one of the
+ passed arguments.
+
+
+.. _ctypes-function-prototypes:
+
+Function prototypes
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Foreign functions can also be created by instantiating function prototypes.
+Function prototypes are similar to function prototypes in C; they describe a
+function (return type, argument types, calling convention) without defining an
+implementation. The factory functions must be called with the desired result
+type and the argument types of the function.
+
+
+.. function:: CFUNCTYPE(restype, *argtypes, use_errno=False, use_last_error=False)
+
+ The returned function prototype creates functions that use the standard C
+ calling convention. The function will release the GIL during the call. If
+ *use_errno* is set to True, the ctypes private copy of the system
+ :data:`errno` variable is exchanged with the real :data:`errno` value before
+ and after the call; *use_last_error* does the same for the Windows error
+ code.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ The optional *use_errno* and *use_last_error* parameters were added.
+
+
+.. function:: WINFUNCTYPE(restype, *argtypes, use_errno=False, use_last_error=False)
+
+ Windows only: The returned function prototype creates functions that use the
+ ``stdcall`` calling convention, except on Windows CE where
+ :func:`WINFUNCTYPE` is the same as :func:`CFUNCTYPE`. The function will
+ release the GIL during the call. *use_errno* and *use_last_error* have the
+ same meaning as above.
+
+
+.. function:: PYFUNCTYPE(restype, *argtypes)
+
+ The returned function prototype creates functions that use the Python calling
+ convention. The function will *not* release the GIL during the call.
+
+Function prototypes created by these factory functions can be instantiated in
+different ways, depending on the type and number of the parameters in the call:
+
+
+ .. function:: prototype(address)
+ :noindex:
+ :module:
+
+ Returns a foreign function at the specified address which must be an integer.
+
+
+ .. function:: prototype(callable)
+ :noindex:
+ :module:
+
+ Create a C callable function (a callback function) from a Python *callable*.
+
+
+ .. function:: prototype(func_spec[, paramflags])
+ :noindex:
+ :module:
+
+ Returns a foreign function exported by a shared library. *func_spec* must be a
+ 2-tuple ``(name_or_ordinal, library)``. The first item is the name of the
+ exported function as string, or the ordinal of the exported function as small
+ integer. The second item is the shared library instance.
+
+
+ .. function:: prototype(vtbl_index, name[, paramflags[, iid]])
+ :noindex:
+ :module:
+
+ Returns a foreign function that will call a COM method. *vtbl_index* is the
+ index into the virtual function table, a small non-negative integer. *name* is
+ name of the COM method. *iid* is an optional pointer to the interface identifier
+ which is used in extended error reporting.
+
+ COM methods use a special calling convention: They require a pointer to the COM
+ interface as first argument, in addition to those parameters that are specified
+ in the :attr:`argtypes` tuple.
+
+ The optional *paramflags* parameter creates foreign function wrappers with much
+ more functionality than the features described above.
+
+ *paramflags* must be a tuple of the same length as :attr:`argtypes`.
+
+ Each item in this tuple contains further information about a parameter, it must
+ be a tuple containing one, two, or three items.
+
+ The first item is an integer containing a combination of direction
+ flags for the parameter:
+
+ 1
+ Specifies an input parameter to the function.
+
+ 2
+ Output parameter. The foreign function fills in a value.
+
+ 4
+ Input parameter which defaults to the integer zero.
+
+ The optional second item is the parameter name as string. If this is specified,
+ the foreign function can be called with named parameters.
+
+ The optional third item is the default value for this parameter.
+
+This example demonstrates how to wrap the Windows ``MessageBoxA`` function so
+that it supports default parameters and named arguments. The C declaration from
+the windows header file is this::
+
+ WINUSERAPI int WINAPI
+ MessageBoxA(
+ HWND hWnd ,
+ LPCSTR lpText,
+ LPCSTR lpCaption,
+ UINT uType);
+
+Here is the wrapping with :mod:`ctypes`::
+
+ >>> from ctypes import c_int, WINFUNCTYPE, windll
+ >>> from ctypes.wintypes import HWND, LPCSTR, UINT
+ >>> prototype = WINFUNCTYPE(c_int, HWND, LPCSTR, LPCSTR, UINT)
+ >>> paramflags = (1, "hwnd", 0), (1, "text", "Hi"), (1, "caption", None), (1, "flags", 0)
+ >>> MessageBox = prototype(("MessageBoxA", windll.user32), paramflags)
+ >>>
+
+The MessageBox foreign function can now be called in these ways::
+
+ >>> MessageBox()
+ >>> MessageBox(text="Spam, spam, spam")
+ >>> MessageBox(flags=2, text="foo bar")
+ >>>
+
+A second example demonstrates output parameters. The win32 ``GetWindowRect``
+function retrieves the dimensions of a specified window by copying them into
+``RECT`` structure that the caller has to supply. Here is the C declaration::
+
+ WINUSERAPI BOOL WINAPI
+ GetWindowRect(
+ HWND hWnd,
+ LPRECT lpRect);
+
+Here is the wrapping with :mod:`ctypes`::
+
+ >>> from ctypes import POINTER, WINFUNCTYPE, windll, WinError
+ >>> from ctypes.wintypes import BOOL, HWND, RECT
+ >>> prototype = WINFUNCTYPE(BOOL, HWND, POINTER(RECT))
+ >>> paramflags = (1, "hwnd"), (2, "lprect")
+ >>> GetWindowRect = prototype(("GetWindowRect", windll.user32), paramflags)
+ >>>
+
+Functions with output parameters will automatically return the output parameter
+value if there is a single one, or a tuple containing the output parameter
+values when there are more than one, so the GetWindowRect function now returns a
+RECT instance, when called.
+
+Output parameters can be combined with the :attr:`errcheck` protocol to do
+further output processing and error checking. The win32 ``GetWindowRect`` api
+function returns a ``BOOL`` to signal success or failure, so this function could
+do the error checking, and raises an exception when the api call failed::
+
+ >>> def errcheck(result, func, args):
+ ... if not result:
+ ... raise WinError()
+ ... return args
+ ...
+ >>> GetWindowRect.errcheck = errcheck
+ >>>
+
+If the :attr:`errcheck` function returns the argument tuple it receives
+unchanged, :mod:`ctypes` continues the normal processing it does on the output
+parameters. If you want to return a tuple of window coordinates instead of a
+``RECT`` instance, you can retrieve the fields in the function and return them
+instead, the normal processing will no longer take place::
+
+ >>> def errcheck(result, func, args):
+ ... if not result:
+ ... raise WinError()
+ ... rc = args[1]
+ ... return rc.left, rc.top, rc.bottom, rc.right
+ ...
+ >>> GetWindowRect.errcheck = errcheck
+ >>>
+
+
+.. _ctypes-utility-functions:
+
+Utility functions
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+
+.. function:: addressof(obj)
+
+ Returns the address of the memory buffer as integer. *obj* must be an
+ instance of a ctypes type.
+
+
+.. function:: alignment(obj_or_type)
+
+ Returns the alignment requirements of a ctypes type. *obj_or_type* must be a
+ ctypes type or instance.
+
+
+.. function:: byref(obj[, offset])
+
+ Returns a light-weight pointer to *obj*, which must be an instance of a
+ ctypes type. *offset* defaults to zero, and must be an integer that will be
+ added to the internal pointer value.
+
+ ``byref(obj, offset)`` corresponds to this C code::
+
+ (((char *)&obj) + offset)
+
+ The returned object can only be used as a foreign function call
+ parameter. It behaves similar to ``pointer(obj)``, but the
+ construction is a lot faster.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+ The *offset* optional argument was added.
+
+
+.. function:: cast(obj, type)
+
+ This function is similar to the cast operator in C. It returns a new
+ instance of *type* which points to the same memory block as *obj*. *type*
+ must be a pointer type, and *obj* must be an object that can be interpreted
+ as a pointer.
+
+
+.. function:: create_string_buffer(init_or_size[, size])
+
+ This function creates a mutable character buffer. The returned object is a
+ ctypes array of :class:`c_char`.
+
+ *init_or_size* must be an integer which specifies the size of the array, or a
+ string which will be used to initialize the array items.
+
+ If a string is specified as first argument, the buffer is made one item larger
+ than the length of the string so that the last element in the array is a NUL
+ termination character. An integer can be passed as second argument which allows
+ to specify the size of the array if the length of the string should not be used.
+
+ If the first parameter is a unicode string, it is converted into an 8-bit string
+ according to ctypes conversion rules.
+
+
+.. function:: create_unicode_buffer(init_or_size[, size])
+
+ This function creates a mutable unicode character buffer. The returned object is
+ a ctypes array of :class:`c_wchar`.
+
+ *init_or_size* must be an integer which specifies the size of the array, or a
+ unicode string which will be used to initialize the array items.
+
+ If a unicode string is specified as first argument, the buffer is made one item
+ larger than the length of the string so that the last element in the array is a
+ NUL termination character. An integer can be passed as second argument which
+ allows to specify the size of the array if the length of the string should not
+ be used.
+
+ If the first parameter is a 8-bit string, it is converted into an unicode string
+ according to ctypes conversion rules.
+
+
+.. function:: DllCanUnloadNow()
+
+ Windows only: This function is a hook which allows to implement in-process
+ COM servers with ctypes. It is called from the DllCanUnloadNow function that
+ the _ctypes extension dll exports.
+
+
+.. function:: DllGetClassObject()
+
+ Windows only: This function is a hook which allows to implement in-process
+ COM servers with ctypes. It is called from the DllGetClassObject function
+ that the ``_ctypes`` extension dll exports.
+
+
+.. function:: find_library(name)
+ :module: ctypes.util
+
+ Try to find a library and return a pathname. *name* is the library name
+ without any prefix like ``lib``, suffix like ``.so``, ``.dylib`` or version
+ number (this is the form used for the posix linker option :option:`-l`). If
+ no library can be found, returns ``None``.
+
+ The exact functionality is system dependent.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ Windows only: ``find_library("m")`` or ``find_library("c")`` return the
+ result of a call to ``find_msvcrt()``.
+
+
+.. function:: find_msvcrt()
+ :module: ctypes.util
+
+ Windows only: return the filename of the VC runtype library used by Python,
+ and by the extension modules. If the name of the library cannot be
+ determined, ``None`` is returned.
+
+ If you need to free memory, for example, allocated by an extension module
+ with a call to the ``free(void *)``, it is important that you use the
+ function in the same library that allocated the memory.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: FormatError([code])
+
+ Windows only: Returns a textual description of the error code *code*. If no
+ error code is specified, the last error code is used by calling the Windows
+ api function GetLastError.
+
+
+.. function:: GetLastError()
+
+ Windows only: Returns the last error code set by Windows in the calling thread.
+ This function calls the Windows `GetLastError()` function directly,
+ it does not return the ctypes-private copy of the error code.
+
+.. function:: get_errno()
+
+ Returns the current value of the ctypes-private copy of the system
+ :data:`errno` variable in the calling thread.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+.. function:: get_last_error()
+
+ Windows only: returns the current value of the ctypes-private copy of the system
+ :data:`LastError` variable in the calling thread.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+.. function:: memmove(dst, src, count)
+
+ Same as the standard C memmove library function: copies *count* bytes from
+ *src* to *dst*. *dst* and *src* must be integers or ctypes instances that can
+ be converted to pointers.
+
+
+.. function:: memset(dst, c, count)
+
+ Same as the standard C memset library function: fills the memory block at
+ address *dst* with *count* bytes of value *c*. *dst* must be an integer
+ specifying an address, or a ctypes instance.
+
+
+.. function:: POINTER(type)
+
+ This factory function creates and returns a new ctypes pointer type. Pointer
+ types are cached an reused internally, so calling this function repeatedly is
+ cheap. *type* must be a ctypes type.
+
+
+.. function:: pointer(obj)
+
+ This function creates a new pointer instance, pointing to *obj*. The returned
+ object is of the type ``POINTER(type(obj))``.
+
+ Note: If you just want to pass a pointer to an object to a foreign function
+ call, you should use ``byref(obj)`` which is much faster.
+
+
+.. function:: resize(obj, size)
+
+ This function resizes the internal memory buffer of *obj*, which must be an
+ instance of a ctypes type. It is not possible to make the buffer smaller
+ than the native size of the objects type, as given by ``sizeof(type(obj))``,
+ but it is possible to enlarge the buffer.
+
+
+.. function:: set_conversion_mode(encoding, errors)
+
+ This function sets the rules that ctypes objects use when converting between
+ 8-bit strings and unicode strings. *encoding* must be a string specifying an
+ encoding, like ``'utf-8'`` or ``'mbcs'``, *errors* must be a string
+ specifying the error handling on encoding/decoding errors. Examples of
+ possible values are ``"strict"``, ``"replace"``, or ``"ignore"``.
+
+ :func:`set_conversion_mode` returns a 2-tuple containing the previous
+ conversion rules. On windows, the initial conversion rules are ``('mbcs',
+ 'ignore')``, on other systems ``('ascii', 'strict')``.
+
+
+.. function:: set_errno(value)
+
+ Set the current value of the ctypes-private copy of the system :data:`errno`
+ variable in the calling thread to *value* and return the previous value.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: set_last_error(value)
+
+ Windows only: set the current value of the ctypes-private copy of the system
+ :data:`LastError` variable in the calling thread to *value* and return the
+ previous value.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: sizeof(obj_or_type)
+
+ Returns the size in bytes of a ctypes type or instance memory buffer. Does the
+ same as the C ``sizeof()`` function.
+
+
+.. function:: string_at(address[, size])
+
+ This function returns the string starting at memory address *address*. If size
+ is specified, it is used as size, otherwise the string is assumed to be
+ zero-terminated.
+
+
+.. function:: WinError(code=None, descr=None)
+
+ Windows only: this function is probably the worst-named thing in ctypes. It
+ creates an instance of WindowsError. If *code* is not specified,
+ ``GetLastError`` is called to determine the error code. If ``descr`` is not
+ specified, :func:`FormatError` is called to get a textual description of the
+ error.
+
+
+.. function:: wstring_at(address[, size])
+
+ This function returns the wide character string starting at memory address
+ *address* as unicode string. If *size* is specified, it is used as the
+ number of characters of the string, otherwise the string is assumed to be
+ zero-terminated.
+
+
+.. _ctypes-data-types:
+
+Data types
+^^^^^^^^^^
+
+
+.. class:: _CData
+
+ This non-public class is the common base class of all ctypes data types.
+ Among other things, all ctypes type instances contain a memory block that
+ hold C compatible data; the address of the memory block is returned by the
+ :func:`addressof` helper function. Another instance variable is exposed as
+ :attr:`_objects`; this contains other Python objects that need to be kept
+ alive in case the memory block contains pointers.
+
+ Common methods of ctypes data types, these are all class methods (to be
+ exact, they are methods of the :term:`metaclass`):
+
+
+ .. method:: _CData.from_buffer(source[, offset])
+
+ This method returns a ctypes instance that shares the buffer of the
+ *source* object. The *source* object must support the writeable buffer
+ interface. The optional *offset* parameter specifies an offset into the
+ source buffer in bytes; the default is zero. If the source buffer is not
+ large enough a :exc:`ValueError` is raised.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+ .. method:: _CData.from_buffer_copy(source[, offset])
+
+ This method creates a ctypes instance, copying the buffer from the
+ *source* object buffer which must be readable. The optional *offset*
+ parameter specifies an offset into the source buffer in bytes; the default
+ is zero. If the source buffer is not large enough a :exc:`ValueError` is
+ raised.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+ .. method:: from_address(address)
+
+ This method returns a ctypes type instance using the memory specified by
+ *address* which must be an integer.
+
+
+ .. method:: from_param(obj)
+
+ This method adapts *obj* to a ctypes type. It is called with the actual
+ object used in a foreign function call when the type is present in the
+ foreign function's :attr:`argtypes` tuple; it must return an object that
+ can be used as a function call parameter.
+
+ All ctypes data types have a default implementation of this classmethod
+ that normally returns *obj* if that is an instance of the type. Some
+ types accept other objects as well.
+
+
+ .. method:: in_dll(library, name)
+
+ This method returns a ctypes type instance exported by a shared
+ library. *name* is the name of the symbol that exports the data, *library*
+ is the loaded shared library.
+
+
+ Common instance variables of ctypes data types:
+
+ .. attribute:: _b_base_
+
+ Sometimes ctypes data instances do not own the memory block they contain,
+ instead they share part of the memory block of a base object. The
+ :attr:`_b_base_` read-only member is the root ctypes object that owns the
+ memory block.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: _b_needsfree_
+
+ This read-only variable is true when the ctypes data instance has
+ allocated the memory block itself, false otherwise.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: _objects
+
+ This member is either ``None`` or a dictionary containing Python objects
+ that need to be kept alive so that the memory block contents is kept
+ valid. This object is only exposed for debugging; never modify the
+ contents of this dictionary.
+
+
+.. _ctypes-fundamental-data-types-2:
+
+Fundamental data types
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+
+.. class:: _SimpleCData
+
+ This non-public class is the base class of all fundamental ctypes data
+ types. It is mentioned here because it contains the common attributes of the
+ fundamental ctypes data types. :class:`_SimpleCData` is a subclass of
+ :class:`_CData`, so it inherits their methods and attributes.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ ctypes data types that are not and do not contain pointers can now be
+ pickled.
+
+ Instances have a single attribute:
+
+ .. attribute:: value
+
+ This attribute contains the actual value of the instance. For integer and
+ pointer types, it is an integer, for character types, it is a single
+ character string, for character pointer types it is a Python string or
+ unicode string.
+
+ When the ``value`` attribute is retrieved from a ctypes instance, usually
+ a new object is returned each time. :mod:`ctypes` does *not* implement
+ original object return, always a new object is constructed. The same is
+ true for all other ctypes object instances.
+
+
+Fundamental data types, when returned as foreign function call results, or, for
+example, by retrieving structure field members or array items, are transparently
+converted to native Python types. In other words, if a foreign function has a
+:attr:`restype` of :class:`c_char_p`, you will always receive a Python string,
+*not* a :class:`c_char_p` instance.
+
+Subclasses of fundamental data types do *not* inherit this behavior. So, if a
+foreign functions :attr:`restype` is a subclass of :class:`c_void_p`, you will
+receive an instance of this subclass from the function call. Of course, you can
+get the value of the pointer by accessing the ``value`` attribute.
+
+These are the fundamental ctypes data types:
+
+.. class:: c_byte
+
+ Represents the C :c:type:`signed char` datatype, and interprets the value as
+ small integer. The constructor accepts an optional integer initializer; no
+ overflow checking is done.
+
+
+.. class:: c_char
+
+ Represents the C :c:type:`char` datatype, and interprets the value as a single
+ character. The constructor accepts an optional string initializer, the
+ length of the string must be exactly one character.
+
+
+.. class:: c_char_p
+
+ Represents the C :c:type:`char *` datatype when it points to a zero-terminated
+ string. For a general character pointer that may also point to binary data,
+ ``POINTER(c_char)`` must be used. The constructor accepts an integer
+ address, or a string.
+
+
+.. class:: c_double
+
+ Represents the C :c:type:`double` datatype. The constructor accepts an
+ optional float initializer.
+
+
+.. class:: c_longdouble
+
+ Represents the C :c:type:`long double` datatype. The constructor accepts an
+ optional float initializer. On platforms where ``sizeof(long double) ==
+ sizeof(double)`` it is an alias to :class:`c_double`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+.. class:: c_float
+
+ Represents the C :c:type:`float` datatype. The constructor accepts an
+ optional float initializer.
+
+
+.. class:: c_int
+

+useful structures like :c:type:`MSG` or :c:type:`RECT` are also defined.
+
+
+.. _ctypes-structured-data-types:
+
+Structured data types
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+
+.. class:: Union(*args, **kw)
+
+ Abstract base class for unions in native byte order.
+
+
+.. class:: BigEndianStructure(*args, **kw)
+
+ Abstract base class for structures in *big endian* byte order.
+
+
+.. class:: LittleEndianStructure(*args, **kw)
+
+ Abstract base class for structures in *little endian* byte order.
+
+Structures with non-native byte order cannot contain pointer type fields, or any
+other data types containing pointer type fields.
+
+
+.. class:: Structure(*args, **kw)
+
+ Abstract base class for structures in *native* byte order.
+
+ Concrete structure and union types must be created by subclassing one of these
+ types, and at least define a :attr:`_fields_` class variable. :mod:`ctypes` will
+ create :term:`descriptor`\s which allow reading and writing the fields by direct
+ attribute accesses. These are the
+
+
+ .. attribute:: _fields_
+
+ A sequence defining the structure fields. The items must be 2-tuples or
+ 3-tuples. The first item is the name of the field, the second item
+ specifies the type of the field; it can be any ctypes data type.
+
+ For integer type fields like :class:`c_int`, a third optional item can be
+ given. It must be a small positive integer defining the bit width of the
+ field.
+
+ Field names must be unique within one structure or union. This is not
+ checked, only one field can be accessed when names are repeated.
+
+ It is possible to define the :attr:`_fields_` class variable *after* the
+ class statement that defines the Structure subclass, this allows to create
+ data types that directly or indirectly reference themselves::
+
+ class List(Structure):
+ pass
+ List._fields_ = [("pnext", POINTER(List)),
+ ...
+ ]
+
+ The :attr:`_fields_` class variable must, however, be defined before the
+ type is first used (an instance is created, ``sizeof()`` is called on it,
+ and so on). Later assignments to the :attr:`_fields_` class variable will
+ raise an AttributeError.
+
+ Structure and union subclass constructors accept both positional and named
+ arguments. Positional arguments are used to initialize the fields in the
+ same order as they appear in the :attr:`_fields_` definition, named
+ arguments are used to initialize the fields with the corresponding name.
+
+ It is possible to defined sub-subclasses of structure types, they inherit
+ the fields of the base class plus the :attr:`_fields_` defined in the
+ sub-subclass, if any.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: _pack_
+
+ An optional small integer that allows to override the alignment of
+ structure fields in the instance. :attr:`_pack_` must already be defined
+ when :attr:`_fields_` is assigned, otherwise it will have no effect.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: _anonymous_
+
+ An optional sequence that lists the names of unnamed (anonymous) fields.
+ :attr:`_anonymous_` must be already defined when :attr:`_fields_` is
+ assigned, otherwise it will have no effect.
+
+ The fields listed in this variable must be structure or union type fields.
+ :mod:`ctypes` will create descriptors in the structure type that allows to
+ access the nested fields directly, without the need to create the
+ structure or union field.
+
+ Here is an example type (Windows)::
+
+ class _U(Union):
+ _fields_ = [("lptdesc", POINTER(TYPEDESC)),
+ ("lpadesc", POINTER(ARRAYDESC)),
+ ("hreftype", HREFTYPE)]
+
+ class TYPEDESC(Structure):
+ _anonymous_ = ("u",)
+ _fields_ = [("u", _U),
+ ("vt", VARTYPE)]
+
+
+ The ``TYPEDESC`` structure describes a COM data type, the ``vt`` field
+ specifies which one of the union fields is valid. Since the ``u`` field
+ is defined as anonymous field, it is now possible to access the members
+ directly off the TYPEDESC instance. ``td.lptdesc`` and ``td.u.lptdesc``
+ are equivalent, but the former is faster since it does not need to create
+ a temporary union instance::
+
+ td = TYPEDESC()
+ td.vt = VT_PTR
+ td.lptdesc = POINTER(some_type)
+ td.u.lptdesc = POINTER(some_type)
+
+ It is possible to defined sub-subclasses of structures, they inherit the
+ fields of the base class. If the subclass definition has a separate
+ :attr:`_fields_` variable, the fields specified in this are appended to the
+ fields of the base class.
+
+ Structure and union constructors accept both positional and keyword
+ arguments. Positional arguments are used to initialize member fields in the
+ same order as they are appear in :attr:`_fields_`. Keyword arguments in the
+ constructor are interpreted as attribute assignments, so they will initialize
+ :attr:`_fields_` with the same name, or create new attributes for names not
+ present in :attr:`_fields_`.
+

+
+The :mod:`curses.ascii` module supplies name constants for ASCII characters and
+functions to test membership in various ASCII character classes. The constants
+supplied are names for control characters as follows:
+
++--------------+----------------------------------------------+
+| Name | Meaning |

+Note that many of these have little practical significance in modern usage. The

+
+The module supplies the following functions, patterned on those in the standard
+C library:
+
+
+.. function:: isalnum(c)
+
+ Checks for an ASCII alphanumeric character; it is equivalent to ``isalpha(c) or
+ isdigit(c)``.
+
+
+.. function:: isalpha(c)
+
+ Checks for an ASCII alphabetic character; it is equivalent to ``isupper(c) or
+ islower(c)``.
+
+
+.. function:: isascii(c)
+
+ Checks for a character value that fits in the 7-bit ASCII set.
+
+
+.. function:: isblank(c)
+
+ Checks for an ASCII whitespace character.
+
+
+.. function:: iscntrl(c)
+
+ Checks for an ASCII control character (in the range 0x00 to 0x1f).
+
+
+.. function:: isdigit(c)
+
+ Checks for an ASCII decimal digit, ``'0'`` through ``'9'``. This is equivalent
+ to ``c in string.digits``.
+
+
+.. function:: isgraph(c)
+
+ Checks for ASCII any printable character except space.
+
+
+.. function:: islower(c)
+
+ Checks for an ASCII lower-case character.
+
+
+.. function:: isprint(c)
+
+ Checks for any ASCII printable character including space.
+
+
+.. function:: ispunct(c)
+
+ Checks for any printable ASCII character which is not a space or an alphanumeric
+ character.
+
+
+.. function:: isspace(c)
+
+ Checks for ASCII white-space characters; space, line feed, carriage return, form
+ feed, horizontal tab, vertical tab.
+
+
+.. function:: isupper(c)
+
+ Checks for an ASCII uppercase letter.
+
+
+.. function:: isxdigit(c)
+
+ Checks for an ASCII hexadecimal digit. This is equivalent to ``c in
+ string.hexdigits``.
+
+
+.. function:: isctrl(c)
+
+ Checks for an ASCII control character (ordinal values 0 to 31).
+
+
+.. function:: ismeta(c)
+
+ Checks for a non-ASCII character (ordinal values 0x80 and above).
+
+These functions accept either integers or strings; when the argument is a
+string, it is first converted using the built-in function :func:`ord`.
+
+Note that all these functions check ordinal bit values derived from the first
+character of the string you pass in; they do not actually know anything about
+the host machine's character encoding. For functions that know about the
+character encoding (and handle internationalization properly) see the
+:mod:`string` module.
+
+The following two functions take either a single-character string or integer
+byte value; they return a value of the same type.
+
+
+.. function:: ascii(c)
+
+ Return the ASCII value corresponding to the low 7 bits of *c*.
+
+
+.. function:: ctrl(c)
+
+ Return the control character corresponding to the given character (the character
+ bit value is bitwise-anded with 0x1f).
+
+
+.. function:: alt(c)
+
+ Return the 8-bit character corresponding to the given ASCII character (the
+ character bit value is bitwise-ored with 0x80).
+
+The following function takes either a single-character string or integer value;
+it returns a string.
+
+
+.. function:: unctrl(c)
+
+ Return a string representation of the ASCII character *c*. If *c* is printable,
+ this string is the character itself. If the character is a control character
+ (0x00-0x1f) the string consists of a caret (``'^'``) followed by the
+ corresponding uppercase letter. If the character is an ASCII delete (0x7f) the
+ string is ``'^?'``. If the character has its meta bit (0x80) set, the meta bit
+ is stripped, the preceding rules applied, and ``'!'`` prepended to the result.
+
+
+.. data:: controlnames
+
+ A 33-element string array that contains the ASCII mnemonics for the thirty-two
+ ASCII control characters from 0 (NUL) to 0x1f (US), in order, plus the mnemonic
+ ``SP`` for the space character.

+==========================================================
+
+.. module:: curses.panel
+ :synopsis: A panel stack extension that adds depth to curses windows.
+.. sectionauthor:: A.M. Kuchling <[email protected]>
+
+
+Panels are windows with the added feature of depth, so they can be stacked on

+displayed. Panels can be added, moved up or down in the stack, and removed.
+
+

+
+The module :mod:`curses.panel` defines the following functions:
+
+
+.. function:: bottom_panel()
+
+ Returns the bottom panel in the panel stack.
+
+
+.. function:: new_panel(win)
+
+ Returns a panel object, associating it with the given window *win*. Be aware
+ that you need to keep the returned panel object referenced explicitly. If you
+ don't, the panel object is garbage collected and removed from the panel stack.
+
+
+.. function:: top_panel()
+
+ Returns the top panel in the panel stack.
+
+
+.. function:: update_panels()
+
+ Updates the virtual screen after changes in the panel stack. This does not call

+
+
+.. _curses-panel-objects:
+
+Panel Objects
+-------------
+
+Panel objects, as returned by :func:`new_panel` above, are windows with a
+stacking order. There's always a window associated with a panel which determines
+the content, while the panel methods are responsible for the window's depth in
+the panel stack.
+
+Panel objects have the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: Panel.above()
+
+ Returns the panel above the current panel.
+
+
+.. method:: Panel.below()
+
+ Returns the panel below the current panel.
+
+
+.. method:: Panel.bottom()
+
+ Push the panel to the bottom of the stack.
+
+
+.. method:: Panel.hidden()
+
+ Returns true if the panel is hidden (not visible), false otherwise.
+
+
+.. method:: Panel.hide()
+
+ Hide the panel. This does not delete the object, it just makes the window on
+ screen invisible.
+
+
+.. method:: Panel.move(y, x)
+
+ Move the panel to the screen coordinates ``(y, x)``.
+
+
+.. method:: Panel.replace(win)
+
+ Change the window associated with the panel to the window *win*.
+
+
+.. method:: Panel.set_userptr(obj)
+
+ Set the panel's user pointer to *obj*. This is used to associate an arbitrary
+ piece of data with the panel, and can be any Python object.
+
+
+.. method:: Panel.show()
+
+ Display the panel (which might have been hidden).
+
+
+.. method:: Panel.top()
+
+ Push panel to the top of the stack.
+
+
+.. method:: Panel.userptr()
+
+ Returns the user pointer for the panel. This might be any Python object.
+
+
+.. method:: Panel.window()
+
+ Returns the window object associated with the panel.

+:mod:`curses` --- Terminal handling for character-cell displays
+===============================================================
+
+.. module:: curses
+ :synopsis: An interface to the curses library, providing portable terminal
+ handling.
+ :platform: Unix
+.. sectionauthor:: Moshe Zadka <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Eric Raymond <[email protected]>
+
+.. versionchanged:: 1.6
+ Added support for the ``ncurses`` library and converted to a package.
+
+The :mod:`curses` module provides an interface to the curses library, the
+de-facto standard for portable advanced terminal handling.
+
+While curses is most widely used in the Unix environment, versions are available
+for DOS, OS/2, and possibly other systems as well. This extension module is
+designed to match the API of ncurses, an open-source curses library hosted on
+Linux and the BSD variants of Unix.
+
+.. note::
+
+ Since version 5.4, the ncurses library decides how to interpret non-ASCII data
+ using the ``nl_langinfo`` function. That means that you have to call
+ :func:`locale.setlocale` in the application and encode Unicode strings
+ using one of the system's available encodings. This example uses the
+ system's default encoding::
+
+ import locale
+ locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, '')
+ code = locale.getpreferredencoding()
+
+ Then use *code* as the encoding for :meth:`str.encode` calls.
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ Module :mod:`curses.ascii`
+ Utilities for working with ASCII characters, regardless of your locale settings.
+
+ Module :mod:`curses.panel`
+ A panel stack extension that adds depth to curses windows.
+
+ Module :mod:`curses.textpad`
+ Editable text widget for curses supporting :program:`Emacs`\ -like bindings.
+
+ :ref:`curses-howto`
+ Tutorial material on using curses with Python, by Andrew Kuchling and Eric
+ Raymond.
+
+ The :source:`Demo/curses/` directory in the Python source distribution contains
+ some example programs using the curses bindings provided by this module.
+
+
+.. _curses-functions:
+
+Functions
+---------
+
+The module :mod:`curses` defines the following exception:
+
+
+.. exception:: error
+
+ Exception raised when a curses library function returns an error.
+
+.. note::
+
+ Whenever *x* or *y* arguments to a function or a method are optional, they
+ default to the current cursor location. Whenever *attr* is optional, it defaults
+ to :const:`A_NORMAL`.
+
+The module :mod:`curses` defines the following functions:
+
+
+.. function:: baudrate()
+
+ Return the output speed of the terminal in bits per second. On software
+ terminal emulators it will have a fixed high value. Included for historical
+ reasons; in former times, it was used to write output loops for time delays and
+ occasionally to change interfaces depending on the line speed.
+
+
+.. function:: beep()
+
+ Emit a short attention sound.
+
+
+.. function:: can_change_color()
+
+ Return ``True`` or ``False``, depending on whether the programmer can change the colors
+ displayed by the terminal.
+
+
+.. function:: cbreak()
+
+ Enter cbreak mode. In cbreak mode (sometimes called "rare" mode) normal tty
+ line buffering is turned off and characters are available to be read one by one.
+ However, unlike raw mode, special characters (interrupt, quit, suspend, and flow
+ control) retain their effects on the tty driver and calling program. Calling
+ first :func:`raw` then :func:`cbreak` leaves the terminal in cbreak mode.
+
+
+.. function:: color_content(color_number)
+
+ Return the intensity of the red, green, and blue (RGB) components in the color
+ *color_number*, which must be between ``0`` and :const:`COLORS`. A 3-tuple is
+ returned, containing the R,G,B values for the given color, which will be between
+ ``0`` (no component) and ``1000`` (maximum amount of component).
+
+
+.. function:: color_pair(color_number)
+
+ Return the attribute value for displaying text in the specified color. This
+ attribute value can be combined with :const:`A_STANDOUT`, :const:`A_REVERSE`,
+ and the other :const:`A_\*` attributes. :func:`pair_number` is the counterpart
+ to this function.
+
+
+.. function:: curs_set(visibility)
+
+ Set the cursor state. *visibility* can be set to 0, 1, or 2, for invisible,
+ normal, or very visible. If the terminal supports the visibility requested, the
+ previous cursor state is returned; otherwise, an exception is raised. On many
+ terminals, the "visible" mode is an underline cursor and the "very visible" mode
+ is a block cursor.
+
+
+.. function:: def_prog_mode()
+
+ Save the current terminal mode as the "program" mode, the mode when the running
+ program is using curses. (Its counterpart is the "shell" mode, for when the
+ program is not in curses.) Subsequent calls to :func:`reset_prog_mode` will
+ restore this mode.
+
+
+.. function:: def_shell_mode()
+
+ Save the current terminal mode as the "shell" mode, the mode when the running
+ program is not using curses. (Its counterpart is the "program" mode, when the
+ program is using curses capabilities.) Subsequent calls to
+ :func:`reset_shell_mode` will restore this mode.
+
+
+.. function:: delay_output(ms)
+
+ Insert an *ms* millisecond pause in output.
+
+
+.. function:: doupdate()
+
+ Update the physical screen. The curses library keeps two data structures, one
+ representing the current physical screen contents and a virtual screen
+ representing the desired next state. The :func:`doupdate` ground updates the
+ physical screen to match the virtual screen.
+
+ The virtual screen may be updated by a :meth:`noutrefresh` call after write
+ operations such as :meth:`addstr` have been performed on a window. The normal
+ :meth:`refresh` call is simply :meth:`noutrefresh` followed by :func:`doupdate`;
+ if you have to update multiple windows, you can speed performance and perhaps
+ reduce screen flicker by issuing :meth:`noutrefresh` calls on all windows,
+ followed by a single :func:`doupdate`.
+
+
+.. function:: echo()
+
+ Enter echo mode. In echo mode, each character input is echoed to the screen as
+ it is entered.
+
+
+.. function:: endwin()
+
+ De-initialize the library, and return terminal to normal status.
+
+
+.. function:: erasechar()
+
+ Return the user's current erase character. Under Unix operating systems this
+ is a property of the controlling tty of the curses program, and is not set by
+ the curses library itself.
+
+
+.. function:: filter()
+
+ The :func:`.filter` routine, if used, must be called before :func:`initscr` is
+ called. The effect is that, during those calls, :envvar:`LINES` is set to 1; the
+ capabilities clear, cup, cud, cud1, cuu1, cuu, vpa are disabled; and the home
+ string is set to the value of cr. The effect is that the cursor is confined to
+ the current line, and so are screen updates. This may be used for enabling
+ character-at-a-time line editing without touching the rest of the screen.
+
+
+.. function:: flash()
+
+ Flash the screen. That is, change it to reverse-video and then change it back
+ in a short interval. Some people prefer such as 'visible bell' to the audible
+ attention signal produced by :func:`beep`.
+
+
+.. function:: flushinp()
+
+ Flush all input buffers. This throws away any typeahead that has been typed
+ by the user and has not yet been processed by the program.
+
+
+.. function:: getmouse()
+
+ After :meth:`getch` returns :const:`KEY_MOUSE` to signal a mouse event, this
+ method should be call to retrieve the queued mouse event, represented as a
+ 5-tuple ``(id, x, y, z, bstate)``. *id* is an ID value used to distinguish
+ multiple devices, and *x*, *y*, *z* are the event's coordinates. (*z* is
+ currently unused.) *bstate* is an integer value whose bits will be set to
+ indicate the type of event, and will be the bitwise OR of one or more of the
+ following constants, where *n* is the button number from 1 to 4:
+ :const:`BUTTONn_PRESSED`, :const:`BUTTONn_RELEASED`, :const:`BUTTONn_CLICKED`,
+ :const:`BUTTONn_DOUBLE_CLICKED`, :const:`BUTTONn_TRIPLE_CLICKED`,
+ :const:`BUTTON_SHIFT`, :const:`BUTTON_CTRL`, :const:`BUTTON_ALT`.
+
+
+.. function:: getsyx()
+
+ Return the current coordinates of the virtual screen cursor in y and x. If
+ leaveok is currently true, then -1,-1 is returned.
+
+
+.. function:: getwin(file)
+
+ Read window related data stored in the file by an earlier :func:`putwin` call.
+ The routine then creates and initializes a new window using that data, returning
+ the new window object.
+
+
+.. function:: has_colors()
+
+ Return ``True`` if the terminal can display colors; otherwise, return ``False``.
+
+
+.. function:: has_ic()
+
+ Return ``True`` if the terminal has insert- and delete-character capabilities.
+ This function is included for historical reasons only, as all modern software
+ terminal emulators have such capabilities.
+
+
+.. function:: has_il()
+
+ Return ``True`` if the terminal has insert- and delete-line capabilities, or can
+ simulate them using scrolling regions. This function is included for
+ historical reasons only, as all modern software terminal emulators have such
+ capabilities.
+
+
+.. function:: has_key(ch)
+
+ Take a key value *ch*, and return ``True`` if the current terminal type recognizes
+ a key with that value.
+
+
+.. function:: halfdelay(tenths)
+
+ Used for half-delay mode, which is similar to cbreak mode in that characters
+ typed by the user are immediately available to the program. However, after
+ blocking for *tenths* tenths of seconds, an exception is raised if nothing has
+ been typed. The value of *tenths* must be a number between ``1`` and ``255``. Use
+ :func:`nocbreak` to leave half-delay mode.
+
+
+.. function:: init_color(color_number, r, g, b)
+
+ Change the definition of a color, taking the number of the color to be changed
+ followed by three RGB values (for the amounts of red, green, and blue
+ components). The value of *color_number* must be between ``0`` and
+ :const:`COLORS`. Each of *r*, *g*, *b*, must be a value between ``0`` and
+ ``1000``. When :func:`init_color` is used, all occurrences of that color on the
+ screen immediately change to the new definition. This function is a no-op on
+ most terminals; it is active only if :func:`can_change_color` returns ``1``.
+
+
+.. function:: init_pair(pair_number, fg, bg)
+
+ Change the definition of a color-pair. It takes three arguments: the number of
+ the color-pair to be changed, the foreground color number, and the background
+ color number. The value of *pair_number* must be between ``1`` and
+ ``COLOR_PAIRS - 1`` (the ``0`` color pair is wired to white on black and cannot
+ be changed). The value of *fg* and *bg* arguments must be between ``0`` and
+ :const:`COLORS`. If the color-pair was previously initialized, the screen is
+ refreshed and all occurrences of that color-pair are changed to the new
+ definition.
+
+
+.. function:: initscr()
+
+ Initialize the library. Return a :class:`WindowObject` which represents the
+ whole screen.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ If there is an error opening the terminal, the underlying curses library may
+ cause the interpreter to exit.
+
+
+.. function:: is_term_resized(nlines, ncols)
+
+ Return ``True`` if :func:`resize_term` would modify the window structure,
+ ``False`` otherwise.
+
+
+.. function:: isendwin()
+
+ Return ``True`` if :func:`endwin` has been called (that is, the curses library has
+ been deinitialized).
+
+
+.. function:: keyname(k)
+
+ Return the name of the key numbered *k*. The name of a key generating printable
+ ASCII character is the key's character. The name of a control-key combination
+ is a two-character string consisting of a caret followed by the corresponding
+ printable ASCII character. The name of an alt-key combination (128-255) is a
+ string consisting of the prefix 'M-' followed by the name of the corresponding
+ ASCII character.
+
+
+.. function:: killchar()
+
+ Return the user's current line kill character. Under Unix operating systems
+ this is a property of the controlling tty of the curses program, and is not set
+ by the curses library itself.
+
+
+.. function:: longname()
+
+ Return a string containing the terminfo long name field describing the current
+ terminal. The maximum length of a verbose description is 128 characters. It is
+ defined only after the call to :func:`initscr`.
+
+
+.. function:: meta(yes)
+
+ If *yes* is 1, allow 8-bit characters to be input. If *yes* is 0, allow only
+ 7-bit chars.
+
+
+.. function:: mouseinterval(interval)
+
+ Set the maximum time in milliseconds that can elapse between press and release
+ events in order for them to be recognized as a click, and return the previous
+ interval value. The default value is 200 msec, or one fifth of a second.
+
+
+.. function:: mousemask(mousemask)
+
+ Set the mouse events to be reported, and return a tuple ``(availmask,
+ oldmask)``. *availmask* indicates which of the specified mouse events can be
+ reported; on complete failure it returns 0. *oldmask* is the previous value of
+ the given window's mouse event mask. If this function is never called, no mouse
+ events are ever reported.
+
+
+.. function:: napms(ms)
+
+ Sleep for *ms* milliseconds.
+
+
+.. function:: newpad(nlines, ncols)
+
+ Create and return a pointer to a new pad data structure with the given number
+ of lines and columns. A pad is returned as a window object.
+
+ A pad is like a window, except that it is not restricted by the screen size, and
+ is not necessarily associated with a particular part of the screen. Pads can be
+ used when a large window is needed, and only a part of the window will be on the
+ screen at one time. Automatic refreshes of pads (such as from scrolling or
+ echoing of input) do not occur. The :meth:`refresh` and :meth:`noutrefresh`
+ methods of a pad require 6 arguments to specify the part of the pad to be
+ displayed and the location on the screen to be used for the display. The
+ arguments are *pminrow*, *pmincol*, *sminrow*, *smincol*, *smaxrow*, *smaxcol*; the *p*
+ arguments refer to the upper left corner of the pad region to be displayed and
+ the *s* arguments define a clipping box on the screen within which the pad region
+ is to be displayed.
+
+
+.. function:: newwin(begin_y, begin_x)
+ newwin(nlines, ncols, begin_y, begin_x)
+
+ Return a new window, whose left-upper corner is at ``(begin_y, begin_x)``, and
+ whose height/width is *nlines*/*ncols*.
+
+ By default, the window will extend from the specified position to the lower
+ right corner of the screen.
+
+
+.. function:: nl()
+
+ Enter newline mode. This mode translates the return key into newline on input,
+ and translates newline into return and line-feed on output. Newline mode is
+ initially on.
+
+
+.. function:: nocbreak()
+
+ Leave cbreak mode. Return to normal "cooked" mode with line buffering.
+
+
+.. function:: noecho()
+
+ Leave echo mode. Echoing of input characters is turned off.
+
+
+.. function:: nonl()
+
+ Leave newline mode. Disable translation of return into newline on input, and
+ disable low-level translation of newline into newline/return on output (but this
+ does not change the behavior of ``addch('\n')``, which always does the
+ equivalent of return and line feed on the virtual screen). With translation
+ off, curses can sometimes speed up vertical motion a little; also, it will be
+ able to detect the return key on input.
+
+
+.. function:: noqiflush()
+
+ When the :func:`noqiflush` routine is used, normal flush of input and output queues
+ associated with the INTR, QUIT and SUSP characters will not be done. You may
+ want to call :func:`noqiflush` in a signal handler if you want output to
+ continue as though the interrupt had not occurred, after the handler exits.
+
+
+.. function:: noraw()
+
+ Leave raw mode. Return to normal "cooked" mode with line buffering.
+
+
+.. function:: pair_content(pair_number)
+
+ Return a tuple ``(fg, bg)`` containing the colors for the requested color pair.
+ The value of *pair_number* must be between ``1`` and ``COLOR_PAIRS - 1``.
+
+
+.. function:: pair_number(attr)
+
+ Return the number of the color-pair set by the attribute value *attr*.
+ :func:`color_pair` is the counterpart to this function.
+
+
+.. function:: putp(string)
+
+ Equivalent to ``tputs(str, 1, putchar)``; emit the value of a specified
+ terminfo capability for the current terminal. Note that the output of :func:`putp`
+ always goes to standard output.
+
+
+.. function:: qiflush( [flag] )
+
+ If *flag* is ``False``, the effect is the same as calling :func:`noqiflush`. If
+ *flag* is ``True``, or no argument is provided, the queues will be flushed when
+ these control characters are read.
+
+
+.. function:: raw()
+
+ Enter raw mode. In raw mode, normal line buffering and processing of
+ interrupt, quit, suspend, and flow control keys are turned off; characters are
+ presented to curses input functions one by one.
+
+
+.. function:: reset_prog_mode()
+
+ Restore the terminal to "program" mode, as previously saved by
+ :func:`def_prog_mode`.
+
+
+.. function:: reset_shell_mode()
+
+ Restore the terminal to "shell" mode, as previously saved by
+ :func:`def_shell_mode`.
+
+
+.. function:: resetty()
+
+ Restore the state of the terminal modes to what it was at the last call to
+ :func:`savetty`.
+
+
+.. function:: resize_term(nlines, ncols)
+
+ Backend function used by :func:`resizeterm`, performing most of the work;
+ when resizing the windows, :func:`resize_term` blank-fills the areas that are
+ extended. The calling application should fill in these areas with
+ appropriate data. The :func:`resize_term` function attempts to resize all
+ windows. However, due to the calling convention of pads, it is not possible
+ to resize these without additional interaction with the application.
+
+
+.. function:: resizeterm(nlines, ncols)
+
+ Resize the standard and current windows to the specified dimensions, and
+ adjusts other bookkeeping data used by the curses library that record the
+ window dimensions (in particular the SIGWINCH handler).
+
+
+.. function:: savetty()
+
+ Save the current state of the terminal modes in a buffer, usable by
+ :func:`resetty`.
+
+
+.. function:: setsyx(y, x)
+
+ Set the virtual screen cursor to *y*, *x*. If *y* and *x* are both -1, then
+ leaveok is set.
+
+
+.. function:: setupterm([termstr, fd])
+
+ Initialize the terminal. *termstr* is a string giving the terminal name; if
+ omitted, the value of the :envvar:`TERM` environment variable will be used. *fd* is the
+ file descriptor to which any initialization sequences will be sent; if not
+ supplied, the file descriptor for ``sys.stdout`` will be used.
+
+
+.. function:: start_color()
+
+ Must be called if the programmer wants to use colors, and before any other color
+ manipulation routine is called. It is good practice to call this routine right
+ after :func:`initscr`.
+
+ :func:`start_color` initializes eight basic colors (black, red, green, yellow,
+ blue, magenta, cyan, and white), and two global variables in the :mod:`curses`
+ module, :const:`COLORS` and :const:`COLOR_PAIRS`, containing the maximum number
+ of colors and color-pairs the terminal can support. It also restores the colors
+ on the terminal to the values they had when the terminal was just turned on.
+
+
+.. function:: termattrs()
+
+ Return a logical OR of all video attributes supported by the terminal. This
+ information is useful when a curses program needs complete control over the
+ appearance of the screen.
+
+
+.. function:: termname()
+
+ Return the value of the environment variable :envvar:`TERM`, truncated to 14 characters.
+
+
+.. function:: tigetflag(capname)
+
+ Return the value of the Boolean capability corresponding to the terminfo
+ capability name *capname*. The value ``-1`` is returned if *capname* is not a
+ Boolean capability, or ``0`` if it is canceled or absent from the terminal
+ description.
+
+
+.. function:: tigetnum(capname)
+
+ Return the value of the numeric capability corresponding to the terminfo
+ capability name *capname*. The value ``-2`` is returned if *capname* is not a
+ numeric capability, or ``-1`` if it is canceled or absent from the terminal
+ description.
+
+
+.. function:: tigetstr(capname)
+
+ Return the value of the string capability corresponding to the terminfo
+ capability name *capname*. ``None`` is returned if *capname* is not a string
+ capability, or is canceled or absent from the terminal description.
+
+
+.. function:: tparm(str[,...])
+
+ Instantiate the string *str* with the supplied parameters, where *str* should
+ be a parameterized string obtained from the terminfo database. E.g.
+ ``tparm(tigetstr("cup"), 5, 3)`` could result in ``'\033[6;4H'``, the exact
+ result depending on terminal type.
+
+
+.. function:: typeahead(fd)
+
+ Specify that the file descriptor *fd* be used for typeahead checking. If *fd*
+ is ``-1``, then no typeahead checking is done.
+
+ The curses library does "line-breakout optimization" by looking for typeahead
+ periodically while updating the screen. If input is found, and it is coming
+ from a tty, the current update is postponed until refresh or doupdate is called
+ again, allowing faster response to commands typed in advance. This function
+ allows specifying a different file descriptor for typeahead checking.
+
+
+.. function:: unctrl(ch)
+
+ Return a string which is a printable representation of the character *ch*.
+ Control characters are displayed as a caret followed by the character, for
+ example as ``^C``. Printing characters are left as they are.
+
+
+.. function:: ungetch(ch)
+
+ Push *ch* so the next :meth:`getch` will return it.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Only one *ch* can be pushed before :meth:`getch` is called.
+
+
+.. function:: ungetmouse(id, x, y, z, bstate)
+
+ Push a :const:`KEY_MOUSE` event onto the input queue, associating the given
+ state data with it.
+
+
+.. function:: use_env(flag)
+
+ If used, this function should be called before :func:`initscr` or newterm are
+ called. When *flag* is ``False``, the values of lines and columns specified in the
+ terminfo database will be used, even if environment variables :envvar:`LINES`
+ and :envvar:`COLUMNS` (used by default) are set, or if curses is running in a
+ window (in which case default behavior would be to use the window size if
+ :envvar:`LINES` and :envvar:`COLUMNS` are not set).
+
+
+.. function:: use_default_colors()
+
+ Allow use of default values for colors on terminals supporting this feature. Use
+ this to support transparency in your application. The default color is assigned
+ to the color number -1. After calling this function, ``init_pair(x,
+ curses.COLOR_RED, -1)`` initializes, for instance, color pair *x* to a red
+ foreground color on the default background.
+
+
+.. function:: wrapper(func, ...)
+
+ Initialize curses and call another callable object, *func*, which should be the
+ rest of your curses-using application. If the application raises an exception,
+ this function will restore the terminal to a sane state before re-raising the
+ exception and generating a traceback. The callable object *func* is then passed
+ the main window 'stdscr' as its first argument, followed by any other arguments
+ passed to :func:`wrapper`. Before calling *func*, :func:`wrapper` turns on
+ cbreak mode, turns off echo, enables the terminal keypad, and initializes colors
+ if the terminal has color support. On exit (whether normally or by exception)
+ it restores cooked mode, turns on echo, and disables the terminal keypad.
+
+
+.. _curses-window-objects:
+
+Window Objects
+--------------
+
+Window objects, as returned by :func:`initscr` and :func:`newwin` above, have
+the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: window.addch(ch[, attr])
+ window.addch(y, x, ch[, attr])
+
+ .. note::
+
+ A *character* means a C character (an ASCII code), rather than a Python
+ character (a string of length 1). (This note is true whenever the
+ documentation mentions a character.) The built-in :func:`ord` is handy for
+ conveying strings to codes.
+
+ Paint character *ch* at ``(y, x)`` with attributes *attr*, overwriting any
+ character previously painter at that location. By default, the character
+ position and attributes are the current settings for the window object.
+
+
+.. method:: window.addnstr(str, n[, attr])
+ window.addnstr(y, x, str, n[, attr])
+
+ Paint at most *n* characters of the string *str* at ``(y, x)`` with attributes
+ *attr*, overwriting anything previously on the display.
+
+
+.. method:: window.addstr(str[, attr])
+ window.addstr(y, x, str[, attr])
+
+ Paint the string *str* at ``(y, x)`` with attributes *attr*, overwriting
+ anything previously on the display.
+
+
+.. method:: window.attroff(attr)
+
+ Remove attribute *attr* from the "background" set applied to all writes to the
+ current window.
+
+
+.. method:: window.attron(attr)
+
+ Add attribute *attr* from the "background" set applied to all writes to the
+ current window.
+
+
+.. method:: window.attrset(attr)
+
+ Set the "background" set of attributes to *attr*. This set is initially 0 (no
+ attributes).
+
+
+.. method:: window.bkgd(ch[, attr])
+
+ Set the background property of the window to the character *ch*, with
+ attributes *attr*. The change is then applied to every character position in
+ that window:
+
+ * The attribute of every character in the window is changed to the new
+ background attribute.
+
+ * Wherever the former background character appears, it is changed to the new
+ background character.
+
+
+.. method:: window.bkgdset(ch[, attr])
+
+ Set the window's background. A window's background consists of a character and
+ any combination of attributes. The attribute part of the background is combined
+ (OR'ed) with all non-blank characters that are written into the window. Both
+ the character and attribute parts of the background are combined with the blank
+ characters. The background becomes a property of the character and moves with
+ the character through any scrolling and insert/delete line/character operations.
+
+
+.. method:: window.border([ls[, rs[, ts[, bs[, tl[, tr[, bl[, br]]]]]]]])
+
+ Draw a border around the edges of the window. Each parameter specifies the
+ character to use for a specific part of the border; see the table below for more
+ details. The characters can be specified as integers or as one-character
+ strings.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ A ``0`` value for any parameter will cause the default character to be used for
+ that parameter. Keyword parameters can *not* be used. The defaults are listed
+ in this table:
+
+ +-----------+---------------------+-----------------------+
+ | Parameter | Description | Default value |
+ +===========+=====================+=======================+
+ | *ls* | Left side | :const:`ACS_VLINE` |
+ +-----------+---------------------+-----------------------+
+ | *rs* | Right side | :const:`ACS_VLINE` |
+ +-----------+---------------------+-----------------------+
+ | *ts* | Top | :const:`ACS_HLINE` |
+ +-----------+---------------------+-----------------------+
+ | *bs* | Bottom | :const:`ACS_HLINE` |
+ +-----------+---------------------+-----------------------+
+ | *tl* | Upper-left corner | :const:`ACS_ULCORNER` |
+ +-----------+---------------------+-----------------------+
+ | *tr* | Upper-right corner | :const:`ACS_URCORNER` |
+ +-----------+---------------------+-----------------------+
+ | *bl* | Bottom-left corner | :const:`ACS_LLCORNER` |
+ +-----------+---------------------+-----------------------+
+ | *br* | Bottom-right corner | :const:`ACS_LRCORNER` |
+ +-----------+---------------------+-----------------------+
+
+
+.. method:: window.box([vertch, horch])
+
+ Similar to :meth:`border`, but both *ls* and *rs* are *vertch* and both *ts* and
+ *bs* are *horch*. The default corner characters are always used by this function.
+
+
+.. method:: window.chgat(attr)
+ window.chgat(num, attr)
+ window.chgat(y, x, attr)
+ window.chgat(y, x, num, attr)
+
+ Set the attributes of *num* characters at the current cursor position, or at
+ position ``(y, x)`` if supplied. If no value of *num* is given or *num* = -1,
+ the attribute will be set on all the characters to the end of the line. This
+ function does not move the cursor. The changed line will be touched using the
+ :meth:`touchline` method so that the contents will be redisplayed by the next
+ window refresh.
+
+
+.. method:: window.clear()
+
+ Like :meth:`erase`, but also cause the whole window to be repainted upon next
+ call to :meth:`refresh`.
+
+
+.. method:: window.clearok(yes)
+
+ If *yes* is 1, the next call to :meth:`refresh` will clear the window
+ completely.
+
+
+.. method:: window.clrtobot()
+
+ Erase from cursor to the end of the window: all lines below the cursor are
+ deleted, and then the equivalent of :meth:`clrtoeol` is performed.
+
+
+.. method:: window.clrtoeol()
+
+ Erase from cursor to the end of the line.
+
+
+.. method:: window.cursyncup()
+
+ Update the current cursor position of all the ancestors of the window to
+ reflect the current cursor position of the window.
+
+
+.. method:: window.delch([y, x])
+
+ Delete any character at ``(y, x)``.
+
+
+.. method:: window.deleteln()
+
+ Delete the line under the cursor. All following lines are moved up by one line.
+
+
+.. method:: window.derwin(begin_y, begin_x)
+ window.derwin(nlines, ncols, begin_y, begin_x)
+
+ An abbreviation for "derive window", :meth:`derwin` is the same as calling
+ :meth:`subwin`, except that *begin_y* and *begin_x* are relative to the origin
+ of the window, rather than relative to the entire screen. Return a window
+ object for the derived window.
+
+
+.. method:: window.echochar(ch[, attr])
+
+ Add character *ch* with attribute *attr*, and immediately call :meth:`refresh`
+ on the window.
+
+
+.. method:: window.enclose(y, x)
+
+ Test whether the given pair of screen-relative character-cell coordinates are
+ enclosed by the given window, returning ``True`` or ``False``. It is useful for
+ determining what subset of the screen windows enclose the location of a mouse
+ event.
+
+
+.. method:: window.erase()
+
+ Clear the window.
+
+
+.. method:: window.getbegyx()
+
+ Return a tuple ``(y, x)`` of co-ordinates of upper-left corner.
+
+
+.. method:: window.getbkgd()
+
+ Return the given window's current background character/attribute pair.
+
+
+.. method:: window.getch([y, x])
+
+ Get a character. Note that the integer returned does *not* have to be in ASCII
+ range: function keys, keypad keys and so on return numbers higher than 256. In
+ no-delay mode, -1 is returned if there is no input, else :func:`getch` waits
+ until a key is pressed.
+
+
+.. method:: window.getkey([y, x])
+
+ Get a character, returning a string instead of an integer, as :meth:`getch`
+ does. Function keys, keypad keys and so on return a multibyte string containing
+ the key name. In no-delay mode, an exception is raised if there is no input.
+
+
+.. method:: window.getmaxyx()
+
+ Return a tuple ``(y, x)`` of the height and width of the window.
+
+
+.. method:: window.getparyx()
+
+ Return the beginning coordinates of this window relative to its parent window
+ into two integer variables y and x. Return ``-1, -1`` if this window has no
+ parent.
+
+
+.. method:: window.getstr([y, x])
+
+ Read a string from the user, with primitive line editing capacity.
+
+
+.. method:: window.getyx()
+
+ Return a tuple ``(y, x)`` of current cursor position relative to the window's
+ upper-left corner.
+
+
+.. method:: window.hline(ch, n)
+ window.hline(y, x, ch, n)
+
+ Display a horizontal line starting at ``(y, x)`` with length *n* consisting of
+ the character *ch*.
+
+
+.. method:: window.idcok(flag)
+
+ If *flag* is ``False``, curses no longer considers using the hardware insert/delete
+ character feature of the terminal; if *flag* is ``True``, use of character insertion
+ and deletion is enabled. When curses is first initialized, use of character
+ insert/delete is enabled by default.
+
+
+.. method:: window.idlok(yes)
+
+ If called with *yes* equal to 1, :mod:`curses` will try and use hardware line
+ editing facilities. Otherwise, line insertion/deletion are disabled.
+
+
+.. method:: window.immedok(flag)
+
+ If *flag* is ``True``, any change in the window image automatically causes the
+ window to be refreshed; you no longer have to call :meth:`refresh` yourself.
+ However, it may degrade performance considerably, due to repeated calls to
+ wrefresh. This option is disabled by default.
+
+
+.. method:: window.inch([y, x])
+
+ Return the character at the given position in the window. The bottom 8 bits are
+ the character proper, and upper bits are the attributes.
+
+
+.. method:: window.insch(ch[, attr])
+ window.insch(y, x, ch[, attr])
+
+ Paint character *ch* at ``(y, x)`` with attributes *attr*, moving the line from
+ position *x* right by one character.
+
+
+.. method:: window.insdelln(nlines)
+
+ Insert *nlines* lines into the specified window above the current line. The
+ *nlines* bottom lines are lost. For negative *nlines*, delete *nlines* lines
+ starting with the one under the cursor, and move the remaining lines up. The
+ bottom *nlines* lines are cleared. The current cursor position remains the
+ same.
+
+
+.. method:: window.insertln()
+
+ Insert a blank line under the cursor. All following lines are moved down by one
+ line.
+
+
+.. method:: window.insnstr(str, n[, attr])
+ window.insnstr(y, x, str, n[, attr])
+
+ Insert a character string (as many characters as will fit on the line) before
+ the character under the cursor, up to *n* characters. If *n* is zero or
+ negative, the entire string is inserted. All characters to the right of the
+ cursor are shifted right, with the rightmost characters on the line being lost.
+ The cursor position does not change (after moving to *y*, *x*, if specified).
+
+
+.. method:: window.insstr(str[, attr])
+ window.insstr(y, x, str[, attr])
+
+ Insert a character string (as many characters as will fit on the line) before
+ the character under the cursor. All characters to the right of the cursor are
+ shifted right, with the rightmost characters on the line being lost. The cursor
+ position does not change (after moving to *y*, *x*, if specified).
+
+
+.. method:: window.instr([n])
+ window.instr(y, x[, n])
+
+ Return a string of characters, extracted from the window starting at the
+ current cursor position, or at *y*, *x* if specified. Attributes are stripped
+ from the characters. If *n* is specified, :meth:`instr` returns a string
+ at most *n* characters long (exclusive of the trailing NUL).
+
+
+.. method:: window.is_linetouched(line)
+
+ Return ``True`` if the specified line was modified since the last call to
+ :meth:`refresh`; otherwise return ``False``. Raise a :exc:`curses.error`
+ exception if *line* is not valid for the given window.
+
+
+.. method:: window.is_wintouched()
+
+ Return ``True`` if the specified window was modified since the last call to
+ :meth:`refresh`; otherwise return ``False``.
+
+
+.. method:: window.keypad(yes)
+
+ If *yes* is 1, escape sequences generated by some keys (keypad, function keys)
+ will be interpreted by :mod:`curses`. If *yes* is 0, escape sequences will be
+ left as is in the input stream.
+
+
+.. method:: window.leaveok(yes)
+
+ If *yes* is 1, cursor is left where it is on update, instead of being at "cursor
+ position." This reduces cursor movement where possible. If possible the cursor
+ will be made invisible.
+
+ If *yes* is 0, cursor will always be at "cursor position" after an update.
+
+
+.. method:: window.move(new_y, new_x)
+
+ Move cursor to ``(new_y, new_x)``.
+
+
+.. method:: window.mvderwin(y, x)
+
+ Move the window inside its parent window. The screen-relative parameters of
+ the window are not changed. This routine is used to display different parts of
+ the parent window at the same physical position on the screen.
+
+
+.. method:: window.mvwin(new_y, new_x)
+
+ Move the window so its upper-left corner is at ``(new_y, new_x)``.
+
+
+.. method:: window.nodelay(yes)
+
+ If *yes* is ``1``, :meth:`getch` will be non-blocking.
+
+
+.. method:: window.notimeout(yes)
+
+ If *yes* is ``1``, escape sequences will not be timed out.
+
+ If *yes* is ``0``, after a few milliseconds, an escape sequence will not be
+ interpreted, and will be left in the input stream as is.
+
+
+.. method:: window.noutrefresh()
+
+ Mark for refresh but wait. This function updates the data structure
+ representing the desired state of the window, but does not force an update of
+ the physical screen. To accomplish that, call :func:`doupdate`.
+
+
+.. method:: window.overlay(destwin[, sminrow, smincol, dminrow, dmincol, dmaxrow, dmaxcol])
+
+ Overlay the window on top of *destwin*. The windows need not be the same size,
+ only the overlapping region is copied. This copy is non-destructive, which means
+ that the current background character does not overwrite the old contents of
+ *destwin*.
+
+ To get fine-grained control over the copied region, the second form of
+ :meth:`overlay` can be used. *sminrow* and *smincol* are the upper-left
+ coordinates of the source window, and the other variables mark a rectangle in
+ the destination window.
+
+
+.. method:: window.overwrite(destwin[, sminrow, smincol, dminrow, dmincol, dmaxrow, dmaxcol])
+
+ Overwrite the window on top of *destwin*. The windows need not be the same size,
+ in which case only the overlapping region is copied. This copy is destructive,
+ which means that the current background character overwrites the old contents of
+ *destwin*.
+
+ To get fine-grained control over the copied region, the second form of
+ :meth:`overwrite` can be used. *sminrow* and *smincol* are the upper-left
+ coordinates of the source window, the other variables mark a rectangle in the
+ destination window.
+
+
+.. method:: window.putwin(file)
+
+ Write all data associated with the window into the provided file object. This
+ information can be later retrieved using the :func:`getwin` function.
+
+
+.. method:: window.redrawln(beg, num)
+
+ Indicate that the *num* screen lines, starting at line *beg*, are corrupted and
+ should be completely redrawn on the next :meth:`refresh` call.
+
+
+.. method:: window.redrawwin()
+
+ Touch the entire window, causing it to be completely redrawn on the next
+ :meth:`refresh` call.
+
+
+.. method:: window.refresh([pminrow, pmincol, sminrow, smincol, smaxrow, smaxcol])
+
+ Update the display immediately (sync actual screen with previous
+ drawing/deleting methods).
+
+ The 6 optional arguments can only be specified when the window is a pad created
+ with :func:`newpad`. The additional parameters are needed to indicate what part
+ of the pad and screen are involved. *pminrow* and *pmincol* specify the upper
+ left-hand corner of the rectangle to be displayed in the pad. *sminrow*,
+ *smincol*, *smaxrow*, and *smaxcol* specify the edges of the rectangle to be
+ displayed on the screen. The lower right-hand corner of the rectangle to be
+ displayed in the pad is calculated from the screen coordinates, since the
+ rectangles must be the same size. Both rectangles must be entirely contained
+ within their respective structures. Negative values of *pminrow*, *pmincol*,
+ *sminrow*, or *smincol* are treated as if they were zero.
+
+
+.. method:: window.resize(nlines, ncols)
+
+ Reallocate storage for a curses window to adjust its dimensions to the
+ specified values. If either dimension is larger than the current values, the
+ window's data is filled with blanks that have the current background
+ rendition (as set by :meth:`bkgdset`) merged into them.
+
+
+.. method:: window.scroll([lines=1])
+
+ Scroll the screen or scrolling region upward by *lines* lines.
+
+
+.. method:: window.scrollok(flag)
+
+ Control what happens when the cursor of a window is moved off the edge of the
+ window or scrolling region, either as a result of a newline action on the bottom
+ line, or typing the last character of the last line. If *flag* is false, the
+ cursor is left on the bottom line. If *flag* is true, the window is scrolled up
+ one line. Note that in order to get the physical scrolling effect on the
+ terminal, it is also necessary to call :meth:`idlok`.
+
+
+.. method:: window.setscrreg(top, bottom)
+
+ Set the scrolling region from line *top* to line *bottom*. All scrolling actions
+ will take place in this region.
+
+
+.. method:: window.standend()
+
+ Turn off the standout attribute. On some terminals this has the side effect of
+ turning off all attributes.
+
+
+.. method:: window.standout()
+
+ Turn on attribute *A_STANDOUT*.
+
+
+.. method:: window.subpad(begin_y, begin_x)
+ window.subpad(nlines, ncols, begin_y, begin_x)
+
+ Return a sub-window, whose upper-left corner is at ``(begin_y, begin_x)``, and
+ whose width/height is *ncols*/*nlines*.
+
+
+.. method:: window.subwin(begin_y, begin_x)
+ window.subwin(nlines, ncols, begin_y, begin_x)
+
+ Return a sub-window, whose upper-left corner is at ``(begin_y, begin_x)``, and
+ whose width/height is *ncols*/*nlines*.
+
+ By default, the sub-window will extend from the specified position to the lower
+ right corner of the window.
+
+
+.. method:: window.syncdown()
+
+ Touch each location in the window that has been touched in any of its ancestor
+ windows. This routine is called by :meth:`refresh`, so it should almost never
+ be necessary to call it manually.
+
+
+.. method:: window.syncok(flag)
+
+ If called with *flag* set to ``True``, then :meth:`syncup` is called automatically
+ whenever there is a change in the window.
+
+
+.. method:: window.syncup()
+
+ Touch all locations in ancestors of the window that have been changed in the
+ window.
+
+
+.. method:: window.timeout(delay)
+
+ Set blocking or non-blocking read behavior for the window. If *delay* is
+ negative, blocking read is used (which will wait indefinitely for input). If
+ *delay* is zero, then non-blocking read is used, and -1 will be returned by
+ :meth:`getch` if no input is waiting. If *delay* is positive, then
+ :meth:`getch` will block for *delay* milliseconds, and return -1 if there is
+ still no input at the end of that time.
+
+
+.. method:: window.touchline(start, count[, changed])
+
+ Pretend *count* lines have been changed, starting with line *start*. If
+ *changed* is supplied, it specifies whether the affected lines are marked as
+ having been changed (*changed*\ =1) or unchanged (*changed*\ =0).
+
+
+.. method:: window.touchwin()
+
+ Pretend the whole window has been changed, for purposes of drawing
+ optimizations.
+
+
+.. method:: window.untouchwin()
+
+ Mark all lines in the window as unchanged since the last call to
+ :meth:`refresh`.
+
+
+.. method:: window.vline(ch, n)
+ window.vline(y, x, ch, n)
+
+ Display a vertical line starting at ``(y, x)`` with length *n* consisting of the
+ character *ch*.
+

+---------
+
+The :mod:`curses` module defines the following data members:

+
+On VT100s and their software emulations, such as X terminal emulators, there are
+normally at least four function keys (:const:`KEY_F1`, :const:`KEY_F2`,
+:const:`KEY_F3`, :const:`KEY_F4`) available, and the arrow keys mapped to
+:const:`KEY_UP`, :const:`KEY_DOWN`, :const:`KEY_LEFT` and :const:`KEY_RIGHT` in
+the obvious way. If your machine has a PC keyboard, it is safe to expect arrow
+keys and twelve function keys (older PC keyboards may have only ten function
+keys); also, the following keypad mappings are standard:
+
++------------------+-----------+
+| Keycap | Constant |
++==================+===========+
+| :kbd:`Insert` | KEY_IC |
++------------------+-----------+
+| :kbd:`Delete` | KEY_DC |
++------------------+-----------+
+| :kbd:`Home` | KEY_HOME |
++------------------+-----------+
+| :kbd:`End` | KEY_END |
++------------------+-----------+
+| :kbd:`Page Up` | KEY_NPAGE |
++------------------+-----------+
+| :kbd:`Page Down` | KEY_PPAGE |
++------------------+-----------+
+
+The following table lists characters from the alternate character set. These are
+inherited from the VT100 terminal, and will generally be available on software
+emulations such as X terminals. When there is no graphic available, curses
+falls back on a crude printable ASCII approximation.
+
+.. note::
+
+ These are available only after :func:`initscr` has been called.

+===============================================================
+
+.. module:: curses.textpad
+ :synopsis: Emacs-like input editing in a curses window.
+.. moduleauthor:: Eric Raymond <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Eric Raymond <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. versionadded:: 1.6
+
+The :mod:`curses.textpad` module provides a :class:`Textbox` class that handles
+elementary text editing in a curses window, supporting a set of keybindings
+resembling those of Emacs (thus, also of Netscape Navigator, BBedit 6.x,
+FrameMaker, and many other programs). The module also provides a
+rectangle-drawing function useful for framing text boxes or for other purposes.
+
+The module :mod:`curses.textpad` defines the following function:
+
+
+.. function:: rectangle(win, uly, ulx, lry, lrx)
+
+ Draw a rectangle. The first argument must be a window object; the remaining
+ arguments are coordinates relative to that window. The second and third
+ arguments are the y and x coordinates of the upper left hand corner of the
+ rectangle to be drawn; the fourth and fifth arguments are the y and x
+ coordinates of the lower right hand corner. The rectangle will be drawn using
+ VT100/IBM PC forms characters on terminals that make this possible (including
+ xterm and most other software terminal emulators). Otherwise it will be drawn
+ with ASCII dashes, vertical bars, and plus signs.
+
+
+.. _curses-textpad-objects:
+
+Textbox objects
+---------------
+
+You can instantiate a :class:`Textbox` object as follows:
+
+
+.. class:: Textbox(win)
+
+ Return a textbox widget object. The *win* argument should be a curses
+ :class:`WindowObject` in which the textbox is to be contained. The edit cursor
+ of the textbox is initially located at the upper left hand corner of the
+ containing window, with coordinates ``(0, 0)``. The instance's
+ :attr:`stripspaces` flag is initially on.
+
+ :class:`Textbox` objects have the following methods:
+
+
+ .. method:: edit([validator])
+
+ This is the entry point you will normally use. It accepts editing
+ keystrokes until one of the termination keystrokes is entered. If
+ *validator* is supplied, it must be a function. It will be called for
+ each keystroke entered with the keystroke as a parameter; command dispatch
+ is done on the result. This method returns the window contents as a
+ string; whether blanks in the window are included is affected by the
+ :attr:`stripspaces` attribute.
+
+
+ .. method:: do_command(ch)
+
+ Process a single command keystroke. Here are the supported special
+ keystrokes:
+
+ +------------------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | Keystroke | Action |
+ +==================+===========================================+
+ | :kbd:`Control-A` | Go to left edge of window. |
+ +------------------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | :kbd:`Control-B` | Cursor left, wrapping to previous line if |
+ | | appropriate. |
+ +------------------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | :kbd:`Control-D` | Delete character under cursor. |
+ +------------------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | :kbd:`Control-E` | Go to right edge (stripspaces off) or end |
+ | | of line (stripspaces on). |
+ +------------------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | :kbd:`Control-F` | Cursor right, wrapping to next line when |
+ | | appropriate. |
+ +------------------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | :kbd:`Control-G` | Terminate, returning the window contents. |
+ +------------------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | :kbd:`Control-H` | Delete character backward. |
+ +------------------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | :kbd:`Control-J` | Terminate if the window is 1 line, |
+ | | otherwise insert newline. |
+ +------------------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | :kbd:`Control-K` | If line is blank, delete it, otherwise |
+ | | clear to end of line. |
+ +------------------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | :kbd:`Control-L` | Refresh screen. |
+ +------------------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | :kbd:`Control-N` | Cursor down; move down one line. |
+ +------------------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | :kbd:`Control-O` | Insert a blank line at cursor location. |
+ +------------------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | :kbd:`Control-P` | Cursor up; move up one line. |
+ +------------------+-------------------------------------------+
+
+ Move operations do nothing if the cursor is at an edge where the movement
+ is not possible. The following synonyms are supported where possible:
+
+ +------------------------+------------------+
+ | Constant | Keystroke |
+ +========================+==================+
+ | :const:`KEY_LEFT` | :kbd:`Control-B` |
+ +------------------------+------------------+
+ | :const:`KEY_RIGHT` | :kbd:`Control-F` |
+ +------------------------+------------------+
+ | :const:`KEY_UP` | :kbd:`Control-P` |
+ +------------------------+------------------+
+ | :const:`KEY_DOWN` | :kbd:`Control-N` |
+ +------------------------+------------------+
+ | :const:`KEY_BACKSPACE` | :kbd:`Control-h` |
+ +------------------------+------------------+
+
+ All other keystrokes are treated as a command to insert the given
+ character and move right (with line wrapping).
+
+
+ .. method:: gather()
+
+ Return the window contents as a string; whether blanks in the
+ window are included is affected by the :attr:`stripspaces` member.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: stripspaces
+
+ This attribute is a flag which controls the interpretation of blanks in
+ the window. When it is on, trailing blanks on each line are ignored; any
+ cursor motion that would land the cursor on a trailing blank goes to the
+ end of that line instead, and trailing blanks are stripped when the window
+ contents are gathered.

+The modules described in this chapter provide a variety of specialized data
+types such as dates and times, fixed-type arrays, heap queues, synchronized
+queues, and sets.
+
+Python also provides some built-in data types, in particular,
+:class:`dict`, :class:`list`, :class:`set` (which along with
+:class:`frozenset`, replaces the deprecated :mod:`sets` module), and
+:class:`tuple`. The :class:`str` class can be used to handle binary data

+:mod:`datetime` --- Basic date and time types
+=============================================
+
+.. module:: datetime
+ :synopsis: Basic date and time types.
+.. moduleauthor:: Tim Peters <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Tim Peters <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: A.M. Kuchling <[email protected]>
+
+.. XXX what order should the types be discussed in?
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+The :mod:`datetime` module supplies classes for manipulating dates and times in
+both simple and complex ways. While date and time arithmetic is supported, the
+focus of the implementation is on efficient attribute extraction for output
+formatting and manipulation. For related functionality, see also the
+:mod:`time` and :mod:`calendar` modules.
+
+There are two kinds of date and time objects: "naive" and "aware".
+
+An aware object has sufficient knowledge of applicable algorithmic and
+political time adjustments, such as time zone and daylight saving time
+information, to locate itself relative to other aware objects. An aware object
+is used to represent a specific moment in time that is not open to
+interpretation [#]_.
+
+A naive object does not contain enough information to unambiguously locate
+itself relative to other date/time objects. Whether a naive object represents
+Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), local time, or time in some other timezone is
+purely up to the program, just like it's up to the program whether a particular
+number represents metres, miles, or mass. Naive objects are easy to understand
+and to work with, at the cost of ignoring some aspects of reality.
+
+For applications requiring aware objects, :class:`.datetime` and :class:`.time`
+objects have an optional time zone information attribute, :attr:`tzinfo`, that
+can be set to an instance of a subclass of the abstract :class:`tzinfo` class.
+These :class:`tzinfo` objects capture information about the offset from UTC
+time, the time zone name, and whether Daylight Saving Time is in effect. Note
+that no concrete :class:`tzinfo` classes are supplied by the :mod:`datetime`
+module. Supporting timezones at whatever level of detail is required is up to
+the application. The rules for time adjustment across the world are more
+political than rational, and there is no standard suitable for every
+application.
+
+The :mod:`datetime` module exports the following constants:
+
+.. data:: MINYEAR
+
+ The smallest year number allowed in a :class:`date` or :class:`.datetime` object.
+ :const:`MINYEAR` is ``1``.
+
+
+.. data:: MAXYEAR
+
+ The largest year number allowed in a :class:`date` or :class:`.datetime` object.
+ :const:`MAXYEAR` is ``9999``.
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ Module :mod:`calendar`
+ General calendar related functions.
+
+ Module :mod:`time`
+ Time access and conversions.
+
+
+Available Types
+---------------
+
+.. class:: date
+ :noindex:
+
+ An idealized naive date, assuming the current Gregorian calendar always was, and
+ always will be, in effect. Attributes: :attr:`year`, :attr:`month`, and
+ :attr:`day`.
+
+
+.. class:: time
+ :noindex:
+
+ An idealized time, independent of any particular day, assuming that every day
+ has exactly 24\*60\*60 seconds (there is no notion of "leap seconds" here).
+ Attributes: :attr:`hour`, :attr:`minute`, :attr:`second`, :attr:`microsecond`,
+ and :attr:`tzinfo`.
+
+
+.. class:: datetime
+ :noindex:
+
+ A combination of a date and a time. Attributes: :attr:`year`, :attr:`month`,
+ :attr:`day`, :attr:`hour`, :attr:`minute`, :attr:`second`, :attr:`microsecond`,
+ and :attr:`tzinfo`.
+
+
+.. class:: timedelta
+ :noindex:
+
+ A duration expressing the difference between two :class:`date`, :class:`.time`,
+ or :class:`.datetime` instances to microsecond resolution.
+
+
+.. class:: tzinfo
+
+ An abstract base class for time zone information objects. These are used by the
+ :class:`.datetime` and :class:`.time` classes to provide a customizable notion of
+ time adjustment (for example, to account for time zone and/or daylight saving
+ time).
+
+Objects of these types are immutable.
+
+Objects of the :class:`date` type are always naive.
+
+An object of type :class:`.time` or :class:`.datetime` may be naive or aware.
+A :class:`.datetime` object *d* is aware if ``d.tzinfo`` is not ``None`` and
+``d.tzinfo.utcoffset(d)`` does not return ``None``. If ``d.tzinfo`` is
+``None``, or if ``d.tzinfo`` is not ``None`` but ``d.tzinfo.utcoffset(d)``
+returns ``None``, *d* is naive. A :class:`.time` object *t* is aware
+if ``t.tzinfo`` is not ``None`` and ``t.tzinfo.utcoffset(None)`` does not return
+``None``. Otherwise, *t* is naive.
+
+The distinction between naive and aware doesn't apply to :class:`timedelta`
+objects.
+
+Subclass relationships::
+
+ object
+ timedelta
+ tzinfo
+ time
+ date
+ datetime
+
+
+.. _datetime-timedelta:
+
+:class:`timedelta` Objects
+--------------------------
+
+A :class:`timedelta` object represents a duration, the difference between two
+dates or times.
+
+.. class:: timedelta([days[, seconds[, microseconds[, milliseconds[, minutes[, hours[, weeks]]]]]]])
+
+ All arguments are optional and default to ``0``. Arguments may be ints, longs,
+ or floats, and may be positive or negative.
+
+ Only *days*, *seconds* and *microseconds* are stored internally. Arguments are
+ converted to those units:
+
+ * A millisecond is converted to 1000 microseconds.
+ * A minute is converted to 60 seconds.
+ * An hour is converted to 3600 seconds.
+ * A week is converted to 7 days.
+
+ and days, seconds and microseconds are then normalized so that the
+ representation is unique, with
+
+ * ``0 <= microseconds < 1000000``
+ * ``0 <= seconds < 3600*24`` (the number of seconds in one day)
+ * ``-999999999 <= days <= 999999999``
+
+ If any argument is a float and there are fractional microseconds, the fractional
+ microseconds left over from all arguments are combined and their sum is rounded
+ to the nearest microsecond. If no argument is a float, the conversion and
+ normalization processes are exact (no information is lost).
+
+ If the normalized value of days lies outside the indicated range,
+ :exc:`OverflowError` is raised.
+
+ Note that normalization of negative values may be surprising at first. For
+ example,
+
+ >>> from datetime import timedelta
+ >>> d = timedelta(microseconds=-1)
+ >>> (d.days, d.seconds, d.microseconds)
+ (-1, 86399, 999999)
+
+
+Class attributes are:
+
+.. attribute:: timedelta.min
+
+ The most negative :class:`timedelta` object, ``timedelta(-999999999)``.
+
+
+.. attribute:: timedelta.max
+
+ The most positive :class:`timedelta` object, ``timedelta(days=999999999,
+ hours=23, minutes=59, seconds=59, microseconds=999999)``.
+
+
+.. attribute:: timedelta.resolution
+
+ The smallest possible difference between non-equal :class:`timedelta` objects,
+ ``timedelta(microseconds=1)``.
+
+Note that, because of normalization, ``timedelta.max`` > ``-timedelta.min``.
+``-timedelta.max`` is not representable as a :class:`timedelta` object.
+
+Instance attributes (read-only):
+
++------------------+--------------------------------------------+
+| Attribute | Value |
++==================+============================================+
+| ``days`` | Between -999999999 and 999999999 inclusive |
++------------------+--------------------------------------------+
+| ``seconds`` | Between 0 and 86399 inclusive |
++------------------+--------------------------------------------+
+| ``microseconds`` | Between 0 and 999999 inclusive |
++------------------+--------------------------------------------+
+
+Supported operations:
+
+.. XXX this table is too wide!
+
++--------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| Operation | Result |
++================================+===============================================+
+| ``t1 = t2 + t3`` | Sum of *t2* and *t3*. Afterwards *t1*-*t2* == |
+| | *t3* and *t1*-*t3* == *t2* are true. (1) |
++--------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| ``t1 = t2 - t3`` | Difference of *t2* and *t3*. Afterwards *t1* |
+| | == *t2* - *t3* and *t2* == *t1* + *t3* are |
+| | true. (1) |
++--------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| ``t1 = t2 * i or t1 = i * t2`` | Delta multiplied by an integer or long. |
+| | Afterwards *t1* // i == *t2* is true, |
+| | provided ``i != 0``. |
++--------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| | In general, *t1* \* i == *t1* \* (i-1) + *t1* |
+| | is true. (1) |
++--------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| ``t1 = t2 // i`` | The floor is computed and the remainder (if |
+| | any) is thrown away. (3) |
++--------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| ``+t1`` | Returns a :class:`timedelta` object with the |
+| | same value. (2) |
++--------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| ``-t1`` | equivalent to :class:`timedelta`\ |
+| | (-*t1.days*, -*t1.seconds*, |
+| | -*t1.microseconds*), and to *t1*\* -1. (1)(4) |
++--------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| ``abs(t)`` | equivalent to +\ *t* when ``t.days >= 0``, and|
+| | to -*t* when ``t.days < 0``. (2) |
++--------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| ``str(t)`` | Returns a string in the form |
+| | ``[D day[s], ][H]H:MM:SS[.UUUUUU]``, where D |
+| | is negative for negative ``t``. (5) |
++--------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| ``repr(t)`` | Returns a string in the form |
+| | ``datetime.timedelta(D[, S[, U]])``, where D |
+| | is negative for negative ``t``. (5) |
++--------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
+
+Notes:
+
+(1)
+ This is exact, but may overflow.
+
+(2)
+ This is exact, and cannot overflow.
+
+(3)
+ Division by 0 raises :exc:`ZeroDivisionError`.
+
+(4)
+ -*timedelta.max* is not representable as a :class:`timedelta` object.
+
+(5)
+ String representations of :class:`timedelta` objects are normalized
+ similarly to their internal representation. This leads to somewhat
+ unusual results for negative timedeltas. For example:
+
+ >>> timedelta(hours=-5)
+ datetime.timedelta(-1, 68400)
+ >>> print(_)
+ -1 day, 19:00:00
+
+In addition to the operations listed above :class:`timedelta` objects support
+certain additions and subtractions with :class:`date` and :class:`.datetime`
+objects (see below).
+
+Comparisons of :class:`timedelta` objects are supported with the
+:class:`timedelta` object representing the smaller duration considered to be the
+smaller timedelta. In order to stop mixed-type comparisons from falling back to
+the default comparison by object address, when a :class:`timedelta` object is
+compared to an object of a different type, :exc:`TypeError` is raised unless the
+comparison is ``==`` or ``!=``. The latter cases return :const:`False` or
+:const:`True`, respectively.
+
+:class:`timedelta` objects are :term:`hashable` (usable as dictionary keys), support
+efficient pickling, and in Boolean contexts, a :class:`timedelta` object is
+considered to be true if and only if it isn't equal to ``timedelta(0)``.
+
+Instance methods:
+
+.. method:: timedelta.total_seconds()
+
+ Return the total number of seconds contained in the duration.
+ Equivalent to ``(td.microseconds + (td.seconds + td.days * 24 *
+ 3600) * 10**6) / 10**6`` computed with true division enabled.
+
+ Note that for very large time intervals (greater than 270 years on
+ most platforms) this method will lose microsecond accuracy.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+Example usage:
+
+ >>> from datetime import timedelta
+ >>> year = timedelta(days=365)
+ >>> another_year = timedelta(weeks=40, days=84, hours=23,
+ ... minutes=50, seconds=600) # adds up to 365 days
+ >>> year.total_seconds()
+ 31536000.0
+ >>> year == another_year
+ True
+ >>> ten_years = 10 * year
+ >>> ten_years, ten_years.days // 365
+ (datetime.timedelta(3650), 10)
+ >>> nine_years = ten_years - year
+ >>> nine_years, nine_years.days // 365
+ (datetime.timedelta(3285), 9)
+ >>> three_years = nine_years // 3;
+ >>> three_years, three_years.days // 365
+ (datetime.timedelta(1095), 3)
+ >>> abs(three_years - ten_years) == 2 * three_years + year
+ True
+
+
+.. _datetime-date:
+
+:class:`date` Objects
+---------------------
+
+A :class:`date` object represents a date (year, month and day) in an idealized
+calendar, the current Gregorian calendar indefinitely extended in both
+directions. January 1 of year 1 is called day number 1, January 2 of year 1 is
+called day number 2, and so on. This matches the definition of the "proleptic
+Gregorian" calendar in Dershowitz and Reingold's book Calendrical Calculations,
+where it's the base calendar for all computations. See the book for algorithms
+for converting between proleptic Gregorian ordinals and many other calendar
+systems.
+
+
+.. class:: date(year, month, day)
+
+ All arguments are required. Arguments may be ints or longs, in the following
+ ranges:
+
+ * ``MINYEAR <= year <= MAXYEAR``
+ * ``1 <= month <= 12``
+ * ``1 <= day <= number of days in the given month and year``
+
+ If an argument outside those ranges is given, :exc:`ValueError` is raised.
+
+
+Other constructors, all class methods:
+
+.. classmethod:: date.today()
+
+ Return the current local date. This is equivalent to
+ ``date.fromtimestamp(time.time())``.
+
+
+.. classmethod:: date.fromtimestamp(timestamp)
+
+ Return the local date corresponding to the POSIX timestamp, such as is returned
+ by :func:`time.time`. This may raise :exc:`ValueError`, if the timestamp is out
+ of the range of values supported by the platform C :c:func:`localtime` function.
+ It's common for this to be restricted to years from 1970 through 2038. Note
+ that on non-POSIX systems that include leap seconds in their notion of a
+ timestamp, leap seconds are ignored by :meth:`fromtimestamp`.
+
+
+.. classmethod:: date.fromordinal(ordinal)
+
+ Return the date corresponding to the proleptic Gregorian ordinal, where January
+ 1 of year 1 has ordinal 1. :exc:`ValueError` is raised unless ``1 <= ordinal <=
+ date.max.toordinal()``. For any date *d*, ``date.fromordinal(d.toordinal()) ==
+ d``.
+
+
+Class attributes:
+
+.. attribute:: date.min
+
+ The earliest representable date, ``date(MINYEAR, 1, 1)``.
+
+
+.. attribute:: date.max
+
+ The latest representable date, ``date(MAXYEAR, 12, 31)``.
+
+
+.. attribute:: date.resolution
+
+ The smallest possible difference between non-equal date objects,
+ ``timedelta(days=1)``.
+
+
+Instance attributes (read-only):
+
+.. attribute:: date.year
+
+ Between :const:`MINYEAR` and :const:`MAXYEAR` inclusive.
+
+
+.. attribute:: date.month
+
+ Between 1 and 12 inclusive.
+
+
+.. attribute:: date.day
+
+ Between 1 and the number of days in the given month of the given year.
+
+
+Supported operations:
+
++-------------------------------+----------------------------------------------+
+| Operation | Result |
++===============================+==============================================+
+| ``date2 = date1 + timedelta`` | *date2* is ``timedelta.days`` days removed |
+| | from *date1*. (1) |
++-------------------------------+----------------------------------------------+
+| ``date2 = date1 - timedelta`` | Computes *date2* such that ``date2 + |
+| | timedelta == date1``. (2) |
++-------------------------------+----------------------------------------------+
+| ``timedelta = date1 - date2`` | \(3) |
++-------------------------------+----------------------------------------------+
+| ``date1 < date2`` | *date1* is considered less than *date2* when |
+| | *date1* precedes *date2* in time. (4) |
++-------------------------------+----------------------------------------------+
+
+Notes:
+
+(1)
+ *date2* is moved forward in time if ``timedelta.days > 0``, or backward if
+ ``timedelta.days < 0``. Afterward ``date2 - date1 == timedelta.days``.
+ ``timedelta.seconds`` and ``timedelta.microseconds`` are ignored.
+ :exc:`OverflowError` is raised if ``date2.year`` would be smaller than
+ :const:`MINYEAR` or larger than :const:`MAXYEAR`.
+
+(2)
+ This isn't quite equivalent to date1 + (-timedelta), because -timedelta in
+ isolation can overflow in cases where date1 - timedelta does not.
+ ``timedelta.seconds`` and ``timedelta.microseconds`` are ignored.
+
+(3)
+ This is exact, and cannot overflow. timedelta.seconds and
+ timedelta.microseconds are 0, and date2 + timedelta == date1 after.
+
+(4)
+ In other words, ``date1 < date2`` if and only if ``date1.toordinal() <
+ date2.toordinal()``. In order to stop comparison from falling back to the
+ default scheme of comparing object addresses, date comparison normally raises
+ :exc:`TypeError` if the other comparand isn't also a :class:`date` object.
+ However, ``NotImplemented`` is returned instead if the other comparand has a
+ :meth:`timetuple` attribute. This hook gives other kinds of date objects a
+ chance at implementing mixed-type comparison. If not, when a :class:`date`
+ object is compared to an object of a different type, :exc:`TypeError` is raised
+ unless the comparison is ``==`` or ``!=``. The latter cases return
+ :const:`False` or :const:`True`, respectively.
+
+Dates can be used as dictionary keys. In Boolean contexts, all :class:`date`
+objects are considered to be true.
+
+Instance methods:
+
+.. method:: date.replace(year, month, day)
+
+ Return a date with the same value, except for those parameters given new
+ values by whichever keyword arguments are specified. For example, if ``d ==
+ date(2002, 12, 31)``, then ``d.replace(day=26) == date(2002, 12, 26)``.
+
+
+.. method:: date.timetuple()
+
+ Return a :class:`time.struct_time` such as returned by :func:`time.localtime`.
+ The hours, minutes and seconds are 0, and the DST flag is -1. ``d.timetuple()``
+ is equivalent to ``time.struct_time((d.year, d.month, d.day, 0, 0, 0,
+ d.weekday(), yday, -1))``, where ``yday = d.toordinal() - date(d.year, 1,
+ 1).toordinal() + 1`` is the day number within the current year starting with
+ ``1`` for January 1st.
+
+
+.. method:: date.toordinal()
+
+ Return the proleptic Gregorian ordinal of the date, where January 1 of year 1
+ has ordinal 1. For any :class:`date` object *d*,
+ ``date.fromordinal(d.toordinal()) == d``.
+
+
+.. method:: date.weekday()
+
+ Return the day of the week as an integer, where Monday is 0 and Sunday is 6.
+ For example, ``date(2002, 12, 4).weekday() == 2``, a Wednesday. See also
+ :meth:`isoweekday`.
+
+
+.. method:: date.isoweekday()
+
+ Return the day of the week as an integer, where Monday is 1 and Sunday is 7.
+ For example, ``date(2002, 12, 4).isoweekday() == 3``, a Wednesday. See also
+ :meth:`weekday`, :meth:`isocalendar`.
+
+
+.. method:: date.isocalendar()
+
+ Return a 3-tuple, (ISO year, ISO week number, ISO weekday).
+
+ The ISO calendar is a widely used variant of the Gregorian calendar. See
+ http://www.phys.uu.nl/~vgent/calendar/isocalendar.htm for a good
+ explanation.
+
+ The ISO year consists of 52 or 53 full weeks, and where a week starts on a
+ Monday and ends on a Sunday. The first week of an ISO year is the first
+ (Gregorian) calendar week of a year containing a Thursday. This is called week
+ number 1, and the ISO year of that Thursday is the same as its Gregorian year.
+
+ For example, 2004 begins on a Thursday, so the first week of ISO year 2004
+ begins on Monday, 29 Dec 2003 and ends on Sunday, 4 Jan 2004, so that
+ ``date(2003, 12, 29).isocalendar() == (2004, 1, 1)`` and ``date(2004, 1,
+ 4).isocalendar() == (2004, 1, 7)``.
+
+
+.. method:: date.isoformat()
+
+ Return a string representing the date in ISO 8601 format, 'YYYY-MM-DD'. For
+ example, ``date(2002, 12, 4).isoformat() == '2002-12-04'``.
+
+
+.. method:: date.__str__()
+
+ For a date *d*, ``str(d)`` is equivalent to ``d.isoformat()``.
+
+
+.. method:: date.ctime()
+
+ Return a string representing the date, for example ``date(2002, 12,
+ 4).ctime() == 'Wed Dec 4 00:00:00 2002'``. ``d.ctime()`` is equivalent to
+ ``time.ctime(time.mktime(d.timetuple()))`` on platforms where the native C
+ :c:func:`ctime` function (which :func:`time.ctime` invokes, but which
+ :meth:`date.ctime` does not invoke) conforms to the C standard.
+
+
+.. method:: date.strftime(format)
+
+ Return a string representing the date, controlled by an explicit format string.
+ Format codes referring to hours, minutes or seconds will see 0 values. See
+ section :ref:`strftime-strptime-behavior`.
+
+
+.. method:: date.__format__(format)
+
+ Same as :meth:`.date.strftime`. This makes it possible to specify format
+ string for a :class:`.date` object when using :meth:`str.format`.
+ See section :ref:`strftime-strptime-behavior`.
+
+
+Example of counting days to an event::
+
+ >>> import time
+ >>> from datetime import date
+ >>> today = date.today()
+ >>> today
+ datetime.date(2007, 12, 5)
+ >>> today == date.fromtimestamp(time.time())

+
+:class:`datetime` Objects
+-------------------------
+
+A :class:`.datetime` object is a single object containing all the information
+from a :class:`date` object and a :class:`.time` object. Like a :class:`date`
+object, :class:`.datetime` assumes the current Gregorian calendar extended in
+both directions; like a time object, :class:`.datetime` assumes there are exactly
+3600\*24 seconds in every day.
+
+Constructor:
+
+.. class:: datetime(year, month, day[, hour[, minute[, second[, microsecond[, tzinfo]]]]])
+
+ The year, month and day arguments are required. *tzinfo* may be ``None``, or an
+ instance of a :class:`tzinfo` subclass. The remaining arguments may be ints or
+ longs, in the following ranges:
+
+ * ``MINYEAR <= year <= MAXYEAR``
+ * ``1 <= month <= 12``
+ * ``1 <= day <= number of days in the given month and year``
+ * ``0 <= hour < 24``
+ * ``0 <= minute < 60``
+ * ``0 <= second < 60``
+ * ``0 <= microsecond < 1000000``
+
+ If an argument outside those ranges is given, :exc:`ValueError` is raised.
+
+Other constructors, all class methods:
+
+.. classmethod:: datetime.today()
+
+ Return the current local datetime, with :attr:`tzinfo` ``None``. This is
+ equivalent to ``datetime.fromtimestamp(time.time())``. See also :meth:`now`,
+ :meth:`fromtimestamp`.
+
+
+.. classmethod:: datetime.now([tz])
+
+ Return the current local date and time. If optional argument *tz* is ``None``
+ or not specified, this is like :meth:`today`, but, if possible, supplies more
+ precision than can be gotten from going through a :func:`time.time` timestamp
+ (for example, this may be possible on platforms supplying the C
+ :c:func:`gettimeofday` function).
+
+ Else *tz* must be an instance of a class :class:`tzinfo` subclass, and the
+ current date and time are converted to *tz*'s time zone. In this case the
+ result is equivalent to ``tz.fromutc(datetime.utcnow().replace(tzinfo=tz))``.
+ See also :meth:`today`, :meth:`utcnow`.
+
+
+.. classmethod:: datetime.utcnow()
+
+ Return the current UTC date and time, with :attr:`tzinfo` ``None``. This is like
+ :meth:`now`, but returns the current UTC date and time, as a naive
+ :class:`.datetime` object. See also :meth:`now`.
+
+
+.. classmethod:: datetime.fromtimestamp(timestamp[, tz])
+
+ Return the local date and time corresponding to the POSIX timestamp, such as is
+ returned by :func:`time.time`. If optional argument *tz* is ``None`` or not
+ specified, the timestamp is converted to the platform's local date and time, and
+ the returned :class:`.datetime` object is naive.
+
+ Else *tz* must be an instance of a class :class:`tzinfo` subclass, and the
+ timestamp is converted to *tz*'s time zone. In this case the result is
+ equivalent to
+ ``tz.fromutc(datetime.utcfromtimestamp(timestamp).replace(tzinfo=tz))``.
+
+ :meth:`fromtimestamp` may raise :exc:`ValueError`, if the timestamp is out of
+ the range of values supported by the platform C :c:func:`localtime` or
+ :c:func:`gmtime` functions. It's common for this to be restricted to years in
+ 1970 through 2038. Note that on non-POSIX systems that include leap seconds in
+ their notion of a timestamp, leap seconds are ignored by :meth:`fromtimestamp`,
+ and then it's possible to have two timestamps differing by a second that yield
+ identical :class:`.datetime` objects. See also :meth:`utcfromtimestamp`.
+
+
+.. classmethod:: datetime.utcfromtimestamp(timestamp)
+
+ Return the UTC :class:`.datetime` corresponding to the POSIX timestamp, with
+ :attr:`tzinfo` ``None``. This may raise :exc:`ValueError`, if the timestamp is
+ out of the range of values supported by the platform C :c:func:`gmtime` function.
+ It's common for this to be restricted to years in 1970 through 2038. See also
+ :meth:`fromtimestamp`.
+
+
+.. classmethod:: datetime.fromordinal(ordinal)
+
+ Return the :class:`.datetime` corresponding to the proleptic Gregorian ordinal,
+ where January 1 of year 1 has ordinal 1. :exc:`ValueError` is raised unless ``1
+ <= ordinal <= datetime.max.toordinal()``. The hour, minute, second and
+ microsecond of the result are all 0, and :attr:`tzinfo` is ``None``.
+
+
+.. classmethod:: datetime.combine(date, time)
+
+ Return a new :class:`.datetime` object whose date components are equal to the
+ given :class:`date` object's, and whose time components and :attr:`tzinfo`
+ attributes are equal to the given :class:`.time` object's. For any
+ :class:`.datetime` object *d*,
+ ``d == datetime.combine(d.date(), d.timetz())``. If date is a
+ :class:`.datetime` object, its time components and :attr:`tzinfo` attributes
+ are ignored.
+
+
+.. classmethod:: datetime.strptime(date_string, format)
+
+ Return a :class:`.datetime` corresponding to *date_string*, parsed according to
+ *format*. This is equivalent to ``datetime(*(time.strptime(date_string,
+ format)[0:6]))``. :exc:`ValueError` is raised if the date_string and format
+ can't be parsed by :func:`time.strptime` or if it returns a value which isn't a
+ time tuple. See section :ref:`strftime-strptime-behavior`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+Class attributes:
+
+.. attribute:: datetime.min
+
+ The earliest representable :class:`.datetime`, ``datetime(MINYEAR, 1, 1,
+ tzinfo=None)``.
+
+
+.. attribute:: datetime.max
+
+ The latest representable :class:`.datetime`, ``datetime(MAXYEAR, 12, 31, 23, 59,
+ 59, 999999, tzinfo=None)``.
+
+
+.. attribute:: datetime.resolution
+
+ The smallest possible difference between non-equal :class:`.datetime` objects,
+ ``timedelta(microseconds=1)``.
+
+
+Instance attributes (read-only):
+
+.. attribute:: datetime.year
+
+ Between :const:`MINYEAR` and :const:`MAXYEAR` inclusive.
+
+
+.. attribute:: datetime.month
+
+ Between 1 and 12 inclusive.
+
+
+.. attribute:: datetime.day
+
+ Between 1 and the number of days in the given month of the given year.
+
+
+.. attribute:: datetime.hour
+
+ In ``range(24)``.
+
+
+.. attribute:: datetime.minute
+
+ In ``range(60)``.
+
+
+.. attribute:: datetime.second
+
+ In ``range(60)``.
+
+
+.. attribute:: datetime.microsecond
+
+ In ``range(1000000)``.
+
+
+.. attribute:: datetime.tzinfo
+
+ The object passed as the *tzinfo* argument to the :class:`.datetime` constructor,
+ or ``None`` if none was passed.
+
+
+Supported operations:
+
++---------------------------------------+--------------------------------+
+| Operation | Result |
++=======================================+================================+
+| ``datetime2 = datetime1 + timedelta`` | \(1) |
++---------------------------------------+--------------------------------+
+| ``datetime2 = datetime1 - timedelta`` | \(2) |
++---------------------------------------+--------------------------------+
+| ``timedelta = datetime1 - datetime2`` | \(3) |
++---------------------------------------+--------------------------------+
+| ``datetime1 < datetime2`` | Compares :class:`.datetime` to |
+| | :class:`.datetime`. (4) |
++---------------------------------------+--------------------------------+
+
+(1)
+ datetime2 is a duration of timedelta removed from datetime1, moving forward in
+ time if ``timedelta.days`` > 0, or backward if ``timedelta.days`` < 0. The
+ result has the same :attr:`tzinfo` attribute as the input datetime, and
+ datetime2 - datetime1 == timedelta after. :exc:`OverflowError` is raised if
+ datetime2.year would be smaller than :const:`MINYEAR` or larger than
+ :const:`MAXYEAR`. Note that no time zone adjustments are done even if the
+ input is an aware object.
+
+(2)
+ Computes the datetime2 such that datetime2 + timedelta == datetime1. As for
+ addition, the result has the same :attr:`tzinfo` attribute as the input
+ datetime, and no time zone adjustments are done even if the input is aware.
+ This isn't quite equivalent to datetime1 + (-timedelta), because -timedelta
+ in isolation can overflow in cases where datetime1 - timedelta does not.
+
+(3)
+ Subtraction of a :class:`.datetime` from a :class:`.datetime` is defined only if
+ both operands are naive, or if both are aware. If one is aware and the other is
+ naive, :exc:`TypeError` is raised.
+
+ If both are naive, or both are aware and have the same :attr:`tzinfo` attribute,
+ the :attr:`tzinfo` attributes are ignored, and the result is a :class:`timedelta`
+ object *t* such that ``datetime2 + t == datetime1``. No time zone adjustments
+ are done in this case.
+
+ If both are aware and have different :attr:`tzinfo` attributes, ``a-b`` acts
+ as if *a* and *b* were first converted to naive UTC datetimes first. The
+ result is ``(a.replace(tzinfo=None) - a.utcoffset()) - (b.replace(tzinfo=None)
+ - b.utcoffset())`` except that the implementation never overflows.
+
+(4)
+ *datetime1* is considered less than *datetime2* when *datetime1* precedes
+ *datetime2* in time.
+
+ If one comparand is naive and the other is aware, :exc:`TypeError` is raised.
+ If both comparands are aware, and have the same :attr:`tzinfo` attribute, the
+ common :attr:`tzinfo` attribute is ignored and the base datetimes are
+ compared. If both comparands are aware and have different :attr:`tzinfo`
+ attributes, the comparands are first adjusted by subtracting their UTC
+ offsets (obtained from ``self.utcoffset()``).
+
+ .. note::
+
+ In order to stop comparison from falling back to the default scheme of comparing
+ object addresses, datetime comparison normally raises :exc:`TypeError` if the
+ other comparand isn't also a :class:`.datetime` object. However,
+ ``NotImplemented`` is returned instead if the other comparand has a
+ :meth:`timetuple` attribute. This hook gives other kinds of date objects a
+ chance at implementing mixed-type comparison. If not, when a :class:`.datetime`
+ object is compared to an object of a different type, :exc:`TypeError` is raised
+ unless the comparison is ``==`` or ``!=``. The latter cases return
+ :const:`False` or :const:`True`, respectively.
+
+:class:`.datetime` objects can be used as dictionary keys. In Boolean contexts,
+all :class:`.datetime` objects are considered to be true.
+
+Instance methods:
+
+.. method:: datetime.date()
+
+ Return :class:`date` object with same year, month and day.
+
+
+.. method:: datetime.time()
+
+ Return :class:`.time` object with same hour, minute, second and microsecond.
+ :attr:`tzinfo` is ``None``. See also method :meth:`timetz`.
+
+
+.. method:: datetime.timetz()
+
+ Return :class:`.time` object with same hour, minute, second, microsecond, and
+ tzinfo attributes. See also method :meth:`time`.
+
+
+.. method:: datetime.replace([year[, month[, day[, hour[, minute[, second[, microsecond[, tzinfo]]]]]]]])
+
+ Return a datetime with the same attributes, except for those attributes given
+ new values by whichever keyword arguments are specified. Note that
+ ``tzinfo=None`` can be specified to create a naive datetime from an aware
+ datetime with no conversion of date and time data.
+
+
+.. method:: datetime.astimezone(tz)
+
+ Return a :class:`.datetime` object with new :attr:`tzinfo` attribute *tz*,
+ adjusting the date and time data so the result is the same UTC time as
+ *self*, but in *tz*'s local time.
+
+ *tz* must be an instance of a :class:`tzinfo` subclass, and its
+ :meth:`utcoffset` and :meth:`dst` methods must not return ``None``. *self* must
+ be aware (``self.tzinfo`` must not be ``None``, and ``self.utcoffset()`` must
+ not return ``None``).
+
+ If ``self.tzinfo`` is *tz*, ``self.astimezone(tz)`` is equal to *self*: no
+ adjustment of date or time data is performed. Else the result is local
+ time in time zone *tz*, representing the same UTC time as *self*: after
+ ``astz = dt.astimezone(tz)``, ``astz - astz.utcoffset()`` will usually have
+ the same date and time data as ``dt - dt.utcoffset()``. The discussion
+ of class :class:`tzinfo` explains the cases at Daylight Saving Time transition
+ boundaries where this cannot be achieved (an issue only if *tz* models both
+ standard and daylight time).
+
+ If you merely want to attach a time zone object *tz* to a datetime *dt* without
+ adjustment of date and time data, use ``dt.replace(tzinfo=tz)``. If you
+ merely want to remove the time zone object from an aware datetime *dt* without
+ conversion of date and time data, use ``dt.replace(tzinfo=None)``.
+
+ Note that the default :meth:`tzinfo.fromutc` method can be overridden in a
+ :class:`tzinfo` subclass to affect the result returned by :meth:`astimezone`.
+ Ignoring error cases, :meth:`astimezone` acts like::
+
+ def astimezone(self, tz):
+ if self.tzinfo is tz:
+ return self
+ # Convert self to UTC, and attach the new time zone object.
+ utc = (self - self.utcoffset()).replace(tzinfo=tz)
+ # Convert from UTC to tz's local time.
+ return tz.fromutc(utc)
+
+
+.. method:: datetime.utcoffset()
+
+ If :attr:`tzinfo` is ``None``, returns ``None``, else returns
+ ``self.tzinfo.utcoffset(self)``, and raises an exception if the latter doesn't
+ return ``None``, or a :class:`timedelta` object representing a whole number of
+ minutes with magnitude less than one day.
+
+
+.. method:: datetime.dst()
+
+ If :attr:`tzinfo` is ``None``, returns ``None``, else returns
+ ``self.tzinfo.dst(self)``, and raises an exception if the latter doesn't return
+ ``None``, or a :class:`timedelta` object representing a whole number of minutes
+ with magnitude less than one day.
+
+
+.. method:: datetime.tzname()
+
+ If :attr:`tzinfo` is ``None``, returns ``None``, else returns
+ ``self.tzinfo.tzname(self)``, raises an exception if the latter doesn't return
+ ``None`` or a string object,
+
+
+.. method:: datetime.timetuple()
+
+ Return a :class:`time.struct_time` such as returned by :func:`time.localtime`.
+ ``d.timetuple()`` is equivalent to ``time.struct_time((d.year, d.month, d.day,
+ d.hour, d.minute, d.second, d.weekday(), yday, dst))``, where ``yday =
+ d.toordinal() - date(d.year, 1, 1).toordinal() + 1`` is the day number within
+ the current year starting with ``1`` for January 1st. The :attr:`tm_isdst` flag
+ of the result is set according to the :meth:`dst` method: :attr:`tzinfo` is
+ ``None`` or :meth:`dst` returns ``None``, :attr:`tm_isdst` is set to ``-1``;
+ else if :meth:`dst` returns a non-zero value, :attr:`tm_isdst` is set to ``1``;
+ else :attr:`tm_isdst` is set to ``0``.
+
+
+.. method:: datetime.utctimetuple()
+
+ If :class:`.datetime` instance *d* is naive, this is the same as
+ ``d.timetuple()`` except that :attr:`tm_isdst` is forced to 0 regardless of what
+ ``d.dst()`` returns. DST is never in effect for a UTC time.
+
+ If *d* is aware, *d* is normalized to UTC time, by subtracting
+ ``d.utcoffset()``, and a :class:`time.struct_time` for the normalized time is
+ returned. :attr:`tm_isdst` is forced to 0. Note that the result's
+ :attr:`tm_year` member may be :const:`MINYEAR`\ -1 or :const:`MAXYEAR`\ +1, if
+ *d*.year was ``MINYEAR`` or ``MAXYEAR`` and UTC adjustment spills over a year
+ boundary.
+
+
+.. method:: datetime.toordinal()
+
+ Return the proleptic Gregorian ordinal of the date. The same as
+ ``self.date().toordinal()``.
+
+
+.. method:: datetime.weekday()
+
+ Return the day of the week as an integer, where Monday is 0 and Sunday is 6.
+ The same as ``self.date().weekday()``. See also :meth:`isoweekday`.
+
+
+.. method:: datetime.isoweekday()
+
+ Return the day of the week as an integer, where Monday is 1 and Sunday is 7.
+ The same as ``self.date().isoweekday()``. See also :meth:`weekday`,
+ :meth:`isocalendar`.
+
+
+.. method:: datetime.isocalendar()
+
+ Return a 3-tuple, (ISO year, ISO week number, ISO weekday). The same as
+ ``self.date().isocalendar()``.
+
+
+.. method:: datetime.isoformat([sep])
+
+ Return a string representing the date and time in ISO 8601 format,
+ YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS.mmmmmm or, if :attr:`microsecond` is 0,
+ YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS
+
+ If :meth:`utcoffset` does not return ``None``, a 6-character string is
+ appended, giving the UTC offset in (signed) hours and minutes:
+ YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS.mmmmmm+HH:MM or, if :attr:`microsecond` is 0
+ YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS+HH:MM
+
+ The optional argument *sep* (default ``'T'``) is a one-character separator,
+ placed between the date and time portions of the result. For example,
+
+ >>> from datetime import tzinfo, timedelta, datetime
+ >>> class TZ(tzinfo):
+ ... def utcoffset(self, dt): return timedelta(minutes=-399)
+ ...
+ >>> datetime(2002, 12, 25, tzinfo=TZ()).isoformat(' ')
+ '2002-12-25 00:00:00-06:39'
+
+
+.. method:: datetime.__str__()
+
+ For a :class:`.datetime` instance *d*, ``str(d)`` is equivalent to
+ ``d.isoformat(' ')``.
+
+
+.. method:: datetime.ctime()
+
+ Return a string representing the date and time, for example ``datetime(2002, 12,
+ 4, 20, 30, 40).ctime() == 'Wed Dec 4 20:30:40 2002'``. ``d.ctime()`` is
+ equivalent to ``time.ctime(time.mktime(d.timetuple()))`` on platforms where the
+ native C :c:func:`ctime` function (which :func:`time.ctime` invokes, but which
+ :meth:`datetime.ctime` does not invoke) conforms to the C standard.
+
+
+.. method:: datetime.strftime(format)
+
+ Return a string representing the date and time, controlled by an explicit format
+ string. See section :ref:`strftime-strptime-behavior`.
+
+
+.. method:: datetime.__format__(format)
+
+ Same as :meth:`.datetime.strftime`. This makes it possible to specify format
+ string for a :class:`.datetime` object when using :meth:`str.format`.

+.. _datetime-time:
+
+:class:`time` Objects
+---------------------
+
+A time object represents a (local) time of day, independent of any particular
+day, and subject to adjustment via a :class:`tzinfo` object.
+
+.. class:: time([hour[, minute[, second[, microsecond[, tzinfo]]]]])
+
+ All arguments are optional. *tzinfo* may be ``None``, or an instance of a
+ :class:`tzinfo` subclass. The remaining arguments may be ints or longs, in the
+ following ranges:
+
+ * ``0 <= hour < 24``
+ * ``0 <= minute < 60``
+ * ``0 <= second < 60``
+ * ``0 <= microsecond < 1000000``.
+
+ If an argument outside those ranges is given, :exc:`ValueError` is raised. All
+ default to ``0`` except *tzinfo*, which defaults to :const:`None`.
+
+Class attributes:
+
+
+.. attribute:: time.min
+
+ The earliest representable :class:`.time`, ``time(0, 0, 0, 0)``.
+
+
+.. attribute:: time.max
+
+ The latest representable :class:`.time`, ``time(23, 59, 59, 999999)``.
+
+
+.. attribute:: time.resolution
+
+ The smallest possible difference between non-equal :class:`.time` objects,
+ ``timedelta(microseconds=1)``, although note that arithmetic on
+ :class:`.time` objects is not supported.
+
+
+Instance attributes (read-only):
+
+.. attribute:: time.hour
+
+ In ``range(24)``.
+
+
+.. attribute:: time.minute
+
+ In ``range(60)``.
+
+
+.. attribute:: time.second
+
+ In ``range(60)``.
+
+
+.. attribute:: time.microsecond
+
+ In ``range(1000000)``.
+
+
+.. attribute:: time.tzinfo
+
+ The object passed as the tzinfo argument to the :class:`.time` constructor, or
+ ``None`` if none was passed.
+
+
+Supported operations:
+
+* comparison of :class:`.time` to :class:`.time`, where *a* is considered less
+ than *b* when *a* precedes *b* in time. If one comparand is naive and the other
+ is aware, :exc:`TypeError` is raised. If both comparands are aware, and have
+ the same :attr:`tzinfo` attribute, the common :attr:`tzinfo` attribute is
+ ignored and the base times are compared. If both comparands are aware and
+ have different :attr:`tzinfo` attributes, the comparands are first adjusted by
+ subtracting their UTC offsets (obtained from ``self.utcoffset()``). In order
+ to stop mixed-type comparisons from falling back to the default comparison by
+ object address, when a :class:`.time` object is compared to an object of a
+ different type, :exc:`TypeError` is raised unless the comparison is ``==`` or
+ ``!=``. The latter cases return :const:`False` or :const:`True`, respectively.
+
+* hash, use as dict key
+
+* efficient pickling
+
+* in Boolean contexts, a :class:`.time` object is considered to be true if and
+ only if, after converting it to minutes and subtracting :meth:`utcoffset` (or
+ ``0`` if that's ``None``), the result is non-zero.
+
+
+Instance methods:
+
+.. method:: time.replace([hour[, minute[, second[, microsecond[, tzinfo]]]]])
+
+ Return a :class:`.time` with the same value, except for those attributes given
+ new values by whichever keyword arguments are specified. Note that
+ ``tzinfo=None`` can be specified to create a naive :class:`.time` from an
+ aware :class:`.time`, without conversion of the time data.
+
+
+.. method:: time.isoformat()
+
+ Return a string representing the time in ISO 8601 format, HH:MM:SS.mmmmmm or, if
+ self.microsecond is 0, HH:MM:SS If :meth:`utcoffset` does not return ``None``, a
+ 6-character string is appended, giving the UTC offset in (signed) hours and
+ minutes: HH:MM:SS.mmmmmm+HH:MM or, if self.microsecond is 0, HH:MM:SS+HH:MM
+
+
+.. method:: time.__str__()
+
+ For a time *t*, ``str(t)`` is equivalent to ``t.isoformat()``.
+
+
+.. method:: time.strftime(format)
+
+ Return a string representing the time, controlled by an explicit format string.
+ See section :ref:`strftime-strptime-behavior`.
+
+
+.. method:: time.__format__(format)
+
+ Same as :meth:`.time.strftime`. This makes it possible to specify format string
+ for a :class:`.time` object when using :meth:`str.format`.
+ See section :ref:`strftime-strptime-behavior`.
+
+
+.. method:: time.utcoffset()
+
+ If :attr:`tzinfo` is ``None``, returns ``None``, else returns
+ ``self.tzinfo.utcoffset(None)``, and raises an exception if the latter doesn't
+ return ``None`` or a :class:`timedelta` object representing a whole number of
+ minutes with magnitude less than one day.
+
+
+.. method:: time.dst()
+
+ If :attr:`tzinfo` is ``None``, returns ``None``, else returns
+ ``self.tzinfo.dst(None)``, and raises an exception if the latter doesn't return
+ ``None``, or a :class:`timedelta` object representing a whole number of minutes
+ with magnitude less than one day.
+
+
+.. method:: time.tzname()
+
+ If :attr:`tzinfo` is ``None``, returns ``None``, else returns
+ ``self.tzinfo.tzname(None)``, or raises an exception if the latter doesn't
+ return ``None`` or a string object.
+
+
+Example:
+
+ >>> from datetime import time, tzinfo
+ >>> class GMT1(tzinfo):
+ ... def utcoffset(self, dt):
+ ... return timedelta(hours=1)
+ ... def dst(self, dt):
+ ... return timedelta(0)
+ ... def tzname(self,dt):
+ ... return "Europe/Prague"
+ ...
+ >>> t = time(12, 10, 30, tzinfo=GMT1())
+ >>> t # doctest: +ELLIPSIS

+
+
+.. _datetime-tzinfo:
+
+:class:`tzinfo` Objects
+-----------------------
+
+:class:`tzinfo` is an abstract base class, meaning that this class should not be
+instantiated directly. You need to derive a concrete subclass, and (at least)
+supply implementations of the standard :class:`tzinfo` methods needed by the
+:class:`.datetime` methods you use. The :mod:`datetime` module does not supply
+any concrete subclasses of :class:`tzinfo`.
+
+An instance of (a concrete subclass of) :class:`tzinfo` can be passed to the
+constructors for :class:`.datetime` and :class:`.time` objects. The latter objects
+view their attributes as being in local time, and the :class:`tzinfo` object
+supports methods revealing offset of local time from UTC, the name of the time
+zone, and DST offset, all relative to a date or time object passed to them.
+
+Special requirement for pickling: A :class:`tzinfo` subclass must have an
+:meth:`__init__` method that can be called with no arguments, else it can be
+pickled but possibly not unpickled again. This is a technical requirement that
+may be relaxed in the future.
+
+A concrete subclass of :class:`tzinfo` may need to implement the following
+methods. Exactly which methods are needed depends on the uses made of aware
+:mod:`datetime` objects. If in doubt, simply implement all of them.
+
+
+.. method:: tzinfo.utcoffset(self, dt)
+
+ Return offset of local time from UTC, in minutes east of UTC. If local time is
+ west of UTC, this should be negative. Note that this is intended to be the
+ total offset from UTC; for example, if a :class:`tzinfo` object represents both
+ time zone and DST adjustments, :meth:`utcoffset` should return their sum. If
+ the UTC offset isn't known, return ``None``. Else the value returned must be a
+ :class:`timedelta` object specifying a whole number of minutes in the range
+ -1439 to 1439 inclusive (1440 = 24\*60; the magnitude of the offset must be less
+ than one day). Most implementations of :meth:`utcoffset` will probably look
+ like one of these two::
+
+ return CONSTANT # fixed-offset class
+ return CONSTANT + self.dst(dt) # daylight-aware class
+
+ If :meth:`utcoffset` does not return ``None``, :meth:`dst` should not return
+ ``None`` either.
+
+ The default implementation of :meth:`utcoffset` raises
+ :exc:`NotImplementedError`.
+
+
+.. method:: tzinfo.dst(self, dt)
+
+ Return the daylight saving time (DST) adjustment, in minutes east of UTC, or
+ ``None`` if DST information isn't known. Return ``timedelta(0)`` if DST is not
+ in effect. If DST is in effect, return the offset as a :class:`timedelta` object
+ (see :meth:`utcoffset` for details). Note that DST offset, if applicable, has
+ already been added to the UTC offset returned by :meth:`utcoffset`, so there's
+ no need to consult :meth:`dst` unless you're interested in obtaining DST info
+ separately. For example, :meth:`datetime.timetuple` calls its :attr:`tzinfo`
+ attribute's :meth:`dst` method to determine how the :attr:`tm_isdst` flag
+ should be set, and :meth:`tzinfo.fromutc` calls :meth:`dst` to account for
+ DST changes when crossing time zones.
+
+ An instance *tz* of a :class:`tzinfo` subclass that models both standard and
+ daylight times must be consistent in this sense:
+
+ ``tz.utcoffset(dt) - tz.dst(dt)``
+
+ must return the same result for every :class:`.datetime` *dt* with ``dt.tzinfo ==
+ tz`` For sane :class:`tzinfo` subclasses, this expression yields the time
+ zone's "standard offset", which should not depend on the date or the time, but
+ only on geographic location. The implementation of :meth:`datetime.astimezone`
+ relies on this, but cannot detect violations; it's the programmer's
+ responsibility to ensure it. If a :class:`tzinfo` subclass cannot guarantee
+ this, it may be able to override the default implementation of
+ :meth:`tzinfo.fromutc` to work correctly with :meth:`astimezone` regardless.
+
+ Most implementations of :meth:`dst` will probably look like one of these two::
+
+ def dst(self, dt):
+ # a fixed-offset class: doesn't account for DST
+ return timedelta(0)
+
+ or ::
+
+ def dst(self, dt):
+ # Code to set dston and dstoff to the time zone's DST
+ # transition times based on the input dt.year, and expressed
+ # in standard local time. Then
+
+ if dston <= dt.replace(tzinfo=None) < dstoff:
+ return timedelta(hours=1)
+ else:
+ return timedelta(0)
+
+ The default implementation of :meth:`dst` raises :exc:`NotImplementedError`.
+
+
+.. method:: tzinfo.tzname(self, dt)
+
+ Return the time zone name corresponding to the :class:`.datetime` object *dt*, as
+ a string. Nothing about string names is defined by the :mod:`datetime` module,
+ and there's no requirement that it mean anything in particular. For example,
+ "GMT", "UTC", "-500", "-5:00", "EDT", "US/Eastern", "America/New York" are all
+ valid replies. Return ``None`` if a string name isn't known. Note that this is
+ a method rather than a fixed string primarily because some :class:`tzinfo`
+ subclasses will wish to return different names depending on the specific value
+ of *dt* passed, especially if the :class:`tzinfo` class is accounting for
+ daylight time.
+
+ The default implementation of :meth:`tzname` raises :exc:`NotImplementedError`.
+
+
+These methods are called by a :class:`.datetime` or :class:`.time` object, in
+response to their methods of the same names. A :class:`.datetime` object passes
+itself as the argument, and a :class:`.time` object passes ``None`` as the
+argument. A :class:`tzinfo` subclass's methods should therefore be prepared to
+accept a *dt* argument of ``None``, or of class :class:`.datetime`.
+
+When ``None`` is passed, it's up to the class designer to decide the best
+response. For example, returning ``None`` is appropriate if the class wishes to
+say that time objects don't participate in the :class:`tzinfo` protocols. It
+may be more useful for ``utcoffset(None)`` to return the standard UTC offset, as
+there is no other convention for discovering the standard offset.
+
+When a :class:`.datetime` object is passed in response to a :class:`.datetime`
+method, ``dt.tzinfo`` is the same object as *self*. :class:`tzinfo` methods can
+rely on this, unless user code calls :class:`tzinfo` methods directly. The
+intent is that the :class:`tzinfo` methods interpret *dt* as being in local
+time, and not need worry about objects in other timezones.
+
+There is one more :class:`tzinfo` method that a subclass may wish to override:
+
+
+.. method:: tzinfo.fromutc(self, dt)
+
+ This is called from the default :class:`datetime.astimezone()`
+ implementation. When called from that, ``dt.tzinfo`` is *self*, and *dt*'s
+ date and time data are to be viewed as expressing a UTC time. The purpose
+ of :meth:`fromutc` is to adjust the date and time data, returning an
+ equivalent datetime in *self*'s local time.
+
+ Most :class:`tzinfo` subclasses should be able to inherit the default
+ :meth:`fromutc` implementation without problems. It's strong enough to handle
+ fixed-offset time zones, and time zones accounting for both standard and
+ daylight time, and the latter even if the DST transition times differ in
+ different years. An example of a time zone the default :meth:`fromutc`
+ implementation may not handle correctly in all cases is one where the standard
+ offset (from UTC) depends on the specific date and time passed, which can happen
+ for political reasons. The default implementations of :meth:`astimezone` and
+ :meth:`fromutc` may not produce the result you want if the result is one of the
+ hours straddling the moment the standard offset changes.
+
+ Skipping code for error cases, the default :meth:`fromutc` implementation acts
+ like::
+
+ def fromutc(self, dt):
+ # raise ValueError error if dt.tzinfo is not self
+ dtoff = dt.utcoffset()
+ dtdst = dt.dst()
+ # raise ValueError if dtoff is None or dtdst is None
+ delta = dtoff - dtdst # this is self's standard offset
+ if delta:
+ dt += delta # convert to standard local time
+ dtdst = dt.dst()
+ # raise ValueError if dtdst is None
+ if dtdst:
+ return dt + dtdst
+ else:
+ return dt
+
+Example :class:`tzinfo` classes:
+
+.. literalinclude:: ../includes/tzinfo-examples.py
+
+
+Note that there are unavoidable subtleties twice per year in a :class:`tzinfo`
+subclass accounting for both standard and daylight time, at the DST transition
+points. For concreteness, consider US Eastern (UTC -0500), where EDT begins the
+minute after 1:59 (EST) on the second Sunday in March, and ends the minute after
+1:59 (EDT) on the first Sunday in November::
+
+ UTC 3:MM 4:MM 5:MM 6:MM 7:MM 8:MM
+ EST 22:MM 23:MM 0:MM 1:MM 2:MM 3:MM
+ EDT 23:MM 0:MM 1:MM 2:MM 3:MM 4:MM
+
+ start 22:MM 23:MM 0:MM 1:MM 3:MM 4:MM
+
+ end 23:MM 0:MM 1:MM 1:MM 2:MM 3:MM
+
+When DST starts (the "start" line), the local wall clock leaps from 1:59 to
+3:00. A wall time of the form 2:MM doesn't really make sense on that day, so
+``astimezone(Eastern)`` won't deliver a result with ``hour == 2`` on the day DST
+begins. In order for :meth:`astimezone` to make this guarantee, the
+:meth:`rzinfo.dst` method must consider times in the "missing hour" (2:MM for
+Eastern) to be in daylight time.
+
+When DST ends (the "end" line), there's a potentially worse problem: there's an
+hour that can't be spelled unambiguously in local wall time: the last hour of
+daylight time. In Eastern, that's times of the form 5:MM UTC on the day
+daylight time ends. The local wall clock leaps from 1:59 (daylight time) back
+to 1:00 (standard time) again. Local times of the form 1:MM are ambiguous.
+:meth:`astimezone` mimics the local clock's behavior by mapping two adjacent UTC
+hours into the same local hour then. In the Eastern example, UTC times of the
+form 5:MM and 6:MM both map to 1:MM when converted to Eastern. In order for
+:meth:`astimezone` to make this guarantee, the :meth:`tzinfo.dst` method must
+consider times in the "repeated hour" to be in standard time. This is easily
+arranged, as in the example, by expressing DST switch times in the time zone's
+standard local time.
+
+Applications that can't bear such ambiguities should avoid using hybrid
+:class:`tzinfo` subclasses; there are no ambiguities when using UTC, or any
+other fixed-offset :class:`tzinfo` subclass (such as a class representing only
+EST (fixed offset -5 hours), or only EDT (fixed offset -4 hours)).
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ `pytz <http://pypi.python.org/pypi/pytz/>`_
+ The standard library has no :class:`tzinfo` instances, but
+ there exists a third-party library which brings the *IANA timezone
+ database* (also known as the Olson database) to Python: *pytz*.
+
+ *pytz* contains up-to-date information and its usage is recommended.
+
+ `IANA timezone database <http://www.iana.org/time-zones>`_
+ The Time Zone Database (often called tz or zoneinfo) contains code and
+ data that represent the history of local time for many representative
+ locations around the globe. It is updated periodically to reflect changes
+ made by political bodies to time zone boundaries, UTC offsets, and
+ daylight-saving rules.
+
+.. _strftime-strptime-behavior:
+
+:meth:`strftime` and :meth:`strptime` Behavior
+----------------------------------------------
+
+:class:`date`, :class:`.datetime`, and :class:`.time` objects all support a
+``strftime(format)`` method, to create a string representing the time under the
+control of an explicit format string. Broadly speaking, ``d.strftime(fmt)``
+acts like the :mod:`time` module's ``time.strftime(fmt, d.timetuple())``
+although not all objects support a :meth:`timetuple` method.
+
+Conversely, the :meth:`datetime.strptime` class method creates a
+:class:`.datetime` object from a string representing a date and time and a
+corresponding format string. ``datetime.strptime(date_string, format)`` is
+equivalent to ``datetime(*(time.strptime(date_string, format)[0:6]))``.
+
+For :class:`.time` objects, the format codes for year, month, and day should not
+be used, as time objects have no such values. If they're used anyway, ``1900``
+is substituted for the year, and ``1`` for the month and day.
+
+For :class:`date` objects, the format codes for hours, minutes, seconds, and
+microseconds should not be used, as :class:`date` objects have no such
+values. If they're used anyway, ``0`` is substituted for them.
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.6
+ :class:`.time` and :class:`.datetime` objects support a ``%f`` format code
+ which expands to the number of microseconds in the object, zero-padded on
+ the left to six places.
+
+For a naive object, the ``%z`` and ``%Z`` format codes are replaced by empty
+strings.
+
+For an aware object:
+
+``%z``
+ :meth:`utcoffset` is transformed into a 5-character string of the form +HHMM or
+ -HHMM, where HH is a 2-digit string giving the number of UTC offset hours, and
+ MM is a 2-digit string giving the number of UTC offset minutes. For example, if
+ :meth:`utcoffset` returns ``timedelta(hours=-3, minutes=-30)``, ``%z`` is
+ replaced with the string ``'-0330'``.
+
+``%Z``
+ If :meth:`tzname` returns ``None``, ``%Z`` is replaced by an empty string.
+ Otherwise ``%Z`` is replaced by the returned value, which must be a string.
+
+The full set of format codes supported varies across platforms, because Python
+calls the platform C library's :func:`strftime` function, and platform
+variations are common.
+
+The following is a list of all the format codes that the C standard (1989
+version) requires, and these work on all platforms with a standard C
+implementation. Note that the 1999 version of the C standard added additional
+format codes.
+
+The exact range of years for which :meth:`strftime` works also varies across
+platforms. Regardless of platform, years before 1900 cannot be used.

+(1)
+ When used with the :meth:`strptime` method, the ``%f`` directive
+ accepts from one to six digits and zero pads on the right. ``%f`` is
+ an extension to the set of format characters in the C standard (but
+ implemented separately in datetime objects, and therefore always
+ available).
+
+(2)
+ When used with the :meth:`strptime` method, the ``%p`` directive only affects
+ the output hour field if the ``%I`` directive is used to parse the hour.
+
+(3)
+ The range really is ``0`` to ``61``; according to the Posix standard this
+ accounts for leap seconds and the (very rare) double leap seconds.
+ The :mod:`time` module may produce and does accept leap seconds since
+ it is based on the Posix standard, but the :mod:`datetime` module
+ does not accept leap seconds in :meth:`strptime` input nor will it
+ produce them in :func:`strftime` output.
+
+(4)
+ When used with the :meth:`strptime` method, ``%U`` and ``%W`` are only used in
+ calculations when the day of the week and the year are specified.
+
+(5)
+ For example, if :meth:`utcoffset` returns ``timedelta(hours=-3, minutes=-30)``,
+ ``%z`` is replaced with the string ``'-0330'``.

+:mod:`dbhash` --- DBM-style interface to the BSD database library
+=================================================================
+
+.. module:: dbhash
+ :synopsis: DBM-style interface to the BSD database library.
+.. sectionauthor:: Fred L. Drake, Jr. <[email protected]>
+
+.. deprecated:: 2.6
+ The :mod:`dbhash` module has been removed in Python 3.
+
+.. index:: module: bsddb
+
+The :mod:`dbhash` module provides a function to open databases using the BSD
+``db`` library. This module mirrors the interface of the other Python database
+modules that provide access to DBM-style databases. The :mod:`bsddb` module is
+required to use :mod:`dbhash`.
+
+This module provides an exception and a function:
+
+
+.. exception:: error
+
+ Exception raised on database errors other than :exc:`KeyError`. It is a synonym
+ for :exc:`bsddb.error`.
+
+
+.. function:: open(path[, flag[, mode]])
+
+ Open a ``db`` database and return the database object. The *path* argument is
+ the name of the database file.
+
+ The *flag* argument can be:
+
+ +---------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | Value | Meaning |
+ +=========+===========================================+
+ | ``'r'`` | Open existing database for reading only |
+ | | (default) |
+ +---------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'w'`` | Open existing database for reading and |
+ | | writing |
+ +---------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'c'`` | Open database for reading and writing, |
+ | | creating it if it doesn't exist |
+ +---------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'n'`` | Always create a new, empty database, open |
+ | | for reading and writing |
+ +---------+-------------------------------------------+
+
+ For platforms on which the BSD ``db`` library supports locking, an ``'l'``
+ can be appended to indicate that locking should be used.
+
+ The optional *mode* parameter is used to indicate the Unix permission bits that
+ should be set if a new database must be created; this will be masked by the
+ current umask value for the process.

+
+Database Objects
+----------------
+
+The database objects returned by :func:`.open` provide the methods common to all
+the DBM-style databases and mapping objects. The following methods are
+available in addition to the standard methods.
+
+
+.. method:: dbhash.first()
+
+ It's possible to loop over every key/value pair in the database using this
+ method and the :meth:`!next` method. The traversal is ordered by the databases
+ internal hash values, and won't be sorted by the key values. This method
+ returns the starting key.
+
+
+.. method:: dbhash.last()
+
+ Return the last key/value pair in a database traversal. This may be used to
+ begin a reverse-order traversal; see :meth:`previous`.
+
+
+.. method:: dbhash.next()
+
+ Returns the key next key/value pair in a database traversal. The following code
+ prints every key in the database ``db``, without having to create a list in
+ memory that contains them all::
+
+ print db.first()
+ for i in xrange(1, len(db)):
+ print db.next()
+
+
+.. method:: dbhash.previous()
+
+ Returns the previous key/value pair in a forward-traversal of the database. In
+ conjunction with :meth:`last`, this may be used to implement a reverse-order
+ traversal.
+
+
+.. method:: dbhash.sync()
+
+ This method forces any unwritten data to be written to the disk.

+:mod:`dbm` --- Simple "database" interface
+==========================================
+
+.. module:: dbm
+ :platform: Unix
+ :synopsis: The standard "database" interface, based on ndbm.
+
+.. note::
+ The :mod:`dbm` module has been renamed to :mod:`dbm.ndbm` in Python 3. The
+ :term:`2to3` tool will automatically adapt imports when converting your
+ sources to Python 3.
+
+
+The :mod:`dbm` module provides an interface to the Unix "(n)dbm" library. Dbm
+objects behave like mappings (dictionaries), except that keys and values are
+always strings. Printing a dbm object doesn't print the keys and values, and the
+:meth:`items` and :meth:`values` methods are not supported.
+
+This module can be used with the "classic" ndbm interface, the BSD DB
+compatibility interface, or the GNU GDBM compatibility interface. On Unix, the
+:program:`configure` script will attempt to locate the appropriate header file
+to simplify building this module.
+
+The module defines the following:
+
+
+.. exception:: error
+
+ Raised on dbm-specific errors, such as I/O errors. :exc:`KeyError` is raised for
+ general mapping errors like specifying an incorrect key.
+
+
+.. data:: library
+
+ Name of the ``ndbm`` implementation library used.
+
+
+.. function:: open(filename[, flag[, mode]])
+
+ Open a dbm database and return a dbm object. The *filename* argument is the
+ name of the database file (without the :file:`.dir` or :file:`.pag` extensions;
+ note that the BSD DB implementation of the interface will append the extension
+ :file:`.db` and only create one file).
+
+ The optional *flag* argument must be one of these values:
+
+ +---------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | Value | Meaning |
+ +=========+===========================================+
+ | ``'r'`` | Open existing database for reading only |
+ | | (default) |
+ +---------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'w'`` | Open existing database for reading and |

+ +---------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'n'`` | Always create a new, empty database, open |
+ | | for reading and writing |
+ +---------+-------------------------------------------+
+
+ The optional *mode* argument is the Unix mode of the file, used only when the
+ database has to be created. It defaults to octal ``0666`` (and will be
+ modified by the prevailing umask).

+
+The :mod:`decimal` module provides support for decimal floating point
+arithmetic. It offers several advantages over the :class:`float` datatype:
+
+* Decimal "is based on a floating-point model which was designed with people
+ in mind, and necessarily has a paramount guiding principle -- computers must
+ provide an arithmetic that works in the same way as the arithmetic that
+ people learn at school." -- excerpt from the decimal arithmetic specification.
+
+* Decimal numbers can be represented exactly. In contrast, numbers like
+ :const:`1.1` and :const:`2.2` do not have exact representations in binary
+ floating point. End users typically would not expect ``1.1 + 2.2`` to display
+ as :const:`3.3000000000000003` as it does with binary floating point.
+
+* The exactness carries over into arithmetic. In decimal floating point, ``0.1
+ + 0.1 + 0.1 - 0.3`` is exactly equal to zero. In binary floating point, the result
+ is :const:`5.5511151231257827e-017`. While near to zero, the differences
+ prevent reliable equality testing and differences can accumulate. For this
+ reason, decimal is preferred in accounting applications which have strict
+ equality invariants.
+
+* The decimal module incorporates a notion of significant places so that ``1.30
+ + 1.20`` is :const:`2.50`. The trailing zero is kept to indicate significance.
+ This is the customary presentation for monetary applications. For
+ multiplication, the "schoolbook" approach uses all the figures in the
+ multiplicands. For instance, ``1.3 * 1.2`` gives :const:`1.56` while ``1.30 *
+ 1.20`` gives :const:`1.5600`.
+
+* Unlike hardware based binary floating point, the decimal module has a user
+ alterable precision (defaulting to 28 places) which can be as large as needed for
+ a given problem:
+
+ >>> from decimal import *
+ >>> getcontext().prec = 6
+ >>> Decimal(1) / Decimal(7)
+ Decimal('0.142857')
+ >>> getcontext().prec = 28
+ >>> Decimal(1) / Decimal(7)
+ Decimal('0.1428571428571428571428571429')
+
+* Both binary and decimal floating point are implemented in terms of published
+ standards. While the built-in float type exposes only a modest portion of its
+ capabilities, the decimal module exposes all required parts of the standard.
+ When needed, the programmer has full control over rounding and signal handling.
+ This includes an option to enforce exact arithmetic by using exceptions
+ to block any inexact operations.
+
+* The decimal module was designed to support "without prejudice, both exact
+ unrounded decimal arithmetic (sometimes called fixed-point arithmetic)
+ and rounded floating-point arithmetic." -- excerpt from the decimal
+ arithmetic specification.
+
+The module design is centered around three concepts: the decimal number, the
+context for arithmetic, and signals.
+
+A decimal number is immutable. It has a sign, coefficient digits, and an
+exponent. To preserve significance, the coefficient digits do not truncate
+trailing zeros. Decimals also include special values such as
+:const:`Infinity`, :const:`-Infinity`, and :const:`NaN`. The standard also
+differentiates :const:`-0` from :const:`+0`.
+
+The context for arithmetic is an environment specifying precision, rounding
+rules, limits on exponents, flags indicating the results of operations, and trap
+enablers which determine whether signals are treated as exceptions. Rounding
+options include :const:`ROUND_CEILING`, :const:`ROUND_DOWN`,
+:const:`ROUND_FLOOR`, :const:`ROUND_HALF_DOWN`, :const:`ROUND_HALF_EVEN`,
+:const:`ROUND_HALF_UP`, :const:`ROUND_UP`, and :const:`ROUND_05UP`.
+
+Signals are groups of exceptional conditions arising during the course of
+computation. Depending on the needs of the application, signals may be ignored,
+considered as informational, or treated as exceptions. The signals in the
+decimal module are: :const:`Clamped`, :const:`InvalidOperation`,
+:const:`DivisionByZero`, :const:`Inexact`, :const:`Rounded`, :const:`Subnormal`,
+:const:`Overflow`, and :const:`Underflow`.
+
+For each signal there is a flag and a trap enabler. When a signal is
+encountered, its flag is set to one, then, if the trap enabler is
+set to one, an exception is raised. Flags are sticky, so the user needs to
+reset them before monitoring a calculation.

+
+Quick-start Tutorial
+--------------------
+
+The usual start to using decimals is importing the module, viewing the current
+context with :func:`getcontext` and, if necessary, setting new values for
+precision, rounding, or enabled traps::
+
+ >>> from decimal import *
+ >>> getcontext()
+ Context(prec=28, rounding=ROUND_HALF_EVEN, Emin=-999999999, Emax=999999999,
+ capitals=1, flags=[], traps=[Overflow, DivisionByZero,
+ InvalidOperation])
+
+ >>> getcontext().prec = 7 # Set a new precision
+
+Decimal instances can be constructed from integers, strings, floats, or tuples.
+Construction from an integer or a float performs an exact conversion of the
+value of that integer or float. Decimal numbers include special values such as
+:const:`NaN` which stands for "Not a number", positive and negative
+:const:`Infinity`, and :const:`-0`.
+
+ >>> getcontext().prec = 28
+ >>> Decimal(10)
+ Decimal('10')
+ >>> Decimal('3.14')
+ Decimal('3.14')
+ >>> Decimal(3.14)
+ Decimal('3.140000000000000124344978758017532527446746826171875')
+ >>> Decimal((0, (3, 1, 4), -2))
+ Decimal('3.14')
+ >>> Decimal(str(2.0 ** 0.5))
+ Decimal('1.41421356237')
+ >>> Decimal(2) ** Decimal('0.5')
+ Decimal('1.414213562373095048801688724')
+ >>> Decimal('NaN')
+ Decimal('NaN')
+ >>> Decimal('-Infinity')
+ Decimal('-Infinity')
+
+The significance of a new Decimal is determined solely by the number of digits
+input. Context precision and rounding only come into play during arithmetic
+operations.
+
+.. doctest:: newcontext
+
+ >>> getcontext().prec = 6
+ >>> Decimal('3.0')
+ Decimal('3.0')
+ >>> Decimal('3.1415926535')
+ Decimal('3.1415926535')
+ >>> Decimal('3.1415926535') + Decimal('2.7182818285')
+ Decimal('5.85987')
+ >>> getcontext().rounding = ROUND_UP
+ >>> Decimal('3.1415926535') + Decimal('2.7182818285')
+ Decimal('5.85988')
+
+Decimals interact well with much of the rest of Python. Here is a small decimal
+floating point flying circus:
+
+.. doctest::
+ :options: +NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE
+
+ >>> data = map(Decimal, '1.34 1.87 3.45 2.35 1.00 0.03 9.25'.split())
+ >>> max(data)
+ Decimal('9.25')
+ >>> min(data)
+ Decimal('0.03')
+ >>> sorted(data)
+ [Decimal('0.03'), Decimal('1.00'), Decimal('1.34'), Decimal('1.87'),
+ Decimal('2.35'), Decimal('3.45'), Decimal('9.25')]
+ >>> sum(data)
+ Decimal('19.29')
+ >>> a,b,c = data[:3]
+ >>> str(a)
+ '1.34'
+ >>> float(a)
+ 1.34
+ >>> round(a, 1) # round() first converts to binary floating point
+ 1.3
+ >>> int(a)
+ 1
+ >>> a * 5
+ Decimal('6.70')
+ >>> a * b
+ Decimal('2.5058')
+ >>> c % a
+ Decimal('0.77')
+
+And some mathematical functions are also available to Decimal:
+
+ >>> getcontext().prec = 28
+ >>> Decimal(2).sqrt()
+ Decimal('1.414213562373095048801688724')
+ >>> Decimal(1).exp()
+ Decimal('2.718281828459045235360287471')
+ >>> Decimal('10').ln()
+ Decimal('2.302585092994045684017991455')
+ >>> Decimal('10').log10()
+ Decimal('1')
+
+The :meth:`quantize` method rounds a number to a fixed exponent. This method is
+useful for monetary applications that often round results to a fixed number of
+places:
+
+ >>> Decimal('7.325').quantize(Decimal('.01'), rounding=ROUND_DOWN)
+ Decimal('7.32')
+ >>> Decimal('7.325').quantize(Decimal('1.'), rounding=ROUND_UP)
+ Decimal('8')
+
+As shown above, the :func:`getcontext` function accesses the current context and
+allows the settings to be changed. This approach meets the needs of most
+applications.
+
+For more advanced work, it may be useful to create alternate contexts using the
+Context() constructor. To make an alternate active, use the :func:`setcontext`
+function.
+
+In accordance with the standard, the :mod:`Decimal` module provides two ready to
+use standard contexts, :const:`BasicContext` and :const:`ExtendedContext`. The
+former is especially useful for debugging because many of the traps are
+enabled:
+
+.. doctest:: newcontext
+ :options: +NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE
+
+ >>> myothercontext = Context(prec=60, rounding=ROUND_HALF_DOWN)
+ >>> setcontext(myothercontext)
+ >>> Decimal(1) / Decimal(7)
+ Decimal('0.142857142857142857142857142857142857142857142857142857142857')
+
+ >>> ExtendedContext
+ Context(prec=9, rounding=ROUND_HALF_EVEN, Emin=-999999999, Emax=999999999,
+ capitals=1, flags=[], traps=[])
+ >>> setcontext(ExtendedContext)
+ >>> Decimal(1) / Decimal(7)
+ Decimal('0.142857143')
+ >>> Decimal(42) / Decimal(0)
+ Decimal('Infinity')
+
+ >>> setcontext(BasicContext)
+ >>> Decimal(42) / Decimal(0)
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ File "<pyshell#143>", line 1, in -toplevel-
+ Decimal(42) / Decimal(0)
+ DivisionByZero: x / 0
+
+Contexts also have signal flags for monitoring exceptional conditions
+encountered during computations. The flags remain set until explicitly cleared,
+so it is best to clear the flags before each set of monitored computations by
+using the :meth:`clear_flags` method. ::
+
+ >>> setcontext(ExtendedContext)
+ >>> getcontext().clear_flags()
+ >>> Decimal(355) / Decimal(113)
+ Decimal('3.14159292')
+ >>> getcontext()
+ Context(prec=9, rounding=ROUND_HALF_EVEN, Emin=-999999999, Emax=999999999,
+ capitals=1, flags=[Rounded, Inexact], traps=[])
+
+The *flags* entry shows that the rational approximation to :const:`Pi` was
+rounded (digits beyond the context precision were thrown away) and that the
+result is inexact (some of the discarded digits were non-zero).
+
+Individual traps are set using the dictionary in the :attr:`traps` field of a
+context:
+
+.. doctest:: newcontext
+
+ >>> setcontext(ExtendedContext)
+ >>> Decimal(1) / Decimal(0)
+ Decimal('Infinity')
+ >>> getcontext().traps[DivisionByZero] = 1
+ >>> Decimal(1) / Decimal(0)
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ File "<pyshell#112>", line 1, in -toplevel-
+ Decimal(1) / Decimal(0)
+ DivisionByZero: x / 0
+
+Most programs adjust the current context only once, at the beginning of the
+program. And, in many applications, data is converted to :class:`Decimal` with
+a single cast inside a loop. With context set and decimals created, the bulk of
+the program manipulates the data no differently than with other Python numeric
+types.
+
+.. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+
+
+.. _decimal-decimal:
+
+Decimal objects
+---------------
+
+
+.. class:: Decimal([value [, context]])
+
+ Construct a new :class:`Decimal` object based from *value*.
+
+ *value* can be an integer, string, tuple, :class:`float`, or another :class:`Decimal`
+ object. If no *value* is given, returns ``Decimal('0')``. If *value* is a
+ string, it should conform to the decimal numeric string syntax after leading
+ and trailing whitespace characters are removed::
+
+ sign ::= '+' | '-'
+ digit ::= '0' | '1' | '2' | '3' | '4' | '5' | '6' | '7' | '8' | '9'
+ indicator ::= 'e' | 'E'
+ digits ::= digit [digit]...
+ decimal-part ::= digits '.' [digits] | ['.'] digits
+ exponent-part ::= indicator [sign] digits
+ infinity ::= 'Infinity' | 'Inf'
+ nan ::= 'NaN' [digits] | 'sNaN' [digits]
+ numeric-value ::= decimal-part [exponent-part] | infinity
+ numeric-string ::= [sign] numeric-value | [sign] nan
+
+ If *value* is a unicode string then other Unicode decimal digits
+ are also permitted where ``digit`` appears above. These include
+ decimal digits from various other alphabets (for example,
+ Arabic-Indic and Devanāgarī digits) along with the fullwidth digits
+ ``u'\uff10'`` through ``u'\uff19'``.
+
+ If *value* is a :class:`tuple`, it should have three components, a sign
+ (:const:`0` for positive or :const:`1` for negative), a :class:`tuple` of
+ digits, and an integer exponent. For example, ``Decimal((0, (1, 4, 1, 4), -3))``
+ returns ``Decimal('1.414')``.
+
+ If *value* is a :class:`float`, the binary floating point value is losslessly
+ converted to its exact decimal equivalent. This conversion can often require
+ 53 or more digits of precision. For example, ``Decimal(float('1.1'))``
+ converts to
+ ``Decimal('1.100000000000000088817841970012523233890533447265625')``.
+
+ The *context* precision does not affect how many digits are stored. That is
+ determined exclusively by the number of digits in *value*. For example,
+ ``Decimal('3.00000')`` records all five zeros even if the context precision is
+ only three.
+
+ The purpose of the *context* argument is determining what to do if *value* is a
+ malformed string. If the context traps :const:`InvalidOperation`, an exception
+ is raised; otherwise, the constructor returns a new Decimal with the value of
+ :const:`NaN`.
+
+ Once constructed, :class:`Decimal` objects are immutable.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ leading and trailing whitespace characters are permitted when
+ creating a Decimal instance from a string.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ The argument to the constructor is now permitted to be a :class:`float` instance.
+
+ Decimal floating point objects share many properties with the other built-in
+ numeric types such as :class:`float` and :class:`int`. All of the usual math
+ operations and special methods apply. Likewise, decimal objects can be
+ copied, pickled, printed, used as dictionary keys, used as set elements,
+ compared, sorted, and coerced to another type (such as :class:`float` or
+ :class:`long`).
+
+ There are some small differences between arithmetic on Decimal objects and
+ arithmetic on integers and floats. When the remainder operator ``%`` is
+ applied to Decimal objects, the sign of the result is the sign of the
+ *dividend* rather than the sign of the divisor::
+
+ >>> (-7) % 4
+ 1
+ >>> Decimal(-7) % Decimal(4)
+ Decimal('-3')
+
+ The integer division operator ``//`` behaves analogously, returning the
+ integer part of the true quotient (truncating towards zero) rather than its
+ floor, so as to preserve the usual identity ``x == (x // y) * y + x % y``::
+
+ >>> -7 // 4
+ -2
+ >>> Decimal(-7) // Decimal(4)
+ Decimal('-1')
+
+ The ``%`` and ``//`` operators implement the ``remainder`` and
+ ``divide-integer`` operations (respectively) as described in the
+ specification.
+
+ Decimal objects cannot generally be combined with floats in
+ arithmetic operations: an attempt to add a :class:`Decimal` to a
+ :class:`float`, for example, will raise a :exc:`TypeError`.
+ There's one exception to this rule: it's possible to use Python's
+ comparison operators to compare a :class:`float` instance ``x``
+ with a :class:`Decimal` instance ``y``. Without this exception,
+ comparisons between :class:`Decimal` and :class:`float` instances
+ would follow the general rules for comparing objects of different
+ types described in the :ref:`expressions` section of the reference
+ manual, leading to confusing results.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ A comparison between a :class:`float` instance ``x`` and a
+ :class:`Decimal` instance ``y`` now returns a result based on
+ the values of ``x`` and ``y``. In earlier versions ``x < y``
+ returned the same (arbitrary) result for any :class:`Decimal`
+ instance ``x`` and any :class:`float` instance ``y``.
+
+ In addition to the standard numeric properties, decimal floating point
+ objects also have a number of specialized methods:
+
+
+ .. method:: adjusted()
+
+ Return the adjusted exponent after shifting out the coefficient's
+ rightmost digits until only the lead digit remains:
+ ``Decimal('321e+5').adjusted()`` returns seven. Used for determining the
+ position of the most significant digit with respect to the decimal point.
+
+
+ .. method:: as_tuple()
+
+ Return a :term:`named tuple` representation of the number:
+ ``DecimalTuple(sign, digits, exponent)``.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ Use a named tuple.
+
+
+ .. method:: canonical()
+
+ Return the canonical encoding of the argument. Currently, the encoding of
+ a :class:`Decimal` instance is always canonical, so this operation returns
+ its argument unchanged.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. method:: compare(other[, context])
+
+ Compare the values of two Decimal instances. This operation behaves in
+ the same way as the usual comparison method :meth:`__cmp__`, except that
+ :meth:`compare` returns a Decimal instance rather than an integer, and if
+ either operand is a NaN then the result is a NaN::
+
+ a or b is a NaN ==> Decimal('NaN')
+ a < b ==> Decimal('-1')
+ a == b ==> Decimal('0')
+ a > b ==> Decimal('1')
+
+ .. method:: compare_signal(other[, context])
+
+ This operation is identical to the :meth:`compare` method, except that all
+ NaNs signal. That is, if neither operand is a signaling NaN then any
+ quiet NaN operand is treated as though it were a signaling NaN.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. method:: compare_total(other)
+
+ Compare two operands using their abstract representation rather than their
+ numerical value. Similar to the :meth:`compare` method, but the result
+ gives a total ordering on :class:`Decimal` instances. Two
+ :class:`Decimal` instances with the same numeric value but different
+ representations compare unequal in this ordering:
+
+ >>> Decimal('12.0').compare_total(Decimal('12'))
+ Decimal('-1')
+
+ Quiet and signaling NaNs are also included in the total ordering. The
+ result of this function is ``Decimal('0')`` if both operands have the same
+ representation, ``Decimal('-1')`` if the first operand is lower in the
+ total order than the second, and ``Decimal('1')`` if the first operand is
+ higher in the total order than the second operand. See the specification
+ for details of the total order.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. method:: compare_total_mag(other)
+
+ Compare two operands using their abstract representation rather than their
+ value as in :meth:`compare_total`, but ignoring the sign of each operand.
+ ``x.compare_total_mag(y)`` is equivalent to
+ ``x.copy_abs().compare_total(y.copy_abs())``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. method:: conjugate()
+
+ Just returns self, this method is only to comply with the Decimal
+ Specification.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. method:: copy_abs()
+
+ Return the absolute value of the argument. This operation is unaffected
+ by the context and is quiet: no flags are changed and no rounding is
+ performed.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. method:: copy_negate()
+
+ Return the negation of the argument. This operation is unaffected by the
+ context and is quiet: no flags are changed and no rounding is performed.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. method:: copy_sign(other)
+
+ Return a copy of the first operand with the sign set to be the same as the
+ sign of the second operand. For example:
+
+ >>> Decimal('2.3').copy_sign(Decimal('-1.5'))
+ Decimal('-2.3')
+
+ This operation is unaffected by the context and is quiet: no flags are
+ changed and no rounding is performed.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. method:: exp([context])
+
+ Return the value of the (natural) exponential function ``e**x`` at the
+ given number. The result is correctly rounded using the
+ :const:`ROUND_HALF_EVEN` rounding mode.
+
+ >>> Decimal(1).exp()
+ Decimal('2.718281828459045235360287471')
+ >>> Decimal(321).exp()
+ Decimal('2.561702493119680037517373933E+139')
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. method:: from_float(f)
+
+ Classmethod that converts a float to a decimal number, exactly.
+
+ Note `Decimal.from_float(0.1)` is not the same as `Decimal('0.1')`.
+ Since 0.1 is not exactly representable in binary floating point, the
+ value is stored as the nearest representable value which is
+ `0x1.999999999999ap-4`. That equivalent value in decimal is
+ `0.1000000000000000055511151231257827021181583404541015625`.
+
+ .. note:: From Python 2.7 onwards, a :class:`Decimal` instance
+ can also be constructed directly from a :class:`float`.
+
+ .. doctest::
+
+ >>> Decimal.from_float(0.1)
+ Decimal('0.1000000000000000055511151231257827021181583404541015625')
+ >>> Decimal.from_float(float('nan'))
+ Decimal('NaN')
+ >>> Decimal.from_float(float('inf'))
+ Decimal('Infinity')
+ >>> Decimal.from_float(float('-inf'))
+ Decimal('-Infinity')
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+ .. method:: fma(other, third[, context])
+
+ Fused multiply-add. Return self*other+third with no rounding of the
+ intermediate product self*other.
+
+ >>> Decimal(2).fma(3, 5)
+ Decimal('11')
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. method:: is_canonical()
+
+ Return :const:`True` if the argument is canonical and :const:`False`
+ otherwise. Currently, a :class:`Decimal` instance is always canonical, so
+ this operation always returns :const:`True`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. method:: is_finite()
+
+ Return :const:`True` if the argument is a finite number, and
+ :const:`False` if the argument is an infinity or a NaN.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. method:: is_infinite()
+
+ Return :const:`True` if the argument is either positive or negative

+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. method:: is_normal()
+
+ Return :const:`True` if the argument is a *normal* finite non-zero
+ number with an adjusted exponent greater than or equal to *Emin*.
+ Return :const:`False` if the argument is zero, subnormal, infinite or a
+ NaN. Note, the term *normal* is used here in a different sense with
+ the :meth:`normalize` method which is used to create canonical values.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. method:: is_qnan()
+
+ Return :const:`True` if the argument is a quiet NaN, and
+ :const:`False` otherwise.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6

+
+ Return :const:`True` if the argument has a negative sign and

+
+ .. method:: is_snan()
+
+ Return :const:`True` if the argument is a signaling NaN and :const:`False`
+ otherwise.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. method:: is_subnormal()
+
+ Return :const:`True` if the argument is subnormal, and :const:`False`
+ otherwise. A number is subnormal is if it is nonzero, finite, and has an
+ adjusted exponent less than *Emin*.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. method:: is_zero()
+
+ Return :const:`True` if the argument is a (positive or negative) zero and

+

+ Return the natural (base e) logarithm of the operand. The result is
+ correctly rounded using the :const:`ROUND_HALF_EVEN` rounding mode.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. method:: log10([context])
+
+ Return the base ten logarithm of the operand. The result is correctly

+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. method:: logb([context])
+
+ For a nonzero number, return the adjusted exponent of its operand as a
+ :class:`Decimal` instance. If the operand is a zero then
+ ``Decimal('-Infinity')`` is returned and the :const:`DivisionByZero` flag
+ is raised. If the operand is an infinity then ``Decimal('Infinity')`` is
+ returned.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. method:: logical_and(other[, context])
+
+ :meth:`logical_and` is a logical operation which takes two *logical

+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. method:: logical_or(other[, context])
+
+ :meth:`logical_or` is a logical operation which takes two *logical

+ digit-wise ``or`` of the two operands.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. method:: logical_xor(other[, context])
+
+ :meth:`logical_xor` is a logical operation which takes two *logical
+ operands* (see :ref:`logical_operands_label`). The result is the
+ digit-wise exclusive or of the two operands.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. method:: max(other[, context])
+
+ Like ``max(self, other)`` except that the context rounding rule is applied
+ before returning and that :const:`NaN` values are either signaled or
+ ignored (depending on the context and whether they are signaling or
+ quiet).
+
+ .. method:: max_mag(other[, context])
+
+ Similar to the :meth:`.max` method, but the comparison is done using the
+ absolute values of the operands.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. method:: min(other[, context])
+
+ Like ``min(self, other)`` except that the context rounding rule is applied
+ before returning and that :const:`NaN` values are either signaled or
+ ignored (depending on the context and whether they are signaling or
+ quiet).
+
+ .. method:: min_mag(other[, context])
+
+ Similar to the :meth:`.min` method, but the comparison is done using the
+ absolute values of the operands.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. method:: next_minus([context])
+
+ Return the largest number representable in the given context (or in the
+ current thread's context if no context is given) that is smaller than the
+ given operand.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. method:: next_plus([context])
+
+ Return the smallest number representable in the given context (or in the

+ given operand.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. method:: next_toward(other[, context])
+
+ If the two operands are unequal, return the number closest to the first
+ operand in the direction of the second operand. If both operands are
+ numerically equal, return a copy of the first operand with the sign set to
+ be the same as the sign of the second operand.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. method:: normalize([context])
+
+ Normalize the number by stripping the rightmost trailing zeros and
+ converting any result equal to :const:`Decimal('0')` to
+ :const:`Decimal('0e0')`. Used for producing canonical values for attributes
+ of an equivalence class. For example, ``Decimal('32.100')`` and
+ ``Decimal('0.321000e+2')`` both normalize to the equivalent value
+ ``Decimal('32.1')``.
+
+ .. method:: number_class([context])
+
+ Return a string describing the *class* of the operand. The returned value
+ is one of the following ten strings.
+
+ * ``"-Infinity"``, indicating that the operand is negative infinity.
+ * ``"-Normal"``, indicating that the operand is a negative normal number.
+ * ``"-Subnormal"``, indicating that the operand is negative and subnormal.
+ * ``"-Zero"``, indicating that the operand is a negative zero.
+ * ``"+Zero"``, indicating that the operand is a positive zero.
+ * ``"+Subnormal"``, indicating that the operand is positive and subnormal.
+ * ``"+Normal"``, indicating that the operand is a positive normal number.
+ * ``"+Infinity"``, indicating that the operand is positive infinity.
+ * ``"NaN"``, indicating that the operand is a quiet NaN (Not a Number).
+ * ``"sNaN"``, indicating that the operand is a signaling NaN.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. method:: quantize(exp[, rounding[, context[, watchexp]]])
+
+ Return a value equal to the first operand after rounding and having the
+ exponent of the second operand.
+
+ >>> Decimal('1.41421356').quantize(Decimal('1.000'))
+ Decimal('1.414')
+
+ Unlike other operations, if the length of the coefficient after the
+ quantize operation would be greater than precision, then an
+ :const:`InvalidOperation` is signaled. This guarantees that, unless there
+ is an error condition, the quantized exponent is always equal to that of
+ the right-hand operand.
+
+ Also unlike other operations, quantize never signals Underflow, even if
+ the result is subnormal and inexact.
+
+ If the exponent of the second operand is larger than that of the first
+ then rounding may be necessary. In this case, the rounding mode is
+ determined by the ``rounding`` argument if given, else by the given
+ ``context`` argument; if neither argument is given the rounding mode of
+ the current thread's context is used.
+
+ If *watchexp* is set (default), then an error is returned whenever the
+ resulting exponent is greater than :attr:`Emax` or less than
+ :attr:`Etiny`.
+
+ .. method:: radix()
+
+ Return ``Decimal(10)``, the radix (base) in which the :class:`Decimal`
+ class does all its arithmetic. Included for compatibility with the
+ specification.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. method:: remainder_near(other[, context])
+
+ Return the remainder from dividing *self* by *other*. This differs from
+ ``self % other`` in that the sign of the remainder is chosen so as to
+ minimize its absolute value. More precisely, the return value is
+ ``self - n * other`` where ``n`` is the integer nearest to the exact
+ value of ``self / other``, and if two integers are equally near then the
+ even one is chosen.
+
+ If the result is zero then its sign will be the sign of *self*.
+
+ >>> Decimal(18).remainder_near(Decimal(10))
+ Decimal('-2')
+ >>> Decimal(25).remainder_near(Decimal(10))
+ Decimal('5')
+ >>> Decimal(35).remainder_near(Decimal(10))
+ Decimal('-5')
+
+ .. method:: rotate(other[, context])
+
+ Return the result of rotating the digits of the first operand by an amount
+ specified by the second operand. The second operand must be an integer in
+ the range -precision through precision. The absolute value of the second
+ operand gives the number of places to rotate. If the second operand is
+ positive then rotation is to the left; otherwise rotation is to the right.
+ The coefficient of the first operand is padded on the left with zeros to
+ length precision if necessary. The sign and exponent of the first operand
+ are unchanged.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. method:: same_quantum(other[, context])
+
+ Test whether self and other have the same exponent or whether both are
+ :const:`NaN`.
+
+ .. method:: scaleb(other[, context])
+
+ Return the first operand with exponent adjusted by the second.
+ Equivalently, return the first operand multiplied by ``10**other``. The
+ second operand must be an integer.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. method:: shift(other[, context])
+
+ Return the result of shifting the digits of the first operand by an amount
+ specified by the second operand. The second operand must be an integer in
+ the range -precision through precision. The absolute value of the second
+ operand gives the number of places to shift. If the second operand is
+ positive then the shift is to the left; otherwise the shift is to the
+ right. Digits shifted into the coefficient are zeros. The sign and
+ exponent of the first operand are unchanged.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. method:: sqrt([context])
+
+ Return the square root of the argument to full precision.
+
+
+ .. method:: to_eng_string([context])
+
+ Convert to an engineering-type string.
+
+ Engineering notation has an exponent which is a multiple of 3, so there
+ are up to 3 digits left of the decimal place. For example, converts
+ ``Decimal('123E+1')`` to ``Decimal('1.23E+3')``
+
+ .. method:: to_integral([rounding[, context]])
+
+ Identical to the :meth:`to_integral_value` method. The ``to_integral``
+ name has been kept for compatibility with older versions.
+
+ .. method:: to_integral_exact([rounding[, context]])
+
+ Round to the nearest integer, signaling :const:`Inexact` or
+ :const:`Rounded` as appropriate if rounding occurs. The rounding mode is
+ determined by the ``rounding`` parameter if given, else by the given
+ ``context``. If neither parameter is given then the rounding mode of the
+ current context is used.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. method:: to_integral_value([rounding[, context]])
+
+ Round to the nearest integer without signaling :const:`Inexact` or
+ :const:`Rounded`. If given, applies *rounding*; otherwise, uses the
+ rounding method in either the supplied *context* or the current context.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ renamed from ``to_integral`` to ``to_integral_value``. The old name
+ remains valid for compatibility.
+
+.. _logical_operands_label:
+
+Logical operands
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The :meth:`logical_and`, :meth:`logical_invert`, :meth:`logical_or`,
+and :meth:`logical_xor` methods expect their arguments to be *logical
+operands*. A *logical operand* is a :class:`Decimal` instance whose
+exponent and sign are both zero, and whose digits are all either
+:const:`0` or :const:`1`.
+

+
+
+.. _decimal-context:
+
+Context objects
+---------------
+
+Contexts are environments for arithmetic operations. They govern precision, set
+rules for rounding, determine which signals are treated as exceptions, and limit
+the range for exponents.
+
+Each thread has its own current context which is accessed or changed using the
+:func:`getcontext` and :func:`setcontext` functions:
+
+
+.. function:: getcontext()
+
+ Return the current context for the active thread.
+
+
+.. function:: setcontext(c)
+
+ Set the current context for the active thread to *c*.
+
+Beginning with Python 2.5, you can also use the :keyword:`with` statement and
+the :func:`localcontext` function to temporarily change the active context.
+
+
+.. function:: localcontext([c])
+
+ Return a context manager that will set the current context for the active thread
+ to a copy of *c* on entry to the with-statement and restore the previous context
+ when exiting the with-statement. If no context is specified, a copy of the
+ current context is used.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+ For example, the following code sets the current decimal precision to 42 places,
+ performs a calculation, and then automatically restores the previous context::
+
+ from decimal import localcontext
+
+ with localcontext() as ctx:
+ ctx.prec = 42 # Perform a high precision calculation
+ s = calculate_something()
+ s = +s # Round the final result back to the default precision
+
+ with localcontext(BasicContext): # temporarily use the BasicContext
+ print Decimal(1) / Decimal(7)
+ print Decimal(355) / Decimal(113)
+
+New contexts can also be created using the :class:`Context` constructor
+described below. In addition, the module provides three pre-made contexts:
+
+
+.. class:: BasicContext
+
+ This is a standard context defined by the General Decimal Arithmetic
+ Specification. Precision is set to nine. Rounding is set to
+ :const:`ROUND_HALF_UP`. All flags are cleared. All traps are enabled (treated
+ as exceptions) except :const:`Inexact`, :const:`Rounded`, and
+ :const:`Subnormal`.
+
+ Because many of the traps are enabled, this context is useful for debugging.
+
+
+.. class:: ExtendedContext
+
+ This is a standard context defined by the General Decimal Arithmetic
+ Specification. Precision is set to nine. Rounding is set to
+ :const:`ROUND_HALF_EVEN`. All flags are cleared. No traps are enabled (so that
+ exceptions are not raised during computations).
+
+ Because the traps are disabled, this context is useful for applications that
+ prefer to have result value of :const:`NaN` or :const:`Infinity` instead of
+ raising exceptions. This allows an application to complete a run in the
+ presence of conditions that would otherwise halt the program.
+
+
+.. class:: DefaultContext
+
+ This context is used by the :class:`Context` constructor as a prototype for new
+ contexts. Changing a field (such a precision) has the effect of changing the
+ default for new contexts created by the :class:`Context` constructor.
+
+ This context is most useful in multi-threaded environments. Changing one of the
+ fields before threads are started has the effect of setting system-wide
+ defaults. Changing the fields after threads have started is not recommended as
+ it would require thread synchronization to prevent race conditions.
+
+ In single threaded environments, it is preferable to not use this context at
+ all. Instead, simply create contexts explicitly as described below.
+
+ The default values are precision=28, rounding=ROUND_HALF_EVEN, and enabled traps
+ for Overflow, InvalidOperation, and DivisionByZero.
+
+In addition to the three supplied contexts, new contexts can be created with the
+:class:`Context` constructor.
+
+
+.. class:: Context(prec=None, rounding=None, traps=None, flags=None, Emin=None, Emax=None, capitals=1)
+
+ Creates a new context. If a field is not specified or is :const:`None`, the
+ default values are copied from the :const:`DefaultContext`. If the *flags*
+ field is not specified or is :const:`None`, all flags are cleared.
+
+ The *prec* field is a positive integer that sets the precision for arithmetic
+ operations in the context.
+
+ The *rounding* option is one of:
+
+ * :const:`ROUND_CEILING` (towards :const:`Infinity`),
+ * :const:`ROUND_DOWN` (towards zero),
+ * :const:`ROUND_FLOOR` (towards :const:`-Infinity`),
+ * :const:`ROUND_HALF_DOWN` (to nearest with ties going towards zero),
+ * :const:`ROUND_HALF_EVEN` (to nearest with ties going to nearest even integer),
+ * :const:`ROUND_HALF_UP` (to nearest with ties going away from zero), or
+ * :const:`ROUND_UP` (away from zero).
+ * :const:`ROUND_05UP` (away from zero if last digit after rounding towards zero
+ would have been 0 or 5; otherwise towards zero)
+
+ The *traps* and *flags* fields list any signals to be set. Generally, new
+ contexts should only set traps and leave the flags clear.
+
+ The *Emin* and *Emax* fields are integers specifying the outer limits allowable
+ for exponents.
+
+ The *capitals* field is either :const:`0` or :const:`1` (the default). If set to
+ :const:`1`, exponents are printed with a capital :const:`E`; otherwise, a
+ lowercase :const:`e` is used: :const:`Decimal('6.02e+23')`.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ The :const:`ROUND_05UP` rounding mode was added.
+
+ The :class:`Context` class defines several general purpose methods as well as
+ a large number of methods for doing arithmetic directly in a given context.
+ In addition, for each of the :class:`Decimal` methods described above (with
+ the exception of the :meth:`adjusted` and :meth:`as_tuple` methods) there is
+ a corresponding :class:`Context` method. For example, for a :class:`Context`
+ instance ``C`` and :class:`Decimal` instance ``x``, ``C.exp(x)`` is
+ equivalent to ``x.exp(context=C)``. Each :class:`Context` method accepts a
+ Python integer (an instance of :class:`int` or :class:`long`) anywhere that a
+ Decimal instance is accepted.
+
+
+ .. method:: clear_flags()
+
+ Resets all of the flags to :const:`0`.
+
+ .. method:: copy()
+
+ Return a duplicate of the context.
+
+ .. method:: copy_decimal(num)
+
+ Return a copy of the Decimal instance num.
+
+ .. method:: create_decimal(num)
+
+ Creates a new Decimal instance from *num* but using *self* as
+ context. Unlike the :class:`Decimal` constructor, the context precision,
+ rounding method, flags, and traps are applied to the conversion.
+
+ This is useful because constants are often given to a greater precision
+ than is needed by the application. Another benefit is that rounding
+ immediately eliminates unintended effects from digits beyond the current
+ precision. In the following example, using unrounded inputs means that
+ adding zero to a sum can change the result:
+
+ .. doctest:: newcontext
+
+ >>> getcontext().prec = 3
+ >>> Decimal('3.4445') + Decimal('1.0023')
+ Decimal('4.45')
+ >>> Decimal('3.4445') + Decimal(0) + Decimal('1.0023')
+ Decimal('4.44')
+
+ This method implements the to-number operation of the IBM specification.
+ If the argument is a string, no leading or trailing whitespace is
+ permitted.
+
+ .. method:: create_decimal_from_float(f)
+
+ Creates a new Decimal instance from a float *f* but rounding using *self*
+ as the context. Unlike the :meth:`Decimal.from_float` class method,
+ the context precision, rounding method, flags, and traps are applied to
+ the conversion.
+
+ .. doctest::
+
+ >>> context = Context(prec=5, rounding=ROUND_DOWN)
+ >>> context.create_decimal_from_float(math.pi)

+
+Signals
+-------
+
+Signals represent conditions that arise during computation. Each corresponds to
+one context flag and one context trap enabler.
+
+The context flag is set whenever the condition is encountered. After the
+computation, flags may be checked for informational purposes (for instance, to
+determine whether a computation was exact). After checking the flags, be sure to
+clear all flags before starting the next computation.
+
+If the context's trap enabler is set for the signal, then the condition causes a
+Python exception to be raised. For example, if the :class:`DivisionByZero` trap
+is set, then a :exc:`DivisionByZero` exception is raised upon encountering the
+condition.
+
+
+.. class:: Clamped
+
+ Altered an exponent to fit representation constraints.
+
+ Typically, clamping occurs when an exponent falls outside the context's
+ :attr:`Emin` and :attr:`Emax` limits. If possible, the exponent is reduced to
+ fit by adding zeros to the coefficient.
+
+
+.. class:: DecimalException
+
+ Base class for other signals and a subclass of :exc:`ArithmeticError`.
+
+
+.. class:: DivisionByZero
+
+ Signals the division of a non-infinite number by zero.
+
+ Can occur with division, modulo division, or when raising a number to a negative
+ power. If this signal is not trapped, returns :const:`Infinity` or
+ :const:`-Infinity` with the sign determined by the inputs to the calculation.
+
+
+.. class:: Inexact
+
+ Indicates that rounding occurred and the result is not exact.
+
+ Signals when non-zero digits were discarded during rounding. The rounded result
+ is returned. The signal flag or trap is used to detect when results are
+ inexact.
+
+
+.. class:: InvalidOperation
+
+ An invalid operation was performed.
+
+ Indicates that an operation was requested that does not make sense. If not
+ trapped, returns :const:`NaN`. Possible causes include::
+
+ Infinity - Infinity
+ 0 * Infinity
+ Infinity / Infinity
+ x % 0
+ Infinity % x
+ x._rescale( non-integer )
+ sqrt(-x) and x > 0

+ x ** (non-integer)
+ x ** Infinity
+
+
+.. class:: Overflow
+
+ Numerical overflow.
+
+ Indicates the exponent is larger than :attr:`Emax` after rounding has
+ occurred. If not trapped, the result depends on the rounding mode, either
+ pulling inward to the largest representable finite number or rounding outward
+ to :const:`Infinity`. In either case, :class:`Inexact` and :class:`Rounded`
+ are also signaled.
+
+
+.. class:: Rounded
+
+ Rounding occurred though possibly no information was lost.
+
+ Signaled whenever rounding discards digits; even if those digits are zero

+
+Floating Point Notes
+--------------------
+
+
+Mitigating round-off error with increased precision
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The use of decimal floating point eliminates decimal representation error
+(making it possible to represent :const:`0.1` exactly); however, some operations
+can still incur round-off error when non-zero digits exceed the fixed precision.
+
+The effects of round-off error can be amplified by the addition or subtraction
+of nearly offsetting quantities resulting in loss of significance. Knuth
+provides two instructive examples where rounded floating point arithmetic with
+insufficient precision causes the breakdown of the associative and distributive
+properties of addition:
+
+.. doctest:: newcontext
+
+ # Examples from Seminumerical Algorithms, Section 4.2.2.
+ >>> from decimal import Decimal, getcontext
+ >>> getcontext().prec = 8
+
+ >>> u, v, w = Decimal(11111113), Decimal(-11111111), Decimal('7.51111111')
+ >>> (u + v) + w
+ Decimal('9.5111111')
+ >>> u + (v + w)
+ Decimal('10')
+
+ >>> u, v, w = Decimal(20000), Decimal(-6), Decimal('6.0000003')
+ >>> (u*v) + (u*w)
+ Decimal('0.01')
+ >>> u * (v+w)
+ Decimal('0.0060000')
+
+The :mod:`decimal` module makes it possible to restore the identities by
+expanding the precision sufficiently to avoid loss of significance:
+
+.. doctest:: newcontext
+
+ >>> getcontext().prec = 20
+ >>> u, v, w = Decimal(11111113), Decimal(-11111111), Decimal('7.51111111')
+ >>> (u + v) + w
+ Decimal('9.51111111')
+ >>> u + (v + w)
+ Decimal('9.51111111')
+ >>>
+ >>> u, v, w = Decimal(20000), Decimal(-6), Decimal('6.0000003')
+ >>> (u*v) + (u*w)
+ Decimal('0.0060000')
+ >>> u * (v+w)
+ Decimal('0.0060000')
+
+
+Special values
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The number system for the :mod:`decimal` module provides special values
+including :const:`NaN`, :const:`sNaN`, :const:`-Infinity`, :const:`Infinity`,
+and two zeros, :const:`+0` and :const:`-0`.
+
+Infinities can be constructed directly with: ``Decimal('Infinity')``. Also,
+they can arise from dividing by zero when the :exc:`DivisionByZero` signal is
+not trapped. Likewise, when the :exc:`Overflow` signal is not trapped, infinity
+can result from rounding beyond the limits of the largest representable number.
+
+The infinities are signed (affine) and can be used in arithmetic operations
+where they get treated as very large, indeterminate numbers. For instance,
+adding a constant to infinity gives another infinite result.
+
+Some operations are indeterminate and return :const:`NaN`, or if the
+:exc:`InvalidOperation` signal is trapped, raise an exception. For example,
+``0/0`` returns :const:`NaN` which means "not a number". This variety of
+:const:`NaN` is quiet and, once created, will flow through other computations
+always resulting in another :const:`NaN`. This behavior can be useful for a
+series of computations that occasionally have missing inputs --- it allows the
+calculation to proceed while flagging specific results as invalid.
+
+A variant is :const:`sNaN` which signals rather than remaining quiet after every
+operation. This is a useful return value when an invalid result needs to
+interrupt a calculation for special handling.
+
+The behavior of Python's comparison operators can be a little surprising where a
+:const:`NaN` is involved. A test for equality where one of the operands is a
+quiet or signaling :const:`NaN` always returns :const:`False` (even when doing
+``Decimal('NaN')==Decimal('NaN')``), while a test for inequality always returns
+:const:`True`. An attempt to compare two Decimals using any of the ``<``,
+``<=``, ``>`` or ``>=`` operators will raise the :exc:`InvalidOperation` signal
+if either operand is a :const:`NaN`, and return :const:`False` if this signal is
+not trapped. Note that the General Decimal Arithmetic specification does not
+specify the behavior of direct comparisons; these rules for comparisons
+involving a :const:`NaN` were taken from the IEEE 854 standard (see Table 3 in
+section 5.7). To ensure strict standards-compliance, use the :meth:`compare`
+and :meth:`compare-signal` methods instead.
+
+The signed zeros can result from calculations that underflow. They keep the sign
+that would have resulted if the calculation had been carried out to greater
+precision. Since their magnitude is zero, both positive and negative zeros are
+treated as equal and their sign is informational.
+
+In addition to the two signed zeros which are distinct yet equal, there are
+various representations of zero with differing precisions yet equivalent in
+value. This takes a bit of getting used to. For an eye accustomed to
+normalized floating point representations, it is not immediately obvious that
+the following calculation returns a value equal to zero:
+
+ >>> 1 / Decimal('Infinity')
+ Decimal('0E-1000000026')
+
+.. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+
+
+.. _decimal-threads:
+
+Working with threads
+--------------------
+
+The :func:`getcontext` function accesses a different :class:`Context` object for
+each thread. Having separate thread contexts means that threads may make
+changes (such as ``getcontext.prec=10``) without interfering with other threads.
+
+Likewise, the :func:`setcontext` function automatically assigns its target to
+the current thread.
+
+If :func:`setcontext` has not been called before :func:`getcontext`, then
+:func:`getcontext` will automatically create a new context for use in the
+current thread.
+
+The new context is copied from a prototype context called *DefaultContext*. To
+control the defaults so that each thread will use the same values throughout the
+application, directly modify the *DefaultContext* object. This should be done
+*before* any threads are started so that there won't be a race condition between
+threads calling :func:`getcontext`. For example::
+
+ # Set applicationwide defaults for all threads about to be launched
+ DefaultContext.prec = 12
+ DefaultContext.rounding = ROUND_DOWN
+ DefaultContext.traps = ExtendedContext.traps.copy()
+ DefaultContext.traps[InvalidOperation] = 1
+ setcontext(DefaultContext)
+
+ # Afterwards, the threads can be started
+ t1.start()
+ t2.start()

+
+Decimal FAQ
+-----------
+
+Q. It is cumbersome to type ``decimal.Decimal('1234.5')``. Is there a way to
+minimize typing when using the interactive interpreter?
+
+A. Some users abbreviate the constructor to just a single letter:
+
+ >>> D = decimal.Decimal
+ >>> D('1.23') + D('3.45')
+ Decimal('4.68')
+
+Q. In a fixed-point application with two decimal places, some inputs have many
+places and need to be rounded. Others are not supposed to have excess digits
+and need to be validated. What methods should be used?
+
+A. The :meth:`quantize` method rounds to a fixed number of decimal places. If
+the :const:`Inexact` trap is set, it is also useful for validation:
+
+ >>> TWOPLACES = Decimal(10) ** -2 # same as Decimal('0.01')
+
+ >>> # Round to two places
+ >>> Decimal('3.214').quantize(TWOPLACES)
+ Decimal('3.21')
+
+ >>> # Validate that a number does not exceed two places
+ >>> Decimal('3.21').quantize(TWOPLACES, context=Context(traps=[Inexact]))
+ Decimal('3.21')
+
+ >>> Decimal('3.214').quantize(TWOPLACES, context=Context(traps=[Inexact]))
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ ...
+ Inexact: None
+
+Q. Once I have valid two place inputs, how do I maintain that invariant
+throughout an application?
+
+A. Some operations like addition, subtraction, and multiplication by an integer
+will automatically preserve fixed point. Others operations, like division and
+non-integer multiplication, will change the number of decimal places and need to
+be followed-up with a :meth:`quantize` step:
+
+ >>> a = Decimal('102.72') # Initial fixed-point values
+ >>> b = Decimal('3.17')
+ >>> a + b # Addition preserves fixed-point
+ Decimal('105.89')
+ >>> a - b
+ Decimal('99.55')
+ >>> a * 42 # So does integer multiplication
+ Decimal('4314.24')
+ >>> (a * b).quantize(TWOPLACES) # Must quantize non-integer multiplication
+ Decimal('325.62')
+ >>> (b / a).quantize(TWOPLACES) # And quantize division
+ Decimal('0.03')
+
+In developing fixed-point applications, it is convenient to define functions
+to handle the :meth:`quantize` step:
+
+ >>> def mul(x, y, fp=TWOPLACES):
+ ... return (x * y).quantize(fp)
+ >>> def div(x, y, fp=TWOPLACES):
+ ... return (x / y).quantize(fp)
+
+ >>> mul(a, b) # Automatically preserve fixed-point
+ Decimal('325.62')
+ >>> div(b, a)
+ Decimal('0.03')
+
+Q. There are many ways to express the same value. The numbers :const:`200`,
+:const:`200.000`, :const:`2E2`, and :const:`.02E+4` all have the same value at
+various precisions. Is there a way to transform them to a single recognizable
+canonical value?
+
+A. The :meth:`normalize` method maps all equivalent values to a single
+representative:
+
+ >>> values = map(Decimal, '200 200.000 2E2 .02E+4'.split())
+ >>> [v.normalize() for v in values]
+ [Decimal('2E+2'), Decimal('2E+2'), Decimal('2E+2'), Decimal('2E+2')]
+
+Q. Some decimal values always print with exponential notation. Is there a way
+to get a non-exponential representation?
+
+A. For some values, exponential notation is the only way to express the number
+of significant places in the coefficient. For example, expressing
+:const:`5.0E+3` as :const:`5000` keeps the value constant but cannot show the
+original's two-place significance.
+
+If an application does not care about tracking significance, it is easy to
+remove the exponent and trailing zeros, losing significance, but keeping the
+value unchanged::
+
+ def remove_exponent(d):
+ '''Remove exponent and trailing zeros.
+
+ >>> remove_exponent(Decimal('5E+3'))
+ Decimal('5000')
+
+ '''
+ return d.quantize(Decimal(1)) if d == d.to_integral() else d.normalize()
+
+Q. Is there a way to convert a regular float to a :class:`Decimal`?
+
+A. Yes, any binary floating point number can be exactly expressed as a
+Decimal though an exact conversion may take more precision than intuition would
+suggest:
+
+.. doctest::
+
+ >>> Decimal(math.pi)
+ Decimal('3.141592653589793115997963468544185161590576171875')
+
+Q. Within a complex calculation, how can I make sure that I haven't gotten a
+spurious result because of insufficient precision or rounding anomalies.
+
+A. The decimal module makes it easy to test results. A best practice is to
+re-run calculations using greater precision and with various rounding modes.
+Widely differing results indicate insufficient precision, rounding mode issues,
+ill-conditioned inputs, or a numerically unstable algorithm.
+
+Q. I noticed that context precision is applied to the results of operations but
+not to the inputs. Is there anything to watch out for when mixing values of
+different precisions?
+
+A. Yes. The principle is that all values are considered to be exact and so is
+the arithmetic on those values. Only the results are rounded. The advantage
+for inputs is that "what you type is what you get". A disadvantage is that the
+results can look odd if you forget that the inputs haven't been rounded:
+
+.. doctest:: newcontext
+
+ >>> getcontext().prec = 3
+ >>> Decimal('3.104') + Decimal('2.104')
+ Decimal('5.21')
+ >>> Decimal('3.104') + Decimal('0.000') + Decimal('2.104')
+ Decimal('5.20')
+
+The solution is either to increase precision or to force rounding of inputs
+using the unary plus operation:
+
+.. doctest:: newcontext
+
+ >>> getcontext().prec = 3
+ >>> +Decimal('1.23456789') # unary plus triggers rounding
+ Decimal('1.23')
+
+Alternatively, inputs can be rounded upon creation using the
+:meth:`Context.create_decimal` method:
+
+ >>> Context(prec=5, rounding=ROUND_DOWN).create_decimal('1.2345678')
+ Decimal('1.2345')
+

+:mod:`difflib` --- Helpers for computing deltas
+===============================================
+
+.. module:: difflib
+ :synopsis: Helpers for computing differences between objects.
+.. moduleauthor:: Tim Peters <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Tim Peters <[email protected]>
+.. Markup by Fred L. Drake, Jr. <[email protected]>
+
+.. testsetup::
+
+ import sys
+ from difflib import *
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.1
+
+This module provides classes and functions for comparing sequences. It
+can be used for example, for comparing files, and can produce difference
+information in various formats, including HTML and context and unified
+diffs. For comparing directories and files, see also, the :mod:`filecmp` module.
+
+.. class:: SequenceMatcher
+
+ This is a flexible class for comparing pairs of sequences of any type, so long
+ as the sequence elements are :term:`hashable`. The basic algorithm predates, and is a
+ little fancier than, an algorithm published in the late 1980's by Ratcliff and
+ Obershelp under the hyperbolic name "gestalt pattern matching." The idea is to
+ find the longest contiguous matching subsequence that contains no "junk"
+ elements (the Ratcliff and Obershelp algorithm doesn't address junk). The same
+ idea is then applied recursively to the pieces of the sequences to the left and
+ to the right of the matching subsequence. This does not yield minimal edit
+ sequences, but does tend to yield matches that "look right" to people.
+
+ **Timing:** The basic Ratcliff-Obershelp algorithm is cubic time in the worst
+ case and quadratic time in the expected case. :class:`SequenceMatcher` is
+ quadratic time for the worst case and has expected-case behavior dependent in a
+ complicated way on how many elements the sequences have in common; best case
+ time is linear.
+
+ **Automatic junk heuristic:** :class:`SequenceMatcher` supports a heuristic that
+ automatically treats certain sequence items as junk. The heuristic counts how many
+ times each individual item appears in the sequence. If an item's duplicates (after
+ the first one) account for more than 1% of the sequence and the sequence is at least
+ 200 items long, this item is marked as "popular" and is treated as junk for
+ the purpose of sequence matching. This heuristic can be turned off by setting
+ the ``autojunk`` argument to ``False`` when creating the :class:`SequenceMatcher`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7.1
+ The *autojunk* parameter.
+
+.. class:: Differ
+
+ This is a class for comparing sequences of lines of text, and producing
+ human-readable differences or deltas. Differ uses :class:`SequenceMatcher`
+ both to compare sequences of lines, and to compare sequences of characters
+ within similar (near-matching) lines.
+
+ Each line of a :class:`Differ` delta begins with a two-letter code:
+
+ +----------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | Code | Meaning |
+ +==========+===========================================+
+ | ``'- '`` | line unique to sequence 1 |
+ +----------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'+ '`` | line unique to sequence 2 |
+ +----------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | ``' '`` | line common to both sequences |
+ +----------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'? '`` | line not present in either input sequence |
+ +----------+-------------------------------------------+
+
+ Lines beginning with '``?``' attempt to guide the eye to intraline differences,
+ and were not present in either input sequence. These lines can be confusing if
+ the sequences contain tab characters.
+
+
+.. class:: HtmlDiff
+
+ This class can be used to create an HTML table (or a complete HTML file
+ containing the table) showing a side by side, line by line comparison of text
+ with inter-line and intra-line change highlights. The table can be generated in
+ either full or contextual difference mode.
+
+ The constructor for this class is:
+
+
+ .. function:: __init__(tabsize=8, wrapcolumn=None, linejunk=None, charjunk=IS_CHARACTER_JUNK)
+
+ Initializes instance of :class:`HtmlDiff`.
+
+ *tabsize* is an optional keyword argument to specify tab stop spacing and
+ defaults to ``8``.
+
+ *wrapcolumn* is an optional keyword to specify column number where lines are
+ broken and wrapped, defaults to ``None`` where lines are not wrapped.
+
+ *linejunk* and *charjunk* are optional keyword arguments passed into ``ndiff()``
+ (used by :class:`HtmlDiff` to generate the side by side HTML differences). See
+ ``ndiff()`` documentation for argument default values and descriptions.
+
+ The following methods are public:
+
+
+ .. function:: make_file(fromlines, tolines [, fromdesc][, todesc][, context][, numlines])
+
+ Compares *fromlines* and *tolines* (lists of strings) and returns a string which
+ is a complete HTML file containing a table showing line by line differences with
+ inter-line and intra-line changes highlighted.
+
+ *fromdesc* and *todesc* are optional keyword arguments to specify from/to file
+ column header strings (both default to an empty string).
+
+ *context* and *numlines* are both optional keyword arguments. Set *context* to
+ ``True`` when contextual differences are to be shown, else the default is
+ ``False`` to show the full files. *numlines* defaults to ``5``. When *context*
+ is ``True`` *numlines* controls the number of context lines which surround the
+ difference highlights. When *context* is ``False`` *numlines* controls the
+ number of lines which are shown before a difference highlight when using the
+ "next" hyperlinks (setting to zero would cause the "next" hyperlinks to place
+ the next difference highlight at the top of the browser without any leading
+ context).
+
+
+ .. function:: make_table(fromlines, tolines [, fromdesc][, todesc][, context][, numlines])
+
+ Compares *fromlines* and *tolines* (lists of strings) and returns a string which
+ is a complete HTML table showing line by line differences with inter-line and
+ intra-line changes highlighted.
+
+ The arguments for this method are the same as those for the :meth:`make_file`
+ method.
+
+ :file:`Tools/scripts/diff.py` is a command-line front-end to this class and
+ contains a good example of its use.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+.. function:: context_diff(a, b[, fromfile][, tofile][, fromfiledate][, tofiledate][, n][, lineterm])
+
+ Compare *a* and *b* (lists of strings); return a delta (a :term:`generator`
+ generating the delta lines) in context diff format.
+
+ Context diffs are a compact way of showing just the lines that have changed plus
+ a few lines of context. The changes are shown in a before/after style. The
+ number of context lines is set by *n* which defaults to three.
+
+ By default, the diff control lines (those with ``***`` or ``---``) are created
+ with a trailing newline. This is helpful so that inputs created from
+ :func:`file.readlines` result in diffs that are suitable for use with
+ :func:`file.writelines` since both the inputs and outputs have trailing
+ newlines.
+
+ For inputs that do not have trailing newlines, set the *lineterm* argument to
+ ``""`` so that the output will be uniformly newline free.
+
+ The context diff format normally has a header for filenames and modification
+ times. Any or all of these may be specified using strings for *fromfile*,
+ *tofile*, *fromfiledate*, and *tofiledate*. The modification times are normally
+ expressed in the ISO 8601 format. If not specified, the
+ strings default to blanks.
+
+ >>> s1 = ['bacon\n', 'eggs\n', 'ham\n', 'guido\n']
+ >>> s2 = ['python\n', 'eggy\n', 'hamster\n', 'guido\n']
+ >>> for line in context_diff(s1, s2, fromfile='before.py', tofile='after.py'):

+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. function:: get_close_matches(word, possibilities[, n][, cutoff])
+
+ Return a list of the best "good enough" matches. *word* is a sequence for which
+ close matches are desired (typically a string), and *possibilities* is a list of
+ sequences against which to match *word* (typically a list of strings).
+
+ Optional argument *n* (default ``3``) is the maximum number of close matches to
+ return; *n* must be greater than ``0``.
+
+ Optional argument *cutoff* (default ``0.6``) is a float in the range [0, 1].
+ Possibilities that don't score at least that similar to *word* are ignored.
+
+ The best (no more than *n*) matches among the possibilities are returned in a
+ list, sorted by similarity score, most similar first.
+
+ >>> get_close_matches('appel', ['ape', 'apple', 'peach', 'puppy'])
+ ['apple', 'ape']
+ >>> import keyword
+ >>> get_close_matches('wheel', keyword.kwlist)
+ ['while']
+ >>> get_close_matches('apple', keyword.kwlist)
+ []
+ >>> get_close_matches('accept', keyword.kwlist)
+ ['except']
+
+
+.. function:: ndiff(a, b[, linejunk][, charjunk])
+
+ Compare *a* and *b* (lists of strings); return a :class:`Differ`\ -style
+ delta (a :term:`generator` generating the delta lines).
+
+ Optional keyword parameters *linejunk* and *charjunk* are for filter functions
+ (or ``None``):
+
+ *linejunk*: A function that accepts a single string argument, and returns true
+ if the string is junk, or false if not. The default is (``None``), starting with
+ Python 2.3. Before then, the default was the module-level function
+ :func:`IS_LINE_JUNK`, which filters out lines without visible characters, except
+ for at most one pound character (``'#'``). As of Python 2.3, the underlying
+ :class:`SequenceMatcher` class does a dynamic analysis of which lines are so
+ frequent as to constitute noise, and this usually works better than the pre-2.3
+ default.
+
+ *charjunk*: A function that accepts a character (a string of length 1), and
+ returns if the character is junk, or false if not. The default is module-level
+ function :func:`IS_CHARACTER_JUNK`, which filters out whitespace characters (a
+ blank or tab; note: bad idea to include newline in this!).
+
+ :file:`Tools/scripts/ndiff.py` is a command-line front-end to this function.
+
+ >>> diff = ndiff('one\ntwo\nthree\n'.splitlines(1),
+ ... 'ore\ntree\nemu\n'.splitlines(1))
+ >>> print ''.join(diff),
+ - one
+ ? ^
+ + ore
+ ? ^
+ - two
+ - three
+ ? -
+ + tree
+ + emu
+
+
+.. function:: restore(sequence, which)
+
+ Return one of the two sequences that generated a delta.
+
+ Given a *sequence* produced by :meth:`Differ.compare` or :func:`ndiff`, extract
+ lines originating from file 1 or 2 (parameter *which*), stripping off line
+ prefixes.
+
+ Example:
+
+ >>> diff = ndiff('one\ntwo\nthree\n'.splitlines(1),
+ ... 'ore\ntree\nemu\n'.splitlines(1))
+ >>> diff = list(diff) # materialize the generated delta into a list
+ >>> print ''.join(restore(diff, 1)),
+ one
+ two
+ three
+ >>> print ''.join(restore(diff, 2)),
+ ore
+ tree
+ emu
+
+
+.. function:: unified_diff(a, b[, fromfile][, tofile][, fromfiledate][, tofiledate][, n][, lineterm])
+
+ Compare *a* and *b* (lists of strings); return a delta (a :term:`generator`
+ generating the delta lines) in unified diff format.
+
+ Unified diffs are a compact way of showing just the lines that have changed plus
+ a few lines of context. The changes are shown in a inline style (instead of
+ separate before/after blocks). The number of context lines is set by *n* which
+ defaults to three.
+
+ By default, the diff control lines (those with ``---``, ``+++``, or ``@@``) are
+ created with a trailing newline. This is helpful so that inputs created from
+ :func:`file.readlines` result in diffs that are suitable for use with
+ :func:`file.writelines` since both the inputs and outputs have trailing
+ newlines.
+
+ For inputs that do not have trailing newlines, set the *lineterm* argument to
+ ``""`` so that the output will be uniformly newline free.
+
+ The context diff format normally has a header for filenames and modification
+ times. Any or all of these may be specified using strings for *fromfile*,
+ *tofile*, *fromfiledate*, and *tofiledate*. The modification times are normally
+ expressed in the ISO 8601 format. If not specified, the
+ strings default to blanks.

+
+SequenceMatcher Objects
+-----------------------
+
+The :class:`SequenceMatcher` class has this constructor:
+
+
+.. class:: SequenceMatcher(isjunk=None, a='', b='', autojunk=True)
+
+ Optional argument *isjunk* must be ``None`` (the default) or a one-argument
+ function that takes a sequence element and returns true if and only if the
+ element is "junk" and should be ignored. Passing ``None`` for *isjunk* is
+ equivalent to passing ``lambda x: 0``; in other words, no elements are ignored.
+ For example, pass::
+
+ lambda x: x in " \t"
+
+ if you're comparing lines as sequences of characters, and don't want to synch up
+ on blanks or hard tabs.
+
+ The optional arguments *a* and *b* are sequences to be compared; both default to
+ empty strings. The elements of both sequences must be :term:`hashable`.
+
+ The optional argument *autojunk* can be used to disable the automatic junk
+ heuristic.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7.1
+ The *autojunk* parameter.
+
+ :class:`SequenceMatcher` objects have the following methods:
+
+ .. method:: set_seqs(a, b)
+
+ Set the two sequences to be compared.
+
+ :class:`SequenceMatcher` computes and caches detailed information about the
+ second sequence, so if you want to compare one sequence against many
+ sequences, use :meth:`set_seq2` to set the commonly used sequence once and
+ call :meth:`set_seq1` repeatedly, once for each of the other sequences.
+
+
+ .. method:: set_seq1(a)
+
+ Set the first sequence to be compared. The second sequence to be compared
+ is not changed.
+
+
+ .. method:: set_seq2(b)
+
+ Set the second sequence to be compared. The first sequence to be compared
+ is not changed.
+
+
+ .. method:: find_longest_match(alo, ahi, blo, bhi)
+
+ Find longest matching block in ``a[alo:ahi]`` and ``b[blo:bhi]``.
+
+ If *isjunk* was omitted or ``None``, :meth:`find_longest_match` returns
+ ``(i, j, k)`` such that ``a[i:i+k]`` is equal to ``b[j:j+k]``, where ``alo
+ <= i <= i+k <= ahi`` and ``blo <= j <= j+k <= bhi``. For all ``(i', j',
+ k')`` meeting those conditions, the additional conditions ``k >= k'``, ``i
+ <= i'``, and if ``i == i'``, ``j <= j'`` are also met. In other words, of
+ all maximal matching blocks, return one that starts earliest in *a*, and
+ of all those maximal matching blocks that start earliest in *a*, return
+ the one that starts earliest in *b*.
+
+ >>> s = SequenceMatcher(None, " abcd", "abcd abcd")
+ >>> s.find_longest_match(0, 5, 0, 9)
+ Match(a=0, b=4, size=5)
+
+ If *isjunk* was provided, first the longest matching block is determined
+ as above, but with the additional restriction that no junk element appears
+ in the block. Then that block is extended as far as possible by matching
+ (only) junk elements on both sides. So the resulting block never matches
+ on junk except as identical junk happens to be adjacent to an interesting
+ match.
+
+ Here's the same example as before, but considering blanks to be junk. That
+ prevents ``' abcd'`` from matching the ``' abcd'`` at the tail end of the
+ second sequence directly. Instead only the ``'abcd'`` can match, and
+ matches the leftmost ``'abcd'`` in the second sequence:
+
+ >>> s = SequenceMatcher(lambda x: x==" ", " abcd", "abcd abcd")
+ >>> s.find_longest_match(0, 5, 0, 9)
+ Match(a=1, b=0, size=4)
+
+ If no blocks match, this returns ``(alo, blo, 0)``.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ This method returns a :term:`named tuple` ``Match(a, b, size)``.
+
+
+ .. method:: get_matching_blocks()
+
+ Return list of triples describing matching subsequences. Each triple is of
+ the form ``(i, j, n)``, and means that ``a[i:i+n] == b[j:j+n]``. The
+ triples are monotonically increasing in *i* and *j*.
+
+ The last triple is a dummy, and has the value ``(len(a), len(b), 0)``. It
+ is the only triple with ``n == 0``. If ``(i, j, n)`` and ``(i', j', n')``
+ are adjacent triples in the list, and the second is not the last triple in
+ the list, then ``i+n != i'`` or ``j+n != j'``; in other words, adjacent
+ triples always describe non-adjacent equal blocks.
+
+ .. XXX Explain why a dummy is used!
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ The guarantee that adjacent triples always describe non-adjacent blocks
+ was implemented.
+
+ .. doctest::
+
+ >>> s = SequenceMatcher(None, "abxcd", "abcd")
+ >>> s.get_matching_blocks()
+ [Match(a=0, b=0, size=2), Match(a=3, b=2, size=2), Match(a=5, b=4, size=0)]
+
+
+ .. method:: get_opcodes()
+
+ Return list of 5-tuples describing how to turn *a* into *b*. Each tuple is
+ of the form ``(tag, i1, i2, j1, j2)``. The first tuple has ``i1 == j1 ==
+ 0``, and remaining tuples have *i1* equal to the *i2* from the preceding
+ tuple, and, likewise, *j1* equal to the previous *j2*.
+
+ The *tag* values are strings, with these meanings:
+
+ +---------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | Value | Meaning |
+ +===============+=============================================+
+ | ``'replace'`` | ``a[i1:i2]`` should be replaced by |
+ | | ``b[j1:j2]``. |
+ +---------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'delete'`` | ``a[i1:i2]`` should be deleted. Note that |
+ | | ``j1 == j2`` in this case. |
+ +---------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'insert'`` | ``b[j1:j2]`` should be inserted at |
+ | | ``a[i1:i1]``. Note that ``i1 == i2`` in |
+ | | this case. |
+ +---------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'equal'`` | ``a[i1:i2] == b[j1:j2]`` (the sub-sequences |
+ | | are equal). |
+ +---------------+---------------------------------------------+
+
+ For example:
+
+ >>> a = "qabxcd"
+ >>> b = "abycdf"
+ >>> s = SequenceMatcher(None, a, b)
+ >>> for tag, i1, i2, j1, j2 in s.get_opcodes():
+ ... print ("%7s a[%d:%d] (%s) b[%d:%d] (%s)" %
+ ... (tag, i1, i2, a[i1:i2], j1, j2, b[j1:j2]))
+ delete a[0:1] (q) b[0:0] ()
+ equal a[1:3] (ab) b[0:2] (ab)
+ replace a[3:4] (x) b[2:3] (y)
+ equal a[4:6] (cd) b[3:5] (cd)
+ insert a[6:6] () b[5:6] (f)
+
+
+ .. method:: get_grouped_opcodes([n])
+
+ Return a :term:`generator` of groups with up to *n* lines of context.
+
+ Starting with the groups returned by :meth:`get_opcodes`, this method
+ splits out smaller change clusters and eliminates intervening ranges which
+ have no changes.
+
+ The groups are returned in the same format as :meth:`get_opcodes`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+ .. method:: ratio()
+
+ Return a measure of the sequences' similarity as a float in the range [0,
+ 1].
+
+ Where T is the total number of elements in both sequences, and M is the
+ number of matches, this is 2.0\*M / T. Note that this is ``1.0`` if the
+ sequences are identical, and ``0.0`` if they have nothing in common.
+
+ This is expensive to compute if :meth:`get_matching_blocks` or
+ :meth:`get_opcodes` hasn't already been called, in which case you may want
+ to try :meth:`quick_ratio` or :meth:`real_quick_ratio` first to get an
+ upper bound.
+
+
+ .. method:: quick_ratio()
+
+ Return an upper bound on :meth:`ratio` relatively quickly.
+
+
+ .. method:: real_quick_ratio()
+
+ Return an upper bound on :meth:`ratio` very quickly.
+
+
+The three methods that return the ratio of matching to total characters can give
+different results due to differing levels of approximation, although
+:meth:`quick_ratio` and :meth:`real_quick_ratio` are always at least as large as
+:meth:`ratio`:
+
+ >>> s = SequenceMatcher(None, "abcd", "bcde")
+ >>> s.ratio()
+ 0.75
+ >>> s.quick_ratio()
+ 0.75
+ >>> s.real_quick_ratio()
+ 1.0
+
+
+.. _sequencematcher-examples:
+
+SequenceMatcher Examples
+------------------------
+
+This example compares two strings, considering blanks to be "junk:"
+
+ >>> s = SequenceMatcher(lambda x: x == " ",
+ ... "private Thread currentThread;",
+ ... "private volatile Thread currentThread;")
+
+:meth:`ratio` returns a float in [0, 1], measuring the similarity of the
+sequences. As a rule of thumb, a :meth:`ratio` value over 0.6 means the
+sequences are close matches:
+
+ >>> print round(s.ratio(), 3)
+ 0.866
+
+If you're only interested in where the sequences match,
+:meth:`get_matching_blocks` is handy:
+
+ >>> for block in s.get_matching_blocks():
+ ... print "a[%d] and b[%d] match for %d elements" % block
+ a[0] and b[0] match for 8 elements
+ a[8] and b[17] match for 21 elements
+ a[29] and b[38] match for 0 elements
+
+Note that the last tuple returned by :meth:`get_matching_blocks` is always a
+dummy, ``(len(a), len(b), 0)``, and this is the only case in which the last
+tuple element (number of elements matched) is ``0``.
+
+If you want to know how to change the first sequence into the second, use
+:meth:`get_opcodes`:
+
+ >>> for opcode in s.get_opcodes():
+ ... print "%6s a[%d:%d] b[%d:%d]" % opcode
+ equal a[0:8] b[0:8]
+ insert a[8:8] b[8:17]
+ equal a[8:29] b[17:38]
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ * The :func:`get_close_matches` function in this module which shows how
+ simple code building on :class:`SequenceMatcher` can be used to do useful
+ work.
+
+ * `Simple version control recipe
+ <http://code.activestate.com/recipes/576729/>`_ for a small application
+ built with :class:`SequenceMatcher`.
+
+
+.. _differ-objects:
+
+Differ Objects
+--------------
+
+Note that :class:`Differ`\ -generated deltas make no claim to be **minimal**
+diffs. To the contrary, minimal diffs are often counter-intuitive, because they
+synch up anywhere possible, sometimes accidental matches 100 pages apart.
+Restricting synch points to contiguous matches preserves some notion of
+locality, at the occasional cost of producing a longer diff.
+
+The :class:`Differ` class has this constructor:
+
+
+.. class:: Differ([linejunk[, charjunk]])
+
+ Optional keyword parameters *linejunk* and *charjunk* are for filter functions
+ (or ``None``):
+
+ *linejunk*: A function that accepts a single string argument, and returns true
+ if the string is junk. The default is ``None``, meaning that no line is
+ considered junk.
+
+ *charjunk*: A function that accepts a single character argument (a string of
+ length 1), and returns true if the character is junk. The default is ``None``,
+ meaning that no character is considered junk.
+
+ :class:`Differ` objects are used (deltas generated) via a single method:
+
+
+ .. method:: Differ.compare(a, b)
+
+ Compare two sequences of lines, and generate the delta (a sequence of lines).
+
+ Each sequence must contain individual single-line strings ending with newlines.
+ Such sequences can be obtained from the :meth:`readlines` method of file-like
+ objects. The delta generated also consists of newline-terminated strings, ready
+ to be printed as-is via the :meth:`writelines` method of a file-like object.
+
+
+.. _differ-examples:
+
+Differ Example
+--------------
+
+This example compares two texts. First we set up the texts, sequences of
+individual single-line strings ending with newlines (such sequences can also be
+obtained from the :meth:`readlines` method of file-like objects):
+
+ >>> text1 = ''' 1. Beautiful is better than ugly.
+ ... 2. Explicit is better than implicit.
+ ... 3. Simple is better than complex.
+ ... 4. Complex is better than complicated.
+ ... '''.splitlines(1)
+ >>> len(text1)
+ 4
+ >>> text1[0][-1]
+ '\n'
+ >>> text2 = ''' 1. Beautiful is better than ugly.
+ ... 3. Simple is better than complex.
+ ... 4. Complicated is better than complex.
+ ... 5. Flat is better than nested.
+ ... '''.splitlines(1)
+
+Next we instantiate a Differ object:
+
+ >>> d = Differ()
+
+Note that when instantiating a :class:`Differ` object we may pass functions to
+filter out line and character "junk." See the :meth:`Differ` constructor for
+details.
+
+Finally, we compare the two:
+
+ >>> result = list(d.compare(text1, text2))
+
+``result`` is a list of strings, so let's pretty-print it:
+
+ >>> from pprint import pprint
+ >>> pprint(result)
+ [' 1. Beautiful is better than ugly.\n',
+ '- 2. Explicit is better than implicit.\n',
+ '- 3. Simple is better than complex.\n',
+ '+ 3. Simple is better than complex.\n',
+ '? ++\n',
+ '- 4. Complex is better than complicated.\n',
+ '? ^ ---- ^\n',
+ '+ 4. Complicated is better than complex.\n',
+ '? ++++ ^ ^\n',
+ '+ 5. Flat is better than nested.\n']
+
+As a single multi-line string it looks like this:
+
+ >>> import sys
+ >>> sys.stdout.writelines(result)
+ 1. Beautiful is better than ugly.
+ - 2. Explicit is better than implicit.
+ - 3. Simple is better than complex.
+ + 3. Simple is better than complex.
+ ? ++
+ - 4. Complex is better than complicated.
+ ? ^ ---- ^
+ + 4. Complicated is better than complex.
+ ? ++++ ^ ^
+ + 5. Flat is better than nested.

+-----------------------------------
+
+This example shows how to use difflib to create a ``diff``-like utility.

+ The :mod:`dircache` module has been removed in Python 3.
+
+
+.. sectionauthor:: Moshe Zadka <[email protected]>
+
+
+The :mod:`dircache` module defines a function for reading directory listing
+using a cache, and cache invalidation using the *mtime* of the directory.
+Additionally, it defines a function to annotate directories by appending a

+:mod:`dis` --- Disassembler for Python bytecode
+===============================================
+
+.. module:: dis
+ :synopsis: Disassembler for Python bytecode.
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/dis.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`dis` module supports the analysis of CPython :term:`bytecode` by
+disassembling it. The CPython bytecode which this module takes as an
+input is defined in the file :file:`Include/opcode.h` and used by the compiler
+and the interpreter.
+
+.. impl-detail::
+
+ Bytecode is an implementation detail of the CPython interpreter! No
+ guarantees are made that bytecode will not be added, removed, or changed
+ between versions of Python. Use of this module should not be considered to
+ work across Python VMs or Python releases.
+
+Example: Given the function :func:`myfunc`::
+
+ def myfunc(alist):
+ return len(alist)
+
+the following command can be used to get the disassembly of :func:`myfunc`::
+
+ >>> dis.dis(myfunc)
+ 2 0 LOAD_GLOBAL 0 (len)
+ 3 LOAD_FAST 0 (alist)
+ 6 CALL_FUNCTION 1
+ 9 RETURN_VALUE
+
+(The "2" is a line number).
+
+The :mod:`dis` module defines the following functions and constants:
+
+
+.. function:: dis([bytesource])
+
+ Disassemble the *bytesource* object. *bytesource* can denote either a module, a
+ class, a method, a function, or a code object. For a module, it disassembles
+ all functions. For a class, it disassembles all methods. For a single code
+ sequence, it prints one line per bytecode instruction. If no object is
+ provided, it disassembles the last traceback.
+
+
+.. function:: distb([tb])
+
+ Disassembles the top-of-stack function of a traceback, using the last traceback
+ if none was passed. The instruction causing the exception is indicated.
+
+
+.. function:: disassemble(code[, lasti])
+
+ Disassembles a code object, indicating the last instruction if *lasti* was
+ provided. The output is divided in the following columns:
+
+ #. the line number, for the first instruction of each line
+ #. the current instruction, indicated as ``-->``,
+ #. a labelled instruction, indicated with ``>>``,
+ #. the address of the instruction,
+ #. the operation code name,
+ #. operation parameters, and
+ #. interpretation of the parameters in parentheses.
+
+ The parameter interpretation recognizes local and global variable names,
+ constant values, branch targets, and compare operators.
+
+
+.. function:: disco(code[, lasti])
+
+ A synonym for :func:`disassemble`. It is more convenient to type, and kept
+ for compatibility with earlier Python releases.
+
+
+.. function:: findlinestarts(code)
+
+ This generator function uses the ``co_firstlineno`` and ``co_lnotab``
+ attributes of the code object *code* to find the offsets which are starts of
+ lines in the source code. They are generated as ``(offset, lineno)`` pairs.
+
+
+.. function:: findlabels(code)
+
+ Detect all offsets in the code object *code* which are jump targets, and
+ return a list of these offsets.
+
+
+.. data:: opname
+
+ Sequence of operation names, indexable using the bytecode.
+
+
+.. data:: opmap
+
+ Dictionary mapping operation names to bytecodes.
+
+
+.. data:: cmp_op
+
+ Sequence of all compare operation names.
+
+
+.. data:: hasconst
+
+ Sequence of bytecodes that have a constant parameter.
+
+
+.. data:: hasfree
+
+ Sequence of bytecodes that access a free variable.
+
+
+.. data:: hasname
+
+ Sequence of bytecodes that access an attribute by name.
+
+
+.. data:: hasjrel
+
+ Sequence of bytecodes that have a relative jump target.
+
+
+.. data:: hasjabs
+
+ Sequence of bytecodes that have an absolute jump target.
+
+
+.. data:: haslocal
+
+ Sequence of bytecodes that access a local variable.
+
+
+.. data:: hascompare
+
+ Sequence of bytecodes of Boolean operations.

+
+.. _bytecodes:
+
+Python Bytecode Instructions
+----------------------------
+
+The Python compiler currently generates the following bytecode instructions.
+
+
+.. opcode:: STOP_CODE ()
+
+ Indicates end-of-code to the compiler, not used by the interpreter.
+
+
+.. opcode:: NOP ()
+
+ Do nothing code. Used as a placeholder by the bytecode optimizer.
+
+
+.. opcode:: POP_TOP ()
+
+ Removes the top-of-stack (TOS) item.
+
+
+.. opcode:: ROT_TWO ()
+
+ Swaps the two top-most stack items.
+
+
+.. opcode:: ROT_THREE ()
+
+ Lifts second and third stack item one position up, moves top down to position
+ three.
+
+
+.. opcode:: ROT_FOUR ()
+
+ Lifts second, third and forth stack item one position up, moves top down to
+ position four.
+
+
+.. opcode:: DUP_TOP ()
+
+ Duplicates the reference on top of the stack.
+
+Unary Operations take the top of the stack, apply the operation, and push the
+result back on the stack.
+
+
+.. opcode:: UNARY_POSITIVE ()
+
+ Implements ``TOS = +TOS``.
+
+
+.. opcode:: UNARY_NEGATIVE ()
+
+ Implements ``TOS = -TOS``.
+
+
+.. opcode:: UNARY_NOT ()
+
+ Implements ``TOS = not TOS``.
+
+
+.. opcode:: UNARY_CONVERT ()
+
+ Implements ``TOS = `TOS```.
+
+
+.. opcode:: UNARY_INVERT ()
+
+ Implements ``TOS = ~TOS``.
+
+
+.. opcode:: GET_ITER ()
+
+ Implements ``TOS = iter(TOS)``.
+
+Binary operations remove the top of the stack (TOS) and the second top-most
+stack item (TOS1) from the stack. They perform the operation, and put the
+result back on the stack.
+
+
+.. opcode:: BINARY_POWER ()
+
+ Implements ``TOS = TOS1 ** TOS``.
+
+
+.. opcode:: BINARY_MULTIPLY ()
+
+ Implements ``TOS = TOS1 * TOS``.
+
+

+
+

+
+
+.. opcode:: BINARY_XOR ()
+
+ Implements ``TOS = TOS1 ^ TOS``.
+
+
+.. opcode:: BINARY_OR ()
+
+ Implements ``TOS = TOS1 | TOS``.
+
+In-place operations are like binary operations, in that they remove TOS and
+TOS1, and push the result back on the stack, but the operation is done in-place
+when TOS1 supports it, and the resulting TOS may be (but does not have to be)
+the original TOS1.
+
+
+.. opcode:: INPLACE_POWER ()
+
+ Implements in-place ``TOS = TOS1 ** TOS``.
+
+
+.. opcode:: INPLACE_MULTIPLY ()
+
+ Implements in-place ``TOS = TOS1 * TOS``.

+
+
+.. opcode:: INPLACE_TRUE_DIVIDE ()
+

+
+
+.. opcode:: INPLACE_ADD ()
+
+ Implements in-place ``TOS = TOS1 + TOS``.
+
+
+.. opcode:: INPLACE_SUBTRACT ()
+
+ Implements in-place ``TOS = TOS1 - TOS``.
+
+
+.. opcode:: INPLACE_LSHIFT ()
+
+ Implements in-place ``TOS = TOS1 << TOS``.

+
+
+.. opcode:: INPLACE_AND ()
+
+ Implements in-place ``TOS = TOS1 & TOS``.
+
+
+.. opcode:: INPLACE_XOR ()
+
+ Implements in-place ``TOS = TOS1 ^ TOS``.
+
+
+.. opcode:: INPLACE_OR ()
+
+ Implements in-place ``TOS = TOS1 | TOS``.
+
+The slice opcodes take up to three parameters.
+
+
+.. opcode:: SLICE+0 ()
+
+ Implements ``TOS = TOS[:]``.
+
+
+.. opcode:: SLICE+1 ()
+
+ Implements ``TOS = TOS1[TOS:]``.
+
+
+.. opcode:: SLICE+2 ()
+
+ Implements ``TOS = TOS1[:TOS]``.
+
+
+.. opcode:: SLICE+3 ()
+
+ Implements ``TOS = TOS2[TOS1:TOS]``.
+
+Slice assignment needs even an additional parameter. As any statement, they put
+nothing on the stack.
+
+
+.. opcode:: STORE_SLICE+0 ()
+
+ Implements ``TOS[:] = TOS1``.
+
+
+.. opcode:: STORE_SLICE+1 ()
+
+ Implements ``TOS1[TOS:] = TOS2``.
+
+
+.. opcode:: STORE_SLICE+2 ()
+
+ Implements ``TOS1[:TOS] = TOS2``.
+
+
+.. opcode:: STORE_SLICE+3 ()
+
+ Implements ``TOS2[TOS1:TOS] = TOS3``.
+
+
+.. opcode:: DELETE_SLICE+0 ()
+
+ Implements ``del TOS[:]``.
+
+
+.. opcode:: DELETE_SLICE+1 ()
+
+ Implements ``del TOS1[TOS:]``.
+
+
+.. opcode:: DELETE_SLICE+2 ()
+
+ Implements ``del TOS1[:TOS]``.
+
+
+.. opcode:: DELETE_SLICE+3 ()
+
+ Implements ``del TOS2[TOS1:TOS]``.
+
+
+.. opcode:: STORE_SUBSCR ()
+
+ Implements ``TOS1[TOS] = TOS2``.
+
+
+.. opcode:: DELETE_SUBSCR ()
+
+ Implements ``del TOS1[TOS]``.
+
+Miscellaneous opcodes.
+
+
+.. opcode:: PRINT_EXPR ()
+
+ Implements the expression statement for the interactive mode. TOS is removed
+ from the stack and printed. In non-interactive mode, an expression statement is
+ terminated with ``POP_STACK``.
+
+
+.. opcode:: PRINT_ITEM ()
+
+ Prints TOS to the file-like object bound to ``sys.stdout``. There is one such
+ instruction for each item in the :keyword:`print` statement.
+
+
+.. opcode:: PRINT_ITEM_TO ()
+
+ Like ``PRINT_ITEM``, but prints the item second from TOS to the file-like object
+ at TOS. This is used by the extended print statement.
+
+
+.. opcode:: PRINT_NEWLINE ()
+
+ Prints a new line on ``sys.stdout``. This is generated as the last operation of
+ a :keyword:`print` statement, unless the statement ends with a comma.
+
+
+.. opcode:: PRINT_NEWLINE_TO ()
+
+ Like ``PRINT_NEWLINE``, but prints the new line on the file-like object on the
+ TOS. This is used by the extended print statement.
+
+
+.. opcode:: BREAK_LOOP ()
+
+ Terminates a loop due to a :keyword:`break` statement.
+
+
+.. opcode:: CONTINUE_LOOP (target)
+
+ Continues a loop due to a :keyword:`continue` statement. *target* is the
+ address to jump to (which should be a ``FOR_ITER`` instruction).
+
+
+.. opcode:: LIST_APPEND (i)
+
+ Calls ``list.append(TOS[-i], TOS)``. Used to implement list comprehensions.
+ While the appended value is popped off, the list object remains on the
+ stack so that it is available for further iterations of the loop.
+
+
+.. opcode:: LOAD_LOCALS ()
+
+ Pushes a reference to the locals of the current scope on the stack. This is used
+ in the code for a class definition: After the class body is evaluated, the
+ locals are passed to the class definition.
+
+
+.. opcode:: RETURN_VALUE ()
+
+ Returns with TOS to the caller of the function.
+
+
+.. opcode:: YIELD_VALUE ()
+
+ Pops ``TOS`` and yields it from a :term:`generator`.
+
+
+.. opcode:: IMPORT_STAR ()
+
+ Loads all symbols not starting with ``'_'`` directly from the module TOS to the
+ local namespace. The module is popped after loading all names. This opcode
+ implements ``from module import *``.
+
+
+.. opcode:: EXEC_STMT ()
+
+ Implements ``exec TOS2,TOS1,TOS``. The compiler fills missing optional
+ parameters with ``None``.
+
+
+.. opcode:: POP_BLOCK ()
+
+ Removes one block from the block stack. Per frame, there is a stack of blocks,
+ denoting nested loops, try statements, and such.
+
+
+.. opcode:: END_FINALLY ()
+
+ Terminates a :keyword:`finally` clause. The interpreter recalls whether the
+ exception has to be re-raised, or whether the function returns, and continues
+ with the outer-next block.
+
+
+.. opcode:: BUILD_CLASS ()
+
+ Creates a new class object. TOS is the methods dictionary, TOS1 the tuple of
+ the names of the base classes, and TOS2 the class name.
+
+
+.. opcode:: SETUP_WITH (delta)
+
+ This opcode performs several operations before a with block starts. First,
+ it loads :meth:`~object.__exit__` from the context manager and pushes it onto
+ the stack for later use by :opcode:`WITH_CLEANUP`. Then,
+ :meth:`~object.__enter__` is called, and a finally block pointing to *delta*
+ is pushed. Finally, the result of calling the enter method is pushed onto
+ the stack. The next opcode will either ignore it (:opcode:`POP_TOP`), or
+ store it in (a) variable(s) (:opcode:`STORE_FAST`, :opcode:`STORE_NAME`, or
+ :opcode:`UNPACK_SEQUENCE`).
+
+
+.. opcode:: WITH_CLEANUP ()
+
+ Cleans up the stack when a :keyword:`with` statement block exits. On top of
+ the stack are 1--3 values indicating how/why the finally clause was entered:
+
+ * TOP = ``None``
+ * (TOP, SECOND) = (``WHY_{RETURN,CONTINUE}``), retval
+ * TOP = ``WHY_*``; no retval below it
+ * (TOP, SECOND, THIRD) = exc_info()
+
+ Under them is EXIT, the context manager's :meth:`__exit__` bound method.
+
+ In the last case, ``EXIT(TOP, SECOND, THIRD)`` is called, otherwise
+ ``EXIT(None, None, None)``.
+
+ EXIT is removed from the stack, leaving the values above it in the same
+ order. In addition, if the stack represents an exception, *and* the function
+ call returns a 'true' value, this information is "zapped", to prevent
+ ``END_FINALLY`` from re-raising the exception. (But non-local gotos should
+ still be resumed.)
+
+ .. XXX explain the WHY stuff!
+
+
+All of the following opcodes expect arguments. An argument is two bytes, with
+the more significant byte last.
+
+.. opcode:: STORE_NAME (namei)
+
+ Implements ``name = TOS``. *namei* is the index of *name* in the attribute
+ :attr:`co_names` of the code object. The compiler tries to use ``STORE_FAST``
+ or ``STORE_GLOBAL`` if possible.
+
+
+.. opcode:: DELETE_NAME (namei)
+
+ Implements ``del name``, where *namei* is the index into :attr:`co_names`
+ attribute of the code object.
+
+
+.. opcode:: UNPACK_SEQUENCE (count)
+
+ Unpacks TOS into *count* individual values, which are put onto the stack
+ right-to-left.
+
+
+.. opcode:: DUP_TOPX (count)
+
+ Duplicate *count* items, keeping them in the same order. Due to implementation
+ limits, *count* should be between 1 and 5 inclusive.
+
+
+.. opcode:: STORE_ATTR (namei)
+
+ Implements ``TOS.name = TOS1``, where *namei* is the index of name in
+ :attr:`co_names`.
+
+
+.. opcode:: DELETE_ATTR (namei)
+
+ Implements ``del TOS.name``, using *namei* as index into :attr:`co_names`.
+
+
+.. opcode:: STORE_GLOBAL (namei)
+
+ Works as ``STORE_NAME``, but stores the name as a global.
+
+
+.. opcode:: DELETE_GLOBAL (namei)
+
+ Works as ``DELETE_NAME``, but deletes a global name.
+
+
+.. opcode:: LOAD_CONST (consti)
+
+ Pushes ``co_consts[consti]`` onto the stack.
+
+
+.. opcode:: LOAD_NAME (namei)
+
+ Pushes the value associated with ``co_names[namei]`` onto the stack.
+
+
+.. opcode:: BUILD_TUPLE (count)
+
+ Creates a tuple consuming *count* items from the stack, and pushes the resulting
+ tuple onto the stack.
+
+
+.. opcode:: BUILD_LIST (count)
+
+ Works as ``BUILD_TUPLE``, but creates a list.
+
+
+.. opcode:: BUILD_MAP (count)
+
+ Pushes a new dictionary object onto the stack. The dictionary is pre-sized
+ to hold *count* entries.
+
+
+.. opcode:: LOAD_ATTR (namei)
+
+ Replaces TOS with ``getattr(TOS, co_names[namei])``.
+
+
+.. opcode:: COMPARE_OP (opname)
+
+ Performs a Boolean operation. The operation name can be found in
+ ``cmp_op[opname]``.
+
+
+.. opcode:: IMPORT_NAME (namei)
+
+ Imports the module ``co_names[namei]``. TOS and TOS1 are popped and provide
+ the *fromlist* and *level* arguments of :func:`__import__`. The module
+ object is pushed onto the stack. The current namespace is not affected:
+ for a proper import statement, a subsequent ``STORE_FAST`` instruction
+ modifies the namespace.
+
+
+.. opcode:: IMPORT_FROM (namei)
+
+ Loads the attribute ``co_names[namei]`` from the module found in TOS. The
+ resulting object is pushed onto the stack, to be subsequently stored by a
+ ``STORE_FAST`` instruction.
+
+
+.. opcode:: JUMP_FORWARD (delta)
+
+ Increments bytecode counter by *delta*.
+
+
+.. opcode:: POP_JUMP_IF_TRUE (target)
+
+ If TOS is true, sets the bytecode counter to *target*. TOS is popped.
+
+
+.. opcode:: POP_JUMP_IF_FALSE (target)
+
+ If TOS is false, sets the bytecode counter to *target*. TOS is popped.
+
+
+.. opcode:: JUMP_IF_TRUE_OR_POP (target)
+
+ If TOS is true, sets the bytecode counter to *target* and leaves TOS
+ on the stack. Otherwise (TOS is false), TOS is popped.
+
+
+.. opcode:: JUMP_IF_FALSE_OR_POP (target)
+
+ If TOS is false, sets the bytecode counter to *target* and leaves
+ TOS on the stack. Otherwise (TOS is true), TOS is popped.
+
+
+.. opcode:: JUMP_ABSOLUTE (target)
+
+ Set bytecode counter to *target*.
+
+
+.. opcode:: FOR_ITER (delta)
+
+ ``TOS`` is an :term:`iterator`. Call its :meth:`!next` method. If this
+ yields a new value, push it on the stack (leaving the iterator below it). If
+ the iterator indicates it is exhausted ``TOS`` is popped, and the bytecode
+ counter is incremented by *delta*.
+
+
+.. opcode:: LOAD_GLOBAL (namei)
+
+ Loads the global named ``co_names[namei]`` onto the stack.
+
+
+.. opcode:: SETUP_LOOP (delta)
+
+ Pushes a block for a loop onto the block stack. The block spans from the
+ current instruction with a size of *delta* bytes.
+
+
+.. opcode:: SETUP_EXCEPT (delta)
+
+ Pushes a try block from a try-except clause onto the block stack. *delta* points
+ to the first except block.
+
+
+.. opcode:: SETUP_FINALLY (delta)
+
+ Pushes a try block from a try-except clause onto the block stack. *delta* points
+ to the finally block.
+
+.. opcode:: STORE_MAP ()
+
+ Store a key and value pair in a dictionary. Pops the key and value while leaving
+ the dictionary on the stack.
+
+.. opcode:: LOAD_FAST (var_num)
+
+ Pushes a reference to the local ``co_varnames[var_num]`` onto the stack.
+
+
+.. opcode:: STORE_FAST (var_num)
+
+ Stores TOS into the local ``co_varnames[var_num]``.
+
+
+.. opcode:: DELETE_FAST (var_num)
+
+ Deletes local ``co_varnames[var_num]``.
+
+
+.. opcode:: LOAD_CLOSURE (i)
+
+ Pushes a reference to the cell contained in slot *i* of the cell and free
+ variable storage. The name of the variable is ``co_cellvars[i]`` if *i* is
+ less than the length of *co_cellvars*. Otherwise it is ``co_freevars[i -
+ len(co_cellvars)]``.
+
+
+.. opcode:: LOAD_DEREF (i)
+
+ Loads the cell contained in slot *i* of the cell and free variable storage.
+ Pushes a reference to the object the cell contains on the stack.
+
+
+.. opcode:: STORE_DEREF (i)
+
+ Stores TOS into the cell contained in slot *i* of the cell and free variable
+ storage.
+
+
+.. opcode:: SET_LINENO (lineno)
+
+ This opcode is obsolete.
+
+
+.. opcode:: RAISE_VARARGS (argc)
+
+ Raises an exception. *argc* indicates the number of parameters to the raise
+ statement, ranging from 0 to 3. The handler will find the traceback as TOS2,
+ the parameter as TOS1, and the exception as TOS.
+
+
+.. opcode:: CALL_FUNCTION (argc)
+
+ Calls a function. The low byte of *argc* indicates the number of positional
+ parameters, the high byte the number of keyword parameters. On the stack, the
+ opcode finds the keyword parameters first. For each keyword argument, the value
+ is on top of the key. Below the keyword parameters, the positional parameters
+ are on the stack, with the right-most parameter on top. Below the parameters,
+ the function object to call is on the stack. Pops all function arguments, and
+ the function itself off the stack, and pushes the return value.
+
+
+.. opcode:: MAKE_FUNCTION (argc)
+
+ Pushes a new function object on the stack. TOS is the code associated with the
+ function. The function object is defined to have *argc* default parameters,
+ which are found below TOS.
+
+
+.. opcode:: MAKE_CLOSURE (argc)
+
+ Creates a new function object, sets its *func_closure* slot, and pushes it on
+ the stack. TOS is the code associated with the function, TOS1 the tuple
+ containing cells for the closure's free variables. The function also has
+ *argc* default parameters, which are found below the cells.
+
+
+.. opcode:: BUILD_SLICE (argc)
+
+ .. index:: builtin: slice
+
+ Pushes a slice object on the stack. *argc* must be 2 or 3. If it is 2,
+ ``slice(TOS1, TOS)`` is pushed; if it is 3, ``slice(TOS2, TOS1, TOS)`` is
+ pushed. See the :func:`slice` built-in function for more information.
+
+
+.. opcode:: EXTENDED_ARG (ext)
+
+ Prefixes any opcode which has an argument too big to fit into the default two
+ bytes. *ext* holds two additional bytes which, taken together with the
+ subsequent opcode's argument, comprise a four-byte argument, *ext* being the two
+ most-significant bytes.
+
+
+.. opcode:: CALL_FUNCTION_VAR (argc)
+
+ Calls a function. *argc* is interpreted as in ``CALL_FUNCTION``. The top element
+ on the stack contains the variable argument list, followed by keyword and
+ positional arguments.
+
+
+.. opcode:: CALL_FUNCTION_KW (argc)
+
+ Calls a function. *argc* is interpreted as in ``CALL_FUNCTION``. The top element
+ on the stack contains the keyword arguments dictionary, followed by explicit
+ keyword and positional arguments.
+
+
+.. opcode:: CALL_FUNCTION_VAR_KW (argc)
+
+ Calls a function. *argc* is interpreted as in ``CALL_FUNCTION``. The top
+ element on the stack contains the keyword arguments dictionary, followed by the
+ variable-arguments tuple, followed by explicit keyword and positional arguments.
+
+
+.. opcode:: HAVE_ARGUMENT ()
+
+ This is not really an opcode. It identifies the dividing line between opcodes
+ which don't take arguments ``< HAVE_ARGUMENT`` and those which do ``>=
+ HAVE_ARGUMENT``.

+:mod:`dl` --- Call C functions in shared objects
+================================================
+
+.. module:: dl
+ :platform: Unix
+ :synopsis: Call C functions in shared objects.
+ :deprecated:
+
+.. deprecated:: 2.6
+ The :mod:`dl` module has been removed in Python 3. Use the :mod:`ctypes`
+ module instead.
+
+.. sectionauthor:: Moshe Zadka <[email protected]>
+
+The :mod:`dl` module defines an interface to the :c:func:`dlopen` function, which
+is the most common interface on Unix platforms for handling dynamically linked
+libraries. It allows the program to call arbitrary functions in such a library.
+
+.. warning::
+
+ The :mod:`dl` module bypasses the Python type system and error handling. If
+ used incorrectly it may cause segmentation faults, crashes or other incorrect
+ behaviour.
+
+.. note::
+
+ This module will not work unless ``sizeof(int) == sizeof(long) == sizeof(char
+ *)`` If this is not the case, :exc:`SystemError` will be raised on import.
+
+The :mod:`dl` module defines the following function:
+
+
+.. function:: open(name[, mode=RTLD_LAZY])
+
+ Open a shared object file, and return a handle. Mode signifies late binding
+ (:const:`RTLD_LAZY`) or immediate binding (:const:`RTLD_NOW`). Default is
+ :const:`RTLD_LAZY`. Note that some systems do not support :const:`RTLD_NOW`.
+
+ Return value is a :class:`dlobject`.
+
+The :mod:`dl` module defines the following constants:
+
+
+.. data:: RTLD_LAZY
+
+ Useful as an argument to :func:`.open`.
+
+
+.. data:: RTLD_NOW
+
+ Useful as an argument to :func:`.open`. Note that on systems which do not
+ support immediate binding, this constant will not appear in the module. For
+ maximum portability, use :func:`hasattr` to determine if the system supports
+ immediate binding.
+
+The :mod:`dl` module defines the following exception:
+
+
+.. exception:: error
+
+ Exception raised when an error has occurred inside the dynamic loading and
+ linking routines.
+
+Example::
+
+ >>> import dl, time
+ >>> a=dl.open('/lib/libc.so.6')
+ >>> a.call('time'), time.time()
+ (929723914, 929723914.498)
+
+This example was tried on a Debian GNU/Linux system, and is a good example of
+the fact that using this module is usually a bad alternative.
+
+
+.. _dl-objects:
+
+Dl Objects
+----------
+
+Dl objects, as returned by :func:`.open` above, have the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: dl.close()
+
+ Free all resources, except the memory.
+
+
+.. method:: dl.sym(name)
+
+ Return the pointer for the function named *name*, as a number, if it exists in
+ the referenced shared object, otherwise ``None``. This is useful in code like::
+
+ >>> if a.sym('time'):
+ ... a.call('time')
+ ... else:
+ ... time.time()
+
+ (Note that this function will return a non-zero number, as zero is the *NULL*
+ pointer)
+
+
+.. method:: dl.call(name[, arg1[, arg2...]])
+
+ Call the function named *name* in the referenced shared object. The arguments
+ must be either Python integers, which will be passed as is, Python strings, to
+ which a pointer will be passed, or ``None``, which will be passed as *NULL*.
+ Note that strings should only be passed to functions as :c:type:`const char\*`,
+ as Python will not like its string mutated.
+
+ There must be at most 10 arguments, and arguments not given will be treated as
+ ``None``. The function's return value must be a C :c:type:`long`, which is a
+ Python integer.

+.. sectionauthor:: Edward Loper <[email protected]>
+
+
+The :mod:`doctest` module searches for pieces of text that look like interactive
+Python sessions, and then executes those sessions to verify that they work
+exactly as shown. There are several common ways to use doctest:
+
+* To check that a module's docstrings are up-to-date by verifying that all
+ interactive examples still work as documented.
+
+* To perform regression testing by verifying that interactive examples from a
+ test file or a test object work as expected.
+
+* To write tutorial documentation for a package, liberally illustrated with
+ input-output examples. Depending on whether the examples or the expository text
+ are emphasized, this has the flavor of "literate testing" or "executable
+ documentation".
+
+Here's a complete but small example module::

+
+There's no output! That's normal, and it means all the examples worked. Pass

+ Test passed.
+ $
+
+That's all you need to know to start making productive use of :mod:`doctest`!
+Jump in. The following sections provide full details. Note that there are many
+examples of doctests in the standard Python test suite and libraries.
+Especially useful examples can be found in the standard test file
+:file:`Lib/test/test_doctest.py`.
+
+
+.. _doctest-simple-testmod:
+
+Simple Usage: Checking Examples in Docstrings
+---------------------------------------------
+
+The simplest way to start using doctest (but not necessarily the way you'll
+continue to do it) is to end each module :mod:`M` with::
+
+ if __name__ == "__main__":
+ import doctest
+ doctest.testmod()
+
+:mod:`doctest` then examines docstrings in module :mod:`M`.
+
+Running the module as a script causes the examples in the docstrings to get
+executed and verified::
+
+ python M.py
+
+This won't display anything unless an example fails, in which case the failing
+example(s) and the cause(s) of the failure(s) are printed to stdout, and the
+final line of output is ``***Test Failed*** N failures.``, where *N* is the
+number of examples that failed.
+
+Run it with the ``-v`` switch instead::
+
+ python M.py -v
+
+and a detailed report of all examples tried is printed to standard output, along
+with assorted summaries at the end.
+
+You can force verbose mode by passing ``verbose=True`` to :func:`testmod`, or
+prohibit it by passing ``verbose=False``. In either of those cases,
+``sys.argv`` is not examined by :func:`testmod` (so passing ``-v`` or not
+has no effect).
+
+Since Python 2.6, there is also a command line shortcut for running
+:func:`testmod`. You can instruct the Python interpreter to run the doctest
+module directly from the standard library and pass the module name(s) on the
+command line::
+
+ python -m doctest -v example.py
+
+This will import :file:`example.py` as a standalone module and run
+:func:`testmod` on it. Note that this may not work correctly if the file is
+part of a package and imports other submodules from that package.
+
+For more information on :func:`testmod`, see section :ref:`doctest-basic-api`.
+
+
+.. _doctest-simple-testfile:
+
+Simple Usage: Checking Examples in a Text File
+----------------------------------------------
+
+Another simple application of doctest is testing interactive examples in a text
+file. This can be done with the :func:`testfile` function::
+
+ import doctest
+ doctest.testfile("example.txt")
+
+That short script executes and verifies any interactive Python examples
+contained in the file :file:`example.txt`. The file content is treated as if it
+were a single giant docstring; the file doesn't need to contain a Python
+program! For example, perhaps :file:`example.txt` contains this::
+
+ The ``example`` module
+ ======================
+
+ Using ``factorial``
+ -------------------
+
+ This is an example text file in reStructuredText format. First import
+ ``factorial`` from the ``example`` module:
+
+ >>> from example import factorial
+
+ Now use it:
+
+ >>> factorial(6)
+ 120
+
+Running ``doctest.testfile("example.txt")`` then finds the error in this
+documentation::
+
+ File "./example.txt", line 14, in example.txt
+ Failed example:
+ factorial(6)
+ Expected:
+ 120
+ Got:
+ 720
+
+As with :func:`testmod`, :func:`testfile` won't display anything unless an
+example fails. If an example does fail, then the failing example(s) and the
+cause(s) of the failure(s) are printed to stdout, using the same format as
+:func:`testmod`.
+
+By default, :func:`testfile` looks for files in the calling module's directory.
+See section :ref:`doctest-basic-api` for a description of the optional arguments
+that can be used to tell it to look for files in other locations.
+
+Like :func:`testmod`, :func:`testfile`'s verbosity can be set with the
+``-v`` command-line switch or with the optional keyword argument
+*verbose*.
+
+Since Python 2.6, there is also a command line shortcut for running
+:func:`testfile`. You can instruct the Python interpreter to run the doctest
+module directly from the standard library and pass the file name(s) on the
+command line::
+
+ python -m doctest -v example.txt
+
+Because the file name does not end with :file:`.py`, :mod:`doctest` infers that
+it must be run with :func:`testfile`, not :func:`testmod`.
+
+For more information on :func:`testfile`, see section :ref:`doctest-basic-api`.
+
+
+.. _doctest-how-it-works:
+
+How It Works
+------------
+
+This section examines in detail how doctest works: which docstrings it looks at,
+how it finds interactive examples, what execution context it uses, how it
+handles exceptions, and how option flags can be used to control its behavior.
+This is the information that you need to know to write doctest examples; for
+information about actually running doctest on these examples, see the following
+sections.
+
+
+.. _doctest-which-docstrings:
+
+Which Docstrings Are Examined?
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The module docstring, and all function, class and method docstrings are
+searched. Objects imported into the module are not searched.
+
+In addition, if ``M.__test__`` exists and "is true", it must be a dict, and each
+entry maps a (string) name to a function object, class object, or string.
+Function and class object docstrings found from ``M.__test__`` are searched, and
+strings are treated as if they were docstrings. In output, a key ``K`` in
+``M.__test__`` appears with name ::
+
+ <name of M>.__test__.K
+
+Any classes found are recursively searched similarly, to test docstrings in
+their contained methods and nested classes.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ A "private name" concept is deprecated and no longer documented.
+
+
+.. _doctest-finding-examples:
+
+How are Docstring Examples Recognized?
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+In most cases a copy-and-paste of an interactive console session works fine,
+but doctest isn't trying to do an exact emulation of any specific Python shell.
+
+::
+
+ >>> # comments are ignored
+ >>> x = 12
+ >>> x
+ 12
+ >>> if x == 13:
+ ... print "yes"
+ ... else:
+ ... print "no"
+ ... print "NO"
+ ... print "NO!!!"
+ ...
+ no
+ NO
+ NO!!!
+ >>>
+
+Any expected output must immediately follow the final ``'>>> '`` or ``'... '``
+line containing the code, and the expected output (if any) extends to the next
+``'>>> '`` or all-whitespace line.
+
+The fine print:
+
+* Expected output cannot contain an all-whitespace line, since such a line is
+ taken to signal the end of expected output. If expected output does contain a
+ blank line, put ``<BLANKLINE>`` in your doctest example each place a blank line
+ is expected.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+ ``<BLANKLINE>`` was added; there was no way to use expected output containing
+ empty lines in previous versions.
+
+* All hard tab characters are expanded to spaces, using 8-column tab stops.
+ Tabs in output generated by the tested code are not modified. Because any
+ hard tabs in the sample output *are* expanded, this means that if the code
+ output includes hard tabs, the only way the doctest can pass is if the
+ :const:`NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE` option or :ref:`directive <doctest-directives>`
+ is in effect.
+ Alternatively, the test can be rewritten to capture the output and compare it
+ to an expected value as part of the test. This handling of tabs in the
+ source was arrived at through trial and error, and has proven to be the least
+ error prone way of handling them. It is possible to use a different
+ algorithm for handling tabs by writing a custom :class:`DocTestParser` class.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ Expanding tabs to spaces is new; previous versions tried to preserve hard tabs,
+ with confusing results.
+
+* Output to stdout is captured, but not output to stderr (exception tracebacks
+ are captured via a different means).
+
+* If you continue a line via backslashing in an interactive session, or for any
+ other reason use a backslash, you should use a raw docstring, which will
+ preserve your backslashes exactly as you type them::
+
+ >>> def f(x):
+ ... r'''Backslashes in a raw docstring: m\n'''
+ >>> print f.__doc__
+ Backslashes in a raw docstring: m\n
+
+ Otherwise, the backslash will be interpreted as part of the string. For example,
+ the ``\n`` above would be interpreted as a newline character. Alternatively, you
+ can double each backslash in the doctest version (and not use a raw string)::
+
+ >>> def f(x):
+ ... '''Backslashes in a raw docstring: m\\n'''
+ >>> print f.__doc__
+ Backslashes in a raw docstring: m\n
+
+* The starting column doesn't matter::
+
+ >>> assert "Easy!"
+ >>> import math
+ >>> math.floor(1.9)
+ 1.0
+
+ and as many leading whitespace characters are stripped from the expected output
+ as appeared in the initial ``'>>> '`` line that started the example.
+
+
+.. _doctest-execution-context:
+
+What's the Execution Context?
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+By default, each time :mod:`doctest` finds a docstring to test, it uses a
+*shallow copy* of :mod:`M`'s globals, so that running tests doesn't change the
+module's real globals, and so that one test in :mod:`M` can't leave behind
+crumbs that accidentally allow another test to work. This means examples can
+freely use any names defined at top-level in :mod:`M`, and names defined earlier
+in the docstring being run. Examples cannot see names defined in other
+docstrings.
+
+You can force use of your own dict as the execution context by passing
+``globs=your_dict`` to :func:`testmod` or :func:`testfile` instead.
+
+
+.. _doctest-exceptions:
+
+What About Exceptions?
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+No problem, provided that the traceback is the only output produced by the
+example: just paste in the traceback. [#]_ Since tracebacks contain details
+that are likely to change rapidly (for example, exact file paths and line
+numbers), this is one case where doctest works hard to be flexible in what it
+accepts.
+
+Simple example::
+
+ >>> [1, 2, 3].remove(42)
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
+ ValueError: list.remove(x): x not in list
+
+That doctest succeeds if :exc:`ValueError` is raised, with the ``list.remove(x):
+x not in list`` detail as shown.
+
+The expected output for an exception must start with a traceback header, which
+may be either of the following two lines, indented the same as the first line of
+the example::
+
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ Traceback (innermost last):
+
+The traceback header is followed by an optional traceback stack, whose contents
+are ignored by doctest. The traceback stack is typically omitted, or copied
+verbatim from an interactive session.
+
+The traceback stack is followed by the most interesting part: the line(s)
+containing the exception type and detail. This is usually the last line of a
+traceback, but can extend across multiple lines if the exception has a
+multi-line detail::
+
+ >>> raise ValueError('multi\n line\ndetail')
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
+ ValueError: multi
+ line
+ detail
+
+The last three lines (starting with :exc:`ValueError`) are compared against the
+exception's type and detail, and the rest are ignored.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ Previous versions were unable to handle multi-line exception details.
+
+Best practice is to omit the traceback stack, unless it adds significant
+documentation value to the example. So the last example is probably better as::
+
+ >>> raise ValueError('multi\n line\ndetail')
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ ...
+ ValueError: multi
+ line
+ detail
+
+Note that tracebacks are treated very specially. In particular, in the
+rewritten example, the use of ``...`` is independent of doctest's
+:const:`ELLIPSIS` option. The ellipsis in that example could be left out, or
+could just as well be three (or three hundred) commas or digits, or an indented
+transcript of a Monty Python skit.
+
+Some details you should read once, but won't need to remember:
+
+* Doctest can't guess whether your expected output came from an exception
+ traceback or from ordinary printing. So, e.g., an example that expects
+ ``ValueError: 42 is prime`` will pass whether :exc:`ValueError` is actually
+ raised or if the example merely prints that traceback text. In practice,
+ ordinary output rarely begins with a traceback header line, so this doesn't
+ create real problems.
+
+* Each line of the traceback stack (if present) must be indented further than
+ the first line of the example, *or* start with a non-alphanumeric character.
+ The first line following the traceback header indented the same and starting
+ with an alphanumeric is taken to be the start of the exception detail. Of
+ course this does the right thing for genuine tracebacks.
+
+* When the :const:`IGNORE_EXCEPTION_DETAIL` doctest option is specified,
+ everything following the leftmost colon and any module information in the
+ exception name is ignored.
+
+* The interactive shell omits the traceback header line for some
+ :exc:`SyntaxError`\ s. But doctest uses the traceback header line to
+ distinguish exceptions from non-exceptions. So in the rare case where you need
+ to test a :exc:`SyntaxError` that omits the traceback header, you will need to
+ manually add the traceback header line to your test example.
+
+* For some :exc:`SyntaxError`\ s, Python displays the character position of the
+ syntax error, using a ``^`` marker::
+
+ >>> 1 1
+ File "<stdin>", line 1
+ 1 1
+ ^
+ SyntaxError: invalid syntax
+
+ Since the lines showing the position of the error come before the exception type
+ and detail, they are not checked by doctest. For example, the following test
+ would pass, even though it puts the ``^`` marker in the wrong location::
+
+ >>> 1 1
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ File "<stdin>", line 1
+ 1 1
+ ^
+ SyntaxError: invalid syntax
+
+
+.. _option-flags-and-directives:
+.. _doctest-options:
+
+Option Flags
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+A number of option flags control various aspects of doctest's behavior.
+Symbolic names for the flags are supplied as module constants, which can be
+or'ed together and passed to various functions. The names can also be used in
+:ref:`doctest directives <doctest-directives>`.
+
+The first group of options define test semantics, controlling aspects of how
+doctest decides whether actual output matches an example's expected output:
+
+
+.. data:: DONT_ACCEPT_TRUE_FOR_1
+
+ By default, if an expected output block contains just ``1``, an actual output
+ block containing just ``1`` or just ``True`` is considered to be a match, and
+ similarly for ``0`` versus ``False``. When :const:`DONT_ACCEPT_TRUE_FOR_1` is
+ specified, neither substitution is allowed. The default behavior caters to that
+ Python changed the return type of many functions from integer to boolean;
+ doctests expecting "little integer" output still work in these cases. This
+ option will probably go away, but not for several years.
+
+
+.. data:: DONT_ACCEPT_BLANKLINE
+
+ By default, if an expected output block contains a line containing only the
+ string ``<BLANKLINE>``, then that line will match a blank line in the actual
+ output. Because a genuinely blank line delimits the expected output, this is
+ the only way to communicate that a blank line is expected. When
+ :const:`DONT_ACCEPT_BLANKLINE` is specified, this substitution is not allowed.
+
+
+.. data:: NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE
+
+ When specified, all sequences of whitespace (blanks and newlines) are treated as
+ equal. Any sequence of whitespace within the expected output will match any
+ sequence of whitespace within the actual output. By default, whitespace must
+ match exactly. :const:`NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE` is especially useful when a line of
+ expected output is very long, and you want to wrap it across multiple lines in
+ your source.
+
+
+.. data:: ELLIPSIS
+
+ When specified, an ellipsis marker (``...``) in the expected output can match
+ any substring in the actual output. This includes substrings that span line
+ boundaries, and empty substrings, so it's best to keep usage of this simple.
+ Complicated uses can lead to the same kinds of "oops, it matched too much!"
+ surprises that ``.*`` is prone to in regular expressions.
+
+
+.. data:: IGNORE_EXCEPTION_DETAIL
+
+ When specified, an example that expects an exception passes if an exception of
+ the expected type is raised, even if the exception detail does not match. For
+ example, an example expecting ``ValueError: 42`` will pass if the actual
+ exception raised is ``ValueError: 3*14``, but will fail, e.g., if
+ :exc:`TypeError` is raised.
+
+ It will also ignore the module name used in Python 3 doctest reports. Hence
+ both of these variations will work with the flag specified, regardless of
+ whether the test is run under Python 2.7 or Python 3.2 (or later versions)::
+
+ >>> raise CustomError('message')
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ CustomError: message
+
+ >>> raise CustomError('message')
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ my_module.CustomError: message
+
+ Note that :const:`ELLIPSIS` can also be used to ignore the
+ details of the exception message, but such a test may still fail based
+ on whether or not the module details are printed as part of the
+ exception name. Using :const:`IGNORE_EXCEPTION_DETAIL` and the details
+ from Python 2.3 is also the only clear way to write a doctest that doesn't
+ care about the exception detail yet continues to pass under Python 2.3 or
+ earlier (those releases do not support :ref:`doctest directives
+ <doctest-directives>` and ignore them as irrelevant comments). For example::
+
+ >>> (1, 2)[3] = 'moo'
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
+ TypeError: object doesn't support item assignment
+
+ passes under Python 2.3 and later Python versions with the flag specified,
+ even though the detail
+ changed in Python 2.4 to say "does not" instead of "doesn't".
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ :const:`IGNORE_EXCEPTION_DETAIL` now also ignores any information
+ relating to the module containing the exception under test
+
+
+.. data:: SKIP
+
+ When specified, do not run the example at all. This can be useful in contexts
+ where doctest examples serve as both documentation and test cases, and an
+ example should be included for documentation purposes, but should not be
+ checked. E.g., the example's output might be random; or the example might
+ depend on resources which would be unavailable to the test driver.
+
+ The SKIP flag can also be used for temporarily "commenting out" examples.
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. data:: COMPARISON_FLAGS
+
+ A bitmask or'ing together all the comparison flags above.
+
+The second group of options controls how test failures are reported:
+
+
+.. data:: REPORT_UDIFF
+
+ When specified, failures that involve multi-line expected and actual outputs are
+ displayed using a unified diff.
+
+
+.. data:: REPORT_CDIFF
+
+ When specified, failures that involve multi-line expected and actual outputs
+ will be displayed using a context diff.
+
+
+.. data:: REPORT_NDIFF
+
+ When specified, differences are computed by ``difflib.Differ``, using the same
+ algorithm as the popular :file:`ndiff.py` utility. This is the only method that
+ marks differences within lines as well as across lines. For example, if a line
+ of expected output contains digit ``1`` where actual output contains letter
+ ``l``, a line is inserted with a caret marking the mismatching column positions.
+
+
+.. data:: REPORT_ONLY_FIRST_FAILURE
+
+ When specified, display the first failing example in each doctest, but suppress
+ output for all remaining examples. This will prevent doctest from reporting
+ correct examples that break because of earlier failures; but it might also hide
+ incorrect examples that fail independently of the first failure. When
+ :const:`REPORT_ONLY_FIRST_FAILURE` is specified, the remaining examples are
+ still run, and still count towards the total number of failures reported; only
+ the output is suppressed.
+
+
+.. data:: REPORTING_FLAGS
+
+ A bitmask or'ing together all the reporting flags above.
+
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.4
+ The constants
+ :const:`DONT_ACCEPT_BLANKLINE`, :const:`NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE`,
+ :const:`ELLIPSIS`, :const:`IGNORE_EXCEPTION_DETAIL`, :const:`REPORT_UDIFF`,
+ :const:`REPORT_CDIFF`, :const:`REPORT_NDIFF`,
+ :const:`REPORT_ONLY_FIRST_FAILURE`, :const:`COMPARISON_FLAGS` and
+ :const:`REPORTING_FLAGS` were added.
+
+There's also a way to register new option flag names, although this isn't useful
+unless you intend to extend :mod:`doctest` internals via subclassing:
+
+
+.. function:: register_optionflag(name)
+
+ Create a new option flag with a given name, and return the new flag's integer
+ value. :func:`register_optionflag` can be used when subclassing
+ :class:`OutputChecker` or :class:`DocTestRunner` to create new options that are
+ supported by your subclasses. :func:`register_optionflag` should always be
+ called using the following idiom::
+
+ MY_FLAG = register_optionflag('MY_FLAG')
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+.. _doctest-directives:
+
+Directives
+^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Doctest directives may be used to modify the :ref:`option flags
+<doctest-options>` for an individual example. Doctest directives are
+special Python comments following an example's source code:
+
+.. productionlist:: doctest
+ directive: "#" "doctest:" `directive_options`
+ directive_options: `directive_option` ("," `directive_option`)\*
+ directive_option: `on_or_off` `directive_option_name`
+ on_or_off: "+" \| "-"
+ directive_option_name: "DONT_ACCEPT_BLANKLINE" \| "NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE" \| ...
+
+Whitespace is not allowed between the ``+`` or ``-`` and the directive option
+name. The directive option name can be any of the option flag names explained
+above.
+
+An example's doctest directives modify doctest's behavior for that single
+example. Use ``+`` to enable the named behavior, or ``-`` to disable it.
+
+For example, this test passes::
+
+ >>> print range(20) # doctest: +NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE
+ [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9,
+ 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19]
+
+Without the directive it would fail, both because the actual output doesn't have
+two blanks before the single-digit list elements, and because the actual output
+is on a single line. This test also passes, and also requires a directive to do
+so::
+
+ >>> print range(20) # doctest: +ELLIPSIS
+ [0, 1, ..., 18, 19]
+
+Multiple directives can be used on a single physical line, separated by
+commas::
+
+ >>> print range(20) # doctest: +ELLIPSIS, +NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE
+ [0, 1, ..., 18, 19]
+
+If multiple directive comments are used for a single example, then they are
+combined::
+
+ >>> print range(20) # doctest: +ELLIPSIS
+ ... # doctest: +NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE
+ [0, 1, ..., 18, 19]
+
+As the previous example shows, you can add ``...`` lines to your example
+containing only directives. This can be useful when an example is too long for
+a directive to comfortably fit on the same line::
+
+ >>> print range(5) + range(10,20) + range(30,40) + range(50,60)
+ ... # doctest: +ELLIPSIS
+ [0, ..., 4, 10, ..., 19, 30, ..., 39, 50, ..., 59]
+
+Note that since all options are disabled by default, and directives apply only
+to the example they appear in, enabling options (via ``+`` in a directive) is
+usually the only meaningful choice. However, option flags can also be passed to
+functions that run doctests, establishing different defaults. In such cases,
+disabling an option via ``-`` in a directive can be useful.
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.4
+ Support for doctest directives was added.
+
+
+.. _doctest-warnings:
+
+Warnings
+^^^^^^^^
+
+:mod:`doctest` is serious about requiring exact matches in expected output. If
+even a single character doesn't match, the test fails. This will probably
+surprise you a few times, as you learn exactly what Python does and doesn't
+guarantee about output. For example, when printing a dict, Python doesn't
+guarantee that the key-value pairs will be printed in any particular order, so a
+test like ::
+
+ >>> foo()
+ {"Hermione": "hippogryph", "Harry": "broomstick"}
+
+is vulnerable! One workaround is to do ::
+
+ >>> foo() == {"Hermione": "hippogryph", "Harry": "broomstick"}
+ True
+
+instead. Another is to do ::
+
+ >>> d = foo().items()
+ >>> d.sort()
+ >>> d
+ [('Harry', 'broomstick'), ('Hermione', 'hippogryph')]
+
+There are others, but you get the idea.
+
+Another bad idea is to print things that embed an object address, like ::
+
+ >>> id(1.0) # certain to fail some of the time
+ 7948648
+ >>> class C: pass
+ >>> C() # the default repr() for instances embeds an address
+ <__main__.C instance at 0x00AC18F0>
+
+The :const:`ELLIPSIS` directive gives a nice approach for the last example::
+
+ >>> C() #doctest: +ELLIPSIS
+ <__main__.C instance at 0x...>
+
+Floating-point numbers are also subject to small output variations across
+platforms, because Python defers to the platform C library for float formatting,
+and C libraries vary widely in quality here. ::
+
+ >>> 1./7 # risky
+ 0.14285714285714285
+ >>> print 1./7 # safer
+ 0.142857142857
+ >>> print round(1./7, 6) # much safer
+ 0.142857
+
+Numbers of the form ``I/2.**J`` are safe across all platforms, and I often
+contrive doctest examples to produce numbers of that form::
+
+ >>> 3./4 # utterly safe
+ 0.75
+
+Simple fractions are also easier for people to understand, and that makes for
+better documentation.
+
+
+.. _doctest-basic-api:
+
+Basic API
+---------
+
+The functions :func:`testmod` and :func:`testfile` provide a simple interface to
+doctest that should be sufficient for most basic uses. For a less formal
+introduction to these two functions, see sections :ref:`doctest-simple-testmod`
+and :ref:`doctest-simple-testfile`.
+
+
+.. function:: testfile(filename[, module_relative][, name][, package][, globs][, verbose][, report][, optionflags][, extraglobs][, raise_on_error][, parser][, encoding])
+
+ All arguments except *filename* are optional, and should be specified in keyword
+ form.
+
+ Test examples in the file named *filename*. Return ``(failure_count,
+ test_count)``.
+
+ Optional argument *module_relative* specifies how the filename should be
+ interpreted:
+
+ * If *module_relative* is ``True`` (the default), then *filename* specifies an
+ OS-independent module-relative path. By default, this path is relative to the
+ calling module's directory; but if the *package* argument is specified, then it
+ is relative to that package. To ensure OS-independence, *filename* should use
+ ``/`` characters to separate path segments, and may not be an absolute path
+ (i.e., it may not begin with ``/``).
+
+ * If *module_relative* is ``False``, then *filename* specifies an OS-specific
+ path. The path may be absolute or relative; relative paths are resolved with
+ respect to the current working directory.
+
+ Optional argument *name* gives the name of the test; by default, or if ``None``,
+ ``os.path.basename(filename)`` is used.
+
+ Optional argument *package* is a Python package or the name of a Python package
+ whose directory should be used as the base directory for a module-relative
+ filename. If no package is specified, then the calling module's directory is
+ used as the base directory for module-relative filenames. It is an error to
+ specify *package* if *module_relative* is ``False``.
+
+ Optional argument *globs* gives a dict to be used as the globals when executing
+ examples. A new shallow copy of this dict is created for the doctest, so its
+ examples start with a clean slate. By default, or if ``None``, a new empty dict
+ is used.
+
+ Optional argument *extraglobs* gives a dict merged into the globals used to
+ execute examples. This works like :meth:`dict.update`: if *globs* and
+ *extraglobs* have a common key, the associated value in *extraglobs* appears in
+ the combined dict. By default, or if ``None``, no extra globals are used. This
+ is an advanced feature that allows parameterization of doctests. For example, a
+ doctest can be written for a base class, using a generic name for the class,
+ then reused to test any number of subclasses by passing an *extraglobs* dict
+ mapping the generic name to the subclass to be tested.
+
+ Optional argument *verbose* prints lots of stuff if true, and prints only
+ failures if false; by default, or if ``None``, it's true if and only if ``'-v'``
+ is in ``sys.argv``.
+
+ Optional argument *report* prints a summary at the end when true, else prints
+ nothing at the end. In verbose mode, the summary is detailed, else the summary
+ is very brief (in fact, empty if all tests passed).
+
+ Optional argument *optionflags* or's together option flags. See section
+ :ref:`doctest-options`.
+
+ Optional argument *raise_on_error* defaults to false. If true, an exception is
+ raised upon the first failure or unexpected exception in an example. This
+ allows failures to be post-mortem debugged. Default behavior is to continue
+ running examples.
+
+ Optional argument *parser* specifies a :class:`DocTestParser` (or subclass) that
+ should be used to extract tests from the files. It defaults to a normal parser
+ (i.e., ``DocTestParser()``).
+
+ Optional argument *encoding* specifies an encoding that should be used to
+ convert the file to unicode.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ The parameter *encoding* was added.
+
+
+.. function:: testmod([m][, name][, globs][, verbose][, report][, optionflags][, extraglobs][, raise_on_error][, exclude_empty])
+
+ All arguments are optional, and all except for *m* should be specified in
+ keyword form.
+
+ Test examples in docstrings in functions and classes reachable from module *m*
+ (or module :mod:`__main__` if *m* is not supplied or is ``None``), starting with
+ ``m.__doc__``.
+
+ Also test examples reachable from dict ``m.__test__``, if it exists and is not
+ ``None``. ``m.__test__`` maps names (strings) to functions, classes and
+ strings; function and class docstrings are searched for examples; strings are
+ searched directly, as if they were docstrings.
+
+ Only docstrings attached to objects belonging to module *m* are searched.
+
+ Return ``(failure_count, test_count)``.
+
+ Optional argument *name* gives the name of the module; by default, or if
+ ``None``, ``m.__name__`` is used.
+
+ Optional argument *exclude_empty* defaults to false. If true, objects for which
+ no doctests are found are excluded from consideration. The default is a backward
+ compatibility hack, so that code still using :meth:`doctest.master.summarize` in
+ conjunction with :func:`testmod` continues to get output for objects with no
+ tests. The *exclude_empty* argument to the newer :class:`DocTestFinder`
+ constructor defaults to true.
+
+ Optional arguments *extraglobs*, *verbose*, *report*, *optionflags*,
+ *raise_on_error*, and *globs* are the same as for function :func:`testfile`
+ above, except that *globs* defaults to ``m.__dict__``.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ The parameter *optionflags* was added.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ The parameters *extraglobs*, *raise_on_error* and *exclude_empty* were added.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ The optional argument *isprivate*, deprecated in 2.4, was removed.
+
+There's also a function to run the doctests associated with a single object.
+This function is provided for backward compatibility. There are no plans to
+deprecate it, but it's rarely useful:
+
+
+.. function:: run_docstring_examples(f, globs[, verbose][, name][, compileflags][, optionflags])
+
+ Test examples associated with object *f*; for example, *f* may be a module,
+ function, or class object.
+
+ A shallow copy of dictionary argument *globs* is used for the execution context.
+
+ Optional argument *name* is used in failure messages, and defaults to
+ ``"NoName"``.
+
+ If optional argument *verbose* is true, output is generated even if there are no
+ failures. By default, output is generated only in case of an example failure.
+
+ Optional argument *compileflags* gives the set of flags that should be used by
+ the Python compiler when running the examples. By default, or if ``None``,
+ flags are deduced corresponding to the set of future features found in *globs*.
+
+ Optional argument *optionflags* works as for function :func:`testfile` above.

+Unittest API
+------------
+
+As your collection of doctest'ed modules grows, you'll want a way to run all
+their doctests systematically. Prior to Python 2.4, :mod:`doctest` had a barely
+documented :class:`Tester` class that supplied a rudimentary way to combine
+doctests from multiple modules. :class:`Tester` was feeble, and in practice most
+serious Python testing frameworks build on the :mod:`unittest` module, which
+supplies many flexible ways to combine tests from multiple sources. So, in
+Python 2.4, :mod:`doctest`'s :class:`Tester` class is deprecated, and
+:mod:`doctest` provides two functions that can be used to create :mod:`unittest`
+test suites from modules and text files containing doctests. To integrate with
+:mod:`unittest` test discovery, include a :func:`load_tests` function in your
+test module::
+
+ import unittest
+ import doctest
+ import my_module_with_doctests
+
+ def load_tests(loader, tests, ignore):
+ tests.addTests(doctest.DocTestSuite(my_module_with_doctests))
+ return tests
+
+There are two main functions for creating :class:`unittest.TestSuite` instances
+from text files and modules with doctests:
+
+
+.. function:: DocFileSuite(*paths, [module_relative][, package][, setUp][, tearDown][, globs][, optionflags][, parser][, encoding])
+
+ Convert doctest tests from one or more text files to a
+ :class:`unittest.TestSuite`.
+
+ The returned :class:`unittest.TestSuite` is to be run by the unittest framework
+ and runs the interactive examples in each file. If an example in any file
+ fails, then the synthesized unit test fails, and a :exc:`failureException`
+ exception is raised showing the name of the file containing the test and a
+ (sometimes approximate) line number.
+
+ Pass one or more paths (as strings) to text files to be examined.
+
+ Options may be provided as keyword arguments:
+
+ Optional argument *module_relative* specifies how the filenames in *paths*
+ should be interpreted:
+
+ * If *module_relative* is ``True`` (the default), then each filename in
+ *paths* specifies an OS-independent module-relative path. By default, this
+ path is relative to the calling module's directory; but if the *package*
+ argument is specified, then it is relative to that package. To ensure
+ OS-independence, each filename should use ``/`` characters to separate path
+ segments, and may not be an absolute path (i.e., it may not begin with
+ ``/``).
+
+ * If *module_relative* is ``False``, then each filename in *paths* specifies
+ an OS-specific path. The path may be absolute or relative; relative paths
+ are resolved with respect to the current working directory.
+
+ Optional argument *package* is a Python package or the name of a Python
+ package whose directory should be used as the base directory for
+ module-relative filenames in *paths*. If no package is specified, then the
+ calling module's directory is used as the base directory for module-relative
+ filenames. It is an error to specify *package* if *module_relative* is
+ ``False``.
+
+ Optional argument *setUp* specifies a set-up function for the test suite.
+ This is called before running the tests in each file. The *setUp* function
+ will be passed a :class:`DocTest` object. The setUp function can access the
+ test globals as the *globs* attribute of the test passed.
+
+ Optional argument *tearDown* specifies a tear-down function for the test
+ suite. This is called after running the tests in each file. The *tearDown*
+ function will be passed a :class:`DocTest` object. The setUp function can
+ access the test globals as the *globs* attribute of the test passed.
+
+ Optional argument *globs* is a dictionary containing the initial global
+ variables for the tests. A new copy of this dictionary is created for each
+ test. By default, *globs* is a new empty dictionary.
+
+ Optional argument *optionflags* specifies the default doctest options for the
+ tests, created by or-ing together individual option flags. See section
+ :ref:`doctest-options`. See function :func:`set_unittest_reportflags` below
+ for a better way to set reporting options.
+
+ Optional argument *parser* specifies a :class:`DocTestParser` (or subclass)
+ that should be used to extract tests from the files. It defaults to a normal
+ parser (i.e., ``DocTestParser()``).
+
+ Optional argument *encoding* specifies an encoding that should be used to
+ convert the file to unicode.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ The global ``__file__`` was added to the globals provided to doctests
+ loaded from a text file using :func:`DocFileSuite`.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ The parameter *encoding* was added.
+
+ .. note::
+ Unlike :func:`testmod` and :class:`DocTestFinder`, this function raises
+ a :exc:`ValueError` if *module* contains no docstrings. You can prevent
+ this error by passing a :class:`DocTestFinder` instance as the
+ *test_finder* argument with its *exclude_empty* keyword argument set
+ to ``False``::
+
+ >>> finder = doctest.DocTestFinder(exclude_empty=False)
+ >>> suite = doctest.DocTestSuite(test_finder=finder)
+
+
+.. function:: DocTestSuite([module][, globs][, extraglobs][, test_finder][, setUp][, tearDown][, checker])
+
+ Convert doctest tests for a module to a :class:`unittest.TestSuite`.
+
+ The returned :class:`unittest.TestSuite` is to be run by the unittest framework
+ and runs each doctest in the module. If any of the doctests fail, then the
+ synthesized unit test fails, and a :exc:`failureException` exception is raised
+ showing the name of the file containing the test and a (sometimes approximate)
+ line number.
+
+ Optional argument *module* provides the module to be tested. It can be a module
+ object or a (possibly dotted) module name. If not specified, the module calling
+ this function is used.
+
+ Optional argument *globs* is a dictionary containing the initial global
+ variables for the tests. A new copy of this dictionary is created for each
+ test. By default, *globs* is a new empty dictionary.
+
+ Optional argument *extraglobs* specifies an extra set of global variables, which
+ is merged into *globs*. By default, no extra globals are used.
+
+ Optional argument *test_finder* is the :class:`DocTestFinder` object (or a
+ drop-in replacement) that is used to extract doctests from the module.
+
+ Optional arguments *setUp*, *tearDown*, and *optionflags* are the same as for
+ function :func:`DocFileSuite` above.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ The parameters *globs*, *extraglobs*, *test_finder*, *setUp*, *tearDown*, and
+ *optionflags* were added; this function now uses the same search technique as
+ :func:`testmod`.
+
+Under the covers, :func:`DocTestSuite` creates a :class:`unittest.TestSuite` out
+of :class:`doctest.DocTestCase` instances, and :class:`DocTestCase` is a
+subclass of :class:`unittest.TestCase`. :class:`DocTestCase` isn't documented
+here (it's an internal detail), but studying its code can answer questions about
+the exact details of :mod:`unittest` integration.
+
+Similarly, :func:`DocFileSuite` creates a :class:`unittest.TestSuite` out of
+:class:`doctest.DocFileCase` instances, and :class:`DocFileCase` is a subclass
+of :class:`DocTestCase`.
+
+So both ways of creating a :class:`unittest.TestSuite` run instances of
+:class:`DocTestCase`. This is important for a subtle reason: when you run
+:mod:`doctest` functions yourself, you can control the :mod:`doctest` options in
+use directly, by passing option flags to :mod:`doctest` functions. However, if
+you're writing a :mod:`unittest` framework, :mod:`unittest` ultimately controls
+when and how tests get run. The framework author typically wants to control
+:mod:`doctest` reporting options (perhaps, e.g., specified by command line
+options), but there's no way to pass options through :mod:`unittest` to
+:mod:`doctest` test runners.
+
+For this reason, :mod:`doctest` also supports a notion of :mod:`doctest`
+reporting flags specific to :mod:`unittest` support, via this function:
+
+
+.. function:: set_unittest_reportflags(flags)
+
+ Set the :mod:`doctest` reporting flags to use.
+
+ Argument *flags* or's together option flags. See section
+ :ref:`doctest-options`. Only "reporting flags" can be used.
+
+ This is a module-global setting, and affects all future doctests run by module
+ :mod:`unittest`: the :meth:`runTest` method of :class:`DocTestCase` looks at
+ the option flags specified for the test case when the :class:`DocTestCase`
+ instance was constructed. If no reporting flags were specified (which is the
+ typical and expected case), :mod:`doctest`'s :mod:`unittest` reporting flags are
+ or'ed into the option flags, and the option flags so augmented are passed to the
+ :class:`DocTestRunner` instance created to run the doctest. If any reporting
+ flags were specified when the :class:`DocTestCase` instance was constructed,
+ :mod:`doctest`'s :mod:`unittest` reporting flags are ignored.
+
+ The value of the :mod:`unittest` reporting flags in effect before the function
+ was called is returned by the function.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+.. _doctest-advanced-api:
+
+Advanced API
+------------
+
+The basic API is a simple wrapper that's intended to make doctest easy to use.
+It is fairly flexible, and should meet most users' needs; however, if you
+require more fine-grained control over testing, or wish to extend doctest's
+capabilities, then you should use the advanced API.
+
+The advanced API revolves around two container classes, which are used to store
+the interactive examples extracted from doctest cases:
+
+* :class:`Example`: A single Python :term:`statement`, paired with its expected
+ output.
+
+* :class:`DocTest`: A collection of :class:`Example`\ s, typically extracted
+ from a single docstring or text file.
+
+Additional processing classes are defined to find, parse, and run, and check
+doctest examples:
+
+* :class:`DocTestFinder`: Finds all docstrings in a given module, and uses a
+ :class:`DocTestParser` to create a :class:`DocTest` from every docstring that
+ contains interactive examples.
+
+* :class:`DocTestParser`: Creates a :class:`DocTest` object from a string (such
+ as an object's docstring).
+
+* :class:`DocTestRunner`: Executes the examples in a :class:`DocTest`, and uses
+ an :class:`OutputChecker` to verify their output.
+
+* :class:`OutputChecker`: Compares the actual output from a doctest example with
+ the expected output, and decides whether they match.
+
+The relationships among these processing classes are summarized in the following
+diagram::
+
+ list of:
+ +------+ +---------+
+ |module| --DocTestFinder-> | DocTest | --DocTestRunner-> results
+ +------+ | ^ +---------+ | ^ (printed)
+ | | | Example | | |
+ v | | ... | v |
+ DocTestParser | Example | OutputChecker

+
+
+.. _doctest-doctest:
+
+DocTest Objects
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+
+.. class:: DocTest(examples, globs, name, filename, lineno, docstring)
+
+ A collection of doctest examples that should be run in a single namespace. The
+ constructor arguments are used to initialize the attributes of the same names.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+ :class:`DocTest` defines the following attributes. They are initialized by
+ the constructor, and should not be modified directly.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: examples
+
+ A list of :class:`Example` objects encoding the individual interactive Python
+ examples that should be run by this test.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: globs
+
+ The namespace (aka globals) that the examples should be run in. This is a
+ dictionary mapping names to values. Any changes to the namespace made by the
+ examples (such as binding new variables) will be reflected in :attr:`globs`
+ after the test is run.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: name
+
+ A string name identifying the :class:`DocTest`. Typically, this is the name
+ of the object or file that the test was extracted from.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: filename
+
+ The name of the file that this :class:`DocTest` was extracted from; or
+ ``None`` if the filename is unknown, or if the :class:`DocTest` was not
+ extracted from a file.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: lineno
+
+ The line number within :attr:`filename` where this :class:`DocTest` begins, or
+ ``None`` if the line number is unavailable. This line number is zero-based
+ with respect to the beginning of the file.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: docstring
+
+ The string that the test was extracted from, or 'None' if the string is
+ unavailable, or if the test was not extracted from a string.
+
+
+.. _doctest-example:
+
+Example Objects
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+
+.. class:: Example(source, want[, exc_msg][, lineno][, indent][, options])
+
+ A single interactive example, consisting of a Python statement and its expected
+ output. The constructor arguments are used to initialize the attributes of the
+ same names.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+ :class:`Example` defines the following attributes. They are initialized by
+ the constructor, and should not be modified directly.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: source
+
+ A string containing the example's source code. This source code consists of a
+ single Python statement, and always ends with a newline; the constructor adds
+ a newline when necessary.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: want
+
+ The expected output from running the example's source code (either from
+ stdout, or a traceback in case of exception). :attr:`want` ends with a
+ newline unless no output is expected, in which case it's an empty string. The
+ constructor adds a newline when necessary.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: exc_msg
+
+ The exception message generated by the example, if the example is expected to
+ generate an exception; or ``None`` if it is not expected to generate an
+ exception. This exception message is compared against the return value of
+ :func:`traceback.format_exception_only`. :attr:`exc_msg` ends with a newline
+ unless it's ``None``. The constructor adds a newline if needed.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: lineno
+
+ The line number within the string containing this example where the example
+ begins. This line number is zero-based with respect to the beginning of the
+ containing string.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: indent
+
+ The example's indentation in the containing string, i.e., the number of space
+ characters that precede the example's first prompt.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: options
+
+ A dictionary mapping from option flags to ``True`` or ``False``, which is used
+ to override default options for this example. Any option flags not contained
+ in this dictionary are left at their default value (as specified by the
+ :class:`DocTestRunner`'s :attr:`optionflags`). By default, no options are set.
+
+
+.. _doctest-doctestfinder:
+
+DocTestFinder objects
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+
+.. class:: DocTestFinder([verbose][, parser][, recurse][, exclude_empty])
+
+ A processing class used to extract the :class:`DocTest`\ s that are relevant to
+ a given object, from its docstring and the docstrings of its contained objects.
+ :class:`DocTest`\ s can currently be extracted from the following object types:
+ modules, functions, classes, methods, staticmethods, classmethods, and
+ properties.
+
+ The optional argument *verbose* can be used to display the objects searched by
+ the finder. It defaults to ``False`` (no output).
+
+ The optional argument *parser* specifies the :class:`DocTestParser` object (or a
+ drop-in replacement) that is used to extract doctests from docstrings.
+
+ If the optional argument *recurse* is false, then :meth:`DocTestFinder.find`
+ will only examine the given object, and not any contained objects.
+
+ If the optional argument *exclude_empty* is false, then
+ :meth:`DocTestFinder.find` will include tests for objects with empty docstrings.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+ :class:`DocTestFinder` defines the following method:
+
+
+ .. method:: find(obj[, name][, module][, globs][, extraglobs])
+
+ Return a list of the :class:`DocTest`\ s that are defined by *obj*'s
+ docstring, or by any of its contained objects' docstrings.
+
+ The optional argument *name* specifies the object's name; this name will be
+ used to construct names for the returned :class:`DocTest`\ s. If *name* is
+ not specified, then ``obj.__name__`` is used.
+
+ The optional parameter *module* is the module that contains the given object.
+ If the module is not specified or is None, then the test finder will attempt
+ to automatically determine the correct module. The object's module is used:
+
+ * As a default namespace, if *globs* is not specified.
+
+ * To prevent the DocTestFinder from extracting DocTests from objects that are
+ imported from other modules. (Contained objects with modules other than
+ *module* are ignored.)
+
+ * To find the name of the file containing the object.
+
+ * To help find the line number of the object within its file.
+
+ If *module* is ``False``, no attempt to find the module will be made. This is
+ obscure, of use mostly in testing doctest itself: if *module* is ``False``, or
+ is ``None`` but cannot be found automatically, then all objects are considered
+ to belong to the (non-existent) module, so all contained objects will
+ (recursively) be searched for doctests.
+
+ The globals for each :class:`DocTest` is formed by combining *globs* and
+ *extraglobs* (bindings in *extraglobs* override bindings in *globs*). A new
+ shallow copy of the globals dictionary is created for each :class:`DocTest`.
+ If *globs* is not specified, then it defaults to the module's *__dict__*, if
+ specified, or ``{}`` otherwise. If *extraglobs* is not specified, then it
+ defaults to ``{}``.
+
+
+.. _doctest-doctestparser:
+
+DocTestParser objects
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+
+.. class:: DocTestParser()
+
+ A processing class used to extract interactive examples from a string, and use
+ them to create a :class:`DocTest` object.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+ :class:`DocTestParser` defines the following methods:
+
+
+ .. method:: get_doctest(string, globs, name, filename, lineno)
+
+ Extract all doctest examples from the given string, and collect them into a
+ :class:`DocTest` object.
+
+ *globs*, *name*, *filename*, and *lineno* are attributes for the new
+ :class:`DocTest` object. See the documentation for :class:`DocTest` for more
+ information.
+
+
+ .. method:: get_examples(string[, name])
+
+ Extract all doctest examples from the given string, and return them as a list
+ of :class:`Example` objects. Line numbers are 0-based. The optional argument
+ *name* is a name identifying this string, and is only used for error messages.
+
+
+ .. method:: parse(string[, name])
+
+ Divide the given string into examples and intervening text, and return them as
+ a list of alternating :class:`Example`\ s and strings. Line numbers for the
+ :class:`Example`\ s are 0-based. The optional argument *name* is a name
+ identifying this string, and is only used for error messages.
+
+
+.. _doctest-doctestrunner:
+
+DocTestRunner objects
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+
+.. class:: DocTestRunner([checker][, verbose][, optionflags])
+
+ A processing class used to execute and verify the interactive examples in a
+ :class:`DocTest`.
+
+ The comparison between expected outputs and actual outputs is done by an
+ :class:`OutputChecker`. This comparison may be customized with a number of
+ option flags; see section :ref:`doctest-options` for more information. If the
+ option flags are insufficient, then the comparison may also be customized by
+ passing a subclass of :class:`OutputChecker` to the constructor.
+
+ The test runner's display output can be controlled in two ways. First, an output
+ function can be passed to :meth:`TestRunner.run`; this function will be called
+ with strings that should be displayed. It defaults to ``sys.stdout.write``. If
+ capturing the output is not sufficient, then the display output can be also
+ customized by subclassing DocTestRunner, and overriding the methods
+ :meth:`report_start`, :meth:`report_success`,
+ :meth:`report_unexpected_exception`, and :meth:`report_failure`.
+
+ The optional keyword argument *checker* specifies the :class:`OutputChecker`
+ object (or drop-in replacement) that should be used to compare the expected
+ outputs to the actual outputs of doctest examples.
+
+ The optional keyword argument *verbose* controls the :class:`DocTestRunner`'s
+ verbosity. If *verbose* is ``True``, then information is printed about each
+ example, as it is run. If *verbose* is ``False``, then only failures are
+ printed. If *verbose* is unspecified, or ``None``, then verbose output is used
+ iff the command-line switch ``-v`` is used.
+
+ The optional keyword argument *optionflags* can be used to control how the test
+ runner compares expected output to actual output, and how it displays failures.
+ For more information, see section :ref:`doctest-options`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+ :class:`DocTestParser` defines the following methods:
+
+
+ .. method:: report_start(out, test, example)
+
+ Report that the test runner is about to process the given example. This method
+ is provided to allow subclasses of :class:`DocTestRunner` to customize their
+ output; it should not be called directly.
+
+ *example* is the example about to be processed. *test* is the test
+ *containing example*. *out* is the output function that was passed to
+ :meth:`DocTestRunner.run`.
+
+
+ .. method:: report_success(out, test, example, got)
+
+ Report that the given example ran successfully. This method is provided to
+ allow subclasses of :class:`DocTestRunner` to customize their output; it
+ should not be called directly.
+
+ *example* is the example about to be processed. *got* is the actual output
+ from the example. *test* is the test containing *example*. *out* is the
+ output function that was passed to :meth:`DocTestRunner.run`.
+
+
+ .. method:: report_failure(out, test, example, got)
+
+ Report that the given example failed. This method is provided to allow
+ subclasses of :class:`DocTestRunner` to customize their output; it should not
+ be called directly.
+
+ *example* is the example about to be processed. *got* is the actual output
+ from the example. *test* is the test containing *example*. *out* is the
+ output function that was passed to :meth:`DocTestRunner.run`.
+
+
+ .. method:: report_unexpected_exception(out, test, example, exc_info)
+
+ Report that the given example raised an unexpected exception. This method is
+ provided to allow subclasses of :class:`DocTestRunner` to customize their
+ output; it should not be called directly.
+
+ *example* is the example about to be processed. *exc_info* is a tuple
+ containing information about the unexpected exception (as returned by
+ :func:`sys.exc_info`). *test* is the test containing *example*. *out* is the
+ output function that was passed to :meth:`DocTestRunner.run`.
+
+
+ .. method:: run(test[, compileflags][, out][, clear_globs])
+
+ Run the examples in *test* (a :class:`DocTest` object), and display the
+ results using the writer function *out*.
+
+ The examples are run in the namespace ``test.globs``. If *clear_globs* is
+ true (the default), then this namespace will be cleared after the test runs,
+ to help with garbage collection. If you would like to examine the namespace
+ after the test completes, then use *clear_globs=False*.
+
+ *compileflags* gives the set of flags that should be used by the Python
+ compiler when running the examples. If not specified, then it will default to
+ the set of future-import flags that apply to *globs*.
+
+ The output of each example is checked using the :class:`DocTestRunner`'s
+ output checker, and the results are formatted by the
+ :meth:`DocTestRunner.report_\*` methods.
+
+
+ .. method:: summarize([verbose])
+
+ Print a summary of all the test cases that have been run by this DocTestRunner,
+ and return a :term:`named tuple` ``TestResults(failed, attempted)``.
+
+ The optional *verbose* argument controls how detailed the summary is. If the
+ verbosity is not specified, then the :class:`DocTestRunner`'s verbosity is
+ used.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ Use a named tuple.
+
+
+.. _doctest-outputchecker:
+
+OutputChecker objects
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+
+.. class:: OutputChecker()
+
+ A class used to check the whether the actual output from a doctest example
+ matches the expected output. :class:`OutputChecker` defines two methods:
+ :meth:`check_output`, which compares a given pair of outputs, and returns true
+ if they match; and :meth:`output_difference`, which returns a string describing
+ the differences between two outputs.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+ :class:`OutputChecker` defines the following methods:
+
+
+ .. method:: check_output(want, got, optionflags)
+
+ Return ``True`` iff the actual output from an example (*got*) matches the
+ expected output (*want*). These strings are always considered to match if
+ they are identical; but depending on what option flags the test runner is
+ using, several non-exact match types are also possible. See section
+ :ref:`doctest-options` for more information about option flags.
+
+
+ .. method:: output_difference(example, got, optionflags)
+
+ Return a string describing the differences between the expected output for a
+ given example (*example*) and the actual output (*got*). *optionflags* is the
+ set of option flags used to compare *want* and *got*.
+
+
+.. _doctest-debugging:
+
+Debugging
+---------
+
+Doctest provides several mechanisms for debugging doctest examples:
+
+* Several functions convert doctests to executable Python programs, which can be
+ run under the Python debugger, :mod:`pdb`.
+
+* The :class:`DebugRunner` class is a subclass of :class:`DocTestRunner` that
+ raises an exception for the first failing example, containing information about
+ that example. This information can be used to perform post-mortem debugging on
+ the example.
+
+* The :mod:`unittest` cases generated by :func:`DocTestSuite` support the
+ :meth:`debug` method defined by :class:`unittest.TestCase`.
+
+* You can add a call to :func:`pdb.set_trace` in a doctest example, and you'll
+ drop into the Python debugger when that line is executed. Then you can inspect
+ current values of variables, and so on. For example, suppose :file:`a.py`
+ contains just this module docstring::
+
+ """
+ >>> def f(x):
+ ... g(x*2)
+ >>> def g(x):
+ ... print x+3
+ ... import pdb; pdb.set_trace()
+ >>> f(3)
+ 9
+ """
+
+ Then an interactive Python session may look like this::
+
+ >>> import a, doctest
+ >>> doctest.testmod(a)
+ --Return--
+ > <doctest a[1]>(3)g()->None
+ -> import pdb; pdb.set_trace()
+ (Pdb) list
+ 1 def g(x):
+ 2 print x+3
+ 3 -> import pdb; pdb.set_trace()
+ [EOF]
+ (Pdb) print x
+ 6
+ (Pdb) step
+ --Return--
+ > <doctest a[0]>(2)f()->None
+ -> g(x*2)
+ (Pdb) list
+ 1 def f(x):
+ 2 -> g(x*2)
+ [EOF]
+ (Pdb) print x
+ 3
+ (Pdb) step
+ --Return--
+ > <doctest a[2]>(1)?()->None
+ -> f(3)
+ (Pdb) cont
+ (0, 3)
+ >>>
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ The ability to use :func:`pdb.set_trace` usefully inside doctests was added.
+
+Functions that convert doctests to Python code, and possibly run the synthesized
+code under the debugger:
+
+
+.. function:: script_from_examples(s)
+
+ Convert text with examples to a script.
+
+ Argument *s* is a string containing doctest examples. The string is converted
+ to a Python script, where doctest examples in *s* are converted to regular code,
+ and everything else is converted to Python comments. The generated script is

+
+ import doctest
+ print doctest.script_from_examples(r"""
+ Set x and y to 1 and 2.
+ >>> x, y = 1, 2

+ # Set x and y to 1 and 2.
+ x, y = 1, 2
+ #
+ # Print their sum:
+ print x+y
+ # Expected:

+
+ This function is used internally by other functions (see below), but can also be

+ script.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+.. function:: testsource(module, name)
+
+ Convert the doctest for an object to a script.
+
+ Argument *module* is a module object, or dotted name of a module, containing the
+ object whose doctests are of interest. Argument *name* is the name (within the
+ module) of the object with the doctests of interest. The result is a string,
+ containing the object's docstring converted to a Python script, as described for
+ :func:`script_from_examples` above. For example, if module :file:`a.py`
+ contains a top-level function :func:`f`, then ::
+
+ import a, doctest
+ print doctest.testsource(a, "a.f")
+
+ prints a script version of function :func:`f`'s docstring, with doctests
+ converted to code, and the rest placed in comments.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. function:: debug(module, name[, pm])
+
+ Debug the doctests for an object.
+
+ The *module* and *name* arguments are the same as for function
+ :func:`testsource` above. The synthesized Python script for the named object's
+ docstring is written to a temporary file, and then that file is run under the
+ control of the Python debugger, :mod:`pdb`.
+
+ A shallow copy of ``module.__dict__`` is used for both local and global
+ execution context.
+
+ Optional argument *pm* controls whether post-mortem debugging is used. If *pm*
+ has a true value, the script file is run directly, and the debugger gets
+ involved only if the script terminates via raising an unhandled exception. If
+ it does, then post-mortem debugging is invoked, via :func:`pdb.post_mortem`,
+ passing the traceback object from the unhandled exception. If *pm* is not
+ specified, or is false, the script is run under the debugger from the start, via
+ passing an appropriate :func:`execfile` call to :func:`pdb.run`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ The *pm* argument was added.
+
+
+.. function:: debug_src(src[, pm][, globs])
+
+ Debug the doctests in a string.
+
+ This is like function :func:`debug` above, except that a string containing
+ doctest examples is specified directly, via the *src* argument.
+
+ Optional argument *pm* has the same meaning as in function :func:`debug` above.
+
+ Optional argument *globs* gives a dictionary to use as both local and global
+ execution context. If not specified, or ``None``, an empty dictionary is used.
+ If specified, a shallow copy of the dictionary is used.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+The :class:`DebugRunner` class, and the special exceptions it may raise, are of
+most interest to testing framework authors, and will only be sketched here. See
+the source code, and especially :class:`DebugRunner`'s docstring (which is a
+doctest!) for more details:
+
+
+.. class:: DebugRunner([checker][, verbose][, optionflags])
+
+ A subclass of :class:`DocTestRunner` that raises an exception as soon as a
+ failure is encountered. If an unexpected exception occurs, an
+ :exc:`UnexpectedException` exception is raised, containing the test, the
+ example, and the original exception. If the output doesn't match, then a
+ :exc:`DocTestFailure` exception is raised, containing the test, the example, and
+ the actual output.
+
+ For information about the constructor parameters and methods, see the
+ documentation for :class:`DocTestRunner` in section :ref:`doctest-advanced-api`.
+
+There are two exceptions that may be raised by :class:`DebugRunner` instances:
+
+
+.. exception:: DocTestFailure(test, example, got)
+
+ An exception raised by :class:`DocTestRunner` to signal that a doctest example's
+ actual output did not match its expected output. The constructor arguments are
+ used to initialize the attributes of the same names.
+
+:exc:`DocTestFailure` defines the following attributes:
+
+
+.. attribute:: DocTestFailure.test
+
+ The :class:`DocTest` object that was being run when the example failed.
+
+
+.. attribute:: DocTestFailure.example
+
+ The :class:`Example` that failed.
+
+
+.. attribute:: DocTestFailure.got
+
+ The example's actual output.
+
+
+.. exception:: UnexpectedException(test, example, exc_info)
+
+ An exception raised by :class:`DocTestRunner` to signal that a doctest
+ example raised an unexpected exception. The constructor arguments are used
+ to initialize the attributes of the same names.
+
+:exc:`UnexpectedException` defines the following attributes:
+
+
+.. attribute:: UnexpectedException.test
+
+ The :class:`DocTest` object that was being run when the example failed.
+
+
+.. attribute:: UnexpectedException.example
+
+ The :class:`Example` that failed.
+
+
+.. attribute:: UnexpectedException.exc_info
+
+ A tuple containing information about the unexpected exception, as returned by
+ :func:`sys.exc_info`.

+.. _doctest-soapbox:
+
+Soapbox
+-------
+
+As mentioned in the introduction, :mod:`doctest` has grown to have three primary
+uses:
+
+#. Checking examples in docstrings.
+
+#. Regression testing.
+
+#. Executable documentation / literate testing.
+
+These uses have different requirements, and it is important to distinguish them.
+In particular, filling your docstrings with obscure test cases makes for bad
+documentation.
+
+When writing a docstring, choose docstring examples with care. There's an art to
+this that needs to be learned---it may not be natural at first. Examples should
+add genuine value to the documentation. A good example can often be worth many
+words. If done with care, the examples will be invaluable for your users, and
+will pay back the time it takes to collect them many times over as the years go
+by and things change. I'm still amazed at how often one of my :mod:`doctest`
+examples stops working after a "harmless" change.
+
+Doctest also makes an excellent tool for regression testing, especially if you
+don't skimp on explanatory text. By interleaving prose and examples, it becomes
+much easier to keep track of what's actually being tested, and why. When a test
+fails, good prose can make it much easier to figure out what the problem is, and
+how it should be fixed. It's true that you could write extensive comments in
+code-based testing, but few programmers do. Many have found that using doctest
+approaches instead leads to much clearer tests. Perhaps this is simply because
+doctest makes writing prose a little easier than writing code, while writing
+comments in code is a little harder. I think it goes deeper than just that:
+the natural attitude when writing a doctest-based test is that you want to
+explain the fine points of your software, and illustrate them with examples.
+This in turn naturally leads to test files that start with the simplest
+features, and logically progress to complications and edge cases. A coherent
+narrative is the result, instead of a collection of isolated functions that test
+isolated bits of functionality seemingly at random. It's a different attitude,
+and produces different results, blurring the distinction between testing and
+explaining.
+
+Regression testing is best confined to dedicated objects or files. There are
+several options for organizing tests:
+
+* Write text files containing test cases as interactive examples, and test the
+ files using :func:`testfile` or :func:`DocFileSuite`. This is recommended,
+ although is easiest to do for new projects, designed from the start to use
+ doctest.
+
+* Define functions named ``_regrtest_topic`` that consist of single docstrings,
+ containing test cases for the named topics. These functions can be included in
+ the same file as the module, or separated out into a separate test file.
+
+* Define a ``__test__`` dictionary mapping from regression test topics to
+ docstrings containing test cases.
+
+.. rubric:: Footnotes
+
+.. [#] Examples containing both expected output and an exception are not supported.
+ Trying to guess where one ends and the other begins is too error-prone, and that
+ also makes for a confusing test.

+
+.. index:: single: databases
+
+.. note::
+
+ The :mod:`dumbdbm` module is intended as a last resort fallback for the
+ :mod:`anydbm` module when no more robust module is available. The :mod:`dumbdbm`
+ module is not written for speed and is not nearly as heavily used as the other
+ database modules.
+
+The :mod:`dumbdbm` module provides a persistent dictionary-like interface which
+is written entirely in Python. Unlike other modules such as :mod:`gdbm` and
+:mod:`bsddb`, no external library is required. As with other persistent
+mappings, the keys and values must always be strings.
+
+The module defines the following:
+
+
+.. exception:: error
+
+ Raised on dumbdbm-specific errors, such as I/O errors. :exc:`KeyError` is
+ raised for general mapping errors like specifying an incorrect key.
+
+
+.. function:: open(filename[, flag[, mode]])
+
+ Open a dumbdbm database and return a dumbdbm object. The *filename* argument is
+ the basename of the database file (without any specific extensions). When a
+ dumbdbm database is created, files with :file:`.dat` and :file:`.dir` extensions
+ are created.
+
+ The optional *flag* argument is currently ignored; the database is always opened
+ for update, and will be created if it does not exist.
+
+ The optional *mode* argument is the Unix mode of the file, used only when the
+ database has to be created. It defaults to octal ``0666`` (and will be modified
+ by the prevailing umask).
+

+
+.. module:: EasyDialogs
+ :platform: Mac
+ :synopsis: Basic Macintosh dialogs.
+ :deprecated:
+
+
+The :mod:`EasyDialogs` module contains some simple dialogs for the Macintosh.
+The dialogs get launched in a separate application which appears in the dock and
+must be clicked on for the dialogs be displayed. All routines take an optional
+resource ID parameter *id* with which one can override the :const:`DLOG`
+resource used for the dialog, provided that the dialog items correspond (both
+type and item number) to those in the default :const:`DLOG` resource. See source
+code for details.
+
+.. note::
+
+ This module has been removed in Python 3.x.
+
+
+The :mod:`EasyDialogs` module defines the following functions:
+
+
+.. function:: Message(str[, id[, ok]])
+
+ Displays a modal dialog with the message text *str*, which should be at most 255
+ characters long. The button text defaults to "OK", but is set to the string
+ argument *ok* if the latter is supplied. Control is returned when the user
+ clicks the "OK" button.
+
+
+.. function:: AskString(prompt[, default[, id[, ok[, cancel]]]])
+
+ Asks the user to input a string value via a modal dialog. *prompt* is the prompt
+ message, and the optional *default* supplies the initial value for the string
+ (otherwise ``""`` is used). The text of the "OK" and "Cancel" buttons can be
+ changed with the *ok* and *cancel* arguments. All strings can be at most 255
+ bytes long. :func:`AskString` returns the string entered or :const:`None` in
+ case the user cancelled.
+
+
+.. function:: AskPassword(prompt[, default[, id[, ok[, cancel]]]])
+
+ Asks the user to input a string value via a modal dialog. Like
+ :func:`AskString`, but with the text shown as bullets. The arguments have the
+ same meaning as for :func:`AskString`.
+
+
+.. function:: AskYesNoCancel(question[, default[, yes[, no[, cancel[, id]]]]])
+
+ Presents a dialog with prompt *question* and three buttons labelled "Yes", "No",
+ and "Cancel". Returns ``1`` for "Yes", ``0`` for "No" and ``-1`` for "Cancel".
+ The value of *default* (or ``0`` if *default* is not supplied) is returned when
+ the :kbd:`RETURN` key is pressed. The text of the buttons can be changed with
+ the *yes*, *no*, and *cancel* arguments; to prevent a button from appearing,
+ supply ``""`` for the corresponding argument.
+
+
+.. function:: ProgressBar([title[, maxval[, label[, id]]]])
+
+ Displays a modeless progress-bar dialog. This is the constructor for the
+ :class:`ProgressBar` class described below. *title* is the text string displayed
+ (default "Working..."), *maxval* is the value at which progress is complete
+ (default ``0``, indicating that an indeterminate amount of work remains to be
+ done), and *label* is the text that is displayed above the progress bar itself.
+
+
+.. function:: GetArgv([optionlist[ commandlist[, addoldfile[, addnewfile[, addfolder[, id]]]]]])
+
+ Displays a dialog which aids the user in constructing a command-line argument
+ list. Returns the list in ``sys.argv`` format, suitable for passing as an
+ argument to :func:`getopt.getopt`. *addoldfile*, *addnewfile*, and *addfolder*
+ are boolean arguments. When nonzero, they enable the user to insert into the
+ command line paths to an existing file, a (possibly) not-yet-existent file, and
+ a folder, respectively. (Note: Option arguments must appear in the command line
+ before file and folder arguments in order to be recognized by
+ :func:`getopt.getopt`.) Arguments containing spaces can be specified by
+ enclosing them within single or double quotes. A :exc:`SystemExit` exception is
+ raised if the user presses the "Cancel" button.
+
+ *optionlist* is a list that determines a popup menu from which the allowed
+ options are selected. Its items can take one of two forms: *optstr* or
+ ``(optstr, descr)``. When present, *descr* is a short descriptive string that
+ is displayed in the dialog while this option is selected in the popup menu. The
+ correspondence between *optstr*\s and command-line arguments is:
+
+ +----------------------+------------------------------------------+
+ | *optstr* format | Command-line format |
+ +======================+==========================================+
+ | ``x`` | :option:`-x` (short option) |
+ +----------------------+------------------------------------------+

+ +----------------------+------------------------------------------+
+ | ``xyz:`` or ``xyz=`` | :option:`--xyz` (long option with value) |
+ +----------------------+------------------------------------------+
+
+ *commandlist* is a list of items of the form *cmdstr* or ``(cmdstr, descr)``,
+ where *descr* is as above. The *cmdstr*\ s will appear in a popup menu. When
+ chosen, the text of *cmdstr* will be appended to the command line as is, except
+ that a trailing ``':'`` or ``'='`` (if present) will be trimmed off.

+
+ Post a dialog asking the user for a file to open, and return the file selected
+ or :const:`None` if the user cancelled. *message* is a text message to display,
+ *typeList* is a list of 4-char filetypes allowable, *defaultLocation* is the

+ProgressBar Objects
+-------------------
+
+:class:`ProgressBar` objects provide support for modeless progress-bar dialogs.
+Both determinate (thermometer style) and indeterminate (barber-pole style)
+progress bars are supported. The bar will be determinate if its maximum value
+is greater than zero; otherwise it will be indeterminate.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.2
+ Support for indeterminate-style progress bars was added.
+
+The dialog is displayed immediately after creation. If the dialog's "Cancel"
+button is pressed, or if :kbd:`Cmd-.` or :kbd:`ESC` is typed, the dialog window
+is hidden and :exc:`KeyboardInterrupt` is raised (but note that this response
+does not occur until the progress bar is next updated, typically via a call to
+:meth:`inc` or :meth:`set`). Otherwise, the bar remains visible until the
+:class:`ProgressBar` object is discarded.
+
+:class:`ProgressBar` objects possess the following attributes and methods:
+
+
+.. attribute:: ProgressBar.curval
+
+ The current value (of type integer or long integer) of the progress bar. The
+ normal access methods coerce :attr:`curval` between ``0`` and :attr:`maxval`.
+ This attribute should not be altered directly.
+
+
+.. attribute:: ProgressBar.maxval
+
+ The maximum value (of type integer or long integer) of the progress bar; the
+ progress bar (thermometer style) is full when :attr:`curval` equals
+ :attr:`maxval`. If :attr:`maxval` is ``0``, the bar will be indeterminate
+ (barber-pole). This attribute should not be altered directly.
+
+
+.. method:: ProgressBar.title([newstr])
+
+ Sets the text in the title bar of the progress dialog to *newstr*.
+
+
+.. method:: ProgressBar.label([newstr])
+
+ Sets the text in the progress box of the progress dialog to *newstr*.
+
+
+.. method:: ProgressBar.set(value[, max])
+
+ Sets the progress bar's :attr:`curval` to *value*, and also :attr:`maxval` to
+ *max* if the latter is provided. *value* is first coerced between 0 and
+ :attr:`maxval`. The thermometer bar is updated to reflect the changes,
+ including a change from indeterminate to determinate or vice versa.
+
+
+.. method:: ProgressBar.inc([n])
+
+ Increments the progress bar's :attr:`curval` by *n*, or by ``1`` if *n* is not
+ provided. (Note that *n* may be negative, in which case the effect is a
+ decrement.) The progress bar is updated to reflect the change. If the bar is
+ indeterminate, this causes one "spin" of the barber pole. The resulting
+ :attr:`curval` is coerced between 0 and :attr:`maxval` if incrementing causes it
+ to fall outside this range.

+
+First, let's see how to create and send a simple text message:
+
+.. literalinclude:: ../includes/email-simple.py
+
+
+And parsing RFC822 headers can easily be done by the parse(filename) or

+
+.. literalinclude:: ../includes/email-mime.py
+
+
+Here's an example of how to send the entire contents of a directory as an email

+:mod:`email.charset`: Representing character sets
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+.. module:: email.charset
+ :synopsis: Character Sets
+
+
+This module provides a class :class:`Charset` for representing character sets
+and character set conversions in email messages, as well as a character set
+registry and several convenience methods for manipulating this registry.
+Instances of :class:`Charset` are used in several other modules within the
+:mod:`email` package.
+
+Import this class from the :mod:`email.charset` module.
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.2.2
+
+
+.. class:: Charset([input_charset])
+
+ Map character sets to their email properties.
+
+ This class provides information about the requirements imposed on email for a
+ specific character set. It also provides convenience routines for converting
+ between character sets, given the availability of the applicable codecs. Given
+ a character set, it will do its best to provide information on how to use that
+ character set in an email message in an RFC-compliant way.
+
+ Certain character sets must be encoded with quoted-printable or base64 when used
+ in email headers or bodies. Certain character sets must be converted outright,
+ and are not allowed in email.
+
+ Optional *input_charset* is as described below; it is always coerced to lower
+ case. After being alias normalized it is also used as a lookup into the
+ registry of character sets to find out the header encoding, body encoding, and
+ output conversion codec to be used for the character set. For example, if
+ *input_charset* is ``iso-8859-1``, then headers and bodies will be encoded using
+ quoted-printable and no output conversion codec is necessary. If
+ *input_charset* is ``euc-jp``, then headers will be encoded with base64, bodies
+ will not be encoded, but output text will be converted from the ``euc-jp``
+ character set to the ``iso-2022-jp`` character set.
+
+ :class:`Charset` instances have the following data attributes:
+
+
+ .. attribute:: input_charset
+
+ The initial character set specified. Common aliases are converted to
+ their *official* email names (e.g. ``latin_1`` is converted to
+ ``iso-8859-1``). Defaults to 7-bit ``us-ascii``.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: header_encoding
+
+ If the character set must be encoded before it can be used in an email
+ header, this attribute will be set to ``Charset.QP`` (for
+ quoted-printable), ``Charset.BASE64`` (for base64 encoding), or
+ ``Charset.SHORTEST`` for the shortest of QP or BASE64 encoding. Otherwise,
+ it will be ``None``.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: body_encoding
+
+ Same as *header_encoding*, but describes the encoding for the mail
+ message's body, which indeed may be different than the header encoding.
+ ``Charset.SHORTEST`` is not allowed for *body_encoding*.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: output_charset
+
+ Some character sets must be converted before they can be used in email headers
+ or bodies. If the *input_charset* is one of them, this attribute will
+ contain the name of the character set output will be converted to. Otherwise, it will
+ be ``None``.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: input_codec
+
+ The name of the Python codec used to convert the *input_charset* to
+ Unicode. If no conversion codec is necessary, this attribute will be
+ ``None``.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: output_codec
+
+ The name of the Python codec used to convert Unicode to the
+ *output_charset*. If no conversion codec is necessary, this attribute
+ will have the same value as the *input_codec*.
+
+ :class:`Charset` instances also have the following methods:
+
+
+ .. method:: get_body_encoding()
+
+ Return the content transfer encoding used for body encoding.
+
+ This is either the string ``quoted-printable`` or ``base64`` depending on
+ the encoding used, or it is a function, in which case you should call the
+ function with a single argument, the Message object being encoded. The
+ function should then set the :mailheader:`Content-Transfer-Encoding`
+ header itself to whatever is appropriate.
+
+ Returns the string ``quoted-printable`` if *body_encoding* is ``QP``,
+ returns the string ``base64`` if *body_encoding* is ``BASE64``, and
+ returns the string ``7bit`` otherwise.
+
+
+ .. method:: convert(s)
+
+ Convert the string *s* from the *input_codec* to the *output_codec*.
+
+
+ .. method:: to_splittable(s)
+
+ Convert a possibly multibyte string to a safely splittable format. *s* is
+ the string to split.
+
+ Uses the *input_codec* to try and convert the string to Unicode, so it can
+ be safely split on character boundaries (even for multibyte characters).
+
+ Returns the string as-is if it isn't known how to convert *s* to Unicode
+ with the *input_charset*.
+
+ Characters that could not be converted to Unicode will be replaced with
+ the Unicode replacement character ``'U+FFFD'``.
+
+
+ .. method:: from_splittable(ustr[, to_output])
+
+ Convert a splittable string back into an encoded string. *ustr* is a
+ Unicode string to "unsplit".
+
+ This method uses the proper codec to try and convert the string from
+ Unicode back into an encoded format. Return the string as-is if it is not
+ Unicode, or if it could not be converted from Unicode.
+
+ Characters that could not be converted from Unicode will be replaced with
+ an appropriate character (usually ``'?'``).
+
+ If *to_output* is ``True`` (the default), uses *output_codec* to convert
+ to an encoded format. If *to_output* is ``False``, it uses *input_codec*.
+
+
+ .. method:: get_output_charset()
+
+ Return the output character set.
+
+ This is the *output_charset* attribute if that is not ``None``, otherwise
+ it is *input_charset*.
+
+
+ .. method:: encoded_header_len()
+
+ Return the length of the encoded header string, properly calculating for
+ quoted-printable or base64 encoding.
+
+
+ .. method:: header_encode(s[, convert])
+
+ Header-encode the string *s*.
+
+ If *convert* is ``True``, the string will be converted from the input
+ charset to the output charset automatically. This is not useful for
+ multibyte character sets, which have line length issues (multibyte
+ characters must be split on a character, not a byte boundary); use the
+ higher-level :class:`~email.header.Header` class to deal with these issues
+ (see :mod:`email.header`). *convert* defaults to ``False``.
+
+ The type of encoding (base64 or quoted-printable) will be based on the
+ *header_encoding* attribute.
+
+
+ .. method:: body_encode(s[, convert])
+
+ Body-encode the string *s*.
+
+ If *convert* is ``True`` (the default), the string will be converted from
+ the input charset to output charset automatically. Unlike
+ :meth:`header_encode`, there are no issues with byte boundaries and
+ multibyte charsets in email bodies, so this is usually pretty safe.
+
+ The type of encoding (base64 or quoted-printable) will be based on the
+ *body_encoding* attribute.
+
+ The :class:`Charset` class also provides a number of methods to support
+ standard operations and built-in functions.
+
+
+ .. method:: __str__()
+
+ Returns *input_charset* as a string coerced to lower
+ case. :meth:`__repr__` is an alias for :meth:`__str__`.
+
+
+ .. method:: __eq__(other)
+
+ This method allows you to compare two :class:`Charset` instances for
+ equality.
+
+
+ .. method:: __ne__(other)
+
+ This method allows you to compare two :class:`Charset` instances for
+ inequality.
+
+The :mod:`email.charset` module also provides the following functions for adding
+new entries to the global character set, alias, and codec registries:
+
+
+.. function:: add_charset(charset[, header_enc[, body_enc[, output_charset]]])
+
+ Add character properties to the global registry.
+
+ *charset* is the input character set, and must be the canonical name of a
+ character set.
+
+ Optional *header_enc* and *body_enc* is either ``Charset.QP`` for
+ quoted-printable, ``Charset.BASE64`` for base64 encoding,
+ ``Charset.SHORTEST`` for the shortest of quoted-printable or base64 encoding,
+ or ``None`` for no encoding. ``SHORTEST`` is only valid for
+ *header_enc*. The default is ``None`` for no encoding.
+
+ Optional *output_charset* is the character set that the output should be in.
+ Conversions will proceed from input charset, to Unicode, to the output charset
+ when the method :meth:`Charset.convert` is called. The default is to output in
+ the same character set as the input.
+
+ Both *input_charset* and *output_charset* must have Unicode codec entries in the
+ module's character set-to-codec mapping; use :func:`add_codec` to add codecs the
+ module does not know about. See the :mod:`codecs` module's documentation for
+ more information.
+
+ The global character set registry is kept in the module global dictionary
+ ``CHARSETS``.
+
+
+.. function:: add_alias(alias, canonical)
+
+ Add a character set alias. *alias* is the alias name, e.g. ``latin-1``.
+ *canonical* is the character set's canonical name, e.g. ``iso-8859-1``.
+
+ The global charset alias registry is kept in the module global dictionary
+ ``ALIASES``.
+
+
+.. function:: add_codec(charset, codecname)
+
+ Add a codec that map characters in the given character set to and from Unicode.
+
+ *charset* is the canonical name of a character set. *codecname* is the name of a
+ Python codec, as appropriate for the second argument to the :func:`unicode`
+ built-in, or to the :meth:`encode` method of a Unicode string.

+:mod:`email.encoders`: Encoders
+-------------------------------
+
+.. module:: email.encoders
+ :synopsis: Encoders for email message payloads.
+
+
+When creating :class:`~email.message.Message` objects from scratch, you often
+need to encode the payloads for transport through compliant mail servers. This
+is especially true for :mimetype:`image/\*` and :mimetype:`text/\*` type messages
+containing binary data.
+
+The :mod:`email` package provides some convenient encodings in its
+:mod:`encoders` module. These encoders are actually used by the
+:class:`~email.mime.audio.MIMEAudio` and :class:`~email.mime.image.MIMEImage`
+class constructors to provide default encodings. All encoder functions take
+exactly one argument, the message object to encode. They usually extract the
+payload, encode it, and reset the payload to this newly encoded value. They
+should also set the :mailheader:`Content-Transfer-Encoding` header as appropriate.
+
+Note that these functions are not meaningful for a multipart message. They
+must be applied to individual subparts instead, and will raise a
+:exc:`TypeError` if passed a message whose type is multipart.
+
+Here are the encoding functions provided:
+
+
+.. function:: encode_quopri(msg)
+
+ Encodes the payload into quoted-printable form and sets the
+ :mailheader:`Content-Transfer-Encoding` header to ``quoted-printable`` [#]_.
+ This is a good encoding to use when most of your payload is normal printable
+ data, but contains a few unprintable characters.
+
+
+.. function:: encode_base64(msg)
+
+ Encodes the payload into base64 form and sets the
+ :mailheader:`Content-Transfer-Encoding` header to ``base64``. This is a good
+ encoding to use when most of your payload is unprintable data since it is a more
+ compact form than quoted-printable. The drawback of base64 encoding is that it
+ renders the text non-human readable.
+
+
+.. function:: encode_7or8bit(msg)
+
+ This doesn't actually modify the message's payload, but it does set the
+ :mailheader:`Content-Transfer-Encoding` header to either ``7bit`` or ``8bit`` as
+ appropriate, based on the payload data.
+
+
+.. function:: encode_noop(msg)
+
+ This does nothing; it doesn't even set the
+ :mailheader:`Content-Transfer-Encoding` header.
+
+.. rubric:: Footnotes
+
+.. [#] Note that encoding with :meth:`encode_quopri` also encodes all tabs and space
+ characters in the data.

+:mod:`email.errors`: Exception and Defect classes
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+.. module:: email.errors
+ :synopsis: The exception classes used by the email package.
+
+
+The following exception classes are defined in the :mod:`email.errors` module:
+
+
+.. exception:: MessageError()
+
+ This is the base class for all exceptions that the :mod:`email` package can
+ raise. It is derived from the standard :exc:`Exception` class and defines no
+ additional methods.
+
+
+.. exception:: MessageParseError()
+
+ This is the base class for exceptions raised by the :class:`~email.parser.Parser`
+ class. It is derived from :exc:`MessageError`.
+
+
+.. exception:: HeaderParseError()
+
+ Raised under some error conditions when parsing the :rfc:`2822` headers of a
+ message, this class is derived from :exc:`MessageParseError`. It can be raised
+ from the :meth:`Parser.parse` or :meth:`Parser.parsestr` methods.
+
+ Situations where it can be raised include finding an envelope header after the
+ first :rfc:`2822` header of the message, finding a continuation line before the
+ first :rfc:`2822` header is found, or finding a line in the headers which is
+ neither a header or a continuation line.
+
+
+.. exception:: BoundaryError()
+
+ Raised under some error conditions when parsing the :rfc:`2822` headers of a
+ message, this class is derived from :exc:`MessageParseError`. It can be raised
+ from the :meth:`Parser.parse` or :meth:`Parser.parsestr` methods.
+
+ Situations where it can be raised include not being able to find the starting or
+ terminating boundary in a :mimetype:`multipart/\*` message when strict parsing
+ is used.
+
+
+.. exception:: MultipartConversionError()
+
+ Raised when a payload is added to a :class:`Message` object using
+ :meth:`add_payload`, but the payload is already a scalar and the message's
+ :mailheader:`Content-Type` main type is not either :mimetype:`multipart` or
+ missing. :exc:`MultipartConversionError` multiply inherits from
+ :exc:`MessageError` and the built-in :exc:`TypeError`.
+
+ Since :meth:`Message.add_payload` is deprecated, this exception is rarely raised
+ in practice. However the exception may also be raised if the :meth:`attach`
+ method is called on an instance of a class derived from
+ :class:`~email.mime.nonmultipart.MIMENonMultipart` (e.g.
+ :class:`~email.mime.image.MIMEImage`).
+
+Here's the list of the defects that the :class:`~email.mime.parser.FeedParser`
+can find while parsing messages. Note that the defects are added to the message
+where the problem was found, so for example, if a message nested inside a
+:mimetype:`multipart/alternative` had a malformed header, that nested message
+object would have a defect, but the containing messages would not.
+
+All defect classes are subclassed from :class:`email.errors.MessageDefect`, but
+this class is *not* an exception!
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.4
+ All the defect classes were added.
+
+* :class:`NoBoundaryInMultipartDefect` -- A message claimed to be a multipart,
+ but had no :mimetype:`boundary` parameter.
+
+* :class:`StartBoundaryNotFoundDefect` -- The start boundary claimed in the
+ :mailheader:`Content-Type` header was never found.
+
+* :class:`FirstHeaderLineIsContinuationDefect` -- The message had a continuation
+ line as its first header line.
+
+* :class:`MisplacedEnvelopeHeaderDefect` - A "Unix From" header was found in the
+ middle of a header block.
+
+* :class:`MalformedHeaderDefect` -- A header was found that was missing a colon,
+ or was otherwise malformed.
+
+* :class:`MultipartInvariantViolationDefect` -- A message claimed to be a
+ :mimetype:`multipart`, but no subparts were found. Note that when a message has
+ this defect, its :meth:`is_multipart` method may return false even though its

+:mod:`email.generator`: Generating MIME documents
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+.. module:: email.generator
+ :synopsis: Generate flat text email messages from a message structure.
+
+
+One of the most common tasks is to generate the flat text of the email message
+represented by a message object structure. You will need to do this if you want
+to send your message via the :mod:`smtplib` module or the :mod:`nntplib` module,
+or print the message on the console. Taking a message object structure and
+producing a flat text document is the job of the :class:`Generator` class.
+
+Again, as with the :mod:`email.parser` module, you aren't limited to the
+functionality of the bundled generator; you could write one from scratch
+yourself. However the bundled generator knows how to generate most email in a
+standards-compliant way, should handle MIME and non-MIME email messages just
+fine, and is designed so that the transformation from flat text, to a message
+structure via the :class:`~email.parser.Parser` class, and back to flat text,
+is idempotent (the input is identical to the output) [#]_. On the other hand,
+using the Generator on a :class:`~email.message.Message` constructed by program
+may result in changes to the :class:`~email.message.Message` object as defaults
+are filled in.
+
+Here are the public methods of the :class:`Generator` class, imported from the
+:mod:`email.generator` module:
+
+
+.. class:: Generator(outfp[, mangle_from_[, maxheaderlen]])
+
+ The constructor for the :class:`Generator` class takes a file-like object called
+ *outfp* for an argument. *outfp* must support the :meth:`write` method and be
+ usable as the output file in a Python extended print statement.
+
+ Optional *mangle_from_* is a flag that, when ``True``, puts a ``>`` character in
+ front of any line in the body that starts exactly as ``From``, i.e. ``From``
+ followed by a space at the beginning of the line. This is the only guaranteed
+ portable way to avoid having such lines be mistaken for a Unix mailbox format
+ envelope header separator (see `WHY THE CONTENT-LENGTH FORMAT IS BAD
+ <http://www.jwz.org/doc/content-length.html>`_ for details). *mangle_from_*
+ defaults to ``True``, but you might want to set this to ``False`` if you are not
+ writing Unix mailbox format files.
+
+ Optional *maxheaderlen* specifies the longest length for a non-continued header.
+ When a header line is longer than *maxheaderlen* (in characters, with tabs
+ expanded to 8 spaces), the header will be split as defined in the
+ :class:`~email.header.Header` class. Set to zero to disable header wrapping.
+ The default is 78, as recommended (but not required) by :rfc:`2822`.
+
+ The other public :class:`Generator` methods are:
+
+
+ .. method:: flatten(msg[, unixfrom])
+
+ Print the textual representation of the message object structure rooted at
+ *msg* to the output file specified when the :class:`Generator` instance
+ was created. Subparts are visited depth-first and the resulting text will
+ be properly MIME encoded.
+
+ Optional *unixfrom* is a flag that forces the printing of the envelope
+ header delimiter before the first :rfc:`2822` header of the root message
+ object. If the root object has no envelope header, a standard one is
+ crafted. By default, this is set to ``False`` to inhibit the printing of
+ the envelope delimiter.
+
+ Note that for subparts, no envelope header is ever printed.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2.2
+
+
+ .. method:: clone(fp)
+
+ Return an independent clone of this :class:`Generator` instance with the
+ exact same options.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2.2
+
+
+ .. method:: write(s)
+
+ Write the string *s* to the underlying file object, i.e. *outfp* passed to
+ :class:`Generator`'s constructor. This provides just enough file-like API
+ for :class:`Generator` instances to be used in extended print statements.
+
+As a convenience, see the methods :meth:`Message.as_string` and
+``str(aMessage)``, a.k.a. :meth:`Message.__str__`, which simplify the generation
+of a formatted string representation of a message object. For more detail, see
+:mod:`email.message`.
+
+The :mod:`email.generator` module also provides a derived class, called
+:class:`DecodedGenerator` which is like the :class:`Generator` base class,
+except that non-\ :mimetype:`text` parts are substituted with a format string
+representing the part.
+
+
+.. class:: DecodedGenerator(outfp[, mangle_from_[, maxheaderlen[, fmt]]])
+
+ This class, derived from :class:`Generator` walks through all the subparts of a
+ message. If the subpart is of main type :mimetype:`text`, then it prints the
+ decoded payload of the subpart. Optional *_mangle_from_* and *maxheaderlen* are
+ as with the :class:`Generator` base class.
+
+ If the subpart is not of main type :mimetype:`text`, optional *fmt* is a format
+ string that is used instead of the message payload. *fmt* is expanded with the
+ following keywords, ``%(keyword)s`` format:
+
+ * ``type`` -- Full MIME type of the non-\ :mimetype:`text` part
+
+ * ``maintype`` -- Main MIME type of the non-\ :mimetype:`text` part
+
+ * ``subtype`` -- Sub-MIME type of the non-\ :mimetype:`text` part
+
+ * ``filename`` -- Filename of the non-\ :mimetype:`text` part
+
+ * ``description`` -- Description associated with the non-\ :mimetype:`text` part
+
+ * ``encoding`` -- Content transfer encoding of the non-\ :mimetype:`text` part
+
+ The default value for *fmt* is ``None``, meaning ::
+
+ [Non-text (%(type)s) part of message omitted, filename %(filename)s]
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2.2
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ The previously deprecated method :meth:`__call__` was removed.
+
+
+.. rubric:: Footnotes
+
+.. [#] This statement assumes that you use the appropriate setting for the
+ ``unixfrom`` argument, and that you set maxheaderlen=0 (which will
+ preserve whatever the input line lengths were). It is also not strictly
+ true, since in many cases runs of whitespace in headers are collapsed
+ into single blanks. The latter is a bug that will eventually be fixed.

+:mod:`email.header`: Internationalized headers
+----------------------------------------------
+
+.. module:: email.header
+ :synopsis: Representing non-ASCII headers
+
+
+:rfc:`2822` is the base standard that describes the format of email messages.
+It derives from the older :rfc:`822` standard which came into widespread use at
+a time when most email was composed of ASCII characters only. :rfc:`2822` is a
+specification written assuming email contains only 7-bit ASCII characters.
+
+Of course, as email has been deployed worldwide, it has become
+internationalized, such that language specific character sets can now be used in
+email messages. The base standard still requires email messages to be
+transferred using only 7-bit ASCII characters, so a slew of RFCs have been
+written describing how to encode email containing non-ASCII characters into
+:rfc:`2822`\ -compliant format. These RFCs include :rfc:`2045`, :rfc:`2046`,
+:rfc:`2047`, and :rfc:`2231`. The :mod:`email` package supports these standards
+in its :mod:`email.header` and :mod:`email.charset` modules.
+
+If you want to include non-ASCII characters in your email headers, say in the
+:mailheader:`Subject` or :mailheader:`To` fields, you should use the
+:class:`Header` class and assign the field in the :class:`~email.message.Message`
+object to an instance of :class:`Header` instead of using a string for the header
+value. Import the :class:`Header` class from the :mod:`email.header` module.
+For example::
+
+ >>> from email.message import Message
+ >>> from email.header import Header
+ >>> msg = Message()
+ >>> h = Header('p\xf6stal', 'iso-8859-1')
+ >>> msg['Subject'] = h
+ >>> print msg.as_string()
+ Subject: =?iso-8859-1?q?p=F6stal?=
+
+
+
+Notice here how we wanted the :mailheader:`Subject` field to contain a non-ASCII
+character? We did this by creating a :class:`Header` instance and passing in
+the character set that the byte string was encoded in. When the subsequent
+:class:`~email.message.Message` instance was flattened, the :mailheader:`Subject`
+field was properly :rfc:`2047` encoded. MIME-aware mail readers would show this
+header using the embedded ISO-8859-1 character.
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.2.2
+
+Here is the :class:`Header` class description:
+
+
+.. class:: Header([s[, charset[, maxlinelen[, header_name[, continuation_ws[, errors]]]]]])
+
+ Create a MIME-compliant header that can contain strings in different character
+ sets.
+
+ Optional *s* is the initial header value. If ``None`` (the default), the
+ initial header value is not set. You can later append to the header with
+ :meth:`append` method calls. *s* may be a byte string or a Unicode string, but
+ see the :meth:`append` documentation for semantics.
+
+ Optional *charset* serves two purposes: it has the same meaning as the *charset*
+ argument to the :meth:`append` method. It also sets the default character set
+ for all subsequent :meth:`append` calls that omit the *charset* argument. If
+ *charset* is not provided in the constructor (the default), the ``us-ascii``
+ character set is used both as *s*'s initial charset and as the default for
+ subsequent :meth:`append` calls.
+
+ The maximum line length can be specified explicitly via *maxlinelen*. For
+ splitting the first line to a shorter value (to account for the field header
+ which isn't included in *s*, e.g. :mailheader:`Subject`) pass in the name of the
+ field in *header_name*. The default *maxlinelen* is 76, and the default value
+ for *header_name* is ``None``, meaning it is not taken into account for the
+ first line of a long, split header.
+
+ Optional *continuation_ws* must be :rfc:`2822`\ -compliant folding whitespace,
+ and is usually either a space or a hard tab character. This character will be
+ prepended to continuation lines. *continuation_ws* defaults to a single
+ space character (" ").
+
+ Optional *errors* is passed straight through to the :meth:`append` method.
+
+
+ .. method:: append(s[, charset[, errors]])
+
+ Append the string *s* to the MIME header.
+
+ Optional *charset*, if given, should be a :class:`~email.charset.Charset`
+ instance (see :mod:`email.charset`) or the name of a character set, which
+ will be converted to a :class:`~email.charset.Charset` instance. A value
+ of ``None`` (the default) means that the *charset* given in the constructor
+ is used.
+
+ *s* may be a byte string or a Unicode string. If it is a byte string
+ (i.e. ``isinstance(s, str)`` is true), then *charset* is the encoding of
+ that byte string, and a :exc:`UnicodeError` will be raised if the string
+ cannot be decoded with that character set.
+
+ If *s* is a Unicode string, then *charset* is a hint specifying the
+ character set of the characters in the string. In this case, when
+ producing an :rfc:`2822`\ -compliant header using :rfc:`2047` rules, the
+ Unicode string will be encoded using the following charsets in order:
+ ``us-ascii``, the *charset* hint, ``utf-8``. The first character set to
+ not provoke a :exc:`UnicodeError` is used.
+
+ Optional *errors* is passed through to any :func:`unicode` or
+ :func:`ustr.encode` call, and defaults to "strict".
+
+
+ .. method:: encode([splitchars])
+
+ Encode a message header into an RFC-compliant format, possibly wrapping
+ long lines and encapsulating non-ASCII parts in base64 or quoted-printable
+ encodings. Optional *splitchars* is a string containing characters to
+ split long ASCII lines on, in rough support of :rfc:`2822`'s *highest
+ level syntactic breaks*. This doesn't affect :rfc:`2047` encoded lines.
+
+ The :class:`Header` class also provides a number of methods to support
+ standard operators and built-in functions.
+
+
+ .. method:: __str__()
+
+ A synonym for :meth:`Header.encode`. Useful for ``str(aHeader)``.
+
+
+ .. method:: __unicode__()
+
+ A helper for the built-in :func:`unicode` function. Returns the header as
+ a Unicode string.
+
+
+ .. method:: __eq__(other)
+
+ This method allows you to compare two :class:`Header` instances for
+ equality.
+
+
+ .. method:: __ne__(other)
+
+ This method allows you to compare two :class:`Header` instances for
+ inequality.
+
+The :mod:`email.header` module also provides the following convenient functions.
+
+
+.. function:: decode_header(header)
+
+ Decode a message header value without converting the character set. The header
+ value is in *header*.
+
+ This function returns a list of ``(decoded_string, charset)`` pairs containing
+ each of the decoded parts of the header. *charset* is ``None`` for non-encoded
+ parts of the header, otherwise a lower case string containing the name of the
+ character set specified in the encoded string.
+
+ Here's an example::
+
+ >>> from email.header import decode_header
+ >>> decode_header('=?iso-8859-1?q?p=F6stal?=')
+ [('p\xf6stal', 'iso-8859-1')]
+
+
+.. function:: make_header(decoded_seq[, maxlinelen[, header_name[, continuation_ws]]])
+
+ Create a :class:`Header` instance from a sequence of pairs as returned by
+ :func:`decode_header`.
+
+ :func:`decode_header` takes a header value string and returns a sequence of
+ pairs of the format ``(decoded_string, charset)`` where *charset* is the name of
+ the character set.
+
+ This function takes one of those sequence of pairs and returns a :class:`Header`
+ instance. Optional *maxlinelen*, *header_name*, and *continuation_ws* are as in
+ the :class:`Header` constructor.

+:mod:`email.iterators`: Iterators
+---------------------------------
+
+.. module:: email.iterators
+ :synopsis: Iterate over a message object tree.
+
+
+Iterating over a message object tree is fairly easy with the
+:meth:`Message.walk` method. The :mod:`email.iterators` module provides some
+useful higher level iterations over message object trees.
+
+
+.. function:: body_line_iterator(msg[, decode])
+
+ This iterates over all the payloads in all the subparts of *msg*, returning the
+ string payloads line-by-line. It skips over all the subpart headers, and it
+ skips over any subpart with a payload that isn't a Python string. This is
+ somewhat equivalent to reading the flat text representation of the message from
+ a file using :meth:`readline`, skipping over all the intervening headers.
+
+ Optional *decode* is passed through to :meth:`Message.get_payload`.
+
+
+.. function:: typed_subpart_iterator(msg[, maintype[, subtype]])
+
+ This iterates over all the subparts of *msg*, returning only those subparts that
+ match the MIME type specified by *maintype* and *subtype*.
+
+ Note that *subtype* is optional; if omitted, then subpart MIME type matching is
+ done only with the main type. *maintype* is optional too; it defaults to
+ :mimetype:`text`.
+
+ Thus, by default :func:`typed_subpart_iterator` returns each subpart that has a
+ MIME type of :mimetype:`text/\*`.
+
+The following function has been added as a useful debugging tool. It should
+*not* be considered part of the supported public interface for the package.
+
+
+.. function:: _structure(msg[, fp[, level]])
+
+ Prints an indented representation of the content types of the message object
+ structure. For example::
+
+ >>> msg = email.message_from_file(somefile)
+ >>> _structure(msg)
+ multipart/mixed
+ text/plain
+ text/plain
+ multipart/digest
+ message/rfc822
+ text/plain
+ message/rfc822
+ text/plain
+ message/rfc822
+ text/plain
+ message/rfc822
+ text/plain
+ message/rfc822
+ text/plain
+ text/plain
+
+ Optional *fp* is a file-like object to print the output to. It must be suitable
+ for Python's extended print statement. *level* is used internally.

+:mod:`email.message`: Representing an email message
+---------------------------------------------------
+
+.. module:: email.message
+ :synopsis: The base class representing email messages.
+
+
+The central class in the :mod:`email` package is the :class:`Message` class,
+imported from the :mod:`email.message` module. It is the base class for the
+:mod:`email` object model. :class:`Message` provides the core functionality for
+setting and querying header fields, and for accessing message bodies.
+
+Conceptually, a :class:`Message` object consists of *headers* and *payloads*.
+Headers are :rfc:`2822` style field names and values where the field name and
+value are separated by a colon. The colon is not part of either the field name
+or the field value.
+
+Headers are stored and returned in case-preserving form but are matched
+case-insensitively. There may also be a single envelope header, also known as
+the *Unix-From* header or the ``From_`` header. The payload is either a string
+in the case of simple message objects or a list of :class:`Message` objects for
+MIME container documents (e.g. :mimetype:`multipart/\*` and
+:mimetype:`message/rfc822`).
+
+:class:`Message` objects provide a mapping style interface for accessing the
+message headers, and an explicit interface for accessing both the headers and
+the payload. It provides convenience methods for generating a flat text
+representation of the message object tree, for accessing commonly used header
+parameters, and for recursively walking over the object tree.
+
+Here are the methods of the :class:`Message` class:
+
+
+.. class:: Message()
+
+ The constructor takes no arguments.
+
+
+ .. method:: as_string([unixfrom])
+
+ Return the entire message flattened as a string. When optional *unixfrom*
+ is ``True``, the envelope header is included in the returned string.
+ *unixfrom* defaults to ``False``. Flattening the message may trigger
+ changes to the :class:`Message` if defaults need to be filled in to
+ complete the transformation to a string (for example, MIME boundaries may
+ be generated or modified).
+
+ Note that this method is provided as a convenience and may not always
+ format the message the way you want. For example, by default it mangles
+ lines that begin with ``From``. For more flexibility, instantiate a
+ :class:`~email.generator.Generator` instance and use its :meth:`flatten`
+ method directly. For example::
+
+ from cStringIO import StringIO
+ from email.generator import Generator
+ fp = StringIO()
+ g = Generator(fp, mangle_from_=False, maxheaderlen=60)
+ g.flatten(msg)
+ text = fp.getvalue()
+
+
+ .. method:: __str__()
+
+ Equivalent to ``as_string(unixfrom=True)``.
+
+
+ .. method:: is_multipart()
+
+ Return ``True`` if the message's payload is a list of sub-\
+ :class:`Message` objects, otherwise return ``False``. When
+ :meth:`is_multipart` returns False, the payload should be a string object.
+
+
+ .. method:: set_unixfrom(unixfrom)
+
+ Set the message's envelope header to *unixfrom*, which should be a string.
+
+
+ .. method:: get_unixfrom()
+
+ Return the message's envelope header. Defaults to ``None`` if the
+ envelope header was never set.
+
+
+ .. method:: attach(payload)
+
+ Add the given *payload* to the current payload, which must be ``None`` or
+ a list of :class:`Message` objects before the call. After the call, the
+ payload will always be a list of :class:`Message` objects. If you want to
+ set the payload to a scalar object (e.g. a string), use
+ :meth:`set_payload` instead.
+
+
+ .. method:: get_payload([i[, decode]])
+
+ Return the current payload, which will be a list of
+ :class:`Message` objects when :meth:`is_multipart` is ``True``, or a
+ string when :meth:`is_multipart` is ``False``. If the payload is a list
+ and you mutate the list object, you modify the message's payload in place.
+
+ With optional argument *i*, :meth:`get_payload` will return the *i*-th
+ element of the payload, counting from zero, if :meth:`is_multipart` is
+ ``True``. An :exc:`IndexError` will be raised if *i* is less than 0 or
+ greater than or equal to the number of items in the payload. If the
+ payload is a string (i.e. :meth:`is_multipart` is ``False``) and *i* is
+ given, a :exc:`TypeError` is raised.
+
+ Optional *decode* is a flag indicating whether the payload should be
+ decoded or not, according to the :mailheader:`Content-Transfer-Encoding`
+ header. When ``True`` and the message is not a multipart, the payload will
+ be decoded if this header's value is ``quoted-printable`` or ``base64``.
+ If some other encoding is used, or :mailheader:`Content-Transfer-Encoding`
+ header is missing, or if the payload has bogus base64 data, the payload is
+ returned as-is (undecoded). If the message is a multipart and the
+ *decode* flag is ``True``, then ``None`` is returned. The default for
+ *decode* is ``False``.
+
+
+ .. method:: set_payload(payload[, charset])
+
+ Set the entire message object's payload to *payload*. It is the client's
+ responsibility to ensure the payload invariants. Optional *charset* sets
+ the message's default character set; see :meth:`set_charset` for details.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.2.2
+ *charset* argument added.
+
+
+ .. method:: set_charset(charset)
+
+ Set the character set of the payload to *charset*, which can either be a
+ :class:`~email.charset.Charset` instance (see :mod:`email.charset`), a
+ string naming a character set, or ``None``. If it is a string, it will
+ be converted to a :class:`~email.charset.Charset` instance. If *charset*
+ is ``None``, the ``charset`` parameter will be removed from the
+ :mailheader:`Content-Type` header (the message will not be otherwise
+ modified). Anything else will generate a :exc:`TypeError`.
+
+ If there is no existing :mailheader:`MIME-Version` header one will be
+ added. If there is no existing :mailheader:`Content-Type` header, one
+ will be added with a value of :mimetype:`text/plain`. Whether the
+ :mailheader:`Content-Type` header already exists or not, its ``charset``
+ parameter will be set to *charset.output_charset*. If
+ *charset.input_charset* and *charset.output_charset* differ, the payload
+ will be re-encoded to the *output_charset*. If there is no existing
+ :mailheader:`Content-Transfer-Encoding` header, then the payload will be
+ transfer-encoded, if needed, using the specified
+ :class:`~email.charset.Charset`, and a header with the appropriate value
+ will be added. If a :mailheader:`Content-Transfer-Encoding` header
+ already exists, the payload is assumed to already be correctly encoded
+ using that :mailheader:`Content-Transfer-Encoding` and is not modified.
+
+ The message will be assumed to be of type :mimetype:`text/\*`, with the
+ payload either in unicode or encoded with *charset.input_charset*.
+ It will be encoded or converted to *charset.output_charset*
+ and transfer encoded properly, if needed, when generating the plain text
+ representation of the message. MIME headers (:mailheader:`MIME-Version`,
+ :mailheader:`Content-Type`, :mailheader:`Content-Transfer-Encoding`) will
+ be added as needed.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2.2
+
+
+ .. method:: get_charset()
+
+ Return the :class:`~email.charset.Charset` instance associated with the
+ message's payload.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2.2
+
+ The following methods implement a mapping-like interface for accessing the
+ message's :rfc:`2822` headers. Note that there are some semantic differences
+ between these methods and a normal mapping (i.e. dictionary) interface. For
+ example, in a dictionary there are no duplicate keys, but here there may be
+ duplicate message headers. Also, in dictionaries there is no guaranteed
+ order to the keys returned by :meth:`keys`, but in a :class:`Message` object,
+ headers are always returned in the order they appeared in the original
+ message, or were added to the message later. Any header deleted and then
+ re-added are always appended to the end of the header list.
+
+ These semantic differences are intentional and are biased toward maximal
+ convenience.
+
+ Note that in all cases, any envelope header present in the message is not
+ included in the mapping interface.
+
+
+ .. method:: __len__()
+
+ Return the total number of headers, including duplicates.
+
+
+ .. method:: __contains__(name)
+
+ Return true if the message object has a field named *name*. Matching is
+ done case-insensitively and *name* should not include the trailing colon.
+ Used for the ``in`` operator, e.g.::
+
+ if 'message-id' in myMessage:
+ print 'Message-ID:', myMessage['message-id']
+
+
+ .. method:: __getitem__(name)
+
+ Return the value of the named header field. *name* should not include the
+ colon field separator. If the header is missing, ``None`` is returned; a
+ :exc:`KeyError` is never raised.
+
+ Note that if the named field appears more than once in the message's
+ headers, exactly which of those field values will be returned is
+ undefined. Use the :meth:`get_all` method to get the values of all the
+ extant named headers.
+
+
+ .. method:: __setitem__(name, val)
+
+ Add a header to the message with field name *name* and value *val*. The
+ field is appended to the end of the message's existing fields.
+
+ Note that this does *not* overwrite or delete any existing header with the same
+ name. If you want to ensure that the new header is the only one present in the
+ message with field name *name*, delete the field first, e.g.::
+
+ del msg['subject']
+ msg['subject'] = 'Python roolz!'
+
+
+ .. method:: __delitem__(name)
+
+ Delete all occurrences of the field with name *name* from the message's
+ headers. No exception is raised if the named field isn't present in the headers.
+
+
+ .. method:: has_key(name)
+
+ Return true if the message contains a header field named *name*, otherwise
+ return false.
+
+
+ .. method:: keys()
+
+ Return a list of all the message's header field names.
+
+
+ .. method:: values()
+
+ Return a list of all the message's field values.
+
+
+ .. method:: items()
+
+ Return a list of 2-tuples containing all the message's field headers and
+ values.
+
+
+ .. method:: get(name[, failobj])
+
+ Return the value of the named header field. This is identical to
+ :meth:`__getitem__` except that optional *failobj* is returned if the
+ named header is missing (defaults to ``None``).
+
+ Here are some additional useful methods:
+
+
+ .. method:: get_all(name[, failobj])
+
+ Return a list of all the values for the field named *name*. If there are
+ no such named headers in the message, *failobj* is returned (defaults to
+ ``None``).
+
+
+ .. method:: add_header(_name, _value, **_params)
+
+ Extended header setting. This method is similar to :meth:`__setitem__`
+ except that additional header parameters can be provided as keyword
+ arguments. *_name* is the header field to add and *_value* is the
+ *primary* value for the header.
+
+ For each item in the keyword argument dictionary *_params*, the key is
+ taken as the parameter name, with underscores converted to dashes (since
+ dashes are illegal in Python identifiers). Normally, the parameter will
+ be added as ``key="value"`` unless the value is ``None``, in which case
+ only the key will be added. If the value contains non-ASCII characters,
+ it must be specified as a three tuple in the format
+ ``(CHARSET, LANGUAGE, VALUE)``, where ``CHARSET`` is a string naming the
+ charset to be used to encode the value, ``LANGUAGE`` can usually be set
+ to ``None`` or the empty string (see :RFC:`2231` for other possibilities),
+ and ``VALUE`` is the string value containing non-ASCII code points.
+
+ Here's an example::
+
+ msg.add_header('Content-Disposition', 'attachment', filename='bud.gif')
+
+ This will add a header that looks like ::
+
+ Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="bud.gif"
+
+ An example with non-ASCII characters::
+
+ msg.add_header('Content-Disposition', 'attachment',
+ filename=('iso-8859-1', '', 'Fußballer.ppt'))
+
+ Which produces ::
+
+ Content-Disposition: attachment; filename*="iso-8859-1''Fu%DFballer.ppt"
+
+
+ .. method:: replace_header(_name, _value)
+
+ Replace a header. Replace the first header found in the message that
+ matches *_name*, retaining header order and field name case. If no
+ matching header was found, a :exc:`KeyError` is raised.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2.2
+
+
+ .. method:: get_content_type()
+
+ Return the message's content type. The returned string is coerced to
+ lower case of the form :mimetype:`maintype/subtype`. If there was no
+ :mailheader:`Content-Type` header in the message the default type as given
+ by :meth:`get_default_type` will be returned. Since according to
+ :rfc:`2045`, messages always have a default type, :meth:`get_content_type`
+ will always return a value.
+
+ :rfc:`2045` defines a message's default type to be :mimetype:`text/plain`
+ unless it appears inside a :mimetype:`multipart/digest` container, in
+ which case it would be :mimetype:`message/rfc822`. If the
+ :mailheader:`Content-Type` header has an invalid type specification,
+ :rfc:`2045` mandates that the default type be :mimetype:`text/plain`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2.2
+
+
+ .. method:: get_content_maintype()
+
+ Return the message's main content type. This is the :mimetype:`maintype`
+ part of the string returned by :meth:`get_content_type`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2.2
+
+
+ .. method:: get_content_subtype()
+
+ Return the message's sub-content type. This is the :mimetype:`subtype`
+ part of the string returned by :meth:`get_content_type`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2.2
+
+
+ .. method:: get_default_type()
+
+ Return the default content type. Most messages have a default content
+ type of :mimetype:`text/plain`, except for messages that are subparts of
+ :mimetype:`multipart/digest` containers. Such subparts have a default
+ content type of :mimetype:`message/rfc822`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2.2
+
+
+ .. method:: set_default_type(ctype)
+
+ Set the default content type. *ctype* should either be
+ :mimetype:`text/plain` or :mimetype:`message/rfc822`, although this is not
+ enforced. The default content type is not stored in the
+ :mailheader:`Content-Type` header.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2.2
+
+
+ .. method:: get_params([failobj[, header[, unquote]]])
+
+ Return the message's :mailheader:`Content-Type` parameters, as a list.
+ The elements of the returned list are 2-tuples of key/value pairs, as
+ split on the ``'='`` sign. The left hand side of the ``'='`` is the key,
+ while the right hand side is the value. If there is no ``'='`` sign in
+ the parameter the value is the empty string, otherwise the value is as
+ described in :meth:`get_param` and is unquoted if optional *unquote* is
+ ``True`` (the default).
+
+ Optional *failobj* is the object to return if there is no
+ :mailheader:`Content-Type` header. Optional *header* is the header to
+ search instead of :mailheader:`Content-Type`.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.2.2
+ *unquote* argument added.
+
+
+ .. method:: get_param(param[, failobj[, header[, unquote]]])
+
+ Return the value of the :mailheader:`Content-Type` header's parameter
+ *param* as a string. If the message has no :mailheader:`Content-Type`
+ header or if there is no such parameter, then *failobj* is returned
+ (defaults to ``None``).
+
+ Optional *header* if given, specifies the message header to use instead of
+ :mailheader:`Content-Type`.
+
+ Parameter keys are always compared case insensitively. The return value
+ can either be a string, or a 3-tuple if the parameter was :rfc:`2231`
+ encoded. When it's a 3-tuple, the elements of the value are of the form
+ ``(CHARSET, LANGUAGE, VALUE)``. Note that both ``CHARSET`` and
+ ``LANGUAGE`` can be ``None``, in which case you should consider ``VALUE``
+ to be encoded in the ``us-ascii`` charset. You can usually ignore
+ ``LANGUAGE``.
+
+ If your application doesn't care whether the parameter was encoded as in
+ :rfc:`2231`, you can collapse the parameter value by calling
+ :func:`email.utils.collapse_rfc2231_value`, passing in the return value
+ from :meth:`get_param`. This will return a suitably decoded Unicode
+ string when the value is a tuple, or the original string unquoted if it
+ isn't. For example::
+
+ rawparam = msg.get_param('foo')
+ param = email.utils.collapse_rfc2231_value(rawparam)
+
+ In any case, the parameter value (either the returned string, or the
+ ``VALUE`` item in the 3-tuple) is always unquoted, unless *unquote* is set
+ to ``False``.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.2.2
+ *unquote* argument added, and 3-tuple return value possible.
+
+
+ .. method:: set_param(param, value[, header[, requote[, charset[, language]]]])
+
+ Set a parameter in the :mailheader:`Content-Type` header. If the
+ parameter already exists in the header, its value will be replaced with
+ *value*. If the :mailheader:`Content-Type` header as not yet been defined
+ for this message, it will be set to :mimetype:`text/plain` and the new
+ parameter value will be appended as per :rfc:`2045`.
+
+ Optional *header* specifies an alternative header to
+ :mailheader:`Content-Type`, and all parameters will be quoted as necessary
+ unless optional *requote* is ``False`` (the default is ``True``).
+
+ If optional *charset* is specified, the parameter will be encoded
+ according to :rfc:`2231`. Optional *language* specifies the RFC 2231
+ language, defaulting to the empty string. Both *charset* and *language*
+ should be strings.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2.2
+
+
+ .. method:: del_param(param[, header[, requote]])
+
+ Remove the given parameter completely from the :mailheader:`Content-Type`
+ header. The header will be re-written in place without the parameter or
+ its value. All values will be quoted as necessary unless *requote* is
+ ``False`` (the default is ``True``). Optional *header* specifies an
+ alternative to :mailheader:`Content-Type`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2.2
+
+
+ .. method:: set_type(type[, header][, requote])
+
+ Set the main type and subtype for the :mailheader:`Content-Type`
+ header. *type* must be a string in the form :mimetype:`maintype/subtype`,
+ otherwise a :exc:`ValueError` is raised.
+
+ This method replaces the :mailheader:`Content-Type` header, keeping all
+ the parameters in place. If *requote* is ``False``, this leaves the
+ existing header's quoting as is, otherwise the parameters will be quoted
+ (the default).
+
+ An alternative header can be specified in the *header* argument. When the
+ :mailheader:`Content-Type` header is set a :mailheader:`MIME-Version`
+ header is also added.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2.2
+
+
+ .. method:: get_filename([failobj])
+
+ Return the value of the ``filename`` parameter of the
+ :mailheader:`Content-Disposition` header of the message. If the header
+ does not have a ``filename`` parameter, this method falls back to looking
+ for the ``name`` parameter on the :mailheader:`Content-Type` header. If
+ neither is found, or the header is missing, then *failobj* is returned.
+ The returned string will always be unquoted as per
+ :func:`email.utils.unquote`.
+
+
+ .. method:: get_boundary([failobj])
+
+ Return the value of the ``boundary`` parameter of the
+ :mailheader:`Content-Type` header of the message, or *failobj* if either
+ the header is missing, or has no ``boundary`` parameter. The returned
+ string will always be unquoted as per :func:`email.utils.unquote`.
+
+
+ .. method:: set_boundary(boundary)
+
+ Set the ``boundary`` parameter of the :mailheader:`Content-Type` header to
+ *boundary*. :meth:`set_boundary` will always quote *boundary* if
+ necessary. A :exc:`HeaderParseError` is raised if the message object has
+ no :mailheader:`Content-Type` header.
+
+ Note that using this method is subtly different than deleting the old
+ :mailheader:`Content-Type` header and adding a new one with the new
+ boundary via :meth:`add_header`, because :meth:`set_boundary` preserves
+ the order of the :mailheader:`Content-Type` header in the list of
+ headers. However, it does *not* preserve any continuation lines which may
+ have been present in the original :mailheader:`Content-Type` header.
+
+
+ .. method:: get_content_charset([failobj])
+
+ Return the ``charset`` parameter of the :mailheader:`Content-Type` header,
+ coerced to lower case. If there is no :mailheader:`Content-Type` header, or if
+ that header has no ``charset`` parameter, *failobj* is returned.
+
+ Note that this method differs from :meth:`get_charset` which returns the
+ :class:`~email.charset.Charset` instance for the default encoding of the message body.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2.2
+
+
+ .. method:: get_charsets([failobj])
+
+ Return a list containing the character set names in the message. If the
+ message is a :mimetype:`multipart`, then the list will contain one element
+ for each subpart in the payload, otherwise, it will be a list of length 1.
+
+ Each item in the list will be a string which is the value of the
+ ``charset`` parameter in the :mailheader:`Content-Type` header for the
+ represented subpart. However, if the subpart has no
+ :mailheader:`Content-Type` header, no ``charset`` parameter, or is not of
+ the :mimetype:`text` main MIME type, then that item in the returned list
+ will be *failobj*.
+
+
+ .. method:: walk()
+
+ The :meth:`walk` method is an all-purpose generator which can be used to
+ iterate over all the parts and subparts of a message object tree, in
+ depth-first traversal order. You will typically use :meth:`walk` as the
+ iterator in a ``for`` loop; each iteration returns the next subpart.
+
+ Here's an example that prints the MIME type of every part of a multipart
+ message structure::
+
+ >>> for part in msg.walk():
+ ... print part.get_content_type()
+ multipart/report
+ text/plain
+ message/delivery-status
+ text/plain
+ text/plain
+ message/rfc822
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ The previously deprecated methods :meth:`get_type`, :meth:`get_main_type`, and
+ :meth:`get_subtype` were removed.
+
+ :class:`Message` objects can also optionally contain two instance attributes,
+ which can be used when generating the plain text of a MIME message.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: preamble
+
+ The format of a MIME document allows for some text between the blank line
+ following the headers, and the first multipart boundary string. Normally,
+ this text is never visible in a MIME-aware mail reader because it falls
+ outside the standard MIME armor. However, when viewing the raw text of
+ the message, or when viewing the message in a non-MIME aware reader, this
+ text can become visible.
+
+ The *preamble* attribute contains this leading extra-armor text for MIME
+ documents. When the :class:`~email.parser.Parser` discovers some text
+ after the headers but before the first boundary string, it assigns this
+ text to the message's *preamble* attribute. When the
+ :class:`~email.generator.Generator` is writing out the plain text
+ representation of a MIME message, and it finds the
+ message has a *preamble* attribute, it will write this text in the area
+ between the headers and the first boundary. See :mod:`email.parser` and
+ :mod:`email.generator` for details.
+
+ Note that if the message object has no preamble, the *preamble* attribute
+ will be ``None``.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: epilogue
+
+ The *epilogue* attribute acts the same way as the *preamble* attribute,
+ except that it contains text that appears between the last boundary and
+ the end of the message.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ You do not need to set the epilogue to the empty string in order for the
+ :class:`Generator` to print a newline at the end of the file.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: defects
+
+ The *defects* attribute contains a list of all the problems found when
+ parsing this message. See :mod:`email.errors` for a detailed description
+ of the possible parsing defects.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4

+:mod:`email.mime`: Creating email and MIME objects from scratch
+---------------------------------------------------------------
+
+.. module:: email.mime
+ :synopsis: Build MIME messages.
+
+
+Ordinarily, you get a message object structure by passing a file or some text to
+a parser, which parses the text and returns the root message object. However
+you can also build a complete message structure from scratch, or even individual
+:class:`~email.message.Message` objects by hand. In fact, you can also take an
+existing structure and add new :class:`~email.message.Message` objects, move them
+around, etc. This makes a very convenient interface for slicing-and-dicing MIME
+messages.
+
+You can create a new object structure by creating :class:`~email.message.Message`
+instances, adding attachments and all the appropriate headers manually. For MIME
+messages though, the :mod:`email` package provides some convenient subclasses to
+make things easier.
+
+Here are the classes:
+
+.. currentmodule:: email.mime.base
+
+.. class:: MIMEBase(_maintype, _subtype, **_params)
+
+ Module: :mod:`email.mime.base`
+
+ This is the base class for all the MIME-specific subclasses of
+ :class:`~email.message.Message`. Ordinarily you won't create instances
+ specifically of :class:`MIMEBase`, although you could. :class:`MIMEBase`
+ is provided primarily as a convenient base class for more specific
+ MIME-aware subclasses.
+
+ *_maintype* is the :mailheader:`Content-Type` major type (e.g. :mimetype:`text`
+ or :mimetype:`image`), and *_subtype* is the :mailheader:`Content-Type` minor
+ type (e.g. :mimetype:`plain` or :mimetype:`gif`). *_params* is a parameter
+ key/value dictionary and is passed directly to :meth:`Message.add_header`.
+
+ The :class:`MIMEBase` class always adds a :mailheader:`Content-Type` header
+ (based on *_maintype*, *_subtype*, and *_params*), and a
+ :mailheader:`MIME-Version` header (always set to ``1.0``).
+
+
+.. currentmodule:: email.mime.nonmultipart
+
+.. class:: MIMENonMultipart()
+
+ Module: :mod:`email.mime.nonmultipart`
+
+ A subclass of :class:`~email.mime.base.MIMEBase`, this is an intermediate base
+ class for MIME messages that are not :mimetype:`multipart`. The primary
+ purpose of this class is to prevent the use of the :meth:`attach` method,
+ which only makes sense for :mimetype:`multipart` messages. If :meth:`attach`
+ is called, a :exc:`~email.errors.MultipartConversionError` exception is raised.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2.2
+
+
+.. currentmodule:: email.mime.multipart
+
+.. class:: MIMEMultipart([_subtype[, boundary[, _subparts[, _params]]]])
+
+ Module: :mod:`email.mime.multipart`
+
+ A subclass of :class:`~email.mime.base.MIMEBase`, this is an intermediate base
+ class for MIME messages that are :mimetype:`multipart`. Optional *_subtype*
+ defaults to :mimetype:`mixed`, but can be used to specify the subtype of the
+ message. A :mailheader:`Content-Type` header of :mimetype:`multipart/_subtype`
+ will be added to the message object. A :mailheader:`MIME-Version` header will
+ also be added.
+
+ Optional *boundary* is the multipart boundary string. When ``None`` (the
+ default), the boundary is calculated when needed (for example, when the
+ message is serialized).
+
+ *_subparts* is a sequence of initial subparts for the payload. It must be
+ possible to convert this sequence to a list. You can always attach new subparts
+ to the message by using the :meth:`Message.attach` method.
+
+ Additional parameters for the :mailheader:`Content-Type` header are taken from
+ the keyword arguments, or passed into the *_params* argument, which is a keyword
+ dictionary.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2.2
+
+
+.. currentmodule:: email.mime.application
+
+.. class:: MIMEApplication(_data[, _subtype[, _encoder[, **_params]]])
+
+ Module: :mod:`email.mime.application`
+
+ A subclass of :class:`~email.mime.nonmultipart.MIMENonMultipart`, the
+ :class:`MIMEApplication` class is used to represent MIME message objects of
+ major type :mimetype:`application`. *_data* is a string containing the raw
+ byte data. Optional *_subtype* specifies the MIME subtype and defaults to
+ :mimetype:`octet-stream`.
+
+ Optional *_encoder* is a callable (i.e. function) which will perform the actual
+ encoding of the data for transport. This callable takes one argument, which is
+ the :class:`MIMEApplication` instance. It should use :meth:`get_payload` and
+ :meth:`set_payload` to change the payload to encoded form. It should also add
+ any :mailheader:`Content-Transfer-Encoding` or other headers to the message
+ object as necessary. The default encoding is base64. See the
+ :mod:`email.encoders` module for a list of the built-in encoders.
+
+ *_params* are passed straight through to the base class constructor.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. currentmodule:: email.mime.audio
+
+.. class:: MIMEAudio(_audiodata[, _subtype[, _encoder[, **_params]]])
+

+
+ A subclass of :class:`~email.mime.nonmultipart.MIMENonMultipart`, the
+ :class:`MIMEAudio` class is used to create MIME message objects of major type
+ :mimetype:`audio`. *_audiodata* is a string containing the raw audio data. If
+ this data can be decoded by the standard Python module :mod:`sndhdr`, then the
+ subtype will be automatically included in the :mailheader:`Content-Type` header.
+ Otherwise you can explicitly specify the audio subtype via the *_subtype*
+ parameter. If the minor type could not be guessed and *_subtype* was not given,
+ then :exc:`TypeError` is raised.
+
+ Optional *_encoder* is a callable (i.e. function) which will perform the actual
+ encoding of the audio data for transport. This callable takes one argument,
+ which is the :class:`MIMEAudio` instance. It should use :meth:`get_payload` and
+ :meth:`set_payload` to change the payload to encoded form. It should also add

+
+ *_params* are passed straight through to the :class:`~email.mime.base.MIMEBase`
+ constructor.
+
+
+.. currentmodule:: email.mime.message
+
+.. class:: MIMEMessage(_msg[, _subtype])
+
+ Module: :mod:`email.mime.message`
+
+ A subclass of :class:`~email.mime.nonmultipart.MIMENonMultipart`, the
+ :class:`MIMEMessage` class is used to create MIME objects of main type
+ :mimetype:`message`. *_msg* is used as the payload, and must be an instance
+ of class :class:`~email.message.Message` (or a subclass thereof), otherwise
+ a :exc:`TypeError` is raised.
+
+ Optional *_subtype* sets the subtype of the message; it defaults to
+ :mimetype:`rfc822`.
+

+

+
+ Module: :mod:`email.mime.text`
+
+ A subclass of :class:`~email.mime.nonmultipart.MIMENonMultipart`, the
+ :class:`MIMEText` class is used to create MIME objects of major type
+ :mimetype:`text`. *_text* is the string for the payload. *_subtype* is the
+ minor type and defaults to :mimetype:`plain`. *_charset* is the character
+ set of the text and is passed as a parameter to the
+ :class:`~email.mime.nonmultipart.MIMENonMultipart` constructor; it defaults
+ to ``us-ascii``. If *_text* is unicode, it is encoded using the
+ *output_charset* of *_charset*, otherwise it is used as-is.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ The previously deprecated *_encoding* argument has been removed. Content
+ Transfer Encoding now happens implicitly based on the *_charset*
+ argument.
+
+ Unless the ``_charset`` parameter is explicitly set to ``None``, the
+ MIMEText object created will have both a :mailheader:`Content-Type` header
+ with a ``charset`` parameter, and a :mailheader:`Content-Transfer-Endcoding`
+ header. This means that a subsequent ``set_payload`` call will not result
+ in an encoded payload, even if a charset is passed in the ``set_payload``
+ command. You can "reset" this behavior by deleting the
+ ``Content-Transfer-Encoding`` header, after which a ``set_payload`` call
+ will automatically encode the new payload (and add a new
+ :mailheader:`Content-Transfer-Encoding` header).

+:mod:`email.parser`: Parsing email messages
+-------------------------------------------
+
+.. module:: email.parser
+ :synopsis: Parse flat text email messages to produce a message object structure.
+
+
+Message object structures can be created in one of two ways: they can be created
+from whole cloth by instantiating :class:`~email.message.Message` objects and
+stringing them together via :meth:`attach` and :meth:`set_payload` calls, or they
+can be created by parsing a flat text representation of the email message.
+
+The :mod:`email` package provides a standard parser that understands most email
+document structures, including MIME documents. You can pass the parser a string
+or a file object, and the parser will return to you the root
+:class:`~email.message.Message` instance of the object structure. For simple,
+non-MIME messages the payload of this root object will likely be a string
+containing the text of the message. For MIME messages, the root object will
+return ``True`` from its :meth:`is_multipart` method, and the subparts can be
+accessed via the :meth:`get_payload` and :meth:`walk` methods.
+
+There are actually two parser interfaces available for use, the classic
+:class:`Parser` API and the incremental :class:`FeedParser` API. The classic
+:class:`Parser` API is fine if you have the entire text of the message in memory
+as a string, or if the entire message lives in a file on the file system.
+:class:`FeedParser` is more appropriate for when you're reading the message from
+a stream which might block waiting for more input (e.g. reading an email message
+from a socket). The :class:`FeedParser` can consume and parse the message
+incrementally, and only returns the root object when you close the parser [#]_.
+
+Note that the parser can be extended in limited ways, and of course you can
+implement your own parser completely from scratch. There is no magical
+connection between the :mod:`email` package's bundled parser and the
+:class:`~email.message.Message` class, so your custom parser can create message
+object trees any way it finds necessary.
+
+
+FeedParser API
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+The :class:`FeedParser`, imported from the :mod:`email.feedparser` module,
+provides an API that is conducive to incremental parsing of email messages, such
+as would be necessary when reading the text of an email message from a source
+that can block (e.g. a socket). The :class:`FeedParser` can of course be used
+to parse an email message fully contained in a string or a file, but the classic
+:class:`Parser` API may be more convenient for such use cases. The semantics
+and results of the two parser APIs are identical.
+
+The :class:`FeedParser`'s API is simple; you create an instance, feed it a bunch
+of text until there's no more to feed it, then close the parser to retrieve the
+root message object. The :class:`FeedParser` is extremely accurate when parsing
+standards-compliant messages, and it does a very good job of parsing
+non-compliant messages, providing information about how a message was deemed
+broken. It will populate a message object's *defects* attribute with a list of
+any problems it found in a message. See the :mod:`email.errors` module for the
+list of defects that it can find.
+
+Here is the API for the :class:`FeedParser`:
+
+
+.. class:: FeedParser([_factory])
+
+ Create a :class:`FeedParser` instance. Optional *_factory* is a no-argument
+ callable that will be called whenever a new message object is needed. It
+ defaults to the :class:`email.message.Message` class.
+
+
+ .. method:: feed(data)
+
+ Feed the :class:`FeedParser` some more data. *data* should be a string
+ containing one or more lines. The lines can be partial and the
+ :class:`FeedParser` will stitch such partial lines together properly. The
+ lines in the string can have any of the common three line endings,
+ carriage return, newline, or carriage return and newline (they can even be
+ mixed).
+
+
+ .. method:: close()
+
+ Closing a :class:`FeedParser` completes the parsing of all previously fed
+ data, and returns the root message object. It is undefined what happens
+ if you feed more data to a closed :class:`FeedParser`.
+
+
+Parser class API
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The :class:`Parser` class, imported from the :mod:`email.parser` module,
+provides an API that can be used to parse a message when the complete contents
+of the message are available in a string or file. The :mod:`email.parser`
+module also provides a second class, called :class:`HeaderParser` which can be
+used if you're only interested in the headers of the message.
+:class:`HeaderParser` can be much faster in these situations, since it does not
+attempt to parse the message body, instead setting the payload to the raw body
+as a string. :class:`HeaderParser` has the same API as the :class:`Parser`
+class.
+
+
+.. class:: Parser([_class])
+
+ The constructor for the :class:`Parser` class takes an optional argument
+ *_class*. This must be a callable factory (such as a function or a class), and
+ it is used whenever a sub-message object needs to be created. It defaults to
+ :class:`~email.message.Message` (see :mod:`email.message`). The factory will
+ be called without arguments.
+
+ The optional *strict* flag is ignored.
+
+ .. deprecated:: 2.4
+ Because the :class:`Parser` class is a backward compatible API wrapper
+ around the new-in-Python 2.4 :class:`FeedParser`, *all* parsing is
+ effectively non-strict. You should simply stop passing a *strict* flag to
+ the :class:`Parser` constructor.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.2.2
+ The *strict* flag was added.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ The *strict* flag was deprecated.
+
+ The other public :class:`Parser` methods are:
+
+
+ .. method:: parse(fp[, headersonly])
+
+ Read all the data from the file-like object *fp*, parse the resulting
+ text, and return the root message object. *fp* must support both the
+ :meth:`readline` and the :meth:`read` methods on file-like objects.
+
+ The text contained in *fp* must be formatted as a block of :rfc:`2822`
+ style headers and header continuation lines, optionally preceded by a
+ envelope header. The header block is terminated either by the end of the
+ data or by a blank line. Following the header block is the body of the
+ message (which may contain MIME-encoded subparts).
+
+ Optional *headersonly* is a flag specifying whether to stop parsing after
+ reading the headers or not. The default is ``False``, meaning it parses
+ the entire contents of the file.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.2.2
+ The *headersonly* flag was added.
+
+
+ .. method:: parsestr(text[, headersonly])
+
+ Similar to the :meth:`parse` method, except it takes a string object
+ instead of a file-like object. Calling this method on a string is exactly
+ equivalent to wrapping *text* in a :class:`StringIO` instance first and
+ calling :meth:`parse`.
+
+ Optional *headersonly* is as with the :meth:`parse` method.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.2.2
+ The *headersonly* flag was added.
+
+Since creating a message object structure from a string or a file object is such
+a common task, two functions are provided as a convenience. They are available
+in the top-level :mod:`email` package namespace.
+
+.. currentmodule:: email
+
+.. function:: message_from_string(s[, _class[, strict]])
+
+ Return a message object structure from a string. This is exactly equivalent to
+ ``Parser().parsestr(s)``. Optional *_class* and *strict* are interpreted as
+ with the :class:`Parser` class constructor.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.2.2
+ The *strict* flag was added.
+
+
+.. function:: message_from_file(fp[, _class[, strict]])
+
+ Return a message object structure tree from an open file object. This is
+ exactly equivalent to ``Parser().parse(fp)``. Optional *_class* and *strict*
+ are interpreted as with the :class:`Parser` class constructor.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.2.2
+ The *strict* flag was added.
+
+Here's an example of how you might use this at an interactive Python prompt::
+
+ >>> import email
+ >>> msg = email.message_from_string(myString)
+
+
+Additional notes
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Here are some notes on the parsing semantics:
+
+* Most non-\ :mimetype:`multipart` type messages are parsed as a single message
+ object with a string payload. These objects will return ``False`` for
+ :meth:`is_multipart`. Their :meth:`get_payload` method will return a string
+ object.
+
+* All :mimetype:`multipart` type messages will be parsed as a container message
+ object with a list of sub-message objects for their payload. The outer
+ container message will return ``True`` for :meth:`is_multipart` and their
+ :meth:`get_payload` method will return the list of :class:`~email.message.Message`
+ subparts.
+
+* Most messages with a content type of :mimetype:`message/\*` (e.g.
+ :mimetype:`message/delivery-status` and :mimetype:`message/rfc822`) will also be
+ parsed as container object containing a list payload of length 1. Their
+ :meth:`is_multipart` method will return ``True``. The single element in the
+ list payload will be a sub-message object.
+
+* Some non-standards compliant messages may not be internally consistent about
+ their :mimetype:`multipart`\ -edness. Such messages may have a
+ :mailheader:`Content-Type` header of type :mimetype:`multipart`, but their
+ :meth:`is_multipart` method may return ``False``. If such messages were parsed
+ with the :class:`FeedParser`, they will have an instance of the
+ :class:`MultipartInvariantViolationDefect` class in their *defects* attribute
+ list. See :mod:`email.errors` for details.
+
+.. rubric:: Footnotes
+
+.. [#] As of email package version 3.0, introduced in Python 2.4, the classic
+ :class:`Parser` was re-implemented in terms of the :class:`FeedParser`, so the
+ semantics and results are identical between the two parsers.

+:mod:`email` --- An email and MIME handling package
+===================================================
+
+.. module:: email
+ :synopsis: Package supporting the parsing, manipulating, and generating email messages,
+ including MIME documents.
+.. moduleauthor:: Barry A. Warsaw <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Barry A. Warsaw <[email protected]>
+.. Copyright (C) 2001-2007 Python Software Foundation
+
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+The :mod:`email` package is a library for managing email messages, including
+MIME and other :rfc:`2822`\ -based message documents. It subsumes most of the
+functionality in several older standard modules such as :mod:`rfc822`,
+:mod:`mimetools`, :mod:`multifile`, and other non-standard packages such as
+:mod:`mimecntl`. It is specifically *not* designed to do any sending of email
+messages to SMTP (:rfc:`2821`), NNTP, or other servers; those are functions of
+modules such as :mod:`smtplib` and :mod:`nntplib`. The :mod:`email` package
+attempts to be as RFC-compliant as possible, supporting in addition to
+:rfc:`2822`, such MIME-related RFCs as :rfc:`2045`, :rfc:`2046`, :rfc:`2047`,
+and :rfc:`2231`.
+
+The primary distinguishing feature of the :mod:`email` package is that it splits
+the parsing and generating of email messages from the internal *object model*
+representation of email. Applications using the :mod:`email` package deal
+primarily with objects; you can add sub-objects to messages, remove sub-objects
+from messages, completely re-arrange the contents, etc. There is a separate
+parser and a separate generator which handles the transformation from flat text
+to the object model, and then back to flat text again. There are also handy
+subclasses for some common MIME object types, and a few miscellaneous utilities
+that help with such common tasks as extracting and parsing message field values,
+creating RFC-compliant dates, etc.
+
+The following sections describe the functionality of the :mod:`email` package.
+The ordering follows a progression that should be common in applications: an
+email message is read as flat text from a file or other source, the text is
+parsed to produce the object structure of the email message, this structure is
+manipulated, and finally, the object tree is rendered back into flat text.
+
+It is perfectly feasible to create the object structure out of whole cloth ---
+i.e. completely from scratch. From there, a similar progression can be taken as
+above.
+
+Also included are detailed specifications of all the classes and modules that
+the :mod:`email` package provides, the exception classes you might encounter
+while using the :mod:`email` package, some auxiliary utilities, and a few
+examples. For users of the older :mod:`mimelib` package, or previous versions
+of the :mod:`email` package, a section on differences and porting is provided.

+Package History
+---------------
+
+This table describes the release history of the email package, corresponding to
+the version of Python that the package was released with. For purposes of this
+document, when you see a note about change or added versions, these refer to the
+Python version the change was made in, *not* the email package version. This
+table also describes the Python compatibility of each version of the package.
+
++---------------+------------------------------+-----------------------+
+| email version | distributed with | compatible with |
++===============+==============================+=======================+
+| :const:`1.x` | Python 2.2.0 to Python 2.2.1 | *no longer supported* |
++---------------+------------------------------+-----------------------+
+| :const:`2.5` | Python 2.2.2+ and Python 2.3 | Python 2.1 to 2.5 |
++---------------+------------------------------+-----------------------+
+| :const:`3.0` | Python 2.4 | Python 2.3 to 2.5 |
++---------------+------------------------------+-----------------------+
+| :const:`4.0` | Python 2.5 | Python 2.3 to 2.5 |
++---------------+------------------------------+-----------------------+
+
+Here are the major differences between :mod:`email` version 4 and version 3:
+
+* All modules have been renamed according to :pep:`8` standards. For example,
+ the version 3 module :mod:`email.Message` was renamed to :mod:`email.message` in
+ version 4.
+
+* A new subpackage :mod:`email.mime` was added and all the version 3
+ :mod:`email.MIME\*` modules were renamed and situated into the :mod:`email.mime`
+ subpackage. For example, the version 3 module :mod:`email.MIMEText` was renamed
+ to :mod:`email.mime.text`.
+
+ *Note that the version 3 names will continue to work until Python 2.6*.
+
+* The :mod:`email.mime.application` module was added, which contains the
+ :class:`MIMEApplication` class.
+
+* Methods that were deprecated in version 3 have been removed. These include
+ :meth:`Generator.__call__`, :meth:`Message.get_type`,
+ :meth:`Message.get_main_type`, :meth:`Message.get_subtype`.
+
+* Fixes have been added for :rfc:`2231` support which can change some of the
+ return types for :func:`Message.get_param` and friends. Under some
+ circumstances, values which used to return a 3-tuple now return simple strings
+ (specifically, if all extended parameter segments were unencoded, there is no
+ language and charset designation expected, so the return type is now a simple
+ string). Also, %-decoding used to be done for both encoded and unencoded
+ segments; this decoding is now done only for encoded segments.
+
+Here are the major differences between :mod:`email` version 3 and version 2:
+
+* The :class:`FeedParser` class was introduced, and the :class:`Parser` class
+ was implemented in terms of the :class:`FeedParser`. All parsing therefore is
+ non-strict, and parsing will make a best effort never to raise an exception.
+ Problems found while parsing messages are stored in the message's *defect*
+ attribute.
+
+* All aspects of the API which raised :exc:`DeprecationWarning`\ s in version 2
+ have been removed. These include the *_encoder* argument to the
+ :class:`MIMEText` constructor, the :meth:`Message.add_payload` method, the
+ :func:`Utils.dump_address_pair` function, and the functions :func:`Utils.decode`
+ and :func:`Utils.encode`.
+
+* New :exc:`DeprecationWarning`\ s have been added to:
+ :meth:`Generator.__call__`, :meth:`Message.get_type`,
+ :meth:`Message.get_main_type`, :meth:`Message.get_subtype`, and the *strict*
+ argument to the :class:`Parser` class. These are expected to be removed in
+ future versions.
+
+* Support for Pythons earlier than 2.3 has been removed.
+
+Here are the differences between :mod:`email` version 2 and version 1:
+
+* The :mod:`email.Header` and :mod:`email.Charset` modules have been added.
+
+* The pickle format for :class:`Message` instances has changed. Since this was
+ never (and still isn't) formally defined, this isn't considered a backward
+ incompatibility. However if your application pickles and unpickles
+ :class:`Message` instances, be aware that in :mod:`email` version 2,
+ :class:`Message` instances now have private variables *_charset* and
+ *_default_type*.
+
+* Several methods in the :class:`Message` class have been deprecated, or their
+ signatures changed. Also, many new methods have been added. See the
+ documentation for the :class:`Message` class for details. The changes should be
+ completely backward compatible.
+
+* The object structure has changed in the face of :mimetype:`message/rfc822`
+ content types. In :mod:`email` version 1, such a type would be represented by a
+ scalar payload, i.e. the container message's :meth:`is_multipart` returned
+ false, :meth:`get_payload` was not a list object, but a single :class:`Message`
+ instance.
+
+ This structure was inconsistent with the rest of the package, so the object
+ representation for :mimetype:`message/rfc822` content types was changed. In
+ :mod:`email` version 2, the container *does* return ``True`` from
+ :meth:`is_multipart`, and :meth:`get_payload` returns a list containing a single
+ :class:`Message` item.
+
+ Note that this is one place that backward compatibility could not be completely
+ maintained. However, if you're already testing the return type of
+ :meth:`get_payload`, you should be fine. You just need to make sure your code
+ doesn't do a :meth:`set_payload` with a :class:`Message` instance on a container
+ with a content type of :mimetype:`message/rfc822`.
+
+* The :class:`Parser` constructor's *strict* argument was added, and its
+ :meth:`parse` and :meth:`parsestr` methods grew a *headersonly* argument. The
+ *strict* flag was also added to functions :func:`email.message_from_file` and
+ :func:`email.message_from_string`.
+
+* :meth:`Generator.__call__` is deprecated; use :meth:`Generator.flatten`
+ instead. The :class:`Generator` class has also grown the :meth:`clone` method.
+
+* The :class:`DecodedGenerator` class in the :mod:`email.Generator` module was
+ added.
+
+* The intermediate base classes :class:`MIMENonMultipart` and
+ :class:`MIMEMultipart` have been added, and interposed in the class hierarchy
+ for most of the other MIME-related derived classes.
+
+* The *_encoder* argument to the :class:`MIMEText` constructor has been
+ deprecated. Encoding now happens implicitly based on the *_charset* argument.
+
+* The following functions in the :mod:`email.Utils` module have been deprecated:
+ :func:`dump_address_pairs`, :func:`decode`, and :func:`encode`. The following
+ functions have been added to the module: :func:`make_msgid`,
+ :func:`decode_rfc2231`, :func:`encode_rfc2231`, and :func:`decode_params`.
+
+* The non-public function :func:`email.Iterators._structure` was added.
+
+
+Differences from :mod:`mimelib`
+-------------------------------
+
+The :mod:`email` package was originally prototyped as a separate library called
+`mimelib <http://mimelib.sf.net/>`_. Changes have been made so that method names
+are more consistent, and some methods or modules have either been added or
+removed. The semantics of some of the methods have also changed. For the most
+part, any functionality available in :mod:`mimelib` is still available in the
+:mod:`email` package, albeit often in a different way. Backward compatibility
+between the :mod:`mimelib` package and the :mod:`email` package was not a
+priority.
+
+Here is a brief description of the differences between the :mod:`mimelib` and
+the :mod:`email` packages, along with hints on how to port your applications.
+
+Of course, the most visible difference between the two packages is that the
+package name has been changed to :mod:`email`. In addition, the top-level
+package has the following differences:
+
+* :func:`messageFromString` has been renamed to :func:`message_from_string`.
+
+* :func:`messageFromFile` has been renamed to :func:`message_from_file`.
+
+The :class:`Message` class has the following differences:
+
+* The method :meth:`asString` was renamed to :meth:`as_string`.
+
+* The method :meth:`ismultipart` was renamed to :meth:`is_multipart`.
+
+* The :meth:`get_payload` method has grown a *decode* optional argument.
+
+* The method :meth:`getall` was renamed to :meth:`get_all`.
+
+* The method :meth:`addheader` was renamed to :meth:`add_header`.
+
+* The method :meth:`gettype` was renamed to :meth:`get_type`.
+
+* The method :meth:`getmaintype` was renamed to :meth:`get_main_type`.
+
+* The method :meth:`getsubtype` was renamed to :meth:`get_subtype`.
+
+* The method :meth:`getparams` was renamed to :meth:`get_params`. Also, whereas
+ :meth:`getparams` returned a list of strings, :meth:`get_params` returns a list
+ of 2-tuples, effectively the key/value pairs of the parameters, split on the
+ ``'='`` sign.
+
+* The method :meth:`getparam` was renamed to :meth:`get_param`.
+
+* The method :meth:`getcharsets` was renamed to :meth:`get_charsets`.
+
+* The method :meth:`getfilename` was renamed to :meth:`get_filename`.
+
+* The method :meth:`getboundary` was renamed to :meth:`get_boundary`.
+
+* The method :meth:`setboundary` was renamed to :meth:`set_boundary`.
+
+* The method :meth:`getdecodedpayload` was removed. To get similar
+ functionality, pass the value 1 to the *decode* flag of the get_payload()
+ method.
+
+* The method :meth:`getpayloadastext` was removed. Similar functionality is
+ supported by the :class:`DecodedGenerator` class in the :mod:`email.generator`
+ module.
+
+* The method :meth:`getbodyastext` was removed. You can get similar
+ functionality by creating an iterator with :func:`typed_subpart_iterator` in the
+ :mod:`email.iterators` module.
+
+The :class:`Parser` class has no differences in its public interface. It does
+have some additional smarts to recognize :mimetype:`message/delivery-status`
+type messages, which it represents as a :class:`Message` instance containing
+separate :class:`Message` subparts for each header block in the delivery status
+notification [#]_.
+
+The :class:`Generator` class has no differences in its public interface. There
+is a new class in the :mod:`email.generator` module though, called
+:class:`DecodedGenerator` which provides most of the functionality previously
+available in the :meth:`Message.getpayloadastext` method.
+
+The following modules and classes have been changed:
+
+* The :class:`MIMEBase` class constructor arguments *_major* and *_minor* have
+ changed to *_maintype* and *_subtype* respectively.
+
+* The ``Image`` class/module has been renamed to ``MIMEImage``. The *_minor*
+ argument has been renamed to *_subtype*.
+
+* The ``Text`` class/module has been renamed to ``MIMEText``. The *_minor*
+ argument has been renamed to *_subtype*.
+
+* The ``MessageRFC822`` class/module has been renamed to ``MIMEMessage``. Note
+ that an earlier version of :mod:`mimelib` called this class/module ``RFC822``,
+ but that clashed with the Python standard library module :mod:`rfc822` on some
+ case-insensitive file systems.
+
+ Also, the :class:`MIMEMessage` class now represents any kind of MIME message
+ with main type :mimetype:`message`. It takes an optional argument *_subtype*
+ which is used to set the MIME subtype. *_subtype* defaults to
+ :mimetype:`rfc822`.
+
+:mod:`mimelib` provided some utility functions in its :mod:`address` and
+:mod:`date` modules. All of these functions have been moved to the
+:mod:`email.utils` module.
+
+The ``MsgReader`` class/module has been removed. Its functionality is most
+closely supported in the :func:`body_line_iterator` function in the
+:mod:`email.iterators` module.

+:mod:`email.utils`: Miscellaneous utilities
+-------------------------------------------
+
+.. module:: email.utils
+ :synopsis: Miscellaneous email package utilities.
+
+
+There are several useful utilities provided in the :mod:`email.utils` module:
+
+
+.. function:: quote(str)
+
+ Return a new string with backslashes in *str* replaced by two backslashes, and
+ double quotes replaced by backslash-double quote.
+
+
+.. function:: unquote(str)
+
+ Return a new string which is an *unquoted* version of *str*. If *str* ends and
+ begins with double quotes, they are stripped off. Likewise if *str* ends and
+ begins with angle brackets, they are stripped off.
+
+
+.. function:: parseaddr(address)
+
+ Parse address -- which should be the value of some address-containing field such
+ as :mailheader:`To` or :mailheader:`Cc` -- into its constituent *realname* and
+ *email address* parts. Returns a tuple of that information, unless the parse
+ fails, in which case a 2-tuple of ``('', '')`` is returned.
+
+
+.. function:: formataddr(pair)
+
+ The inverse of :meth:`parseaddr`, this takes a 2-tuple of the form ``(realname,
+ email_address)`` and returns the string value suitable for a :mailheader:`To` or
+ :mailheader:`Cc` header. If the first element of *pair* is false, then the
+ second element is returned unmodified.
+
+
+.. function:: getaddresses(fieldvalues)
+
+ This method returns a list of 2-tuples of the form returned by ``parseaddr()``.
+ *fieldvalues* is a sequence of header field values as might be returned by
+ :meth:`Message.get_all`. Here's a simple example that gets all the recipients
+ of a message::
+
+ from email.utils import getaddresses
+
+ tos = msg.get_all('to', [])
+ ccs = msg.get_all('cc', [])
+ resent_tos = msg.get_all('resent-to', [])
+ resent_ccs = msg.get_all('resent-cc', [])
+ all_recipients = getaddresses(tos + ccs + resent_tos + resent_ccs)
+
+
+.. function:: parsedate(date)
+
+ Attempts to parse a date according to the rules in :rfc:`2822`. however, some
+ mailers don't follow that format as specified, so :func:`parsedate` tries to
+ guess correctly in such cases. *date* is a string containing an :rfc:`2822`
+ date, such as ``"Mon, 20 Nov 1995 19:12:08 -0500"``. If it succeeds in parsing
+ the date, :func:`parsedate` returns a 9-tuple that can be passed directly to
+ :func:`time.mktime`; otherwise ``None`` will be returned. Note that indexes 6,
+ 7, and 8 of the result tuple are not usable.
+
+
+.. function:: parsedate_tz(date)
+
+ Performs the same function as :func:`parsedate`, but returns either ``None`` or
+ a 10-tuple; the first 9 elements make up a tuple that can be passed directly to
+ :func:`time.mktime`, and the tenth is the offset of the date's timezone from UTC
+ (which is the official term for Greenwich Mean Time) [#]_. If the input string
+ has no timezone, the last element of the tuple returned is ``None``. Note that
+ indexes 6, 7, and 8 of the result tuple are not usable.
+
+
+.. function:: mktime_tz(tuple)
+
+ Turn a 10-tuple as returned by :func:`parsedate_tz` into a UTC timestamp. It
+ the timezone item in the tuple is ``None``, assume local time. Minor
+ deficiency: :func:`mktime_tz` interprets the first 8 elements of *tuple* as a
+ local time and then compensates for the timezone difference. This may yield a
+ slight error around changes in daylight savings time, though not worth worrying
+ about for common use.
+
+
+.. function:: formatdate([timeval[, localtime][, usegmt]])
+
+ Returns a date string as per :rfc:`2822`, e.g.::
+
+ Fri, 09 Nov 2001 01:08:47 -0000
+
+ Optional *timeval* if given is a floating point time value as accepted by
+ :func:`time.gmtime` and :func:`time.localtime`, otherwise the current time is
+ used.
+
+ Optional *localtime* is a flag that when ``True``, interprets *timeval*, and
+ returns a date relative to the local timezone instead of UTC, properly taking
+ daylight savings time into account. The default is ``False`` meaning UTC is
+ used.
+
+ Optional *usegmt* is a flag that when ``True``, outputs a date string with the
+ timezone as an ascii string ``GMT``, rather than a numeric ``-0000``. This is
+ needed for some protocols (such as HTTP). This only applies when *localtime* is
+ ``False``. The default is ``False``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+.. function:: make_msgid([idstring])
+
+ Returns a string suitable for an :rfc:`2822`\ -compliant
+ :mailheader:`Message-ID` header. Optional *idstring* if given, is a string used
+ to strengthen the uniqueness of the message id.
+
+
+.. function:: decode_rfc2231(s)
+
+ Decode the string *s* according to :rfc:`2231`.
+
+
+.. function:: encode_rfc2231(s[, charset[, language]])
+
+ Encode the string *s* according to :rfc:`2231`. Optional *charset* and
+ *language*, if given is the character set name and language name to use. If
+ neither is given, *s* is returned as-is. If *charset* is given but *language*
+ is not, the string is encoded using the empty string for *language*.
+
+
+.. function:: collapse_rfc2231_value(value[, errors[, fallback_charset]])
+
+ When a header parameter is encoded in :rfc:`2231` format,
+ :meth:`Message.get_param` may return a 3-tuple containing the character set,
+ language, and value. :func:`collapse_rfc2231_value` turns this into a unicode
+ string. Optional *errors* is passed to the *errors* argument of the built-in
+ :func:`unicode` function; it defaults to ``replace``. Optional
+ *fallback_charset* specifies the character set to use if the one in the
+ :rfc:`2231` header is not known by Python; it defaults to ``us-ascii``.
+
+ For convenience, if the *value* passed to :func:`collapse_rfc2231_value` is not
+ a tuple, it should be a string and it is returned unquoted.
+
+
+.. function:: decode_params(params)
+
+ Decode parameters list according to :rfc:`2231`. *params* is a sequence of
+ 2-tuples containing elements of the form ``(content-type, string-value)``.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ The :func:`dump_address_pair` function has been removed; use :func:`formataddr`
+ instead.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ The :func:`decode` function has been removed; use the
+ :meth:`Header.decode_header` method instead.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ The :func:`encode` function has been removed; use the :meth:`Header.encode`
+ method instead.
+
+.. rubric:: Footnotes
+
+.. [#] Note that the sign of the timezone offset is the opposite of the sign of the
+ ``time.timezone`` variable for the same timezone; the latter variable follows
+ the POSIX standard while this module follows :rfc:`2822`.

+==============================================
+
+.. module:: errno
+ :synopsis: Standard errno system symbols.
+
+
+This module makes available standard ``errno`` system symbols. The value of each

+all-inclusive.
+
+
+.. data:: errorcode
+
+ Dictionary providing a mapping from the errno value to the string name in the

+ ``'EPERM'``.
+
+To translate a numeric error code to an error message, use :func:`os.strerror`.
+
+Of the following list, symbols that are not used on the current platform are not
+defined by the module. The specific list of defined symbols is available as

+
+Built-in Exceptions
+===================
+
+.. module:: exceptions
+ :synopsis: Standard exception classes.
+
+
+Exceptions should be class objects. The exceptions are defined in the module
+:mod:`exceptions`. This module never needs to be imported explicitly: the
+exceptions are provided in the built-in namespace as well as the
+:mod:`exceptions` module.
+
+.. index::
+ statement: try
+ statement: except
+
+For class exceptions, in a :keyword:`try` statement with an :keyword:`except`
+clause that mentions a particular class, that clause also handles any exception
+classes derived from that class (but not exception classes from which *it* is
+derived). Two exception classes that are not related via subclassing are never
+equivalent, even if they have the same name.
+
+.. index:: statement: raise
+
+The built-in exceptions listed below can be generated by the interpreter or
+built-in functions. Except where mentioned, they have an "associated value"
+indicating the detailed cause of the error. This may be a string or a tuple
+containing several items of information (e.g., an error code and a string
+explaining the code). The associated value is the second argument to the
+:keyword:`raise` statement. If the exception class is derived from the standard
+root class :exc:`BaseException`, the associated value is present as the
+exception instance's :attr:`args` attribute.
+
+User code can raise built-in exceptions. This can be used to test an exception
+handler or to report an error condition "just like" the situation in which the
+interpreter raises the same exception; but beware that there is nothing to
+prevent user code from raising an inappropriate error.
+
+The built-in exception classes can be sub-classed to define new exceptions;
+programmers are encouraged to at least derive new exceptions from the
+:exc:`Exception` class and not :exc:`BaseException`. More information on
+defining exceptions is available in the Python Tutorial under
+:ref:`tut-userexceptions`.
+
+The following exceptions are only used as base classes for other exceptions.
+
+.. exception:: BaseException
+
+ The base class for all built-in exceptions. It is not meant to be directly
+ inherited by user-defined classes (for that, use :exc:`Exception`). If
+ :func:`str` or :func:`unicode` is called on an instance of this class, the
+ representation of the argument(s) to the instance are returned, or the empty
+ string when there were no arguments.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+ .. attribute:: args
+
+ The tuple of arguments given to the exception constructor. Some built-in
+ exceptions (like :exc:`IOError`) expect a certain number of arguments and
+ assign a special meaning to the elements of this tuple, while others are
+ usually called only with a single string giving an error message.
+
+
+.. exception:: Exception
+
+ All built-in, non-system-exiting exceptions are derived from this class. All
+ user-defined exceptions should also be derived from this class.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ Changed to inherit from :exc:`BaseException`.
+
+
+.. exception:: StandardError
+
+ The base class for all built-in exceptions except :exc:`StopIteration`,
+ :exc:`GeneratorExit`, :exc:`KeyboardInterrupt` and :exc:`SystemExit`.
+ :exc:`StandardError` itself is derived from :exc:`Exception`.
+
+
+.. exception:: ArithmeticError
+
+ The base class for those built-in exceptions that are raised for various
+ arithmetic errors: :exc:`OverflowError`, :exc:`ZeroDivisionError`,
+ :exc:`FloatingPointError`.
+
+
+.. exception:: BufferError
+
+ Raised when a :ref:`buffer <bufferobjects>` related operation cannot be
+ performed.
+
+
+.. exception:: LookupError
+
+ The base class for the exceptions that are raised when a key or index used on
+ a mapping or sequence is invalid: :exc:`IndexError`, :exc:`KeyError`. This
+ can be raised directly by :func:`codecs.lookup`.
+
+
+.. exception:: EnvironmentError
+
+ The base class for exceptions that can occur outside the Python system:
+ :exc:`IOError`, :exc:`OSError`. When exceptions of this type are created with a
+ 2-tuple, the first item is available on the instance's :attr:`errno` attribute
+ (it is assumed to be an error number), and the second item is available on the
+ :attr:`strerror` attribute (it is usually the associated error message). The
+ tuple itself is also available on the :attr:`args` attribute.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 1.5.2
+
+ When an :exc:`EnvironmentError` exception is instantiated with a 3-tuple, the
+ first two items are available as above, while the third item is available on the
+ :attr:`filename` attribute. However, for backwards compatibility, the
+ :attr:`args` attribute contains only a 2-tuple of the first two constructor
+ arguments.
+
+ The :attr:`filename` attribute is ``None`` when this exception is created with
+ other than 3 arguments. The :attr:`errno` and :attr:`strerror` attributes are
+ also ``None`` when the instance was created with other than 2 or 3 arguments.
+ In this last case, :attr:`args` contains the verbatim constructor arguments as a
+ tuple.
+
+The following exceptions are the exceptions that are actually raised.
+
+
+.. exception:: AssertionError
+
+ .. index:: statement: assert
+
+ Raised when an :keyword:`assert` statement fails.
+
+
+.. exception:: AttributeError
+
+ Raised when an attribute reference (see :ref:`attribute-references`) or
+ assignment fails. (When an object does not support attribute references or
+ attribute assignments at all, :exc:`TypeError` is raised.)
+
+
+.. exception:: EOFError
+
+ Raised when one of the built-in functions (:func:`input` or :func:`raw_input`)
+ hits an end-of-file condition (EOF) without reading any data. (N.B.: the
+ :meth:`file.read` and :meth:`file.readline` methods return an empty string
+ when they hit EOF.)
+
+
+.. exception:: FloatingPointError
+
+ Raised when a floating point operation fails. This exception is always defined,
+ but can only be raised when Python is configured with the
+ ``--with-fpectl`` option, or the :const:`WANT_SIGFPE_HANDLER` symbol is
+ defined in the :file:`pyconfig.h` file.
+
+
+.. exception:: GeneratorExit
+
+ Raise when a :term:`generator`\'s :meth:`close` method is called. It
+ directly inherits from :exc:`BaseException` instead of :exc:`StandardError` since
+ it is technically not an error.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ Changed to inherit from :exc:`BaseException`.
+
+.. exception:: IOError
+
+ Raised when an I/O operation (such as a :keyword:`print` statement, the built-in
+ :func:`open` function or a method of a file object) fails for an I/O-related
+ reason, e.g., "file not found" or "disk full".
+
+ This class is derived from :exc:`EnvironmentError`. See the discussion above
+ for more information on exception instance attributes.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ Changed :exc:`socket.error` to use this as a base class.
+
+
+.. exception:: ImportError
+
+ Raised when an :keyword:`import` statement fails to find the module definition
+ or when a ``from ... import`` fails to find a name that is to be imported.
+
+
+.. exception:: IndexError
+
+ Raised when a sequence subscript is out of range. (Slice indices are silently
+ truncated to fall in the allowed range; if an index is not a plain integer,
+ :exc:`TypeError` is raised.)
+
+ .. XXX xref to sequences
+
+
+.. exception:: KeyError
+
+ Raised when a mapping (dictionary) key is not found in the set of existing keys.
+
+ .. XXX xref to mapping objects?
+
+
+.. exception:: KeyboardInterrupt
+
+ Raised when the user hits the interrupt key (normally :kbd:`Control-C` or
+ :kbd:`Delete`). During execution, a check for interrupts is made regularly.
+ Interrupts typed when a built-in function :func:`input` or :func:`raw_input` is
+ waiting for input also raise this exception. The exception inherits from
+ :exc:`BaseException` so as to not be accidentally caught by code that catches
+ :exc:`Exception` and thus prevent the interpreter from exiting.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ Changed to inherit from :exc:`BaseException`.
+
+
+.. exception:: MemoryError
+
+ Raised when an operation runs out of memory but the situation may still be
+ rescued (by deleting some objects). The associated value is a string indicating
+ what kind of (internal) operation ran out of memory. Note that because of the
+ underlying memory management architecture (C's :c:func:`malloc` function), the
+ interpreter may not always be able to completely recover from this situation; it
+ nevertheless raises an exception so that a stack traceback can be printed, in
+ case a run-away program was the cause.
+
+
+.. exception:: NameError
+
+ Raised when a local or global name is not found. This applies only to
+ unqualified names. The associated value is an error message that includes the
+ name that could not be found.
+
+
+.. exception:: NotImplementedError
+
+ This exception is derived from :exc:`RuntimeError`. In user defined base
+ classes, abstract methods should raise this exception when they require derived
+ classes to override the method.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 1.5.2
+
+
+.. exception:: OSError
+
+ .. index:: module: errno
+
+ This exception is derived from :exc:`EnvironmentError`. It is raised when a
+ function returns a system-related error (not for illegal argument types or
+ other incidental errors). The :attr:`errno` attribute is a numeric error
+ code from :c:data:`errno`, and the :attr:`strerror` attribute is the
+ corresponding string, as would be printed by the C function :c:func:`perror`.
+ See the module :mod:`errno`, which contains names for the error codes defined
+ by the underlying operating system.
+
+ For exceptions that involve a file system path (such as :func:`chdir` or
+ :func:`unlink`), the exception instance will contain a third attribute,
+ :attr:`filename`, which is the file name passed to the function.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 1.5.2
+
+
+.. exception:: OverflowError
+
+ Raised when the result of an arithmetic operation is too large to be
+ represented. This cannot occur for long integers (which would rather raise
+ :exc:`MemoryError` than give up) and for most operations with plain integers,
+ which return a long integer instead. Because of the lack of standardization
+ of floating point exception handling in C, most floating point operations
+ also aren't checked.
+
+
+.. exception:: ReferenceError
+
+ This exception is raised when a weak reference proxy, created by the
+ :func:`weakref.proxy` function, is used to access an attribute of the referent
+ after it has been garbage collected. For more information on weak references,
+ see the :mod:`weakref` module.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2
+ Previously known as the :exc:`weakref.ReferenceError` exception.
+
+
+.. exception:: RuntimeError
+
+ Raised when an error is detected that doesn't fall in any of the other
+ categories. The associated value is a string indicating what precisely went
+ wrong. (This exception is mostly a relic from a previous version of the
+ interpreter; it is not used very much any more.)
+
+
+.. exception:: StopIteration
+
+ Raised by an :term:`iterator`\'s :meth:`~iterator.next` method to signal that
+ there are no further values. This is derived from :exc:`Exception` rather
+ than :exc:`StandardError`, since this is not considered an error in its
+ normal application.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+
+.. exception:: SyntaxError
+
+ Raised when the parser encounters a syntax error. This may occur in an
+ :keyword:`import` statement, in an :keyword:`exec` statement, in a call to the
+ built-in function :func:`eval` or :func:`input`, or when reading the initial
+ script or standard input (also interactively).
+
+ Instances of this class have attributes :attr:`filename`, :attr:`lineno`,
+ :attr:`offset` and :attr:`text` for easier access to the details. :func:`str`
+ of the exception instance returns only the message.
+
+
+.. exception:: IndentationError
+
+ Base class for syntax errors related to incorrect indentation. This is a
+ subclass of :exc:`SyntaxError`.
+
+
+.. exception:: TabError
+
+ Raised when indentation contains an inconsistent use of tabs and spaces.
+ This is a subclass of :exc:`IndentationError`.
+
+
+.. exception:: SystemError
+
+ Raised when the interpreter finds an internal error, but the situation does not
+ look so serious to cause it to abandon all hope. The associated value is a
+ string indicating what went wrong (in low-level terms).
+
+ You should report this to the author or maintainer of your Python interpreter.
+ Be sure to report the version of the Python interpreter (``sys.version``; it is
+ also printed at the start of an interactive Python session), the exact error
+ message (the exception's associated value) and if possible the source of the
+ program that triggered the error.
+
+
+.. exception:: SystemExit
+
+ This exception is raised by the :func:`sys.exit` function. When it is not
+ handled, the Python interpreter exits; no stack traceback is printed. If the
+ associated value is a plain integer, it specifies the system exit status (passed
+ to C's :c:func:`exit` function); if it is ``None``, the exit status is zero; if
+ it has another type (such as a string), the object's value is printed and the
+ exit status is one.
+
+ Instances have an attribute :attr:`code` which is set to the proposed exit
+ status or error message (defaulting to ``None``). Also, this exception derives
+ directly from :exc:`BaseException` and not :exc:`StandardError`, since it is not
+ technically an error.
+
+ A call to :func:`sys.exit` is translated into an exception so that clean-up
+ handlers (:keyword:`finally` clauses of :keyword:`try` statements) can be
+ executed, and so that a debugger can execute a script without running the risk
+ of losing control. The :func:`os._exit` function can be used if it is
+ absolutely positively necessary to exit immediately (for example, in the child
+ process after a call to :func:`fork`).
+
+ The exception inherits from :exc:`BaseException` instead of :exc:`StandardError`
+ or :exc:`Exception` so that it is not accidentally caught by code that catches
+ :exc:`Exception`. This allows the exception to properly propagate up and cause
+ the interpreter to exit.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ Changed to inherit from :exc:`BaseException`.
+
+
+.. exception:: TypeError
+
+ Raised when an operation or function is applied to an object of inappropriate
+ type. The associated value is a string giving details about the type mismatch.
+
+
+.. exception:: UnboundLocalError
+
+ Raised when a reference is made to a local variable in a function or method, but
+ no value has been bound to that variable. This is a subclass of
+ :exc:`NameError`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+
+.. exception:: UnicodeError
+
+ Raised when a Unicode-related encoding or decoding error occurs. It is a
+ subclass of :exc:`ValueError`.
+
+ :exc:`UnicodeError` has attributes that describe the encoding or decoding
+ error. For example, ``err.object[err.start:err.end]`` gives the particular
+ invalid input that the codec failed on.
+
+ .. attribute:: encoding
+
+ The name of the encoding that raised the error.
+
+ .. attribute:: reason
+
+ A string describing the specific codec error.
+
+ .. attribute:: object
+
+ The object the codec was attempting to encode or decode.
+
+ .. attribute:: start
+
+ The first index of invalid data in :attr:`object`.
+
+ .. attribute:: end
+
+ The index after the last invalid data in :attr:`object`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+
+.. exception:: UnicodeEncodeError
+
+ Raised when a Unicode-related error occurs during encoding. It is a subclass of
+ :exc:`UnicodeError`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. exception:: UnicodeDecodeError
+
+ Raised when a Unicode-related error occurs during decoding. It is a subclass of
+ :exc:`UnicodeError`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. exception:: UnicodeTranslateError
+
+ Raised when a Unicode-related error occurs during translating. It is a subclass
+ of :exc:`UnicodeError`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. exception:: ValueError
+
+ Raised when a built-in operation or function receives an argument that has the
+ right type but an inappropriate value, and the situation is not described by a
+ more precise exception such as :exc:`IndexError`.
+
+
+.. exception:: VMSError
+
+ Only available on VMS. Raised when a VMS-specific error occurs.
+
+
+.. exception:: WindowsError
+
+ Raised when a Windows-specific error occurs or when the error number does not
+ correspond to an :c:data:`errno` value. The :attr:`winerror` and
+ :attr:`strerror` values are created from the return values of the
+ :c:func:`GetLastError` and :c:func:`FormatMessage` functions from the Windows
+ Platform API. The :attr:`errno` value maps the :attr:`winerror` value to
+ corresponding ``errno.h`` values. This is a subclass of :exc:`OSError`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ Previous versions put the :c:func:`GetLastError` codes into :attr:`errno`.
+
+
+.. exception:: ZeroDivisionError
+
+ Raised when the second argument of a division or modulo operation is zero. The
+ associated value is a string indicating the type of the operands and the
+ operation.
+
+The following exceptions are used as warning categories; see the :mod:`warnings`
+module for more information.
+
+
+.. exception:: Warning
+
+ Base class for warning categories.
+
+
+.. exception:: UserWarning
+
+ Base class for warnings generated by user code.
+
+
+.. exception:: DeprecationWarning
+
+ Base class for warnings about deprecated features.
+

+
+ Base class for warnings about features which will be deprecated in the future.
+
+
+.. exception:: SyntaxWarning
+
+ Base class for warnings about dubious syntax
+
+
+.. exception:: RuntimeWarning
+
+ Base class for warnings about dubious runtime behavior.
+
+
+.. exception:: FutureWarning
+
+ Base class for warnings about constructs that will change semantically in the
+ future.
+
+
+.. exception:: ImportWarning
+
+ Base class for warnings about probable mistakes in module imports.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. exception:: UnicodeWarning
+
+ Base class for warnings related to Unicode.

+:mod:`fcntl` --- The :func:`fcntl` and :func:`ioctl` system calls
+=================================================================
+
+.. module:: fcntl
+ :platform: Unix
+ :synopsis: The fcntl() and ioctl() system calls.
+.. sectionauthor:: Jaap Vermeulen
+
+
+.. index::
+ pair: UNIX; file control
+ pair: UNIX; I/O control
+
+This module performs file control and I/O control on file descriptors. It is an
+interface to the :c:func:`fcntl` and :c:func:`ioctl` Unix routines.
+
+All functions in this module take a file descriptor *fd* as their first
+argument. This can be an integer file descriptor, such as returned by
+``sys.stdin.fileno()``, or a file object, such as ``sys.stdin`` itself, which
+provides a :meth:`fileno` which returns a genuine file descriptor.
+
+The module defines the following functions:
+
+
+.. function:: fcntl(fd, op[, arg])
+
+ Perform the requested operation on file descriptor *fd* (file objects providing
+ a :meth:`fileno` method are accepted as well). The operation is defined by *op*
+ and is operating system dependent. These codes are also found in the
+ :mod:`fcntl` module. The argument *arg* is optional, and defaults to the integer
+ value ``0``. When present, it can either be an integer value, or a string.
+ With the argument missing or an integer value, the return value of this function
+ is the integer return value of the C :c:func:`fcntl` call. When the argument is
+ a string it represents a binary structure, e.g. created by :func:`struct.pack`.
+ The binary data is copied to a buffer whose address is passed to the C
+ :c:func:`fcntl` call. The return value after a successful call is the contents
+ of the buffer, converted to a string object. The length of the returned string
+ will be the same as the length of the *arg* argument. This is limited to 1024
+ bytes. If the information returned in the buffer by the operating system is
+ larger than 1024 bytes, this is most likely to result in a segmentation
+ violation or a more subtle data corruption.
+
+ If the :c:func:`fcntl` fails, an :exc:`IOError` is raised.
+
+
+.. function:: ioctl(fd, op[, arg[, mutate_flag]])
+
+ This function is identical to the :func:`fcntl` function, except that the
+ operations are typically defined in the library module :mod:`termios` and the
+ argument handling is even more complicated.
+
+ The op parameter is limited to values that can fit in 32-bits.
+
+ The parameter *arg* can be one of an integer, absent (treated identically to the
+ integer ``0``), an object supporting the read-only buffer interface (most likely
+ a plain Python string) or an object supporting the read-write buffer interface.
+
+ In all but the last case, behaviour is as for the :func:`fcntl` function.
+
+ If a mutable buffer is passed, then the behaviour is determined by the value of
+ the *mutate_flag* parameter.
+
+ If it is false, the buffer's mutability is ignored and behaviour is as for a
+ read-only buffer, except that the 1024 byte limit mentioned above is avoided --
+ so long as the buffer you pass is as least as long as what the operating system
+ wants to put there, things should work.
+
+ If *mutate_flag* is true, then the buffer is (in effect) passed to the
+ underlying :func:`ioctl` system call, the latter's return code is passed back to
+ the calling Python, and the buffer's new contents reflect the action of the
+ :func:`ioctl`. This is a slight simplification, because if the supplied buffer
+ is less than 1024 bytes long it is first copied into a static buffer 1024 bytes
+ long which is then passed to :func:`ioctl` and copied back into the supplied
+ buffer.
+
+ If *mutate_flag* is not supplied, then from Python 2.5 it defaults to true,
+ which is a change from versions 2.3 and 2.4. Supply the argument explicitly if
+ version portability is a priority.
+
+ An example::
+
+ >>> import array, fcntl, struct, termios, os
+ >>> os.getpgrp()
+ 13341
+ >>> struct.unpack('h', fcntl.ioctl(0, termios.TIOCGPGRP, " "))[0]
+ 13341
+ >>> buf = array.array('h', [0])
+ >>> fcntl.ioctl(0, termios.TIOCGPGRP, buf, 1)
+ 0
+ >>> buf
+ array('h', [13341])
+
+
+.. function:: flock(fd, op)
+
+ Perform the lock operation *op* on file descriptor *fd* (file objects providing
+ a :meth:`fileno` method are accepted as well). See the Unix manual
+ :manpage:`flock(2)` for details. (On some systems, this function is emulated
+ using :c:func:`fcntl`.)
+
+
+.. function:: lockf(fd, operation, [length, [start, [whence]]])
+
+ This is essentially a wrapper around the :func:`fcntl` locking calls. *fd* is
+ the file descriptor of the file to lock or unlock, and *operation* is one of the
+ following values:
+
+ * :const:`LOCK_UN` -- unlock
+ * :const:`LOCK_SH` -- acquire a shared lock
+ * :const:`LOCK_EX` -- acquire an exclusive lock
+
+ When *operation* is :const:`LOCK_SH` or :const:`LOCK_EX`, it can also be
+ bitwise ORed with :const:`LOCK_NB` to avoid blocking on lock acquisition.
+ If :const:`LOCK_NB` is used and the lock cannot be acquired, an
+ :exc:`IOError` will be raised and the exception will have an *errno*
+ attribute set to :const:`EACCES` or :const:`EAGAIN` (depending on the
+ operating system; for portability, check for both values). On at least some
+ systems, :const:`LOCK_EX` can only be used if the file descriptor refers to a
+ file opened for writing.
+
+ *length* is the number of bytes to lock, *start* is the byte offset at which the
+ lock starts, relative to *whence*, and *whence* is as with :func:`fileobj.seek`,
+ specifically:
+
+ * :const:`0` -- relative to the start of the file (:const:`SEEK_SET`)
+ * :const:`1` -- relative to the current buffer position (:const:`SEEK_CUR`)
+ * :const:`2` -- relative to the end of the file (:const:`SEEK_END`)
+
+ The default for *start* is 0, which means to start at the beginning of the file.
+ The default for *length* is 0 which means to lock to the end of the file. The
+ default for *whence* is also 0.
+
+Examples (all on a SVR4 compliant system)::
+
+ import struct, fcntl, os
+
+ f = open(...)
+ rv = fcntl.fcntl(f, fcntl.F_SETFL, os.O_NDELAY)
+
+ lockdata = struct.pack('hhllhh', fcntl.F_WRLCK, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0)
+ rv = fcntl.fcntl(f, fcntl.F_SETLKW, lockdata)
+
+Note that in the first example the return value variable *rv* will hold an
+integer value; in the second example it will hold a string value. The structure
+lay-out for the *lockdata* variable is system dependent --- therefore using the
+:func:`flock` call may be better.
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ Module :mod:`os`
+ If the locking flags :const:`O_SHLOCK` and :const:`O_EXLOCK` are present
+ in the :mod:`os` module (on BSD only), the :func:`os.open` function
+ provides an alternative to the :func:`lockf` and :func:`flock` functions.

+:mod:`filecmp` --- File and Directory Comparisons
+=================================================
+
+.. module:: filecmp
+ :synopsis: Compare files efficiently.
+.. sectionauthor:: Moshe Zadka <[email protected]>
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/filecmp.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`filecmp` module defines functions to compare files and directories,
+with various optional time/correctness trade-offs. For comparing files,
+see also the :mod:`difflib` module.
+
+The :mod:`filecmp` module defines the following functions:
+
+
+.. function:: cmp(f1, f2[, shallow])
+
+ Compare the files named *f1* and *f2*, returning ``True`` if they seem equal,
+ ``False`` otherwise.
+
+ Unless *shallow* is given and is false, files with identical :func:`os.stat`
+ signatures are taken to be equal.
+
+ Files that were compared using this function will not be compared again unless
+ their :func:`os.stat` signature changes.
+
+ Note that no external programs are called from this function, giving it
+ portability and efficiency.
+
+
+.. function:: cmpfiles(dir1, dir2, common[, shallow])
+
+ Compare the files in the two directories *dir1* and *dir2* whose names are
+ given by *common*.
+
+ Returns three lists of file names: *match*, *mismatch*,
+ *errors*. *match* contains the list of files that match, *mismatch* contains
+ the names of those that don't, and *errors* lists the names of files which
+ could not be compared. Files are listed in *errors* if they don't exist in
+ one of the directories, the user lacks permission to read them or if the
+ comparison could not be done for some other reason.
+
+ The *shallow* parameter has the same meaning and default value as for
+ :func:`filecmp.cmp`.
+
+ For example, ``cmpfiles('a', 'b', ['c', 'd/e'])`` will compare ``a/c`` with
+ ``b/c`` and ``a/d/e`` with ``b/d/e``. ``'c'`` and ``'d/e'`` will each be in
+ one of the three returned lists.
+
+
+Example::
+
+ >>> import filecmp
+ >>> filecmp.cmp('undoc.rst', 'undoc.rst') # doctest: +SKIP
+ True
+ >>> filecmp.cmp('undoc.rst', 'index.rst') # doctest: +SKIP
+ False
+
+
+.. _dircmp-objects:
+
+The :class:`dircmp` class
+-------------------------
+
+:class:`dircmp` instances are built using this constructor:
+
+
+.. class:: dircmp(a, b[, ignore[, hide]])
+
+ Construct a new directory comparison object, to compare the directories *a* and
+ *b*. *ignore* is a list of names to ignore, and defaults to ``['RCS', 'CVS',
+ 'tags']``. *hide* is a list of names to hide, and defaults to ``[os.curdir,
+ os.pardir]``.
+
+ The :class:`dircmp` class compares files by doing *shallow* comparisons
+ as described for :func:`filecmp.cmp`.
+
+ The :class:`dircmp` class provides the following methods:
+
+
+ .. method:: report()
+
+ Print (to ``sys.stdout``) a comparison between *a* and *b*.
+
+
+ .. method:: report_partial_closure()
+
+ Print a comparison between *a* and *b* and common immediate
+ subdirectories.
+
+
+ .. method:: report_full_closure()
+
+ Print a comparison between *a* and *b* and common subdirectories
+ (recursively).
+
+ The :class:`dircmp` class offers a number of interesting attributes that may be
+ used to get various bits of information about the directory trees being
+ compared.
+
+ Note that via :meth:`__getattr__` hooks, all attributes are computed lazily,
+ so there is no speed penalty if only those attributes which are lightweight
+ to compute are used.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: left
+
+ The directory *a*.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: right
+
+ The directory *b*.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: left_list
+
+ Files and subdirectories in *a*, filtered by *hide* and *ignore*.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: right_list
+
+ Files and subdirectories in *b*, filtered by *hide* and *ignore*.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: common
+
+ Files and subdirectories in both *a* and *b*.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: left_only
+
+ Files and subdirectories only in *a*.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: right_only
+
+ Files and subdirectories only in *b*.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: common_dirs
+
+ Subdirectories in both *a* and *b*.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: common_files
+
+ Files in both *a* and *b*
+
+
+ .. attribute:: common_funny
+
+ Names in both *a* and *b*, such that the type differs between the
+ directories, or names for which :func:`os.stat` reports an error.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: same_files
+
+ Files which are identical in both *a* and *b*, using the class's
+ file comparison operator.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: diff_files
+
+ Files which are in both *a* and *b*, whose contents differ according
+ to the class's file comparison operator.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: funny_files
+
+ Files which are in both *a* and *b*, but could not be compared.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: subdirs
+
+ A dictionary mapping names in :attr:`common_dirs` to :class:`dircmp` objects.
+
+
+Here is a simplified example of using the ``subdirs`` attribute to search
+recursively through two directories to show common different files::
+
+ >>> from filecmp import dircmp
+ >>> def print_diff_files(dcmp):
+ ... for name in dcmp.diff_files:
+ ... print "diff_file %s found in %s and %s" % (name, dcmp.left,
+ ... dcmp.right)
+ ... for sub_dcmp in dcmp.subdirs.values():
+ ... print_diff_files(sub_dcmp)
+ ...
+ >>> dcmp = dircmp('dir1', 'dir2') # doctest: +SKIP
+ >>> print_diff_files(dcmp) # doctest: +SKIP
+

+:mod:`fileinput` --- Iterate over lines from multiple input streams
+===================================================================
+
+.. module:: fileinput
+ :synopsis: Loop over standard input or a list of files.
+.. moduleauthor:: Guido van Rossum <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Fred L. Drake, Jr. <[email protected]>
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/fileinput.py`
+
+--------------
+
+This module implements a helper class and functions to quickly write a
+loop over standard input or a list of files. If you just want to read or
+write one file see :func:`open`.
+
+The typical use is::
+
+ import fileinput
+ for line in fileinput.input():
+ process(line)
+
+This iterates over the lines of all files listed in ``sys.argv[1:]``, defaulting
+to ``sys.stdin`` if the list is empty. If a filename is ``'-'``, it is also
+replaced by ``sys.stdin``. To specify an alternative list of filenames, pass it
+as the first argument to :func:`.input`. A single file name is also allowed.
+
+All files are opened in text mode by default, but you can override this by
+specifying the *mode* parameter in the call to :func:`.input` or
+:class:`FileInput()`. If an I/O error occurs during opening or reading a file,
+:exc:`IOError` is raised.
+
+If ``sys.stdin`` is used more than once, the second and further use will return
+no lines, except perhaps for interactive use, or if it has been explicitly reset
+(e.g. using ``sys.stdin.seek(0)``).
+
+Empty files are opened and immediately closed; the only time their presence in
+the list of filenames is noticeable at all is when the last file opened is
+empty.
+
+Lines are returned with any newlines intact, which means that the last line in
+a file may not have one.
+
+You can control how files are opened by providing an opening hook via the
+*openhook* parameter to :func:`fileinput.input` or :class:`FileInput()`. The
+hook must be a function that takes two arguments, *filename* and *mode*, and
+returns an accordingly opened file-like object. Two useful hooks are already
+provided by this module.
+
+The following function is the primary interface of this module:
+
+
+.. function:: input([files[, inplace[, backup[, mode[, openhook]]]]])
+
+ Create an instance of the :class:`FileInput` class. The instance will be used
+ as global state for the functions of this module, and is also returned to use
+ during iteration. The parameters to this function will be passed along to the
+ constructor of the :class:`FileInput` class.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ Added the *mode* and *openhook* parameters.
+
+The following functions use the global state created by :func:`fileinput.input`;
+if there is no active state, :exc:`RuntimeError` is raised.
+
+
+.. function:: filename()
+
+ Return the name of the file currently being read. Before the first line has
+ been read, returns ``None``.
+
+
+.. function:: fileno()
+
+ Return the integer "file descriptor" for the current file. When no file is
+ opened (before the first line and between files), returns ``-1``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. function:: lineno()
+
+ Return the cumulative line number of the line that has just been read. Before
+ the first line has been read, returns ``0``. After the last line of the last
+ file has been read, returns the line number of that line.
+
+
+.. function:: filelineno()
+
+ Return the line number in the current file. Before the first line has been
+ read, returns ``0``. After the last line of the last file has been read,
+ returns the line number of that line within the file.
+
+
+.. function:: isfirstline()
+
+ Returns true if the line just read is the first line of its file, otherwise
+ returns false.
+
+
+.. function:: isstdin()
+
+ Returns true if the last line was read from ``sys.stdin``, otherwise returns
+ false.
+
+
+.. function:: nextfile()
+
+ Close the current file so that the next iteration will read the first line from
+ the next file (if any); lines not read from the file will not count towards the
+ cumulative line count. The filename is not changed until after the first line
+ of the next file has been read. Before the first line has been read, this
+ function has no effect; it cannot be used to skip the first file. After the
+ last line of the last file has been read, this function has no effect.
+
+
+.. function:: close()
+
+ Close the sequence.
+
+The class which implements the sequence behavior provided by the module is
+available for subclassing as well:
+
+
+.. class:: FileInput([files[, inplace[, backup[, mode[, openhook]]]]])
+
+ Class :class:`FileInput` is the implementation; its methods :meth:`filename`,
+ :meth:`fileno`, :meth:`lineno`, :meth:`filelineno`, :meth:`isfirstline`,
+ :meth:`isstdin`, :meth:`nextfile` and :meth:`close` correspond to the functions
+ of the same name in the module. In addition it has a :meth:`readline` method
+ which returns the next input line, and a :meth:`__getitem__` method which
+ implements the sequence behavior. The sequence must be accessed in strictly
+ sequential order; random access and :meth:`readline` cannot be mixed.
+
+ With *mode* you can specify which file mode will be passed to :func:`open`. It
+ must be one of ``'r'``, ``'rU'``, ``'U'`` and ``'rb'``.
+
+ The *openhook*, when given, must be a function that takes two arguments,
+ *filename* and *mode*, and returns an accordingly opened file-like object. You
+ cannot use *inplace* and *openhook* together.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ Added the *mode* and *openhook* parameters.
+
+**Optional in-place filtering:** if the keyword argument ``inplace=1`` is passed
+to :func:`fileinput.input` or to the :class:`FileInput` constructor, the file is
+moved to a backup file and standard output is directed to the input file (if a
+file of the same name as the backup file already exists, it will be replaced
+silently). This makes it possible to write a filter that rewrites its input
+file in place. If the *backup* parameter is given (typically as
+``backup='.<some extension>'``), it specifies the extension for the backup file,
+and the backup file remains around; by default, the extension is ``'.bak'`` and
+it is deleted when the output file is closed. In-place filtering is disabled
+when standard input is read.
+
+.. note::
+
+ The current implementation does not work for MS-DOS 8+3 filesystems.
+
+
+The two following opening hooks are provided by this module:
+
+.. function:: hook_compressed(filename, mode)
+
+ Transparently opens files compressed with gzip and bzip2 (recognized by the
+ extensions ``'.gz'`` and ``'.bz2'``) using the :mod:`gzip` and :mod:`bz2`
+ modules. If the filename extension is not ``'.gz'`` or ``'.bz2'``, the file is
+ opened normally (ie, using :func:`open` without any decompression).
+
+ Usage example: ``fi = fileinput.FileInput(openhook=fileinput.hook_compressed)``
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. function:: hook_encoded(encoding)
+
+ Returns a hook which opens each file with :func:`codecs.open`, using the given
+ *encoding* to read the file.
+
+ Usage example: ``fi =
+ fileinput.FileInput(openhook=fileinput.hook_encoded("iso-8859-1"))``
+
+ .. note::
+
+ With this hook, :class:`FileInput` might return Unicode strings depending on the
+ specified *encoding*.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5

+:mod:`fl` --- FORMS library for graphical user interfaces
+=========================================================
+
+.. module:: fl
+ :platform: IRIX
+ :synopsis: FORMS library for applications with graphical user interfaces.
+ :deprecated:
+
+
+.. deprecated:: 2.6
+ The :mod:`fl` module has been removed in Python 3.
+
+
+.. index::
+ single: FORMS Library
+ single: Overmars, Mark
+
+This module provides an interface to the FORMS Library by Mark Overmars. The
+source for the library can be retrieved by anonymous ftp from host
+``ftp.cs.ruu.nl``, directory :file:`SGI/FORMS`. It was last tested with version
+2.0b.
+
+Most functions are literal translations of their C equivalents, dropping the
+initial ``fl_`` from their name. Constants used by the library are defined in
+module :mod:`FL` described below.
+
+The creation of objects is a little different in Python than in C: instead of
+the 'current form' maintained by the library to which new FORMS objects are
+added, all functions that add a FORMS object to a form are methods of the Python
+object representing the form. Consequently, there are no Python equivalents for
+the C functions :c:func:`fl_addto_form` and :c:func:`fl_end_form`, and the
+equivalent of :c:func:`fl_bgn_form` is called :func:`fl.make_form`.
+
+Watch out for the somewhat confusing terminology: FORMS uses the word
+:dfn:`object` for the buttons, sliders etc. that you can place in a form. In
+Python, 'object' means any value. The Python interface to FORMS introduces two
+new Python object types: form objects (representing an entire form) and FORMS
+objects (representing one button, slider etc.). Hopefully this isn't too
+confusing.
+
+There are no 'free objects' in the Python interface to FORMS, nor is there an
+easy way to add object classes written in Python. The FORMS interface to GL
+event handling is available, though, so you can mix FORMS with pure GL windows.
+
+**Please note:** importing :mod:`fl` implies a call to the GL function
+:c:func:`foreground` and to the FORMS routine :c:func:`fl_init`.
+
+
+.. _fl-functions:
+
+Functions Defined in Module :mod:`fl`
+-------------------------------------
+
+Module :mod:`fl` defines the following functions. For more information about
+what they do, see the description of the equivalent C function in the FORMS
+documentation:
+
+
+.. function:: make_form(type, width, height)
+
+ Create a form with given type, width and height. This returns a :dfn:`form`
+ object, whose methods are described below.
+
+
+.. function:: do_forms()
+
+ The standard FORMS main loop. Returns a Python object representing the FORMS
+ object needing interaction, or the special value :const:`FL.EVENT`.
+
+
+.. function:: check_forms()
+
+ Check for FORMS events. Returns what :func:`do_forms` above returns, or
+ ``None`` if there is no event that immediately needs interaction.
+
+
+.. function:: set_event_call_back(function)
+
+ Set the event callback function.
+
+
+.. function:: set_graphics_mode(rgbmode, doublebuffering)
+
+ Set the graphics modes.
+
+
+.. function:: get_rgbmode()
+
+ Return the current rgb mode. This is the value of the C global variable
+ :c:data:`fl_rgbmode`.
+
+
+.. function:: show_message(str1, str2, str3)
+
+ Show a dialog box with a three-line message and an OK button.
+
+
+.. function:: show_question(str1, str2, str3)
+
+ Show a dialog box with a three-line message and YES and NO buttons. It returns
+ ``1`` if the user pressed YES, ``0`` if NO.
+
+
+.. function:: show_choice(str1, str2, str3, but1[, but2[, but3]])
+
+ Show a dialog box with a three-line message and up to three buttons. It returns
+ the number of the button clicked by the user (``1``, ``2`` or ``3``).
+
+
+.. function:: show_input(prompt, default)
+
+ Show a dialog box with a one-line prompt message and text field in which the
+ user can enter a string. The second argument is the default input string. It
+ returns the string value as edited by the user.
+
+
+.. function:: show_file_selector(message, directory, pattern, default)
+
+ Show a dialog box in which the user can select a file. It returns the absolute
+ filename selected by the user, or ``None`` if the user presses Cancel.
+
+
+.. function:: get_directory()
+ get_pattern()
+ get_filename()
+
+ These functions return the directory, pattern and filename (the tail part only)
+ selected by the user in the last :func:`show_file_selector` call.
+
+
+.. function:: qdevice(dev)
+ unqdevice(dev)
+ isqueued(dev)
+ qtest()
+ qread()
+ qreset()
+ qenter(dev, val)
+ get_mouse()
+ tie(button, valuator1, valuator2)
+
+ These functions are the FORMS interfaces to the corresponding GL functions. Use
+ these if you want to handle some GL events yourself when using
+ :func:`fl.do_events`. When a GL event is detected that FORMS cannot handle,
+ :func:`fl.do_forms` returns the special value :const:`FL.EVENT` and you should
+ call :func:`fl.qread` to read the event from the queue. Don't use the
+ equivalent GL functions!
+
+ .. \funcline{blkqread}{?}

+ object, and the callback argument. (FORMS objects without a callback function
+ are returned by :func:`fl.do_forms` or :func:`fl.check_forms` when they need
+ interaction.) Call this method without arguments to remove the callback
+ function.

+
+This module provides access to the IRIS *Font Manager* library. It is
+available only on Silicon Graphics machines. See also: *4Sight User's Guide*,
+section 1, chapter 5: "Using the IRIS Font Manager."
+
+This is not yet a full interface to the IRIS Font Manager. Among the unsupported
+features are: matrix operations; cache operations; character operations (use
+string operations instead); some details of font info; individual glyph metrics;
+and printer matching.
+
+It supports the following operations:
+
+
+.. function:: init()
+
+ Initialization function. Calls :c:func:`fminit`. It is normally not necessary to
+ call this function, since it is called automatically the first time the
+ :mod:`fm` module is imported.
+
+
+.. function:: findfont(fontname)
+
+ Return a font handle object. Calls ``fmfindfont(fontname)``.
+
+
+.. function:: enumerate()
+
+ Returns a list of available font names. This is an interface to
+ :c:func:`fmenumerate`.
+
+
+.. function:: prstr(string)
+
+ Render a string using the current font (see the :func:`setfont` font handle
+ method below). Calls ``fmprstr(string)``.
+
+
+.. function:: setpath(string)
+
+ Sets the font search path. Calls ``fmsetpath(string)``. (XXX Does not work!?!)
+
+
+.. function:: fontpath()
+
+ Returns the current font search path.
+
+Font handle objects support the following operations:
+
+
+.. method:: font handle.scalefont(factor)
+
+ Returns a handle for a scaled version of this font. Calls ``fmscalefont(fh,
+ factor)``.
+
+
+.. method:: font handle.setfont()
+
+ Makes this font the current font. Note: the effect is undone silently when the
+ font handle object is deleted. Calls ``fmsetfont(fh)``.
+
+
+.. method:: font handle.getfontname()
+
+ Returns this font's name. Calls ``fmgetfontname(fh)``.
+
+
+.. method:: font handle.getcomment()
+
+ Returns the comment string associated with this font. Raises an exception if
+ there is none. Calls ``fmgetcomment(fh)``.
+
+
+.. method:: font handle.getfontinfo()
+
+ Returns a tuple giving some pertinent data about this font. This is an interface
+ to ``fmgetfontinfo()``. The returned tuple contains the following numbers:
+ ``(printermatched, fixed_width, xorig, yorig, xsize, ysize, height, nglyphs)``.
+
+
+.. method:: font handle.getstrwidth(string)
+
+ Returns the width, in pixels, of *string* when drawn in this font. Calls

+
+
+.. index:: single: filenames; wildcard expansion
+
+.. index:: module: re
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/fnmatch.py`
+
+--------------
+
+This module provides support for Unix shell-style wildcards, which are *not* the
+same as regular expressions (which are documented in the :mod:`re` module). The
+special characters used in shell-style wildcards are:
+
++------------+------------------------------------+
+| Pattern | Meaning |
++============+====================================+
+| ``*`` | matches everything |
++------------+------------------------------------+
+| ``?`` | matches any single character |
++------------+------------------------------------+
+| ``[seq]`` | matches any character in *seq* |
++------------+------------------------------------+
+| ``[!seq]`` | matches any character not in *seq* |
++------------+------------------------------------+
+
+For a literal match, wrap the meta-characters in brackets.
+For example, ``'[?]'`` matches the character ``'?'``.
+
+.. index:: module: glob
+
+Note that the filename separator (``'/'`` on Unix) is *not* special to this
+module. See module :mod:`glob` for pathname expansion (:mod:`glob` uses
+:func:`fnmatch` to match pathname segments). Similarly, filenames starting with
+a period are not special for this module, and are matched by the ``*`` and ``?``
+patterns.
+
+
+.. function:: fnmatch(filename, pattern)
+
+ Test whether the *filename* string matches the *pattern* string, returning
+ :const:`True` or :const:`False`. If the operating system is case-insensitive,
+ then both parameters will be normalized to all lower- or upper-case before
+ the comparison is performed. :func:`fnmatchcase` can be used to perform a
+ case-sensitive comparison, regardless of whether that's standard for the
+ operating system.
+
+ This example will print all file names in the current directory with the
+ extension ``.txt``::
+
+ import fnmatch
+ import os
+
+ for file in os.listdir('.'):
+ if fnmatch.fnmatch(file, '*.txt'):
+ print file
+
+
+.. function:: fnmatchcase(filename, pattern)
+
+ Test whether *filename* matches *pattern*, returning :const:`True` or
+ :const:`False`; the comparison is case-sensitive.
+
+
+.. function:: filter(names, pattern)
+
+ Return the subset of the list of *names* that match *pattern*. It is the same as
+ ``[n for n in names if fnmatch(n, pattern)]``, but implemented more efficiently.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+
+.. function:: translate(pattern)
+
+ Return the shell-style *pattern* converted to a regular expression.
+
+ Example:

+:mod:`formatter` --- Generic output formatting
+==============================================
+
+.. module:: formatter
+ :synopsis: Generic output formatter and device interface.
+
+
+.. index:: single: HTMLParser (class in htmllib)
+
+This module supports two interface definitions, each with multiple
+implementations. The *formatter* interface is used by the :class:`HTMLParser`
+class of the :mod:`htmllib` module, and the *writer* interface is required by
+the formatter interface.
+
+Formatter objects transform an abstract flow of formatting events into specific
+output events on writer objects. Formatters manage several stack structures to
+allow various properties of a writer object to be changed and restored; writers
+need not be able to handle relative changes nor any sort of "change back"
+operation. Specific writer properties which may be controlled via formatter
+objects are horizontal alignment, font, and left margin indentations. A
+mechanism is provided which supports providing arbitrary, non-exclusive style
+settings to a writer as well. Additional interfaces facilitate formatting
+events which are not reversible, such as paragraph separation.
+
+Writer objects encapsulate device interfaces. Abstract devices, such as file
+formats, are supported as well as physical devices. The provided
+implementations all work with abstract devices. The interface makes available
+mechanisms for setting the properties which formatter objects manage and
+inserting data into the output.
+
+
+.. _formatter-interface:
+
+The Formatter Interface
+-----------------------
+
+Interfaces to create formatters are dependent on the specific formatter class
+being instantiated. The interfaces described below are the required interfaces
+which all formatters must support once initialized.
+
+One data element is defined at the module level:
+
+
+.. data:: AS_IS
+
+ Value which can be used in the font specification passed to the ``push_font()``
+ method described below, or as the new value to any other ``push_property()``
+ method. Pushing the ``AS_IS`` value allows the corresponding ``pop_property()``
+ method to be called without having to track whether the property was changed.
+
+The following attributes are defined for formatter instance objects:
+
+
+.. attribute:: formatter.writer
+
+ The writer instance with which the formatter interacts.
+
+
+.. method:: formatter.end_paragraph(blanklines)
+
+ Close any open paragraphs and insert at least *blanklines* before the next
+ paragraph.
+
+
+.. method:: formatter.add_line_break()
+
+ Add a hard line break if one does not already exist. This does not break the
+ logical paragraph.
+
+
+.. method:: formatter.add_hor_rule(*args, **kw)
+
+ Insert a horizontal rule in the output. A hard break is inserted if there is
+ data in the current paragraph, but the logical paragraph is not broken. The
+ arguments and keywords are passed on to the writer's :meth:`send_line_break`
+ method.
+
+
+.. method:: formatter.add_flowing_data(data)
+
+ Provide data which should be formatted with collapsed whitespace. Whitespace
+ from preceding and successive calls to :meth:`add_flowing_data` is considered as
+ well when the whitespace collapse is performed. The data which is passed to
+ this method is expected to be word-wrapped by the output device. Note that any
+ word-wrapping still must be performed by the writer object due to the need to
+ rely on device and font information.
+
+
+.. method:: formatter.add_literal_data(data)
+
+ Provide data which should be passed to the writer unchanged. Whitespace,
+ including newline and tab characters, are considered legal in the value of
+ *data*.
+
+
+.. method:: formatter.add_label_data(format, counter)
+
+ Insert a label which should be placed to the left of the current left margin.
+ This should be used for constructing bulleted or numbered lists. If the
+ *format* value is a string, it is interpreted as a format specification for
+ *counter*, which should be an integer. The result of this formatting becomes the
+ value of the label; if *format* is not a string it is used as the label value
+ directly. The label value is passed as the only argument to the writer's
+ :meth:`send_label_data` method. Interpretation of non-string label values is
+ dependent on the associated writer.
+
+ Format specifications are strings which, in combination with a counter value,
+ are used to compute label values. Each character in the format string is copied
+ to the label value, with some characters recognized to indicate a transform on
+ the counter value. Specifically, the character ``'1'`` represents the counter
+ value formatter as an Arabic number, the characters ``'A'`` and ``'a'``
+ represent alphabetic representations of the counter value in upper and lower
+ case, respectively, and ``'I'`` and ``'i'`` represent the counter value in Roman
+ numerals, in upper and lower case. Note that the alphabetic and roman
+ transforms require that the counter value be greater than zero.
+
+
+.. method:: formatter.flush_softspace()
+
+ Send any pending whitespace buffered from a previous call to
+ :meth:`add_flowing_data` to the associated writer object. This should be called
+ before any direct manipulation of the writer object.
+
+
+.. method:: formatter.push_alignment(align)
+
+ Push a new alignment setting onto the alignment stack. This may be
+ :const:`AS_IS` if no change is desired. If the alignment value is changed from
+ the previous setting, the writer's :meth:`new_alignment` method is called with
+ the *align* value.
+
+
+.. method:: formatter.pop_alignment()
+
+ Restore the previous alignment.
+
+
+.. method:: formatter.push_font((size, italic, bold, teletype))
+
+ Change some or all font properties of the writer object. Properties which are
+ not set to :const:`AS_IS` are set to the values passed in while others are
+ maintained at their current settings. The writer's :meth:`new_font` method is
+ called with the fully resolved font specification.
+
+
+.. method:: formatter.pop_font()
+
+ Restore the previous font.
+
+
+.. method:: formatter.push_margin(margin)
+
+ Increase the number of left margin indentations by one, associating the logical
+ tag *margin* with the new indentation. The initial margin level is ``0``.
+ Changed values of the logical tag must be true values; false values other than
+ :const:`AS_IS` are not sufficient to change the margin.
+
+
+.. method:: formatter.pop_margin()
+
+ Restore the previous margin.
+
+
+.. method:: formatter.push_style(*styles)
+
+ Push any number of arbitrary style specifications. All styles are pushed onto
+ the styles stack in order. A tuple representing the entire stack, including
+ :const:`AS_IS` values, is passed to the writer's :meth:`new_styles` method.
+
+
+.. method:: formatter.pop_style([n=1])
+
+ Pop the last *n* style specifications passed to :meth:`push_style`. A tuple
+ representing the revised stack, including :const:`AS_IS` values, is passed to
+ the writer's :meth:`new_styles` method.
+
+
+.. method:: formatter.set_spacing(spacing)
+
+ Set the spacing style for the writer.
+
+
+.. method:: formatter.assert_line_data([flag=1])
+
+ Inform the formatter that data has been added to the current paragraph
+ out-of-band. This should be used when the writer has been manipulated
+ directly. The optional *flag* argument can be set to false if the writer
+ manipulations produced a hard line break at the end of the output.
+
+
+.. _formatter-impls:
+
+Formatter Implementations
+-------------------------
+
+Two implementations of formatter objects are provided by this module. Most
+applications may use one of these classes without modification or subclassing.
+
+
+.. class:: NullFormatter([writer])
+
+ A formatter which does nothing. If *writer* is omitted, a :class:`NullWriter`
+ instance is created. No methods of the writer are called by
+ :class:`NullFormatter` instances. Implementations should inherit from this
+ class if implementing a writer interface but don't need to inherit any
+ implementation.
+
+
+.. class:: AbstractFormatter(writer)
+
+ The standard formatter. This implementation has demonstrated wide applicability
+ to many writers, and may be used directly in most circumstances. It has been
+ used to implement a full-featured World Wide Web browser.
+
+
+.. _writer-interface:
+
+The Writer Interface
+--------------------
+
+Interfaces to create writers are dependent on the specific writer class being
+instantiated. The interfaces described below are the required interfaces which
+all writers must support once initialized. Note that while most applications can
+use the :class:`AbstractFormatter` class as a formatter, the writer must
+typically be provided by the application.
+
+
+.. method:: writer.flush()
+
+ Flush any buffered output or device control events.
+
+
+.. method:: writer.new_alignment(align)
+
+ Set the alignment style. The *align* value can be any object, but by convention
+ is a string or ``None``, where ``None`` indicates that the writer's "preferred"
+ alignment should be used. Conventional *align* values are ``'left'``,
+ ``'center'``, ``'right'``, and ``'justify'``.
+
+
+.. method:: writer.new_font(font)
+
+ Set the font style. The value of *font* will be ``None``, indicating that the
+ device's default font should be used, or a tuple of the form ``(size,
+ italic, bold, teletype)``. Size will be a string indicating the size of
+ font that should be used; specific strings and their interpretation must be
+ defined by the application. The *italic*, *bold*, and *teletype* values are
+ Boolean values specifying which of those font attributes should be used.
+
+
+.. method:: writer.new_margin(margin, level)
+
+ Set the margin level to the integer *level* and the logical tag to *margin*.
+ Interpretation of the logical tag is at the writer's discretion; the only
+ restriction on the value of the logical tag is that it not be a false value for
+ non-zero values of *level*.
+
+
+.. method:: writer.new_spacing(spacing)
+
+ Set the spacing style to *spacing*.
+
+
+.. method:: writer.new_styles(styles)
+
+ Set additional styles. The *styles* value is a tuple of arbitrary values; the
+ value :const:`AS_IS` should be ignored. The *styles* tuple may be interpreted
+ either as a set or as a stack depending on the requirements of the application
+ and writer implementation.
+
+
+.. method:: writer.send_line_break()
+
+ Break the current line.
+
+
+.. method:: writer.send_paragraph(blankline)
+
+ Produce a paragraph separation of at least *blankline* blank lines, or the
+ equivalent. The *blankline* value will be an integer. Note that the
+ implementation will receive a call to :meth:`send_line_break` before this call
+ if a line break is needed; this method should not include ending the last line
+ of the paragraph. It is only responsible for vertical spacing between
+ paragraphs.
+
+
+.. method:: writer.send_hor_rule(*args, **kw)
+
+ Display a horizontal rule on the output device. The arguments to this method
+ are entirely application- and writer-specific, and should be interpreted with
+ care. The method implementation may assume that a line break has already been
+ issued via :meth:`send_line_break`.
+
+
+.. method:: writer.send_flowing_data(data)
+
+ Output character data which may be word-wrapped and re-flowed as needed. Within
+ any sequence of calls to this method, the writer may assume that spans of
+ multiple whitespace characters have been collapsed to single space characters.
+
+
+.. method:: writer.send_literal_data(data)
+
+ Output character data which has already been formatted for display. Generally,
+ this should be interpreted to mean that line breaks indicated by newline
+ characters should be preserved and no new line breaks should be introduced. The
+ data may contain embedded newline and tab characters, unlike data provided to
+ the :meth:`send_formatted_data` interface.
+
+
+.. method:: writer.send_label_data(data)
+
+ Set *data* to the left of the current left margin, if possible. The value of
+ *data* is not restricted; treatment of non-string values is entirely
+ application- and writer-dependent. This method will only be called at the
+ beginning of a line.
+
+
+.. _writer-impls:
+
+Writer Implementations
+----------------------
+
+Three implementations of the writer object interface are provided as examples by
+this module. Most applications will need to derive new writer classes from the
+:class:`NullWriter` class.
+
+
+.. class:: NullWriter()
+
+ A writer which only provides the interface definition; no actions are taken on
+ any methods. This should be the base class for all writers which do not need to
+ inherit any implementation methods.
+
+
+.. class:: AbstractWriter()
+
+ A writer which can be used in debugging formatters, but not much else. Each
+ method simply announces itself by printing its name and arguments on standard
+ output.
+
+
+.. class:: DumbWriter(file=None, maxcol=72)
+
+ Simple writer class which writes output on the file object passed in as *file*
+ or, if *file* is None, on standard output. The output is simply word-wrapped
+ to the number of columns specified by *maxcol*. This class is suitable for
+ reflowing a sequence of paragraphs.

+:mod:`fpectl` --- Floating point exception control
+==================================================
+
+.. module:: fpectl
+ :platform: Unix
+ :synopsis: Provide control for floating point exception handling.
+.. moduleauthor:: Lee Busby <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Lee Busby <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. note::
+
+ The :mod:`fpectl` module is not built by default, and its usage is discouraged
+ and may be dangerous except in the hands of experts. See also the section
+ :ref:`fpectl-limitations` on limitations for more details.
+
+.. index:: single: IEEE-754
+
+Most computers carry out floating point operations in conformance with the
+so-called IEEE-754 standard. On any real computer, some floating point
+operations produce results that cannot be expressed as a normal floating point
+value. For example, try ::
+
+ >>> import math
+ >>> math.exp(1000)
+ inf
+ >>> math.exp(1000) / math.exp(1000)
+ nan
+
+(The example above will work on many platforms. DEC Alpha may be one exception.)
+"Inf" is a special, non-numeric value in IEEE-754 that stands for "infinity",
+and "nan" means "not a number." Note that, other than the non-numeric results,
+nothing special happened when you asked Python to carry out those calculations.
+That is in fact the default behaviour prescribed in the IEEE-754 standard, and
+if it works for you, stop reading now.
+
+In some circumstances, it would be better to raise an exception and stop
+processing at the point where the faulty operation was attempted. The
+:mod:`fpectl` module is for use in that situation. It provides control over
+floating point units from several hardware manufacturers, allowing the user to
+turn on the generation of :const:`SIGFPE` whenever any of the IEEE-754
+exceptions Division by Zero, Overflow, or Invalid Operation occurs. In tandem
+with a pair of wrapper macros that are inserted into the C code comprising your
+python system, :const:`SIGFPE` is trapped and converted into the Python
+:exc:`FloatingPointError` exception.
+
+The :mod:`fpectl` module defines the following functions and may raise the given
+exception:
+
+
+.. function:: turnon_sigfpe()
+
+ Turn on the generation of :const:`SIGFPE`, and set up an appropriate signal
+ handler.
+
+
+.. function:: turnoff_sigfpe()
+
+ Reset default handling of floating point exceptions.
+
+
+.. exception:: FloatingPointError
+
+ After :func:`turnon_sigfpe` has been executed, a floating point operation that
+ raises one of the IEEE-754 exceptions Division by Zero, Overflow, or Invalid
+ operation will in turn raise this standard Python exception.
+
+
+.. _fpectl-example:
+
+Example
+-------
+
+The following example demonstrates how to start up and test operation of the
+:mod:`fpectl` module. ::
+
+ >>> import fpectl
+ >>> import fpetest
+ >>> fpectl.turnon_sigfpe()
+ >>> fpetest.test()
+ overflow PASS
+ FloatingPointError: Overflow
+
+ div by 0 PASS
+ FloatingPointError: Division by zero
+ [ more output from test elided ]
+ >>> import math
+ >>> math.exp(1000)
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
+ FloatingPointError: in math_1
+
+
+.. _fpectl-limitations:
+
+Limitations and other considerations
+------------------------------------
+
+Setting up a given processor to trap IEEE-754 floating point errors currently
+requires custom code on a per-architecture basis. You may have to modify
+:mod:`fpectl` to control your particular hardware.
+
+Conversion of an IEEE-754 exception to a Python exception requires that the
+wrapper macros ``PyFPE_START_PROTECT`` and ``PyFPE_END_PROTECT`` be inserted
+into your code in an appropriate fashion. Python itself has been modified to
+support the :mod:`fpectl` module, but many other codes of interest to numerical
+analysts have not.
+
+The :mod:`fpectl` module is not thread-safe.
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ Some files in the source distribution may be interesting in learning more about
+ how this module operates. The include file :source:`Include/pyfpe.h` discusses the
+ implementation of this module at some length. :source:`Modules/fpetestmodule.c`
+ gives several examples of use. Many additional examples can be found in
+ :source:`Objects/floatobject.c`.

+:mod:`fractions` --- Rational numbers
+=====================================
+
+.. module:: fractions
+ :synopsis: Rational numbers.
+.. moduleauthor:: Jeffrey Yasskin <jyasskin at gmail.com>
+.. sectionauthor:: Jeffrey Yasskin <jyasskin at gmail.com>
+.. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/fractions.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`fractions` module provides support for rational number arithmetic.
+
+
+A Fraction instance can be constructed from a pair of integers, from
+another rational number, or from a string.
+
+.. class:: Fraction(numerator=0, denominator=1)
+ Fraction(other_fraction)
+ Fraction(float)
+ Fraction(decimal)
+ Fraction(string)
+
+ The first version requires that *numerator* and *denominator* are instances
+ of :class:`numbers.Rational` and returns a new :class:`Fraction` instance
+ with value ``numerator/denominator``. If *denominator* is :const:`0`, it
+ raises a :exc:`ZeroDivisionError`. The second version requires that
+ *other_fraction* is an instance of :class:`numbers.Rational` and returns a
+ :class:`Fraction` instance with the same value. The next two versions accept
+ either a :class:`float` or a :class:`decimal.Decimal` instance, and return a
+ :class:`Fraction` instance with exactly the same value. Note that due to the
+ usual issues with binary floating-point (see :ref:`tut-fp-issues`), the
+ argument to ``Fraction(1.1)`` is not exactly equal to 11/10, and so
+ ``Fraction(1.1)`` does *not* return ``Fraction(11, 10)`` as one might expect.
+ (But see the documentation for the :meth:`limit_denominator` method below.)
+ The last version of the constructor expects a string or unicode instance.
+ The usual form for this instance is::
+
+ [sign] numerator ['/' denominator]
+
+ where the optional ``sign`` may be either '+' or '-' and
+ ``numerator`` and ``denominator`` (if present) are strings of
+ decimal digits. In addition, any string that represents a finite
+ value and is accepted by the :class:`float` constructor is also
+ accepted by the :class:`Fraction` constructor. In either form the
+ input string may also have leading and/or trailing whitespace.
+ Here are some examples::
+
+ >>> from fractions import Fraction
+ >>> Fraction(16, -10)
+ Fraction(-8, 5)
+ >>> Fraction(123)
+ Fraction(123, 1)
+ >>> Fraction()
+ Fraction(0, 1)
+ >>> Fraction('3/7')
+ Fraction(3, 7)
+ >>> Fraction(' -3/7 ')
+ Fraction(-3, 7)
+ >>> Fraction('1.414213 \t\n')
+ Fraction(1414213, 1000000)
+ >>> Fraction('-.125')
+ Fraction(-1, 8)
+ >>> Fraction('7e-6')
+ Fraction(7, 1000000)
+ >>> Fraction(2.25)
+ Fraction(9, 4)
+ >>> Fraction(1.1)
+ Fraction(2476979795053773, 2251799813685248)
+ >>> from decimal import Decimal
+ >>> Fraction(Decimal('1.1'))
+ Fraction(11, 10)
+
+
+ The :class:`Fraction` class inherits from the abstract base class
+ :class:`numbers.Rational`, and implements all of the methods and
+ operations from that class. :class:`Fraction` instances are hashable,
+ and should be treated as immutable. In addition,
+ :class:`Fraction` has the following methods:
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ The :class:`Fraction` constructor now accepts :class:`float` and
+ :class:`decimal.Decimal` instances.
+
+
+ .. method:: from_float(flt)
+
+ This class method constructs a :class:`Fraction` representing the exact
+ value of *flt*, which must be a :class:`float`. Beware that
+ ``Fraction.from_float(0.3)`` is not the same value as ``Fraction(3, 10)``
+
+ .. note:: From Python 2.7 onwards, you can also construct a
+ :class:`Fraction` instance directly from a :class:`float`.
+
+
+ .. method:: from_decimal(dec)
+
+ This class method constructs a :class:`Fraction` representing the exact
+ value of *dec*, which must be a :class:`decimal.Decimal`.
+
+ .. note:: From Python 2.7 onwards, you can also construct a
+ :class:`Fraction` instance directly from a :class:`decimal.Decimal`
+ instance.
+
+
+ .. method:: limit_denominator(max_denominator=1000000)
+
+ Finds and returns the closest :class:`Fraction` to ``self`` that has
+ denominator at most max_denominator. This method is useful for finding
+ rational approximations to a given floating-point number:
+
+ >>> from fractions import Fraction
+ >>> Fraction('3.1415926535897932').limit_denominator(1000)
+ Fraction(355, 113)
+
+ or for recovering a rational number that's represented as a float:
+
+ >>> from math import pi, cos
+ >>> Fraction(cos(pi/3))
+ Fraction(4503599627370497, 9007199254740992)
+ >>> Fraction(cos(pi/3)).limit_denominator()
+ Fraction(1, 2)
+ >>> Fraction(1.1).limit_denominator()
+ Fraction(11, 10)
+
+
+.. function:: gcd(a, b)
+
+ Return the greatest common divisor of the integers *a* and *b*. If either
+ *a* or *b* is nonzero, then the absolute value of ``gcd(a, b)`` is the
+ largest integer that divides both *a* and *b*. ``gcd(a,b)`` has the same
+ sign as *b* if *b* is nonzero; otherwise it takes the sign of *a*. ``gcd(0,
+ 0)`` returns ``0``.

+:mod:`FrameWork` --- Interactive application framework
+======================================================
+
+.. module:: FrameWork
+ :platform: Mac
+ :synopsis: Interactive application framework.
+ :deprecated:
+
+
+The :mod:`FrameWork` module contains classes that together provide a framework
+for an interactive Macintosh application. The programmer builds an application
+by creating subclasses that override various methods of the bases classes,
+thereby implementing the functionality wanted. Overriding functionality can
+often be done on various different levels, i.e. to handle clicks in a single
+dialog window in a non-standard way it is not necessary to override the complete
+event handling.
+
+.. note::
+
+ This module has been removed in Python 3.x.
+
+Work on the :mod:`FrameWork` has pretty much stopped, now that :mod:`PyObjC` is
+available for full Cocoa access from Python, and the documentation describes
+only the most important functionality, and not in the most logical manner at
+that. Examine the source or the examples for more details. The following are
+some comments posted on the MacPython newsgroup about the strengths and
+limitations of :mod:`FrameWork`:
+
+
+.. epigraph::
+
+ The strong point of :mod:`FrameWork` is that it allows you to break into the
+ control-flow at many different places. :mod:`W`, for instance, uses a different
+ way to enable/disable menus and that plugs right in leaving the rest intact.
+ The weak points of :mod:`FrameWork` are that it has no abstract command
+ interface (but that shouldn't be difficult), that its dialog support is minimal
+ and that its control/toolbar support is non-existent.
+
+The :mod:`FrameWork` module defines the following functions:
+
+
+.. function:: Application()
+
+ An object representing the complete application. See below for a description of
+ the methods. The default :meth:`__init__` routine creates an empty window
+ dictionary and a menu bar with an apple menu.
+
+
+.. function:: MenuBar()
+
+ An object representing the menubar. This object is usually not created by the
+ user.
+
+
+.. function:: Menu(bar, title[, after])
+
+ An object representing a menu. Upon creation you pass the ``MenuBar`` the menu
+ appears in, the *title* string and a position (1-based) *after* where the menu
+ should appear (default: at the end).
+
+
+.. function:: MenuItem(menu, title[, shortcut, callback])
+
+ Create a menu item object. The arguments are the menu to create, the item title
+ string and optionally the keyboard shortcut and a callback routine. The callback
+ is called with the arguments menu-id, item number within menu (1-based), current
+ front window and the event record.
+
+ Instead of a callable object the callback can also be a string. In this case
+ menu selection causes the lookup of a method in the topmost window and the
+ application. The method name is the callback string with ``'domenu_'``
+ prepended.
+
+ Calling the ``MenuBar`` :meth:`fixmenudimstate` method sets the correct dimming
+ for all menu items based on the current front window.
+
+
+.. function:: Separator(menu)
+
+ Add a separator to the end of a menu.
+
+
+.. function:: SubMenu(menu, label)
+
+ Create a submenu named *label* under menu *menu*. The menu object is returned.
+
+
+.. function:: Window(parent)
+
+ Creates a (modeless) window. *Parent* is the application object to which the
+ window belongs. The window is not displayed until later.
+
+
+.. function:: DialogWindow(parent)
+
+ Creates a modeless dialog window.
+
+
+.. function:: windowbounds(width, height)
+
+ Return a ``(left, top, right, bottom)`` tuple suitable for creation of a window
+ of given width and height. The window will be staggered with respect to previous
+ windows, and an attempt is made to keep the whole window on-screen. However, the
+ window will however always be the exact size given, so parts may be offscreen.
+
+
+.. function:: setwatchcursor()
+
+ Set the mouse cursor to a watch.
+
+
+.. function:: setarrowcursor()
+
+ Set the mouse cursor to an arrow.
+
+
+.. _application-objects:
+
+Application Objects
+-------------------
+
+Application objects have the following methods, among others:
+
+
+.. method:: Application.makeusermenus()
+
+ Override this method if you need menus in your application. Append the menus to
+ the attribute :attr:`menubar`.
+
+
+.. method:: Application.getabouttext()
+
+ Override this method to return a text string describing your application.
+ Alternatively, override the :meth:`do_about` method for more elaborate "about"
+ messages.
+
+
+.. method:: Application.mainloop([mask[, wait]])
+
+ This routine is the main event loop, call it to set your application rolling.
+ *Mask* is the mask of events you want to handle, *wait* is the number of ticks
+ you want to leave to other concurrent application (default 0, which is probably
+ not a good idea). While raising *self* to exit the mainloop is still supported
+ it is not recommended: call ``self._quit()`` instead.
+
+ The event loop is split into many small parts, each of which can be overridden.
+ The default methods take care of dispatching events to windows and dialogs,
+ handling drags and resizes, Apple Events, events for non-FrameWork windows, etc.
+
+ In general, all event handlers should return ``1`` if the event is fully handled
+ and ``0`` otherwise (because the front window was not a FrameWork window, for
+ instance). This is needed so that update events and such can be passed on to
+ other windows like the Sioux console window. Calling :func:`MacOS.HandleEvent`
+ is not allowed within *our_dispatch* or its callees, since this may result in an
+ infinite loop if the code is called through the Python inner-loop event handler.
+
+
+.. method:: Application.asyncevents(onoff)
+
+ Call this method with a nonzero parameter to enable asynchronous event handling.
+ This will tell the inner interpreter loop to call the application event handler
+ *async_dispatch* whenever events are available. This will cause FrameWork window
+ updates and the user interface to remain working during long computations, but
+ will slow the interpreter down and may cause surprising results in non-reentrant
+ code (such as FrameWork itself). By default *async_dispatch* will immediately
+ call *our_dispatch* but you may override this to handle only certain events
+ asynchronously. Events you do not handle will be passed to Sioux and such.
+
+ The old on/off value is returned.
+
+
+.. method:: Application._quit()
+
+ Terminate the running :meth:`mainloop` call at the next convenient moment.
+
+
+.. method:: Application.do_char(c, event)
+
+ The user typed character *c*. The complete details of the event can be found in
+ the *event* structure. This method can also be provided in a ``Window`` object,
+ which overrides the application-wide handler if the window is frontmost.
+
+
+.. method:: Application.do_dialogevent(event)
+
+ Called early in the event loop to handle modeless dialog events. The default
+ method simply dispatches the event to the relevant dialog (not through the
+ ``DialogWindow`` object involved). Override if you need special handling of
+ dialog events (keyboard shortcuts, etc).
+
+
+.. method:: Application.idle(event)
+
+ Called by the main event loop when no events are available. The null-event is
+ passed (so you can look at mouse position, etc).
+
+
+.. _window-objects:
+
+Window Objects
+--------------
+
+Window objects have the following methods, among others:
+
+
+.. method:: Window.open()
+
+ Override this method to open a window. Store the Mac OS window-id in
+ :attr:`self.wid` and call the :meth:`do_postopen` method to register the window
+ with the parent application.
+
+
+.. method:: Window.close()
+
+ Override this method to do any special processing on window close. Call the
+ :meth:`do_postclose` method to cleanup the parent state.
+
+
+.. method:: Window.do_postresize(width, height, macoswindowid)
+
+ Called after the window is resized. Override if more needs to be done than
+ calling ``InvalRect``.
+
+
+.. method:: Window.do_contentclick(local, modifiers, event)
+
+ The user clicked in the content part of a window. The arguments are the
+ coordinates (window-relative), the key modifiers and the raw event.
+
+
+.. method:: Window.do_update(macoswindowid, event)
+
+ An update event for the window was received. Redraw the window.
+
+
+.. method:: Window.do_activate(activate, event)
+
+ The window was activated (``activate == 1``) or deactivated (``activate == 0``).
+ Handle things like focus highlighting, etc.
+
+
+.. _controlswindow-object:
+
+ControlsWindow Object
+---------------------
+
+ControlsWindow objects have the following methods besides those of ``Window``
+objects:
+
+
+.. method:: ControlsWindow.do_controlhit(window, control, pcode, event)
+
+ Part *pcode* of control *control* was hit by the user. Tracking and such has
+ already been taken care of.
+
+
+.. _scrolledwindow-object:
+
+ScrolledWindow Object
+---------------------
+
+ScrolledWindow objects are ControlsWindow objects with the following extra
+methods:
+
+
+.. method:: ScrolledWindow.scrollbars([wantx[, wanty]])
+
+ Create (or destroy) horizontal and vertical scrollbars. The arguments specify
+ which you want (default: both). The scrollbars always have minimum ``0`` and
+ maximum ``32767``.
+
+
+.. method:: ScrolledWindow.getscrollbarvalues()
+
+ You must supply this method. It should return a tuple ``(x, y)`` giving the
+ current position of the scrollbars (between ``0`` and ``32767``). You can return
+ ``None`` for either to indicate the whole document is visible in that direction.
+
+
+.. method:: ScrolledWindow.updatescrollbars()
+
+ Call this method when the document has changed. It will call
+ :meth:`getscrollbarvalues` and update the scrollbars.
+
+
+.. method:: ScrolledWindow.scrollbar_callback(which, what, value)
+
+ Supplied by you and called after user interaction. *which* will be ``'x'`` or
+ ``'y'``, *what* will be ``'-'``, ``'--'``, ``'set'``, ``'++'`` or ``'+'``. For
+ ``'set'``, *value* will contain the new scrollbar position.
+
+
+.. method:: ScrolledWindow.scalebarvalues(absmin, absmax, curmin, curmax)
+
+ Auxiliary method to help you calculate values to return from
+ :meth:`getscrollbarvalues`. You pass document minimum and maximum value and
+ topmost (leftmost) and bottommost (rightmost) visible values and it returns the
+ correct number or ``None``.
+
+
+.. method:: ScrolledWindow.do_activate(onoff, event)
+
+ Takes care of dimming/highlighting scrollbars when a window becomes frontmost.
+ If you override this method, call this one at the end of your method.
+
+
+.. method:: ScrolledWindow.do_postresize(width, height, window)
+
+ Moves scrollbars to the correct position. Call this method initially if you
+ override it.
+
+
+.. method:: ScrolledWindow.do_controlhit(window, control, pcode, event)
+
+ Handles scrollbar interaction. If you override it call this method first, a
+ nonzero return value indicates the hit was in the scrollbars and has been
+ handled.
+
+
+.. _dialogwindow-objects:
+
+DialogWindow Objects
+--------------------
+
+DialogWindow objects have the following methods besides those of ``Window``
+objects:
+
+
+.. method:: DialogWindow.open(resid)
+
+ Create the dialog window, from the DLOG resource with id *resid*. The dialog
+ object is stored in :attr:`self.wid`.
+
+
+.. method:: DialogWindow.do_itemhit(item, event)
+
+ Item number *item* was hit. You are responsible for redrawing toggle buttons,
+ etc.

+:mod:`ftplib` --- FTP protocol client
+=====================================
+
+.. module:: ftplib
+ :synopsis: FTP protocol client (requires sockets).
+
+
+.. index::
+ pair: FTP; protocol
+ single: FTP; ftplib (standard module)
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/ftplib.py`
+
+--------------
+
+This module defines the class :class:`FTP` and a few related items. The
+:class:`FTP` class implements the client side of the FTP protocol. You can use
+this to write Python programs that perform a variety of automated FTP jobs, such
+as mirroring other ftp servers. It is also used by the module :mod:`urllib` to
+handle URLs that use FTP. For more information on FTP (File Transfer Protocol),
+see Internet :rfc:`959`.
+
+Here's a sample session using the :mod:`ftplib` module::
+
+ >>> from ftplib import FTP
+ >>> ftp = FTP('ftp.cwi.nl') # connect to host, default port
+ >>> ftp.login() # user anonymous, passwd anonymous@
+ >>> ftp.retrlines('LIST') # list directory contents
+ total 24418
+ drwxrwsr-x 5 ftp-usr pdmaint 1536 Mar 20 09:48 .
+ dr-xr-srwt 105 ftp-usr pdmaint 1536 Mar 21 14:32 ..
+ -rw-r--r-- 1 ftp-usr pdmaint 5305 Mar 20 09:48 INDEX
+ .
+ .
+ .
+ >>> ftp.retrbinary('RETR README', open('README', 'wb').write)
+ '226 Transfer complete.'
+ >>> ftp.quit()
+
+
+The module defines the following items:
+
+.. class:: FTP([host[, user[, passwd[, acct[, timeout]]]]])
+
+ Return a new instance of the :class:`FTP` class. When *host* is given, the
+ method call ``connect(host)`` is made. When *user* is given, additionally
+ the method call ``login(user, passwd, acct)`` is made (where *passwd* and
+ *acct* default to the empty string when not given). The optional *timeout*
+ parameter specifies a timeout in seconds for blocking operations like the
+ connection attempt (if is not specified, the global default timeout setting
+ will be used).
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ *timeout* was added.
+
+
+.. class:: FTP_TLS([host[, user[, passwd[, acct[, keyfile[, certfile[, timeout]]]]]]])
+
+ A :class:`FTP` subclass which adds TLS support to FTP as described in
+ :rfc:`4217`.
+ Connect as usual to port 21 implicitly securing the FTP control connection
+ before authenticating. Securing the data connection requires the user to
+ explicitly ask for it by calling the :meth:`prot_p` method.
+ *keyfile* and *certfile* are optional -- they can contain a PEM formatted
+ private key and certificate chain file name for the SSL connection.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+ Here's a sample session using the :class:`FTP_TLS` class:
+
+ >>> from ftplib import FTP_TLS
+ >>> ftps = FTP_TLS('ftp.python.org')
+ >>> ftps.login() # login anonymously before securing control channel
+ >>> ftps.prot_p() # switch to secure data connection
+ >>> ftps.retrlines('LIST') # list directory content securely

+
+
+.. exception:: error_reply
+
+ Exception raised when an unexpected reply is received from the server.
+
+
+.. exception:: error_temp
+
+ Exception raised when an error code signifying a temporary error (response
+ codes in the range 400--499) is received.
+
+
+.. exception:: error_perm
+
+ Exception raised when an error code signifying a permanent error (response
+ codes in the range 500--599) is received.
+
+
+.. exception:: error_proto
+
+ Exception raised when a reply is received from the server that does not fit
+ the response specifications of the File Transfer Protocol, i.e. begin with a
+ digit in the range 1--5.
+
+
+.. data:: all_errors
+
+ The set of all exceptions (as a tuple) that methods of :class:`FTP`
+ instances may raise as a result of problems with the FTP connection (as
+ opposed to programming errors made by the caller). This set includes the
+ four exceptions listed above as well as :exc:`socket.error` and
+ :exc:`IOError`.
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ Module :mod:`netrc`
+ Parser for the :file:`.netrc` file format. The file :file:`.netrc` is
+ typically used by FTP clients to load user authentication information
+ before prompting the user.
+
+ .. index:: single: ftpmirror.py
+
+ The file :file:`Tools/scripts/ftpmirror.py` in the Python source distribution is
+ a script that can mirror FTP sites, or portions thereof, using the :mod:`ftplib`
+ module. It can be used as an extended example that applies this module.
+
+
+.. _ftp-objects:
+
+FTP Objects
+-----------
+
+Several methods are available in two flavors: one for handling text files and
+another for binary files. These are named for the command which is used
+followed by ``lines`` for the text version or ``binary`` for the binary version.
+
+:class:`FTP` instances have the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: FTP.set_debuglevel(level)
+
+ Set the instance's debugging level. This controls the amount of debugging
+ output printed. The default, ``0``, produces no debugging output. A value of
+ ``1`` produces a moderate amount of debugging output, generally a single line
+ per request. A value of ``2`` or higher produces the maximum amount of
+ debugging output, logging each line sent and received on the control connection.
+
+
+.. method:: FTP.connect(host[, port[, timeout]])
+
+ Connect to the given host and port. The default port number is ``21``, as
+ specified by the FTP protocol specification. It is rarely needed to specify a
+ different port number. This function should be called only once for each
+ instance; it should not be called at all if a host was given when the instance
+ was created. All other methods can only be used after a connection has been
+ made.
+
+ The optional *timeout* parameter specifies a timeout in seconds for the
+ connection attempt. If no *timeout* is passed, the global default timeout
+ setting will be used.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ *timeout* was added.
+
+
+.. method:: FTP.getwelcome()
+
+ Return the welcome message sent by the server in reply to the initial
+ connection. (This message sometimes contains disclaimers or help information
+ that may be relevant to the user.)
+
+
+.. method:: FTP.login([user[, passwd[, acct]]])
+
+ Log in as the given *user*. The *passwd* and *acct* parameters are optional and
+ default to the empty string. If no *user* is specified, it defaults to
+ ``'anonymous'``. If *user* is ``'anonymous'``, the default *passwd* is
+ ``'anonymous@'``. This function should be called only once for each instance,
+ after a connection has been established; it should not be called at all if a
+ host and user were given when the instance was created. Most FTP commands are
+ only allowed after the client has logged in. The *acct* parameter supplies
+ "accounting information"; few systems implement this.
+
+
+.. method:: FTP.abort()
+
+ Abort a file transfer that is in progress. Using this does not always work, but
+ it's worth a try.
+
+
+.. method:: FTP.sendcmd(command)
+
+ Send a simple command string to the server and return the response string.
+
+
+.. method:: FTP.voidcmd(command)
+
+ Send a simple command string to the server and handle the response. Return
+ nothing if a response code corresponding to success (codes in the range
+ 200--299) is received. Raise :exc:`error_reply` otherwise.
+
+
+.. method:: FTP.retrbinary(command, callback[, maxblocksize[, rest]])
+
+ Retrieve a file in binary transfer mode. *command* should be an appropriate
+ ``RETR`` command: ``'RETR filename'``. The *callback* function is called for
+ each block of data received, with a single string argument giving the data
+ block. The optional *maxblocksize* argument specifies the maximum chunk size to
+ read on the low-level socket object created to do the actual transfer (which
+ will also be the largest size of the data blocks passed to *callback*). A
+ reasonable default is chosen. *rest* means the same thing as in the
+ :meth:`transfercmd` method.
+
+
+.. method:: FTP.retrlines(command[, callback])
+
+ Retrieve a file or directory listing in ASCII transfer mode. *command*
+ should be an appropriate ``RETR`` command (see :meth:`retrbinary`) or a
+ command such as ``LIST``, ``NLST`` or ``MLSD`` (usually just the string
+ ``'LIST'``). ``LIST`` retrieves a list of files and information about those files.
+ ``NLST`` retrieves a list of file names. On some servers, ``MLSD`` retrieves
+ a machine readable list of files and information about those files. The *callback*
+ function is called for each line with a string argument containing the line with
+ the trailing CRLF stripped. The default *callback* prints the line to ``sys.stdout``.
+
+
+.. method:: FTP.set_pasv(boolean)
+
+ Enable "passive" mode if *boolean* is true, other disable passive mode. (In
+ Python 2.0 and before, passive mode was off by default; in Python 2.1 and later,
+ it is on by default.)
+
+
+.. method:: FTP.storbinary(command, file[, blocksize, callback, rest])
+
+ Store a file in binary transfer mode. *command* should be an appropriate
+ ``STOR`` command: ``"STOR filename"``. *file* is an open file object which is
+ read until EOF using its :meth:`read` method in blocks of size *blocksize* to
+ provide the data to be stored. The *blocksize* argument defaults to 8192.
+ *callback* is an optional single parameter callable that is called
+ on each block of data after it is sent. *rest* means the same thing as in
+ the :meth:`transfercmd` method.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.1
+ default for *blocksize* added.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ *callback* parameter added.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ *rest* parameter added.
+
+.. method:: FTP.storlines(command, file[, callback])
+
+ Store a file in ASCII transfer mode. *command* should be an appropriate
+ ``STOR`` command (see :meth:`storbinary`). Lines are read until EOF from the
+ open file object *file* using its :meth:`readline` method to provide the data to
+ be stored. *callback* is an optional single parameter callable
+ that is called on each line after it is sent.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ *callback* parameter added.
+
+
+.. method:: FTP.transfercmd(cmd[, rest])
+
+ Initiate a transfer over the data connection. If the transfer is active, send a
+ ``EPRT`` or ``PORT`` command and the transfer command specified by *cmd*, and
+ accept the connection. If the server is passive, send a ``EPSV`` or ``PASV``
+ command, connect to it, and start the transfer command. Either way, return the
+ socket for the connection.
+
+ If optional *rest* is given, a ``REST`` command is sent to the server, passing
+ *rest* as an argument. *rest* is usually a byte offset into the requested file,
+ telling the server to restart sending the file's bytes at the requested offset,
+ skipping over the initial bytes. Note however that RFC 959 requires only that
+ *rest* be a string containing characters in the printable range from ASCII code
+ 33 to ASCII code 126. The :meth:`transfercmd` method, therefore, converts
+ *rest* to a string, but no check is performed on the string's contents. If the
+ server does not recognize the ``REST`` command, an :exc:`error_reply` exception
+ will be raised. If this happens, simply call :meth:`transfercmd` without a
+ *rest* argument.
+
+
+.. method:: FTP.ntransfercmd(cmd[, rest])
+
+ Like :meth:`transfercmd`, but returns a tuple of the data connection and the
+ expected size of the data. If the expected size could not be computed, ``None``
+ will be returned as the expected size. *cmd* and *rest* means the same thing as
+ in :meth:`transfercmd`.
+
+
+.. method:: FTP.nlst(argument[, ...])
+
+ Return a list of file names as returned by the ``NLST`` command. The
+ optional *argument* is a directory to list (default is the current server
+ directory). Multiple arguments can be used to pass non-standard options to
+ the ``NLST`` command.
+
+
+.. method:: FTP.dir(argument[, ...])
+
+ Produce a directory listing as returned by the ``LIST`` command, printing it to
+ standard output. The optional *argument* is a directory to list (default is the
+ current server directory). Multiple arguments can be used to pass non-standard
+ options to the ``LIST`` command. If the last argument is a function, it is used
+ as a *callback* function as for :meth:`retrlines`; the default prints to
+ ``sys.stdout``. This method returns ``None``.
+
+
+.. method:: FTP.rename(fromname, toname)
+
+ Rename file *fromname* on the server to *toname*.
+
+
+.. method:: FTP.delete(filename)
+
+ Remove the file named *filename* from the server. If successful, returns the
+ text of the response, otherwise raises :exc:`error_perm` on permission errors or
+ :exc:`error_reply` on other errors.
+
+
+.. method:: FTP.cwd(pathname)
+
+ Set the current directory on the server.
+
+
+.. method:: FTP.mkd(pathname)
+
+ Create a new directory on the server.
+
+
+.. method:: FTP.pwd()
+
+ Return the pathname of the current directory on the server.
+
+
+.. method:: FTP.rmd(dirname)
+
+ Remove the directory named *dirname* on the server.
+
+
+.. method:: FTP.size(filename)
+
+ Request the size of the file named *filename* on the server. On success, the
+ size of the file is returned as an integer, otherwise ``None`` is returned.
+ Note that the ``SIZE`` command is not standardized, but is supported by many
+ common server implementations.
+
+
+.. method:: FTP.quit()
+
+ Send a ``QUIT`` command to the server and close the connection. This is the
+ "polite" way to close a connection, but it may raise an exception if the server
+ responds with an error to the ``QUIT`` command. This implies a call to the
+ :meth:`close` method which renders the :class:`FTP` instance useless for
+ subsequent calls (see below).
+
+
+.. method:: FTP.close()
+
+ Close the connection unilaterally. This should not be applied to an already
+ closed connection such as after a successful call to :meth:`~FTP.quit`.
+ After this call the :class:`FTP` instance should not be used any more (after
+ a call to :meth:`close` or :meth:`~FTP.quit` you cannot reopen the
+ connection by issuing another :meth:`login` method).
+
+
+FTP_TLS Objects
+---------------
+
+:class:`FTP_TLS` class inherits from :class:`FTP`, defining these additional objects:
+
+.. attribute:: FTP_TLS.ssl_version
+
+ The SSL version to use (defaults to *TLSv1*).
+
+.. method:: FTP_TLS.auth()
+
+ Set up secure control connection by using TLS or SSL, depending on what specified in :meth:`ssl_version` attribute.
+
+.. method:: FTP_TLS.prot_p()
+
+ Set up secure data connection.
+
+.. method:: FTP_TLS.prot_c()
+
+ Set up clear text data connection.

+
+
+.. function:: all(iterable)
+

+
+.. function:: basestring()
+
+ This abstract type is the superclass for :class:`str` and :class:`unicode`. It
+ cannot be called or instantiated, but it can be used to test whether an object
+ is an instance of :class:`str` or :class:`unicode`. ``isinstance(obj,
+ basestring)`` is equivalent to ``isinstance(obj, (str, unicode))``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. function:: bin(x)
+
+ Convert an integer number to a binary string. The result is a valid Python
+ expression. If *x* is not a Python :class:`int` object, it has to define an
+ :meth:`__index__` method that returns an integer.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: bool([x])
+
+ Convert a value to a Boolean, using the standard truth testing procedure. If
+ *x* is false or omitted, this returns :const:`False`; otherwise it returns
+ :const:`True`. :class:`bool` is also a class, which is a subclass of
+ :class:`int`. Class :class:`bool` cannot be subclassed further. Its only
+ instances are :const:`False` and :const:`True`.
+
+ .. index:: pair: Boolean; type
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2.1
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ If no argument is given, this function returns :const:`False`.
+
+
+.. function:: bytearray([source[, encoding[, errors]]])
+
+ Return a new array of bytes. The :class:`bytearray` type is a mutable
+ sequence of integers in the range 0 <= x < 256. It has most of the usual
+ methods of mutable sequences, described in :ref:`typesseq-mutable`, as well
+ as most methods that the :class:`str` type has, see :ref:`string-methods`.
+
+ The optional *source* parameter can be used to initialize the array in a few
+ different ways:
+
+ * If it is a *string*, you must also give the *encoding* (and optionally,
+ *errors*) parameters; :func:`bytearray` then converts the string to
+ bytes using :meth:`str.encode`.
+
+ * If it is an *integer*, the array will have that size and will be
+ initialized with null bytes.
+
+ * If it is an object conforming to the *buffer* interface, a read-only buffer
+ of the object will be used to initialize the bytes array.
+
+ * If it is an *iterable*, it must be an iterable of integers in the range
+ ``0 <= x < 256``, which are used as the initial contents of the array.
+
+ Without an argument, an array of size 0 is created.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: callable(object)
+
+ Return :const:`True` if the *object* argument appears callable,
+ :const:`False` if not. If this
+ returns true, it is still possible that a call fails, but if it is false,
+ calling *object* will never succeed. Note that classes are callable (calling a
+ class returns a new instance); class instances are callable if they have a
+ :meth:`__call__` method.
+
+
+.. function:: chr(i)
+
+ Return a string of one character whose ASCII code is the integer *i*. For
+ example, ``chr(97)`` returns the string ``'a'``. This is the inverse of
+ :func:`ord`. The argument must be in the range [0..255], inclusive;
+ :exc:`ValueError` will be raised if *i* is outside that range. See
+ also :func:`unichr`.
+
+
+.. function:: classmethod(function)
+
+ Return a class method for *function*.
+
+ A class method receives the class as implicit first argument, just like an
+ instance method receives the instance. To declare a class method, use this
+ idiom::
+
+ class C(object):
+ @classmethod
+ def f(cls, arg1, arg2, ...):
+ ...
+
+ The ``@classmethod`` form is a function :term:`decorator` -- see the description
+ of function definitions in :ref:`function` for details.
+
+ It can be called either on the class (such as ``C.f()``) or on an instance (such
+ as ``C().f()``). The instance is ignored except for its class. If a class
+ method is called for a derived class, the derived class object is passed as the
+ implied first argument.
+
+ Class methods are different than C++ or Java static methods. If you want those,
+ see :func:`staticmethod` in this section.
+
+ For more information on class methods, consult the documentation on the standard
+ type hierarchy in :ref:`types`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ Function decorator syntax added.
+
+
+.. function:: cmp(x, y)
+
+ Compare the two objects *x* and *y* and return an integer according to the
+ outcome. The return value is negative if ``x < y``, zero if ``x == y`` and
+ strictly positive if ``x > y``.
+
+
+.. function:: compile(source, filename, mode[, flags[, dont_inherit]])
+
+ Compile the *source* into a code or AST object. Code objects can be executed
+ by an :keyword:`exec` statement or evaluated by a call to :func:`eval`.
+ *source* can either be a string or an AST object. Refer to the :mod:`ast`
+ module documentation for information on how to work with AST objects.
+
+ The *filename* argument should give the file from which the code was read;
+ pass some recognizable value if it wasn't read from a file (``'<string>'`` is
+ commonly used).
+
+ The *mode* argument specifies what kind of code must be compiled; it can be
+ ``'exec'`` if *source* consists of a sequence of statements, ``'eval'`` if it
+ consists of a single expression, or ``'single'`` if it consists of a single
+ interactive statement (in the latter case, expression statements that
+ evaluate to something other than ``None`` will be printed).
+
+ The optional arguments *flags* and *dont_inherit* control which future
+ statements (see :pep:`236`) affect the compilation of *source*. If neither
+ is present (or both are zero) the code is compiled with those future
+ statements that are in effect in the code that is calling compile. If the
+ *flags* argument is given and *dont_inherit* is not (or is zero) then the
+ future statements specified by the *flags* argument are used in addition to
+ those that would be used anyway. If *dont_inherit* is a non-zero integer then
+ the *flags* argument is it -- the future statements in effect around the call
+ to compile are ignored.
+
+ Future statements are specified by bits which can be bitwise ORed together to
+ specify multiple statements. The bitfield required to specify a given feature
+ can be found as the :attr:`compiler_flag` attribute on the :class:`_Feature`
+ instance in the :mod:`__future__` module.
+
+ This function raises :exc:`SyntaxError` if the compiled source is invalid,
+ and :exc:`TypeError` if the source contains null bytes.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ When compiling a string with multi-line code in ``'single'`` or
+ ``'eval'`` mode, input must be terminated by at least one newline
+ character. This is to facilitate detection of incomplete and complete
+ statements in the :mod:`code` module.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ The *flags* and *dont_inherit* arguments were added.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ Support for compiling AST objects.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ Allowed use of Windows and Mac newlines. Also input in ``'exec'`` mode
+ does not have to end in a newline anymore.
+
+
+.. function:: complex([real[, imag]])
+
+ Create a complex number with the value *real* + *imag*\*j or convert a string or
+ number to a complex number. If the first parameter is a string, it will be
+ interpreted as a complex number and the function must be called without a second
+ parameter. The second parameter can never be a string. Each argument may be any
+ numeric type (including complex). If *imag* is omitted, it defaults to zero and
+ the function serves as a numeric conversion function like :func:`int`,
+ :func:`long` and :func:`float`. If both arguments are omitted, returns ``0j``.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ When converting from a string, the string must not contain whitespace
+ around the central ``+`` or ``-`` operator. For example,
+ ``complex('1+2j')`` is fine, but ``complex('1 + 2j')`` raises
+ :exc:`ValueError`.
+
+ The complex type is described in :ref:`typesnumeric`.
+
+
+.. function:: delattr(object, name)
+
+ This is a relative of :func:`setattr`. The arguments are an object and a
+ string. The string must be the name of one of the object's attributes. The
+ function deletes the named attribute, provided the object allows it. For
+ example, ``delattr(x, 'foobar')`` is equivalent to ``del x.foobar``.
+
+
+.. _func-dict:
+.. function:: dict(**kwarg)
+ dict(mapping, **kwarg)
+ dict(iterable, **kwarg)
+ :noindex:
+
+ Create a new dictionary. The :class:`dict` object is the dictionary class.
+ See :class:`dict` and :ref:`typesmapping` for documentation about this
+ class.
+
+ For other containers see the built-in :class:`list`, :class:`set`, and
+ :class:`tuple` classes, as well as the :mod:`collections` module.
+
+
+.. function:: dir([object])
+
+ Without arguments, return the list of names in the current local scope. With an
+ argument, attempt to return a list of valid attributes for that object.
+
+ If the object has a method named :meth:`__dir__`, this method will be called and
+ must return the list of attributes. This allows objects that implement a custom
+ :func:`__getattr__` or :func:`__getattribute__` function to customize the way
+ :func:`dir` reports their attributes.
+
+ If the object does not provide :meth:`__dir__`, the function tries its best to
+ gather information from the object's :attr:`__dict__` attribute, if defined, and
+ from its type object. The resulting list is not necessarily complete, and may
+ be inaccurate when the object has a custom :func:`__getattr__`.
+
+ The default :func:`dir` mechanism behaves differently with different types of
+ objects, as it attempts to produce the most relevant, rather than complete,
+ information:
+
+ * If the object is a module object, the list contains the names of the module's
+ attributes.
+
+ * If the object is a type or class object, the list contains the names of its
+ attributes, and recursively of the attributes of its bases.
+
+ * Otherwise, the list contains the object's attributes' names, the names of its
+ class's attributes, and recursively of the attributes of its class's base
+ classes.
+
+ The resulting list is sorted alphabetically. For example:
+
+ >>> import struct
+ >>> dir() # show the names in the module namespace
+ ['__builtins__', '__doc__', '__name__', 'struct']
+ >>> dir(struct) # show the names in the struct module
+ ['Struct', '__builtins__', '__doc__', '__file__', '__name__',
+ '__package__', '_clearcache', 'calcsize', 'error', 'pack', 'pack_into',
+ 'unpack', 'unpack_from']
+ >>> class Shape(object):
+ def __dir__(self):
+ return ['area', 'perimeter', 'location']
+ >>> s = Shape()
+ >>> dir(s)
+ ['area', 'perimeter', 'location']
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Because :func:`dir` is supplied primarily as a convenience for use at an
+ interactive prompt, it tries to supply an interesting set of names more than it
+ tries to supply a rigorously or consistently defined set of names, and its
+ detailed behavior may change across releases. For example, metaclass attributes
+ are not in the result list when the argument is a class.
+
+
+.. function:: divmod(a, b)
+
+ Take two (non complex) numbers as arguments and return a pair of numbers
+ consisting of their quotient and remainder when using long division. With mixed
+ operand types, the rules for binary arithmetic operators apply. For plain and
+ long integers, the result is the same as ``(a // b, a % b)``. For floating point
+ numbers the result is ``(q, a % b)``, where *q* is usually ``math.floor(a / b)``
+ but may be 1 less than that. In any case ``q * b + a % b`` is very close to
+ *a*, if ``a % b`` is non-zero it has the same sign as *b*, and ``0 <= abs(a % b)
+ < abs(b)``.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ Using :func:`divmod` with complex numbers is deprecated.
+
+
+.. function:: enumerate(sequence, start=0)
+
+ Return an enumerate object. *sequence* must be a sequence, an
+ :term:`iterator`, or some other object which supports iteration. The
+ :meth:`!next` method of the iterator returned by :func:`enumerate` returns a
+ tuple containing a count (from *start* which defaults to 0) and the
+ values obtained from iterating over *sequence*::
+
+ >>> seasons = ['Spring', 'Summer', 'Fall', 'Winter']
+ >>> list(enumerate(seasons))
+ [(0, 'Spring'), (1, 'Summer'), (2, 'Fall'), (3, 'Winter')]
+ >>> list(enumerate(seasons, start=1))
+ [(1, 'Spring'), (2, 'Summer'), (3, 'Fall'), (4, 'Winter')]
+
+ Equivalent to::
+
+ def enumerate(sequence, start=0):
+ n = start
+ for elem in sequence:
+ yield n, elem
+ n += 1
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ The *start* parameter was added.
+
+
+.. function:: eval(expression[, globals[, locals]])
+
+ The arguments are a string and optional globals and locals. If provided,
+ *globals* must be a dictionary. If provided, *locals* can be any mapping
+ object.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ formerly *locals* was required to be a dictionary.
+
+ The *expression* argument is parsed and evaluated as a Python expression
+ (technically speaking, a condition list) using the *globals* and *locals*
+ dictionaries as global and local namespace. If the *globals* dictionary is
+ present and lacks '__builtins__', the current globals are copied into *globals*
+ before *expression* is parsed. This means that *expression* normally has full
+ access to the standard :mod:`__builtin__` module and restricted environments are
+ propagated. If the *locals* dictionary is omitted it defaults to the *globals*
+ dictionary. If both dictionaries are omitted, the expression is executed in the
+ environment where :func:`eval` is called. The return value is the result of
+ the evaluated expression. Syntax errors are reported as exceptions. Example:
+
+ >>> x = 1
+ >>> print eval('x+1')
+ 2
+
+ This function can also be used to execute arbitrary code objects (such as
+ those created by :func:`compile`). In this case pass a code object instead
+ of a string. If the code object has been compiled with ``'exec'`` as the
+ *mode* argument, :func:`eval`\'s return value will be ``None``.
+
+ Hints: dynamic execution of statements is supported by the :keyword:`exec`
+ statement. Execution of statements from a file is supported by the
+ :func:`execfile` function. The :func:`globals` and :func:`locals` functions
+ returns the current global and local dictionary, respectively, which may be
+ useful to pass around for use by :func:`eval` or :func:`execfile`.
+
+ See :func:`ast.literal_eval` for a function that can safely evaluate strings
+ with expressions containing only literals.
+
+
+.. function:: execfile(filename[, globals[, locals]])
+
+ This function is similar to the :keyword:`exec` statement, but parses a file
+ instead of a string. It is different from the :keyword:`import` statement in
+ that it does not use the module administration --- it reads the file
+ unconditionally and does not create a new module. [#]_
+
+ The arguments are a file name and two optional dictionaries. The file is parsed
+ and evaluated as a sequence of Python statements (similarly to a module) using
+ the *globals* and *locals* dictionaries as global and local namespace. If
+ provided, *locals* can be any mapping object. Remember that at module level,
+ globals and locals are the same dictionary. If two separate objects are
+ passed as *globals* and *locals*, the code will be executed as if it were
+ embedded in a class definition.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ formerly *locals* was required to be a dictionary.
+
+ If the *locals* dictionary is omitted it defaults to the *globals* dictionary.
+ If both dictionaries are omitted, the expression is executed in the environment
+ where :func:`execfile` is called. The return value is ``None``.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ The default *locals* act as described for function :func:`locals` below:
+ modifications to the default *locals* dictionary should not be attempted. Pass
+ an explicit *locals* dictionary if you need to see effects of the code on
+ *locals* after function :func:`execfile` returns. :func:`execfile` cannot be
+ used reliably to modify a function's locals.
+
+
+.. function:: file(name[, mode[, buffering]])
+
+ Constructor function for the :class:`file` type, described further in section
+ :ref:`bltin-file-objects`. The constructor's arguments are the same as those
+ of the :func:`open` built-in function described below.
+
+ When opening a file, it's preferable to use :func:`open` instead of invoking
+ this constructor directly. :class:`file` is more suited to type testing (for
+ example, writing ``isinstance(f, file)``).
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+
+.. function:: filter(function, iterable)
+
+ Construct a list from those elements of *iterable* for which *function* returns
+ true. *iterable* may be either a sequence, a container which supports
+ iteration, or an iterator. If *iterable* is a string or a tuple, the result
+ also has that type; otherwise it is always a list. If *function* is ``None``,
+ the identity function is assumed, that is, all elements of *iterable* that are
+ false are removed.
+
+ Note that ``filter(function, iterable)`` is equivalent to ``[item for item in
+ iterable if function(item)]`` if function is not ``None`` and ``[item for item
+ in iterable if item]`` if function is ``None``.
+
+ See :func:`itertools.ifilter` and :func:`itertools.ifilterfalse` for iterator
+ versions of this function, including a variation that filters for elements
+ where the *function* returns false.
+
+
+.. function:: float([x])
+
+ Convert a string or a number to floating point. If the argument is a string, it
+ must contain a possibly signed decimal or floating point number, possibly
+ embedded in whitespace. The argument may also be [+|-]nan or [+|-]inf.
+ Otherwise, the argument may be a plain or long integer
+ or a floating point number, and a floating point number with the same value
+ (within Python's floating point precision) is returned. If no argument is
+ given, returns ``0.0``.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ .. index::
+ single: NaN
+ single: Infinity
+
+ When passing in a string, values for NaN and Infinity may be returned, depending
+ on the underlying C library. Float accepts the strings nan, inf and -inf for
+ NaN and positive or negative infinity. The case and a leading + are ignored as
+ well as a leading - is ignored for NaN. Float always represents NaN and infinity
+ as nan, inf or -inf.
+
+ The float type is described in :ref:`typesnumeric`.
+
+
+.. function:: format(value[, format_spec])
+
+ .. index::
+ pair: str; format
+ single: __format__
+
+ Convert a *value* to a "formatted" representation, as controlled by
+ *format_spec*. The interpretation of *format_spec* will depend on the type
+ of the *value* argument, however there is a standard formatting syntax that
+ is used by most built-in types: :ref:`formatspec`.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ ``format(value, format_spec)`` merely calls
+ ``value.__format__(format_spec)``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. _func-frozenset:
+.. function:: frozenset([iterable])
+ :noindex:
+
+ Return a new :class:`frozenset` object, optionally with elements taken from
+ *iterable*. ``frozenset`` is a built-in class. See :class:`frozenset` and
+ :ref:`types-set` for documentation about this class.
+
+ For other containers see the built-in :class:`set`, :class:`list`,
+ :class:`tuple`, and :class:`dict` classes, as well as the :mod:`collections`
+ module.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+.. function:: getattr(object, name[, default])
+
+ Return the value of the named attribute of *object*. *name* must be a string.
+ If the string is the name of one of the object's attributes, the result is the
+ value of that attribute. For example, ``getattr(x, 'foobar')`` is equivalent to
+ ``x.foobar``. If the named attribute does not exist, *default* is returned if
+ provided, otherwise :exc:`AttributeError` is raised.
+
+
+.. function:: globals()
+
+ Return a dictionary representing the current global symbol table. This is always
+ the dictionary of the current module (inside a function or method, this is the
+ module where it is defined, not the module from which it is called).
+
+
+.. function:: hasattr(object, name)
+
+ The arguments are an object and a string. The result is ``True`` if the string
+ is the name of one of the object's attributes, ``False`` if not. (This is
+ implemented by calling ``getattr(object, name)`` and seeing whether it raises an
+ exception or not.)
+
+
+.. function:: hash(object)
+
+ Return the hash value of the object (if it has one). Hash values are integers.
+ They are used to quickly compare dictionary keys during a dictionary lookup.
+ Numeric values that compare equal have the same hash value (even if they are of
+ different types, as is the case for 1 and 1.0).
+
+
+.. function:: help([object])
+
+ Invoke the built-in help system. (This function is intended for interactive
+ use.) If no argument is given, the interactive help system starts on the
+ interpreter console. If the argument is a string, then the string is looked up
+ as the name of a module, function, class, method, keyword, or documentation
+ topic, and a help page is printed on the console. If the argument is any other
+ kind of object, a help page on the object is generated.
+
+ This function is added to the built-in namespace by the :mod:`site` module.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+
+.. function:: hex(x)
+
+ Convert an integer number (of any size) to a hexadecimal string. The result is a
+ valid Python expression.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ To obtain a hexadecimal string representation for a float, use the
+ :meth:`float.hex` method.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ Formerly only returned an unsigned literal.
+
+
+.. function:: id(object)
+
+ Return the "identity" of an object. This is an integer (or long integer) which
+ is guaranteed to be unique and constant for this object during its lifetime.
+ Two objects with non-overlapping lifetimes may have the same :func:`id`
+ value.
+
+ .. impl-detail:: This is the address of the object in memory.
+
+
+.. function:: input([prompt])
+
+ Equivalent to ``eval(raw_input(prompt))``.
+
+ This function does not catch user errors. If the input is not syntactically
+ valid, a :exc:`SyntaxError` will be raised. Other exceptions may be raised if
+ there is an error during evaluation.
+
+ If the :mod:`readline` module was loaded, then :func:`input` will use it to
+ provide elaborate line editing and history features.
+
+ Consider using the :func:`raw_input` function for general input from users.
+
+
+.. function:: int(x=0)
+ int(x, base=10)
+
+ Convert a number or string *x* to an integer, or return ``0`` if no
+ arguments are given. If *x* is a number, it can be a plain integer, a long
+ integer, or a floating point number. If *x* is floating point, the conversion
+ truncates towards zero. If the argument is outside the integer range, the
+ function returns a long object instead.
+
+ If *x* is not a number or if *base* is given, then *x* must be a string or
+ Unicode object representing an :ref:`integer literal <integers>` in radix
+ *base*. Optionally, the literal can be
+ preceded by ``+`` or ``-`` (with no space in between) and surrounded by
+ whitespace. A base-n literal consists of the digits 0 to n-1, with ``a``
+ to ``z`` (or ``A`` to ``Z``) having
+ values 10 to 35. The default *base* is 10. The allowed values are 0 and 2-36.
+ Base-2, -8, and -16 literals can be optionally prefixed with ``0b``/``0B``,
+ ``0o``/``0O``/``0``, or ``0x``/``0X``, as with integer literals in code.
+ Base 0 means to interpret the string exactly as an integer literal, so that
+ the actual base is 2, 8, 10, or 16.
+
+ The integer type is described in :ref:`typesnumeric`.
+
+
+.. function:: isinstance(object, classinfo)
+
+ Return true if the *object* argument is an instance of the *classinfo* argument,
+ or of a (direct, indirect or :term:`virtual <abstract base class>`) subclass
+ thereof. Also return true if *classinfo*
+ is a type object (new-style class) and *object* is an object of that type or of
+ a (direct, indirect or :term:`virtual <abstract base class>`) subclass
+ thereof. If *object* is not a class instance or
+ an object of the given type, the function always returns false. If *classinfo*
+ is neither a class object nor a type object, it may be a tuple of class or type
+ objects, or may recursively contain other such tuples (other sequence types are
+ not accepted). If *classinfo* is not a class, type, or tuple of classes, types,
+ and such tuples, a :exc:`TypeError` exception is raised.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.2
+ Support for a tuple of type information was added.
+
+
+.. function:: issubclass(class, classinfo)
+
+ Return true if *class* is a subclass (direct, indirect or :term:`virtual
+ <abstract base class>`) of *classinfo*. A
+ class is considered a subclass of itself. *classinfo* may be a tuple of class
+ objects, in which case every entry in *classinfo* will be checked. In any other
+ case, a :exc:`TypeError` exception is raised.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ Support for a tuple of type information was added.
+
+
+.. function:: iter(o[, sentinel])
+
+ Return an :term:`iterator` object. The first argument is interpreted very differently
+ depending on the presence of the second argument. Without a second argument, *o*
+ must be a collection object which supports the iteration protocol (the
+ :meth:`__iter__` method), or it must support the sequence protocol (the
+ :meth:`__getitem__` method with integer arguments starting at ``0``). If it
+ does not support either of those protocols, :exc:`TypeError` is raised. If the
+ second argument, *sentinel*, is given, then *o* must be a callable object. The
+ iterator created in this case will call *o* with no arguments for each call to
+ its :meth:`~iterator.next` method; if the value returned is equal to *sentinel*,
+ :exc:`StopIteration` will be raised, otherwise the value will be returned.
+
+ One useful application of the second form of :func:`iter` is to read lines of
+ a file until a certain line is reached. The following example reads a file
+ until the :meth:`readline` method returns an empty string::
+
+ with open('mydata.txt') as fp:
+ for line in iter(fp.readline, ''):
+ process_line(line)
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+
+.. function:: len(s)
+
+ Return the length (the number of items) of an object. The argument may be a
+ sequence (string, tuple or list) or a mapping (dictionary).
+
+
+.. function:: list([iterable])
+
+ Return a list whose items are the same and in the same order as *iterable*'s
+ items. *iterable* may be either a sequence, a container that supports
+ iteration, or an iterator object. If *iterable* is already a list, a copy is
+ made and returned, similar to ``iterable[:]``. For instance, ``list('abc')``
+ returns ``['a', 'b', 'c']`` and ``list( (1, 2, 3) )`` returns ``[1, 2, 3]``. If
+ no argument is given, returns a new empty list, ``[]``.
+
+ :class:`list` is a mutable sequence type, as documented in
+ :ref:`typesseq`. For other containers see the built in :class:`dict`,
+ :class:`set`, and :class:`tuple` classes, and the :mod:`collections` module.
+
+
+.. function:: locals()
+
+ Update and return a dictionary representing the current local symbol table.
+ Free variables are returned by :func:`locals` when it is called in function
+ blocks, but not in class blocks.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ The contents of this dictionary should not be modified; changes may not
+ affect the values of local and free variables used by the interpreter.
+
+
+.. function:: long(x=0)
+ long(x, base=10)
+
+ Convert a string or number to a long integer. If the argument is a string, it
+ must contain a possibly signed number of arbitrary size, possibly embedded in
+ whitespace. The *base* argument is interpreted in the same way as for
+ :func:`int`, and may only be given when *x* is a string. Otherwise, the argument
+ may be a plain or long integer or a floating point number, and a long integer
+ with the same value is returned. Conversion of floating point numbers to
+ integers truncates (towards zero). If no arguments are given, returns ``0L``.
+
+ The long type is described in :ref:`typesnumeric`.
+
+
+.. function:: map(function, iterable, ...)
+
+ Apply *function* to every item of *iterable* and return a list of the results.
+ If additional *iterable* arguments are passed, *function* must take that many
+ arguments and is applied to the items from all iterables in parallel. If one
+ iterable is shorter than another it is assumed to be extended with ``None``
+ items. If *function* is ``None``, the identity function is assumed; if there
+ are multiple arguments, :func:`map` returns a list consisting of tuples
+ containing the corresponding items from all iterables (a kind of transpose
+ operation). The *iterable* arguments may be a sequence or any iterable object;
+ the result is always a list.
+
+
+.. function:: max(iterable[, key])
+ max(arg1, arg2, *args[, key])
+
+ Return the largest item in an iterable or the largest of two or more
+ arguments.
+
+ If one positional argument is provided, *iterable* must be a non-empty
+ iterable (such as a non-empty string, tuple or list). The largest item
+ in the iterable is returned. If two or more positional arguments are
+ provided, the largest of the positional arguments is returned.
+
+ The optional *key* argument specifies a one-argument ordering function like that
+ used for :meth:`list.sort`. The *key* argument, if supplied, must be in keyword
+ form (for example, ``max(a,b,c,key=func)``).
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ Added support for the optional *key* argument.
+
+.. _func-memoryview:
+.. function:: memoryview(obj)
+ :noindex:
+
+ Return a "memory view" object created from the given argument. See
+ :ref:`typememoryview` for more information.
+
+
+.. function:: min(iterable[, key])
+ min(arg1, arg2, *args[, key])
+
+ Return the smallest item in an iterable or the smallest of two or more
+ arguments.
+
+ If one positional argument is provided, *iterable* must be a non-empty
+ iterable (such as a non-empty string, tuple or list). The smallest item
+ in the iterable is returned. If two or more positional arguments are
+ provided, the smallest of the positional arguments is returned.
+
+ The optional *key* argument specifies a one-argument ordering function like that
+ used for :meth:`list.sort`. The *key* argument, if supplied, must be in keyword
+ form (for example, ``min(a,b,c,key=func)``).
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ Added support for the optional *key* argument.
+
+
+.. function:: next(iterator[, default])
+
+ Retrieve the next item from the *iterator* by calling its
+ :meth:`~iterator.next` method. If *default* is given, it is returned if the
+ iterator is exhausted, otherwise :exc:`StopIteration` is raised.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: object()
+
+ Return a new featureless object. :class:`object` is a base for all new style
+ classes. It has the methods that are common to all instances of new style
+ classes.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ This function does not accept any arguments. Formerly, it accepted arguments but
+ ignored them.
+
+
+.. function:: oct(x)
+
+ Convert an integer number (of any size) to an octal string. The result is a
+ valid Python expression.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ Formerly only returned an unsigned literal.
+
+
+.. function:: open(name[, mode[, buffering]])
+
+ Open a file, returning an object of the :class:`file` type described in
+ section :ref:`bltin-file-objects`. If the file cannot be opened,
+ :exc:`IOError` is raised. When opening a file, it's preferable to use
+ :func:`open` instead of invoking the :class:`file` constructor directly.
+
+ The first two arguments are the same as for ``stdio``'s :c:func:`fopen`:
+ *name* is the file name to be opened, and *mode* is a string indicating how
+ the file is to be opened.
+
+ The most commonly-used values of *mode* are ``'r'`` for reading, ``'w'`` for
+ writing (truncating the file if it already exists), and ``'a'`` for appending
+ (which on *some* Unix systems means that *all* writes append to the end of the
+ file regardless of the current seek position). If *mode* is omitted, it
+ defaults to ``'r'``. The default is to use text mode, which may convert
+ ``'\n'`` characters to a platform-specific representation on writing and back
+ on reading. Thus, when opening a binary file, you should append ``'b'`` to
+ the *mode* value to open the file in binary mode, which will improve
+ portability. (Appending ``'b'`` is useful even on systems that don't treat
+ binary and text files differently, where it serves as documentation.) See below
+ for more possible values of *mode*.
+
+ .. index::
+ single: line-buffered I/O
+ single: unbuffered I/O
+ single: buffer size, I/O
+ single: I/O control; buffering
+
+ The optional *buffering* argument specifies the file's desired buffer size: 0
+ means unbuffered, 1 means line buffered, any other positive value means use a
+ buffer of (approximately) that size (in bytes). A negative *buffering* means
+ to use the system default, which is usually line buffered for tty devices and
+ fully buffered for other files. If omitted, the system default is used. [#]_
+
+ Modes ``'r+'``, ``'w+'`` and ``'a+'`` open the file for updating (note that
+ ``'w+'`` truncates the file). Append ``'b'`` to the mode to open the file in
+ binary mode, on systems that differentiate between binary and text files; on
+ systems that don't have this distinction, adding the ``'b'`` has no effect.
+
+ .. index::
+ single: universal newlines; open() built-in function
+
+ In addition to the standard :c:func:`fopen` values *mode* may be ``'U'`` or
+ ``'rU'``. Python is usually built with :term:`universal newlines` support;
+ supplying ``'U'`` opens the file as a text file, but lines may be terminated
+ by any of the following: the Unix end-of-line convention ``'\n'``, the
+ Macintosh convention ``'\r'``, or the Windows convention ``'\r\n'``. All of
+ these external representations are seen as ``'\n'`` by the Python program.
+ If Python is built without universal newlines support a *mode* with ``'U'``
+ is the same as normal text mode. Note that file objects so opened also have
+ an attribute called :attr:`newlines` which has a value of ``None`` (if no
+ newlines have yet been seen), ``'\n'``, ``'\r'``, ``'\r\n'``, or a tuple
+ containing all the newline types seen.
+
+ Python enforces that the mode, after stripping ``'U'``, begins with ``'r'``,
+ ``'w'`` or ``'a'``.
+
+ Python provides many file handling modules including
+ :mod:`fileinput`, :mod:`os`, :mod:`os.path`, :mod:`tempfile`, and
+ :mod:`shutil`.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ Restriction on first letter of mode string introduced.
+
+
+.. function:: ord(c)
+
+ Given a string of length one, return an integer representing the Unicode code
+ point of the character when the argument is a unicode object, or the value of
+ the byte when the argument is an 8-bit string. For example, ``ord('a')`` returns
+ the integer ``97``, ``ord(u'\u2020')`` returns ``8224``. This is the inverse of
+ :func:`chr` for 8-bit strings and of :func:`unichr` for unicode objects. If a
+ unicode argument is given and Python was built with UCS2 Unicode, then the
+ character's code point must be in the range [0..65535] inclusive; otherwise the
+ string length is two, and a :exc:`TypeError` will be raised.
+
+
+.. function:: pow(x, y[, z])
+
+ Return *x* to the power *y*; if *z* is present, return *x* to the power *y*,
+ modulo *z* (computed more efficiently than ``pow(x, y) % z``). The two-argument
+ form ``pow(x, y)`` is equivalent to using the power operator: ``x**y``.
+
+ The arguments must have numeric types. With mixed operand types, the coercion
+ rules for binary arithmetic operators apply. For int and long int operands, the
+ result has the same type as the operands (after coercion) unless the second
+ argument is negative; in that case, all arguments are converted to float and a
+ float result is delivered. For example, ``10**2`` returns ``100``, but
+ ``10**-2`` returns ``0.01``. (This last feature was added in Python 2.2. In
+ Python 2.1 and before, if both arguments were of integer types and the second
+ argument was negative, an exception was raised.) If the second argument is
+ negative, the third argument must be omitted. If *z* is present, *x* and *y*
+ must be of integer types, and *y* must be non-negative. (This restriction was
+ added in Python 2.2. In Python 2.1 and before, floating 3-argument ``pow()``
+ returned platform-dependent results depending on floating-point rounding
+ accidents.)
+
+
+.. function:: print(*objects, sep=' ', end='\\n', file=sys.stdout)
+
+ Print *objects* to the stream *file*, separated by *sep* and followed by
+ *end*. *sep*, *end* and *file*, if present, must be given as keyword
+ arguments.
+
+ All non-keyword arguments are converted to strings like :func:`str` does and
+ written to the stream, separated by *sep* and followed by *end*. Both *sep*
+ and *end* must be strings; they can also be ``None``, which means to use the
+ default values. If no *objects* are given, :func:`print` will just write
+ *end*.
+
+ The *file* argument must be an object with a ``write(string)`` method; if it
+ is not present or ``None``, :data:`sys.stdout` will be used. Output buffering
+ is determined by *file*. Use ``file.flush()`` to ensure, for instance,
+ immediate appearance on a screen.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ This function is not normally available as a built-in since the name
+ ``print`` is recognized as the :keyword:`print` statement. To disable the
+ statement and use the :func:`print` function, use this future statement at
+ the top of your module::
+
+ from __future__ import print_function
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: property([fget[, fset[, fdel[, doc]]]])
+
+ Return a property attribute for :term:`new-style class`\es (classes that
+ derive from :class:`object`).
+
+ *fget* is a function for getting an attribute value, likewise *fset* is a
+ function for setting, and *fdel* a function for del'ing, an attribute. Typical
+ use is to define a managed attribute ``x``::
+
+ class C(object):
+ def __init__(self):
+ self._x = None
+
+ def getx(self):
+ return self._x
+ def setx(self, value):
+ self._x = value
+ def delx(self):
+ del self._x
+ x = property(getx, setx, delx, "I'm the 'x' property.")
+
+ If then *c* is an instance of *C*, ``c.x`` will invoke the getter,
+ ``c.x = value`` will invoke the setter and ``del c.x`` the deleter.
+
+ If given, *doc* will be the docstring of the property attribute. Otherwise, the
+ property will copy *fget*'s docstring (if it exists). This makes it possible to
+ create read-only properties easily using :func:`property` as a :term:`decorator`::
+
+ class Parrot(object):
+ def __init__(self):
+ self._voltage = 100000
+
+ @property
+ def voltage(self):
+ """Get the current voltage."""
+ return self._voltage
+
+ turns the :meth:`voltage` method into a "getter" for a read-only attribute
+ with the same name.
+
+ A property object has :attr:`getter`, :attr:`setter`, and :attr:`deleter`
+ methods usable as decorators that create a copy of the property with the
+ corresponding accessor function set to the decorated function. This is
+ best explained with an example::
+
+ class C(object):
+ def __init__(self):
+ self._x = None
+
+ @property
+ def x(self):
+ """I'm the 'x' property."""
+ return self._x
+
+ @x.setter
+ def x(self, value):
+ self._x = value
+
+ @x.deleter
+ def x(self):
+ del self._x
+
+ This code is exactly equivalent to the first example. Be sure to give the
+ additional functions the same name as the original property (``x`` in this
+ case.)
+
+ The returned property also has the attributes ``fget``, ``fset``, and
+ ``fdel`` corresponding to the constructor arguments.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ Use *fget*'s docstring if no *doc* given.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ The ``getter``, ``setter``, and ``deleter`` attributes were added.
+
+
+.. function:: range(stop)
+ range(start, stop[, step])
+
+ This is a versatile function to create lists containing arithmetic progressions.
+ It is most often used in :keyword:`for` loops. The arguments must be plain
+ integers. If the *step* argument is omitted, it defaults to ``1``. If the
+ *start* argument is omitted, it defaults to ``0``. The full form returns a list
+ of plain integers ``[start, start + step, start + 2 * step, ...]``. If *step*
+ is positive, the last element is the largest ``start + i * step`` less than
+ *stop*; if *step* is negative, the last element is the smallest ``start + i *
+ step`` greater than *stop*. *step* must not be zero (or else :exc:`ValueError`
+ is raised). Example:
+
+ >>> range(10)
+ [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
+ >>> range(1, 11)
+ [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]
+ >>> range(0, 30, 5)
+ [0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25]
+ >>> range(0, 10, 3)
+ [0, 3, 6, 9]
+ >>> range(0, -10, -1)
+ [0, -1, -2, -3, -4, -5, -6, -7, -8, -9]
+ >>> range(0)
+ []
+ >>> range(1, 0)
+ []
+
+
+.. function:: raw_input([prompt])
+
+ If the *prompt* argument is present, it is written to standard output without a
+ trailing newline. The function then reads a line from input, converts it to a
+ string (stripping a trailing newline), and returns that. When EOF is read,
+ :exc:`EOFError` is raised. Example::
+
+ >>> s = raw_input('--> ')
+ --> Monty Python's Flying Circus
+ >>> s
+ "Monty Python's Flying Circus"
+
+ If the :mod:`readline` module was loaded, then :func:`raw_input` will use it to
+ provide elaborate line editing and history features.
+
+
+.. function:: reduce(function, iterable[, initializer])
+
+ Apply *function* of two arguments cumulatively to the items of *iterable*, from
+ left to right, so as to reduce the iterable to a single value. For example,
+ ``reduce(lambda x, y: x+y, [1, 2, 3, 4, 5])`` calculates ``((((1+2)+3)+4)+5)``.
+ The left argument, *x*, is the accumulated value and the right argument, *y*, is
+ the update value from the *iterable*. If the optional *initializer* is present,
+ it is placed before the items of the iterable in the calculation, and serves as
+ a default when the iterable is empty. If *initializer* is not given and
+ *iterable* contains only one item, the first item is returned.
+ Roughly equivalent to::
+
+ def reduce(function, iterable, initializer=None):
+ it = iter(iterable)
+ if initializer is None:
+ try:
+ initializer = next(it)
+ except StopIteration:
+ raise TypeError('reduce() of empty sequence with no initial value')
+ accum_value = initializer
+ for x in it:
+ accum_value = function(accum_value, x)
+ return accum_value
+
+.. function:: reload(module)
+
+ Reload a previously imported *module*. The argument must be a module object, so
+ it must have been successfully imported before. This is useful if you have
+ edited the module source file using an external editor and want to try out the
+ new version without leaving the Python interpreter. The return value is the
+ module object (the same as the *module* argument).
+
+ When ``reload(module)`` is executed:
+
+ * Python modules' code is recompiled and the module-level code reexecuted,
+ defining a new set of objects which are bound to names in the module's
+ dictionary. The ``init`` function of extension modules is not called a second
+ time.
+
+ * As with all other objects in Python the old objects are only reclaimed after
+ their reference counts drop to zero.
+
+ * The names in the module namespace are updated to point to any new or changed
+ objects.
+
+ * Other references to the old objects (such as names external to the module) are
+ not rebound to refer to the new objects and must be updated in each namespace
+ where they occur if that is desired.
+
+ There are a number of other caveats:
+
+ If a module is syntactically correct but its initialization fails, the first
+ :keyword:`import` statement for it does not bind its name locally, but does
+ store a (partially initialized) module object in ``sys.modules``. To reload the
+ module you must first :keyword:`import` it again (this will bind the name to the
+ partially initialized module object) before you can :func:`reload` it.
+
+ When a module is reloaded, its dictionary (containing the module's global
+ variables) is retained. Redefinitions of names will override the old
+ definitions, so this is generally not a problem. If the new version of a module
+ does not define a name that was defined by the old version, the old definition
+ remains. This feature can be used to the module's advantage if it maintains a
+ global table or cache of objects --- with a :keyword:`try` statement it can test
+ for the table's presence and skip its initialization if desired::
+
+ try:
+ cache
+ except NameError:
+ cache = {}
+
+ It is legal though generally not very useful to reload built-in or dynamically
+ loaded modules, except for :mod:`sys`, :mod:`__main__` and :mod:`__builtin__`.
+ In many cases, however, extension modules are not designed to be initialized
+ more than once, and may fail in arbitrary ways when reloaded.
+
+ If a module imports objects from another module using :keyword:`from` ...
+ :keyword:`import` ..., calling :func:`reload` for the other module does not
+ redefine the objects imported from it --- one way around this is to re-execute
+ the :keyword:`from` statement, another is to use :keyword:`import` and qualified
+ names (*module*.*name*) instead.
+
+ If a module instantiates instances of a class, reloading the module that defines
+ the class does not affect the method definitions of the instances --- they
+ continue to use the old class definition. The same is true for derived classes.
+
+
+.. _func-repr:
+.. function:: repr(object)
+
+ Return a string containing a printable representation of an object. This is
+ the same value yielded by conversions (reverse quotes). It is sometimes
+ useful to be able to access this operation as an ordinary function. For many
+ types, this function makes an attempt to return a string that would yield an
+ object with the same value when passed to :func:`eval`, otherwise the
+ representation is a string enclosed in angle brackets that contains the name
+ of the type of the object together with additional information often
+ including the name and address of the object. A class can control what this
+ function returns for its instances by defining a :meth:`__repr__` method.
+
+
+.. function:: reversed(seq)
+
+ Return a reverse :term:`iterator`. *seq* must be an object which has
+ a :meth:`__reversed__` method or supports the sequence protocol (the
+ :meth:`__len__` method and the :meth:`__getitem__` method with integer
+ arguments starting at ``0``).
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ Added the possibility to write a custom :meth:`__reversed__` method.
+
+
+.. function:: round(number[, ndigits])
+
+ Return the floating point value *number* rounded to *ndigits* digits after
+ the decimal point. If *ndigits* is omitted, it defaults to zero. The result
+ is a floating point number. Values are rounded to the closest multiple of
+ 10 to the power minus *ndigits*; if two multiples are equally close,
+ rounding is done away from 0 (so. for example, ``round(0.5)`` is ``1.0`` and
+ ``round(-0.5)`` is ``-1.0``).
+
+
+ .. note::
+
+ The behavior of :func:`round` for floats can be surprising: for example,
+ ``round(2.675, 2)`` gives ``2.67`` instead of the expected ``2.68``.
+ This is not a bug: it's a result of the fact that most decimal fractions
+ can't be represented exactly as a float. See :ref:`tut-fp-issues` for
+ more information.
+
+
+.. _func-set:
+.. function:: set([iterable])
+ :noindex:
+
+ Return a new :class:`set` object, optionally with elements taken from
+ *iterable*. ``set`` is a built-in class. See :class:`set` and
+ :ref:`types-set` for documentation about this class.
+
+ For other containers see the built-in :class:`frozenset`, :class:`list`,
+ :class:`tuple`, and :class:`dict` classes, as well as the :mod:`collections`
+ module.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+.. function:: setattr(object, name, value)
+
+ This is the counterpart of :func:`getattr`. The arguments are an object, a
+ string and an arbitrary value. The string may name an existing attribute or a
+ new attribute. The function assigns the value to the attribute, provided the
+ object allows it. For example, ``setattr(x, 'foobar', 123)`` is equivalent to
+ ``x.foobar = 123``.
+
+
+.. function:: slice(stop)
+ slice(start, stop[, step])
+
+ .. index:: single: Numerical Python
+
+ Return a :term:`slice` object representing the set of indices specified by
+ ``range(start, stop, step)``. The *start* and *step* arguments default to
+ ``None``. Slice objects have read-only data attributes :attr:`start`,
+ :attr:`stop` and :attr:`step` which merely return the argument values (or their
+ default). They have no other explicit functionality; however they are used by
+ Numerical Python and other third party extensions. Slice objects are also
+ generated when extended indexing syntax is used. For example:
+ ``a[start:stop:step]`` or ``a[start:stop, i]``. See :func:`itertools.islice`
+ for an alternate version that returns an iterator.
+
+
+.. function:: sorted(iterable[, cmp[, key[, reverse]]])
+
+ Return a new sorted list from the items in *iterable*.
+
+ The optional arguments *cmp*, *key*, and *reverse* have the same meaning as
+ those for the :meth:`list.sort` method (described in section
+ :ref:`typesseq-mutable`).
+
+ *cmp* specifies a custom comparison function of two arguments (iterable
+ elements) which should return a negative, zero or positive number depending on
+ whether the first argument is considered smaller than, equal to, or larger than
+ the second argument: ``cmp=lambda x,y: cmp(x.lower(), y.lower())``. The default
+ value is ``None``.
+
+ *key* specifies a function of one argument that is used to extract a comparison
+ key from each list element: ``key=str.lower``. The default value is ``None``
+ (compare the elements directly).
+
+ *reverse* is a boolean value. If set to ``True``, then the list elements are
+ sorted as if each comparison were reversed.
+
+ In general, the *key* and *reverse* conversion processes are much faster
+ than specifying an equivalent *cmp* function. This is because *cmp* is
+ called multiple times for each list element while *key* and *reverse* touch
+ each element only once. Use :func:`functools.cmp_to_key` to convert an
+ old-style *cmp* function to a *key* function.
+
+ For sorting examples and a brief sorting tutorial, see `Sorting HowTo
+ <http://wiki.python.org/moin/HowTo/Sorting/>`_\.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+.. function:: staticmethod(function)
+
+ Return a static method for *function*.
+
+ A static method does not receive an implicit first argument. To declare a static
+ method, use this idiom::
+
+ class C(object):
+ @staticmethod
+ def f(arg1, arg2, ...):
+ ...
+
+ The ``@staticmethod`` form is a function :term:`decorator` -- see the
+ description of function definitions in :ref:`function` for details.
+
+ It can be called either on the class (such as ``C.f()``) or on an instance (such
+ as ``C().f()``). The instance is ignored except for its class.
+
+ Static methods in Python are similar to those found in Java or C++. Also see
+ :func:`classmethod` for a variant that is useful for creating alternate
+ class constructors.
+
+ For more information on static methods, consult the documentation on the
+ standard type hierarchy in :ref:`types`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ Function decorator syntax added.
+
+
+.. function:: str(object='')
+
+ Return a string containing a nicely printable representation of an object. For
+ strings, this returns the string itself. The difference with ``repr(object)``
+ is that ``str(object)`` does not always attempt to return a string that is
+ acceptable to :func:`eval`; its goal is to return a printable string. If no
+ argument is given, returns the empty string, ``''``.
+
+ For more information on strings see :ref:`typesseq` which describes sequence
+ functionality (strings are sequences), and also the string-specific methods
+ described in the :ref:`string-methods` section. To output formatted strings
+ use template strings or the ``%`` operator described in the
+ :ref:`string-formatting` section. In addition see the :ref:`stringservices`
+ section. See also :func:`unicode`.
+
+
+.. function:: sum(iterable[, start])
+
+ Sums *start* and the items of an *iterable* from left to right and returns the
+ total. *start* defaults to ``0``. The *iterable*'s items are normally numbers,
+ and the start value is not allowed to be a string.
+
+ For some use cases, there are good alternatives to :func:`sum`.
+ The preferred, fast way to concatenate a sequence of strings is by calling
+ ``''.join(sequence)``. To add floating point values with extended precision,
+ see :func:`math.fsum`\. To concatenate a series of iterables, consider using
+ :func:`itertools.chain`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. function:: super(type[, object-or-type])
+
+ Return a proxy object that delegates method calls to a parent or sibling
+ class of *type*. This is useful for accessing inherited methods that have
+ been overridden in a class. The search order is same as that used by
+ :func:`getattr` except that the *type* itself is skipped.
+
+ The :attr:`__mro__` attribute of the *type* lists the method resolution
+ search order used by both :func:`getattr` and :func:`super`. The attribute
+ is dynamic and can change whenever the inheritance hierarchy is updated.
+
+ If the second argument is omitted, the super object returned is unbound. If
+ the second argument is an object, ``isinstance(obj, type)`` must be true. If
+ the second argument is a type, ``issubclass(type2, type)`` must be true (this
+ is useful for classmethods).
+
+ .. note::
+ :func:`super` only works for :term:`new-style class`\es.
+
+ There are two typical use cases for *super*. In a class hierarchy with
+ single inheritance, *super* can be used to refer to parent classes without
+ naming them explicitly, thus making the code more maintainable. This use
+ closely parallels the use of *super* in other programming languages.
+
+ The second use case is to support cooperative multiple inheritance in a
+ dynamic execution environment. This use case is unique to Python and is
+ not found in statically compiled languages or languages that only support
+ single inheritance. This makes it possible to implement "diamond diagrams"
+ where multiple base classes implement the same method. Good design dictates
+ that this method have the same calling signature in every case (because the
+ order of calls is determined at runtime, because that order adapts
+ to changes in the class hierarchy, and because that order can include
+ sibling classes that are unknown prior to runtime).
+
+ For both use cases, a typical superclass call looks like this::
+
+ class C(B):
+ def method(self, arg):
+ super(C, self).method(arg)
+
+ Note that :func:`super` is implemented as part of the binding process for
+ explicit dotted attribute lookups such as ``super().__getitem__(name)``.
+ It does so by implementing its own :meth:`__getattribute__` method for searching
+ classes in a predictable order that supports cooperative multiple inheritance.
+ Accordingly, :func:`super` is undefined for implicit lookups using statements or
+ operators such as ``super()[name]``.
+
+ Also note that :func:`super` is not limited to use inside methods. The two
+ argument form specifies the arguments exactly and makes the appropriate
+ references.
+
+ For practical suggestions on how to design cooperative classes using
+ :func:`super`, see `guide to using super()
+ <http://rhettinger.wordpress.com/2011/05/26/super-considered-super/>`_.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+
+.. function:: tuple([iterable])
+
+ Return a tuple whose items are the same and in the same order as *iterable*'s
+ items. *iterable* may be a sequence, a container that supports iteration, or an
+ iterator object. If *iterable* is already a tuple, it is returned unchanged.
+ For instance, ``tuple('abc')`` returns ``('a', 'b', 'c')`` and ``tuple([1, 2,
+ 3])`` returns ``(1, 2, 3)``. If no argument is given, returns a new empty
+ tuple, ``()``.
+
+ :class:`tuple` is an immutable sequence type, as documented in
+ :ref:`typesseq`. For other containers see the built in :class:`dict`,
+ :class:`list`, and :class:`set` classes, and the :mod:`collections` module.
+
+
+.. function:: type(object)
+ type(name, bases, dict)
+
+ .. index:: object: type
+
+ With one argument, return the type of an *object*. The return value is a
+ type object. The :func:`isinstance` built-in function is recommended for
+ testing the type of an object.
+
+ With three arguments, return a new type object. This is essentially a
+ dynamic form of the :keyword:`class` statement. The *name* string is the
+ class name and becomes the :attr:`__name__` attribute; the *bases* tuple
+ itemizes the base classes and becomes the :attr:`__bases__` attribute;
+ and the *dict* dictionary is the namespace containing definitions for class
+ body and becomes the :attr:`__dict__` attribute. For example, the
+ following two statements create identical :class:`type` objects:
+
+ >>> class X(object):
+ ... a = 1
+ ...
+ >>> X = type('X', (object,), dict(a=1))
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+
+.. function:: unichr(i)
+
+ Return the Unicode string of one character whose Unicode code is the integer
+ *i*. For example, ``unichr(97)`` returns the string ``u'a'``. This is the
+ inverse of :func:`ord` for Unicode strings. The valid range for the argument
+ depends how Python was configured -- it may be either UCS2 [0..0xFFFF] or UCS4
+ [0..0x10FFFF]. :exc:`ValueError` is raised otherwise. For ASCII and 8-bit
+ strings see :func:`chr`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+
+.. function:: unicode(object='')
+ unicode(object[, encoding [, errors]])
+
+ Return the Unicode string version of *object* using one of the following modes:
+
+ If *encoding* and/or *errors* are given, ``unicode()`` will decode the object
+ which can either be an 8-bit string or a character buffer using the codec for
+ *encoding*. The *encoding* parameter is a string giving the name of an encoding;
+ if the encoding is not known, :exc:`LookupError` is raised. Error handling is
+ done according to *errors*; this specifies the treatment of characters which are
+ invalid in the input encoding. If *errors* is ``'strict'`` (the default), a
+ :exc:`ValueError` is raised on errors, while a value of ``'ignore'`` causes
+ errors to be silently ignored, and a value of ``'replace'`` causes the official
+ Unicode replacement character, ``U+FFFD``, to be used to replace input
+ characters which cannot be decoded. See also the :mod:`codecs` module.
+
+ If no optional parameters are given, ``unicode()`` will mimic the behaviour of
+ ``str()`` except that it returns Unicode strings instead of 8-bit strings. More
+ precisely, if *object* is a Unicode string or subclass it will return that
+ Unicode string without any additional decoding applied.
+
+ For objects which provide a :meth:`__unicode__` method, it will call this method
+ without arguments to create a Unicode string. For all other objects, the 8-bit
+ string version or representation is requested and then converted to a Unicode
+ string using the codec for the default encoding in ``'strict'`` mode.
+
+ For more information on Unicode strings see :ref:`typesseq` which describes
+ sequence functionality (Unicode strings are sequences), and also the
+ string-specific methods described in the :ref:`string-methods` section. To
+ output formatted strings use template strings or the ``%`` operator described
+ in the :ref:`string-formatting` section. In addition see the
+ :ref:`stringservices` section. See also :func:`str`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.2
+ Support for :meth:`__unicode__` added.
+
+
+.. function:: vars([object])
+
+ Return the :attr:`__dict__` attribute for a module, class, instance,
+ or any other object with a :attr:`__dict__` attribute.
+
+ Objects such as modules and instances have an updateable :attr:`__dict__`
+ attribute; however, other objects may have write restrictions on their
+ :attr:`__dict__` attributes (for example, new-style classes use a
+ dictproxy to prevent direct dictionary updates).
+
+ Without an argument, :func:`vars` acts like :func:`locals`. Note, the
+ locals dictionary is only useful for reads since updates to the locals
+ dictionary are ignored.
+
+
+.. function:: xrange(stop)
+ xrange(start, stop[, step])
+
+ This function is very similar to :func:`range`, but returns an :ref:`xrange
+ object <typesseq-xrange>`
+ instead of a list. This is an opaque sequence type which yields the same values
+ as the corresponding list, without actually storing them all simultaneously.
+ The advantage of :func:`xrange` over :func:`range` is minimal (since
+ :func:`xrange` still has to create the values when asked for them) except when a
+ very large range is used on a memory-starved machine or when all of the range's
+ elements are never used (such as when the loop is usually terminated with
+ :keyword:`break`). For more information on xrange objects, see
+ :ref:`typesseq-xrange` and :ref:`typesseq`.
+
+ .. impl-detail::
+
+ :func:`xrange` is intended to be simple and fast. Implementations may
+ impose restrictions to achieve this. The C implementation of Python
+ restricts all arguments to native C longs ("short" Python integers), and
+ also requires that the number of elements fit in a native C long. If a
+ larger range is needed, an alternate version can be crafted using the
+ :mod:`itertools` module: ``islice(count(start, step),
+ (stop-start+step-1+2*(step<0))//step)``.
+
+
+.. function:: zip([iterable, ...])
+
+ This function returns a list of tuples, where the *i*-th tuple contains the
+ *i*-th element from each of the argument sequences or iterables. The returned
+ list is truncated in length to the length of the shortest argument sequence.
+ When there are multiple arguments which are all of the same length, :func:`zip`
+ is similar to :func:`map` with an initial argument of ``None``. With a single
+ sequence argument, it returns a list of 1-tuples. With no arguments, it returns
+ an empty list.
+
+ The left-to-right evaluation order of the iterables is guaranteed. This
+ makes possible an idiom for clustering a data series into n-length groups
+ using ``zip(*[iter(s)]*n)``.
+
+ :func:`zip` in conjunction with the ``*`` operator can be used to unzip a
+ list::
+
+ >>> x = [1, 2, 3]
+ >>> y = [4, 5, 6]
+ >>> zipped = zip(x, y)
+ >>> zipped
+ [(1, 4), (2, 5), (3, 6)]
+ >>> x2, y2 = zip(*zipped)
+ >>> x == list(x2) and y == list(y2)
+ True
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ Formerly, :func:`zip` required at least one argument and ``zip()`` raised a
+ :exc:`TypeError` instead of returning an empty list.
+
+
+.. function:: __import__(name[, globals[, locals[, fromlist[, level]]]])
+
+ .. index::
+ statement: import
+ module: imp
+
+ .. note::
+
+ This is an advanced function that is not needed in everyday Python
+ programming, unlike :func:`importlib.import_module`.
+
+ This function is invoked by the :keyword:`import` statement. It can be
+ replaced (by importing the :mod:`__builtin__` module and assigning to
+ ``__builtin__.__import__``) in order to change semantics of the
+ :keyword:`import` statement, but nowadays it is usually simpler to use import
+ hooks (see :pep:`302`). Direct use of :func:`__import__` is rare, except in
+ cases where you want to import a module whose name is only known at runtime.
+
+ The function imports the module *name*, potentially using the given *globals*
+ and *locals* to determine how to interpret the name in a package context.
+ The *fromlist* gives the names of objects or submodules that should be
+ imported from the module given by *name*. The standard implementation does
+ not use its *locals* argument at all, and uses its *globals* only to
+ determine the package context of the :keyword:`import` statement.
+
+ *level* specifies whether to use absolute or relative imports. The default
+ is ``-1`` which indicates both absolute and relative imports will be
+ attempted. ``0`` means only perform absolute imports. Positive values for
+ *level* indicate the number of parent directories to search relative to the
+ directory of the module calling :func:`__import__`.
+
+ When the *name* variable is of the form ``package.module``, normally, the
+ top-level package (the name up till the first dot) is returned, *not* the
+ module named by *name*. However, when a non-empty *fromlist* argument is
+ given, the module named by *name* is returned.
+
+ For example, the statement ``import spam`` results in bytecode resembling the
+ following code::
+
+ spam = __import__('spam', globals(), locals(), [], -1)
+
+ The statement ``import spam.ham`` results in this call::
+
+ spam = __import__('spam.ham', globals(), locals(), [], -1)
+
+ Note how :func:`__import__` returns the toplevel module here because this is
+ the object that is bound to a name by the :keyword:`import` statement.
+
+ On the other hand, the statement ``from spam.ham import eggs, sausage as
+ saus`` results in ::
+
+ _temp = __import__('spam.ham', globals(), locals(), ['eggs', 'sausage'], -1)
+ eggs = _temp.eggs
+ saus = _temp.sausage
+
+ Here, the ``spam.ham`` module is returned from :func:`__import__`. From this
+ object, the names to import are retrieved and assigned to their respective
+ names.
+
+ If you simply want to import a module (potentially within a package) by name,
+ use :func:`importlib.import_module`.
+
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ The level parameter was added.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ Keyword support for parameters was added.

+
+Non-essential Built-in Functions
+================================
+
+There are several built-in functions that are no longer essential to learn, know
+or use in modern Python programming. They have been kept here to maintain
+backwards compatibility with programs written for older versions of Python.
+
+Python programmers, trainers, students and book writers should feel free to
+bypass these functions without concerns about missing something important.
+
+
+.. function:: apply(function, args[, keywords])
+
+ The *function* argument must be a callable object (a user-defined or built-in
+ function or method, or a class object) and the *args* argument must be a
+ sequence. The *function* is called with *args* as the argument list; the number
+ of arguments is the length of the tuple. If the optional *keywords* argument is
+ present, it must be a dictionary whose keys are strings. It specifies keyword
+ arguments to be added to the end of the argument list. Calling :func:`apply` is
+ different from just calling ``function(args)``, since in that case there is
+ always exactly one argument. The use of :func:`apply` is equivalent to
+ ``function(*args, **keywords)``.
+
+ .. deprecated:: 2.3
+ Use ``function(*args, **keywords)`` instead of
+ ``apply(function, args, keywords)`` (see :ref:`tut-unpacking-arguments`).
+
+
+.. function:: buffer(object[, offset[, size]])
+
+ The *object* argument must be an object that supports the buffer call interface
+ (such as strings, arrays, and buffers). A new buffer object will be created
+ which references the *object* argument. The buffer object will be a slice from
+ the beginning of *object* (or from the specified *offset*). The slice will
+ extend to the end of *object* (or will have a length given by the *size*
+ argument).
+
+
+.. function:: coerce(x, y)
+
+ Return a tuple consisting of the two numeric arguments converted to a common
+ type, using the same rules as used by arithmetic operations. If coercion is not
+ possible, raise :exc:`TypeError`.
+
+
+.. function:: intern(string)
+
+ Enter *string* in the table of "interned" strings and return the interned string
+ -- which is *string* itself or a copy. Interning strings is useful to gain a
+ little performance on dictionary lookup -- if the keys in a dictionary are
+ interned, and the lookup key is interned, the key comparisons (after hashing)
+ can be done by a pointer compare instead of a string compare. Normally, the
+ names used in Python programs are automatically interned, and the dictionaries
+ used to hold module, class or instance attributes have interned keys.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ Interned strings are not immortal (like they used to be in Python 2.2 and
+ before); you must keep a reference to the return value of :func:`intern` around
+ to benefit from it.
+
+.. rubric:: Footnotes
+
+.. [#] It is used relatively rarely so does not warrant being made into a statement.
+
+.. [#] Specifying a buffer size currently has no effect on systems that don't have
+ :c:func:`setvbuf`. The interface to specify the buffer size is not done using a
+ method that calls :c:func:`setvbuf`, because that may dump core when called after
+ any I/O has been performed, and there's no reliable way to determine whether
+ this is the case.
+
+.. [#] In the current implementation, local variable bindings cannot normally be
+ affected this way, but variables retrieved from other scopes (such as modules)
+ can be. This may change.

+:mod:`functools` --- Higher-order functions and operations on callable objects
+==============================================================================
+
+.. module:: functools
+ :synopsis: Higher-order functions and operations on callable objects.
+.. moduleauthor:: Peter Harris <[email protected]>
+.. moduleauthor:: Raymond Hettinger <[email protected]>
+.. moduleauthor:: Nick Coghlan <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Peter Harris <[email protected]>
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/functools.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`functools` module is for higher-order functions: functions that act on
+or return other functions. In general, any callable object can be treated as a
+function for the purposes of this module.
+
+The :mod:`functools` module defines the following functions:
+
+.. function:: cmp_to_key(func)
+
+ Transform an old-style comparison function to a key function. Used with
+ tools that accept key functions (such as :func:`sorted`, :func:`min`,
+ :func:`max`, :func:`heapq.nlargest`, :func:`heapq.nsmallest`,
+ :func:`itertools.groupby`). This function is primarily used as a transition
+ tool for programs being converted to Python 3 where comparison functions are
+ no longer supported.
+
+ A comparison function is any callable that accept two arguments, compares them,
+ and returns a negative number for less-than, zero for equality, or a positive
+ number for greater-than. A key function is a callable that accepts one
+ argument and returns another value that indicates the position in the desired
+ collation sequence.
+
+ Example::
+
+ sorted(iterable, key=cmp_to_key(locale.strcoll)) # locale-aware sort order
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+.. function:: total_ordering(cls)
+
+ Given a class defining one or more rich comparison ordering methods, this
+ class decorator supplies the rest. This simplifies the effort involved
+ in specifying all of the possible rich comparison operations:
+
+ The class must define one of :meth:`__lt__`, :meth:`__le__`,
+ :meth:`__gt__`, or :meth:`__ge__`.
+ In addition, the class should supply an :meth:`__eq__` method.
+
+ For example::
+
+ @total_ordering
+ class Student:
+ def __eq__(self, other):
+ return ((self.lastname.lower(), self.firstname.lower()) ==
+ (other.lastname.lower(), other.firstname.lower()))
+ def __lt__(self, other):
+ return ((self.lastname.lower(), self.firstname.lower()) <
+ (other.lastname.lower(), other.firstname.lower()))
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+.. function:: reduce(function, iterable[, initializer])
+
+ This is the same function as :func:`reduce`. It is made available in this module
+ to allow writing code more forward-compatible with Python 3.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: partial(func[,*args][, **keywords])
+
+ Return a new :class:`partial` object which when called will behave like *func*
+ called with the positional arguments *args* and keyword arguments *keywords*. If
+ more arguments are supplied to the call, they are appended to *args*. If
+ additional keyword arguments are supplied, they extend and override *keywords*.
+ Roughly equivalent to::
+
+ def partial(func, *args, **keywords):
+ def newfunc(*fargs, **fkeywords):
+ newkeywords = keywords.copy()
+ newkeywords.update(fkeywords)
+ return func(*(args + fargs), **newkeywords)
+ newfunc.func = func
+ newfunc.args = args
+ newfunc.keywords = keywords
+ return newfunc
+
+ The :func:`partial` is used for partial function application which "freezes"
+ some portion of a function's arguments and/or keywords resulting in a new object
+ with a simplified signature. For example, :func:`partial` can be used to create
+ a callable that behaves like the :func:`int` function where the *base* argument
+ defaults to two:
+
+ >>> from functools import partial
+ >>> basetwo = partial(int, base=2)
+ >>> basetwo.__doc__ = 'Convert base 2 string to an int.'
+ >>> basetwo('10010')
+ 18
+
+
+.. function:: update_wrapper(wrapper, wrapped[, assigned][, updated])
+
+ Update a *wrapper* function to look like the *wrapped* function. The optional
+ arguments are tuples to specify which attributes of the original function are
+ assigned directly to the matching attributes on the wrapper function and which
+ attributes of the wrapper function are updated with the corresponding attributes
+ from the original function. The default values for these arguments are the
+ module level constants *WRAPPER_ASSIGNMENTS* (which assigns to the wrapper
+ function's *__name__*, *__module__* and *__doc__*, the documentation string) and
+ *WRAPPER_UPDATES* (which updates the wrapper function's *__dict__*, i.e. the
+ instance dictionary).
+
+ The main intended use for this function is in :term:`decorator` functions which
+ wrap the decorated function and return the wrapper. If the wrapper function is
+ not updated, the metadata of the returned function will reflect the wrapper
+ definition rather than the original function definition, which is typically less
+ than helpful.
+
+
+.. function:: wraps(wrapped[, assigned][, updated])
+
+ This is a convenience function for invoking ``partial(update_wrapper,
+ wrapped=wrapped, assigned=assigned, updated=updated)`` as a function decorator
+ when defining a wrapper function. For example:
+
+ >>> from functools import wraps
+ >>> def my_decorator(f):
+ ... @wraps(f)
+ ... def wrapper(*args, **kwds):
+ ... print 'Calling decorated function'
+ ... return f(*args, **kwds)
+ ... return wrapper
+ ...
+ >>> @my_decorator
+ ... def example():
+ ... """Docstring"""
+ ... print 'Called example function'
+ ...
+ >>> example()
+ Calling decorated function
+ Called example function
+ >>> example.__name__
+ 'example'
+ >>> example.__doc__
+ 'Docstring'
+
+ Without the use of this decorator factory, the name of the example function
+ would have been ``'wrapper'``, and the docstring of the original :func:`example`
+ would have been lost.
+
+
+.. _partial-objects:
+
+:class:`partial` Objects
+------------------------
+
+:class:`partial` objects are callable objects created by :func:`partial`. They
+have three read-only attributes:
+
+
+.. attribute:: partial.func
+
+ A callable object or function. Calls to the :class:`partial` object will be
+ forwarded to :attr:`func` with new arguments and keywords.
+
+
+.. attribute:: partial.args
+
+ The leftmost positional arguments that will be prepended to the positional
+ arguments provided to a :class:`partial` object call.
+
+
+.. attribute:: partial.keywords
+
+ The keyword arguments that will be supplied when the :class:`partial` object is
+ called.
+
+:class:`partial` objects are like :class:`function` objects in that they are
+callable, weak referencable, and can have attributes. There are some important
+differences. For instance, the :attr:`__name__` and :attr:`__doc__` attributes
+are not created automatically. Also, :class:`partial` objects defined in
+classes behave like static methods and do not transform into bound methods
+during instance attribute look-up.

+============================================
+
+.. module:: future_builtins
+.. sectionauthor:: Georg Brandl
+.. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+This module provides functions that exist in 2.x, but have different behavior in
+Python 3, so they cannot be put into the 2.x builtins namespace.
+
+Instead, if you want to write code compatible with Python 3 builtins, import
+them from this module, like this::
+
+ from future_builtins import map, filter
+
+ ... code using Python 3-style map and filter ...
+
+The :term:`2to3` tool that ports Python 2 code to Python 3 will recognize

+
+.. note::
+
+ The Python 3 :func:`print` function is already in the builtins, but cannot be

+
+ from __future__ import print_function
+
+
+Available builtins are:
+
+.. function:: ascii(object)
+
+ Returns the same as :func:`repr`. In Python 3, :func:`repr` will return
+ printable Unicode characters unescaped, while :func:`ascii` will always

+:mod:`gc` --- Garbage Collector interface
+=========================================
+
+.. module:: gc
+ :synopsis: Interface to the cycle-detecting garbage collector.
+.. moduleauthor:: Neil Schemenauer <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Neil Schemenauer <[email protected]>
+
+
+This module provides an interface to the optional garbage collector. It
+provides the ability to disable the collector, tune the collection frequency,
+and set debugging options. It also provides access to unreachable objects that
+the collector found but cannot free. Since the collector supplements the
+reference counting already used in Python, you can disable the collector if you
+are sure your program does not create reference cycles. Automatic collection
+can be disabled by calling ``gc.disable()``. To debug a leaking program call
+``gc.set_debug(gc.DEBUG_LEAK)``. Notice that this includes
+``gc.DEBUG_SAVEALL``, causing garbage-collected objects to be saved in
+gc.garbage for inspection.
+
+The :mod:`gc` module provides the following functions:
+
+
+.. function:: enable()
+
+ Enable automatic garbage collection.
+
+
+.. function:: disable()
+
+ Disable automatic garbage collection.
+
+
+.. function:: isenabled()
+
+ Returns true if automatic collection is enabled.
+
+
+.. function:: collect([generation])
+
+ With no arguments, run a full collection. The optional argument *generation*
+ may be an integer specifying which generation to collect (from 0 to 2). A
+ :exc:`ValueError` is raised if the generation number is invalid. The number of
+ unreachable objects found is returned.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ The optional *generation* argument was added.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ The free lists maintained for a number of built-in types are cleared
+ whenever a full collection or collection of the highest generation (2)
+ is run. Not all items in some free lists may be freed due to the
+ particular implementation, in particular :class:`int` and :class:`float`.
+
+
+.. function:: set_debug(flags)
+
+ Set the garbage collection debugging flags. Debugging information will be
+ written to ``sys.stderr``. See below for a list of debugging flags which can be
+ combined using bit operations to control debugging.
+
+
+.. function:: get_debug()
+
+ Return the debugging flags currently set.
+
+
+.. function:: get_objects()
+
+ Returns a list of all objects tracked by the collector, excluding the list
+ returned.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+
+.. function:: set_threshold(threshold0[, threshold1[, threshold2]])
+
+ Set the garbage collection thresholds (the collection frequency). Setting
+ *threshold0* to zero disables collection.
+
+ The GC classifies objects into three generations depending on how many
+ collection sweeps they have survived. New objects are placed in the youngest
+ generation (generation ``0``). If an object survives a collection it is moved
+ into the next older generation. Since generation ``2`` is the oldest
+ generation, objects in that generation remain there after a collection. In
+ order to decide when to run, the collector keeps track of the number object
+ allocations and deallocations since the last collection. When the number of
+ allocations minus the number of deallocations exceeds *threshold0*, collection
+ starts. Initially only generation ``0`` is examined. If generation ``0`` has
+ been examined more than *threshold1* times since generation ``1`` has been
+ examined, then generation ``1`` is examined as well. Similarly, *threshold2*
+ controls the number of collections of generation ``1`` before collecting
+ generation ``2``.
+
+
+.. function:: get_count()
+
+ Return the current collection counts as a tuple of ``(count0, count1,
+ count2)``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. function:: get_threshold()
+
+ Return the current collection thresholds as a tuple of ``(threshold0,
+ threshold1, threshold2)``.
+
+
+.. function:: get_referrers(*objs)
+
+ Return the list of objects that directly refer to any of objs. This function
+ will only locate those containers which support garbage collection; extension
+ types which do refer to other objects but do not support garbage collection will
+ not be found.
+
+ Note that objects which have already been dereferenced, but which live in cycles
+ and have not yet been collected by the garbage collector can be listed among the
+ resulting referrers. To get only currently live objects, call :func:`collect`
+ before calling :func:`get_referrers`.
+
+ Care must be taken when using objects returned by :func:`get_referrers` because
+ some of them could still be under construction and hence in a temporarily
+ invalid state. Avoid using :func:`get_referrers` for any purpose other than
+ debugging.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+
+.. function:: get_referents(*objs)
+
+ Return a list of objects directly referred to by any of the arguments. The
+ referents returned are those objects visited by the arguments' C-level
+ :attr:`tp_traverse` methods (if any), and may not be all objects actually
+ directly reachable. :attr:`tp_traverse` methods are supported only by objects
+ that support garbage collection, and are only required to visit objects that may
+ be involved in a cycle. So, for example, if an integer is directly reachable

+ objects...) are. However, some type-specific optimizations can be present
+ in order to suppress the garbage collector footprint of simple instances
+ (e.g. dicts containing only atomic keys and values)::

+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+The following variable is provided for read-only access (you can mutate its
+value but should not rebind it):
+
+
+.. data:: garbage
+
+ A list of objects which the collector found to be unreachable but could not be
+ freed (uncollectable objects). By default, this list contains only objects with
+ :meth:`__del__` methods. [#]_ Objects that have :meth:`__del__` methods and are
+ part of a reference cycle cause the entire reference cycle to be uncollectable,
+ including objects not necessarily in the cycle but reachable only from it.
+ Python doesn't collect such cycles automatically because, in general, it isn't
+ possible for Python to guess a safe order in which to run the :meth:`__del__`
+ methods. If you know a safe order, you can force the issue by examining the
+ *garbage* list, and explicitly breaking cycles due to your objects within the
+ list. Note that these objects are kept alive even so by virtue of being in the
+ *garbage* list, so they should be removed from *garbage* too. For example,
+ after breaking cycles, do ``del gc.garbage[:]`` to empty the list. It's
+ generally better to avoid the issue by not creating cycles containing objects
+ with :meth:`__del__` methods, and *garbage* can be examined in that case to
+ verify that no such cycles are being created.
+
+ If :const:`DEBUG_SAVEALL` is set, then all unreachable objects will be added to
+ this list rather than freed.
+
+The following constants are provided for use with :func:`set_debug`:
+
+
+.. data:: DEBUG_STATS
+
+ Print statistics during collection. This information can be useful when tuning
+ the collection frequency.
+
+
+.. data:: DEBUG_COLLECTABLE
+
+ Print information on collectable objects found.
+
+
+.. data:: DEBUG_UNCOLLECTABLE
+
+ Print information of uncollectable objects found (objects which are not
+ reachable but cannot be freed by the collector). These objects will be added to
+ the ``garbage`` list.
+
+
+.. data:: DEBUG_INSTANCES
+
+ When :const:`DEBUG_COLLECTABLE` or :const:`DEBUG_UNCOLLECTABLE` is set, print
+ information about instance objects found.
+
+

+ When :const:`DEBUG_COLLECTABLE` or :const:`DEBUG_UNCOLLECTABLE` is set, print
+ information about objects other than instance objects found.

+:mod:`gdbm` --- GNU's reinterpretation of dbm
+=============================================
+
+.. module:: gdbm
+ :platform: Unix
+ :synopsis: GNU's reinterpretation of dbm.
+
+.. note::
+ The :mod:`gdbm` module has been renamed to :mod:`dbm.gnu` in Python 3. The
+ :term:`2to3` tool will automatically adapt imports when converting your
+ sources to Python 3.
+
+
+.. index:: module: dbm
+
+This module is quite similar to the :mod:`dbm` module, but uses ``gdbm`` instead
+to provide some additional functionality. Please note that the file formats
+created by ``gdbm`` and ``dbm`` are incompatible.
+
+The :mod:`gdbm` module provides an interface to the GNU DBM library. ``gdbm``
+objects behave like mappings (dictionaries), except that keys and values are
+always strings. Printing a ``gdbm`` object doesn't print the keys and values,
+and the :meth:`items` and :meth:`values` methods are not supported.
+
+The module defines the following constant and functions:
+
+
+.. exception:: error
+
+ Raised on ``gdbm``\ -specific errors, such as I/O errors. :exc:`KeyError` is
+ raised for general mapping errors like specifying an incorrect key.
+
+
+.. function:: open(filename, [flag, [mode]])
+
+ Open a ``gdbm`` database and return a ``gdbm`` object. The *filename* argument
+ is the name of the database file.
+
+ The optional *flag* argument can be:
+
+ +---------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | Value | Meaning |
+ +=========+===========================================+
+ | ``'r'`` | Open existing database for reading only |
+ | | (default) |
+ +---------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'w'`` | Open existing database for reading and |
+ | | writing |
+ +---------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'c'`` | Open database for reading and writing, |
+ | | creating it if it doesn't exist |
+ +---------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'n'`` | Always create a new, empty database, open |
+ | | for reading and writing |
+ +---------+-------------------------------------------+
+
+ The following additional characters may be appended to the flag to control
+ how the database is opened:
+
+ +---------+--------------------------------------------+
+ | Value | Meaning |
+ +=========+============================================+
+ | ``'f'`` | Open the database in fast mode. Writes |
+ | | to the database will not be synchronized. |
+ +---------+--------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'s'`` | Synchronized mode. This will cause changes |
+ | | to the database to be immediately written |
+ | | to the file. |
+ +---------+--------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'u'`` | Do not lock database. |
+ +---------+--------------------------------------------+
+
+ Not all flags are valid for all versions of ``gdbm``. The module constant
+ :const:`open_flags` is a string of supported flag characters. The exception
+ :exc:`error` is raised if an invalid flag is specified.
+
+ The optional *mode* argument is the Unix mode of the file, used only when the
+ database has to be created. It defaults to octal ``0666``.
+
+In addition to the dictionary-like methods, ``gdbm`` objects have the following
+methods:
+
+
+.. function:: firstkey()
+
+ It's possible to loop over every key in the database using this method and the
+ :meth:`nextkey` method. The traversal is ordered by ``gdbm``'s internal hash
+ values, and won't be sorted by the key values. This method returns the starting
+ key.
+
+
+.. function:: nextkey(key)
+
+ Returns the key that follows *key* in the traversal. The following code prints
+ every key in the database ``db``, without having to create a list in memory that
+ contains them all::
+
+ k = db.firstkey()
+ while k != None:
+ print k
+ k = db.nextkey(k)
+
+
+.. function:: reorganize()
+
+ If you have carried out a lot of deletions and would like to shrink the space
+ used by the ``gdbm`` file, this routine will reorganize the database. ``gdbm``
+ will not shorten the length of a database file except by using this
+ reorganization; otherwise, deleted file space will be kept and reused as new
+ (key, value) pairs are added.
+
+
+.. function:: sync()
+
+ When the database has been opened in fast mode, this method forces any
+ unwritten data to be written to the disk.
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ Module :mod:`anydbm`
+ Generic interface to ``dbm``\ -style databases.
+
+ Module :mod:`whichdb`
+ Utility module used to determine the type of an existing database.

+:mod:`gensuitemodule` --- Generate OSA stub packages
+====================================================
+
+.. module:: gensuitemodule
+ :platform: Mac
+ :synopsis: Create a stub package from an OSA dictionary
+.. sectionauthor:: Jack Jansen <[email protected]>
+.. moduleauthor:: Jack Jansen
+
+The :mod:`gensuitemodule` module creates a Python package implementing stub code
+for the AppleScript suites that are implemented by a specific application,
+according to its AppleScript dictionary.
+
+It is usually invoked by the user through the :program:`PythonIDE`, but it can
+also be run as a script from the command line (pass :option:`--help` for help on
+the options) or imported from Python code. For an example of its use see
+:file:`Mac/scripts/genallsuites.py` in a source distribution, which generates
+the stub packages that are included in the standard library.
+
+It defines the following public functions:
+
+
+.. function:: is_scriptable(application)
+
+ Returns true if ``application``, which should be passed as a pathname, appears
+ to be scriptable. Take the return value with a grain of salt: :program:`Internet
+ Explorer` appears not to be scriptable but definitely is.
+
+
+.. function:: processfile(application[, output, basepkgname, edit_modnames, creatorsignature, dump, verbose])
+
+ Create a stub package for ``application``, which should be passed as a full
+ pathname. For a :file:`.app` bundle this is the pathname to the bundle, not to
+ the executable inside the bundle; for an unbundled CFM application you pass the
+ filename of the application binary.
+
+ This function asks the application for its OSA terminology resources, decodes
+ these resources and uses the resultant data to create the Python code for the
+ package implementing the client stubs.
+
+ ``output`` is the pathname where the resulting package is stored, if not
+ specified a standard "save file as" dialog is presented to the user.
+ ``basepkgname`` is the base package on which this package will build, and
+ defaults to :mod:`StdSuites`. Only when generating :mod:`StdSuites` itself do
+ you need to specify this. ``edit_modnames`` is a dictionary that can be used to
+ change modulenames that are too ugly after name mangling. ``creator_signature``
+ can be used to override the 4-char creator code, which is normally obtained from
+ the :file:`PkgInfo` file in the package or from the CFM file creator signature.
+ When ``dump`` is given it should refer to a file object, and ``processfile``
+ will stop after decoding the resources and dump the Python representation of the
+ terminology resources to this file. ``verbose`` should also be a file object,
+ and specifying it will cause ``processfile`` to tell you what it is doing.
+
+
+.. function:: processfile_fromresource(application[, output, basepkgname, edit_modnames, creatorsignature, dump, verbose])
+
+ This function does the same as ``processfile``, except that it uses a different
+ method to get the terminology resources. It opens ``application`` as a resource
+ file and reads all ``"aete"`` and ``"aeut"`` resources from this file.

+:mod:`getopt` --- C-style parser for command line options
+=========================================================
+
+.. module:: getopt
+ :synopsis: Portable parser for command line options; support both short and long option
+ names.
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/getopt.py`
+
+--------------
+
+.. note::
+ The :mod:`getopt` module is a parser for command line options whose API is
+ designed to be familiar to users of the C :c:func:`getopt` function. Users who
+ are unfamiliar with the C :c:func:`getopt` function or who would like to write
+ less code and get better help and error messages should consider using the
+ :mod:`argparse` module instead.
+
+This module helps scripts to parse the command line arguments in ``sys.argv``.
+It supports the same conventions as the Unix :c:func:`getopt` function (including
+the special meanings of arguments of the form '``-``' and '``--``'). Long
+options similar to those supported by GNU software may be used as well via an
+optional third argument.
+
+This module provides two functions and an
+exception:
+
+
+.. function:: getopt(args, options[, long_options])
+
+ Parses command line options and parameter list. *args* is the argument list to
+ be parsed, without the leading reference to the running program. Typically, this
+ means ``sys.argv[1:]``. *options* is the string of option letters that the
+ script wants to recognize, with options that require an argument followed by a
+ colon (``':'``; i.e., the same format that Unix :c:func:`getopt` uses).
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Unlike GNU :c:func:`getopt`, after a non-option argument, all further
+ arguments are considered also non-options. This is similar to the way
+ non-GNU Unix systems work.
+
+ *long_options*, if specified, must be a list of strings with the names of the
+ long options which should be supported. The leading ``'--'``
+ characters should not be included in the option name. Long options which
+ require an argument should be followed by an equal sign (``'='``). Optional
+ arguments are not supported. To accept only long options, *options* should
+ be an empty string. Long options on the command line can be recognized so
+ long as they provide a prefix of the option name that matches exactly one of
+ the accepted options. For example, if *long_options* is ``['foo', 'frob']``,
+ the option ``--fo`` will match as ``--foo``, but ``--f``
+ will not match uniquely, so :exc:`GetoptError` will be raised.
+
+ The return value consists of two elements: the first is a list of ``(option,
+ value)`` pairs; the second is the list of program arguments left after the
+ option list was stripped (this is a trailing slice of *args*). Each
+ option-and-value pair returned has the option as its first element, prefixed
+ with a hyphen for short options (e.g., ``'-x'``) or two hyphens for long
+ options (e.g., ``'--long-option'``), and the option argument as its
+ second element, or an empty string if the option has no argument. The
+ options occur in the list in the same order in which they were found, thus
+ allowing multiple occurrences. Long and short options may be mixed.
+
+
+.. function:: gnu_getopt(args, options[, long_options])
+
+ This function works like :func:`getopt`, except that GNU style scanning mode is
+ used by default. This means that option and non-option arguments may be
+ intermixed. The :func:`getopt` function stops processing options as soon as a
+ non-option argument is encountered.
+
+ If the first character of the option string is ``'+'``, or if the environment
+ variable :envvar:`POSIXLY_CORRECT` is set, then option processing stops as
+ soon as a non-option argument is encountered.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. exception:: GetoptError
+
+ This is raised when an unrecognized option is found in the argument list or when
+ an option requiring an argument is given none. The argument to the exception is
+ a string indicating the cause of the error. For long options, an argument given
+ to an option which does not require one will also cause this exception to be
+ raised. The attributes :attr:`msg` and :attr:`opt` give the error message and
+ related option; if there is no specific option to which the exception relates,
+ :attr:`opt` is an empty string.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 1.6
+ Introduced :exc:`GetoptError` as a synonym for :exc:`error`.
+
+
+.. exception:: error
+
+ Alias for :exc:`GetoptError`; for backward compatibility.
+
+An example using only Unix style options:
+
+ >>> import getopt
+ >>> args = '-a -b -cfoo -d bar a1 a2'.split()
+ >>> args
+ ['-a', '-b', '-cfoo', '-d', 'bar', 'a1', 'a2']
+ >>> optlist, args = getopt.getopt(args, 'abc:d:')
+ >>> optlist
+ [('-a', ''), ('-b', ''), ('-c', 'foo'), ('-d', 'bar')]
+ >>> args
+ ['a1', 'a2']
+
+Using long option names is equally easy:
+
+ >>> s = '--condition=foo --testing --output-file abc.def -x a1 a2'
+ >>> args = s.split()
+ >>> args
+ ['--condition=foo', '--testing', '--output-file', 'abc.def', '-x', 'a1', 'a2']
+ >>> optlist, args = getopt.getopt(args, 'x', [
+ ... 'condition=', 'output-file=', 'testing'])
+ >>> optlist
+ [('--condition', 'foo'), ('--testing', ''), ('--output-file', 'abc.def'), ('-x', '')]
+ >>> args
+ ['a1', 'a2']
+
+In a script, typical usage is something like this::
+
+ import getopt, sys
+
+ def main():
+ try:
+ opts, args = getopt.getopt(sys.argv[1:], "ho:v", ["help", "output="])
+ except getopt.GetoptError as err:
+ # print help information and exit:
+ print str(err) # will print something like "option -a not recognized"
+ usage()
+ sys.exit(2)
+ output = None
+ verbose = False
+ for o, a in opts:
+ if o == "-v":
+ verbose = True
+ elif o in ("-h", "--help"):
+ usage()
+ sys.exit()
+ elif o in ("-o", "--output"):
+ output = a
+ else:
+ assert False, "unhandled option"
+ # ...
+
+ if __name__ == "__main__":
+ main()
+
+Note that an equivalent command line interface could be produced with less code
+and more informative help and error messages by using the :mod:`argparse` module::
+
+ import argparse
+
+ if __name__ == '__main__':
+ parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+ parser.add_argument('-o', '--output')
+ parser.add_argument('-v', dest='verbose', action='store_true')

+:mod:`gettext` --- Multilingual internationalization services
+=============================================================
+
+.. module:: gettext
+ :synopsis: Multilingual internationalization services.
+.. moduleauthor:: Barry A. Warsaw <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Barry A. Warsaw <[email protected]>
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/gettext.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`gettext` module provides internationalization (I18N) and localization
+(L10N) services for your Python modules and applications. It supports both the
+GNU ``gettext`` message catalog API and a higher level, class-based API that may
+be more appropriate for Python files. The interface described below allows you
+to write your module and application messages in one natural language, and
+provide a catalog of translated messages for running under different natural
+languages.
+
+Some hints on localizing your Python modules and applications are also given.
+
+
+GNU :program:`gettext` API
+--------------------------
+
+The :mod:`gettext` module defines the following API, which is very similar to
+the GNU :program:`gettext` API. If you use this API you will affect the
+translation of your entire application globally. Often this is what you want if
+your application is monolingual, with the choice of language dependent on the
+locale of your user. If you are localizing a Python module, or if your
+application needs to switch languages on the fly, you probably want to use the
+class-based API instead.
+
+
+.. function:: bindtextdomain(domain[, localedir])
+
+ Bind the *domain* to the locale directory *localedir*. More concretely,
+ :mod:`gettext` will look for binary :file:`.mo` files for the given domain using
+ the path (on Unix): :file:`localedir/language/LC_MESSAGES/domain.mo`, where
+ *languages* is searched for in the environment variables :envvar:`LANGUAGE`,
+ :envvar:`LC_ALL`, :envvar:`LC_MESSAGES`, and :envvar:`LANG` respectively.
+
+ If *localedir* is omitted or ``None``, then the current binding for *domain* is
+ returned. [#]_
+
+
+.. function:: bind_textdomain_codeset(domain[, codeset])
+
+ Bind the *domain* to *codeset*, changing the encoding of strings returned by the
+ :func:`gettext` family of functions. If *codeset* is omitted, then the current
+ binding is returned.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+.. function:: textdomain([domain])
+
+ Change or query the current global domain. If *domain* is ``None``, then the
+ current global domain is returned, otherwise the global domain is set to
+ *domain*, which is returned.
+
+
+.. function:: gettext(message)
+
+ Return the localized translation of *message*, based on the current global
+ domain, language, and locale directory. This function is usually aliased as
+ :func:`_` in the local namespace (see examples below).
+
+
+.. function:: lgettext(message)
+
+ Equivalent to :func:`gettext`, but the translation is returned in the preferred
+ system encoding, if no other encoding was explicitly set with
+ :func:`bind_textdomain_codeset`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+.. function:: dgettext(domain, message)
+
+ Like :func:`gettext`, but look the message up in the specified *domain*.
+
+
+.. function:: ldgettext(domain, message)
+
+ Equivalent to :func:`dgettext`, but the translation is returned in the preferred
+ system encoding, if no other encoding was explicitly set with
+ :func:`bind_textdomain_codeset`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+.. function:: ngettext(singular, plural, n)
+
+ Like :func:`gettext`, but consider plural forms. If a translation is found,
+ apply the plural formula to *n*, and return the resulting message (some
+ languages have more than two plural forms). If no translation is found, return
+ *singular* if *n* is 1; return *plural* otherwise.
+
+ The Plural formula is taken from the catalog header. It is a C or Python
+ expression that has a free variable *n*; the expression evaluates to the index
+ of the plural in the catalog. See the GNU gettext documentation for the precise
+ syntax to be used in :file:`.po` files and the formulas for a variety of
+ languages.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. function:: lngettext(singular, plural, n)
+
+ Equivalent to :func:`ngettext`, but the translation is returned in the preferred
+ system encoding, if no other encoding was explicitly set with
+ :func:`bind_textdomain_codeset`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+.. function:: dngettext(domain, singular, plural, n)
+
+ Like :func:`ngettext`, but look the message up in the specified *domain*.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. function:: ldngettext(domain, singular, plural, n)
+
+ Equivalent to :func:`dngettext`, but the translation is returned in the
+ preferred system encoding, if no other encoding was explicitly set with
+ :func:`bind_textdomain_codeset`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+Note that GNU :program:`gettext` also defines a :func:`dcgettext` method, but
+this was deemed not useful and so it is currently unimplemented.
+
+Here's an example of typical usage for this API::
+
+ import gettext
+ gettext.bindtextdomain('myapplication', '/path/to/my/language/directory')
+ gettext.textdomain('myapplication')
+ _ = gettext.gettext
+ # ...
+ print _('This is a translatable string.')
+
+
+Class-based API
+---------------
+
+The class-based API of the :mod:`gettext` module gives you more flexibility and
+greater convenience than the GNU :program:`gettext` API. It is the recommended
+way of localizing your Python applications and modules. :mod:`gettext` defines
+a "translations" class which implements the parsing of GNU :file:`.mo` format
+files, and has methods for returning either standard 8-bit strings or Unicode
+strings. Instances of this "translations" class can also install themselves in
+the built-in namespace as the function :func:`_`.
+
+
+.. function:: find(domain[, localedir[, languages[, all]]])
+
+ This function implements the standard :file:`.mo` file search algorithm. It
+ takes a *domain*, identical to what :func:`textdomain` takes. Optional
+ *localedir* is as in :func:`bindtextdomain` Optional *languages* is a list of
+ strings, where each string is a language code.
+
+ If *localedir* is not given, then the default system locale directory is used.
+ [#]_ If *languages* is not given, then the following environment variables are
+ searched: :envvar:`LANGUAGE`, :envvar:`LC_ALL`, :envvar:`LC_MESSAGES`, and
+ :envvar:`LANG`. The first one returning a non-empty value is used for the
+ *languages* variable. The environment variables should contain a colon separated
+ list of languages, which will be split on the colon to produce the expected list
+ of language code strings.
+
+ :func:`find` then expands and normalizes the languages, and then iterates
+ through them, searching for an existing file built of these components:
+
+ :file:`localedir/language/LC_MESSAGES/domain.mo`
+
+ The first such file name that exists is returned by :func:`find`. If no such
+ file is found, then ``None`` is returned. If *all* is given, it returns a list
+ of all file names, in the order in which they appear in the languages list or
+ the environment variables.
+
+
+.. function:: translation(domain[, localedir[, languages[, class_[, fallback[, codeset]]]]])
+
+ Return a :class:`Translations` instance based on the *domain*, *localedir*, and
+ *languages*, which are first passed to :func:`find` to get a list of the
+ associated :file:`.mo` file paths. Instances with identical :file:`.mo` file
+ names are cached. The actual class instantiated is either *class_* if provided,
+ otherwise :class:`GNUTranslations`. The class's constructor must take a single
+ file object argument. If provided, *codeset* will change the charset used to
+ encode translated strings.
+
+ If multiple files are found, later files are used as fallbacks for earlier ones.
+ To allow setting the fallback, :func:`copy.copy` is used to clone each
+ translation object from the cache; the actual instance data is still shared with
+ the cache.
+
+ If no :file:`.mo` file is found, this function raises :exc:`IOError` if
+ *fallback* is false (which is the default), and returns a
+ :class:`NullTranslations` instance if *fallback* is true.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ Added the *codeset* parameter.
+
+
+.. function:: install(domain[, localedir[, unicode [, codeset[, names]]]])
+
+ This installs the function :func:`_` in Python's builtins namespace, based on
+ *domain*, *localedir*, and *codeset* which are passed to the function
+ :func:`translation`. The *unicode* flag is passed to the resulting translation
+ object's :meth:`~NullTranslations.install` method.
+
+ For the *names* parameter, please see the description of the translation
+ object's :meth:`~NullTranslations.install` method.
+
+ As seen below, you usually mark the strings in your application that are
+ candidates for translation, by wrapping them in a call to the :func:`_`
+ function, like this::
+
+ print _('This string will be translated.')
+
+ For convenience, you want the :func:`_` function to be installed in Python's
+ builtins namespace, so it is easily accessible in all modules of your
+ application.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ Added the *codeset* parameter.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ Added the *names* parameter.
+
+
+The :class:`NullTranslations` class
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Translation classes are what actually implement the translation of original
+source file message strings to translated message strings. The base class used
+by all translation classes is :class:`NullTranslations`; this provides the basic
+interface you can use to write your own specialized translation classes. Here
+are the methods of :class:`NullTranslations`:
+
+
+.. class:: NullTranslations([fp])
+
+ Takes an optional file object *fp*, which is ignored by the base class.
+ Initializes "protected" instance variables *_info* and *_charset* which are set
+ by derived classes, as well as *_fallback*, which is set through
+ :meth:`add_fallback`. It then calls ``self._parse(fp)`` if *fp* is not
+ ``None``.
+
+
+ .. method:: _parse(fp)
+
+ No-op'd in the base class, this method takes file object *fp*, and reads
+ the data from the file, initializing its message catalog. If you have an
+ unsupported message catalog file format, you should override this method
+ to parse your format.
+
+
+ .. method:: add_fallback(fallback)
+
+ Add *fallback* as the fallback object for the current translation
+ object. A translation object should consult the fallback if it cannot provide a
+ translation for a given message.
+
+
+ .. method:: gettext(message)
+
+ If a fallback has been set, forward :meth:`gettext` to the
+ fallback. Otherwise, return the translated message. Overridden in derived
+ classes.
+
+
+ .. method:: lgettext(message)
+
+ If a fallback has been set, forward :meth:`lgettext` to the
+ fallback. Otherwise, return the translated message. Overridden in derived
+ classes.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+ .. method:: ugettext(message)
+
+ If a fallback has been set, forward :meth:`ugettext` to the
+ fallback. Otherwise, return the translated message as a Unicode
+ string. Overridden in derived classes.
+
+
+ .. method:: ngettext(singular, plural, n)
+
+ If a fallback has been set, forward :meth:`ngettext` to the
+ fallback. Otherwise, return the translated message. Overridden in derived
+ classes.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+ .. method:: lngettext(singular, plural, n)
+
+ If a fallback has been set, forward :meth:`lngettext` to the
+ fallback. Otherwise, return the translated message. Overridden in derived
+ classes.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+ .. method:: ungettext(singular, plural, n)
+
+ If a fallback has been set, forward :meth:`ungettext` to the fallback.
+ Otherwise, return the translated message as a Unicode string. Overridden
+ in derived classes.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+ .. method:: info()
+
+ Return the "protected" :attr:`_info` variable.
+
+
+ .. method:: charset()
+
+ Return the "protected" :attr:`_charset` variable.
+
+
+ .. method:: output_charset()
+
+ Return the "protected" :attr:`_output_charset` variable, which defines the
+ encoding used to return translated messages.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+ .. method:: set_output_charset(charset)
+
+ Change the "protected" :attr:`_output_charset` variable, which defines the
+ encoding used to return translated messages.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+ .. method:: install([unicode [, names]])
+
+ If the *unicode* flag is false, this method installs :meth:`self.gettext`
+ into the built-in namespace, binding it to ``_``. If *unicode* is true,
+ it binds :meth:`self.ugettext` instead. By default, *unicode* is false.
+
+ If the *names* parameter is given, it must be a sequence containing the
+ names of functions you want to install in the builtins namespace in
+ addition to :func:`_`. Supported names are ``'gettext'`` (bound to
+ :meth:`self.gettext` or :meth:`self.ugettext` according to the *unicode*
+ flag), ``'ngettext'`` (bound to :meth:`self.ngettext` or
+ :meth:`self.ungettext` according to the *unicode* flag), ``'lgettext'``
+ and ``'lngettext'``.
+
+ Note that this is only one way, albeit the most convenient way, to make
+ the :func:`_` function available to your application. Because it affects
+ the entire application globally, and specifically the built-in namespace,
+ localized modules should never install :func:`_`. Instead, they should use
+ this code to make :func:`_` available to their module::
+
+ import gettext
+ t = gettext.translation('mymodule', ...)
+ _ = t.gettext
+
+ This puts :func:`_` only in the module's global namespace and so only
+ affects calls within this module.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ Added the *names* parameter.
+
+
+The :class:`GNUTranslations` class
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The :mod:`gettext` module provides one additional class derived from
+:class:`NullTranslations`: :class:`GNUTranslations`. This class overrides
+:meth:`_parse` to enable reading GNU :program:`gettext` format :file:`.mo` files
+in both big-endian and little-endian format. It also coerces both message ids
+and message strings to Unicode.
+
+:class:`GNUTranslations` parses optional meta-data out of the translation
+catalog. It is convention with GNU :program:`gettext` to include meta-data as
+the translation for the empty string. This meta-data is in :rfc:`822`\ -style
+``key: value`` pairs, and should contain the ``Project-Id-Version`` key. If the
+key ``Content-Type`` is found, then the ``charset`` property is used to
+initialize the "protected" :attr:`_charset` instance variable, defaulting to
+``None`` if not found. If the charset encoding is specified, then all message
+ids and message strings read from the catalog are converted to Unicode using
+this encoding. The :meth:`ugettext` method always returns a Unicode, while the
+:meth:`gettext` returns an encoded 8-bit string. For the message id arguments
+of both methods, either Unicode strings or 8-bit strings containing only
+US-ASCII characters are acceptable. Note that the Unicode version of the
+methods (i.e. :meth:`ugettext` and :meth:`ungettext`) are the recommended
+interface to use for internationalized Python programs.
+
+The entire set of key/value pairs are placed into a dictionary and set as the
+"protected" :attr:`_info` instance variable.
+
+If the :file:`.mo` file's magic number is invalid, or if other problems occur
+while reading the file, instantiating a :class:`GNUTranslations` class can raise
+:exc:`IOError`.
+
+The following methods are overridden from the base class implementation:
+
+
+.. method:: GNUTranslations.gettext(message)
+
+ Look up the *message* id in the catalog and return the corresponding message
+ string, as an 8-bit string encoded with the catalog's charset encoding, if
+ known. If there is no entry in the catalog for the *message* id, and a fallback
+ has been set, the look up is forwarded to the fallback's :meth:`gettext` method.
+ Otherwise, the *message* id is returned.
+
+
+.. method:: GNUTranslations.lgettext(message)
+
+ Equivalent to :meth:`gettext`, but the translation is returned in the preferred
+ system encoding, if no other encoding was explicitly set with
+ :meth:`set_output_charset`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+.. method:: GNUTranslations.ugettext(message)
+
+ Look up the *message* id in the catalog and return the corresponding message
+ string, as a Unicode string. If there is no entry in the catalog for the
+ *message* id, and a fallback has been set, the look up is forwarded to the
+ fallback's :meth:`ugettext` method. Otherwise, the *message* id is returned.
+
+
+.. method:: GNUTranslations.ngettext(singular, plural, n)
+
+ Do a plural-forms lookup of a message id. *singular* is used as the message id
+ for purposes of lookup in the catalog, while *n* is used to determine which
+ plural form to use. The returned message string is an 8-bit string encoded with
+ the catalog's charset encoding, if known.
+
+ If the message id is not found in the catalog, and a fallback is specified, the
+ request is forwarded to the fallback's :meth:`ngettext` method. Otherwise, when
+ *n* is 1 *singular* is returned, and *plural* is returned in all other cases.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. method:: GNUTranslations.lngettext(singular, plural, n)
+
+ Equivalent to :meth:`gettext`, but the translation is returned in the preferred
+ system encoding, if no other encoding was explicitly set with
+ :meth:`set_output_charset`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+.. method:: GNUTranslations.ungettext(singular, plural, n)
+
+ Do a plural-forms lookup of a message id. *singular* is used as the message id
+ for purposes of lookup in the catalog, while *n* is used to determine which
+ plural form to use. The returned message string is a Unicode string.
+
+ If the message id is not found in the catalog, and a fallback is specified, the
+ request is forwarded to the fallback's :meth:`ungettext` method. Otherwise,
+ when *n* is 1 *singular* is returned, and *plural* is returned in all other
+ cases.
+
+ Here is an example::
+
+ n = len(os.listdir('.'))
+ cat = GNUTranslations(somefile)
+ message = cat.ungettext(
+ 'There is %(num)d file in this directory',
+ 'There are %(num)d files in this directory',
+ n) % {'num': n}
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+Solaris message catalog support
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The Solaris operating system defines its own binary :file:`.mo` file format, but
+since no documentation can be found on this format, it is not supported at this
+time.
+
+
+The Catalog constructor
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. index:: single: GNOME
+
+GNOME uses a version of the :mod:`gettext` module by James Henstridge, but this
+version has a slightly different API. Its documented usage was::
+
+ import gettext
+ cat = gettext.Catalog(domain, localedir)
+ _ = cat.gettext
+ print _('hello world')
+
+For compatibility with this older module, the function :func:`Catalog` is an
+alias for the :func:`translation` function described above.
+
+One difference between this module and Henstridge's: his catalog objects
+supported access through a mapping API, but this appears to be unused and so is
+not currently supported.
+
+
+Internationalizing your programs and modules
+--------------------------------------------
+
+Internationalization (I18N) refers to the operation by which a program is made
+aware of multiple languages. Localization (L10N) refers to the adaptation of
+your program, once internationalized, to the local language and cultural habits.
+In order to provide multilingual messages for your Python programs, you need to
+take the following steps:
+
+#. prepare your program or module by specially marking translatable strings
+
+#. run a suite of tools over your marked files to generate raw messages catalogs
+
+#. create language specific translations of the message catalogs
+
+#. use the :mod:`gettext` module so that message strings are properly translated
+
+In order to prepare your code for I18N, you need to look at all the strings in
+your files. Any string that needs to be translated should be marked by wrapping
+it in ``_('...')`` --- that is, a call to the function :func:`_`. For example::
+
+ filename = 'mylog.txt'
+ message = _('writing a log message')
+ fp = open(filename, 'w')
+ fp.write(message)
+ fp.close()
+
+In this example, the string ``'writing a log message'`` is marked as a candidate
+for translation, while the strings ``'mylog.txt'`` and ``'w'`` are not.
+
+The Python distribution comes with two tools which help you generate the message
+catalogs once you've prepared your source code. These may or may not be
+available from a binary distribution, but they can be found in a source
+distribution, in the :file:`Tools/i18n` directory.
+
+The :program:`pygettext` [#]_ program scans all your Python source code looking
+for the strings you previously marked as translatable. It is similar to the GNU
+:program:`gettext` program except that it understands all the intricacies of
+Python source code, but knows nothing about C or C++ source code. You don't
+need GNU ``gettext`` unless you're also going to be translating C code (such as
+C extension modules).
+
+:program:`pygettext` generates textual Uniforum-style human readable message
+catalog :file:`.pot` files, essentially structured human readable files which
+contain every marked string in the source code, along with a placeholder for the
+translation strings. :program:`pygettext` is a command line script that supports
+a similar command line interface as :program:`xgettext`; for details on its use,
+run::
+
+ pygettext.py --help
+
+Copies of these :file:`.pot` files are then handed over to the individual human
+translators who write language-specific versions for every supported natural
+language. They send you back the filled in language-specific versions as a
+:file:`.po` file. Using the :program:`msgfmt.py` [#]_ program (in the
+:file:`Tools/i18n` directory), you take the :file:`.po` files from your
+translators and generate the machine-readable :file:`.mo` binary catalog files.
+The :file:`.mo` files are what the :mod:`gettext` module uses for the actual
+translation processing during run-time.
+
+How you use the :mod:`gettext` module in your code depends on whether you are
+internationalizing a single module or your entire application. The next two
+sections will discuss each case.
+
+
+Localizing your module
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+If you are localizing your module, you must take care not to make global
+changes, e.g. to the built-in namespace. You should not use the GNU ``gettext``
+API but instead the class-based API.
+
+Let's say your module is called "spam" and the module's various natural language
+translation :file:`.mo` files reside in :file:`/usr/share/locale` in GNU
+:program:`gettext` format. Here's what you would put at the top of your
+module::
+
+ import gettext
+ t = gettext.translation('spam', '/usr/share/locale')
+ _ = t.lgettext
+
+If your translators were providing you with Unicode strings in their :file:`.po`
+files, you'd instead do::
+
+ import gettext
+ t = gettext.translation('spam', '/usr/share/locale')
+ _ = t.ugettext
+
+
+Localizing your application
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+If you are localizing your application, you can install the :func:`_` function
+globally into the built-in namespace, usually in the main driver file of your
+application. This will let all your application-specific files just use
+``_('...')`` without having to explicitly install it in each file.
+
+In the simple case then, you need only add the following bit of code to the main
+driver file of your application::
+
+ import gettext
+ gettext.install('myapplication')
+
+If you need to set the locale directory or the *unicode* flag, you can pass
+these into the :func:`install` function::
+
+ import gettext
+ gettext.install('myapplication', '/usr/share/locale', unicode=1)
+
+
+Changing languages on the fly
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+If your program needs to support many languages at the same time, you may want
+to create multiple translation instances and then switch between them
+explicitly, like so::
+
+ import gettext
+
+ lang1 = gettext.translation('myapplication', languages=['en'])
+ lang2 = gettext.translation('myapplication', languages=['fr'])
+ lang3 = gettext.translation('myapplication', languages=['de'])
+
+ # start by using language1
+ lang1.install()
+
+ # ... time goes by, user selects language 2
+ lang2.install()
+
+ # ... more time goes by, user selects language 3
+ lang3.install()
+
+
+Deferred translations
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+In most coding situations, strings are translated where they are coded.
+Occasionally however, you need to mark strings for translation, but defer actual
+translation until later. A classic example is::
+
+ animals = ['mollusk',
+ 'albatross',
+ 'rat',
+ 'penguin',
+ 'python', ]
+ # ...
+ for a in animals:
+ print a
+
+Here, you want to mark the strings in the ``animals`` list as being
+translatable, but you don't actually want to translate them until they are
+printed.
+
+Here is one way you can handle this situation::
+
+ def _(message): return message
+
+ animals = [_('mollusk'),
+ _('albatross'),
+ _('rat'),
+ _('penguin'),
+ _('python'), ]
+
+ del _
+
+ # ...
+ for a in animals:
+ print _(a)
+
+This works because the dummy definition of :func:`_` simply returns the string
+unchanged. And this dummy definition will temporarily override any definition
+of :func:`_` in the built-in namespace (until the :keyword:`del` command). Take
+care, though if you have a previous definition of :func:`_` in the local
+namespace.
+
+Note that the second use of :func:`_` will not identify "a" as being
+translatable to the :program:`pygettext` program, since it is not a string.
+
+Another way to handle this is with the following example::
+
+ def N_(message): return message
+
+ animals = [N_('mollusk'),
+ N_('albatross'),
+ N_('rat'),
+ N_('penguin'),
+ N_('python'), ]
+
+ # ...
+ for a in animals:
+ print _(a)
+
+In this case, you are marking translatable strings with the function :func:`N_`,
+[#]_ which won't conflict with any definition of :func:`_`. However, you will
+need to teach your message extraction program to look for translatable strings
+marked with :func:`N_`. :program:`pygettext` and :program:`xpot` both support
+this through the use of command line switches.
+
+
+:func:`gettext` vs. :func:`lgettext`
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+In Python 2.4 the :func:`lgettext` family of functions were introduced. The
+intention of these functions is to provide an alternative which is more
+compliant with the current implementation of GNU gettext. Unlike
+:func:`gettext`, which returns strings encoded with the same codeset used in the
+translation file, :func:`lgettext` will return strings encoded with the
+preferred system encoding, as returned by :func:`locale.getpreferredencoding`.
+Also notice that Python 2.4 introduces new functions to explicitly choose the
+codeset used in translated strings. If a codeset is explicitly set, even
+:func:`lgettext` will return translated strings in the requested codeset, as
+would be expected in the GNU gettext implementation.

+:mod:`gl` --- *Graphics Library* interface
+==========================================
+
+.. module:: gl
+ :platform: IRIX
+ :synopsis: Functions from the Silicon Graphics Graphics Library.
+ :deprecated:
+
+
+.. deprecated:: 2.6
+ The :mod:`gl` module has been removed in Python 3.
+
+
+This module provides access to the Silicon Graphics *Graphics Library*. It is
+available only on Silicon Graphics machines.
+
+.. warning::
+
+ Some illegal calls to the GL library cause the Python interpreter to dump
+ core. In particular, the use of most GL calls is unsafe before the first
+ window is opened.
+
+The module is too large to document here in its entirety, but the following
+should help you to get started. The parameter conventions for the C functions
+are translated to Python as follows:
+
+* All (short, long, unsigned) int values are represented by Python integers.
+
+* All float and double values are represented by Python floating point numbers.
+ In most cases, Python integers are also allowed.
+
+* All arrays are represented by one-dimensional Python lists. In most cases,
+ tuples are also allowed.
+
+* All string and character arguments are represented by Python strings, for
+ instance, ``winopen('Hi There!')`` and ``rotate(900, 'z')``.
+
+* All (short, long, unsigned) integer arguments or return values that are only
+ used to specify the length of an array argument are omitted. For example, the C
+ call ::
+
+ lmdef(deftype, index, np, props)
+
+ is translated to Python as ::
+
+ lmdef(deftype, index, props)
+
+* Output arguments are omitted from the argument list; they are transmitted as
+ function return values instead. If more than one value must be returned, the
+ return value is a tuple. If the C function has both a regular return value (that
+ is not omitted because of the previous rule) and an output argument, the return
+ value comes first in the tuple. Examples: the C call ::
+
+ getmcolor(i, &red, &green, &blue)
+
+ is translated to Python as ::
+
+ red, green, blue = getmcolor(i)
+
+The following functions are non-standard or have special argument conventions:
+
+
+.. function:: varray(argument)
+
+ Equivalent to but faster than a number of ``v3d()`` calls. The *argument* is a
+ list (or tuple) of points. Each point must be a tuple of coordinates ``(x, y,
+ z)`` or ``(x, y)``. The points may be 2- or 3-dimensional but must all have the
+ same dimension. Float and int values may be mixed however. The points are always
+ converted to 3D double precision points by assuming ``z = 0.0`` if necessary (as
+ indicated in the man page), and for each point ``v3d()`` is called.
+
+ .. XXX the argument-argument added
+
+
+.. function:: nvarray()
+
+ Equivalent to but faster than a number of ``n3f`` and ``v3f`` calls. The
+ argument is an array (list or tuple) of pairs of normals and points. Each pair
+ is a tuple of a point and a normal for that point. Each point or normal must be
+ a tuple of coordinates ``(x, y, z)``. Three coordinates must be given. Float and
+ int values may be mixed. For each pair, ``n3f()`` is called for the normal, and
+ then ``v3f()`` is called for the point.
+
+
+.. function:: vnarray()
+
+ Similar to ``nvarray()`` but the pairs have the point first and the normal
+ second.
+
+
+.. function:: nurbssurface(s_k, t_k, ctl, s_ord, t_ord, type)
+
+ Defines a nurbs surface. The dimensions of ``ctl[][]`` are computed as follows:
+ ``[len(s_k) - s_ord]``, ``[len(t_k) - t_ord]``.
+
+ .. XXX s_k[], t_k[], ctl[][]
+
+

+:mod:`glob` --- Unix style pathname pattern expansion
+=====================================================
+
+.. module:: glob
+ :synopsis: Unix shell style pathname pattern expansion.
+
+
+.. index:: single: filenames; pathname expansion
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/glob.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`glob` module finds all the pathnames matching a specified pattern
+according to the rules used by the Unix shell. No tilde expansion is done, but
+``*``, ``?``, and character ranges expressed with ``[]`` will be correctly
+matched. This is done by using the :func:`os.listdir` and
+:func:`fnmatch.fnmatch` functions in concert, and not by actually invoking a
+subshell. Note that unlike :func:`fnmatch.fnmatch`, :mod:`glob` treats
+filenames beginning with a dot (``.``) as special cases. (For tilde and shell
+variable expansion, use :func:`os.path.expanduser` and
+:func:`os.path.expandvars`.)
+
+For a literal match, wrap the meta-characters in brackets.
+For example, ``'[?]'`` matches the character ``'?'``.
+
+
+.. function:: glob(pathname)
+
+ Return a possibly-empty list of path names that match *pathname*, which must be
+ a string containing a path specification. *pathname* can be either absolute
+ (like :file:`/usr/src/Python-1.5/Makefile`) or relative (like
+ :file:`../../Tools/\*/\*.gif`), and can contain shell-style wildcards. Broken
+ symlinks are included in the results (as in the shell).
+
+
+.. function:: iglob(pathname)
+
+ Return an :term:`iterator` which yields the same values as :func:`glob`
+ without actually storing them all simultaneously.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+For example, consider a directory containing only the following files:
+:file:`1.gif`, :file:`2.txt`, and :file:`card.gif`. :func:`glob` will produce
+the following results. Notice how any leading components of the path are
+preserved. ::
+
+ >>> import glob
+ >>> glob.glob('./[0-9].*')
+ ['./1.gif', './2.txt']
+ >>> glob.glob('*.gif')
+ ['1.gif', 'card.gif']
+ >>> glob.glob('?.gif')
+ ['1.gif']
+
+If the directory contains files starting with ``.`` they won't be matched by
+default. For example, consider a directory containing :file:`card.gif` and
+:file:`.card.gif`::
+
+ >>> import glob
+ >>> glob.glob('*.gif')
+ ['card.gif']
+ >>> glob.glob('.c*')

+:mod:`gzip` --- Support for :program:`gzip` files
+=================================================
+
+.. module:: gzip
+ :synopsis: Interfaces for gzip compression and decompression using file objects.
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/gzip.py`
+
+--------------
+
+This module provides a simple interface to compress and decompress files just
+like the GNU programs :program:`gzip` and :program:`gunzip` would.
+
+The data compression is provided by the :mod:`zlib` module.
+
+The :mod:`gzip` module provides the :class:`GzipFile` class which is modeled
+after Python's File Object. The :class:`GzipFile` class reads and writes
+:program:`gzip`\ -format files, automatically compressing or decompressing the
+data so that it looks like an ordinary file object.
+
+Note that additional file formats which can be decompressed by the
+:program:`gzip` and :program:`gunzip` programs, such as those produced by
+:program:`compress` and :program:`pack`, are not supported by this module.
+
+The module defines the following items:
+
+
+.. class:: GzipFile([filename[, mode[, compresslevel[, fileobj[, mtime]]]]])
+
+ Constructor for the :class:`GzipFile` class, which simulates most of the methods
+ of a file object, with the exception of the :meth:`readinto` and
+ :meth:`truncate` methods. At least one of *fileobj* and *filename* must be
+ given a non-trivial value.
+
+ The new class instance is based on *fileobj*, which can be a regular file, a
+ :class:`StringIO` object, or any other object which simulates a file. It
+ defaults to ``None``, in which case *filename* is opened to provide a file
+ object.
+
+ When *fileobj* is not ``None``, the *filename* argument is only used to be
+ included in the :program:`gzip` file header, which may includes the original
+ filename of the uncompressed file. It defaults to the filename of *fileobj*, if
+ discernible; otherwise, it defaults to the empty string, and in this case the
+ original filename is not included in the header.
+
+ The *mode* argument can be any of ``'r'``, ``'rb'``, ``'a'``, ``'ab'``, ``'w'``,
+ or ``'wb'``, depending on whether the file will be read or written. The default
+ is the mode of *fileobj* if discernible; otherwise, the default is ``'rb'``. If
+ not given, the 'b' flag will be added to the mode to ensure the file is opened
+ in binary mode for cross-platform portability.
+
+ The *compresslevel* argument is an integer from ``0`` to ``9`` controlling
+ the level of compression; ``1`` is fastest and produces the least
+ compression, and ``9`` is slowest and produces the most compression. ``0``
+ is no compression. The default is ``9``.
+
+ The *mtime* argument is an optional numeric timestamp to be written to
+ the stream when compressing. All :program:`gzip` compressed streams are
+ required to contain a timestamp. If omitted or ``None``, the current
+ time is used. This module ignores the timestamp when decompressing;
+ however, some programs, such as :program:`gunzip`\ , make use of it.
+ The format of the timestamp is the same as that of the return value of
+ ``time.time()`` and of the ``st_mtime`` attribute of the object returned
+ by ``os.stat()``.
+
+ Calling a :class:`GzipFile` object's :meth:`close` method does not close
+ *fileobj*, since you might wish to append more material after the compressed
+ data. This also allows you to pass a :class:`StringIO` object opened for
+ writing as *fileobj*, and retrieve the resulting memory buffer using the
+ :class:`StringIO` object's :meth:`getvalue` method.
+
+ :class:`GzipFile` supports iteration and the :keyword:`with` statement.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ Support for the :keyword:`with` statement was added.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ Support for zero-padded files was added.
+
+
+.. function:: open(filename[, mode[, compresslevel]])
+
+ This is a shorthand for ``GzipFile(filename,`` ``mode,`` ``compresslevel)``.
+ The *filename* argument is required; *mode* defaults to ``'rb'`` and
+ *compresslevel* defaults to ``9``.

+
+--------------
+
+This module implements a common interface to many different secure hash and
+message digest algorithms. Included are the FIPS secure hash algorithms SHA1,
+SHA224, SHA256, SHA384, and SHA512 (defined in FIPS 180-2) as well as RSA's MD5
+algorithm (defined in Internet :rfc:`1321`). The terms secure hash and message
+digest are interchangeable. Older algorithms were called message digests. The
+modern term is secure hash.
+
+.. note::
+ If you want the adler32 or crc32 hash functions they are available in
+ the :mod:`zlib` module.
+
+.. warning::
+
+ Some algorithms have known hash collision weaknesses, see the FAQ at the end.
+
+There is one constructor method named for each type of :dfn:`hash`. All return
+a hash object with the same simple interface. For example: use :func:`sha1` to
+create a SHA1 hash object. You can now feed this object with arbitrary strings
+using the :meth:`update` method. At any point you can ask it for the
+:dfn:`digest` of the concatenation of the strings fed to it so far using the
+:meth:`digest` or :meth:`hexdigest` methods.
+
+.. index:: single: OpenSSL; (use in module hashlib)
+
+Constructors for hash algorithms that are always present in this module are
+:func:`md5`, :func:`sha1`, :func:`sha224`, :func:`sha256`, :func:`sha384`, and
+:func:`sha512`. Additional algorithms may also be available depending upon the
+OpenSSL library that Python uses on your platform.
+
+For example, to obtain the digest of the string ``'Nobody inspects the spammish
+repetition'``:
+
+ >>> import hashlib
+ >>> m = hashlib.md5()
+ >>> m.update("Nobody inspects")
+ >>> m.update(" the spammish repetition")
+ >>> m.digest()
+ '\xbbd\x9c\x83\xdd\x1e\xa5\xc9\xd9\xde\xc9\xa1\x8d\xf0\xff\xe9'
+ >>> m.digest_size
+ 16
+ >>> m.block_size
+ 64
+
+More condensed:
+
+ >>> hashlib.sha224("Nobody inspects the spammish repetition").hexdigest()
+ 'a4337bc45a8fc544c03f52dc550cd6e1e87021bc896588bd79e901e2'
+
+A generic :func:`new` constructor that takes the string name of the desired
+algorithm as its first parameter also exists to allow access to the above listed
+hashes as well as any other algorithms that your OpenSSL library may offer. The
+named constructors are much faster than :func:`new` and should be preferred.
+
+Using :func:`new` with an algorithm provided by OpenSSL:
+
+ >>> h = hashlib.new('ripemd160')
+ >>> h.update("Nobody inspects the spammish repetition")
+ >>> h.hexdigest()
+ 'cc4a5ce1b3df48aec5d22d1f16b894a0b894eccc'
+
+This module provides the following constant attribute:
+
+.. data:: hashlib.algorithms
+
+ A tuple providing the names of the hash algorithms guaranteed to be
+ supported by this module.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+The following values are provided as constant attributes of the hash objects
+returned by the constructors:
+
+
+.. data:: hash.digest_size
+
+ The size of the resulting hash in bytes.
+
+.. data:: hash.block_size
+
+ The internal block size of the hash algorithm in bytes.
+
+A hash object has the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: hash.update(arg)
+
+ Update the hash object with the string *arg*. Repeated calls are equivalent to
+ a single call with the concatenation of all the arguments: ``m.update(a);
+ m.update(b)`` is equivalent to ``m.update(a+b)``.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+
+ The Python GIL is released to allow other threads to run while
+ hash updates on data larger than 2048 bytes is taking place when
+ using hash algorithms supplied by OpenSSL.
+
+
+.. method:: hash.digest()
+
+ Return the digest of the strings passed to the :meth:`update` method so far.
+ This is a string of :attr:`digest_size` bytes which may contain non-ASCII
+ characters, including null bytes.
+
+
+.. method:: hash.hexdigest()
+
+ Like :meth:`digest` except the digest is returned as a string of double length,
+ containing only hexadecimal digits. This may be used to exchange the value
+ safely in email or other non-binary environments.
+
+
+.. method:: hash.copy()
+
+ Return a copy ("clone") of the hash object. This can be used to efficiently
+ compute the digests of strings that share a common initial substring.

+:mod:`heapq` --- Heap queue algorithm
+=====================================
+
+.. module:: heapq
+ :synopsis: Heap queue algorithm (a.k.a. priority queue).
+.. moduleauthor:: Kevin O'Connor
+.. sectionauthor:: Guido van Rossum <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: François Pinard
+.. sectionauthor:: Raymond Hettinger
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/heapq.py`
+
+--------------
+
+This module provides an implementation of the heap queue algorithm, also known
+as the priority queue algorithm.
+
+Heaps are binary trees for which every parent node has a value less than or
+equal to any of its children. This implementation uses arrays for which
+``heap[k] <= heap[2*k+1]`` and ``heap[k] <= heap[2*k+2]`` for all *k*, counting
+elements from zero. For the sake of comparison, non-existing elements are
+considered to be infinite. The interesting property of a heap is that its
+smallest element is always the root, ``heap[0]``.
+
+The API below differs from textbook heap algorithms in two aspects: (a) We use
+zero-based indexing. This makes the relationship between the index for a node
+and the indexes for its children slightly less obvious, but is more suitable
+since Python uses zero-based indexing. (b) Our pop method returns the smallest
+item, not the largest (called a "min heap" in textbooks; a "max heap" is more
+common in texts because of its suitability for in-place sorting).
+
+These two make it possible to view the heap as a regular Python list without
+surprises: ``heap[0]`` is the smallest item, and ``heap.sort()`` maintains the
+heap invariant!
+
+To create a heap, use a list initialized to ``[]``, or you can transform a
+populated list into a heap via function :func:`heapify`.
+
+The following functions are provided:
+
+
+.. function:: heappush(heap, item)
+
+ Push the value *item* onto the *heap*, maintaining the heap invariant.
+
+
+.. function:: heappop(heap)
+
+ Pop and return the smallest item from the *heap*, maintaining the heap
+ invariant. If the heap is empty, :exc:`IndexError` is raised.
+
+.. function:: heappushpop(heap, item)
+
+ Push *item* on the heap, then pop and return the smallest item from the
+ *heap*. The combined action runs more efficiently than :func:`heappush`
+ followed by a separate call to :func:`heappop`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+.. function:: heapify(x)
+
+ Transform list *x* into a heap, in-place, in linear time.
+
+
+.. function:: heapreplace(heap, item)
+
+ Pop and return the smallest item from the *heap*, and also push the new *item*.
+ The heap size doesn't change. If the heap is empty, :exc:`IndexError` is raised.
+
+ This one step operation is more efficient than a :func:`heappop` followed by
+ :func:`heappush` and can be more appropriate when using a fixed-size heap.
+ The pop/push combination always returns an element from the heap and replaces
+ it with *item*.
+
+ The value returned may be larger than the *item* added. If that isn't
+ desired, consider using :func:`heappushpop` instead. Its push/pop
+ combination returns the smaller of the two values, leaving the larger value
+ on the heap.
+
+
+The module also offers three general purpose functions based on heaps.
+
+
+.. function:: merge(*iterables)
+
+ Merge multiple sorted inputs into a single sorted output (for example, merge
+ timestamped entries from multiple log files). Returns an :term:`iterator`
+ over the sorted values.
+
+ Similar to ``sorted(itertools.chain(*iterables))`` but returns an iterable, does
+ not pull the data into memory all at once, and assumes that each of the input
+ streams is already sorted (smallest to largest).
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: nlargest(n, iterable[, key])
+
+ Return a list with the *n* largest elements from the dataset defined by
+ *iterable*. *key*, if provided, specifies a function of one argument that is
+ used to extract a comparison key from each element in the iterable:
+ ``key=str.lower`` Equivalent to: ``sorted(iterable, key=key,
+ reverse=True)[:n]``
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ Added the optional *key* argument.
+
+
+.. function:: nsmallest(n, iterable[, key])
+
+ Return a list with the *n* smallest elements from the dataset defined by
+ *iterable*. *key*, if provided, specifies a function of one argument that is
+ used to extract a comparison key from each element in the iterable:
+ ``key=str.lower`` Equivalent to: ``sorted(iterable, key=key)[:n]``
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ Added the optional *key* argument.
+
+The latter two functions perform best for smaller values of *n*. For larger
+values, it is more efficient to use the :func:`sorted` function. Also, when
+``n==1``, it is more efficient to use the built-in :func:`min` and :func:`max`
+functions.
+
+
+Basic Examples
+--------------
+
+A `heapsort <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heapsort>`_ can be implemented by
+pushing all values onto a heap and then popping off the smallest values one at a
+time::
+
+ >>> def heapsort(iterable):
+ ... 'Equivalent to sorted(iterable)'
+ ... h = []
+ ... for value in iterable:
+ ... heappush(h, value)
+ ... return [heappop(h) for i in range(len(h))]
+ ...
+ >>> heapsort([1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 2, 4, 6, 8, 0])
+ [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
+
+Heap elements can be tuples. This is useful for assigning comparison values
+(such as task priorities) alongside the main record being tracked::
+
+ >>> h = []
+ >>> heappush(h, (5, 'write code'))
+ >>> heappush(h, (7, 'release product'))
+ >>> heappush(h, (1, 'write spec'))
+ >>> heappush(h, (3, 'create tests'))
+ >>> heappop(h)
+ (1, 'write spec')
+
+
+Priority Queue Implementation Notes
+-----------------------------------
+
+A `priority queue <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Priority_queue>`_ is common use
+for a heap, and it presents several implementation challenges:
+
+* Sort stability: how do you get two tasks with equal priorities to be returned
+ in the order they were originally added?
+
+* In the future with Python 3, tuple comparison breaks for (priority, task)
+ pairs if the priorities are equal and the tasks do not have a default
+ comparison order.
+
+* If the priority of a task changes, how do you move it to a new position in
+ the heap?
+
+* Or if a pending task needs to be deleted, how do you find it and remove it
+ from the queue?
+
+A solution to the first two challenges is to store entries as 3-element list
+including the priority, an entry count, and the task. The entry count serves as
+a tie-breaker so that two tasks with the same priority are returned in the order
+they were added. And since no two entry counts are the same, the tuple
+comparison will never attempt to directly compare two tasks.
+
+The remaining challenges revolve around finding a pending task and making
+changes to its priority or removing it entirely. Finding a task can be done
+with a dictionary pointing to an entry in the queue.
+
+Removing the entry or changing its priority is more difficult because it would
+break the heap structure invariants. So, a possible solution is to mark the
+existing entry as removed and add a new entry with the revised priority::
+
+ pq = [] # list of entries arranged in a heap
+ entry_finder = {} # mapping of tasks to entries
+ REMOVED = '<removed-task>' # placeholder for a removed task
+ counter = itertools.count() # unique sequence count
+
+ def add_task(task, priority=0):
+ 'Add a new task or update the priority of an existing task'
+ if task in entry_finder:
+ remove_task(task)
+ count = next(counter)
+ entry = [priority, count, task]
+ entry_finder[task] = entry
+ heappush(pq, entry)
+
+ def remove_task(task):
+ 'Mark an existing task as REMOVED. Raise KeyError if not found.'
+ entry = entry_finder.pop(task)
+ entry[-1] = REMOVED
+
+ def pop_task():
+ 'Remove and return the lowest priority task. Raise KeyError if empty.'
+ while pq:
+ priority, count, task = heappop(pq)
+ if task is not REMOVED:
+ del entry_finder[task]
+ return task
+ raise KeyError('pop from an empty priority queue')
+
+
+Theory
+------
+
+Heaps are arrays for which ``a[k] <= a[2*k+1]`` and ``a[k] <= a[2*k+2]`` for all
+*k*, counting elements from 0. For the sake of comparison, non-existing
+elements are considered to be infinite. The interesting property of a heap is
+that ``a[0]`` is always its smallest element.
+
+The strange invariant above is meant to be an efficient memory representation
+for a tournament. The numbers below are *k*, not ``a[k]``::
+
+ 0
+
+ 1 2
+
+ 3 4 5 6
+
+ 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14
+
+ 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30
+
+In the tree above, each cell *k* is topping ``2*k+1`` and ``2*k+2``. In an usual
+binary tournament we see in sports, each cell is the winner over the two cells
+it tops, and we can trace the winner down the tree to see all opponents s/he
+had. However, in many computer applications of such tournaments, we do not need
+to trace the history of a winner. To be more memory efficient, when a winner is
+promoted, we try to replace it by something else at a lower level, and the rule
+becomes that a cell and the two cells it tops contain three different items, but
+the top cell "wins" over the two topped cells.
+
+If this heap invariant is protected at all time, index 0 is clearly the overall
+winner. The simplest algorithmic way to remove it and find the "next" winner is
+to move some loser (let's say cell 30 in the diagram above) into the 0 position,
+and then percolate this new 0 down the tree, exchanging values, until the
+invariant is re-established. This is clearly logarithmic on the total number of
+items in the tree. By iterating over all items, you get an O(n log n) sort.
+
+A nice feature of this sort is that you can efficiently insert new items while
+the sort is going on, provided that the inserted items are not "better" than the
+last 0'th element you extracted. This is especially useful in simulation
+contexts, where the tree holds all incoming events, and the "win" condition
+means the smallest scheduled time. When an event schedule other events for
+execution, they are scheduled into the future, so they can easily go into the
+heap. So, a heap is a good structure for implementing schedulers (this is what
+I used for my MIDI sequencer :-).
+
+Various structures for implementing schedulers have been extensively studied,
+and heaps are good for this, as they are reasonably speedy, the speed is almost
+constant, and the worst case is not much different than the average case.
+However, there are other representations which are more efficient overall, yet
+the worst cases might be terrible.
+
+Heaps are also very useful in big disk sorts. You most probably all know that a
+big sort implies producing "runs" (which are pre-sorted sequences, which size is
+usually related to the amount of CPU memory), followed by a merging passes for
+these runs, which merging is often very cleverly organised [#]_. It is very
+important that the initial sort produces the longest runs possible. Tournaments
+are a good way to that. If, using all the memory available to hold a
+tournament, you replace and percolate items that happen to fit the current run,
+you'll produce runs which are twice the size of the memory for random input, and
+much better for input fuzzily ordered.
+
+Moreover, if you output the 0'th item on disk and get an input which may not fit
+in the current tournament (because the value "wins" over the last output value),
+it cannot fit in the heap, so the size of the heap decreases. The freed memory
+could be cleverly reused immediately for progressively building a second heap,
+which grows at exactly the same rate the first heap is melting. When the first
+heap completely vanishes, you switch heaps and start a new run. Clever and
+quite effective!
+
+In a word, heaps are useful memory structures to know. I use them in a few
+applications, and I think it is good to keep a 'heap' module around. :-)
+
+.. rubric:: Footnotes
+
+.. [#] The disk balancing algorithms which are current, nowadays, are more annoying
+ than clever, and this is a consequence of the seeking capabilities of the disks.
+ On devices which cannot seek, like big tape drives, the story was quite
+ different, and one had to be very clever to ensure (far in advance) that each
+ tape movement will be the most effective possible (that is, will best
+ participate at "progressing" the merge). Some tapes were even able to read
+ backwards, and this was also used to avoid the rewinding time. Believe me, real
+ good tape sorts were quite spectacular to watch! From all times, sorting has
+ always been a Great Art! :-)

+.. moduleauthor:: Gerhard Häring <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Gerhard Häring <[email protected]>

+
+.. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/hmac.py`
+
+--------------
+
+This module implements the HMAC algorithm as described by :rfc:`2104`.
+
+
+.. function:: new(key[, msg[, digestmod]])
+
+ Return a new hmac object. If *msg* is present, the method call ``update(msg)``
+ is made. *digestmod* is the digest constructor or module for the HMAC object to
+ use. It defaults to the :func:`hashlib.md5` constructor.
+
+
+An HMAC object has the following methods:
+
+.. method:: HMAC.update(msg)
+
+ Update the hmac object with the string *msg*. Repeated calls are equivalent to
+ a single call with the concatenation of all the arguments: ``m.update(a);
+ m.update(b)`` is equivalent to ``m.update(a + b)``.
+
+
+.. method:: HMAC.digest()
+
+ Return the digest of the strings passed to the :meth:`update` method so far.
+ This string will be the same length as the *digest_size* of the digest given to
+ the constructor. It may contain non-ASCII characters, including NUL bytes.
+
+
+.. method:: HMAC.hexdigest()
+
+ Like :meth:`digest` except the digest is returned as a string twice the length
+ containing only hexadecimal digits. This may be used to exchange the value
+ safely in email or other non-binary environments.
+
+
+.. method:: HMAC.copy()
+
+ Return a copy ("clone") of the hmac object. This can be used to efficiently
+ compute the digests of strings that share a common initial substring.

+:mod:`hotshot` --- High performance logging profiler
+====================================================
+
+.. module:: hotshot
+ :synopsis: High performance logging profiler, mostly written in C.
+.. moduleauthor:: Fred L. Drake, Jr. <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Anthony Baxter <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+This module provides a nicer interface to the :mod:`_hotshot` C module. Hotshot
+is a replacement for the existing :mod:`profile` module. As it's written mostly
+in C, it should result in a much smaller performance impact than the existing
+:mod:`profile` module.
+
+.. note::
+
+ The :mod:`hotshot` module focuses on minimizing the overhead while profiling, at
+ the expense of long data post-processing times. For common usage it is
+ recommended to use :mod:`cProfile` instead. :mod:`hotshot` is not maintained and
+ might be removed from the standard library in the future.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ The results should be more meaningful than in the past: the timing core
+ contained a critical bug.
+
+.. note::
+
+ The :mod:`hotshot` profiler does not yet work well with threads. It is useful to
+ use an unthreaded script to run the profiler over the code you're interested in
+ measuring if at all possible.
+
+
+.. class:: Profile(logfile[, lineevents[, linetimings]])
+
+ The profiler object. The argument *logfile* is the name of a log file to use for
+ logged profile data. The argument *lineevents* specifies whether to generate
+ events for every source line, or just on function call/return. It defaults to
+ ``0`` (only log function call/return). The argument *linetimings* specifies
+ whether to record timing information. It defaults to ``1`` (store timing
+ information).
+
+
+.. _hotshot-objects:
+
+Profile Objects
+---------------
+
+Profile objects have the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: Profile.addinfo(key, value)
+
+ Add an arbitrary labelled value to the profile output.
+
+
+.. method:: Profile.close()
+
+ Close the logfile and terminate the profiler.
+
+
+.. method:: Profile.fileno()
+
+ Return the file descriptor of the profiler's log file.
+
+
+.. method:: Profile.run(cmd)
+
+ Profile an :keyword:`exec`\ -compatible string in the script environment. The
+ globals from the :mod:`__main__` module are used as both the globals and locals
+ for the script.
+
+
+.. method:: Profile.runcall(func, *args, **keywords)
+
+ Profile a single call of a callable. Additional positional and keyword arguments
+ may be passed along; the result of the call is returned, and exceptions are
+ allowed to propagate cleanly, while ensuring that profiling is disabled on the
+ way out.
+
+
+.. method:: Profile.runctx(cmd, globals, locals)
+
+ Evaluate an :keyword:`exec`\ -compatible string in a specific environment. The
+ string is compiled before profiling begins.
+
+
+.. method:: Profile.start()
+
+ Start the profiler.

+:mod:`htmllib` --- A parser for HTML documents
+==============================================
+
+.. module:: htmllib
+ :synopsis: A parser for HTML documents.
+ :deprecated:
+
+.. deprecated:: 2.6
+ The :mod:`htmllib` module has been removed in Python 3.
+
+
+.. index::
+ single: HTML
+ single: hypertext
+
+.. index::
+ module: sgmllib
+ module: formatter
+ single: SGMLParser (in module sgmllib)
+
+This module defines a class which can serve as a base for parsing text files
+formatted in the HyperText Mark-up Language (HTML). The class is not directly
+concerned with I/O --- it must be provided with input in string form via a
+method, and makes calls to methods of a "formatter" object in order to produce
+output. The :class:`HTMLParser` class is designed to be used as a base class
+for other classes in order to add functionality, and allows most of its methods
+to be extended or overridden. In turn, this class is derived from and extends
+the :class:`SGMLParser` class defined in module :mod:`sgmllib`. The
+:class:`HTMLParser` implementation supports the HTML 2.0 language as described
+in :rfc:`1866`. Two implementations of formatter objects are provided in the
+:mod:`formatter` module; refer to the documentation for that module for
+information on the formatter interface.
+
+The following is a summary of the interface defined by
+:class:`sgmllib.SGMLParser`:
+
+* The interface to feed data to an instance is through the :meth:`feed` method,
+ which takes a string argument. This can be called with as little or as much
+ text at a time as desired; ``p.feed(a); p.feed(b)`` has the same effect as
+ ``p.feed(a+b)``. When the data contains complete HTML markup constructs, these
+ are processed immediately; incomplete constructs are saved in a buffer. To
+ force processing of all unprocessed data, call the :meth:`close` method.
+
+ For example, to parse the entire contents of a file, use::
+
+ parser.feed(open('myfile.html').read())
+ parser.close()
+
+* The interface to define semantics for HTML tags is very simple: derive a class
+ and define methods called :meth:`start_tag`, :meth:`end_tag`, or :meth:`do_tag`.
+ The parser will call these at appropriate moments: :meth:`start_tag` or
+ :meth:`do_tag` is called when an opening tag of the form ``<tag ...>`` is
+ encountered; :meth:`end_tag` is called when a closing tag of the form ``<tag>``
+ is encountered. If an opening tag requires a corresponding closing tag, like
+ ``<H1>`` ... ``</H1>``, the class should define the :meth:`start_tag` method; if
+ a tag requires no closing tag, like ``<P>``, the class should define the
+ :meth:`do_tag` method.
+
+The module defines a parser class and an exception:
+
+
+.. class:: HTMLParser(formatter)
+
+ This is the basic HTML parser class. It supports all entity names required by
+ the XHTML 1.0 Recommendation (http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1). It also defines
+ handlers for all HTML 2.0 and many HTML 3.0 and 3.2 elements.
+
+
+.. exception:: HTMLParseError
+
+ Exception raised by the :class:`HTMLParser` class when it encounters an error
+ while parsing.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ Module :mod:`formatter`
+ Interface definition for transforming an abstract flow of formatting events into
+ specific output events on writer objects.
+

+ is designed to work with XHTML, and does not implement some of the SGML syntax
+ not used in "HTML as deployed" and which isn't legal for XHTML.

+
+HTMLParser Objects
+------------------
+
+In addition to tag methods, the :class:`HTMLParser` class provides some
+additional methods and instance variables for use within tag methods.
+
+
+.. attribute:: HTMLParser.formatter
+
+ This is the formatter instance associated with the parser.
+
+
+.. attribute:: HTMLParser.nofill
+
+ Boolean flag which should be true when whitespace should not be collapsed, or
+ false when it should be. In general, this should only be true when character
+ data is to be treated as "preformatted" text, as within a ``<PRE>`` element.
+ The default value is false. This affects the operation of :meth:`handle_data`
+ and :meth:`save_end`.
+
+
+.. method:: HTMLParser.anchor_bgn(href, name, type)
+
+ This method is called at the start of an anchor region. The arguments
+ correspond to the attributes of the ``<A>`` tag with the same names. The
+ default implementation maintains a list of hyperlinks (defined by the ``HREF``
+ attribute for ``<A>`` tags) within the document. The list of hyperlinks is
+ available as the data attribute :attr:`anchorlist`.
+
+
+.. method:: HTMLParser.anchor_end()
+
+ This method is called at the end of an anchor region. The default
+ implementation adds a textual footnote marker using an index into the list of
+ hyperlinks created by :meth:`anchor_bgn`.
+
+
+.. method:: HTMLParser.handle_image(source, alt[, ismap[, align[, width[, height]]]])
+
+ This method is called to handle images. The default implementation simply
+ passes the *alt* value to the :meth:`handle_data` method.
+
+
+.. method:: HTMLParser.save_bgn()
+
+ Begins saving character data in a buffer instead of sending it to the formatter
+ object. Retrieve the stored data via :meth:`save_end`. Use of the
+ :meth:`save_bgn` / :meth:`save_end` pair may not be nested.
+
+
+.. method:: HTMLParser.save_end()
+
+ Ends buffering character data and returns all data saved since the preceding
+ call to :meth:`save_bgn`. If the :attr:`nofill` flag is false, whitespace is
+ collapsed to single spaces. A call to this method without a preceding call to
+ :meth:`save_bgn` will raise a :exc:`TypeError` exception.

+:mod:`HTMLParser` --- Simple HTML and XHTML parser
+==================================================
+
+.. module:: HTMLParser
+ :synopsis: A simple parser that can handle HTML and XHTML.
+
+.. note::
+
+ The :mod:`HTMLParser` module has been renamed to :mod:`html.parser` in Python
+ 3. The :term:`2to3` tool will automatically adapt imports when converting
+ your sources to Python 3.
+
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+.. index::
+ single: HTML
+ single: XHTML
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/HTMLParser.py`
+
+--------------
+
+This module defines a class :class:`.HTMLParser` which serves as the basis for
+parsing text files formatted in HTML (HyperText Mark-up Language) and XHTML.
+Unlike the parser in :mod:`htmllib`, this parser is not based on the SGML parser
+in :mod:`sgmllib`.
+
+
+.. class:: HTMLParser()
+
+ An :class:`.HTMLParser` instance is fed HTML data and calls handler methods
+ when start tags, end tags, text, comments, and other markup elements are
+ encountered. The user should subclass :class:`.HTMLParser` and override its
+ methods to implement the desired behavior.
+
+ The :class:`.HTMLParser` class is instantiated without arguments.
+
+ Unlike the parser in :mod:`htmllib`, this parser does not check that end tags
+ match start tags or call the end-tag handler for elements which are closed
+ implicitly by closing an outer element.
+
+An exception is defined as well:
+
+.. exception:: HTMLParseError
+
+ :class:`.HTMLParser` is able to handle broken markup, but in some cases it
+ might raise this exception when it encounters an error while parsing.
+ This exception provides three attributes: :attr:`msg` is a brief
+ message explaining the error, :attr:`lineno` is the number of the line on
+ which the broken construct was detected, and :attr:`offset` is the number of
+ characters into the line at which the construct starts.
+
+
+Example HTML Parser Application
+-------------------------------
+
+As a basic example, below is a simple HTML parser that uses the
+:class:`.HTMLParser` class to print out start tags, end tags and data
+as they are encountered::
+
+ from HTMLParser import HTMLParser
+
+ # create a subclass and override the handler methods
+ class MyHTMLParser(HTMLParser):
+ def handle_starttag(self, tag, attrs):
+ print "Encountered a start tag:", tag
+ def handle_endtag(self, tag):
+ print "Encountered an end tag :", tag
+ def handle_data(self, data):
+ print "Encountered some data :", data
+
+ # instantiate the parser and fed it some HTML
+ parser = MyHTMLParser()
+ parser.feed('<html><head><title>Test</title></head>'
+ '<body><h1>Parse me!</h1></body></html>')
+
+The output will then be::
+
+ Encountered a start tag: html
+ Encountered a start tag: head
+ Encountered a start tag: title
+ Encountered some data : Test
+ Encountered an end tag : title
+ Encountered an end tag : head
+ Encountered a start tag: body
+ Encountered a start tag: h1
+ Encountered some data : Parse me!
+ Encountered an end tag : h1
+ Encountered an end tag : body
+ Encountered an end tag : html
+
+
+:class:`.HTMLParser` Methods
+----------------------------
+
+:class:`.HTMLParser` instances have the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: HTMLParser.feed(data)
+
+ Feed some text to the parser. It is processed insofar as it consists of
+ complete elements; incomplete data is buffered until more data is fed or
+ :meth:`close` is called. *data* can be either :class:`unicode` or
+ :class:`str`, but passing :class:`unicode` is advised.
+
+
+.. method:: HTMLParser.close()
+
+ Force processing of all buffered data as if it were followed by an end-of-file
+ mark. This method may be redefined by a derived class to define additional
+ processing at the end of the input, but the redefined version should always call
+ the :class:`.HTMLParser` base class method :meth:`close`.
+
+
+.. method:: HTMLParser.reset()
+
+ Reset the instance. Loses all unprocessed data. This is called implicitly at
+ instantiation time.
+
+
+.. method:: HTMLParser.getpos()
+
+ Return current line number and offset.
+
+
+.. method:: HTMLParser.get_starttag_text()
+
+ Return the text of the most recently opened start tag. This should not normally
+ be needed for structured processing, but may be useful in dealing with HTML "as
+ deployed" or for re-generating input with minimal changes (whitespace between
+ attributes can be preserved, etc.).
+
+
+The following methods are called when data or markup elements are encountered
+and they are meant to be overridden in a subclass. The base class
+implementations do nothing (except for :meth:`~HTMLParser.handle_startendtag`):
+
+
+.. method:: HTMLParser.handle_starttag(tag, attrs)
+
+ This method is called to handle the start of a tag (e.g. ``<div id="main">``).
+
+ The *tag* argument is the name of the tag converted to lower case. The *attrs*
+ argument is a list of ``(name, value)`` pairs containing the attributes found
+ inside the tag's ``<>`` brackets. The *name* will be translated to lower case,
+ and quotes in the *value* have been removed, and character and entity references
+ have been replaced.
+
+ For instance, for the tag ``<A HREF="http://www.cwi.nl/">``, this method
+ would be called as ``handle_starttag('a', [('href', 'http://www.cwi.nl/')])``.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ All entity references from :mod:`htmlentitydefs` are now replaced in the
+ attribute values.
+
+
+.. method:: HTMLParser.handle_endtag(tag)
+
+ This method is called to handle the end tag of an element (e.g. ``</div>``).
+
+ The *tag* argument is the name of the tag converted to lower case.
+
+
+.. method:: HTMLParser.handle_startendtag(tag, attrs)
+
+ Similar to :meth:`handle_starttag`, but called when the parser encounters an
+ XHTML-style empty tag (``<img ... />``). This method may be overridden by
+ subclasses which require this particular lexical information; the default
+ implementation simply calls :meth:`handle_starttag` and :meth:`handle_endtag`.
+
+
+.. method:: HTMLParser.handle_data(data)
+
+ This method is called to process arbitrary data (e.g. text nodes and the
+ content of ``<script>...</script>`` and ``<style>...</style>``).
+
+
+.. method:: HTMLParser.handle_entityref(name)
+
+ This method is called to process a named character reference of the form
+ ``&name;`` (e.g. ``>``), where *name* is a general entity reference
+ (e.g. ``'gt'``).
+
+
+.. method:: HTMLParser.handle_charref(name)
+
+ This method is called to process decimal and hexadecimal numeric character
+ references of the form ``&#NNN;`` and ``&#xNNN;``. For example, the decimal
+ equivalent for ``>`` is ``>``, whereas the hexadecimal is ``>``;
+ in this case the method will receive ``'62'`` or ``'x3E'``.
+
+
+.. method:: HTMLParser.handle_comment(data)
+
+ This method is called when a comment is encountered (e.g. ``<!--comment-->``).
+
+ For example, the comment ``<!-- comment -->`` will cause this method to be
+ called with the argument ``' comment '``.
+
+ The content of Internet Explorer conditional comments (condcoms) will also be
+ sent to this method, so, for ``<!--[if IE 9]>IE9-specific content<![endif]-->``,
+ this method will receive ``'[if IE 9]>IE-specific content<![endif]'``.
+
+
+.. method:: HTMLParser.handle_decl(decl)
+
+ This method is called to handle an HTML doctype declaration (e.g.
+ ``<!DOCTYPE html>``).
+
+ The *decl* parameter will be the entire contents of the declaration inside
+ the ``<!...>`` markup (e.g. ``'DOCTYPE html'``).
+
+
+.. method:: HTMLParser.handle_pi(data)
+
+ This method is called when a processing instruction is encountered. The *data*
+ parameter will contain the entire processing instruction. For example, for the
+ processing instruction ``<?proc color='red'>``, this method would be called as
+ ``handle_pi("proc color='red'")``.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ The :class:`.HTMLParser` class uses the SGML syntactic rules for processing
+ instructions. An XHTML processing instruction using the trailing ``'?'`` will
+ cause the ``'?'`` to be included in *data*.
+
+
+.. method:: HTMLParser.unknown_decl(data)
+
+ This method is called when an unrecognized declaration is read by the parser.
+
+ The *data* parameter will be the entire contents of the declaration inside
+ the ``<![...]>`` markup. It is sometimes useful to be overridden by a
+ derived class.
+
+
+.. _htmlparser-examples:
+
+Examples
+--------
+
+The following class implements a parser that will be used to illustrate more
+examples::
+
+ from HTMLParser import HTMLParser
+ from htmlentitydefs import name2codepoint
+
+ class MyHTMLParser(HTMLParser):
+ def handle_starttag(self, tag, attrs):
+ print "Start tag:", tag
+ for attr in attrs:
+ print " attr:", attr
+ def handle_endtag(self, tag):
+ print "End tag :", tag
+ def handle_data(self, data):
+ print "Data :", data
+ def handle_comment(self, data):
+ print "Comment :", data
+ def handle_entityref(self, name):
+ c = unichr(name2codepoint[name])
+ print "Named ent:", c
+ def handle_charref(self, name):
+ if name.startswith('x'):
+ c = unichr(int(name[1:], 16))
+ else:
+ c = unichr(int(name))
+ print "Num ent :", c
+ def handle_decl(self, data):
+ print "Decl :", data
+
+ parser = MyHTMLParser()
+
+Parsing a doctype::
+
+ >>> parser.feed('<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" '
+ ... '"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">')
+ Decl : DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"
+
+Parsing an element with a few attributes and a title::
+
+ >>> parser.feed('<img src="python-logo.png" alt="The Python logo">')
+ Start tag: img
+ attr: ('src', 'python-logo.png')
+ attr: ('alt', 'The Python logo')
+ >>>
+ >>> parser.feed('<h1>Python</h1>')
+ Start tag: h1
+ Data : Python
+ End tag : h1
+
+The content of ``script`` and ``style`` elements is returned as is, without
+further parsing::
+
+ >>> parser.feed('<style type="text/css">#python { color: green }</style>')
+ Start tag: style
+ attr: ('type', 'text/css')
+ Data : #python { color: green }
+ End tag : style
+ >>>
+ >>> parser.feed('<script type="text/javascript">'
+ ... 'alert("<strong>hello!</strong>");</script>')
+ Start tag: script
+ attr: ('type', 'text/javascript')
+ Data : alert("<strong>hello!</strong>");
+ End tag : script
+
+Parsing comments::
+
+ >>> parser.feed('<!-- a comment -->'
+ ... '<!--[if IE 9]>IE-specific content<![endif]-->')
+ Comment : a comment
+ Comment : [if IE 9]>IE-specific content<![endif]
+
+Parsing named and numeric character references and converting them to the
+correct char (note: these 3 references are all equivalent to ``'>'``)::
+
+ >>> parser.feed('>>>')
+ Named ent: >
+ Num ent : >
+ Num ent : >
+
+Feeding incomplete chunks to :meth:`~HTMLParser.feed` works, but
+:meth:`~HTMLParser.handle_data` might be called more than once::
+
+ >>> for chunk in ['<sp', 'an>buff', 'ered ', 'text</s', 'pan>']:
+ ... parser.feed(chunk)
+ ...
+ Start tag: span
+ Data : buff
+ Data : ered
+ Data : text
+ End tag : span
+
+Parsing invalid HTML (e.g. unquoted attributes) also works::
+
+ >>> parser.feed('<p><a class=link href=#main>tag soup</p ></a>')
+ Start tag: p
+ Start tag: a
+ attr: ('class', 'link')
+ attr: ('href', '#main')
+ Data : tag soup
+ End tag : p
+ End tag : a

+:mod:`httplib` --- HTTP protocol client
+=======================================
+
+.. module:: httplib
+ :synopsis: HTTP and HTTPS protocol client (requires sockets).
+
+.. note::
+ The :mod:`httplib` module has been renamed to :mod:`http.client` in Python
+ 3. The :term:`2to3` tool will automatically adapt imports when converting
+ your sources to Python 3.
+
+
+.. index::
+ pair: HTTP; protocol
+ single: HTTP; httplib (standard module)
+
+.. index:: module: urllib
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/httplib.py`
+
+--------------
+
+This module defines classes which implement the client side of the HTTP and
+HTTPS protocols. It is normally not used directly --- the module :mod:`urllib`
+uses it to handle URLs that use HTTP and HTTPS.
+
+.. note::
+
+ HTTPS support is only available if the :mod:`socket` module was compiled with
+ SSL support.
+
+.. note::
+
+ The public interface for this module changed substantially in Python 2.0. The
+ :class:`HTTP` class is retained only for backward compatibility with 1.5.2. It
+ should not be used in new code. Refer to the online docstrings for usage.
+
+The module provides the following classes:
+
+
+.. class:: HTTPConnection(host[, port[, strict[, timeout[, source_address]]]])
+
+ An :class:`HTTPConnection` instance represents one transaction with an HTTP
+ server. It should be instantiated passing it a host and optional port
+ number. If no port number is passed, the port is extracted from the host
+ string if it has the form ``host:port``, else the default HTTP port (80) is
+ used. When True, the optional parameter *strict* (which defaults to a false
+ value) causes ``BadStatusLine`` to
+ be raised if the status line can't be parsed as a valid HTTP/1.0 or 1.1
+ status line. If the optional *timeout* parameter is given, blocking
+ operations (like connection attempts) will timeout after that many seconds
+ (if it is not given, the global default timeout setting is used).
+ The optional *source_address* parameter may be a tuple of a (host, port)
+ to use as the source address the HTTP connection is made from.
+
+ For example, the following calls all create instances that connect to the server
+ at the same host and port::
+
+ >>> h1 = httplib.HTTPConnection('www.cwi.nl')
+ >>> h2 = httplib.HTTPConnection('www.cwi.nl:80')
+ >>> h3 = httplib.HTTPConnection('www.cwi.nl', 80)
+ >>> h3 = httplib.HTTPConnection('www.cwi.nl', 80, timeout=10)
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ *timeout* was added.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ *source_address* was added.
+
+
+.. class:: HTTPSConnection(host[, port[, key_file[, cert_file[, strict[, timeout[, source_address]]]]]])
+
+ A subclass of :class:`HTTPConnection` that uses SSL for communication with
+ secure servers. Default port is ``443``. *key_file* is the name of a PEM
+ formatted file that contains your private key. *cert_file* is a PEM formatted
+ certificate chain file.
+
+ .. warning::
+ This does not do any verification of the server's certificate.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ *timeout* was added.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ *source_address* was added.
+
+
+.. class:: HTTPResponse(sock, debuglevel=0, strict=0)
+
+ Class whose instances are returned upon successful connection. Not instantiated
+ directly by user.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+.. class:: HTTPMessage
+
+ An :class:`HTTPMessage` instance is used to hold the headers from an HTTP
+ response. It is implemented using the :class:`mimetools.Message` class and
+ provides utility functions to deal with HTTP Headers. It is not directly
+ instantiated by the users.
+
+
+The following exceptions are raised as appropriate:
+
+
+.. exception:: HTTPException
+
+ The base class of the other exceptions in this module. It is a subclass of
+ :exc:`Exception`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+
+.. exception:: NotConnected
+
+ A subclass of :exc:`HTTPException`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+
+.. exception:: InvalidURL
+
+ A subclass of :exc:`HTTPException`, raised if a port is given and is either
+ non-numeric or empty.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. exception:: UnknownProtocol
+
+ A subclass of :exc:`HTTPException`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+
+.. exception:: UnknownTransferEncoding
+
+ A subclass of :exc:`HTTPException`.
+

+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+
+.. exception:: IncompleteRead
+
+ A subclass of :exc:`HTTPException`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+
+.. exception:: ImproperConnectionState
+
+ A subclass of :exc:`HTTPException`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+
+.. exception:: CannotSendRequest
+
+ A subclass of :exc:`ImproperConnectionState`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+
+.. exception:: CannotSendHeader
+
+ A subclass of :exc:`ImproperConnectionState`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+
+.. exception:: ResponseNotReady
+
+ A subclass of :exc:`ImproperConnectionState`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+
+.. exception:: BadStatusLine
+
+ A subclass of :exc:`HTTPException`. Raised if a server responds with a HTTP
+ status code that we don't understand.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+The constants defined in this module are:
+
+
+.. data:: HTTP_PORT
+
+ The default port for the HTTP protocol (always ``80``).
+
+
+.. data:: HTTPS_PORT
+
+ The default port for the HTTPS protocol (always ``443``).
+
+and also the following constants for integer status codes:

+
+.. data:: responses
+
+ This dictionary maps the HTTP 1.1 status codes to the W3C names.
+
+ Example: ``httplib.responses[httplib.NOT_FOUND]`` is ``'Not Found'``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. _httpconnection-objects:
+
+HTTPConnection Objects
+----------------------
+
+:class:`HTTPConnection` instances have the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: HTTPConnection.request(method, url[, body[, headers]])
+
+ This will send a request to the server using the HTTP request method *method*
+ and the selector *url*. If the *body* argument is present, it should be a
+ string of data to send after the headers are finished. Alternatively, it may
+ be an open file object, in which case the contents of the file is sent; this
+ file object should support ``fileno()`` and ``read()`` methods. The header
+ Content-Length is automatically set to the correct value. The *headers*
+ argument should be a mapping of extra HTTP headers to send with the request.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ *body* can be a file object.
+
+
+.. method:: HTTPConnection.getresponse()
+
+ Should be called after a request is sent to get the response from the server.
+ Returns an :class:`HTTPResponse` instance.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Note that you must have read the whole response before you can send a new
+ request to the server.
+
+
+.. method:: HTTPConnection.set_debuglevel(level)
+
+ Set the debugging level (the amount of debugging output printed). The default
+ debug level is ``0``, meaning no debugging output is printed.
+
+
+.. method:: HTTPConnection.set_tunnel(host,port=None, headers=None)
+
+ Set the host and the port for HTTP Connect Tunnelling. Normally used when
+ it is required to do HTTPS Conection through a proxy server.
+
+ The headers argument should be a mapping of extra HTTP headers to send
+ with the CONNECT request.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+.. method:: HTTPConnection.connect()
+
+ Connect to the server specified when the object was created.
+
+
+.. method:: HTTPConnection.close()
+
+ Close the connection to the server.
+
+As an alternative to using the :meth:`request` method described above, you can
+also send your request step by step, by using the four functions below.
+
+
+.. method:: HTTPConnection.putrequest(request, selector[, skip_host[, skip_accept_encoding]])
+
+ This should be the first call after the connection to the server has been made.
+ It sends a line to the server consisting of the *request* string, the *selector*
+ string, and the HTTP version (``HTTP/1.1``). To disable automatic sending of
+ ``Host:`` or ``Accept-Encoding:`` headers (for example to accept additional
+ content encodings), specify *skip_host* or *skip_accept_encoding* with non-False
+ values.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ *skip_accept_encoding* argument added.
+
+
+.. method:: HTTPConnection.putheader(header, argument[, ...])
+
+ Send an :rfc:`822`\ -style header to the server. It sends a line to the server
+ consisting of the header, a colon and a space, and the first argument. If more
+ arguments are given, continuation lines are sent, each consisting of a tab and
+ an argument.
+
+
+.. method:: HTTPConnection.endheaders(message_body=None)
+
+ Send a blank line to the server, signalling the end of the headers. The
+ optional *message_body* argument can be used to pass a message body
+ associated with the request. The message body will be sent in the same
+ packet as the message headers if it is string, otherwise it is sent in a
+ separate packet.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ *message_body* was added.
+
+
+.. method:: HTTPConnection.send(data)
+
+ Send data to the server. This should be used directly only after the
+ :meth:`endheaders` method has been called and before :meth:`getresponse` is
+ called.
+
+
+.. _httpresponse-objects:
+
+HTTPResponse Objects
+--------------------
+
+:class:`HTTPResponse` instances have the following methods and attributes:
+
+
+.. method:: HTTPResponse.read([amt])
+
+ Reads and returns the response body, or up to the next *amt* bytes.
+
+
+.. method:: HTTPResponse.getheader(name[, default])
+
+ Get the contents of the header *name*, or *default* if there is no matching
+ header.
+
+
+.. method:: HTTPResponse.getheaders()
+
+ Return a list of (header, value) tuples.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+.. method:: HTTPResponse.fileno()
+
+ Returns the ``fileno`` of the underlying socket.
+
+.. attribute:: HTTPResponse.msg
+
+ A :class:`mimetools.Message` instance containing the response headers.
+
+
+.. attribute:: HTTPResponse.version
+
+ HTTP protocol version used by server. 10 for HTTP/1.0, 11 for HTTP/1.1.
+
+
+.. attribute:: HTTPResponse.status
+
+ Status code returned by server.
+
+
+.. attribute:: HTTPResponse.reason
+
+ Reason phrase returned by server.
+
+
+.. _httplib-examples:
+
+Examples
+--------
+
+Here is an example session that uses the ``GET`` method::
+
+ >>> import httplib
+ >>> conn = httplib.HTTPConnection("www.python.org")
+ >>> conn.request("GET", "/index.html")
+ >>> r1 = conn.getresponse()
+ >>> print r1.status, r1.reason
+ 200 OK
+ >>> data1 = r1.read()
+ >>> conn.request("GET", "/parrot.spam")
+ >>> r2 = conn.getresponse()
+ >>> print r2.status, r2.reason
+ 404 Not Found
+ >>> data2 = r2.read()
+ >>> conn.close()
+
+Here is an example session that uses the ``HEAD`` method. Note that the
+``HEAD`` method never returns any data. ::
+
+ >>> import httplib
+ >>> conn = httplib.HTTPConnection("www.python.org")
+ >>> conn.request("HEAD","/index.html")
+ >>> res = conn.getresponse()
+ >>> print res.status, res.reason
+ 200 OK
+ >>> data = res.read()
+ >>> print len(data)
+ 0
+ >>> data == ''
+ True
+
+Here is an example session that shows how to ``POST`` requests::
+
+ >>> import httplib, urllib
+ >>> params = urllib.urlencode({'@number': 12524, '@type': 'issue', '@action': 'show'})
+ >>> headers = {"Content-type": "application/x-www-form-urlencoded",
+ ... "Accept": "text/plain"}
+ >>> conn = httplib.HTTPConnection("bugs.python.org")
+ >>> conn.request("POST", "", params, headers)
+ >>> response = conn.getresponse()
+ >>> print response.status, response.reason
+ 302 Found
+ >>> data = response.read()
+ >>> data
+ 'Redirecting to <a href="http://bugs.python.org/issue12524">http://bugs.python.org/issue12524</a>'
+ >>> conn.close()
+
+Client side ``HTTP PUT`` requests are very similar to ``POST`` requests. The
+difference lies only the server side where HTTP server will allow resources to
+be created via ``PUT`` request. Here is an example session that shows how to do
+``PUT`` request using httplib::
+
+ >>> # This creates an HTTP message
+ >>> # with the content of BODY as the enclosed representation
+ >>> # for the resource http://localhost:8080/foobar
+ ...
+ >>> import httplib
+ >>> BODY = "***filecontents***"
+ >>> conn = httplib.HTTPConnection("localhost", 8080)
+ >>> conn.request("PUT", "/file", BODY)
+ >>> response = conn.getresponse()
+ >>> print resp.status, response.reason
+ 200, OK

+:mod:`ic` --- Access to the Mac OS X Internet Config
+====================================================
+
+.. module:: ic
+ :platform: Mac
+ :synopsis: Access to the Mac OS X Internet Config.
+ :deprecated:
+
+
+This module provides access to various internet-related preferences set through
+:program:`System Preferences` or the :program:`Finder`.
+
+.. note::
+
+ This module has been removed in Python 3.x.
+
+
+.. index:: module: icglue
+
+There is a low-level companion module :mod:`icglue` which provides the basic
+Internet Config access functionality. This low-level module is not documented,
+but the docstrings of the routines document the parameters and the routine names
+are the same as for the Pascal or C API to Internet Config, so the standard IC
+programmers' documentation can be used if this module is needed.
+
+The :mod:`ic` module defines the :exc:`error` exception and symbolic names for
+all error codes Internet Config can produce; see the source for details.
+
+
+.. exception:: error
+
+ Exception raised on errors in the :mod:`ic` module.
+
+The :mod:`ic` module defines the following class and function:
+
+
+.. class:: IC([signature[, ic]])
+
+ Create an Internet Config object. The signature is a 4-character creator code of
+ the current application (default ``'Pyth'``) which may influence some of ICs
+ settings. The optional *ic* argument is a low-level ``icglue.icinstance``
+ created beforehand, this may be useful if you want to get preferences from a
+ different config file, etc.
+
+
+.. function:: launchurl(url[, hint])
+ parseurl(data[, start[, end[, hint]]])
+ mapfile(file)
+ maptypecreator(type, creator[, filename])
+ settypecreator(file)
+
+ These functions are "shortcuts" to the methods of the same name, described
+ below.
+
+
+IC Objects
+----------
+
+:class:`IC` objects have a mapping interface, hence to obtain the mail address
+you simply get ``ic['MailAddress']``. Assignment also works, and changes the
+option in the configuration file.
+
+The module knows about various datatypes, and converts the internal IC
+representation to a "logical" Python data structure. Running the :mod:`ic`
+module standalone will run a test program that lists all keys and values in your
+IC database, this will have to serve as documentation.
+
+If the module does not know how to represent the data it returns an instance of
+the ``ICOpaqueData`` type, with the raw data in its :attr:`data` attribute.
+Objects of this type are also acceptable values for assignment.
+
+Besides the dictionary interface, :class:`IC` objects have the following
+methods:
+
+
+.. method:: IC.launchurl(url[, hint])
+
+ Parse the given URL, launch the correct application and pass it the URL. The
+ optional *hint* can be a scheme name such as ``'mailto:'``, in which case
+ incomplete URLs are completed with this scheme. If *hint* is not provided,
+ incomplete URLs are invalid.
+
+
+.. method:: IC.parseurl(data[, start[, end[, hint]]])
+
+ Find an URL somewhere in *data* and return start position, end position and the
+ URL. The optional *start* and *end* can be used to limit the search, so for
+ instance if a user clicks in a long text field you can pass the whole text field
+ and the click-position in *start* and this routine will return the whole URL in
+ which the user clicked. As above, *hint* is an optional scheme used to complete
+ incomplete URLs.
+
+
+.. method:: IC.mapfile(file)
+
+ Return the mapping entry for the given *file*, which can be passed as either a
+ filename or an :func:`FSSpec` result, and which need not exist.
+
+ The mapping entry is returned as a tuple ``(version, type, creator, postcreator,
+ flags, extension, appname, postappname, mimetype, entryname)``, where *version*
+ is the entry version number, *type* is the 4-character filetype, *creator* is
+ the 4-character creator type, *postcreator* is the 4-character creator code of
+ an optional application to post-process the file after downloading, *flags* are
+ various bits specifying whether to transfer in binary or ascii and such,
+ *extension* is the filename extension for this file type, *appname* is the
+ printable name of the application to which this file belongs, *postappname* is
+ the name of the postprocessing application, *mimetype* is the MIME type of this
+ file and *entryname* is the name of this entry.
+
+
+.. method:: IC.maptypecreator(type, creator[, filename])
+
+ Return the mapping entry for files with given 4-character *type* and *creator*
+ codes. The optional *filename* may be specified to further help finding the
+ correct entry (if the creator code is ``'????'``, for instance).
+
+ The mapping entry is returned in the same format as for *mapfile*.
+
+
+.. method:: IC.settypecreator(file)
+
+ Given an existing *file*, specified either as a filename or as an :func:`FSSpec`
+ result, set its creator and type correctly based on its extension. The finder
+ is told about the change, so the finder icon will be updated quickly.

+
+Syntax colors
+-------------
+
+The coloring is applied in a background "thread," so you may occasionally see
+uncolorized text. To change the color scheme, edit the ``[Colors]`` section in
+:file:`config.txt`.
+
+Python syntax colors:
+ Keywords
+ orange
+
+ Strings
+ green
+
+ Comments
+ red
+

+
+ stderr
+ dark green
+
+ stdin
+ black
+
+
+Startup
+-------
+
+Upon startup with the ``-s`` option, IDLE will execute the file referenced by
+the environment variables :envvar:`IDLESTARTUP` or :envvar:`PYTHONSTARTUP`.
+Idle first checks for ``IDLESTARTUP``; if ``IDLESTARTUP`` is present the file
+referenced is run. If ``IDLESTARTUP`` is not present, Idle checks for
+``PYTHONSTARTUP``. Files referenced by these environment variables are
+convenient places to store functions that are used frequently from the Idle
+shell, or for executing import statements to import common modules.
+
+In addition, ``Tk`` also loads a startup file if it is present. Note that the
+Tk file is loaded unconditionally. This additional file is ``.Idle.py`` and is
+looked for in the user's home directory. Statements in this file will be
+executed in the Tk namespace, so this file is not useful for importing functions
+to be used from Idle's Python shell.
+
+
+Command line usage
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+::
+
+ idle.py [-c command] [-d] [-e] [-s] [-t title] [arg] ...
+
+ -c command run this command
+ -d enable debugger
+ -e edit mode; arguments are files to be edited
+ -s run $IDLESTARTUP or $PYTHONSTARTUP first
+ -t title set title of shell window
+
+If there are arguments:
+
+#. If ``-e`` is used, arguments are files opened for editing and
+ ``sys.argv`` reflects the arguments passed to IDLE itself.
+
+#. Otherwise, if ``-c`` is used, all arguments are placed in
+ ``sys.argv[1:...]``, with ``sys.argv[0]`` set to ``'-c'``.
+
+#. Otherwise, if neither ``-e`` nor ``-c`` is used, the first
+ argument is a script which is executed with the remaining arguments in
+ ``sys.argv[1:...]`` and ``sys.argv[0]`` set to the script name. If the script
+ name is '-', no script is executed but an interactive Python session is started;
+ the arguments are still available in ``sys.argv``.

+ :synopsis: Manipulate raw image data.
+ :deprecated:
+
+.. deprecated:: 2.6
+ The :mod:`imageop` module has been removed in Python 3.
+
+The :mod:`imageop` module contains some useful operations on images. It operates
+on images consisting of 8 or 32 bit pixels stored in Python strings. This is
+the same format as used by :func:`gl.lrectwrite` and the :mod:`imgfile` module.
+
+The module defines the following variables and functions:
+
+
+.. exception:: error
+
+ This exception is raised on all errors, such as unknown number of bits per
+ pixel, etc.
+
+
+.. function:: crop(image, psize, width, height, x0, y0, x1, y1)
+
+ Return the selected part of *image*, which should be *width* by *height* in size
+ and consist of pixels of *psize* bytes. *x0*, *y0*, *x1* and *y1* are like the
+ :func:`gl.lrectread` parameters, i.e. the boundary is included in the new image.
+ The new boundaries need not be inside the picture. Pixels that fall outside the
+ old image will have their value set to zero. If *x0* is bigger than *x1* the
+ new image is mirrored. The same holds for the y coordinates.
+
+
+.. function:: scale(image, psize, width, height, newwidth, newheight)
+
+ Return *image* scaled to size *newwidth* by *newheight*. No interpolation is
+ done, scaling is done by simple-minded pixel duplication or removal. Therefore,
+ computer-generated images or dithered images will not look nice after scaling.
+
+
+.. function:: tovideo(image, psize, width, height)
+
+ Run a vertical low-pass filter over an image. It does so by computing each
+ destination pixel as the average of two vertically-aligned source pixels. The
+ main use of this routine is to forestall excessive flicker if the image is
+ displayed on a video device that uses interlacing, hence the name.
+
+
+.. function:: grey2mono(image, width, height, threshold)
+
+ Convert a 8-bit deep greyscale image to a 1-bit deep image by thresholding all
+ the pixels. The resulting image is tightly packed and is probably only useful
+ as an argument to :func:`mono2grey`.
+
+
+.. function:: dither2mono(image, width, height)
+
+ Convert an 8-bit greyscale image to a 1-bit monochrome image using a
+ (simple-minded) dithering algorithm.
+
+
+.. function:: mono2grey(image, width, height, p0, p1)
+
+ Convert a 1-bit monochrome image to an 8 bit greyscale or color image. All
+ pixels that are zero-valued on input get value *p0* on output and all one-value
+ input pixels get value *p1* on output. To convert a monochrome black-and-white
+ image to greyscale pass the values ``0`` and ``255`` respectively.
+
+
+.. function:: grey2grey4(image, width, height)
+
+ Convert an 8-bit greyscale image to a 4-bit greyscale image without dithering.
+
+
+.. function:: grey2grey2(image, width, height)
+
+ Convert an 8-bit greyscale image to a 2-bit greyscale image without dithering.
+
+
+.. function:: dither2grey2(image, width, height)
+
+ Convert an 8-bit greyscale image to a 2-bit greyscale image with dithering. As
+ for :func:`dither2mono`, the dithering algorithm is currently very simple.
+
+
+.. function:: grey42grey(image, width, height)
+
+ Convert a 4-bit greyscale image to an 8-bit greyscale image.
+
+
+.. function:: grey22grey(image, width, height)
+
+ Convert a 2-bit greyscale image to an 8-bit greyscale image.
+
+
+.. data:: backward_compatible
+
+ If set to 0, the functions in this module use a non-backward compatible way
+ of representing multi-byte pixels on little-endian systems. The SGI for
+ which this module was originally written is a big-endian system, so setting
+ this variable will have no effect. However, the code wasn't originally
+ intended to run on anything else, so it made assumptions about byte order
+ which are not universal. Setting this variable to 0 will cause the byte
+ order to be reversed on little-endian systems, so that it then is the same as
+ on big-endian systems.

+:mod:`imaplib` --- IMAP4 protocol client
+========================================
+
+.. module:: imaplib
+ :synopsis: IMAP4 protocol client (requires sockets).
+.. moduleauthor:: Piers Lauder <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Piers Lauder <[email protected]>
+.. revised by ESR, January 2000
+.. changes for IMAP4_SSL by Tino Lange <[email protected]>, March 2002
+.. changes for IMAP4_stream by Piers Lauder <[email protected]>,
+ November 2002
+
+
+.. index::
+ pair: IMAP4; protocol
+ pair: IMAP4_SSL; protocol
+ pair: IMAP4_stream; protocol
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/imaplib.py`
+
+--------------
+
+This module defines three classes, :class:`IMAP4`, :class:`IMAP4_SSL` and
+:class:`IMAP4_stream`, which encapsulate a connection to an IMAP4 server and
+implement a large subset of the IMAP4rev1 client protocol as defined in
+:rfc:`2060`. It is backward compatible with IMAP4 (:rfc:`1730`) servers, but
+note that the ``STATUS`` command is not supported in IMAP4.
+
+Three classes are provided by the :mod:`imaplib` module, :class:`IMAP4` is the
+base class:
+
+
+.. class:: IMAP4([host[, port]])
+
+ This class implements the actual IMAP4 protocol. The connection is created and
+ protocol version (IMAP4 or IMAP4rev1) is determined when the instance is
+ initialized. If *host* is not specified, ``''`` (the local host) is used. If
+ *port* is omitted, the standard IMAP4 port (143) is used.
+
+Three exceptions are defined as attributes of the :class:`IMAP4` class:
+
+
+.. exception:: IMAP4.error
+
+ Exception raised on any errors. The reason for the exception is passed to the
+ constructor as a string.
+
+
+.. exception:: IMAP4.abort
+
+ IMAP4 server errors cause this exception to be raised. This is a sub-class of
+ :exc:`IMAP4.error`. Note that closing the instance and instantiating a new one
+ will usually allow recovery from this exception.
+
+
+.. exception:: IMAP4.readonly
+
+ This exception is raised when a writable mailbox has its status changed by the
+ server. This is a sub-class of :exc:`IMAP4.error`. Some other client now has
+ write permission, and the mailbox will need to be re-opened to re-obtain write
+ permission.
+
+There's also a subclass for secure connections:
+
+
+.. class:: IMAP4_SSL([host[, port[, keyfile[, certfile]]]])
+
+ This is a subclass derived from :class:`IMAP4` that connects over an SSL
+ encrypted socket (to use this class you need a socket module that was compiled
+ with SSL support). If *host* is not specified, ``''`` (the local host) is used.
+ If *port* is omitted, the standard IMAP4-over-SSL port (993) is used. *keyfile*
+ and *certfile* are also optional - they can contain a PEM formatted private key
+ and certificate chain file for the SSL connection.
+
+The second subclass allows for connections created by a child process:
+
+
+.. class:: IMAP4_stream(command)
+
+ This is a subclass derived from :class:`IMAP4` that connects to the
+ ``stdin/stdout`` file descriptors created by passing *command* to
+ ``os.popen2()``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+The following utility functions are defined:
+
+
+.. function:: Internaldate2tuple(datestr)
+
+ Parse an IMAP4 ``INTERNALDATE`` string and return corresponding local
+ time. The return value is a :class:`time.struct_time` instance or
+ None if the string has wrong format.
+
+.. function:: Int2AP(num)
+
+ Converts an integer into a string representation using characters from the set
+ [``A`` .. ``P``].
+
+
+.. function:: ParseFlags(flagstr)
+
+ Converts an IMAP4 ``FLAGS`` response to a tuple of individual flags.
+
+
+.. function:: Time2Internaldate(date_time)
+
+ Convert *date_time* to an IMAP4 ``INTERNALDATE`` representation. The
+ return value is a string in the form: ``"DD-Mmm-YYYY HH:MM:SS
+ +HHMM"`` (including double-quotes). The *date_time* argument can be a
+ number (int or float) representing seconds since epoch (as returned
+ by :func:`time.time`), a 9-tuple representing local time (as returned by
+ :func:`time.localtime`), or a double-quoted string. In the last case, it
+ is assumed to already be in the correct format.
+
+Note that IMAP4 message numbers change as the mailbox changes; in particular,
+after an ``EXPUNGE`` command performs deletions the remaining messages are
+renumbered. So it is highly advisable to use UIDs instead, with the UID command.
+
+At the end of the module, there is a test section that contains a more extensive
+example of usage.
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ Documents describing the protocol, and sources and binaries for servers
+ implementing it, can all be found at the University of Washington's *IMAP
+ Information Center* (http://www.washington.edu/imap/).
+
+
+.. _imap4-objects:
+
+IMAP4 Objects
+-------------
+
+All IMAP4rev1 commands are represented by methods of the same name, either
+upper-case or lower-case.
+
+All arguments to commands are converted to strings, except for ``AUTHENTICATE``,
+and the last argument to ``APPEND`` which is passed as an IMAP4 literal. If
+necessary (the string contains IMAP4 protocol-sensitive characters and isn't
+enclosed with either parentheses or double quotes) each string is quoted.
+However, the *password* argument to the ``LOGIN`` command is always quoted. If
+you want to avoid having an argument string quoted (eg: the *flags* argument to
+``STORE``) then enclose the string in parentheses (eg: ``r'(\Deleted)'``).
+
+Each command returns a tuple: ``(type, [data, ...])`` where *type* is usually
+``'OK'`` or ``'NO'``, and *data* is either the text from the command response,
+or mandated results from the command. Each *data* is either a string, or a
+tuple. If a tuple, then the first part is the header of the response, and the
+second part contains the data (ie: 'literal' value).
+
+The *message_set* options to commands below is a string specifying one or more
+messages to be acted upon. It may be a simple message number (``'1'``), a range
+of message numbers (``'2:4'``), or a group of non-contiguous ranges separated by
+commas (``'1:3,6:9'``). A range can contain an asterisk to indicate an infinite
+upper bound (``'3:*'``).
+
+An :class:`IMAP4` instance has the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: IMAP4.append(mailbox, flags, date_time, message)
+
+ Append *message* to named mailbox.
+
+
+.. method:: IMAP4.authenticate(mechanism, authobject)
+
+ Authenticate command --- requires response processing.
+
+ *mechanism* specifies which authentication mechanism is to be used - it should
+ appear in the instance variable ``capabilities`` in the form ``AUTH=mechanism``.
+
+ *authobject* must be a callable object::
+
+ data = authobject(response)
+
+ It will be called to process server continuation responses. It should return
+ ``data`` that will be encoded and sent to server. It should return ``None`` if
+ the client abort response ``*`` should be sent instead.
+
+
+.. method:: IMAP4.check()
+
+ Checkpoint mailbox on server.
+
+
+.. method:: IMAP4.close()
+

+
+.. method:: IMAP4.copy(message_set, new_mailbox)
+
+ Copy *message_set* messages onto end of *new_mailbox*.
+
+
+.. method:: IMAP4.create(mailbox)

+
+.. method:: IMAP4.fetch(message_set, message_parts)
+
+ Fetch (parts of) messages. *message_parts* should be a string of message part
+ names enclosed within parentheses, eg: ``"(UID BODY[TEXT])"``. Returned data
+ are tuples of message part envelope and data.
+
+
+.. method:: IMAP4.getacl(mailbox)

+ the password. Will only work if the server ``CAPABILITY`` response includes the
+ phrase ``AUTH=CRAM-MD5``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. method:: IMAP4.logout()
+
+ Shutdown connection to server. Returns server ``BYE`` response.

+.. method:: IMAP4.search(charset, criterion[, ...])
+
+ Search mailbox for matching messages. *charset* may be ``None``, in which case
+ no ``CHARSET`` will be specified in the request to the server. The IMAP
+ protocol requires that at least one criterion be specified; an exception will be
+ raised when the server returns an error.
+
+ Example::
+
+ # M is a connected IMAP4 instance...
+ typ, msgnums = M.search(None, 'FROM', '"LDJ"')
+
+ # or:
+ typ, msgnums = M.search(None, '(FROM "LDJ")')
+
+
+.. method:: IMAP4.select([mailbox[, readonly]])
+
+ Select a mailbox. Returned data is the count of messages in *mailbox*

+ supported by the ``Cyrus`` server.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. method:: IMAP4.setquota(root, limits)
+
+ Set the ``quota`` *root*'s resource *limits*. This method is part of the IMAP4
+ QUOTA extension defined in rfc2087.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. method:: IMAP4.shutdown()
+
+ Close connection established in ``open``. This method is implicitly
+ called by :meth:`IMAP4.logout`. You may override this method.
+
+
+.. method:: IMAP4.socket()
+
+ Returns socket instance used to connect to server.
+
+
+.. method:: IMAP4.sort(sort_criteria, charset, search_criterion[, ...])
+
+ The ``sort`` command is a variant of ``search`` with sorting semantics for the
+ results. Returned data contains a space separated list of matching message
+ numbers.
+
+ Sort has two arguments before the *search_criterion* argument(s); a
+ parenthesized list of *sort_criteria*, and the searching *charset*. Note that
+ unlike ``search``, the searching *charset* argument is mandatory. There is also
+ a ``uid sort`` command which corresponds to ``sort`` the way that ``uid search``
+ corresponds to ``search``. The ``sort`` command first searches the mailbox for
+ messages that match the given searching criteria using the charset argument for
+ the interpretation of strings in the searching criteria. It then returns the
+ numbers of matching messages.
+
+ This is an ``IMAP4rev1`` extension command.
+
+
+.. method:: IMAP4.status(mailbox, names)
+
+ Request named status conditions for *mailbox*.
+
+
+.. method:: IMAP4.store(message_set, command, flag_list)
+
+ Alters flag dispositions for messages in mailbox. *command* is specified by
+ section 6.4.6 of :rfc:`2060` as being one of "FLAGS", "+FLAGS", or "-FLAGS",
+ optionally with a suffix of ".SILENT".
+
+ For example, to set the delete flag on all messages::
+
+ typ, data = M.search(None, 'ALL')
+ for num in data[0].split():
+ M.store(num, '+FLAGS', '\\Deleted')
+ M.expunge()
+
+
+.. method:: IMAP4.subscribe(mailbox)
+
+ Subscribe to new mailbox.
+
+
+.. method:: IMAP4.thread(threading_algorithm, charset, search_criterion[, ...])
+
+ The ``thread`` command is a variant of ``search`` with threading semantics for
+ the results. Returned data contains a space separated list of thread members.
+
+ Thread members consist of zero or more messages numbers, delimited by spaces,
+ indicating successive parent and child.
+
+ Thread has two arguments before the *search_criterion* argument(s); a
+ *threading_algorithm*, and the searching *charset*. Note that unlike
+ ``search``, the searching *charset* argument is mandatory. There is also a
+ ``uid thread`` command which corresponds to ``thread`` the way that ``uid
+ search`` corresponds to ``search``. The ``thread`` command first searches the
+ mailbox for messages that match the given searching criteria using the charset
+ argument for the interpretation of strings in the searching criteria. It then
+ returns the matching messages threaded according to the specified threading
+ algorithm.
+
+ This is an ``IMAP4rev1`` extension command.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+.. method:: IMAP4.uid(command, arg[, ...])
+
+ Execute command args with messages identified by UID, rather than message
+ number. Returns response appropriate to command. At least one argument must be
+ supplied; if none are provided, the server will return an error and an exception
+ will be raised.
+
+
+.. method:: IMAP4.unsubscribe(mailbox)
+
+ Unsubscribe from old mailbox.
+
+
+.. method:: IMAP4.xatom(name[, arg[, ...]])
+
+ Allow simple extension commands notified by server in ``CAPABILITY`` response.
+
+Instances of :class:`IMAP4_SSL` have just one additional method:
+
+
+.. method:: IMAP4_SSL.ssl()
+
+ Returns SSLObject instance used for the secure connection with the server.
+
+The following attributes are defined on instances of :class:`IMAP4`:
+
+
+.. attribute:: IMAP4.PROTOCOL_VERSION
+
+ The most recent supported protocol in the ``CAPABILITY`` response from the
+ server.
+
+
+.. attribute:: IMAP4.debug
+
+ Integer value to control debugging output. The initialize value is taken from
+ the module variable ``Debug``. Values greater than three trace each command.
+
+
+.. _imap4-example:
+
+IMAP4 Example
+-------------
+
+Here is a minimal example (without error checking) that opens a mailbox and
+retrieves and prints all messages::
+
+ import getpass, imaplib
+
+ M = imaplib.IMAP4()
+ M.login(getpass.getuser(), getpass.getpass())

+:mod:`imgfile` --- Support for SGI imglib files
+===============================================
+
+.. module:: imgfile
+ :platform: IRIX
+ :synopsis: Support for SGI imglib files.
+ :deprecated:
+
+.. deprecated:: 2.6
+ The :mod:`imgfile` module has been removed in Python 3.
+
+
+
+The :mod:`imgfile` module allows Python programs to access SGI imglib image
+files (also known as :file:`.rgb` files). The module is far from complete, but
+is provided anyway since the functionality that there is enough in some cases.
+Currently, colormap files are not supported.
+
+The module defines the following variables and functions:
+
+
+.. exception:: error
+
+ This exception is raised on all errors, such as unsupported file type, etc.
+
+
+.. function:: getsizes(file)
+
+ This function returns a tuple ``(x, y, z)`` where *x* and *y* are the size of
+ the image in pixels and *z* is the number of bytes per pixel. Only 3 byte RGB
+ pixels and 1 byte greyscale pixels are currently supported.
+
+
+.. function:: read(file)
+
+ This function reads and decodes the image on the specified file, and returns it
+ as a Python string. The string has either 1 byte greyscale pixels or 4 byte RGBA
+ pixels. The bottom left pixel is the first in the string. This format is
+ suitable to pass to :func:`gl.lrectwrite`, for instance.
+
+
+.. function:: readscaled(file, x, y, filter[, blur])
+
+ This function is identical to read but it returns an image that is scaled to the
+ given *x* and *y* sizes. If the *filter* and *blur* parameters are omitted
+ scaling is done by simply dropping or duplicating pixels, so the result will be
+ less than perfect, especially for computer-generated images.
+
+ Alternatively, you can specify a filter to use to smooth the image after
+ scaling. The filter forms supported are ``'impulse'``, ``'box'``,
+ ``'triangle'``, ``'quadratic'`` and ``'gaussian'``. If a filter is specified
+ *blur* is an optional parameter specifying the blurriness of the filter. It
+ defaults to ``1.0``.
+
+ :func:`readscaled` makes no attempt to keep the aspect ratio correct, so that is
+ the users' responsibility.
+
+
+.. function:: ttob(flag)
+
+ This function sets a global flag which defines whether the scan lines of the
+ image are read or written from bottom to top (flag is zero, compatible with SGI
+ GL) or from top to bottom(flag is one, compatible with X). The default is zero.
+
+
+.. function:: write(file, data, x, y, z)
+
+ This function writes the RGB or greyscale data in *data* to image file *file*.
+ *x* and *y* give the size of the image, *z* is 1 for 1 byte greyscale images or
+ 3 for RGB images (which are stored as 4 byte values of which only the lower
+ three bytes are used). These are the formats returned by :func:`gl.lrectread`.

+
+.. function:: what(filename[, h])
+
+ Tests the image data contained in the file named by *filename*, and returns a
+ string describing the image type. If optional *h* is provided, the *filename*
+ is ignored and *h* is assumed to contain the byte stream to test.
+
+The following image types are recognized, as listed below with the return value
+from :func:`what`:
+
++------------+-----------------------------------+
+| Value | Image format |
++============+===================================+
+| ``'rgb'`` | SGI ImgLib Files |
++------------+-----------------------------------+
+| ``'gif'`` | GIF 87a and 89a Files |
++------------+-----------------------------------+

+
+.. versionadded:: 2.5
+ Exif detection.
+
+You can extend the list of file types :mod:`imghdr` can recognize by appending
+to this variable:
+
+
+.. data:: tests
+
+ A list of functions performing the individual tests. Each function takes two
+ arguments: the byte-stream and an open file-like object. When :func:`what` is
+ called with a byte-stream, the file-like object will be ``None``.
+
+ The test function should return a string describing the image type if the test
+ succeeded, or ``None`` if it failed.
+
+Example::
+
+ >>> import imghdr
+ >>> imghdr.what('bass.gif')
+ 'gif'

+:mod:`imp` --- Access the :keyword:`import` internals
+=====================================================
+
+.. module:: imp
+ :synopsis: Access the implementation of the import statement.
+
+
+.. index:: statement: import
+
+This module provides an interface to the mechanisms used to implement the
+:keyword:`import` statement. It defines the following constants and functions:
+
+
+.. function:: get_magic()
+
+ .. index:: pair: file; byte-code
+
+ Return the magic string value used to recognize byte-compiled code files
+ (:file:`.pyc` files). (This value may be different for each Python version.)
+
+
+.. function:: get_suffixes()
+
+ Return a list of 3-element tuples, each describing a particular type of
+ module. Each triple has the form ``(suffix, mode, type)``, where *suffix* is
+ a string to be appended to the module name to form the filename to search
+ for, *mode* is the mode string to pass to the built-in :func:`open` function
+ to open the file (this can be ``'r'`` for text files or ``'rb'`` for binary
+ files), and *type* is the file type, which has one of the values
+ :const:`PY_SOURCE`, :const:`PY_COMPILED`, or :const:`C_EXTENSION`, described
+ below.
+
+
+.. function:: find_module(name[, path])
+
+ Try to find the module *name*. If *path* is omitted or ``None``, the list of
+ directory names given by ``sys.path`` is searched, but first a few special
+ places are searched: the function tries to find a built-in module with the
+ given name (:const:`C_BUILTIN`), then a frozen module (:const:`PY_FROZEN`),
+ and on some systems some other places are looked in as well (on Windows, it
+ looks in the registry which may point to a specific file).
+
+ Otherwise, *path* must be a list of directory names; each directory is
+ searched for files with any of the suffixes returned by :func:`get_suffixes`
+ above. Invalid names in the list are silently ignored (but all list items
+ must be strings).
+
+ If search is successful, the return value is a 3-element tuple ``(file,
+ pathname, description)``:
+
+ *file* is an open file object positioned at the beginning, *pathname* is the
+ pathname of the file found, and *description* is a 3-element tuple as
+ contained in the list returned by :func:`get_suffixes` describing the kind of
+ module found.
+
+ If the module does not live in a file, the returned *file* is ``None``,
+ *pathname* is the empty string, and the *description* tuple contains empty
+ strings for its suffix and mode; the module type is indicated as given in
+ parentheses above. If the search is unsuccessful, :exc:`ImportError` is
+ raised. Other exceptions indicate problems with the arguments or
+ environment.
+
+ If the module is a package, *file* is ``None``, *pathname* is the package
+ path and the last item in the *description* tuple is :const:`PKG_DIRECTORY`.
+
+ This function does not handle hierarchical module names (names containing
+ dots). In order to find *P.M*, that is, submodule *M* of package *P*, use
+ :func:`find_module` and :func:`load_module` to find and load package *P*, and
+ then use :func:`find_module` with the *path* argument set to ``P.__path__``.
+ When *P* itself has a dotted name, apply this recipe recursively.
+
+
+.. function:: load_module(name, file, pathname, description)
+
+ .. index:: builtin: reload
+
+ Load a module that was previously found by :func:`find_module` (or by an
+ otherwise conducted search yielding compatible results). This function does
+ more than importing the module: if the module was already imported, it is
+ equivalent to a :func:`reload`! The *name* argument indicates the full
+ module name (including the package name, if this is a submodule of a
+ package). The *file* argument is an open file, and *pathname* is the
+ corresponding file name; these can be ``None`` and ``''``, respectively, when
+ the module is a package or not being loaded from a file. The *description*
+ argument is a tuple, as would be returned by :func:`get_suffixes`, describing
+ what kind of module must be loaded.
+
+ If the load is successful, the return value is the module object; otherwise,
+ an exception (usually :exc:`ImportError`) is raised.
+
+ **Important:** the caller is responsible for closing the *file* argument, if
+ it was not ``None``, even when an exception is raised. This is best done
+ using a :keyword:`try` ... :keyword:`finally` statement.
+
+
+.. function:: new_module(name)
+
+ Return a new empty module object called *name*. This object is *not* inserted
+ in ``sys.modules``.
+
+
+.. function:: lock_held()
+
+ Return ``True`` if the import lock is currently held, else ``False``. On
+ platforms without threads, always return ``False``.
+
+ On platforms with threads, a thread executing an import holds an internal lock
+ until the import is complete. This lock blocks other threads from doing an
+ import until the original import completes, which in turn prevents other threads
+ from seeing incomplete module objects constructed by the original thread while
+ in the process of completing its import (and the imports, if any, triggered by
+ that).
+
+
+.. function:: acquire_lock()
+
+ Acquire the interpreter's import lock for the current thread. This lock should
+ be used by import hooks to ensure thread-safety when importing modules.
+
+ Once a thread has acquired the import lock, the same thread may acquire it
+ again without blocking; the thread must release it once for each time it has
+ acquired it.
+
+ On platforms without threads, this function does nothing.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. function:: release_lock()
+
+ Release the interpreter's import lock. On platforms without threads, this
+ function does nothing.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+The following constants with integer values, defined in this module, are used to
+indicate the search result of :func:`find_module`.
+
+
+.. data:: PY_SOURCE
+
+ The module was found as a source file.
+
+
+.. data:: PY_COMPILED
+
+ The module was found as a compiled code object file.
+
+
+.. data:: C_EXTENSION
+
+ The module was found as dynamically loadable shared library.
+
+
+.. data:: PKG_DIRECTORY
+
+ The module was found as a package directory.
+
+
+.. data:: C_BUILTIN
+
+ The module was found as a built-in module.
+
+
+.. data:: PY_FROZEN
+
+ The module was found as a frozen module (see :func:`init_frozen`).
+
+The following constant and functions are obsolete; their functionality is
+available through :func:`find_module` or :func:`load_module`. They are kept
+around for backward compatibility:
+
+
+.. data:: SEARCH_ERROR
+
+ Unused.
+
+
+.. function:: init_builtin(name)
+
+ Initialize the built-in module called *name* and return its module object along
+ with storing it in ``sys.modules``. If the module was already initialized, it
+ will be initialized *again*. Re-initialization involves the copying of the
+ built-in module's ``__dict__`` from the cached module over the module's entry in
+ ``sys.modules``. If there is no built-in module called *name*, ``None`` is
+ returned.
+
+
+.. function:: init_frozen(name)
+
+ Initialize the frozen module called *name* and return its module object. If
+ the module was already initialized, it will be initialized *again*. If there
+ is no frozen module called *name*, ``None`` is returned. (Frozen modules are
+ modules written in Python whose compiled byte-code object is incorporated
+ into a custom-built Python interpreter by Python's :program:`freeze`
+ utility. See :file:`Tools/freeze/` for now.)
+
+
+.. function:: is_builtin(name)
+
+ Return ``1`` if there is a built-in module called *name* which can be
+ initialized again. Return ``-1`` if there is a built-in module called *name*
+ which cannot be initialized again (see :func:`init_builtin`). Return ``0`` if
+ there is no built-in module called *name*.
+
+
+.. function:: is_frozen(name)
+
+ Return ``True`` if there is a frozen module (see :func:`init_frozen`) called
+ *name*, or ``False`` if there is no such module.
+
+
+.. function:: load_compiled(name, pathname, [file])
+
+ .. index:: pair: file; byte-code
+
+ Load and initialize a module implemented as a byte-compiled code file and return
+ its module object. If the module was already initialized, it will be
+ initialized *again*. The *name* argument is used to create or access a module
+ object. The *pathname* argument points to the byte-compiled code file. The
+ *file* argument is the byte-compiled code file, open for reading in binary mode,
+ from the beginning. It must currently be a real file object, not a user-defined
+ class emulating a file.
+
+
+.. function:: load_dynamic(name, pathname[, file])
+
+ Load and initialize a module implemented as a dynamically loadable shared
+ library and return its module object. If the module was already initialized, it
+ will be initialized *again*. Re-initialization involves copying the ``__dict__``
+ attribute of the cached instance of the module over the value used in the module
+ cached in ``sys.modules``. The *pathname* argument must point to the shared
+ library. The *name* argument is used to construct the name of the
+ initialization function: an external C function called ``initname()`` in the
+ shared library is called. The optional *file* argument is ignored. (Note:
+ using shared libraries is highly system dependent, and not all systems support
+ it.)
+
+ .. impl-detail::
+
+ The import internals identify extension modules by filename, so doing
+ ``foo = load_dynamic("foo", "mod.so")`` and
+ ``bar = load_dynamic("bar", "mod.so")`` will result in both foo and bar
+ referring to the same module, regardless of whether or not
+ ``mod.so`` exports an ``initbar`` function. On systems which
+ support them, symlinks can be used to import multiple modules from
+ the same shared library, as each reference to the module will use
+ a different file name.
+
+
+.. function:: load_source(name, pathname[, file])
+
+ Load and initialize a module implemented as a Python source file and return its
+ module object. If the module was already initialized, it will be initialized
+ *again*. The *name* argument is used to create or access a module object. The
+ *pathname* argument points to the source file. The *file* argument is the
+ source file, open for reading as text, from the beginning. It must currently be
+ a real file object, not a user-defined class emulating a file. Note that if a
+ properly matching byte-compiled file (with suffix :file:`.pyc` or :file:`.pyo`)
+ exists, it will be used instead of parsing the given source file.
+
+
+.. class:: NullImporter(path_string)
+
+ The :class:`NullImporter` type is a :pep:`302` import hook that handles
+ non-directory path strings by failing to find any modules. Calling this type
+ with an existing directory or empty string raises :exc:`ImportError`.
+ Otherwise, a :class:`NullImporter` instance is returned.
+
+ Python adds instances of this type to ``sys.path_importer_cache`` for any path
+ entries that are not directories and are not handled by any other path hooks on
+ ``sys.path_hooks``. Instances have only one method:
+
+
+ .. method:: NullImporter.find_module(fullname [, path])
+
+ This method always returns ``None``, indicating that the requested module could
+ not be found.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. _examples-imp:
+
+Examples
+--------
+
+The following function emulates what was the standard import statement up to
+Python 1.4 (no hierarchical module names). (This *implementation* wouldn't work
+in that version, since :func:`find_module` has been extended and
+:func:`load_module` has been added in 1.4.) ::
+
+ import imp
+ import sys
+
+ def __import__(name, globals=None, locals=None, fromlist=None):
+ # Fast path: see if the module has already been imported.
+ try:
+ return sys.modules[name]
+ except KeyError:
+ pass
+
+ # If any of the following calls raises an exception,
+ # there's a problem we can't handle -- let the caller handle it.
+
+ fp, pathname, description = imp.find_module(name)
+
+ try:
+ return imp.load_module(name, fp, pathname, description)
+ finally:
+ # Since we may exit via an exception, close fp explicitly.
+ if fp:
+ fp.close()
+
+.. index::
+ builtin: reload
+ module: knee
+
+A more complete example that implements hierarchical module names and includes a
+:func:`reload` function can be found in the module :mod:`knee`. The :mod:`knee`
+module can be found in :file:`Demo/imputil/` in the Python source distribution.

+
+ *modname* specifies a single module (not dotted) within the parent.

+###############################
+ The Python Standard Library
+###############################
+
+While :ref:`reference-index` describes the exact syntax and
+semantics of the Python language, this library reference manual
+describes the standard library that is distributed with Python. It also
+describes some of the optional components that are commonly included
+in Python distributions.
+
+Python's standard library is very extensive, offering a wide range of
+facilities as indicated by the long table of contents listed below. The
+library contains built-in modules (written in C) that provide access to
+system functionality such as file I/O that would otherwise be
+inaccessible to Python programmers, as well as modules written in Python
+that provide standardized solutions for many problems that occur in
+everyday programming. Some of these modules are explicitly designed to
+encourage and enhance the portability of Python programs by abstracting
+away platform-specifics into platform-neutral APIs.
+
+The Python installers for the Windows platform usually includes
+the entire standard library and often also include many additional
+components. For Unix-like operating systems Python is normally provided
+as a collection of packages, so it may be necessary to use the packaging
+tools provided with the operating system to obtain some or all of the
+optional components.
+
+In addition to the standard library, there is a growing collection of
+several thousand components (from individual programs and modules to
+packages and entire application development frameworks), available from
+the `Python Package Index <http://pypi.python.org/pypi>`_.

+
+The :mod:`inspect` module provides several useful functions to help get
+information about live objects such as modules, classes, methods, functions,
+tracebacks, frame objects, and code objects. For example, it can help you
+examine the contents of a class, retrieve the source code of a method, extract
+and format the argument list for a function, or get all the information you need
+to display a detailed traceback.
+
+There are four main kinds of services provided by this module: type checking,
+getting source code, inspecting classes and functions, and examining the
+interpreter stack.
+
+
+.. _inspect-types:
+
+Types and members
+-----------------
+
+The :func:`getmembers` function retrieves the members of an object such as a
+class or module. The sixteen functions whose names begin with "is" are mainly
+provided as convenient choices for the second argument to :func:`getmembers`.
+They also help you determine when you can expect to find the following special
+attributes:

+
+Note:
+
+(1)
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.2
+ :attr:`im_class` used to refer to the class that defined the method.
+
+
+.. function:: getmembers(object[, predicate])
+
+ Return all the members of an object in a list of (name, value) pairs sorted by
+ name. If the optional *predicate* argument is supplied, only members for which
+ the predicate returns a true value are included.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ :func:`getmembers` does not return metaclass attributes when the argument
+ is a class (this behavior is inherited from the :func:`dir` function).
+
+
+.. function:: getmoduleinfo(path)
+
+ Return a tuple of values that describe how Python will interpret the file
+ identified by *path* if it is a module, or ``None`` if it would not be
+ identified as a module. The return tuple is ``(name, suffix, mode,
+ module_type)``, where *name* is the name of the module without the name of
+ any enclosing package, *suffix* is the trailing part of the file name (which
+ may not be a dot-delimited extension), *mode* is the :func:`open` mode that
+ would be used (``'r'`` or ``'rb'``), and *module_type* is an integer giving
+ the type of the module. *module_type* will have a value which can be
+ compared to the constants defined in the :mod:`imp` module; see the
+ documentation for that module for more information on module types.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ Returns a :term:`named tuple` ``ModuleInfo(name, suffix, mode,
+ module_type)``.
+
+
+.. function:: getmodulename(path)
+
+ Return the name of the module named by the file *path*, without including the
+ names of enclosing packages. This uses the same algorithm as the interpreter
+ uses when searching for modules. If the name cannot be matched according to the
+ interpreter's rules, ``None`` is returned.
+
+
+.. function:: ismodule(object)
+
+ Return true if the object is a module.
+
+
+.. function:: isclass(object)
+
+ Return true if the object is a class, whether built-in or created in Python
+ code.
+
+
+.. function:: ismethod(object)
+
+ Return true if the object is a bound method written in Python.
+
+
+.. function:: isfunction(object)
+
+ Return true if the object is a Python function, which includes functions
+ created by a :term:`lambda` expression.
+
+
+.. function:: isgeneratorfunction(object)
+
+ Return true if the object is a Python generator function.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: isgenerator(object)
+
+ Return true if the object is a generator.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: istraceback(object)
+
+ Return true if the object is a traceback.
+
+
+.. function:: isframe(object)
+
+ Return true if the object is a frame.
+
+
+.. function:: iscode(object)
+
+ Return true if the object is a code.
+
+
+.. function:: isbuiltin(object)
+
+ Return true if the object is a built-in function or a bound built-in method.
+
+
+.. function:: isroutine(object)
+
+ Return true if the object is a user-defined or built-in function or method.
+
+
+.. function:: isabstract(object)
+
+ Return true if the object is an abstract base class.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: ismethoddescriptor(object)
+
+ Return true if the object is a method descriptor, but not if
+ :func:`ismethod`, :func:`isclass`, :func:`isfunction` or :func:`isbuiltin`
+ are true.
+
+ This is new as of Python 2.2, and, for example, is true of
+ ``int.__add__``. An object passing this test has a :attr:`__get__` attribute
+ but not a :attr:`__set__` attribute, but beyond that the set of attributes
+ varies. :attr:`__name__` is usually sensible, and :attr:`__doc__` often is.
+
+ Methods implemented via descriptors that also pass one of the other tests
+ return false from the :func:`ismethoddescriptor` test, simply because the
+ other tests promise more -- you can, e.g., count on having the
+ :attr:`im_func` attribute (etc) when an object passes :func:`ismethod`.
+
+
+.. function:: isdatadescriptor(object)
+
+ Return true if the object is a data descriptor.
+
+ Data descriptors have both a :attr:`__get__` and a :attr:`__set__` attribute.
+ Examples are properties (defined in Python), getsets, and members. The
+ latter two are defined in C and there are more specific tests available for
+ those types, which is robust across Python implementations. Typically, data
+ descriptors will also have :attr:`__name__` and :attr:`__doc__` attributes
+ (properties, getsets, and members have both of these attributes), but this is
+ not guaranteed.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. function:: isgetsetdescriptor(object)
+
+ Return true if the object is a getset descriptor.
+
+ .. impl-detail::
+
+ getsets are attributes defined in extension modules via
+ :c:type:`PyGetSetDef` structures. For Python implementations without such
+ types, this method will always return ``False``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. function:: ismemberdescriptor(object)
+
+ Return true if the object is a member descriptor.
+
+ .. impl-detail::
+
+ Member descriptors are attributes defined in extension modules via
+ :c:type:`PyMemberDef` structures. For Python implementations without such
+ types, this method will always return ``False``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. _inspect-source:
+
+Retrieving source code
+----------------------
+
+.. function:: getdoc(object)
+
+ Get the documentation string for an object, cleaned up with :func:`cleandoc`.
+
+
+.. function:: getcomments(object)
+
+ Return in a single string any lines of comments immediately preceding the
+ object's source code (for a class, function, or method), or at the top of the
+ Python source file (if the object is a module).
+
+
+.. function:: getfile(object)
+
+ Return the name of the (text or binary) file in which an object was defined.
+ This will fail with a :exc:`TypeError` if the object is a built-in module,
+ class, or function.
+
+
+.. function:: getmodule(object)
+
+ Try to guess which module an object was defined in.
+
+
+.. function:: getsourcefile(object)
+
+ Return the name of the Python source file in which an object was defined. This
+ will fail with a :exc:`TypeError` if the object is a built-in module, class, or
+ function.
+
+
+.. function:: getsourcelines(object)
+
+ Return a list of source lines and starting line number for an object. The
+ argument may be a module, class, method, function, traceback, frame, or code
+ object. The source code is returned as a list of the lines corresponding to the
+ object and the line number indicates where in the original source file the first
+ line of code was found. An :exc:`IOError` is raised if the source code cannot
+ be retrieved.
+
+
+.. function:: getsource(object)
+
+ Return the text of the source code for an object. The argument may be a module,
+ class, method, function, traceback, frame, or code object. The source code is
+ returned as a single string. An :exc:`IOError` is raised if the source code
+ cannot be retrieved.
+
+
+.. function:: cleandoc(doc)
+
+ Clean up indentation from docstrings that are indented to line up with blocks
+ of code. Any whitespace that can be uniformly removed from the second line
+ onwards is removed. Also, all tabs are expanded to spaces.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. _inspect-classes-functions:
+
+Classes and functions
+---------------------
+
+
+.. function:: getclasstree(classes[, unique])
+
+ Arrange the given list of classes into a hierarchy of nested lists. Where a
+ nested list appears, it contains classes derived from the class whose entry
+ immediately precedes the list. Each entry is a 2-tuple containing a class and a
+ tuple of its base classes. If the *unique* argument is true, exactly one entry
+ appears in the returned structure for each class in the given list. Otherwise,
+ classes using multiple inheritance and their descendants will appear multiple
+ times.
+
+
+.. function:: getargspec(func)
+
+ Get the names and default values of a Python function's arguments. A tuple of
+ four things is returned: ``(args, varargs, keywords, defaults)``. *args* is a
+ list of the argument names (it may contain nested lists). *varargs* and
+ *keywords* are the names of the ``*`` and ``**`` arguments or
+ ``None``. *defaults* is a tuple of default argument values or None if there
+ are no default arguments; if this tuple has *n* elements, they correspond to
+ the last *n* elements listed in *args*.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ Returns a :term:`named tuple` ``ArgSpec(args, varargs, keywords,
+ defaults)``.
+
+
+.. function:: getargvalues(frame)
+
+ Get information about arguments passed into a particular frame. A tuple of
+ four things is returned: ``(args, varargs, keywords, locals)``. *args* is a
+ list of the argument names (it may contain nested lists). *varargs* and
+ *keywords* are the names of the ``*`` and ``**`` arguments or ``None``.
+ *locals* is the locals dictionary of the given frame.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ Returns a :term:`named tuple` ``ArgInfo(args, varargs, keywords,
+ locals)``.
+
+
+.. function:: formatargspec(args[, varargs, varkw, defaults, formatarg, formatvarargs, formatvarkw, formatvalue, join])
+
+ Format a pretty argument spec from the four values returned by
+ :func:`getargspec`. The format\* arguments are the corresponding optional
+ formatting functions that are called to turn names and values into strings.
+
+
+.. function:: formatargvalues(args[, varargs, varkw, locals, formatarg, formatvarargs, formatvarkw, formatvalue, join])
+
+ Format a pretty argument spec from the four values returned by
+ :func:`getargvalues`. The format\* arguments are the corresponding optional
+ formatting functions that are called to turn names and values into strings.
+
+
+.. function:: getmro(cls)
+
+ Return a tuple of class cls's base classes, including cls, in method resolution
+ order. No class appears more than once in this tuple. Note that the method
+ resolution order depends on cls's type. Unless a very peculiar user-defined
+ metatype is in use, cls will be the first element of the tuple.
+
+
+.. function:: getcallargs(func[, *args][, **kwds])
+
+ Bind the *args* and *kwds* to the argument names of the Python function or
+ method *func*, as if it was called with them. For bound methods, bind also the
+ first argument (typically named ``self``) to the associated instance. A dict
+ is returned, mapping the argument names (including the names of the ``*`` and
+ ``**`` arguments, if any) to their values from *args* and *kwds*. In case of
+ invoking *func* incorrectly, i.e. whenever ``func(*args, **kwds)`` would raise
+ an exception because of incompatible signature, an exception of the same type
+ and the same or similar message is raised. For example::
+
+ >>> from inspect import getcallargs
+ >>> def f(a, b=1, *pos, **named):
+ ... pass
+ >>> getcallargs(f, 1, 2, 3)
+ {'a': 1, 'named': {}, 'b': 2, 'pos': (3,)}
+ >>> getcallargs(f, a=2, x=4)
+ {'a': 2, 'named': {'x': 4}, 'b': 1, 'pos': ()}
+ >>> getcallargs(f)
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ ...
+ TypeError: f() takes at least 1 argument (0 given)
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+.. _inspect-stack:
+
+The interpreter stack
+---------------------
+
+When the following functions return "frame records," each record is a tuple of
+six items: the frame object, the filename, the line number of the current line,
+the function name, a list of lines of context from the source code, and the
+index of the current line within that list.
+
+.. note::
+
+ Keeping references to frame objects, as found in the first element of the frame
+ records these functions return, can cause your program to create reference
+ cycles. Once a reference cycle has been created, the lifespan of all objects
+ which can be accessed from the objects which form the cycle can become much
+ longer even if Python's optional cycle detector is enabled. If such cycles must
+ be created, it is important to ensure they are explicitly broken to avoid the
+ delayed destruction of objects and increased memory consumption which occurs.
+
+ Though the cycle detector will catch these, destruction of the frames (and local
+ variables) can be made deterministic by removing the cycle in a
+ :keyword:`finally` clause. This is also important if the cycle detector was
+ disabled when Python was compiled or using :func:`gc.disable`. For example::
+
+ def handle_stackframe_without_leak():
+ frame = inspect.currentframe()
+ try:
+ # do something with the frame
+ finally:
+ del frame
+
+The optional *context* argument supported by most of these functions specifies
+the number of lines of context to return, which are centered around the current
+line.
+
+
+.. function:: getframeinfo(frame[, context])
+
+ Get information about a frame or traceback object. A 5-tuple is returned, the
+ last five elements of the frame's frame record.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ Returns a :term:`named tuple` ``Traceback(filename, lineno, function,
+ code_context, index)``.
+
+
+.. function:: getouterframes(frame[, context])
+
+ Get a list of frame records for a frame and all outer frames. These frames
+ represent the calls that lead to the creation of *frame*. The first entry in the
+ returned list represents *frame*; the last entry represents the outermost call
+ on *frame*'s stack.
+
+
+.. function:: getinnerframes(traceback[, context])
+
+ Get a list of frame records for a traceback's frame and all inner frames. These
+ frames represent calls made as a consequence of *frame*. The first entry in the
+ list represents *traceback*; the last entry represents where the exception was
+ raised.
+
+
+.. function:: currentframe()
+
+ Return the frame object for the caller's stack frame.
+
+ .. impl-detail::
+
+ This function relies on Python stack frame support in the interpreter,
+ which isn't guaranteed to exist in all implementations of Python. If
+ running in an implementation without Python stack frame support this
+ function returns ``None``.
+
+
+.. function:: stack([context])
+
+ Return a list of frame records for the caller's stack. The first entry in the
+ returned list represents the caller; the last entry represents the outermost
+ call on the stack.
+
+
+.. function:: trace([context])
+
+ Return a list of frame records for the stack between the current frame and the
+ frame in which an exception currently being handled was raised in. The first
+ entry in the list represents the caller; the last entry represents where the
+ exception was raised.

+************
+Introduction
+************
+
+The "Python library" contains several different kinds of components.
+
+It contains data types that would normally be considered part of the "core" of a
+language, such as numbers and lists. For these types, the Python language core
+defines the form of literals and places some constraints on their semantics, but
+does not fully define the semantics. (On the other hand, the language core does
+define syntactic properties like the spelling and priorities of operators.)
+
+The library also contains built-in functions and exceptions --- objects that can
+be used by all Python code without the need of an :keyword:`import` statement.
+Some of these are defined by the core language, but many are not essential for
+the core semantics and are only described here.
+
+The bulk of the library, however, consists of a collection of modules. There are
+many ways to dissect this collection. Some modules are written in C and built
+in to the Python interpreter; others are written in Python and imported in
+source form. Some modules provide interfaces that are highly specific to
+Python, like printing a stack trace; some provide interfaces that are specific
+to particular operating systems, such as access to specific hardware; others
+provide interfaces that are specific to a particular application domain, like
+the World Wide Web. Some modules are available in all versions and ports of
+Python; others are only available when the underlying system supports or
+requires them; yet others are available only when a particular configuration
+option was chosen at the time when Python was compiled and installed.
+
+This manual is organized "from the inside out:" it first describes the built-in
+data types, then the built-in functions and exceptions, and finally the modules,
+grouped in chapters of related modules. The ordering of the chapters as well as
+the ordering of the modules within each chapter is roughly from most relevant to
+least important.
+
+This means that if you start reading this manual from the start, and skip to the
+next chapter when you get bored, you will get a reasonable overview of the
+available modules and application areas that are supported by the Python
+library. Of course, you don't *have* to read it like a novel --- you can also
+browse the table of contents (in front of the manual), or look for a specific
+function, module or term in the index (in the back). And finally, if you enjoy
+learning about random subjects, you choose a random page number (see module

+:mod:`io` --- Core tools for working with streams
+=================================================

+
+The :mod:`io` module provides the Python interfaces to stream handling.
+Under Python 2.x, this is proposed as an alternative to the built-in
+:class:`file` object, but in Python 3.x it is the default interface to
+access files and streams.
+
+.. note::
+
+ Since this module has been designed primarily for Python 3.x, you have to
+ be aware that all uses of "bytes" in this document refer to the
+ :class:`str` type (of which :class:`bytes` is an alias), and all uses
+ of "text" refer to the :class:`unicode` type. Furthermore, those two
+ types are not interchangeable in the :mod:`io` APIs.
+
+At the top of the I/O hierarchy is the abstract base class :class:`IOBase`. It
+defines the basic interface to a stream. Note, however, that there is no
+separation between reading and writing to streams; implementations are allowed
+to raise an :exc:`IOError` if they do not support a given operation.
+
+Extending :class:`IOBase` is :class:`RawIOBase` which deals simply with the
+reading and writing of raw bytes to a stream. :class:`FileIO` subclasses
+:class:`RawIOBase` to provide an interface to files in the machine's
+file system.
+
+:class:`BufferedIOBase` deals with buffering on a raw byte stream
+(:class:`RawIOBase`). Its subclasses, :class:`BufferedWriter`,
+:class:`BufferedReader`, and :class:`BufferedRWPair` buffer streams that are
+readable, writable, and both readable and writable.
+:class:`BufferedRandom` provides a buffered interface to random access
+streams. :class:`BytesIO` is a simple stream of in-memory bytes.
+
+Another :class:`IOBase` subclass, :class:`TextIOBase`, deals with
+streams whose bytes represent text, and handles encoding and decoding
+from and to :class:`unicode` strings. :class:`TextIOWrapper`, which extends
+it, is a buffered text interface to a buffered raw stream
+(:class:`BufferedIOBase`). Finally, :class:`StringIO` is an in-memory
+stream for unicode text.
+
+Argument names are not part of the specification, and only the arguments of
+:func:`.open` are intended to be used as keyword arguments.
+
+
+Module Interface
+----------------
+
+.. data:: DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE
+
+ An int containing the default buffer size used by the module's buffered I/O
+ classes. :func:`.open` uses the file's blksize (as obtained by
+ :func:`os.stat`) if possible.
+
+.. function:: open(file, mode='r', buffering=-1, encoding=None, errors=None, newline=None, closefd=True)
+
+ Open *file* and return a corresponding stream. If the file cannot be opened,
+ an :exc:`IOError` is raised.
+
+ *file* is either a string giving the pathname (absolute or
+ relative to the current working directory) of the file to be opened or
+ an integer file descriptor of the file to be wrapped. (If a file descriptor
+ is given, it is closed when the returned I/O object is closed, unless
+ *closefd* is set to ``False``.)
+
+ *mode* is an optional string that specifies the mode in which the file is
+ opened. It defaults to ``'r'`` which means open for reading in text mode.
+ Other common values are ``'w'`` for writing (truncating the file if it
+ already exists), and ``'a'`` for appending (which on *some* Unix systems,
+ means that *all* writes append to the end of the file regardless of the
+ current seek position). In text mode, if *encoding* is not specified the
+ encoding used is platform dependent. (For reading and writing raw bytes use
+ binary mode and leave *encoding* unspecified.) The available modes are:
+
+ ========= ===============================================================
+ Character Meaning
+ --------- ---------------------------------------------------------------
+ ``'r'`` open for reading (default)
+ ``'w'`` open for writing, truncating the file first
+ ``'a'`` open for writing, appending to the end of the file if it exists
+ ``'b'`` binary mode
+ ``'t'`` text mode (default)
+ ``'+'`` open a disk file for updating (reading and writing)
+ ``'U'`` universal newlines mode (for backwards compatibility; should
+ not be used in new code)
+ ========= ===============================================================
+
+ The default mode is ``'rt'`` (open for reading text). For binary random
+ access, the mode ``'w+b'`` opens and truncates the file to 0 bytes, while
+ ``'r+b'`` opens the file without truncation.
+
+ Python distinguishes between files opened in binary and text modes, even when
+ the underlying operating system doesn't. Files opened in binary mode
+ (including ``'b'`` in the *mode* argument) return contents as :class:`bytes`
+ objects without any decoding. In text mode (the default, or when ``'t'`` is
+ included in the *mode* argument), the contents of the file are returned as
+ :class:`unicode` strings, the bytes having been first decoded using a
+ platform-dependent encoding or using the specified *encoding* if given.
+
+ *buffering* is an optional integer used to set the buffering policy.
+ Pass 0 to switch buffering off (only allowed in binary mode), 1 to select
+ line buffering (only usable in text mode), and an integer > 1 to indicate
+ the size of a fixed-size chunk buffer. When no *buffering* argument is
+ given, the default buffering policy works as follows:
+
+ * Binary files are buffered in fixed-size chunks; the size of the buffer
+ is chosen using a heuristic trying to determine the underlying device's
+ "block size" and falling back on :attr:`DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE`.
+ On many systems, the buffer will typically be 4096 or 8192 bytes long.
+
+ * "Interactive" text files (files for which :meth:`isatty` returns True)
+ use line buffering. Other text files use the policy described above
+ for binary files.
+
+ *encoding* is the name of the encoding used to decode or encode the file.
+ This should only be used in text mode. The default encoding is platform
+ dependent (whatever :func:`locale.getpreferredencoding` returns), but any
+ encoding supported by Python can be used. See the :mod:`codecs` module for
+ the list of supported encodings.
+
+ *errors* is an optional string that specifies how encoding and decoding
+ errors are to be handled--this cannot be used in binary mode. Pass
+ ``'strict'`` to raise a :exc:`ValueError` exception if there is an encoding
+ error (the default of ``None`` has the same effect), or pass ``'ignore'`` to
+ ignore errors. (Note that ignoring encoding errors can lead to data loss.)
+ ``'replace'`` causes a replacement marker (such as ``'?'``) to be inserted
+ where there is malformed data. When writing, ``'xmlcharrefreplace'``
+ (replace with the appropriate XML character reference) or
+ ``'backslashreplace'`` (replace with backslashed escape sequences) can be
+ used. Any other error handling name that has been registered with
+ :func:`codecs.register_error` is also valid.
+
+ .. index::
+ single: universal newlines; open() (in module io)
+
+ *newline* controls how :term:`universal newlines` works (it only applies to
+ text mode). It can be ``None``, ``''``, ``'\n'``, ``'\r'``, and ``'\r\n'``.
+ It works as follows:
+
+ * On input, if *newline* is ``None``, universal newlines mode is enabled.
+ Lines in the input can end in ``'\n'``, ``'\r'``, or ``'\r\n'``, and these
+ are translated into ``'\n'`` before being returned to the caller. If it is
+ ``''``, universal newlines mode is enabled, but line endings are returned to
+ the caller untranslated. If it has any of the other legal values, input
+ lines are only terminated by the given string, and the line ending is
+ returned to the caller untranslated.
+
+ * On output, if *newline* is ``None``, any ``'\n'`` characters written are
+ translated to the system default line separator, :data:`os.linesep`. If
+ *newline* is ``''``, no translation takes place. If *newline* is any of
+ the other legal values, any ``'\n'`` characters written are translated to
+ the given string.
+
+ If *closefd* is ``False`` and a file descriptor rather than a filename was
+ given, the underlying file descriptor will be kept open when the file is
+ closed. If a filename is given *closefd* has no effect and must be ``True``
+ (the default).
+
+ The type of file object returned by the :func:`.open` function depends on the
+ mode. When :func:`.open` is used to open a file in a text mode (``'w'``,
+ ``'r'``, ``'wt'``, ``'rt'``, etc.), it returns a subclass of
+ :class:`TextIOBase` (specifically :class:`TextIOWrapper`). When used to open
+ a file in a binary mode with buffering, the returned class is a subclass of
+ :class:`BufferedIOBase`. The exact class varies: in read binary mode, it
+ returns a :class:`BufferedReader`; in write binary and append binary modes,
+ it returns a :class:`BufferedWriter`, and in read/write mode, it returns a
+ :class:`BufferedRandom`. When buffering is disabled, the raw stream, a
+ subclass of :class:`RawIOBase`, :class:`FileIO`, is returned.
+
+ It is also possible to use an :class:`unicode` or :class:`bytes` string
+ as a file for both reading and writing. For :class:`unicode` strings
+ :class:`StringIO` can be used like a file opened in text mode,
+ and for :class:`bytes` a :class:`BytesIO` can be used like a
+ file opened in a binary mode.
+
+
+.. exception:: BlockingIOError
+
+ Error raised when blocking would occur on a non-blocking stream. It inherits
+ :exc:`IOError`.
+
+ In addition to those of :exc:`IOError`, :exc:`BlockingIOError` has one
+ attribute:
+
+ .. attribute:: characters_written
+
+ An integer containing the number of characters written to the stream
+ before it blocked.
+
+
+.. exception:: UnsupportedOperation
+
+ An exception inheriting :exc:`IOError` and :exc:`ValueError` that is raised
+ when an unsupported operation is called on a stream.
+
+
+I/O Base Classes
+----------------
+
+.. class:: IOBase
+
+ The abstract base class for all I/O classes, acting on streams of bytes.
+ There is no public constructor.
+
+ This class provides empty abstract implementations for many methods
+ that derived classes can override selectively; the default
+ implementations represent a file that cannot be read, written or
+ seeked.
+
+ Even though :class:`IOBase` does not declare :meth:`read`, :meth:`readinto`,
+ or :meth:`write` because their signatures will vary, implementations and
+ clients should consider those methods part of the interface. Also,
+ implementations may raise a :exc:`IOError` when operations they do not
+ support are called.
+
+ The basic type used for binary data read from or written to a file is
+ :class:`bytes` (also known as :class:`str`). :class:`bytearray`\s are
+ accepted too, and in some cases (such as :class:`readinto`) required.
+ Text I/O classes work with :class:`unicode` data.
+
+ Note that calling any method (even inquiries) on a closed stream is
+ undefined. Implementations may raise :exc:`IOError` in this case.
+
+ IOBase (and its subclasses) support the iterator protocol, meaning that an
+ :class:`IOBase` object can be iterated over yielding the lines in a stream.
+ Lines are defined slightly differently depending on whether the stream is
+ a binary stream (yielding :class:`bytes`), or a text stream (yielding
+ :class:`unicode` strings). See :meth:`~IOBase.readline` below.
+
+ IOBase is also a context manager and therefore supports the
+ :keyword:`with` statement. In this example, *file* is closed after the
+ :keyword:`with` statement's suite is finished---even if an exception occurs::
+
+ with io.open('spam.txt', 'w') as file:
+ file.write(u'Spam and eggs!')
+
+ :class:`IOBase` provides these data attributes and methods:
+
+ .. method:: close()
+
+ Flush and close this stream. This method has no effect if the file is
+ already closed. Once the file is closed, any operation on the file
+ (e.g. reading or writing) will raise a :exc:`ValueError`.
+
+ As a convenience, it is allowed to call this method more than once;
+ only the first call, however, will have an effect.
+
+ .. attribute:: closed
+
+ True if the stream is closed.
+
+ .. method:: fileno()
+
+ Return the underlying file descriptor (an integer) of the stream if it
+ exists. An :exc:`IOError` is raised if the IO object does not use a file
+ descriptor.
+
+ .. method:: flush()
+
+ Flush the write buffers of the stream if applicable. This does nothing
+ for read-only and non-blocking streams.
+
+ .. method:: isatty()
+
+ Return ``True`` if the stream is interactive (i.e., connected to
+ a terminal/tty device).
+
+ .. method:: readable()
+
+ Return ``True`` if the stream can be read from. If False, :meth:`read`
+ will raise :exc:`IOError`.
+
+ .. method:: readline(limit=-1)
+
+ Read and return one line from the stream. If *limit* is specified, at
+ most *limit* bytes will be read.
+
+ The line terminator is always ``b'\n'`` for binary files; for text files,
+ the *newlines* argument to :func:`.open` can be used to select the line
+ terminator(s) recognized.
+
+ .. method:: readlines(hint=-1)
+
+ Read and return a list of lines from the stream. *hint* can be specified
+ to control the number of lines read: no more lines will be read if the
+ total size (in bytes/characters) of all lines so far exceeds *hint*.
+
+ Note that it's already possible to iterate on file objects using ``for
+ line in file: ...`` without calling ``file.readlines()``.
+
+ .. method:: seek(offset, whence=SEEK_SET)
+
+ Change the stream position to the given byte *offset*. *offset* is
+ interpreted relative to the position indicated by *whence*. Values for
+ *whence* are:
+
+ * :data:`SEEK_SET` or ``0`` -- start of the stream (the default);
+ *offset* should be zero or positive
+ * :data:`SEEK_CUR` or ``1`` -- current stream position; *offset* may
+ be negative
+ * :data:`SEEK_END` or ``2`` -- end of the stream; *offset* is usually
+ negative
+
+ Return the new absolute position.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+ The ``SEEK_*`` constants
+
+ .. method:: seekable()
+
+ Return ``True`` if the stream supports random access. If ``False``,
+ :meth:`seek`, :meth:`tell` and :meth:`truncate` will raise :exc:`IOError`.
+
+ .. method:: tell()
+
+ Return the current stream position.
+
+ .. method:: truncate(size=None)
+
+ Resize the stream to the given *size* in bytes (or the current position
+ if *size* is not specified). The current stream position isn't changed.
+ This resizing can extend or reduce the current file size. In case of
+ extension, the contents of the new file area depend on the platform
+ (on most systems, additional bytes are zero-filled, on Windows they're
+ undetermined). The new file size is returned.
+
+ .. method:: writable()
+
+ Return ``True`` if the stream supports writing. If ``False``,
+ :meth:`write` and :meth:`truncate` will raise :exc:`IOError`.
+
+ .. method:: writelines(lines)
+
+ Write a list of lines to the stream. Line separators are not added, so it
+ is usual for each of the lines provided to have a line separator at the
+ end.
+
+
+.. class:: RawIOBase
+
+ Base class for raw binary I/O. It inherits :class:`IOBase`. There is no
+ public constructor.
+
+ Raw binary I/O typically provides low-level access to an underlying OS
+ device or API, and does not try to encapsulate it in high-level primitives
+ (this is left to Buffered I/O and Text I/O, described later in this page).
+
+ In addition to the attributes and methods from :class:`IOBase`,
+ RawIOBase provides the following methods:
+
+ .. method:: read(n=-1)
+
+ Read up to *n* bytes from the object and return them. As a convenience,
+ if *n* is unspecified or -1, :meth:`readall` is called. Otherwise,
+ only one system call is ever made. Fewer than *n* bytes may be
+ returned if the operating system call returns fewer than *n* bytes.
+
+ If 0 bytes are returned, and *n* was not 0, this indicates end of file.
+ If the object is in non-blocking mode and no bytes are available,
+ ``None`` is returned.
+
+ .. method:: readall()
+
+ Read and return all the bytes from the stream until EOF, using multiple
+ calls to the stream if necessary.
+
+ .. method:: readinto(b)
+
+ Read up to len(b) bytes into bytearray *b* and return the number
+ of bytes read. If the object is in non-blocking mode and no
+ bytes are available, ``None`` is returned.
+
+ .. method:: write(b)
+
+ Write the given bytes or bytearray object, *b*, to the underlying raw
+ stream and return the number of bytes written. This can be less than
+ ``len(b)``, depending on specifics of the underlying raw stream, and
+ especially if it is in non-blocking mode. ``None`` is returned if the
+ raw stream is set not to block and no single byte could be readily
+ written to it.
+
+
+.. class:: BufferedIOBase
+
+ Base class for binary streams that support some kind of buffering.
+ It inherits :class:`IOBase`. There is no public constructor.
+
+ The main difference with :class:`RawIOBase` is that methods :meth:`read`,
+ :meth:`readinto` and :meth:`write` will try (respectively) to read as much
+ input as requested or to consume all given output, at the expense of
+ making perhaps more than one system call.
+
+ In addition, those methods can raise :exc:`BlockingIOError` if the
+ underlying raw stream is in non-blocking mode and cannot take or give
+ enough data; unlike their :class:`RawIOBase` counterparts, they will
+ never return ``None``.
+
+ Besides, the :meth:`read` method does not have a default
+ implementation that defers to :meth:`readinto`.
+
+ A typical :class:`BufferedIOBase` implementation should not inherit from a
+ :class:`RawIOBase` implementation, but wrap one, like
+ :class:`BufferedWriter` and :class:`BufferedReader` do.
+
+ :class:`BufferedIOBase` provides or overrides these methods and attribute in
+ addition to those from :class:`IOBase`:
+
+ .. attribute:: raw
+
+ The underlying raw stream (a :class:`RawIOBase` instance) that
+ :class:`BufferedIOBase` deals with. This is not part of the
+ :class:`BufferedIOBase` API and may not exist on some implementations.
+
+ .. method:: detach()
+
+ Separate the underlying raw stream from the buffer and return it.
+
+ After the raw stream has been detached, the buffer is in an unusable
+ state.
+
+ Some buffers, like :class:`BytesIO`, do not have the concept of a single
+ raw stream to return from this method. They raise
+ :exc:`UnsupportedOperation`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+ .. method:: read(n=-1)
+
+ Read and return up to *n* bytes. If the argument is omitted, ``None``, or
+ negative, data is read and returned until EOF is reached. An empty bytes
+ object is returned if the stream is already at EOF.
+
+ If the argument is positive, and the underlying raw stream is not
+ interactive, multiple raw reads may be issued to satisfy the byte count
+ (unless EOF is reached first). But for interactive raw streams, at most
+ one raw read will be issued, and a short result does not imply that EOF is
+ imminent.
+
+ A :exc:`BlockingIOError` is raised if the underlying raw stream is in
+ non blocking-mode, and has no data available at the moment.
+
+ .. method:: read1(n=-1)
+
+ Read and return up to *n* bytes, with at most one call to the underlying
+ raw stream's :meth:`~RawIOBase.read` method. This can be useful if you
+ are implementing your own buffering on top of a :class:`BufferedIOBase`
+ object.
+
+ .. method:: readinto(b)
+
+ Read up to len(b) bytes into bytearray *b* and return the number of bytes
+ read.
+
+ Like :meth:`read`, multiple reads may be issued to the underlying raw
+ stream, unless the latter is 'interactive'.
+
+ A :exc:`BlockingIOError` is raised if the underlying raw stream is in
+ non blocking-mode, and has no data available at the moment.
+
+ .. method:: write(b)
+
+ Write the given bytes or bytearray object, *b* and return the number
+ of bytes written (never less than ``len(b)``, since if the write fails
+ an :exc:`IOError` will be raised). Depending on the actual
+ implementation, these bytes may be readily written to the underlying
+ stream, or held in a buffer for performance and latency reasons.
+
+ When in non-blocking mode, a :exc:`BlockingIOError` is raised if the
+ data needed to be written to the raw stream but it couldn't accept
+ all the data without blocking.
+
+
+Raw File I/O
+------------
+
+.. class:: FileIO(name, mode='r', closefd=True)
+
+ :class:`FileIO` represents an OS-level file containing bytes data.
+ It implements the :class:`RawIOBase` interface (and therefore the
+ :class:`IOBase` interface, too).
+
+ The *name* can be one of two things:
+
+ * a string representing the path to the file which will be opened;
+ * an integer representing the number of an existing OS-level file descriptor
+ to which the resulting :class:`FileIO` object will give access.
+
+ The *mode* can be ``'r'``, ``'w'`` or ``'a'`` for reading (default), writing,
+ or appending. The file will be created if it doesn't exist when opened for
+ writing or appending; it will be truncated when opened for writing. Add a
+ ``'+'`` to the mode to allow simultaneous reading and writing.
+
+ The :meth:`read` (when called with a positive argument), :meth:`readinto`
+ and :meth:`write` methods on this class will only make one system call.
+
+ In addition to the attributes and methods from :class:`IOBase` and
+ :class:`RawIOBase`, :class:`FileIO` provides the following data
+ attributes and methods:
+
+ .. attribute:: mode
+
+ The mode as given in the constructor.
+
+ .. attribute:: name
+
+ The file name. This is the file descriptor of the file when no name is
+ given in the constructor.
+
+
+Buffered Streams
+----------------
+
+Buffered I/O streams provide a higher-level interface to an I/O device
+than raw I/O does.
+
+.. class:: BytesIO([initial_bytes])
+
+ A stream implementation using an in-memory bytes buffer. It inherits
+ :class:`BufferedIOBase`.
+
+ The argument *initial_bytes* is an optional initial :class:`bytes`.
+
+ :class:`BytesIO` provides or overrides these methods in addition to those
+ from :class:`BufferedIOBase` and :class:`IOBase`:
+
+ .. method:: getvalue()
+
+ Return ``bytes`` containing the entire contents of the buffer.
+
+ .. method:: read1()
+
+ In :class:`BytesIO`, this is the same as :meth:`read`.
+
+
+.. class:: BufferedReader(raw, buffer_size=DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE)
+
+ A buffer providing higher-level access to a readable, sequential
+ :class:`RawIOBase` object. It inherits :class:`BufferedIOBase`.
+ When reading data from this object, a larger amount of data may be
+ requested from the underlying raw stream, and kept in an internal buffer.
+ The buffered data can then be returned directly on subsequent reads.
+
+ The constructor creates a :class:`BufferedReader` for the given readable
+ *raw* stream and *buffer_size*. If *buffer_size* is omitted,
+ :data:`DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE` is used.
+
+ :class:`BufferedReader` provides or overrides these methods in addition to
+ those from :class:`BufferedIOBase` and :class:`IOBase`:
+
+ .. method:: peek([n])
+
+ Return bytes from the stream without advancing the position. At most one
+ single read on the raw stream is done to satisfy the call. The number of
+ bytes returned may be less or more than requested.
+
+ .. method:: read([n])
+
+ Read and return *n* bytes, or if *n* is not given or negative, until EOF
+ or if the read call would block in non-blocking mode.
+
+ .. method:: read1(n)
+
+ Read and return up to *n* bytes with only one call on the raw stream. If
+ at least one byte is buffered, only buffered bytes are returned.
+ Otherwise, one raw stream read call is made.
+
+
+.. class:: BufferedWriter(raw, buffer_size=DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE)
+
+ A buffer providing higher-level access to a writeable, sequential
+ :class:`RawIOBase` object. It inherits :class:`BufferedIOBase`.
+ When writing to this object, data is normally held into an internal
+ buffer. The buffer will be written out to the underlying :class:`RawIOBase`
+ object under various conditions, including:
+
+ * when the buffer gets too small for all pending data;
+ * when :meth:`flush()` is called;
+ * when a :meth:`seek()` is requested (for :class:`BufferedRandom` objects);
+ * when the :class:`BufferedWriter` object is closed or destroyed.
+
+ The constructor creates a :class:`BufferedWriter` for the given writeable
+ *raw* stream. If the *buffer_size* is not given, it defaults to
+ :data:`DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE`.
+
+ A third argument, *max_buffer_size*, is supported, but unused and deprecated.
+
+ :class:`BufferedWriter` provides or overrides these methods in addition to
+ those from :class:`BufferedIOBase` and :class:`IOBase`:
+
+ .. method:: flush()
+
+ Force bytes held in the buffer into the raw stream. A
+ :exc:`BlockingIOError` should be raised if the raw stream blocks.
+
+ .. method:: write(b)
+
+ Write the bytes or bytearray object, *b* and return the number of bytes
+ written. When in non-blocking mode, a :exc:`BlockingIOError` is raised
+ if the buffer needs to be written out but the raw stream blocks.
+
+
+.. class:: BufferedRandom(raw, buffer_size=DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE)
+
+ A buffered interface to random access streams. It inherits
+ :class:`BufferedReader` and :class:`BufferedWriter`, and further supports
+ :meth:`seek` and :meth:`tell` functionality.
+
+ The constructor creates a reader and writer for a seekable raw stream, given
+ in the first argument. If the *buffer_size* is omitted it defaults to
+ :data:`DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE`.
+
+ A third argument, *max_buffer_size*, is supported, but unused and deprecated.
+
+ :class:`BufferedRandom` is capable of anything :class:`BufferedReader` or
+ :class:`BufferedWriter` can do.
+
+
+.. class:: BufferedRWPair(reader, writer, buffer_size=DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE)
+
+ A buffered I/O object combining two unidirectional :class:`RawIOBase`
+ objects -- one readable, the other writeable -- into a single bidirectional
+ endpoint. It inherits :class:`BufferedIOBase`.
+
+ *reader* and *writer* are :class:`RawIOBase` objects that are readable and
+ writeable respectively. If the *buffer_size* is omitted it defaults to
+ :data:`DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE`.
+
+ A fourth argument, *max_buffer_size*, is supported, but unused and
+ deprecated.
+
+ :class:`BufferedRWPair` implements all of :class:`BufferedIOBase`\'s methods
+ except for :meth:`~BufferedIOBase.detach`, which raises
+ :exc:`UnsupportedOperation`.
+
+ .. warning::
+ :class:`BufferedRWPair` does not attempt to synchronize accesses to
+ its underlying raw streams. You should not pass it the same object
+ as reader and writer; use :class:`BufferedRandom` instead.
+
+
+Text I/O
+--------
+
+.. class:: TextIOBase
+
+ Base class for text streams. This class provides an unicode character
+ and line based interface to stream I/O. There is no :meth:`readinto`
+ method because Python's :class:`unicode` strings are immutable.
+ It inherits :class:`IOBase`. There is no public constructor.
+
+ :class:`TextIOBase` provides or overrides these data attributes and
+ methods in addition to those from :class:`IOBase`:
+
+ .. attribute:: encoding
+
+ The name of the encoding used to decode the stream's bytes into
+ strings, and to encode strings into bytes.
+
+ .. attribute:: errors
+
+ The error setting of the decoder or encoder.
+
+ .. attribute:: newlines
+
+ A string, a tuple of strings, or ``None``, indicating the newlines
+ translated so far. Depending on the implementation and the initial
+ constructor flags, this may not be available.
+
+ .. attribute:: buffer
+
+ The underlying binary buffer (a :class:`BufferedIOBase` instance) that
+ :class:`TextIOBase` deals with. This is not part of the
+ :class:`TextIOBase` API and may not exist on some implementations.
+
+ .. method:: detach()
+
+ Separate the underlying binary buffer from the :class:`TextIOBase` and
+ return it.
+
+ After the underlying buffer has been detached, the :class:`TextIOBase` is
+ in an unusable state.
+
+ Some :class:`TextIOBase` implementations, like :class:`StringIO`, may not
+ have the concept of an underlying buffer and calling this method will
+ raise :exc:`UnsupportedOperation`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+ .. method:: read(n)
+
+ Read and return at most *n* characters from the stream as a single
+ :class:`unicode`. If *n* is negative or ``None``, reads until EOF.
+
+ .. method:: readline(limit=-1)
+
+ Read until newline or EOF and return a single ``unicode``. If the
+ stream is already at EOF, an empty string is returned.
+
+ If *limit* is specified, at most *limit* characters will be read.
+
+ .. method:: seek(offset, whence=SEEK_SET)
+
+ Change the stream position to the given *offset*. Behaviour depends
+ on the *whence* parameter:
+
+ * :data:`SEEK_SET` or ``0``: seek from the start of the stream
+ (the default); *offset* must either be a number returned by
+ :meth:`TextIOBase.tell`, or zero. Any other *offset* value
+ produces undefined behaviour.
+ * :data:`SEEK_CUR` or ``1``: "seek" to the current position;
+ *offset* must be zero, which is a no-operation (all other values
+ are unsupported).
+ * :data:`SEEK_END` or ``2``: seek to the end of the stream;
+ *offset* must be zero (all other values are unsupported).
+
+ Return the new absolute position as an opaque number.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+ The ``SEEK_*`` constants.
+
+ .. method:: tell()
+
+ Return the current stream position as an opaque number. The number
+ does not usually represent a number of bytes in the underlying
+ binary storage.
+
+ .. method:: write(s)
+
+ Write the :class:`unicode` string *s* to the stream and return the
+ number of characters written.
+
+
+.. class:: TextIOWrapper(buffer, encoding=None, errors=None, newline=None, line_buffering=False)
+
+ A buffered text stream over a :class:`BufferedIOBase` binary stream.
+ It inherits :class:`TextIOBase`.
+
+ *encoding* gives the name of the encoding that the stream will be decoded or
+ encoded with. It defaults to :func:`locale.getpreferredencoding`.
+
+ *errors* is an optional string that specifies how encoding and decoding
+ errors are to be handled. Pass ``'strict'`` to raise a :exc:`ValueError`
+ exception if there is an encoding error (the default of ``None`` has the same
+ effect), or pass ``'ignore'`` to ignore errors. (Note that ignoring encoding
+ errors can lead to data loss.) ``'replace'`` causes a replacement marker
+ (such as ``'?'``) to be inserted where there is malformed data. When
+ writing, ``'xmlcharrefreplace'`` (replace with the appropriate XML character
+ reference) or ``'backslashreplace'`` (replace with backslashed escape
+ sequences) can be used. Any other error handling name that has been
+ registered with :func:`codecs.register_error` is also valid.
+
+ .. index::
+ single: universal newlines; io.TextIOWrapper class
+
+ *newline* controls how line endings are handled. It can be ``None``,
+ ``''``, ``'\n'``, ``'\r'``, and ``'\r\n'``. It works as follows:
+
+ * On input, if *newline* is ``None``, :term:`universal newlines` mode is
+ enabled. Lines in the input can end in ``'\n'``, ``'\r'``, or ``'\r\n'``,
+ and these are translated into ``'\n'`` before being returned to the
+ caller. If it is ``''``, universal newlines mode is enabled, but line
+ endings are returned to the caller untranslated. If it has any of the
+ other legal values, input lines are only terminated by the given string,
+ and the line ending is returned to the caller untranslated.
+
+ * On output, if *newline* is ``None``, any ``'\n'`` characters written are
+ translated to the system default line separator, :data:`os.linesep`. If
+ *newline* is ``''``, no translation takes place. If *newline* is any of
+ the other legal values, any ``'\n'`` characters written are translated to
+ the given string.
+
+ If *line_buffering* is ``True``, :meth:`flush` is implied when a call to
+ write contains a newline character.
+
+ :class:`TextIOWrapper` provides one attribute in addition to those of
+ :class:`TextIOBase` and its parents:
+
+ .. attribute:: line_buffering
+
+ Whether line buffering is enabled.
+
+
+.. class:: StringIO(initial_value=u'', newline=None)
+
+ An in-memory stream for unicode text. It inherits :class:`TextIOWrapper`.
+
+ The initial value of the buffer (an empty unicode string by default) can
+ be set by providing *initial_value*. The *newline* argument works like
+ that of :class:`TextIOWrapper`. The default is to do no newline
+ translation.
+
+ :class:`StringIO` provides this method in addition to those from
+ :class:`TextIOWrapper` and its parents:
+
+ .. method:: getvalue()
+
+ Return a ``unicode`` containing the entire contents of the buffer at any
+ time before the :class:`StringIO` object's :meth:`close` method is
+ called.
+
+ Example usage::
+
+ import io
+
+ output = io.StringIO()
+ output.write(u'First line.\n')
+ output.write(u'Second line.\n')
+
+ # Retrieve file contents -- this will be
+ # u'First line.\nSecond line.\n'
+ contents = output.getvalue()
+
+ # Close object and discard memory buffer --
+ # .getvalue() will now raise an exception.
+ output.close()
+
+
+.. index::
+ single: universal newlines; io.IncrementalNewlineDecoder class
+
+.. class:: IncrementalNewlineDecoder
+
+ A helper codec that decodes newlines for :term:`universal newlines` mode.
+ It inherits :class:`codecs.IncrementalDecoder`.
+
+
+Advanced topics
+---------------
+
+Here we will discuss several advanced topics pertaining to the concrete
+I/O implementations described above.
+
+Performance
+^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Binary I/O
+""""""""""
+
+By reading and writing only large chunks of data even when the user asks
+for a single byte, buffered I/O is designed to hide any inefficiency in
+calling and executing the operating system's unbuffered I/O routines. The
+gain will vary very much depending on the OS and the kind of I/O which is
+performed (for example, on some contemporary OSes such as Linux, unbuffered
+disk I/O can be as fast as buffered I/O). The bottom line, however, is
+that buffered I/O will offer you predictable performance regardless of the
+platform and the backing device. Therefore, it is most always preferable to
+use buffered I/O rather than unbuffered I/O.
+
+Text I/O
+""""""""
+
+Text I/O over a binary storage (such as a file) is significantly slower than
+binary I/O over the same storage, because it implies conversions from
+unicode to binary data using a character codec. This can become noticeable
+if you handle huge amounts of text data (for example very large log files).
+Also, :meth:`TextIOWrapper.tell` and :meth:`TextIOWrapper.seek` are both
+quite slow due to the reconstruction algorithm used.
+
+:class:`StringIO`, however, is a native in-memory unicode container and will
+exhibit similar speed to :class:`BytesIO`.
+
+Multi-threading
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+:class:`FileIO` objects are thread-safe to the extent that the operating
+system calls (such as ``read(2)`` under Unix) they are wrapping are thread-safe
+too.
+
+Binary buffered objects (instances of :class:`BufferedReader`,
+:class:`BufferedWriter`, :class:`BufferedRandom` and :class:`BufferedRWPair`)
+protect their internal structures using a lock; it is therefore safe to call
+them from multiple threads at once.
+
+:class:`TextIOWrapper` objects are not thread-safe.
+
+Reentrancy
+^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Binary buffered objects (instances of :class:`BufferedReader`,
+:class:`BufferedWriter`, :class:`BufferedRandom` and :class:`BufferedRWPair`)
+are not reentrant. While reentrant calls will not happen in normal situations,
+they can arise if you are doing I/O in a :mod:`signal` handler. If it is
+attempted to enter a buffered object again while already being accessed
+*from the same thread*, then a :exc:`RuntimeError` is raised.
+
+The above implicitly extends to text files, since the :func:`open()`
+function will wrap a buffered object inside a :class:`TextIOWrapper`. This
+includes standard streams and therefore affects the built-in function
+:func:`print()` as well.

+:mod:`itertools` --- Functions creating iterators for efficient looping
+=======================================================================
+
+.. module:: itertools
+ :synopsis: Functions creating iterators for efficient looping.
+.. moduleauthor:: Raymond Hettinger <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Raymond Hettinger <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. testsetup::
+
+ from itertools import *
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+This module implements a number of :term:`iterator` building blocks inspired
+by constructs from APL, Haskell, and SML. Each has been recast in a form
+suitable for Python.
+
+The module standardizes a core set of fast, memory efficient tools that are
+useful by themselves or in combination. Together, they form an "iterator
+algebra" making it possible to construct specialized tools succinctly and
+efficiently in pure Python.
+
+For instance, SML provides a tabulation tool: ``tabulate(f)`` which produces a
+sequence ``f(0), f(1), ...``. The same effect can be achieved in Python
+by combining :func:`imap` and :func:`count` to form ``imap(f, count())``.
+
+These tools and their built-in counterparts also work well with the high-speed
+functions in the :mod:`operator` module. For example, the multiplication
+operator can be mapped across two vectors to form an efficient dot-product:
+``sum(imap(operator.mul, vector1, vector2))``.

+
+Itertool functions
+------------------
+
+The following module functions all construct and return iterators. Some provide
+streams of infinite length, so they should only be accessed by functions or
+loops that truncate the stream.
+
+
+.. function:: chain(*iterables)
+
+ Make an iterator that returns elements from the first iterable until it is
+ exhausted, then proceeds to the next iterable, until all of the iterables are
+ exhausted. Used for treating consecutive sequences as a single sequence.
+ Equivalent to::
+
+ def chain(*iterables):
+ # chain('ABC', 'DEF') --> A B C D E F
+ for it in iterables:
+ for element in it:
+ yield element
+
+
+.. classmethod:: chain.from_iterable(iterable)
+
+ Alternate constructor for :func:`chain`. Gets chained inputs from a
+ single iterable argument that is evaluated lazily. Roughly equivalent to::
+
+ def from_iterable(iterables):
+ # chain.from_iterable(['ABC', 'DEF']) --> A B C D E F
+ for it in iterables:
+ for element in it:
+ yield element
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: combinations(iterable, r)
+
+ Return *r* length subsequences of elements from the input *iterable*.
+
+ Combinations are emitted in lexicographic sort order. So, if the
+ input *iterable* is sorted, the combination tuples will be produced
+ in sorted order.
+
+ Elements are treated as unique based on their position, not on their
+ value. So if the input elements are unique, there will be no repeat
+ values in each combination.
+
+ Equivalent to::
+
+ def combinations(iterable, r):
+ # combinations('ABCD', 2) --> AB AC AD BC BD CD
+ # combinations(range(4), 3) --> 012 013 023 123
+ pool = tuple(iterable)
+ n = len(pool)
+ if r > n:
+ return
+ indices = range(r)
+ yield tuple(pool[i] for i in indices)
+ while True:
+ for i in reversed(range(r)):
+ if indices[i] != i + n - r:
+ break
+ else:
+ return
+ indices[i] += 1
+ for j in range(i+1, r):
+ indices[j] = indices[j-1] + 1
+ yield tuple(pool[i] for i in indices)
+
+ The code for :func:`combinations` can be also expressed as a subsequence
+ of :func:`permutations` after filtering entries where the elements are not
+ in sorted order (according to their position in the input pool)::
+
+ def combinations(iterable, r):
+ pool = tuple(iterable)
+ n = len(pool)
+ for indices in permutations(range(n), r):
+ if sorted(indices) == list(indices):
+ yield tuple(pool[i] for i in indices)
+
+ The number of items returned is ``n! / r! / (n-r)!`` when ``0 <= r <= n``
+ or zero when ``r > n``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+.. function:: combinations_with_replacement(iterable, r)
+
+ Return *r* length subsequences of elements from the input *iterable*
+ allowing individual elements to be repeated more than once.
+
+ Combinations are emitted in lexicographic sort order. So, if the
+ input *iterable* is sorted, the combination tuples will be produced
+ in sorted order.
+
+ Elements are treated as unique based on their position, not on their
+ value. So if the input elements are unique, the generated combinations
+ will also be unique.
+
+ Equivalent to::
+
+ def combinations_with_replacement(iterable, r):
+ # combinations_with_replacement('ABC', 2) --> AA AB AC BB BC CC
+ pool = tuple(iterable)
+ n = len(pool)
+ if not n and r:
+ return
+ indices = [0] * r
+ yield tuple(pool[i] for i in indices)
+ while True:
+ for i in reversed(range(r)):
+ if indices[i] != n - 1:
+ break
+ else:
+ return
+ indices[i:] = [indices[i] + 1] * (r - i)
+ yield tuple(pool[i] for i in indices)
+
+ The code for :func:`combinations_with_replacement` can be also expressed as
+ a subsequence of :func:`product` after filtering entries where the elements
+ are not in sorted order (according to their position in the input pool)::
+
+ def combinations_with_replacement(iterable, r):
+ pool = tuple(iterable)
+ n = len(pool)
+ for indices in product(range(n), repeat=r):
+ if sorted(indices) == list(indices):
+ yield tuple(pool[i] for i in indices)
+
+ The number of items returned is ``(n+r-1)! / r! / (n-1)!`` when ``n > 0``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+.. function:: compress(data, selectors)
+
+ Make an iterator that filters elements from *data* returning only those that
+ have a corresponding element in *selectors* that evaluates to ``True``.
+ Stops when either the *data* or *selectors* iterables has been exhausted.
+ Equivalent to::
+
+ def compress(data, selectors):
+ # compress('ABCDEF', [1,0,1,0,1,1]) --> A C E F
+ return (d for d, s in izip(data, selectors) if s)
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+.. function:: count(start=0, step=1)
+
+ Make an iterator that returns evenly spaced values starting with *n*. Often
+ used as an argument to :func:`imap` to generate consecutive data points.
+ Also, used with :func:`izip` to add sequence numbers. Equivalent to::
+
+ def count(start=0, step=1):
+ # count(10) --> 10 11 12 13 14 ...
+ # count(2.5, 0.5) -> 2.5 3.0 3.5 ...
+ n = start
+ while True:
+ yield n
+ n += step
+
+ When counting with floating point numbers, better accuracy can sometimes be
+ achieved by substituting multiplicative code such as: ``(start + step * i
+ for i in count())``.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ added *step* argument and allowed non-integer arguments.
+
+.. function:: cycle(iterable)
+
+ Make an iterator returning elements from the iterable and saving a copy of each.
+ When the iterable is exhausted, return elements from the saved copy. Repeats
+ indefinitely. Equivalent to::
+
+ def cycle(iterable):
+ # cycle('ABCD') --> A B C D A B C D A B C D ...
+ saved = []
+ for element in iterable:
+ yield element
+ saved.append(element)
+ while saved:
+ for element in saved:
+ yield element
+
+ Note, this member of the toolkit may require significant auxiliary storage
+ (depending on the length of the iterable).
+
+
+.. function:: dropwhile(predicate, iterable)
+
+ Make an iterator that drops elements from the iterable as long as the predicate
+ is true; afterwards, returns every element. Note, the iterator does not produce
+ *any* output until the predicate first becomes false, so it may have a lengthy
+ start-up time. Equivalent to::
+
+ def dropwhile(predicate, iterable):
+ # dropwhile(lambda x: x<5, [1,4,6,4,1]) --> 6 4 1
+ iterable = iter(iterable)
+ for x in iterable:
+ if not predicate(x):
+ yield x
+ break
+ for x in iterable:
+ yield x
+
+
+.. function:: groupby(iterable[, key])
+
+ Make an iterator that returns consecutive keys and groups from the *iterable*.
+ The *key* is a function computing a key value for each element. If not
+ specified or is ``None``, *key* defaults to an identity function and returns
+ the element unchanged. Generally, the iterable needs to already be sorted on
+ the same key function.
+
+ The operation of :func:`groupby` is similar to the ``uniq`` filter in Unix. It
+ generates a break or new group every time the value of the key function changes
+ (which is why it is usually necessary to have sorted the data using the same key
+ function). That behavior differs from SQL's GROUP BY which aggregates common
+ elements regardless of their input order.
+
+ The returned group is itself an iterator that shares the underlying iterable
+ with :func:`groupby`. Because the source is shared, when the :func:`groupby`
+ object is advanced, the previous group is no longer visible. So, if that data
+ is needed later, it should be stored as a list::
+
+ groups = []
+ uniquekeys = []
+ data = sorted(data, key=keyfunc)
+ for k, g in groupby(data, keyfunc):
+ groups.append(list(g)) # Store group iterator as a list
+ uniquekeys.append(k)
+
+ :func:`groupby` is equivalent to::
+
+ class groupby(object):
+ # [k for k, g in groupby('AAAABBBCCDAABBB')] --> A B C D A B
+ # [list(g) for k, g in groupby('AAAABBBCCD')] --> AAAA BBB CC D
+ def __init__(self, iterable, key=None):
+ if key is None:
+ key = lambda x: x
+ self.keyfunc = key
+ self.it = iter(iterable)
+ self.tgtkey = self.currkey = self.currvalue = object()
+ def __iter__(self):
+ return self
+ def next(self):
+ while self.currkey == self.tgtkey:
+ self.currvalue = next(self.it) # Exit on StopIteration
+ self.currkey = self.keyfunc(self.currvalue)
+ self.tgtkey = self.currkey
+ return (self.currkey, self._grouper(self.tgtkey))
+ def _grouper(self, tgtkey):
+ while self.currkey == tgtkey:
+ yield self.currvalue
+ self.currvalue = next(self.it) # Exit on StopIteration
+ self.currkey = self.keyfunc(self.currvalue)
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+.. function:: ifilter(predicate, iterable)
+
+ Make an iterator that filters elements from iterable returning only those for
+ which the predicate is ``True``. If *predicate* is ``None``, return the items
+ that are true. Equivalent to::
+
+ def ifilter(predicate, iterable):
+ # ifilter(lambda x: x%2, range(10)) --> 1 3 5 7 9
+ if predicate is None:
+ predicate = bool
+ for x in iterable:
+ if predicate(x):
+ yield x
+
+
+.. function:: ifilterfalse(predicate, iterable)
+
+ Make an iterator that filters elements from iterable returning only those for
+ which the predicate is ``False``. If *predicate* is ``None``, return the items
+ that are false. Equivalent to::
+
+ def ifilterfalse(predicate, iterable):
+ # ifilterfalse(lambda x: x%2, range(10)) --> 0 2 4 6 8
+ if predicate is None:
+ predicate = bool
+ for x in iterable:
+ if not predicate(x):
+ yield x
+
+
+.. function:: imap(function, *iterables)
+
+ Make an iterator that computes the function using arguments from each of the
+ iterables. If *function* is set to ``None``, then :func:`imap` returns the
+ arguments as a tuple. Like :func:`map` but stops when the shortest iterable is
+ exhausted instead of filling in ``None`` for shorter iterables. The reason for
+ the difference is that infinite iterator arguments are typically an error for
+ :func:`map` (because the output is fully evaluated) but represent a common and
+ useful way of supplying arguments to :func:`imap`. Equivalent to::

+
+ Make an iterator that returns selected elements from the iterable. If *start* is
+ non-zero, then elements from the iterable are skipped until start is reached.
+ Afterward, elements are returned consecutively unless *step* is set higher than
+ one which results in items being skipped. If *stop* is ``None``, then iteration
+ continues until the iterator is exhausted, if at all; otherwise, it stops at the
+ specified position. Unlike regular slicing, :func:`islice` does not support
+ negative values for *start*, *stop*, or *step*. Can be used to extract related
+ fields from data where the internal structure has been flattened (for example, a
+ multi-line report may list a name field on every third line). Equivalent to::
+
+ def islice(iterable, *args):
+ # islice('ABCDEFG', 2) --> A B

+.. function:: izip(*iterables)
+
+ Make an iterator that aggregates elements from each of the iterables. Like
+ :func:`zip` except that it returns an iterator instead of a list. Used for

+ iterators = map(iter, iterables)
+ while iterators:

+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ When no iterables are specified, returns a zero length iterator instead of
+ raising a :exc:`TypeError` exception.
+
+ The left-to-right evaluation order of the iterables is guaranteed. This
+ makes possible an idiom for clustering a data series into n-length groups
+ using ``izip(*[iter(s)]*n)``.
+
+ :func:`izip` should only be used with unequal length inputs when you don't
+ care about trailing, unmatched values from the longer iterables. If those
+ values are important, use :func:`izip_longest` instead.
+
+
+.. function:: izip_longest(*iterables[, fillvalue])
+
+ Make an iterator that aggregates elements from each of the iterables. If the
+ iterables are of uneven length, missing values are filled-in with *fillvalue*.
+ Iteration continues until the longest iterable is exhausted. Equivalent to::
+
+ class ZipExhausted(Exception):
+ pass
+
+ def izip_longest(*args, **kwds):
+ # izip_longest('ABCD', 'xy', fillvalue='-') --> Ax By C- D-

+ try:
+ while iterators:
+ yield tuple(map(next, iterators))
+ except ZipExhausted:
+ pass
+
+ If one of the iterables is potentially infinite, then the
+ :func:`izip_longest` function should be wrapped with something that limits
+ the number of calls (for example :func:`islice` or :func:`takewhile`). If
+ not specified, *fillvalue* defaults to ``None``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+.. function:: permutations(iterable[, r])
+
+ Return successive *r* length permutations of elements in the *iterable*.
+
+ If *r* is not specified or is ``None``, then *r* defaults to the length
+ of the *iterable* and all possible full-length permutations
+ are generated.
+
+ Permutations are emitted in lexicographic sort order. So, if the
+ input *iterable* is sorted, the permutation tuples will be produced
+ in sorted order.
+
+ Elements are treated as unique based on their position, not on their
+ value. So if the input elements are unique, there will be no repeat
+ values in each permutation.
+
+ Equivalent to::
+
+ def permutations(iterable, r=None):
+ # permutations('ABCD', 2) --> AB AC AD BA BC BD CA CB CD DA DB DC
+ # permutations(range(3)) --> 012 021 102 120 201 210

+ indices[i], indices[-j] = indices[-j], indices[i]
+ yield tuple(pool[i] for i in indices[:r])
+ break

+
+ The code for :func:`permutations` can be also expressed as a subsequence of
+ :func:`product`, filtered to exclude entries with repeated elements (those
+ from the same position in the input pool)::
+
+ def permutations(iterable, r=None):
+ pool = tuple(iterable)
+ n = len(pool)
+ r = n if r is None else r
+ for indices in product(range(n), repeat=r):
+ if len(set(indices)) == r:
+ yield tuple(pool[i] for i in indices)
+
+ The number of items returned is ``n! / (n-r)!`` when ``0 <= r <= n``
+ or zero when ``r > n``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+.. function:: product(*iterables[, repeat])
+
+ Cartesian product of input iterables.
+
+ Equivalent to nested for-loops in a generator expression. For example,
+ ``product(A, B)`` returns the same as ``((x,y) for x in A for y in B)``.
+
+ The nested loops cycle like an odometer with the rightmost element advancing
+ on every iteration. This pattern creates a lexicographic ordering so that if
+ the input's iterables are sorted, the product tuples are emitted in sorted
+ order.
+
+ To compute the product of an iterable with itself, specify the number of
+ repetitions with the optional *repeat* keyword argument. For example,
+ ``product(A, repeat=4)`` means the same as ``product(A, A, A, A)``.
+
+ This function is equivalent to the following code, except that the
+ actual implementation does not build up intermediate results in memory::
+
+ def product(*args, **kwds):
+ # product('ABCD', 'xy') --> Ax Ay Bx By Cx Cy Dx Dy
+ # product(range(2), repeat=3) --> 000 001 010 011 100 101 110 111
+ pools = map(tuple, args) * kwds.get('repeat', 1)
+ result = [[]]
+ for pool in pools:
+ result = [x+[y] for x in result for y in pool]
+ for prod in result:
+ yield tuple(prod)
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+.. function:: repeat(object[, times])
+
+ Make an iterator that returns *object* over and over again. Runs indefinitely
+ unless the *times* argument is specified. Used as argument to :func:`imap` for
+ invariant function parameters. Also used with :func:`izip` to create constant
+ fields in a tuple record. Equivalent to::
+
+ def repeat(object, times=None):
+ # repeat(10, 3) --> 10 10 10
+ if times is None:
+ while True:
+ yield object
+ else:
+ for i in xrange(times):
+ yield object
+
+ A common use for *repeat* is to supply a stream of constant values to *imap*
+ or *zip*::
+
+ >>> list(imap(pow, xrange(10), repeat(2)))
+ [0, 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81]
+
+.. function:: starmap(function, iterable)
+
+ Make an iterator that computes the function using arguments obtained from
+ the iterable. Used instead of :func:`imap` when argument parameters are already
+ grouped in tuples from a single iterable (the data has been "pre-zipped"). The
+ difference between :func:`imap` and :func:`starmap` parallels the distinction
+ between ``function(a,b)`` and ``function(*c)``. Equivalent to::
+
+ def starmap(function, iterable):
+ # starmap(pow, [(2,5), (3,2), (10,3)]) --> 32 9 1000
+ for args in iterable:
+ yield function(*args)
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ Previously, :func:`starmap` required the function arguments to be tuples.
+ Now, any iterable is allowed.
+
+.. function:: takewhile(predicate, iterable)
+
+ Make an iterator that returns elements from the iterable as long as the
+ predicate is true. Equivalent to::
+
+ def takewhile(predicate, iterable):
+ # takewhile(lambda x: x<5, [1,4,6,4,1]) --> 1 4
+ for x in iterable:
+ if predicate(x):
+ yield x
+ else:
+ break
+
+
+.. function:: tee(iterable[, n=2])
+
+ Return *n* independent iterators from a single iterable. Equivalent to::
+
+ def tee(iterable, n=2):
+ it = iter(iterable)
+ deques = [collections.deque() for i in range(n)]
+ def gen(mydeque):
+ while True:
+ if not mydeque: # when the local deque is empty
+ newval = next(it) # fetch a new value and
+ for d in deques: # load it to all the deques
+ d.append(newval)
+ yield mydeque.popleft()
+ return tuple(gen(d) for d in deques)
+
+ Once :func:`tee` has made a split, the original *iterable* should not be
+ used anywhere else; otherwise, the *iterable* could get advanced without
+ the tee objects being informed.
+
+ This itertool may require significant auxiliary storage (depending on how
+ much temporary data needs to be stored). In general, if one iterator uses
+ most or all of the data before another iterator starts, it is faster to use
+ :func:`list` instead of :func:`tee`.

+
+Recipes
+-------
+
+This section shows recipes for creating an extended toolset using the existing
+itertools as building blocks.
+
+The extended tools offer the same high performance as the underlying toolset.
+The superior memory performance is kept by processing elements one at a time
+rather than bringing the whole iterable into memory all at once. Code volume is
+kept small by linking the tools together in a functional style which helps
+eliminate temporary variables. High speed is retained by preferring
+"vectorized" building blocks over the use of for-loops and :term:`generator`\s

+
+.. deprecated:: 2.6
+ The :mod:`jpeg` module has been removed in Python 3.
+
+
+
+.. index:: single: Independent JPEG Group
+
+The module :mod:`jpeg` provides access to the jpeg compressor and decompressor
+written by the Independent JPEG Group (IJG). JPEG is a standard for compressing
+pictures; it is defined in ISO 10918. For details on JPEG or the Independent
+JPEG Group software refer to the JPEG standard or the documentation provided
+with the software.
+
+.. index::
+ single: Python Imaging Library
+ single: PIL (the Python Imaging Library)
+ single: Lundh, Fredrik
+
+A portable interface to JPEG image files is available with the Python Imaging
+Library (PIL) by Fredrik Lundh. Information on PIL is available at
+http://www.pythonware.com/products/pil/.
+
+The :mod:`jpeg` module defines an exception and some functions.
+
+
+.. exception:: error
+
+ Exception raised by :func:`compress` and :func:`decompress` in case of errors.
+
+
+.. function:: compress(data, w, h, b)
+
+ .. index:: single: JFIF
+
+ Treat data as a pixmap of width *w* and height *h*, with *b* bytes per pixel.
+ The data is in SGI GL order, so the first pixel is in the lower-left corner.
+ This means that :func:`gl.lrectread` return data can immediately be passed to
+ :func:`compress`. Currently only 1 byte and 4 byte pixels are allowed, the
+ former being treated as greyscale and the latter as RGB color. :func:`compress`
+ returns a string that contains the compressed picture, in JFIF format.
+
+
+.. function:: decompress(data)
+
+ .. index:: single: JFIF
+
+ Data is a string containing a picture in JFIF format. It returns a tuple
+ ``(data, width, height, bytesperpixel)``. Again, the data is suitable to pass
+ to :func:`gl.lrectwrite`.
+
+
+.. function:: setoption(name, value)
+
+ Set various options. Subsequent :func:`compress` and :func:`decompress` calls
+ will use these options. The following options are available:
+
+ +-----------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | Option | Effect |
+ +=================+=============================================+
+ | ``'forcegray'`` | Force output to be grayscale, even if input |
+ | | is RGB. |
+ +-----------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'quality'`` | Set the quality of the compressed image to |
+ | | a value between ``0`` and ``100`` (default |
+ | | is ``75``). This only affects compression. |
+ +-----------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'optimize'`` | Perform Huffman table optimization. Takes |
+ | | longer, but results in smaller compressed |
+ | | image. This only affects compression. |
+ +-----------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'smooth'`` | Perform inter-block smoothing on |
+ | | uncompressed image. Only useful for low- |
+ | | quality images. This only affects |
+ | | decompression. |

+ If *skipkeys* is ``True`` (default: ``False``), then dict keys that are not
+ of a basic type (:class:`str`, :class:`unicode`, :class:`int`, :class:`long`,
+ :class:`float`, :class:`bool`, ``None``) will be skipped instead of raising a
+ :exc:`TypeError`.
+
+ If *ensure_ascii* is ``True`` (the default), all non-ASCII characters in the
+ output are escaped with ``\uXXXX`` sequences, and the result is a
+ :class:`str` instance consisting of ASCII characters only. If
+ *ensure_ascii* is ``False``, some chunks written to *fp* may be
+ :class:`unicode` instances. This usually happens because the input contains
+ unicode strings or the *encoding* parameter is used. Unless ``fp.write()``
+ explicitly understands :class:`unicode` (as in :func:`codecs.getwriter`)
+ this is likely to cause an error.
+
+ If *check_circular* is ``False`` (default: ``True``), then the circular
+ reference check for container types will be skipped and a circular reference
+ will result in an :exc:`OverflowError` (or worse).
+
+ If *allow_nan* is ``False`` (default: ``True``), then it will be a
+ :exc:`ValueError` to serialize out of range :class:`float` values (``nan``,
+ ``inf``, ``-inf``) in strict compliance of the JSON specification, instead of
+ using the JavaScript equivalents (``NaN``, ``Infinity``, ``-Infinity``).
+
+ If *indent* is a non-negative integer, then JSON array elements and object
+ members will be pretty-printed with that indent level. An indent level of 0,
+ or negative, will only insert newlines. ``None`` (the default) selects the
+ most compact representation.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Since the default item separator is ``', '``, the output might include
+ trailing whitespace when *indent* is specified. You can use
+ ``separators=(',', ': ')`` to avoid this.
+
+ If *separators* is an ``(item_separator, dict_separator)`` tuple, then it
+ will be used instead of the default ``(', ', ': ')`` separators. ``(',',
+ ':')`` is the most compact JSON representation.
+
+ *encoding* is the character encoding for str instances, default is UTF-8.
+
+ *default(obj)* is a function that should return a serializable version of
+ *obj* or raise :exc:`TypeError`. The default simply raises :exc:`TypeError`.
+
+ If *sort_keys* is ``True`` (default: ``False``), then the output of
+ dictionaries will be sorted by key.
+
+ To use a custom :class:`JSONEncoder` subclass (e.g. one that overrides the
+ :meth:`default` method to serialize additional types), specify it with the
+ *cls* kwarg; otherwise :class:`JSONEncoder` is used.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Unlike :mod:`pickle` and :mod:`marshal`, JSON is not a framed protocol so
+ trying to serialize more objects with repeated calls to :func:`dump` and
+ the same *fp* will result in an invalid JSON file.
+
+.. function:: dumps(obj, skipkeys=False, ensure_ascii=True, \
+ check_circular=True, allow_nan=True, cls=None, \
+ indent=None, separators=None, encoding="utf-8", \
+ default=None, sort_keys=False, **kw)
+
+ Serialize *obj* to a JSON formatted :class:`str` using this :ref:`conversion
+ table <py-to-json-table>`. If *ensure_ascii* is ``False``, the result may
+ contain non-ASCII characters and the return value may be a :class:`unicode`
+ instance.
+
+ The arguments have the same meaning as in :func:`dump`.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Keys in key/value pairs of JSON are always of the type :class:`str`. When
+ a dictionary is converted into JSON, all the keys of the dictionary are
+ coerced to strings. As a result of this, if a dictionary is converted
+ into JSON and then back into a dictionary, the dictionary may not equal
+ the original one. That is, ``loads(dumps(x)) != x`` if x has non-string
+ keys.
+
+.. function:: load(fp[, encoding[, cls[, object_hook[, parse_float[, parse_int[, parse_constant[, object_pairs_hook[, **kw]]]]]]]])
+
+ Deserialize *fp* (a ``.read()``-supporting :term:`file-like object`
+ containing a JSON document) to a Python object using this :ref:`conversion
+ table <json-to-py-table>`.
+
+ If the contents of *fp* are encoded with an ASCII based encoding other than
+ UTF-8 (e.g. latin-1), then an appropriate *encoding* name must be specified.
+ Encodings that are not ASCII based (such as UCS-2) are not allowed, and
+ should be wrapped with ``codecs.getreader(encoding)(fp)``, or simply decoded
+ to a :class:`unicode` object and passed to :func:`loads`.
+
+ *object_hook* is an optional function that will be called with the result of
+ any object literal decoded (a :class:`dict`). The return value of
+ *object_hook* will be used instead of the :class:`dict`. This feature can be used
+ to implement custom decoders (e.g. `JSON-RPC <http://www.jsonrpc.org>`_
+ class hinting).
+
+ *object_pairs_hook* is an optional function that will be called with the
+ result of any object literal decoded with an ordered list of pairs. The
+ return value of *object_pairs_hook* will be used instead of the
+ :class:`dict`. This feature can be used to implement custom decoders that
+ rely on the order that the key and value pairs are decoded (for example,
+ :func:`collections.OrderedDict` will remember the order of insertion). If
+ *object_hook* is also defined, the *object_pairs_hook* takes priority.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ Added support for *object_pairs_hook*.
+
+ *parse_float*, if specified, will be called with the string of every JSON
+ float to be decoded. By default, this is equivalent to ``float(num_str)``.
+ This can be used to use another datatype or parser for JSON floats
+ (e.g. :class:`decimal.Decimal`).
+
+ *parse_int*, if specified, will be called with the string of every JSON int
+ to be decoded. By default, this is equivalent to ``int(num_str)``. This can
+ be used to use another datatype or parser for JSON integers
+ (e.g. :class:`float`).
+
+ *parse_constant*, if specified, will be called with one of the following
+ strings: ``'-Infinity'``, ``'Infinity'``, ``'NaN'``.
+ This can be used to raise an exception if invalid JSON numbers
+ are encountered.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ *parse_constant* doesn't get called on 'null', 'true', 'false' anymore.
+
+ To use a custom :class:`JSONDecoder` subclass, specify it with the ``cls``
+ kwarg; otherwise :class:`JSONDecoder` is used. Additional keyword arguments
+ will be passed to the constructor of the class.
+
+
+.. function:: loads(s[, encoding[, cls[, object_hook[, parse_float[, parse_int[, parse_constant[, object_pairs_hook[, **kw]]]]]]]])
+
+ Deserialize *s* (a :class:`str` or :class:`unicode` instance containing a JSON
+ document) to a Python object using this :ref:`conversion table
+ <json-to-py-table>`.
+
+ If *s* is a :class:`str` instance and is encoded with an ASCII based encoding
+ other than UTF-8 (e.g. latin-1), then an appropriate *encoding* name must be
+ specified. Encodings that are not ASCII based (such as UCS-2) are not
+ allowed and should be decoded to :class:`unicode` first.
+
+ The other arguments have the same meaning as in :func:`load`.
+
+
+Encoders and Decoders
+---------------------
+
+.. class:: JSONDecoder([encoding[, object_hook[, parse_float[, parse_int[, parse_constant[, strict[, object_pairs_hook]]]]]]])
+
+ Simple JSON decoder.
+
+ Performs the following translations in decoding by default:
+
+ .. _json-to-py-table:
+
+ +---------------+-------------------+
+ | JSON | Python |
+ +===============+===================+
+ | object | dict |
+ +---------------+-------------------+
+ | array | list |
+ +---------------+-------------------+
+ | string | unicode |
+ +---------------+-------------------+
+ | number (int) | int, long |
+ +---------------+-------------------+
+ | number (real) | float |
+ +---------------+-------------------+
+ | true | True |
+ +---------------+-------------------+
+ | false | False |
+ +---------------+-------------------+
+ | null | None |
+ +---------------+-------------------+
+
+ It also understands ``NaN``, ``Infinity``, and ``-Infinity`` as their
+ corresponding ``float`` values, which is outside the JSON spec.
+
+ *encoding* determines the encoding used to interpret any :class:`str` objects
+ decoded by this instance (UTF-8 by default). It has no effect when decoding
+ :class:`unicode` objects.
+
+ Note that currently only encodings that are a superset of ASCII work, strings
+ of other encodings should be passed in as :class:`unicode`.
+
+ *object_hook*, if specified, will be called with the result of every JSON
+ object decoded and its return value will be used in place of the given
+ :class:`dict`. This can be used to provide custom deserializations (e.g. to
+ support JSON-RPC class hinting).
+
+ *object_pairs_hook*, if specified will be called with the result of every
+ JSON object decoded with an ordered list of pairs. The return value of
+ *object_pairs_hook* will be used instead of the :class:`dict`. This
+ feature can be used to implement custom decoders that rely on the order
+ that the key and value pairs are decoded (for example,
+ :func:`collections.OrderedDict` will remember the order of insertion). If
+ *object_hook* is also defined, the *object_pairs_hook* takes priority.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ Added support for *object_pairs_hook*.
+
+ *parse_float*, if specified, will be called with the string of every JSON
+ float to be decoded. By default, this is equivalent to ``float(num_str)``.
+ This can be used to use another datatype or parser for JSON floats
+ (e.g. :class:`decimal.Decimal`).
+
+ *parse_int*, if specified, will be called with the string of every JSON int
+ to be decoded. By default, this is equivalent to ``int(num_str)``. This can
+ be used to use another datatype or parser for JSON integers
+ (e.g. :class:`float`).
+
+ *parse_constant*, if specified, will be called with one of the following
+ strings: ``'-Infinity'``, ``'Infinity'``, ``'NaN'``, ``'null'``, ``'true'``,
+ ``'false'``. This can be used to raise an exception if invalid JSON numbers
+ are encountered.
+
+ If *strict* is ``False`` (``True`` is the default), then control characters
+ will be allowed inside strings. Control characters in this context are
+ those with character codes in the 0-31 range, including ``'\t'`` (tab),
+ ``'\n'``, ``'\r'`` and ``'\0'``.
+
+
+ .. method:: decode(s)
+
+ Return the Python representation of *s* (a :class:`str` or
+ :class:`unicode` instance containing a JSON document)
+
+ .. method:: raw_decode(s)
+
+ Decode a JSON document from *s* (a :class:`str` or :class:`unicode`
+ beginning with a JSON document) and return a 2-tuple of the Python
+ representation and the index in *s* where the document ended.
+
+ This can be used to decode a JSON document from a string that may have
+ extraneous data at the end.
+
+
+.. class:: JSONEncoder([skipkeys[, ensure_ascii[, check_circular[, allow_nan[, sort_keys[, indent[, separators[, encoding[, default]]]]]]]]])
+
+ Extensible JSON encoder for Python data structures.
+
+ Supports the following objects and types by default:
+
+ .. _py-to-json-table:
+
+ +-------------------+---------------+
+ | Python | JSON |
+ +===================+===============+
+ | dict | object |
+ +-------------------+---------------+
+ | list, tuple | array |
+ +-------------------+---------------+
+ | str, unicode | string |
+ +-------------------+---------------+
+ | int, long, float | number |
+ +-------------------+---------------+
+ | True | true |
+ +-------------------+---------------+
+ | False | false |
+ +-------------------+---------------+
+ | None | null |
+ +-------------------+---------------+
+
+ To extend this to recognize other objects, subclass and implement a
+ :meth:`default` method with another method that returns a serializable object
+ for ``o`` if possible, otherwise it should call the superclass implementation
+ (to raise :exc:`TypeError`).
+
+ If *skipkeys* is ``False`` (the default), then it is a :exc:`TypeError` to
+ attempt encoding of keys that are not str, int, long, float or None. If
+ *skipkeys* is ``True``, such items are simply skipped.
+
+ If *ensure_ascii* is ``True`` (the default), all non-ASCII characters in the
+ output are escaped with ``\uXXXX`` sequences, and the results are
+ :class:`str` instances consisting of ASCII characters only. If
+ *ensure_ascii* is ``False``, a result may be a :class:`unicode`
+ instance. This usually happens if the input contains unicode strings or the
+ *encoding* parameter is used.
+
+ If *check_circular* is ``True`` (the default), then lists, dicts, and custom
+ encoded objects will be checked for circular references during encoding to
+ prevent an infinite recursion (which would cause an :exc:`OverflowError`).
+ Otherwise, no such check takes place.
+
+ If *allow_nan* is ``True`` (the default), then ``NaN``, ``Infinity``, and
+ ``-Infinity`` will be encoded as such. This behavior is not JSON
+ specification compliant, but is consistent with most JavaScript based
+ encoders and decoders. Otherwise, it will be a :exc:`ValueError` to encode
+ such floats.
+
+ If *sort_keys* is ``True`` (default ``False``), then the output of dictionaries
+ will be sorted by key; this is useful for regression tests to ensure that
+ JSON serializations can be compared on a day-to-day basis.
+
+ If *indent* is a non-negative integer (it is ``None`` by default), then JSON
+ array elements and object members will be pretty-printed with that indent
+ level. An indent level of 0 will only insert newlines. ``None`` is the most
+ compact representation.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Since the default item separator is ``', '``, the output might include
+ trailing whitespace when *indent* is specified. You can use
+ ``separators=(',', ': ')`` to avoid this.
+
+ If specified, *separators* should be an ``(item_separator, key_separator)``
+ tuple. The default is ``(', ', ': ')``. To get the most compact JSON
+ representation, you should specify ``(',', ':')`` to eliminate whitespace.
+
+ If specified, *default* is a function that gets called for objects that can't
+ otherwise be serialized. It should return a JSON encodable version of the
+ object or raise a :exc:`TypeError`.
+
+ If *encoding* is not ``None``, then all input strings will be transformed
+ into unicode using that encoding prior to JSON-encoding. The default is
+ UTF-8.
+
+
+ .. method:: default(o)
+
+ Implement this method in a subclass such that it returns a serializable
+ object for *o*, or calls the base implementation (to raise a
+ :exc:`TypeError`).
+
+ For example, to support arbitrary iterators, you could implement default
+ like this::
+
+ def default(self, o):
+ try:
+ iterable = iter(o)
+ except TypeError:
+ pass
+ else:
+ return list(iterable)
+ # Let the base class default method raise the TypeError
+ return JSONEncoder.default(self, o)
+
+
+ .. method:: encode(o)
+
+ Return a JSON string representation of a Python data structure, *o*. For
+ example::
+
+ >>> JSONEncoder().encode({"foo": ["bar", "baz"]})
+ '{"foo": ["bar", "baz"]}'
+
+
+ .. method:: iterencode(o)
+
+ Encode the given object, *o*, and yield each string representation as
+ available. For example::
+
+ for chunk in JSONEncoder().iterencode(bigobject):
+ mysocket.write(chunk)
+
+
+Standard Compliance
+-------------------
+
+The JSON format is specified by :rfc:`4627`. This section details this
+module's level of compliance with the RFC. For simplicity,
+:class:`JSONEncoder` and :class:`JSONDecoder` subclasses, and parameters other
+than those explicitly mentioned, are not considered.
+
+This module does not comply with the RFC in a strict fashion, implementing some
+extensions that are valid JavaScript but not valid JSON. In particular:
+
+- Top-level non-object, non-array values are accepted and output;
+- Infinite and NaN number values are accepted and output;
+- Repeated names within an object are accepted, and only the value of the last
+ name-value pair is used.
+
+Since the RFC permits RFC-compliant parsers to accept input texts that are not
+RFC-compliant, this module's deserializer is technically RFC-compliant under
+default settings.
+
+Character Encodings
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The RFC recommends that JSON be represented using either UTF-8, UTF-16, or
+UTF-32, with UTF-8 being the default. Accordingly, this module uses UTF-8 as
+the default for its *encoding* parameter.
+
+This module's deserializer only directly works with ASCII-compatible encodings;
+UTF-16, UTF-32, and other ASCII-incompatible encodings require the use of
+workarounds described in the documentation for the deserializer's *encoding*
+parameter.
+
+The RFC also non-normatively describes a limited encoding detection technique
+for JSON texts; this module's deserializer does not implement this or any other
+kind of encoding detection.
+
+As permitted, though not required, by the RFC, this module's serializer sets
+*ensure_ascii=True* by default, thus escaping the output so that the resulting
+strings only contain ASCII characters.
+
+
+Top-level Non-Object, Non-Array Values
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The RFC specifies that the top-level value of a JSON text must be either a
+JSON object or array (Python :class:`dict` or :class:`list`). This module's
+deserializer also accepts input texts consisting solely of a
+JSON null, boolean, number, or string value::
+
+ >>> just_a_json_string = '"spam and eggs"' # Not by itself a valid JSON text
+ >>> json.loads(just_a_json_string)
+ u'spam and eggs'
+
+This module itself does not include a way to request that such input texts be
+regarded as illegal. Likewise, this module's serializer also accepts single
+Python :data:`None`, :class:`bool`, numeric, and :class:`str`
+values as input and will generate output texts consisting solely of a top-level
+JSON null, boolean, number, or string value without raising an exception::
+
+ >>> neither_a_list_nor_a_dict = u"spam and eggs"
+ >>> json.dumps(neither_a_list_nor_a_dict) # The result is not a valid JSON text
+ '"spam and eggs"'
+
+This module's serializer does not itself include a way to enforce the
+aforementioned constraint.
+
+
+Infinite and NaN Number Values
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The RFC does not permit the representation of infinite or NaN number values.
+Despite that, by default, this module accepts and outputs ``Infinity``,
+``-Infinity``, and ``NaN`` as if they were valid JSON number literal values::
+
+ >>> # Neither of these calls raises an exception, but the results are not valid JSON
+ >>> json.dumps(float('-inf'))
+ '-Infinity'
+ >>> json.dumps(float('nan'))
+ 'NaN'
+ >>> # Same when deserializing
+ >>> json.loads('-Infinity')
+ -inf
+ >>> json.loads('NaN')
+ nan
+
+In the serializer, the *allow_nan* parameter can be used to alter this
+behavior. In the deserializer, the *parse_constant* parameter can be used to
+alter this behavior.
+
+
+Repeated Names Within an Object
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The RFC specifies that the names within a JSON object should be unique, but
+does not specify how repeated names in JSON objects should be handled. By
+default, this module does not raise an exception; instead, it ignores all but
+the last name-value pair for a given name::
+
+ >>> weird_json = '{"x": 1, "x": 2, "x": 3}'
+ >>> json.loads(weird_json)
+ {u'x': 3}
+
+The *object_pairs_hook* parameter can be used to alter this behavior.

+================================================
+
+.. module:: linecache
+ :synopsis: This module provides random access to individual lines from text files.
+.. sectionauthor:: Moshe Zadka <[email protected]>
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/linecache.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`linecache` module allows one to get any line from any file, while
+attempting to optimize internally, using a cache, the common case where many
+lines are read from a single file. This is used by the :mod:`traceback` module
+to retrieve source lines for inclusion in the formatted traceback.
+
+The :mod:`linecache` module defines the following functions:
+
+
+.. function:: getline(filename, lineno[, module_globals])
+
+ Get line *lineno* from file named *filename*. This function will never raise an
+ exception --- it will return ``''`` on errors (the terminating newline character
+ will be included for lines that are found).
+
+ .. index:: triple: module; search; path
+
+ If a file named *filename* is not found, the function will look for it in the
+ module search path, ``sys.path``, after first checking for a :pep:`302`
+ ``__loader__`` in *module_globals*, in case the module was imported from a
+ zipfile or other non-filesystem import source.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+ The *module_globals* parameter was added.
+
+
+.. function:: clearcache()
+
+ Clear the cache. Use this function if you no longer need lines from files
+ previously read using :func:`getline`.

+.. function:: checkcache([filename])
+
+ Check the cache for validity. Use this function if files in the cache may have
+ changed on disk, and you require the updated version. If *filename* is omitted,

+===============================================
+
+.. module:: locale
+ :synopsis: Internationalization services.
+.. moduleauthor:: Martin von Löwis <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Martin von Löwis <[email protected]>
+
+
+The :mod:`locale` module opens access to the POSIX locale database and
+functionality. The POSIX locale mechanism allows programmers to deal with
+certain cultural issues in an application, without requiring the programmer to
+know all the specifics of each country where the software is executed.
+
+.. index:: module: _locale
+
+The :mod:`locale` module is implemented on top of the :mod:`_locale` module,
+which in turn uses an ANSI C locale implementation if available.
+
+The :mod:`locale` module defines the following exception and functions:
+
+
+.. exception:: Error
+
+ Exception raised when the locale passed to :func:`setlocale` is not
+ recognized.
+
+
+.. function:: setlocale(category[, locale])
+
+ If *locale* is given and not ``None``, :func:`setlocale` modifies the locale
+ setting for the *category*. The available categories are listed in the data
+ description below. *locale* may be a string, or an iterable of two strings
+ (language code and encoding). If it's an iterable, it's converted to a locale
+ name using the locale aliasing engine. An empty string specifies the user's
+ default settings. If the modification of the locale fails, the exception
+ :exc:`Error` is raised. If successful, the new locale setting is returned.
+
+ If *locale* is omitted or ``None``, the current setting for *category* is
+ returned.
+
+ :func:`setlocale` is not thread-safe on most systems. Applications typically
+ start with a call of ::
+
+ import locale
+ locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, '')
+
+ This sets the locale for all categories to the user's default setting (typically
+ specified in the :envvar:`LANG` environment variable). If the locale is not
+ changed thereafter, using multithreading should not cause problems.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.0
+ Added support for iterable values of the *locale* parameter.
+
+
+.. function:: localeconv()
+
+ Returns the database of the local conventions as a dictionary. This dictionary
+ has the following strings as keys:
+
+ .. tabularcolumns:: |l|l|L|
+

+
+
+.. function:: nl_langinfo(option)
+
+ Return some locale-specific information as a string. This function is not
+ available on all systems, and the set of possible options might also vary
+ across platforms. The possible argument values are numbers, for which
+ symbolic constants are available in the locale module.
+
+ The :func:`nl_langinfo` function accepts one of the following keys. Most
+ descriptions are taken from the corresponding description in the GNU C
+ library.
+
+ .. data:: CODESET
+
+ Get a string with the name of the character encoding used in the
+ selected locale.
+
+ .. data:: D_T_FMT
+
+ Get a string that can be used as a format string for :func:`time.strftime` to
+ represent date and time in a locale-specific way.
+
+ .. data:: D_FMT
+
+ Get a string that can be used as a format string for :func:`time.strftime` to
+ represent a date in a locale-specific way.
+
+ .. data:: T_FMT
+
+ Get a string that can be used as a format string for :func:`time.strftime` to
+ represent a time in a locale-specific way.
+
+ .. data:: T_FMT_AMPM
+
+ Get a format string for :func:`time.strftime` to represent time in the am/pm
+ format.
+
+ .. data:: DAY_1 ... DAY_7
+
+ Get the name of the n-th day of the week.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ This follows the US convention of :const:`DAY_1` being Sunday, not the
+ international convention (ISO 8601) that Monday is the first day of the
+ week.
+
+ .. data:: ABDAY_1 ... ABDAY_7
+
+ Get the abbreviated name of the n-th day of the week.
+
+ .. data:: MON_1 ... MON_12
+
+ Get the name of the n-th month.
+
+ .. data:: ABMON_1 ... ABMON_12
+
+ Get the abbreviated name of the n-th month.
+
+ .. data:: RADIXCHAR
+
+ Get the radix character (decimal dot, decimal comma, etc.)
+
+ .. data:: THOUSEP
+
+ Get the separator character for thousands (groups of three digits).
+
+ .. data:: YESEXPR
+
+ Get a regular expression that can be used with the regex function to
+ recognize a positive response to a yes/no question.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ The expression is in the syntax suitable for the :c:func:`regex` function
+ from the C library, which might differ from the syntax used in :mod:`re`.
+
+ .. data:: NOEXPR
+
+ Get a regular expression that can be used with the regex(3) function to
+ recognize a negative response to a yes/no question.
+
+ .. data:: CRNCYSTR
+
+ Get the currency symbol, preceded by "-" if the symbol should appear before
+ the value, "+" if the symbol should appear after the value, or "." if the
+ symbol should replace the radix character.
+
+ .. data:: ERA
+
+ Get a string that represents the era used in the current locale.
+
+ Most locales do not define this value. An example of a locale which does
+ define this value is the Japanese one. In Japan, the traditional
+ representation of dates includes the name of the era corresponding to the
+ then-emperor's reign.
+
+ Normally it should not be necessary to use this value directly. Specifying
+ the ``E`` modifier in their format strings causes the :func:`time.strftime`
+ function to use this information. The format of the returned string is not
+ specified, and therefore you should not assume knowledge of it on different
+ systems.
+
+ .. data:: ERA_D_T_FMT
+
+ Get a format string for :func:`time.strftime` to represent date and time in a
+ locale-specific era-based way.
+
+ .. data:: ERA_D_FMT
+
+ Get a format string for :func:`time.strftime` to represent a date in a
+ locale-specific era-based way.
+
+ .. data:: ERA_T_FMT
+
+ Get a format string for :func:`time.strftime` to represent a time in a
+ locale-specific era-based way.
+
+ .. data:: ALT_DIGITS
+
+ Get a representation of up to 100 values used to represent the values
+ 0 to 99.
+
+
+.. function:: getdefaultlocale([envvars])
+
+ Tries to determine the default locale settings and returns them as a tuple of
+ the form ``(language code, encoding)``.
+
+ According to POSIX, a program which has not called ``setlocale(LC_ALL, '')``
+ runs using the portable ``'C'`` locale. Calling ``setlocale(LC_ALL, '')`` lets
+ it use the default locale as defined by the :envvar:`LANG` variable. Since we
+ do not want to interfere with the current locale setting we thus emulate the
+ behavior in the way described above.
+
+ To maintain compatibility with other platforms, not only the :envvar:`LANG`
+ variable is tested, but a list of variables given as envvars parameter. The
+ first found to be defined will be used. *envvars* defaults to the search path
+ used in GNU gettext; it must always contain the variable name ``LANG``. The GNU
+ gettext search path contains ``'LANGUAGE'``, ``'LC_ALL'``, ``'LC_CTYPE'``, and
+ ``'LANG'``, in that order.
+
+ Except for the code ``'C'``, the language code corresponds to :rfc:`1766`.
+ *language code* and *encoding* may be ``None`` if their values cannot be
+ determined.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+
+.. function:: getlocale([category])
+
+ Returns the current setting for the given locale category as sequence containing
+ *language code*, *encoding*. *category* may be one of the :const:`LC_\*` values
+ except :const:`LC_ALL`. It defaults to :const:`LC_CTYPE`.
+
+ Except for the code ``'C'``, the language code corresponds to :rfc:`1766`.
+ *language code* and *encoding* may be ``None`` if their values cannot be
+ determined.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+
+.. function:: getpreferredencoding([do_setlocale])
+
+ Return the encoding used for text data, according to user preferences. User
+ preferences are expressed differently on different systems, and might not be
+ available programmatically on some systems, so this function only returns a
+ guess.
+
+ On some systems, it is necessary to invoke :func:`setlocale` to obtain the user
+ preferences, so this function is not thread-safe. If invoking setlocale is not
+ necessary or desired, *do_setlocale* should be set to ``False``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. function:: normalize(localename)
+
+ Returns a normalized locale code for the given locale name. The returned locale
+ code is formatted for use with :func:`setlocale`. If normalization fails, the
+ original name is returned unchanged.
+
+ If the given encoding is not known, the function defaults to the default
+ encoding for the locale code just like :func:`setlocale`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+
+.. function:: resetlocale([category])
+
+ Sets the locale for *category* to the default setting.
+
+ The default setting is determined by calling :func:`getdefaultlocale`.
+ *category* defaults to :const:`LC_ALL`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+
+.. function:: strcoll(string1, string2)
+
+ Compares two strings according to the current :const:`LC_COLLATE` setting. As
+ any other compare function, returns a negative, or a positive value, or ``0``,
+ depending on whether *string1* collates before or after *string2* or is equal to
+ it.
+
+
+.. function:: strxfrm(string)
+
+ .. index:: builtin: cmp
+
+ Transforms a string to one that can be used for the built-in function
+ :func:`cmp`, and still returns locale-aware results. This function can be used
+ when the same string is compared repeatedly, e.g. when collating a sequence of
+ strings.
+
+
+.. function:: format(format, val[, grouping[, monetary]])
+
+ Formats a number *val* according to the current :const:`LC_NUMERIC` setting.
+ The format follows the conventions of the ``%`` operator. For floating point
+ values, the decimal point is modified if appropriate. If *grouping* is true,
+ also takes the grouping into account.
+
+ If *monetary* is true, the conversion uses monetary thousands separator and
+ grouping strings.
+
+ Please note that this function will only work for exactly one %char specifier.
+ For whole format strings, use :func:`format_string`.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ Added the *monetary* parameter.
+
+
+.. function:: format_string(format, val[, grouping])
+
+ Processes formatting specifiers as in ``format % val``, but takes the current
+ locale settings into account.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. function:: currency(val[, symbol[, grouping[, international]]])
+
+ Formats a number *val* according to the current :const:`LC_MONETARY` settings.
+
+ The returned string includes the currency symbol if *symbol* is true, which is
+ the default. If *grouping* is true (which is not the default), grouping is done
+ with the value. If *international* is true (which is not the default), the
+ international currency symbol is used.
+
+ Note that this function will not work with the 'C' locale, so you have to set a
+ locale via :func:`setlocale` first.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. function:: str(float)
+
+ Formats a floating point number using the same format as the built-in function
+ ``str(float)``, but takes the decimal point into account.
+
+
+.. function:: atof(string)
+
+ Converts a string to a floating point number, following the :const:`LC_NUMERIC`
+ settings.
+
+
+.. function:: atoi(string)
+
+ Converts a string to an integer, following the :const:`LC_NUMERIC` conventions.
+
+
+.. data:: LC_CTYPE
+
+ .. index:: module: string
+
+ Locale category for the character type functions. Depending on the settings of
+ this category, the functions of module :mod:`string` dealing with case change
+ their behaviour.
+
+
+.. data:: LC_COLLATE
+
+ Locale category for sorting strings. The functions :func:`strcoll` and
+ :func:`strxfrm` of the :mod:`locale` module are affected.
+
+
+.. data:: LC_TIME
+
+ Locale category for the formatting of time. The function :func:`time.strftime`
+ follows these conventions.
+
+
+.. data:: LC_MONETARY
+
+ Locale category for formatting of monetary values. The available options are
+ available from the :func:`localeconv` function.
+
+
+.. data:: LC_MESSAGES
+
+ Locale category for message display. Python currently does not support
+ application specific locale-aware messages. Messages displayed by the operating
+ system, like those returned by :func:`os.strerror` might be affected by this
+ category.
+
+
+.. data:: LC_NUMERIC
+
+ Locale category for formatting numbers. The functions :func:`.format`,
+ :func:`atoi`, :func:`atof` and :func:`.str` of the :mod:`locale` module are
+ affected by that category. All other numeric formatting operations are not
+ affected.
+
+
+.. data:: LC_ALL
+
+ Combination of all locale settings. If this flag is used when the locale is
+ changed, setting the locale for all categories is attempted. If that fails for
+ any category, no category is changed at all. When the locale is retrieved using
+ this flag, a string indicating the setting for all categories is returned. This
+ string can be later used to restore the settings.
+
+
+.. data:: CHAR_MAX
+
+ This is a symbolic constant used for different values returned by
+ :func:`localeconv`.
+
+
+Example::
+
+ >>> import locale
+ >>> loc = locale.getlocale() # get current locale
+ # use German locale; name might vary with platform
+ >>> locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, 'de_DE')
+ >>> locale.strcoll('f\xe4n', 'foo') # compare a string containing an umlaut
+ >>> locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, '') # use user's preferred locale
+ >>> locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, 'C') # use default (C) locale
+ >>> locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, loc) # restore saved locale
+
+
+Background, details, hints, tips and caveats
+--------------------------------------------
+
+The C standard defines the locale as a program-wide property that may be
+relatively expensive to change. On top of that, some implementation are broken
+in such a way that frequent locale changes may cause core dumps. This makes the
+locale somewhat painful to use correctly.
+
+Initially, when a program is started, the locale is the ``C`` locale, no matter
+what the user's preferred locale is. The program must explicitly say that it
+wants the user's preferred locale settings by calling ``setlocale(LC_ALL, '')``.
+
+It is generally a bad idea to call :func:`setlocale` in some library routine,
+since as a side effect it affects the entire program. Saving and restoring it
+is almost as bad: it is expensive and affects other threads that happen to run
+before the settings have been restored.
+
+If, when coding a module for general use, you need a locale independent version
+of an operation that is affected by the locale (such as :func:`string.lower`, or
+certain formats used with :func:`time.strftime`), you will have to find a way to
+do it without using the standard library routine. Even better is convincing
+yourself that using locale settings is okay. Only as a last resort should you
+document that your module is not compatible with non-\ ``C`` locale settings.
+
+.. index:: module: string
+
+The case conversion functions in the :mod:`string` module are affected by the
+locale settings. When a call to the :func:`setlocale` function changes the
+:const:`LC_CTYPE` settings, the variables ``string.lowercase``,
+``string.uppercase`` and ``string.letters`` are recalculated. Note that code
+that uses these variable through ':keyword:`from` ... :keyword:`import` ...',
+e.g. ``from string import letters``, is not affected by subsequent
+:func:`setlocale` calls.
+
+The only way to perform numeric operations according to the locale is to use the
+special functions defined by this module: :func:`atof`, :func:`atoi`,
+:func:`.format`, :func:`.str`.
+
+
+.. _embedding-locale:
+
+For extension writers and programs that embed Python
+----------------------------------------------------
+
+Extension modules should never call :func:`setlocale`, except to find out what
+the current locale is. But since the return value can only be used portably to
+restore it, that is not very useful (except perhaps to find out whether or not
+the locale is ``C``).
+
+When Python code uses the :mod:`locale` module to change the locale, this also
+affects the embedding application. If the embedding application doesn't want
+this to happen, it should remove the :mod:`_locale` extension module (which does
+all the work) from the table of built-in modules in the :file:`config.c` file,
+and make sure that the :mod:`_locale` module is not accessible as a shared
+library.
+
+
+.. _locale-gettext:
+
+Access to message catalogs
+--------------------------
+
+The locale module exposes the C library's gettext interface on systems that
+provide this interface. It consists of the functions :func:`gettext`,
+:func:`dgettext`, :func:`dcgettext`, :func:`textdomain`, :func:`bindtextdomain`,
+and :func:`bind_textdomain_codeset`. These are similar to the same functions in
+the :mod:`gettext` module, but use the C library's binary format for message
+catalogs, and the C library's search algorithms for locating message catalogs.
+
+Python applications should normally find no need to invoke these functions, and
+should use :mod:`gettext` instead. A known exception to this rule are
+applications that link with additional C libraries which internally invoke
+:c:func:`gettext` or :func:`dcgettext`. For these applications, it may be
+necessary to bind the text domain, so that the libraries can properly locate
+their message catalogs.

+ * :ref:`Basic Tutorial <logging-basic-tutorial>`
+ * :ref:`Advanced Tutorial <logging-advanced-tutorial>`
+ * :ref:`Logging Cookbook <logging-cookbook>`
+
+This section describes the API for configuring the logging module.
+
+.. _logging-config-api:
+
+Configuration functions
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The following functions configure the logging module. They are located in the
+:mod:`logging.config` module. Their use is optional --- you can configure the
+logging module using these functions or by making calls to the main API (defined
+in :mod:`logging` itself) and defining handlers which are declared either in
+:mod:`logging` or :mod:`logging.handlers`.
+
+.. function:: dictConfig(config)
+
+ Takes the logging configuration from a dictionary. The contents of
+ this dictionary are described in :ref:`logging-config-dictschema`
+ below.
+
+ If an error is encountered during configuration, this function will
+ raise a :exc:`ValueError`, :exc:`TypeError`, :exc:`AttributeError`
+ or :exc:`ImportError` with a suitably descriptive message. The
+ following is a (possibly incomplete) list of conditions which will
+ raise an error:
+
+ * A ``level`` which is not a string or which is a string not
+ corresponding to an actual logging level.
+ * A ``propagate`` value which is not a boolean.
+ * An id which does not have a corresponding destination.
+ * A non-existent handler id found during an incremental call.
+ * An invalid logger name.
+ * Inability to resolve to an internal or external object.
+
+ Parsing is performed by the :class:`DictConfigurator` class, whose
+ constructor is passed the dictionary used for configuration, and
+ has a :meth:`configure` method. The :mod:`logging.config` module
+ has a callable attribute :attr:`dictConfigClass`
+ which is initially set to :class:`DictConfigurator`.
+ You can replace the value of :attr:`dictConfigClass` with a
+ suitable implementation of your own.
+
+ :func:`dictConfig` calls :attr:`dictConfigClass` passing
+ the specified dictionary, and then calls the :meth:`configure` method on
+ the returned object to put the configuration into effect::
+
+ def dictConfig(config):
+ dictConfigClass(config).configure()
+
+ For example, a subclass of :class:`DictConfigurator` could call
+ ``DictConfigurator.__init__()`` in its own :meth:`__init__()`, then
+ set up custom prefixes which would be usable in the subsequent
+ :meth:`configure` call. :attr:`dictConfigClass` would be bound to
+ this new subclass, and then :func:`dictConfig` could be called exactly as
+ in the default, uncustomized state.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+.. function:: fileConfig(fname, defaults=None, disable_existing_loggers=True)
+
+ Reads the logging configuration from a :mod:`configparser`\-format file
+ named *fname*. This function can be called several times from an
+ application, allowing an end user to select from various pre-canned
+ configurations (if the developer provides a mechanism to present the choices
+ and load the chosen configuration).
+
+ :param defaults: Defaults to be passed to the ConfigParser can be specified
+ in this argument.
+
+ :param disable_existing_loggers: If specified as ``False``, loggers which
+ exist when this call is made are left
+ alone. The default is ``True`` because this
+ enables old behaviour in a backward-
+ compatible way. This behaviour is to
+ disable any existing loggers unless they or
+ their ancestors are explicitly named in the
+ logging configuration.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ The ``disable_existing_loggers`` keyword argument was added. Previously,
+ existing loggers were *always* disabled.
+
+.. function:: listen(port=DEFAULT_LOGGING_CONFIG_PORT)
+
+ Starts up a socket server on the specified port, and listens for new
+ configurations. If no port is specified, the module's default
+ :const:`DEFAULT_LOGGING_CONFIG_PORT` is used. Logging configurations will be
+ sent as a file suitable for processing by :func:`fileConfig`. Returns a
+ :class:`Thread` instance on which you can call :meth:`start` to start the
+ server, and which you can :meth:`join` when appropriate. To stop the server,
+ call :func:`stopListening`.
+
+ To send a configuration to the socket, read in the configuration file and
+ send it to the socket as a string of bytes preceded by a four-byte length
+ string packed in binary using ``struct.pack('>L', n)``.
+
+ .. note:: Because portions of the configuration are passed through
+ :func:`eval`, use of this function may open its users to a security risk.
+ While the function only binds to a socket on ``localhost``, and so does
+ not accept connections from remote machines, there are scenarios where
+ untrusted code could be run under the account of the process which calls
+ :func:`listen`. Specifically, if the process calling :func:`listen` runs
+ on a multi-user machine where users cannot trust each other, then a
+ malicious user could arrange to run essentially arbitrary code in a
+ victim user's process, simply by connecting to the victim's
+ :func:`listen` socket and sending a configuration which runs whatever
+ code the attacker wants to have executed in the victim's process. This is
+ especially easy to do if the default port is used, but not hard even if a
+ different port is used).
+
+.. function:: stopListening()
+
+ Stops the listening server which was created with a call to :func:`listen`.
+ This is typically called before calling :meth:`join` on the return value from
+ :func:`listen`.
+
+
+.. _logging-config-dictschema:
+
+Configuration dictionary schema
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Describing a logging configuration requires listing the various
+objects to create and the connections between them; for example, you
+may create a handler named 'console' and then say that the logger
+named 'startup' will send its messages to the 'console' handler.
+These objects aren't limited to those provided by the :mod:`logging`
+module because you might write your own formatter or handler class.
+The parameters to these classes may also need to include external
+objects such as ``sys.stderr``. The syntax for describing these
+objects and connections is defined in :ref:`logging-config-dict-connections`
+below.
+
+Dictionary Schema Details
+"""""""""""""""""""""""""
+
+The dictionary passed to :func:`dictConfig` must contain the following
+keys:
+
+* *version* - to be set to an integer value representing the schema
+ version. The only valid value at present is 1, but having this key
+ allows the schema to evolve while still preserving backwards
+ compatibility.
+
+All other keys are optional, but if present they will be interpreted
+as described below. In all cases below where a 'configuring dict' is
+mentioned, it will be checked for the special ``'()'`` key to see if a
+custom instantiation is required. If so, the mechanism described in
+:ref:`logging-config-dict-userdef` below is used to create an instance;
+otherwise, the context is used to determine what to instantiate.
+
+* *formatters* - the corresponding value will be a dict in which each
+ key is a formatter id and each value is a dict describing how to
+ configure the corresponding Formatter instance.
+
+ The configuring dict is searched for keys ``format`` and ``datefmt``
+ (with defaults of ``None``) and these are used to construct a
+ :class:`logging.Formatter` instance.
+
+* *filters* - the corresponding value will be a dict in which each key
+ is a filter id and each value is a dict describing how to configure
+ the corresponding Filter instance.
+
+ The configuring dict is searched for the key ``name`` (defaulting to the
+ empty string) and this is used to construct a :class:`logging.Filter`
+ instance.
+
+* *handlers* - the corresponding value will be a dict in which each
+ key is a handler id and each value is a dict describing how to
+ configure the corresponding Handler instance.
+
+ The configuring dict is searched for the following keys:
+
+ * ``class`` (mandatory). This is the fully qualified name of the
+ handler class.
+
+ * ``level`` (optional). The level of the handler.
+
+ * ``formatter`` (optional). The id of the formatter for this
+ handler.
+
+ * ``filters`` (optional). A list of ids of the filters for this
+ handler.
+
+ All *other* keys are passed through as keyword arguments to the
+ handler's constructor. For example, given the snippet::
+
+ handlers:
+ console:
+ class : logging.StreamHandler
+ formatter: brief
+ level : INFO
+ filters: [allow_foo]
+ stream : ext://sys.stdout
+ file:
+ class : logging.handlers.RotatingFileHandler
+ formatter: precise
+ filename: logconfig.log
+ maxBytes: 1024
+ backupCount: 3
+
+ the handler with id ``console`` is instantiated as a
+ :class:`logging.StreamHandler`, using ``sys.stdout`` as the underlying
+ stream. The handler with id ``file`` is instantiated as a
+ :class:`logging.handlers.RotatingFileHandler` with the keyword arguments
+ ``filename='logconfig.log', maxBytes=1024, backupCount=3``.
+
+* *loggers* - the corresponding value will be a dict in which each key
+ is a logger name and each value is a dict describing how to
+ configure the corresponding Logger instance.
+
+ The configuring dict is searched for the following keys:
+
+ * ``level`` (optional). The level of the logger.
+
+ * ``propagate`` (optional). The propagation setting of the logger.
+
+ * ``filters`` (optional). A list of ids of the filters for this
+ logger.
+
+ * ``handlers`` (optional). A list of ids of the handlers for this
+ logger.
+
+ The specified loggers will be configured according to the level,
+ propagation, filters and handlers specified.
+
+* *root* - this will be the configuration for the root logger.
+ Processing of the configuration will be as for any logger, except
+ that the ``propagate`` setting will not be applicable.
+
+* *incremental* - whether the configuration is to be interpreted as
+ incremental to the existing configuration. This value defaults to
+ ``False``, which means that the specified configuration replaces the
+ existing configuration with the same semantics as used by the
+ existing :func:`fileConfig` API.
+
+ If the specified value is ``True``, the configuration is processed
+ as described in the section on :ref:`logging-config-dict-incremental`.
+
+* *disable_existing_loggers* - whether any existing loggers are to be
+ disabled. This setting mirrors the parameter of the same name in
+ :func:`fileConfig`. If absent, this parameter defaults to ``True``.
+ This value is ignored if *incremental* is ``True``.
+
+.. _logging-config-dict-incremental:
+
+Incremental Configuration
+"""""""""""""""""""""""""
+
+It is difficult to provide complete flexibility for incremental
+configuration. For example, because objects such as filters
+and formatters are anonymous, once a configuration is set up, it is
+not possible to refer to such anonymous objects when augmenting a
+configuration.
+
+Furthermore, there is not a compelling case for arbitrarily altering
+the object graph of loggers, handlers, filters, formatters at
+run-time, once a configuration is set up; the verbosity of loggers and
+handlers can be controlled just by setting levels (and, in the case of
+loggers, propagation flags). Changing the object graph arbitrarily in
+a safe way is problematic in a multi-threaded environment; while not
+impossible, the benefits are not worth the complexity it adds to the
+implementation.
+
+Thus, when the ``incremental`` key of a configuration dict is present
+and is ``True``, the system will completely ignore any ``formatters`` and
+``filters`` entries, and process only the ``level``
+settings in the ``handlers`` entries, and the ``level`` and
+``propagate`` settings in the ``loggers`` and ``root`` entries.
+
+Using a value in the configuration dict lets configurations to be sent
+over the wire as pickled dicts to a socket listener. Thus, the logging
+verbosity of a long-running application can be altered over time with
+no need to stop and restart the application.
+
+.. _logging-config-dict-connections:
+
+Object connections
+""""""""""""""""""
+
+The schema describes a set of logging objects - loggers,
+handlers, formatters, filters - which are connected to each other in
+an object graph. Thus, the schema needs to represent connections
+between the objects. For example, say that, once configured, a
+particular logger has attached to it a particular handler. For the
+purposes of this discussion, we can say that the logger represents the
+source, and the handler the destination, of a connection between the
+two. Of course in the configured objects this is represented by the
+logger holding a reference to the handler. In the configuration dict,
+this is done by giving each destination object an id which identifies
+it unambiguously, and then using the id in the source object's
+configuration to indicate that a connection exists between the source
+and the destination object with that id.
+
+So, for example, consider the following YAML snippet::
+
+ formatters:
+ brief:
+ # configuration for formatter with id 'brief' goes here
+ precise:
+ # configuration for formatter with id 'precise' goes here
+ handlers:
+ h1: #This is an id
+ # configuration of handler with id 'h1' goes here
+ formatter: brief
+ h2: #This is another id
+ # configuration of handler with id 'h2' goes here
+ formatter: precise
+ loggers:
+ foo.bar.baz:
+ # other configuration for logger 'foo.bar.baz'
+ handlers: [h1, h2]
+
+(Note: YAML used here because it's a little more readable than the
+equivalent Python source form for the dictionary.)
+
+The ids for loggers are the logger names which would be used
+programmatically to obtain a reference to those loggers, e.g.
+``foo.bar.baz``. The ids for Formatters and Filters can be any string
+value (such as ``brief``, ``precise`` above) and they are transient,
+in that they are only meaningful for processing the configuration
+dictionary and used to determine connections between objects, and are
+not persisted anywhere when the configuration call is complete.
+
+The above snippet indicates that logger named ``foo.bar.baz`` should
+have two handlers attached to it, which are described by the handler
+ids ``h1`` and ``h2``. The formatter for ``h1`` is that described by id
+``brief``, and the formatter for ``h2`` is that described by id
+``precise``.
+
+
+.. _logging-config-dict-userdef:
+
+User-defined objects
+""""""""""""""""""""
+
+The schema supports user-defined objects for handlers, filters and
+formatters. (Loggers do not need to have different types for
+different instances, so there is no support in this configuration
+schema for user-defined logger classes.)
+
+Objects to be configured are described by dictionaries
+which detail their configuration. In some places, the logging system
+will be able to infer from the context how an object is to be
+instantiated, but when a user-defined object is to be instantiated,
+the system will not know how to do this. In order to provide complete
+flexibility for user-defined object instantiation, the user needs
+to provide a 'factory' - a callable which is called with a
+configuration dictionary and which returns the instantiated object.
+This is signalled by an absolute import path to the factory being
+made available under the special key ``'()'``. Here's a concrete
+example::
+
+ formatters:
+ brief:
+ format: '%(message)s'
+ default:
+ format: '%(asctime)s %(levelname)-8s %(name)-15s %(message)s'
+ datefmt: '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S'
+ custom:
+ (): my.package.customFormatterFactory
+ bar: baz
+ spam: 99.9
+ answer: 42
+
+The above YAML snippet defines three formatters. The first, with id
+``brief``, is a standard :class:`logging.Formatter` instance with the
+specified format string. The second, with id ``default``, has a
+longer format and also defines the time format explicitly, and will
+result in a :class:`logging.Formatter` initialized with those two format
+strings. Shown in Python source form, the ``brief`` and ``default``
+formatters have configuration sub-dictionaries::
+
+ {
+ 'format' : '%(message)s'
+ }
+
+and::
+
+ {
+ 'format' : '%(asctime)s %(levelname)-8s %(name)-15s %(message)s',
+ 'datefmt' : '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S'
+ }
+
+respectively, and as these dictionaries do not contain the special key
+``'()'``, the instantiation is inferred from the context: as a result,
+standard :class:`logging.Formatter` instances are created. The
+configuration sub-dictionary for the third formatter, with id
+``custom``, is::
+
+ {
+ '()' : 'my.package.customFormatterFactory',
+ 'bar' : 'baz',
+ 'spam' : 99.9,
+ 'answer' : 42
+ }
+
+and this contains the special key ``'()'``, which means that
+user-defined instantiation is wanted. In this case, the specified
+factory callable will be used. If it is an actual callable it will be
+used directly - otherwise, if you specify a string (as in the example)
+the actual callable will be located using normal import mechanisms.
+The callable will be called with the **remaining** items in the
+configuration sub-dictionary as keyword arguments. In the above
+example, the formatter with id ``custom`` will be assumed to be
+returned by the call::
+
+ my.package.customFormatterFactory(bar='baz', spam=99.9, answer=42)
+
+The key ``'()'`` has been used as the special key because it is not a
+valid keyword parameter name, and so will not clash with the names of
+the keyword arguments used in the call. The ``'()'`` also serves as a
+mnemonic that the corresponding value is a callable.
+
+
+.. _logging-config-dict-externalobj:
+
+Access to external objects
+""""""""""""""""""""""""""
+
+There are times where a configuration needs to refer to objects
+external to the configuration, for example ``sys.stderr``. If the
+configuration dict is constructed using Python code, this is
+straightforward, but a problem arises when the configuration is
+provided via a text file (e.g. JSON, YAML). In a text file, there is
+no standard way to distinguish ``sys.stderr`` from the literal string
+``'sys.stderr'``. To facilitate this distinction, the configuration
+system looks for certain special prefixes in string values and
+treat them specially. For example, if the literal string
+``'ext://sys.stderr'`` is provided as a value in the configuration,
+then the ``ext://`` will be stripped off and the remainder of the
+value processed using normal import mechanisms.
+
+The handling of such prefixes is done in a way analogous to protocol
+handling: there is a generic mechanism to look for prefixes which
+match the regular expression ``^(?P<prefix>[a-z]+)://(?P<suffix>.*)$``
+whereby, if the ``prefix`` is recognised, the ``suffix`` is processed
+in a prefix-dependent manner and the result of the processing replaces
+the string value. If the prefix is not recognised, then the string
+value will be left as-is.
+
+
+.. _logging-config-dict-internalobj:
+
+Access to internal objects
+""""""""""""""""""""""""""
+
+As well as external objects, there is sometimes also a need to refer
+to objects in the configuration. This will be done implicitly by the
+configuration system for things that it knows about. For example, the
+string value ``'DEBUG'`` for a ``level`` in a logger or handler will
+automatically be converted to the value ``logging.DEBUG``, and the
+``handlers``, ``filters`` and ``formatter`` entries will take an
+object id and resolve to the appropriate destination object.
+
+However, a more generic mechanism is needed for user-defined
+objects which are not known to the :mod:`logging` module. For
+example, consider :class:`logging.handlers.MemoryHandler`, which takes
+a ``target`` argument which is another handler to delegate to. Since
+the system already knows about this class, then in the configuration,
+the given ``target`` just needs to be the object id of the relevant
+target handler, and the system will resolve to the handler from the
+id. If, however, a user defines a ``my.package.MyHandler`` which has
+an ``alternate`` handler, the configuration system would not know that
+the ``alternate`` referred to a handler. To cater for this, a generic
+resolution system allows the user to specify::
+
+ handlers:
+ file:
+ # configuration of file handler goes here
+
+ custom:
+ (): my.package.MyHandler
+ alternate: cfg://handlers.file
+
+The literal string ``'cfg://handlers.file'`` will be resolved in an
+analogous way to strings with the ``ext://`` prefix, but looking
+in the configuration itself rather than the import namespace. The
+mechanism allows access by dot or by index, in a similar way to
+that provided by ``str.format``. Thus, given the following snippet::
+
+ handlers:
+ email:
+ class: logging.handlers.SMTPHandler
+ mailhost: localhost
+ fromaddr: [email protected]
+ toaddrs:
+ - [email protected]
+ - [email protected]
+ subject: Houston, we have a problem.
+
+in the configuration, the string ``'cfg://handlers'`` would resolve to
+the dict with key ``handlers``, the string ``'cfg://handlers.email``
+would resolve to the dict with key ``email`` in the ``handlers`` dict,
+and so on. The string ``'cfg://handlers.email.toaddrs[1]`` would
+resolve to ``'dev_team.domain.tld'`` and the string
+``'cfg://handlers.email.toaddrs[0]'`` would resolve to the value
+``'[email protected]'``. The ``subject`` value could be accessed
+using either ``'cfg://handlers.email.subject'`` or, equivalently,
+``'cfg://handlers.email[subject]'``. The latter form only needs to be
+used if the key contains spaces or non-alphanumeric characters. If an
+index value consists only of decimal digits, access will be attempted
+using the corresponding integer value, falling back to the string
+value if needed.
+
+Given a string ``cfg://handlers.myhandler.mykey.123``, this will
+resolve to ``config_dict['handlers']['myhandler']['mykey']['123']``.
+If the string is specified as ``cfg://handlers.myhandler.mykey[123]``,
+the system will attempt to retrieve the value from
+``config_dict['handlers']['myhandler']['mykey'][123]``, and fall back
+to ``config_dict['handlers']['myhandler']['mykey']['123']`` if that
+fails.
+
+
+.. _logging-import-resolution:
+
+Import resolution and custom importers
+""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
+
+Import resolution, by default, uses the builtin :func:`__import__` function
+to do its importing. You may want to replace this with your own importing
+mechanism: if so, you can replace the :attr:`importer` attribute of the
+:class:`DictConfigurator` or its superclass, the
+:class:`BaseConfigurator` class. However, you need to be
+careful because of the way functions are accessed from classes via
+descriptors. If you are using a Python callable to do your imports, and you
+want to define it at class level rather than instance level, you need to wrap
+it with :func:`staticmethod`. For example::
+
+ from importlib import import_module
+ from logging.config import BaseConfigurator
+
+ BaseConfigurator.importer = staticmethod(import_module)
+
+You don't need to wrap with :func:`staticmethod` if you're setting the import
+callable on a configurator *instance*.
+
+
+.. _logging-config-fileformat:
+
+Configuration file format
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The configuration file format understood by :func:`fileConfig` is based on
+:mod:`configparser` functionality. The file must contain sections called
+``[loggers]``, ``[handlers]`` and ``[formatters]`` which identify by name the
+entities of each type which are defined in the file. For each such entity, there
+is a separate section which identifies how that entity is configured. Thus, for
+a logger named ``log01`` in the ``[loggers]`` section, the relevant
+configuration details are held in a section ``[logger_log01]``. Similarly, a
+handler called ``hand01`` in the ``[handlers]`` section will have its
+configuration held in a section called ``[handler_hand01]``, while a formatter
+called ``form01`` in the ``[formatters]`` section will have its configuration
+specified in a section called ``[formatter_form01]``. The root logger
+configuration must be specified in a section called ``[logger_root]``.
+
+Examples of these sections in the file are given below. ::
+
+ [loggers]
+ keys=root,log02,log03,log04,log05,log06,log07
+
+ [handlers]
+ keys=hand01,hand02,hand03,hand04,hand05,hand06,hand07,hand08,hand09
+
+ [formatters]
+ keys=form01,form02,form03,form04,form05,form06,form07,form08,form09
+
+The root logger must specify a level and a list of handlers. An example of a
+root logger section is given below. ::
+
+ [logger_root]
+ level=NOTSET
+ handlers=hand01
+
+The ``level`` entry can be one of ``DEBUG, INFO, WARNING, ERROR, CRITICAL`` or
+``NOTSET``. For the root logger only, ``NOTSET`` means that all messages will be
+logged. Level values are :func:`eval`\ uated in the context of the ``logging``
+package's namespace.
+
+The ``handlers`` entry is a comma-separated list of handler names, which must
+appear in the ``[handlers]`` section. These names must appear in the
+``[handlers]`` section and have corresponding sections in the configuration
+file.
+
+For loggers other than the root logger, some additional information is required.
+This is illustrated by the following example. ::
+
+ [logger_parser]
+ level=DEBUG
+ handlers=hand01
+ propagate=1
+ qualname=compiler.parser
+
+The ``level`` and ``handlers`` entries are interpreted as for the root logger,
+except that if a non-root logger's level is specified as ``NOTSET``, the system
+consults loggers higher up the hierarchy to determine the effective level of the
+logger. The ``propagate`` entry is set to 1 to indicate that messages must
+propagate to handlers higher up the logger hierarchy from this logger, or 0 to
+indicate that messages are **not** propagated to handlers up the hierarchy. The
+``qualname`` entry is the hierarchical channel name of the logger, that is to
+say the name used by the application to get the logger.
+
+Sections which specify handler configuration are exemplified by the following.
+::
+
+ [handler_hand01]
+ class=StreamHandler
+ level=NOTSET
+ formatter=form01
+ args=(sys.stdout,)
+
+The ``class`` entry indicates the handler's class (as determined by :func:`eval`
+in the ``logging`` package's namespace). The ``level`` is interpreted as for
+loggers, and ``NOTSET`` is taken to mean 'log everything'.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ Added support for resolving the handler’s class as a dotted module and
+ class name.
+
+The ``formatter`` entry indicates the key name of the formatter for this
+handler. If blank, a default formatter (``logging._defaultFormatter``) is used.
+If a name is specified, it must appear in the ``[formatters]`` section and have
+a corresponding section in the configuration file.
+
+The ``args`` entry, when :func:`eval`\ uated in the context of the ``logging``
+package's namespace, is the list of arguments to the constructor for the handler
+class. Refer to the constructors for the relevant handlers, or to the examples
+below, to see how typical entries are constructed. ::
+
+ [handler_hand02]
+ class=FileHandler
+ level=DEBUG
+ formatter=form02
+ args=('python.log', 'w')
+
+ [handler_hand03]
+ class=handlers.SocketHandler
+ level=INFO
+ formatter=form03
+ args=('localhost', handlers.DEFAULT_TCP_LOGGING_PORT)
+
+ [handler_hand04]
+ class=handlers.DatagramHandler
+ level=WARN
+ formatter=form04
+ args=('localhost', handlers.DEFAULT_UDP_LOGGING_PORT)
+
+ [handler_hand05]
+ class=handlers.SysLogHandler
+ level=ERROR
+ formatter=form05
+ args=(('localhost', handlers.SYSLOG_UDP_PORT), handlers.SysLogHandler.LOG_USER)
+
+ [handler_hand06]
+ class=handlers.NTEventLogHandler
+ level=CRITICAL
+ formatter=form06
+ args=('Python Application', '', 'Application')
+
+ [handler_hand07]
+ class=handlers.SMTPHandler
+ level=WARN
+ formatter=form07
+ args=('localhost', 'from@abc', ['user1@abc', 'user2@xyz'], 'Logger Subject')
+
+ [handler_hand08]
+ class=handlers.MemoryHandler
+ level=NOTSET
+ formatter=form08
+ target=
+ args=(10, ERROR)
+
+ [handler_hand09]
+ class=handlers.HTTPHandler
+ level=NOTSET
+ formatter=form09
+ args=('localhost:9022', '/log', 'GET')
+
+Sections which specify formatter configuration are typified by the following. ::
+
+ [formatter_form01]
+ format=F1 %(asctime)s %(levelname)s %(message)s
+ datefmt=
+ class=logging.Formatter
+
+The ``format`` entry is the overall format string, and the ``datefmt`` entry is
+the :func:`strftime`\ -compatible date/time format string. If empty, the
+package substitutes ISO8601 format date/times, which is almost equivalent to
+specifying the date format string ``'%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S'``. The ISO8601 format
+also specifies milliseconds, which are appended to the result of using the above
+format string, with a comma separator. An example time in ISO8601 format is
+``2003-01-23 00:29:50,411``.
+
+The ``class`` entry is optional. It indicates the name of the formatter's class
+(as a dotted module and class name.) This option is useful for instantiating a
+:class:`Formatter` subclass. Subclasses of :class:`Formatter` can present
+exception tracebacks in an expanded or condensed format.
+
+.. note:: Due to the use of :func:`eval` as described above, there are
+ potential security risks which result from using the :func:`listen` to send
+ and receive configurations via sockets. The risks are limited to where
+ multiple users with no mutual trust run code on the same machine; see the
+ :func:`listen` documentation for more information.

+
+.. currentmodule:: logging
+
+The following useful handlers are provided in the package. Note that three of
+the handlers (:class:`StreamHandler`, :class:`FileHandler` and
+:class:`NullHandler`) are actually defined in the :mod:`logging` module itself,
+but have been documented here along with the other handlers.
+
+.. _stream-handler:
+
+StreamHandler
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The :class:`StreamHandler` class, located in the core :mod:`logging` package,
+sends logging output to streams such as *sys.stdout*, *sys.stderr* or any
+file-like object (or, more precisely, any object which supports :meth:`write`
+and :meth:`flush` methods).
+
+
+.. class:: StreamHandler(stream=None)
+
+ Returns a new instance of the :class:`StreamHandler` class. If *stream* is
+ specified, the instance will use it for logging output; otherwise, *sys.stderr*
+ will be used.
+
+
+ .. method:: emit(record)
+
+ If a formatter is specified, it is used to format the record. The record
+ is then written to the stream with a newline terminator. If exception
+ information is present, it is formatted using
+ :func:`traceback.print_exception` and appended to the stream.
+
+
+ .. method:: flush()
+
+ Flushes the stream by calling its :meth:`flush` method. Note that the
+ :meth:`close` method is inherited from :class:`Handler` and so does
+ no output, so an explicit :meth:`flush` call may be needed at times.
+
+.. _file-handler:
+
+FileHandler
+^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The :class:`FileHandler` class, located in the core :mod:`logging` package,
+sends logging output to a disk file. It inherits the output functionality from
+:class:`StreamHandler`.
+
+
+.. class:: FileHandler(filename, mode='a', encoding=None, delay=False)
+
+ Returns a new instance of the :class:`FileHandler` class. The specified file is
+ opened and used as the stream for logging. If *mode* is not specified,
+ :const:`'a'` is used. If *encoding* is not *None*, it is used to open the file
+ with that encoding. If *delay* is true, then file opening is deferred until the
+ first call to :meth:`emit`. By default, the file grows indefinitely.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ *delay* was added.
+
+ .. method:: close()
+
+ Closes the file.
+
+
+ .. method:: emit(record)
+
+ Outputs the record to the file.
+
+
+.. _null-handler:
+
+NullHandler
+^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+The :class:`NullHandler` class, located in the core :mod:`logging` package,
+does not do any formatting or output. It is essentially a 'no-op' handler
+for use by library developers.
+
+.. class:: NullHandler()
+
+ Returns a new instance of the :class:`NullHandler` class.
+
+ .. method:: emit(record)
+
+ This method does nothing.
+
+ .. method:: handle(record)
+
+ This method does nothing.
+
+ .. method:: createLock()
+
+ This method returns ``None`` for the lock, since there is no
+ underlying I/O to which access needs to be serialized.
+
+
+See :ref:`library-config` for more information on how to use
+:class:`NullHandler`.
+
+.. _watched-file-handler:
+
+WatchedFileHandler
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. currentmodule:: logging.handlers
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+The :class:`WatchedFileHandler` class, located in the :mod:`logging.handlers`
+module, is a :class:`FileHandler` which watches the file it is logging to. If
+the file changes, it is closed and reopened using the file name.
+
+A file change can happen because of usage of programs such as *newsyslog* and
+*logrotate* which perform log file rotation. This handler, intended for use
+under Unix/Linux, watches the file to see if it has changed since the last emit.
+(A file is deemed to have changed if its device or inode have changed.) If the
+file has changed, the old file stream is closed, and the file opened to get a
+new stream.
+
+This handler is not appropriate for use under Windows, because under Windows
+open log files cannot be moved or renamed - logging opens the files with
+exclusive locks - and so there is no need for such a handler. Furthermore,
+*ST_INO* is not supported under Windows; :func:`stat` always returns zero for
+this value.
+
+
+.. class:: WatchedFileHandler(filename[,mode[, encoding[, delay]]])
+
+ Returns a new instance of the :class:`WatchedFileHandler` class. The specified
+ file is opened and used as the stream for logging. If *mode* is not specified,
+ :const:`'a'` is used. If *encoding* is not *None*, it is used to open the file
+ with that encoding. If *delay* is true, then file opening is deferred until the
+ first call to :meth:`emit`. By default, the file grows indefinitely.
+
+
+ .. method:: emit(record)
+
+ Outputs the record to the file, but first checks to see if the file has
+ changed. If it has, the existing stream is flushed and closed and the
+ file opened again, before outputting the record to the file.
+
+.. _rotating-file-handler:
+
+RotatingFileHandler
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The :class:`RotatingFileHandler` class, located in the :mod:`logging.handlers`
+module, supports rotation of disk log files.
+
+
+.. class:: RotatingFileHandler(filename, mode='a', maxBytes=0, backupCount=0, encoding=None, delay=0)
+
+ Returns a new instance of the :class:`RotatingFileHandler` class. The specified
+ file is opened and used as the stream for logging. If *mode* is not specified,
+ ``'a'`` is used. If *encoding* is not *None*, it is used to open the file
+ with that encoding. If *delay* is true, then file opening is deferred until the
+ first call to :meth:`emit`. By default, the file grows indefinitely.
+
+ You can use the *maxBytes* and *backupCount* values to allow the file to
+ :dfn:`rollover` at a predetermined size. When the size is about to be exceeded,
+ the file is closed and a new file is silently opened for output. Rollover occurs
+ whenever the current log file is nearly *maxBytes* in length; if *maxBytes* is
+ zero, rollover never occurs. If *backupCount* is non-zero, the system will save
+ old log files by appending the extensions '.1', '.2' etc., to the filename. For
+ example, with a *backupCount* of 5 and a base file name of :file:`app.log`, you
+ would get :file:`app.log`, :file:`app.log.1`, :file:`app.log.2`, up to
+ :file:`app.log.5`. The file being written to is always :file:`app.log`. When
+ this file is filled, it is closed and renamed to :file:`app.log.1`, and if files
+ :file:`app.log.1`, :file:`app.log.2`, etc. exist, then they are renamed to
+ :file:`app.log.2`, :file:`app.log.3` etc. respectively.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ *delay* was added.
+
+
+ .. method:: doRollover()
+
+ Does a rollover, as described above.
+
+
+ .. method:: emit(record)
+
+ Outputs the record to the file, catering for rollover as described
+ previously.
+
+.. _timed-rotating-file-handler:
+
+TimedRotatingFileHandler
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The :class:`TimedRotatingFileHandler` class, located in the
+:mod:`logging.handlers` module, supports rotation of disk log files at certain
+timed intervals.
+
+
+.. class:: TimedRotatingFileHandler(filename, when='h', interval=1, backupCount=0, encoding=None, delay=False, utc=False)
+
+ Returns a new instance of the :class:`TimedRotatingFileHandler` class. The
+ specified file is opened and used as the stream for logging. On rotating it also
+ sets the filename suffix. Rotating happens based on the product of *when* and
+ *interval*.
+
+ You can use the *when* to specify the type of *interval*. The list of possible
+ values is below. Note that they are not case sensitive.
+
+ +----------------+-----------------------+
+ | Value | Type of interval |
+ +================+=======================+
+ | ``'S'`` | Seconds |
+ +----------------+-----------------------+
+ | ``'M'`` | Minutes |
+ +----------------+-----------------------+
+ | ``'H'`` | Hours |
+ +----------------+-----------------------+
+ | ``'D'`` | Days |
+ +----------------+-----------------------+
+ | ``'W0'-'W6'`` | Weekday (0=Monday) |
+ +----------------+-----------------------+
+ | ``'midnight'`` | Roll over at midnight |
+ +----------------+-----------------------+
+
+ When using weekday-based rotation, specify 'W0' for Monday, 'W1' for
+ Tuesday, and so on up to 'W6' for Sunday. In this case, the value passed for
+ *interval* isn't used.
+
+ The system will save old log files by appending extensions to the filename.
+ The extensions are date-and-time based, using the strftime format
+ ``%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S`` or a leading portion thereof, depending on the
+ rollover interval.
+
+ When computing the next rollover time for the first time (when the handler
+ is created), the last modification time of an existing log file, or else
+ the current time, is used to compute when the next rotation will occur.
+
+ If the *utc* argument is true, times in UTC will be used; otherwise
+ local time is used.
+
+ If *backupCount* is nonzero, at most *backupCount* files
+ will be kept, and if more would be created when rollover occurs, the oldest
+ one is deleted. The deletion logic uses the interval to determine which
+ files to delete, so changing the interval may leave old files lying around.
+
+ If *delay* is true, then file opening is deferred until the first call to
+ :meth:`emit`.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ *delay* and *utc* were added.
+
+
+ .. method:: doRollover()
+
+ Does a rollover, as described above.
+
+
+ .. method:: emit(record)
+
+ Outputs the record to the file, catering for rollover as described above.
+
+
+.. _socket-handler:
+
+SocketHandler
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The :class:`SocketHandler` class, located in the :mod:`logging.handlers` module,
+sends logging output to a network socket. The base class uses a TCP socket.
+
+
+.. class:: SocketHandler(host, port)
+
+ Returns a new instance of the :class:`SocketHandler` class intended to
+ communicate with a remote machine whose address is given by *host* and *port*.
+
+
+ .. method:: close()
+
+ Closes the socket.
+
+
+ .. method:: emit()
+
+ Pickles the record's attribute dictionary and writes it to the socket in
+ binary format. If there is an error with the socket, silently drops the
+ packet. If the connection was previously lost, re-establishes the
+ connection. To unpickle the record at the receiving end into a
+ :class:`LogRecord`, use the :func:`makeLogRecord` function.
+
+
+ .. method:: handleError()
+
+ Handles an error which has occurred during :meth:`emit`. The most likely
+ cause is a lost connection. Closes the socket so that we can retry on the
+ next event.
+
+
+ .. method:: makeSocket()
+
+ This is a factory method which allows subclasses to define the precise
+ type of socket they want. The default implementation creates a TCP socket
+ (:const:`socket.SOCK_STREAM`).
+
+
+ .. method:: makePickle(record)
+
+ Pickles the record's attribute dictionary in binary format with a length
+ prefix, and returns it ready for transmission across the socket.
+
+ Note that pickles aren't completely secure. If you are concerned about
+ security, you may want to override this method to implement a more secure
+ mechanism. For example, you can sign pickles using HMAC and then verify
+ them on the receiving end, or alternatively you can disable unpickling of
+ global objects on the receiving end.
+
+
+ .. method:: send(packet)
+
+ Send a pickled string *packet* to the socket. This function allows for
+ partial sends which can happen when the network is busy.
+
+
+ .. method:: createSocket()
+
+ Tries to create a socket; on failure, uses an exponential back-off
+ algorithm. On intial failure, the handler will drop the message it was
+ trying to send. When subsequent messages are handled by the same
+ instance, it will not try connecting until some time has passed. The
+ default parameters are such that the initial delay is one second, and if
+ after that delay the connection still can't be made, the handler will
+ double the delay each time up to a maximum of 30 seconds.
+
+ This behaviour is controlled by the following handler attributes:
+
+ * ``retryStart`` (initial delay, defaulting to 1.0 seconds).
+ * ``retryFactor`` (multiplier, defaulting to 2.0).
+ * ``retryMax`` (maximum delay, defaulting to 30.0 seconds).
+
+ This means that if the remote listener starts up *after* the handler has
+ been used, you could lose messages (since the handler won't even attempt
+ a connection until the delay has elapsed, but just silently drop messages
+ during the delay period).
+
+
+.. _datagram-handler:
+
+DatagramHandler
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The :class:`DatagramHandler` class, located in the :mod:`logging.handlers`
+module, inherits from :class:`SocketHandler` to support sending logging messages
+over UDP sockets.
+
+
+.. class:: DatagramHandler(host, port)
+
+ Returns a new instance of the :class:`DatagramHandler` class intended to
+ communicate with a remote machine whose address is given by *host* and *port*.
+
+
+ .. method:: emit()
+
+ Pickles the record's attribute dictionary and writes it to the socket in
+ binary format. If there is an error with the socket, silently drops the
+ packet. To unpickle the record at the receiving end into a
+ :class:`LogRecord`, use the :func:`makeLogRecord` function.
+
+
+ .. method:: makeSocket()
+
+ The factory method of :class:`SocketHandler` is here overridden to create
+ a UDP socket (:const:`socket.SOCK_DGRAM`).
+
+
+ .. method:: send(s)
+
+ Send a pickled string to a socket.
+
+
+.. _syslog-handler:
+
+SysLogHandler
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The :class:`SysLogHandler` class, located in the :mod:`logging.handlers` module,
+supports sending logging messages to a remote or local Unix syslog.
+
+
+.. class:: SysLogHandler(address=('localhost', SYSLOG_UDP_PORT), facility=LOG_USER, socktype=socket.SOCK_DGRAM)
+
+ Returns a new instance of the :class:`SysLogHandler` class intended to
+ communicate with a remote Unix machine whose address is given by *address* in
+ the form of a ``(host, port)`` tuple. If *address* is not specified,
+ ``('localhost', 514)`` is used. The address is used to open a socket. An
+ alternative to providing a ``(host, port)`` tuple is providing an address as a
+ string, for example '/dev/log'. In this case, a Unix domain socket is used to
+ send the message to the syslog. If *facility* is not specified,
+ :const:`LOG_USER` is used. The type of socket opened depends on the
+ *socktype* argument, which defaults to :const:`socket.SOCK_DGRAM` and thus
+ opens a UDP socket. To open a TCP socket (for use with the newer syslog
+ daemons such as rsyslog), specify a value of :const:`socket.SOCK_STREAM`.
+
+ Note that if your server is not listening on UDP port 514,
+ :class:`SysLogHandler` may appear not to work. In that case, check what
+ address you should be using for a domain socket - it's system dependent.
+ For example, on Linux it's usually '/dev/log' but on OS/X it's
+ '/var/run/syslog'. You'll need to check your platform and use the
+ appropriate address (you may need to do this check at runtime if your
+ application needs to run on several platforms). On Windows, you pretty
+ much have to use the UDP option.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ *socktype* was added.
+
+
+ .. method:: close()
+
+ Closes the socket to the remote host.
+
+
+ .. method:: emit(record)
+
+ The record is formatted, and then sent to the syslog server. If exception
+ information is present, it is *not* sent to the server.
+
+
+ .. method:: encodePriority(facility, priority)
+
+ Encodes the facility and priority into an integer. You can pass in strings
+ or integers - if strings are passed, internal mapping dictionaries are
+ used to convert them to integers.
+
+ The symbolic ``LOG_`` values are defined in :class:`SysLogHandler` and
+ mirror the values defined in the ``sys/syslog.h`` header file.

+
+ .. method:: mapPriority(levelname)
+
+ Maps a logging level name to a syslog priority name.
+ You may need to override this if you are using custom levels, or
+ if the default algorithm is not suitable for your needs. The
+ default algorithm maps ``DEBUG``, ``INFO``, ``WARNING``, ``ERROR`` and
+ ``CRITICAL`` to the equivalent syslog names, and all other level
+ names to 'warning'.
+
+.. _nt-eventlog-handler:
+
+NTEventLogHandler
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The :class:`NTEventLogHandler` class, located in the :mod:`logging.handlers`
+module, supports sending logging messages to a local Windows NT, Windows 2000 or
+Windows XP event log. Before you can use it, you need Mark Hammond's Win32
+extensions for Python installed.
+
+
+.. class:: NTEventLogHandler(appname, dllname=None, logtype='Application')
+
+ Returns a new instance of the :class:`NTEventLogHandler` class. The *appname* is
+ used to define the application name as it appears in the event log. An
+ appropriate registry entry is created using this name. The *dllname* should give
+ the fully qualified pathname of a .dll or .exe which contains message
+ definitions to hold in the log (if not specified, ``'win32service.pyd'`` is used
+ - this is installed with the Win32 extensions and contains some basic
+ placeholder message definitions. Note that use of these placeholders will make
+ your event logs big, as the entire message source is held in the log. If you
+ want slimmer logs, you have to pass in the name of your own .dll or .exe which
+ contains the message definitions you want to use in the event log). The
+ *logtype* is one of ``'Application'``, ``'System'`` or ``'Security'``, and
+ defaults to ``'Application'``.
+
+
+ .. method:: close()
+
+ At this point, you can remove the application name from the registry as a
+ source of event log entries. However, if you do this, you will not be able
+ to see the events as you intended in the Event Log Viewer - it needs to be
+ able to access the registry to get the .dll name. The current version does
+ not do this.
+
+
+ .. method:: emit(record)
+
+ Determines the message ID, event category and event type, and then logs
+ the message in the NT event log.
+
+
+ .. method:: getEventCategory(record)
+
+ Returns the event category for the record. Override this if you want to
+ specify your own categories. This version returns 0.
+
+
+ .. method:: getEventType(record)
+
+ Returns the event type for the record. Override this if you want to
+ specify your own types. This version does a mapping using the handler's
+ typemap attribute, which is set up in :meth:`__init__` to a dictionary
+ which contains mappings for :const:`DEBUG`, :const:`INFO`,
+ :const:`WARNING`, :const:`ERROR` and :const:`CRITICAL`. If you are using
+ your own levels, you will either need to override this method or place a
+ suitable dictionary in the handler's *typemap* attribute.
+
+
+ .. method:: getMessageID(record)
+
+ Returns the message ID for the record. If you are using your own messages,
+ you could do this by having the *msg* passed to the logger being an ID
+ rather than a format string. Then, in here, you could use a dictionary
+ lookup to get the message ID. This version returns 1, which is the base
+ message ID in :file:`win32service.pyd`.
+
+.. _smtp-handler:
+
+SMTPHandler
+^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The :class:`SMTPHandler` class, located in the :mod:`logging.handlers` module,
+supports sending logging messages to an email address via SMTP.
+
+
+.. class:: SMTPHandler(mailhost, fromaddr, toaddrs, subject, credentials=None, secure=None)
+
+ Returns a new instance of the :class:`SMTPHandler` class. The instance is
+ initialized with the from and to addresses and subject line of the email.
+ The *toaddrs* should be a list of strings. To specify a non-standard SMTP
+ port, use the (host, port) tuple format for the *mailhost* argument. If you
+ use a string, the standard SMTP port is used. If your SMTP server requires
+ authentication, you can specify a (username, password) tuple for the
+ *credentials* argument.
+
+ To specify the use of a secure protocol (TLS), pass in a tuple to the
+ *secure* argument. This will only be used when authentication credentials are
+ supplied. The tuple should be either an empty tuple, or a single-value tuple
+ with the name of a keyfile, or a 2-value tuple with the names of the keyfile
+ and certificate file. (This tuple is passed to the
+ :meth:`smtplib.SMTP.starttls` method.)
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ *credentials* was added.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ *secure* was added.
+
+
+ .. method:: emit(record)
+
+ Formats the record and sends it to the specified addressees.
+
+
+ .. method:: getSubject(record)
+
+ If you want to specify a subject line which is record-dependent, override
+ this method.
+
+.. _memory-handler:
+
+MemoryHandler
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The :class:`MemoryHandler` class, located in the :mod:`logging.handlers` module,
+supports buffering of logging records in memory, periodically flushing them to a
+:dfn:`target` handler. Flushing occurs whenever the buffer is full, or when an
+event of a certain severity or greater is seen.
+
+:class:`MemoryHandler` is a subclass of the more general
+:class:`BufferingHandler`, which is an abstract class. This buffers logging
+records in memory. Whenever each record is added to the buffer, a check is made
+by calling :meth:`shouldFlush` to see if the buffer should be flushed. If it
+should, then :meth:`flush` is expected to do the flushing.
+
+
+.. class:: BufferingHandler(capacity)
+
+ Initializes the handler with a buffer of the specified capacity.
+
+
+ .. method:: emit(record)
+
+ Appends the record to the buffer. If :meth:`shouldFlush` returns true,
+ calls :meth:`flush` to process the buffer.
+
+
+ .. method:: flush()
+
+ You can override this to implement custom flushing behavior. This version
+ just zaps the buffer to empty.
+
+
+ .. method:: shouldFlush(record)
+
+ Returns true if the buffer is up to capacity. This method can be
+ overridden to implement custom flushing strategies.
+
+
+.. class:: MemoryHandler(capacity, flushLevel=ERROR, target=None)
+
+ Returns a new instance of the :class:`MemoryHandler` class. The instance is
+ initialized with a buffer size of *capacity*. If *flushLevel* is not specified,
+ :const:`ERROR` is used. If no *target* is specified, the target will need to be
+ set using :meth:`setTarget` before this handler does anything useful.
+
+
+ .. method:: close()
+
+ Calls :meth:`flush`, sets the target to :const:`None` and clears the
+ buffer.
+
+
+ .. method:: flush()
+
+ For a :class:`MemoryHandler`, flushing means just sending the buffered
+ records to the target, if there is one. The buffer is also cleared when
+ this happens. Override if you want different behavior.
+
+
+ .. method:: setTarget(target)
+
+ Sets the target handler for this handler.
+
+
+ .. method:: shouldFlush(record)
+
+ Checks for buffer full or a record at the *flushLevel* or higher.
+
+
+.. _http-handler:
+
+HTTPHandler
+^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The :class:`HTTPHandler` class, located in the :mod:`logging.handlers` module,
+supports sending logging messages to a Web server, using either ``GET`` or
+``POST`` semantics.
+
+
+.. class:: HTTPHandler(host, url, method='GET')
+
+ Returns a new instance of the :class:`HTTPHandler` class. The *host* can be
+ of the form ``host:port``, should you need to use a specific port number.
+ If no *method* is specified, ``GET`` is used.
+
+
+ .. method:: emit(record)
+
+ Sends the record to the Web server as a percent-encoded dictionary.

+
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+This module defines functions and classes which implement a flexible event
+logging system for applications and libraries.
+
+The key benefit of having the logging API provided by a standard library module
+is that all Python modules can participate in logging, so your application log
+can include your own messages integrated with messages from third-party
+modules.
+
+The module provides a lot of functionality and flexibility. If you are
+unfamiliar with logging, the best way to get to grips with it is to see the
+tutorials (see the links on the right).
+
+The basic classes defined by the module, together with their functions, are
+listed below.
+
+* Loggers expose the interface that application code directly uses.
+* Handlers send the log records (created by loggers) to the appropriate
+ destination.
+* Filters provide a finer grained facility for determining which log records
+ to output.
+* Formatters specify the layout of log records in the final output.
+
+
+.. _logger:
+
+Logger Objects
+--------------
+
+Loggers have the following attributes and methods. Note that Loggers are never
+instantiated directly, but always through the module-level function
+``logging.getLogger(name)``. Multiple calls to :func:`getLogger` with the same
+name will always return a reference to the same Logger object.
+
+The ``name`` is potentially a period-separated hierarchical value, like
+``foo.bar.baz`` (though it could also be just plain ``foo``, for example).
+Loggers that are further down in the hierarchical list are children of loggers
+higher up in the list. For example, given a logger with a name of ``foo``,
+loggers with names of ``foo.bar``, ``foo.bar.baz``, and ``foo.bam`` are all
+descendants of ``foo``. The logger name hierarchy is analogous to the Python
+package hierarchy, and identical to it if you organise your loggers on a
+per-module basis using the recommended construction
+``logging.getLogger(__name__)``. That's because in a module, ``__name__``
+is the module's name in the Python package namespace.
+
+
+.. class:: Logger
+
+.. attribute:: Logger.propagate
+
+ If this evaluates to true, events logged to this logger will be passed to the
+ handlers of higher level (ancestor) loggers, in addition to any handlers
+ attached to this logger. Messages are passed directly to the ancestor
+ loggers' handlers - neither the level nor filters of the ancestor loggers in
+ question are considered.
+
+ If this evaluates to false, logging messages are not passed to the handlers
+ of ancestor loggers.
+
+ The constructor sets this attribute to ``True``.
+
+ .. note:: If you attach a handler to a logger *and* one or more of its
+ ancestors, it may emit the same record multiple times. In general, you
+ should not need to attach a handler to more than one logger - if you just
+ attach it to the appropriate logger which is highest in the logger
+ hierarchy, then it will see all events logged by all descendant loggers,
+ provided that their propagate setting is left set to ``True``. A common
+ scenario is to attach handlers only to the root logger, and to let
+ propagation take care of the rest.
+
+.. method:: Logger.setLevel(lvl)
+
+ Sets the threshold for this logger to *lvl*. Logging messages which are less
+ severe than *lvl* will be ignored. When a logger is created, the level is set to
+ :const:`NOTSET` (which causes all messages to be processed when the logger is
+ the root logger, or delegation to the parent when the logger is a non-root
+ logger). Note that the root logger is created with level :const:`WARNING`.
+
+ The term 'delegation to the parent' means that if a logger has a level of
+ NOTSET, its chain of ancestor loggers is traversed until either an ancestor with
+ a level other than NOTSET is found, or the root is reached.
+
+ If an ancestor is found with a level other than NOTSET, then that ancestor's
+ level is treated as the effective level of the logger where the ancestor search
+ began, and is used to determine how a logging event is handled.
+
+ If the root is reached, and it has a level of NOTSET, then all messages will be
+ processed. Otherwise, the root's level will be used as the effective level.
+
+
+.. method:: Logger.isEnabledFor(lvl)
+
+ Indicates if a message of severity *lvl* would be processed by this logger.
+ This method checks first the module-level level set by
+ ``logging.disable(lvl)`` and then the logger's effective level as determined
+ by :meth:`getEffectiveLevel`.
+
+
+.. method:: Logger.getEffectiveLevel()
+
+ Indicates the effective level for this logger. If a value other than
+ :const:`NOTSET` has been set using :meth:`setLevel`, it is returned. Otherwise,
+ the hierarchy is traversed towards the root until a value other than
+ :const:`NOTSET` is found, and that value is returned.
+
+
+.. method:: Logger.getChild(suffix)
+
+ Returns a logger which is a descendant to this logger, as determined by the suffix.
+ Thus, ``logging.getLogger('abc').getChild('def.ghi')`` would return the same
+ logger as would be returned by ``logging.getLogger('abc.def.ghi')``. This is a
+ convenience method, useful when the parent logger is named using e.g. ``__name__``
+ rather than a literal string.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+.. method:: Logger.debug(msg, *args, **kwargs)
+
+ Logs a message with level :const:`DEBUG` on this logger. The *msg* is the
+ message format string, and the *args* are the arguments which are merged into
+ *msg* using the string formatting operator. (Note that this means that you can
+ use keywords in the format string, together with a single dictionary argument.)
+
+ There are two keyword arguments in *kwargs* which are inspected: *exc_info*
+ which, if it does not evaluate as false, causes exception information to be
+ added to the logging message. If an exception tuple (in the format returned by
+ :func:`sys.exc_info`) is provided, it is used; otherwise, :func:`sys.exc_info`
+ is called to get the exception information.
+
+ The second keyword argument is *extra* which can be used to pass a
+ dictionary which is used to populate the __dict__ of the LogRecord created for
+ the logging event with user-defined attributes. These custom attributes can then
+ be used as you like. For example, they could be incorporated into logged
+ messages. For example::
+
+ FORMAT = '%(asctime)-15s %(clientip)s %(user)-8s %(message)s'
+ logging.basicConfig(format=FORMAT)
+ d = {'clientip': '192.168.0.1', 'user': 'fbloggs'}
+ logger = logging.getLogger('tcpserver')
+ logger.warning('Protocol problem: %s', 'connection reset', extra=d)
+
+ would print something like ::
+
+ 2006-02-08 22:20:02,165 192.168.0.1 fbloggs Protocol problem: connection reset
+
+ The keys in the dictionary passed in *extra* should not clash with the keys used
+ by the logging system. (See the :class:`Formatter` documentation for more
+ information on which keys are used by the logging system.)
+
+ If you choose to use these attributes in logged messages, you need to exercise
+ some care. In the above example, for instance, the :class:`Formatter` has been
+ set up with a format string which expects 'clientip' and 'user' in the attribute
+ dictionary of the LogRecord. If these are missing, the message will not be
+ logged because a string formatting exception will occur. So in this case, you
+ always need to pass the *extra* dictionary with these keys.
+
+ While this might be annoying, this feature is intended for use in specialized
+ circumstances, such as multi-threaded servers where the same code executes in
+ many contexts, and interesting conditions which arise are dependent on this
+ context (such as remote client IP address and authenticated user name, in the
+ above example). In such circumstances, it is likely that specialized
+ :class:`Formatter`\ s would be used with particular :class:`Handler`\ s.
+
+
+.. method:: Logger.info(msg, *args, **kwargs)
+
+ Logs a message with level :const:`INFO` on this logger. The arguments are
+ interpreted as for :meth:`debug`.
+
+
+.. method:: Logger.warning(msg, *args, **kwargs)
+
+ Logs a message with level :const:`WARNING` on this logger. The arguments are
+ interpreted as for :meth:`debug`.
+
+
+.. method:: Logger.error(msg, *args, **kwargs)
+
+ Logs a message with level :const:`ERROR` on this logger. The arguments are
+ interpreted as for :meth:`debug`.
+
+
+.. method:: Logger.critical(msg, *args, **kwargs)
+
+ Logs a message with level :const:`CRITICAL` on this logger. The arguments are
+ interpreted as for :meth:`debug`.
+
+
+.. method:: Logger.log(lvl, msg, *args, **kwargs)
+
+ Logs a message with integer level *lvl* on this logger. The other arguments are
+ interpreted as for :meth:`debug`.
+
+
+.. method:: Logger.exception(msg, *args)
+
+ Logs a message with level :const:`ERROR` on this logger. The arguments are
+ interpreted as for :meth:`debug`. Exception info is added to the logging
+ message. This method should only be called from an exception handler.
+
+
+.. method:: Logger.addFilter(filt)
+
+ Adds the specified filter *filt* to this logger.
+
+
+.. method:: Logger.removeFilter(filt)
+
+ Removes the specified filter *filt* from this logger.
+
+
+.. method:: Logger.filter(record)
+
+ Applies this logger's filters to the record and returns a true value if the
+ record is to be processed. The filters are consulted in turn, until one of
+ them returns a false value. If none of them return a false value, the record
+ will be processed (passed to handlers). If one returns a false value, no
+ further processing of the record occurs.
+
+
+.. method:: Logger.addHandler(hdlr)
+
+ Adds the specified handler *hdlr* to this logger.
+
+
+.. method:: Logger.removeHandler(hdlr)
+
+ Removes the specified handler *hdlr* from this logger.
+
+
+.. method:: Logger.findCaller()
+
+ Finds the caller's source filename and line number. Returns the filename, line
+ number and function name as a 3-element tuple.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ The function name was added. In earlier versions, the filename and line
+ number were returned as a 2-element tuple.
+
+.. method:: Logger.handle(record)
+
+ Handles a record by passing it to all handlers associated with this logger and
+ its ancestors (until a false value of *propagate* is found). This method is used
+ for unpickled records received from a socket, as well as those created locally.
+ Logger-level filtering is applied using :meth:`~Logger.filter`.
+
+
+.. method:: Logger.makeRecord(name, lvl, fn, lno, msg, args, exc_info, func=None, extra=None)
+
+ This is a factory method which can be overridden in subclasses to create
+ specialized :class:`LogRecord` instances.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ *func* and *extra* were added.
+
+.. _handler:
+
+Handler Objects
+---------------
+
+Handlers have the following attributes and methods. Note that :class:`Handler`
+is never instantiated directly; this class acts as a base for more useful
+subclasses. However, the :meth:`__init__` method in subclasses needs to call
+:meth:`Handler.__init__`.
+
+
+.. method:: Handler.__init__(level=NOTSET)
+
+ Initializes the :class:`Handler` instance by setting its level, setting the list
+ of filters to the empty list and creating a lock (using :meth:`createLock`) for
+ serializing access to an I/O mechanism.
+
+
+.. method:: Handler.createLock()
+
+ Initializes a thread lock which can be used to serialize access to underlying
+ I/O functionality which may not be threadsafe.
+
+
+.. method:: Handler.acquire()
+
+ Acquires the thread lock created with :meth:`createLock`.
+
+
+.. method:: Handler.release()
+
+ Releases the thread lock acquired with :meth:`acquire`.
+
+
+.. method:: Handler.setLevel(lvl)
+
+ Sets the threshold for this handler to *lvl*. Logging messages which are less
+ severe than *lvl* will be ignored. When a handler is created, the level is set
+ to :const:`NOTSET` (which causes all messages to be processed).
+
+
+.. method:: Handler.setFormatter(form)
+
+ Sets the :class:`Formatter` for this handler to *form*.
+
+
+.. method:: Handler.addFilter(filt)
+
+ Adds the specified filter *filt* to this handler.
+
+
+.. method:: Handler.removeFilter(filt)
+
+ Removes the specified filter *filt* from this handler.
+
+
+.. method:: Handler.filter(record)
+
+ Applies this handler's filters to the record and returns a true value if the
+ record is to be processed. The filters are consulted in turn, until one of
+ them returns a false value. If none of them return a false value, the record
+ will be emitted. If one returns a false value, the handler will not emit the
+ record.
+
+
+.. method:: Handler.flush()
+
+ Ensure all logging output has been flushed. This version does nothing and is
+ intended to be implemented by subclasses.
+
+
+.. method:: Handler.close()
+
+ Tidy up any resources used by the handler. This version does no output but
+ removes the handler from an internal list of handlers which is closed when
+ :func:`shutdown` is called. Subclasses should ensure that this gets called
+ from overridden :meth:`close` methods.
+
+
+.. method:: Handler.handle(record)
+
+ Conditionally emits the specified logging record, depending on filters which may
+ have been added to the handler. Wraps the actual emission of the record with
+ acquisition/release of the I/O thread lock.
+
+
+.. method:: Handler.handleError(record)
+
+ This method should be called from handlers when an exception is encountered
+ during an :meth:`emit` call. If the module-level attribute
+ ``raiseExceptions`` is ``False``, exceptions get silently ignored. This is
+ what is mostly wanted for a logging system - most users will not care about
+ errors in the logging system, they are more interested in application
+ errors. You could, however, replace this with a custom handler if you wish.
+ The specified record is the one which was being processed when the exception
+ occurred. (The default value of ``raiseExceptions`` is ``True``, as that is
+ more useful during development).
+
+
+.. method:: Handler.format(record)
+
+ Do formatting for a record - if a formatter is set, use it. Otherwise, use the
+ default formatter for the module.
+
+
+.. method:: Handler.emit(record)
+
+ Do whatever it takes to actually log the specified logging record. This version
+ is intended to be implemented by subclasses and so raises a
+ :exc:`NotImplementedError`.
+
+For a list of handlers included as standard, see :mod:`logging.handlers`.
+
+.. _formatter-objects:
+
+Formatter Objects
+-----------------
+
+.. currentmodule:: logging
+
+:class:`Formatter` objects have the following attributes and methods. They are
+responsible for converting a :class:`LogRecord` to (usually) a string which can
+be interpreted by either a human or an external system. The base
+:class:`Formatter` allows a formatting string to be specified. If none is
+supplied, the default value of ``'%(message)s'`` is used.
+
+A Formatter can be initialized with a format string which makes use of knowledge
+of the :class:`LogRecord` attributes - such as the default value mentioned above
+making use of the fact that the user's message and arguments are pre-formatted
+into a :class:`LogRecord`'s *message* attribute. This format string contains
+standard Python %-style mapping keys. See section :ref:`string-formatting`
+for more information on string formatting.
+
+The useful mapping keys in a :class:`LogRecord` are given in the section on
+:ref:`logrecord-attributes`.
+
+
+.. class:: Formatter(fmt=None, datefmt=None)
+
+ Returns a new instance of the :class:`Formatter` class. The instance is
+ initialized with a format string for the message as a whole, as well as a
+ format string for the date/time portion of a message. If no *fmt* is
+ specified, ``'%(message)s'`` is used. If no *datefmt* is specified, the
+ ISO8601 date format is used.
+
+ .. method:: format(record)
+
+ The record's attribute dictionary is used as the operand to a string
+ formatting operation. Returns the resulting string. Before formatting the
+ dictionary, a couple of preparatory steps are carried out. The *message*
+ attribute of the record is computed using *msg* % *args*. If the
+ formatting string contains ``'(asctime)'``, :meth:`formatTime` is called
+ to format the event time. If there is exception information, it is
+ formatted using :meth:`formatException` and appended to the message. Note
+ that the formatted exception information is cached in attribute
+ *exc_text*. This is useful because the exception information can be
+ pickled and sent across the wire, but you should be careful if you have
+ more than one :class:`Formatter` subclass which customizes the formatting
+ of exception information. In this case, you will have to clear the cached
+ value after a formatter has done its formatting, so that the next
+ formatter to handle the event doesn't use the cached value but
+ recalculates it afresh.
+
+
+ .. method:: formatTime(record, datefmt=None)
+
+ This method should be called from :meth:`format` by a formatter which
+ wants to make use of a formatted time. This method can be overridden in
+ formatters to provide for any specific requirement, but the basic behavior
+ is as follows: if *datefmt* (a string) is specified, it is used with
+ :func:`time.strftime` to format the creation time of the
+ record. Otherwise, the ISO8601 format is used. The resulting string is
+ returned.
+
+ This function uses a user-configurable function to convert the creation
+ time to a tuple. By default, :func:`time.localtime` is used; to change
+ this for a particular formatter instance, set the ``converter`` attribute
+ to a function with the same signature as :func:`time.localtime` or
+ :func:`time.gmtime`. To change it for all formatters, for example if you
+ want all logging times to be shown in GMT, set the ``converter``
+ attribute in the ``Formatter`` class.
+
+ .. method:: formatException(exc_info)
+
+ Formats the specified exception information (a standard exception tuple as
+ returned by :func:`sys.exc_info`) as a string. This default implementation
+ just uses :func:`traceback.print_exception`. The resulting string is
+ returned.
+
+.. _filter:
+
+Filter Objects
+--------------
+
+``Filters`` can be used by ``Handlers`` and ``Loggers`` for more sophisticated
+filtering than is provided by levels. The base filter class only allows events
+which are below a certain point in the logger hierarchy. For example, a filter
+initialized with 'A.B' will allow events logged by loggers 'A.B', 'A.B.C',
+'A.B.C.D', 'A.B.D' etc. but not 'A.BB', 'B.A.B' etc. If initialized with the
+empty string, all events are passed.
+
+
+.. class:: Filter(name='')
+
+ Returns an instance of the :class:`Filter` class. If *name* is specified, it
+ names a logger which, together with its children, will have its events allowed
+ through the filter. If *name* is the empty string, allows every event.
+
+
+ .. method:: filter(record)
+
+ Is the specified record to be logged? Returns zero for no, nonzero for
+ yes. If deemed appropriate, the record may be modified in-place by this
+ method.
+
+Note that filters attached to handlers are consulted before an event is
+emitted by the handler, whereas filters attached to loggers are consulted
+whenever an event is logged (using :meth:`debug`, :meth:`info`,
+etc.), before sending an event to handlers. This means that events which have
+been generated by descendant loggers will not be filtered by a logger's filter
+setting, unless the filter has also been applied to those descendant loggers.
+
+You don't actually need to subclass ``Filter``: you can pass any instance
+which has a ``filter`` method with the same semantics.
+
+Although filters are used primarily to filter records based on more
+sophisticated criteria than levels, they get to see every record which is
+processed by the handler or logger they're attached to: this can be useful if
+you want to do things like counting how many records were processed by a
+particular logger or handler, or adding, changing or removing attributes in
+the LogRecord being processed. Obviously changing the LogRecord needs to be
+done with some care, but it does allow the injection of contextual information
+into logs (see :ref:`filters-contextual`).
+
+.. _log-record:
+
+LogRecord Objects
+-----------------
+
+:class:`LogRecord` instances are created automatically by the :class:`Logger`
+every time something is logged, and can be created manually via
+:func:`makeLogRecord` (for example, from a pickled event received over the
+wire).
+
+
+.. class:: LogRecord(name, level, pathname, lineno, msg, args, exc_info, func=None)
+
+ Contains all the information pertinent to the event being logged.
+
+ The primary information is passed in :attr:`msg` and :attr:`args`, which
+ are combined using ``msg % args`` to create the :attr:`message` field of the
+ record.
+
+ :param name: The name of the logger used to log the event represented by
+ this LogRecord. Note that this name will always have this
+ value, even though it may be emitted by a handler attached to
+ a different (ancestor) logger.
+ :param level: The numeric level of the logging event (one of DEBUG, INFO etc.)
+ Note that this is converted to *two* attributes of the LogRecord:
+ ``levelno`` for the numeric value and ``levelname`` for the
+ corresponding level name.
+ :param pathname: The full pathname of the source file where the logging call
+ was made.
+ :param lineno: The line number in the source file where the logging call was
+ made.
+ :param msg: The event description message, possibly a format string with
+ placeholders for variable data.
+ :param args: Variable data to merge into the *msg* argument to obtain the
+ event description.
+ :param exc_info: An exception tuple with the current exception information,
+ or *None* if no exception information is available.
+ :param func: The name of the function or method from which the logging call
+ was invoked.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ *func* was added.
+
+ .. method:: getMessage()
+
+ Returns the message for this :class:`LogRecord` instance after merging any
+ user-supplied arguments with the message. If the user-supplied message
+ argument to the logging call is not a string, :func:`str` is called on it to
+ convert it to a string. This allows use of user-defined classes as
+ messages, whose ``__str__`` method can return the actual format string to
+ be used.
+
+
+.. _logrecord-attributes:
+
+LogRecord attributes
+--------------------
+
+The LogRecord has a number of attributes, most of which are derived from the
+parameters to the constructor. (Note that the names do not always correspond
+exactly between the LogRecord constructor parameters and the LogRecord
+attributes.) These attributes can be used to merge data from the record into
+the format string. The following table lists (in alphabetical order) the
+attribute names, their meanings and the corresponding placeholder in a %-style
+format string.
+
++----------------+-------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| Attribute name | Format | Description |

+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ *funcName* was added.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ *processName* was added.
+
+.. _logger-adapter:
+
+LoggerAdapter Objects
+---------------------
+
+:class:`LoggerAdapter` instances are used to conveniently pass contextual
+information into logging calls. For a usage example , see the section on
+:ref:`adding contextual information to your logging output <context-info>`.
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. class:: LoggerAdapter(logger, extra)
+
+ Returns an instance of :class:`LoggerAdapter` initialized with an
+ underlying :class:`Logger` instance and a dict-like object.
+
+ .. method:: process(msg, kwargs)
+
+ Modifies the message and/or keyword arguments passed to a logging call in
+ order to insert contextual information. This implementation takes the object
+ passed as *extra* to the constructor and adds it to *kwargs* using key
+ 'extra'. The return value is a (*msg*, *kwargs*) tuple which has the
+ (possibly modified) versions of the arguments passed in.
+
+In addition to the above, :class:`LoggerAdapter` supports the following
+methods of :class:`Logger`, i.e. :meth:`debug`, :meth:`info`, :meth:`warning`,
+:meth:`error`, :meth:`exception`, :meth:`critical`, :meth:`log`,
+:meth:`isEnabledFor`, :meth:`getEffectiveLevel`, :meth:`setLevel`,
+:meth:`hasHandlers`. These methods have the same signatures as their
+counterparts in :class:`Logger`, so you can use the two types of instances
+interchangeably.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ The :meth:`isEnabledFor` method was added to :class:`LoggerAdapter`. This
+ method delegates to the underlying logger.
+
+
+Thread Safety
+-------------
+
+The logging module is intended to be thread-safe without any special work
+needing to be done by its clients. It achieves this though using threading
+locks; there is one lock to serialize access to the module's shared data, and
+each handler also creates a lock to serialize access to its underlying I/O.
+
+If you are implementing asynchronous signal handlers using the :mod:`signal`
+module, you may not be able to use logging from within such handlers. This is
+because lock implementations in the :mod:`threading` module are not always
+re-entrant, and so cannot be invoked from such signal handlers.
+
+
+Module-Level Functions
+----------------------
+
+In addition to the classes described above, there are a number of module- level
+functions.
+
+
+.. function:: getLogger([name])
+
+ Return a logger with the specified name or, if no name is specified, return a
+ logger which is the root logger of the hierarchy. If specified, the name is
+ typically a dot-separated hierarchical name like *"a"*, *"a.b"* or *"a.b.c.d"*.
+ Choice of these names is entirely up to the developer who is using logging.
+
+ All calls to this function with a given name return the same logger instance.
+ This means that logger instances never need to be passed between different parts
+ of an application.
+
+
+.. function:: getLoggerClass()
+
+ Return either the standard :class:`Logger` class, or the last class passed to
+ :func:`setLoggerClass`. This function may be called from within a new class
+ definition, to ensure that installing a customised :class:`Logger` class will
+ not undo customisations already applied by other code. For example::
+
+ class MyLogger(logging.getLoggerClass()):
+ # ... override behaviour here
+
+
+.. function:: debug(msg[, *args[, **kwargs]])
+
+ Logs a message with level :const:`DEBUG` on the root logger. The *msg* is the
+ message format string, and the *args* are the arguments which are merged into
+ *msg* using the string formatting operator. (Note that this means that you can
+ use keywords in the format string, together with a single dictionary argument.)
+
+ There are two keyword arguments in *kwargs* which are inspected: *exc_info*
+ which, if it does not evaluate as false, causes exception information to be
+ added to the logging message. If an exception tuple (in the format returned by
+ :func:`sys.exc_info`) is provided, it is used; otherwise, :func:`sys.exc_info`
+ is called to get the exception information.
+
+ The other optional keyword argument is *extra* which can be used to pass a
+ dictionary which is used to populate the __dict__ of the LogRecord created for
+ the logging event with user-defined attributes. These custom attributes can then
+ be used as you like. For example, they could be incorporated into logged
+ messages. For example::
+
+ FORMAT = "%(asctime)-15s %(clientip)s %(user)-8s %(message)s"
+ logging.basicConfig(format=FORMAT)
+ d = {'clientip': '192.168.0.1', 'user': 'fbloggs'}
+ logging.warning("Protocol problem: %s", "connection reset", extra=d)
+
+ would print something like::
+
+ 2006-02-08 22:20:02,165 192.168.0.1 fbloggs Protocol problem: connection reset
+
+ The keys in the dictionary passed in *extra* should not clash with the keys used
+ by the logging system. (See the :class:`Formatter` documentation for more
+ information on which keys are used by the logging system.)
+
+ If you choose to use these attributes in logged messages, you need to exercise
+ some care. In the above example, for instance, the :class:`Formatter` has been
+ set up with a format string which expects 'clientip' and 'user' in the attribute
+ dictionary of the LogRecord. If these are missing, the message will not be
+ logged because a string formatting exception will occur. So in this case, you
+ always need to pass the *extra* dictionary with these keys.
+
+ While this might be annoying, this feature is intended for use in specialized
+ circumstances, such as multi-threaded servers where the same code executes in
+ many contexts, and interesting conditions which arise are dependent on this
+ context (such as remote client IP address and authenticated user name, in the
+ above example). In such circumstances, it is likely that specialized
+ :class:`Formatter`\ s would be used with particular :class:`Handler`\ s.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ *extra* was added.
+
+
+.. function:: info(msg[, *args[, **kwargs]])
+
+ Logs a message with level :const:`INFO` on the root logger. The arguments are
+ interpreted as for :func:`debug`.
+
+
+.. function:: warning(msg[, *args[, **kwargs]])
+
+ Logs a message with level :const:`WARNING` on the root logger. The arguments are
+ interpreted as for :func:`debug`.
+
+
+.. function:: error(msg[, *args[, **kwargs]])
+
+ Logs a message with level :const:`ERROR` on the root logger. The arguments are
+ interpreted as for :func:`debug`.
+
+
+.. function:: critical(msg[, *args[, **kwargs]])
+
+ Logs a message with level :const:`CRITICAL` on the root logger. The arguments
+ are interpreted as for :func:`debug`.
+
+
+.. function:: exception(msg[, *args])
+
+ Logs a message with level :const:`ERROR` on the root logger. The arguments are
+ interpreted as for :func:`debug`. Exception info is added to the logging
+ message. This function should only be called from an exception handler.
+
+
+.. function:: log(level, msg[, *args[, **kwargs]])
+
+ Logs a message with level *level* on the root logger. The other arguments are
+ interpreted as for :func:`debug`.
+
+ .. note:: The above module-level functions which delegate to the root
+ logger should *not* be used in threads, in versions of Python earlier
+ than 2.7.1 and 3.2, unless at least one handler has been added to the
+ root logger *before* the threads are started. These convenience functions
+ call :func:`basicConfig` to ensure that at least one handler is
+ available; in earlier versions of Python, this can (under rare
+ circumstances) lead to handlers being added multiple times to the root
+ logger, which can in turn lead to multiple messages for the same event.
+
+.. function:: disable(lvl)
+
+ Provides an overriding level *lvl* for all loggers which takes precedence over
+ the logger's own level. When the need arises to temporarily throttle logging
+ output down across the whole application, this function can be useful. Its
+ effect is to disable all logging calls of severity *lvl* and below, so that
+ if you call it with a value of INFO, then all INFO and DEBUG events would be
+ discarded, whereas those of severity WARNING and above would be processed
+ according to the logger's effective level. To undo the effect of a call to
+ ``logging.disable(lvl)``, call ``logging.disable(logging.NOTSET)``.
+
+
+.. function:: addLevelName(lvl, levelName)
+
+ Associates level *lvl* with text *levelName* in an internal dictionary, which is
+ used to map numeric levels to a textual representation, for example when a
+ :class:`Formatter` formats a message. This function can also be used to define
+ your own levels. The only constraints are that all levels used must be
+ registered using this function, levels should be positive integers and they
+ should increase in increasing order of severity.
+
+ .. note:: If you are thinking of defining your own levels, please see the
+ section on :ref:`custom-levels`.
+
+.. function:: getLevelName(lvl)
+
+ Returns the textual representation of logging level *lvl*. If the level is one
+ of the predefined levels :const:`CRITICAL`, :const:`ERROR`, :const:`WARNING`,
+ :const:`INFO` or :const:`DEBUG` then you get the corresponding string. If you
+ have associated levels with names using :func:`addLevelName` then the name you
+ have associated with *lvl* is returned. If a numeric value corresponding to one
+ of the defined levels is passed in, the corresponding string representation is
+ returned. Otherwise, the string "Level %s" % lvl is returned.
+
+
+.. function:: makeLogRecord(attrdict)
+
+ Creates and returns a new :class:`LogRecord` instance whose attributes are
+ defined by *attrdict*. This function is useful for taking a pickled
+ :class:`LogRecord` attribute dictionary, sent over a socket, and reconstituting
+ it as a :class:`LogRecord` instance at the receiving end.
+
+
+.. function:: basicConfig([**kwargs])
+
+ Does basic configuration for the logging system by creating a
+ :class:`StreamHandler` with a default :class:`Formatter` and adding it to the
+ root logger. The functions :func:`debug`, :func:`info`, :func:`warning`,
+ :func:`error` and :func:`critical` will call :func:`basicConfig` automatically
+ if no handlers are defined for the root logger.
+
+ This function does nothing if the root logger already has handlers
+ configured for it.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ Formerly, :func:`basicConfig` did not take any keyword arguments.
+
+ .. note:: This function should be called from the main thread before other
+ threads are started. In versions of Python prior to 2.7.1 and 3.2, if
+ this function is called from multiple threads, it is possible (in rare
+ circumstances) that a handler will be added to the root logger more than
+ once, leading to unexpected results such as messages being duplicated in
+ the log.
+
+ The following keyword arguments are supported.
+
+ .. tabularcolumns:: |l|L|
+
+ +--------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | Format | Description |
+ +==============+=============================================+
+ | ``filename`` | Specifies that a FileHandler be created, |
+ | | using the specified filename, rather than a |
+ | | StreamHandler. |
+ +--------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | ``filemode`` | Specifies the mode to open the file, if |
+ | | filename is specified (if filemode is |
+ | | unspecified, it defaults to 'a'). |
+ +--------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | ``format`` | Use the specified format string for the |
+ | | handler. |
+ +--------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | ``datefmt`` | Use the specified date/time format. |
+ +--------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | ``level`` | Set the root logger level to the specified |
+ | | level. |
+ +--------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | ``stream`` | Use the specified stream to initialize the |
+ | | StreamHandler. Note that this argument is |
+ | | incompatible with 'filename' - if both are |
+ | | present, 'stream' is ignored. |
+ +--------------+---------------------------------------------+
+
+
+.. function:: shutdown()
+
+ Informs the logging system to perform an orderly shutdown by flushing and
+ closing all handlers. This should be called at application exit and no
+ further use of the logging system should be made after this call.
+
+
+.. function:: setLoggerClass(klass)
+
+ Tells the logging system to use the class *klass* when instantiating a logger.
+ The class should define :meth:`__init__` such that only a name argument is
+ required, and the :meth:`__init__` should call :meth:`Logger.__init__`. This
+ function is typically called before any loggers are instantiated by applications
+ which need to use custom logger behavior.
+
+
+Integration with the warnings module
+------------------------------------
+
+The :func:`captureWarnings` function can be used to integrate :mod:`logging`
+with the :mod:`warnings` module.
+
+.. function:: captureWarnings(capture)
+
+ This function is used to turn the capture of warnings by logging on and
+ off.
+
+ If *capture* is ``True``, warnings issued by the :mod:`warnings` module will
+ be redirected to the logging system. Specifically, a warning will be
+ formatted using :func:`warnings.formatwarning` and the resulting string
+ logged to a logger named ``'py.warnings'`` with a severity of :const:`WARNING`.
+
+ If *capture* is ``False``, the redirection of warnings to the logging system
+ will stop, and warnings will be redirected to their original destinations
+ (i.e. those in effect before ``captureWarnings(True)`` was called).
+
+
+.. seealso::

+ and 2.2.x, which do not include the :mod:`logging` package in the standard

+
+*********************
+MacPython OSA Modules
+*********************
+
+This chapter describes the current implementation of the Open Scripting
+Architecture (OSA, also commonly referred to as AppleScript) for Python,
+allowing you to control scriptable applications from your Python program,
+and with a fairly pythonic interface. Development on this set of modules has
+stopped.
+
+For a description of the various components of AppleScript and OSA, and to get
+an understanding of the architecture and terminology, you should read Apple's
+documentation. The "Applescript Language Guide" explains the conceptual model
+and the terminology, and documents the standard suite. The "Open Scripting
+Architecture" document explains how to use OSA from an application programmers
+point of view. In the Apple Help Viewer these books are located in the Developer
+Documentation, Core Technologies section.
+
+As an example of scripting an application, the following piece of AppleScript
+will get the name of the frontmost :program:`Finder` window and print it::
+
+ tell application "Finder"
+ get name of window 1
+ end tell
+
+In Python, the following code fragment will do the same::
+
+ import Finder
+
+ f = Finder.Finder()
+ print f.get(f.window(1).name)
+
+As distributed the Python library includes packages that implement the standard
+suites, plus packages that interface to a small number of common applications.
+
+To send AppleEvents to an application you must first create the Python package
+interfacing to the terminology of the application (what :program:`Script Editor`
+calls the "Dictionary"). This can be done from within the :program:`PythonIDE`
+or by running the :file:`gensuitemodule.py` module as a standalone program from
+the command line.
+
+The generated output is a package with a number of modules, one for every suite
+used in the program plus an :mod:`__init__` module to glue it all together. The
+Python inheritance graph follows the AppleScript inheritance graph, so if a
+program's dictionary specifies that it includes support for the Standard Suite,
+but extends one or two verbs with extra arguments then the output suite will
+contain a module :mod:`Standard_Suite` that imports and re-exports everything
+from :mod:`StdSuites.Standard_Suite` but overrides the methods that have extra
+functionality. The output of :mod:`gensuitemodule` is pretty readable, and
+contains the documentation that was in the original AppleScript dictionary in
+Python docstrings, so reading it is a good source of documentation.
+
+The output package implements a main class with the same name as the package
+which contains all the AppleScript verbs as methods, with the direct object as
+the first argument and all optional parameters as keyword arguments. AppleScript
+classes are also implemented as Python classes, as are comparisons and all the
+other thingies.
+
+The main Python class implementing the verbs also allows access to the
+properties and elements declared in the AppleScript class "application". In the
+current release that is as far as the object orientation goes, so in the example
+above we need to use ``f.get(f.window(1).name)`` instead of the more Pythonic
+``f.window(1).name.get()``.
+
+If an AppleScript identifier is not a Python identifier the name is mangled
+according to a small number of rules:
+
+* spaces are replaced with underscores
+
+* other non-alphanumeric characters are replaced with ``_xx_`` where ``xx`` is
+ the hexadecimal character value
+
+* any Python reserved word gets an underscore appended
+
+Python also has support for creating scriptable applications in Python, but The
+following modules are relevant to MacPython AppleScript support:
+
+.. toctree::
+
+ gensuitemodule.rst
+ aetools.rst
+ aepack.rst
+ aetypes.rst
+ miniaeframe.rst
+
+
+In addition, support modules have been pre-generated for :mod:`Finder`,
+:mod:`Terminal`, :mod:`Explorer`, :mod:`Netscape`, :mod:`CodeWarrior`,
+:mod:`SystemEvents` and :mod:`StdSuites`.

+:mod:`macostools` --- Convenience routines for file manipulation
+================================================================
+
+.. module:: macostools
+ :platform: Mac
+ :synopsis: Convenience routines for file manipulation.
+ :deprecated:
+
+
+This module contains some convenience routines for file-manipulation on the
+Macintosh. All file parameters can be specified as pathnames, :class:`FSRef` or
+:class:`FSSpec` objects. This module expects a filesystem which supports forked
+files, so it should not be used on UFS partitions.
+
+.. note::

+ This module has been removed in Python 3.
+
+
+
+The :mod:`macostools` module defines the following functions:
+
+
+.. function:: copy(src, dst[, createpath[, copytimes]])
+
+ Copy file *src* to *dst*. If *createpath* is non-zero the folders leading to
+ *dst* are created if necessary. The method copies data and resource fork and
+ some finder information (creator, type, flags) and optionally the creation,
+ modification and backup times (default is to copy them). Custom icons, comments
+ and icon position are not copied.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ This function does not work in 64-bit code because it uses APIs that
+ are not available in 64-bit mode.
+
+.. function:: copytree(src, dst)
+

+ *src* and *dst* should be specified as pathnames.
+
+ .. note::

+:mod:`mailbox` --- Manipulate mailboxes in various formats
+==========================================================
+
+.. module:: mailbox
+ :synopsis: Manipulate mailboxes in various formats
+.. moduleauthor:: Gregory K. Johnson <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Gregory K. Johnson <[email protected]>
+
+
+This module defines two classes, :class:`Mailbox` and :class:`Message`, for
+accessing and manipulating on-disk mailboxes and the messages they contain.
+:class:`Mailbox` offers a dictionary-like mapping from keys to messages.
+:class:`Message` extends the :mod:`email.message` module's
+:class:`~email.message.Message` class with format-specific state and behavior.
+Supported mailbox formats are
+Maildir, mbox, MH, Babyl, and MMDF.
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ Module :mod:`email`
+ Represent and manipulate messages.
+
+
+.. _mailbox-objects:
+
+:class:`Mailbox` objects
+------------------------
+
+
+.. class:: Mailbox
+
+ A mailbox, which may be inspected and modified.
+
+ The :class:`Mailbox` class defines an interface and is not intended to be
+ instantiated. Instead, format-specific subclasses should inherit from
+ :class:`Mailbox` and your code should instantiate a particular subclass.
+
+ The :class:`Mailbox` interface is dictionary-like, with small keys
+ corresponding to messages. Keys are issued by the :class:`Mailbox` instance
+ with which they will be used and are only meaningful to that :class:`Mailbox`
+ instance. A key continues to identify a message even if the corresponding
+ message is modified, such as by replacing it with another message.
+
+ Messages may be added to a :class:`Mailbox` instance using the set-like
+ method :meth:`add` and removed using a ``del`` statement or the set-like
+ methods :meth:`remove` and :meth:`discard`.
+
+ :class:`Mailbox` interface semantics differ from dictionary semantics in some
+ noteworthy ways. Each time a message is requested, a new representation
+ (typically a :class:`Message` instance) is generated based upon the current
+ state of the mailbox. Similarly, when a message is added to a
+ :class:`Mailbox` instance, the provided message representation's contents are
+ copied. In neither case is a reference to the message representation kept by
+ the :class:`Mailbox` instance.
+
+ The default :class:`Mailbox` iterator iterates over message representations,
+ not keys as the default dictionary iterator does. Moreover, modification of a
+ mailbox during iteration is safe and well-defined. Messages added to the
+ mailbox after an iterator is created will not be seen by the
+ iterator. Messages removed from the mailbox before the iterator yields them
+ will be silently skipped, though using a key from an iterator may result in a
+ :exc:`KeyError` exception if the corresponding message is subsequently
+ removed.
+
+ .. warning::
+
+ Be very cautious when modifying mailboxes that might be simultaneously
+ changed by some other process. The safest mailbox format to use for such
+ tasks is Maildir; try to avoid using single-file formats such as mbox for
+ concurrent writing. If you're modifying a mailbox, you *must* lock it by
+ calling the :meth:`lock` and :meth:`unlock` methods *before* reading any
+ messages in the file or making any changes by adding or deleting a
+ message. Failing to lock the mailbox runs the risk of losing messages or
+ corrupting the entire mailbox.
+
+ :class:`Mailbox` instances have the following methods:
+
+
+ .. method:: add(message)
+
+ Add *message* to the mailbox and return the key that has been assigned to
+ it.
+
+ Parameter *message* may be a :class:`Message` instance, an
+ :class:`email.message.Message` instance, a string, or a file-like object
+ (which should be open in text mode). If *message* is an instance of the
+ appropriate format-specific :class:`Message` subclass (e.g., if it's an
+ :class:`mboxMessage` instance and this is an :class:`mbox` instance), its
+ format-specific information is used. Otherwise, reasonable defaults for
+ format-specific information are used.
+
+
+ .. method:: remove(key)
+ __delitem__(key)
+ discard(key)
+
+ Delete the message corresponding to *key* from the mailbox.
+
+ If no such message exists, a :exc:`KeyError` exception is raised if the
+ method was called as :meth:`remove` or :meth:`__delitem__` but no
+ exception is raised if the method was called as :meth:`discard`. The
+ behavior of :meth:`discard` may be preferred if the underlying mailbox
+ format supports concurrent modification by other processes.
+
+
+ .. method:: __setitem__(key, message)
+
+ Replace the message corresponding to *key* with *message*. Raise a
+ :exc:`KeyError` exception if no message already corresponds to *key*.
+
+ As with :meth:`add`, parameter *message* may be a :class:`Message`
+ instance, an :class:`email.message.Message` instance, a string, or a
+ file-like object (which should be open in text mode). If *message* is an
+ instance of the appropriate format-specific :class:`Message` subclass
+ (e.g., if it's an :class:`mboxMessage` instance and this is an
+ :class:`mbox` instance), its format-specific information is
+ used. Otherwise, the format-specific information of the message that
+ currently corresponds to *key* is left unchanged.
+
+
+ .. method:: iterkeys()
+ keys()
+
+ Return an iterator over all keys if called as :meth:`iterkeys` or return a
+ list of keys if called as :meth:`keys`.
+
+
+ .. method:: itervalues()
+ __iter__()
+ values()
+
+ Return an iterator over representations of all messages if called as
+ :meth:`itervalues` or :meth:`__iter__` or return a list of such
+ representations if called as :meth:`values`. The messages are represented
+ as instances of the appropriate format-specific :class:`Message` subclass
+ unless a custom message factory was specified when the :class:`Mailbox`
+ instance was initialized.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ The behavior of :meth:`__iter__` is unlike that of dictionaries, which
+ iterate over keys.
+
+
+ .. method:: iteritems()
+ items()
+
+ Return an iterator over (*key*, *message*) pairs, where *key* is a key and
+ *message* is a message representation, if called as :meth:`iteritems` or
+ return a list of such pairs if called as :meth:`items`. The messages are
+ represented as instances of the appropriate format-specific
+ :class:`Message` subclass unless a custom message factory was specified
+ when the :class:`Mailbox` instance was initialized.
+
+
+ .. method:: get(key, default=None)
+ __getitem__(key)
+
+ Return a representation of the message corresponding to *key*. If no such
+ message exists, *default* is returned if the method was called as
+ :meth:`get` and a :exc:`KeyError` exception is raised if the method was
+ called as :meth:`__getitem__`. The message is represented as an instance
+ of the appropriate format-specific :class:`Message` subclass unless a
+ custom message factory was specified when the :class:`Mailbox` instance
+ was initialized.
+
+
+ .. method:: get_message(key)
+
+ Return a representation of the message corresponding to *key* as an
+ instance of the appropriate format-specific :class:`Message` subclass, or
+ raise a :exc:`KeyError` exception if no such message exists.
+
+
+ .. method:: get_string(key)
+
+ Return a string representation of the message corresponding to *key*, or
+ raise a :exc:`KeyError` exception if no such message exists.
+
+
+ .. method:: get_file(key)
+
+ Return a file-like representation of the message corresponding to *key*,
+ or raise a :exc:`KeyError` exception if no such message exists. The
+ file-like object behaves as if open in binary mode. This file should be
+ closed once it is no longer needed.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Unlike other representations of messages, file-like representations are
+ not necessarily independent of the :class:`Mailbox` instance that
+ created them or of the underlying mailbox. More specific documentation
+ is provided by each subclass.
+
+
+ .. method:: has_key(key)
+ __contains__(key)
+
+ Return ``True`` if *key* corresponds to a message, ``False`` otherwise.
+
+
+ .. method:: __len__()
+
+ Return a count of messages in the mailbox.
+
+
+ .. method:: clear()
+
+ Delete all messages from the mailbox.
+
+
+ .. method:: pop(key[, default])
+
+ Return a representation of the message corresponding to *key* and delete
+ the message. If no such message exists, return *default* if it was
+ supplied or else raise a :exc:`KeyError` exception. The message is
+ represented as an instance of the appropriate format-specific
+ :class:`Message` subclass unless a custom message factory was specified
+ when the :class:`Mailbox` instance was initialized.
+
+
+ .. method:: popitem()
+
+ Return an arbitrary (*key*, *message*) pair, where *key* is a key and
+ *message* is a message representation, and delete the corresponding
+ message. If the mailbox is empty, raise a :exc:`KeyError` exception. The
+ message is represented as an instance of the appropriate format-specific
+ :class:`Message` subclass unless a custom message factory was specified
+ when the :class:`Mailbox` instance was initialized.
+
+
+ .. method:: update(arg)
+
+ Parameter *arg* should be a *key*-to-*message* mapping or an iterable of
+ (*key*, *message*) pairs. Updates the mailbox so that, for each given
+ *key* and *message*, the message corresponding to *key* is set to
+ *message* as if by using :meth:`__setitem__`. As with :meth:`__setitem__`,
+ each *key* must already correspond to a message in the mailbox or else a
+ :exc:`KeyError` exception will be raised, so in general it is incorrect
+ for *arg* to be a :class:`Mailbox` instance.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Unlike with dictionaries, keyword arguments are not supported.
+
+
+ .. method:: flush()
+
+ Write any pending changes to the filesystem. For some :class:`Mailbox`
+ subclasses, changes are always written immediately and :meth:`flush` does
+ nothing, but you should still make a habit of calling this method.
+
+
+ .. method:: lock()
+
+ Acquire an exclusive advisory lock on the mailbox so that other processes
+ know not to modify it. An :exc:`ExternalClashError` is raised if the lock
+ is not available. The particular locking mechanisms used depend upon the
+ mailbox format. You should *always* lock the mailbox before making any
+ modifications to its contents.
+
+
+ .. method:: unlock()
+
+ Release the lock on the mailbox, if any.
+
+
+ .. method:: close()
+
+ Flush the mailbox, unlock it if necessary, and close any open files. For
+ some :class:`Mailbox` subclasses, this method does nothing.
+
+
+.. _mailbox-maildir:
+
+:class:`Maildir`
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+
+.. class:: Maildir(dirname, factory=rfc822.Message, create=True)
+
+ A subclass of :class:`Mailbox` for mailboxes in Maildir format. Parameter
+ *factory* is a callable object that accepts a file-like message representation
+ (which behaves as if opened in binary mode) and returns a custom representation.
+ If *factory* is ``None``, :class:`MaildirMessage` is used as the default message
+ representation. If *create* is ``True``, the mailbox is created if it does not
+ exist.
+
+ It is for historical reasons that *factory* defaults to :class:`rfc822.Message`
+ and that *dirname* is named as such rather than *path*. For a :class:`Maildir`
+ instance that behaves like instances of other :class:`Mailbox` subclasses, set
+ *factory* to ``None``.
+
+ Maildir is a directory-based mailbox format invented for the qmail mail
+ transfer agent and now widely supported by other programs. Messages in a
+ Maildir mailbox are stored in separate files within a common directory
+ structure. This design allows Maildir mailboxes to be accessed and modified
+ by multiple unrelated programs without data corruption, so file locking is
+ unnecessary.
+
+ Maildir mailboxes contain three subdirectories, namely: :file:`tmp`,
+ :file:`new`, and :file:`cur`. Messages are created momentarily in the
+ :file:`tmp` subdirectory and then moved to the :file:`new` subdirectory to
+ finalize delivery. A mail user agent may subsequently move the message to the
+ :file:`cur` subdirectory and store information about the state of the message
+ in a special "info" section appended to its file name.
+
+ Folders of the style introduced by the Courier mail transfer agent are also
+ supported. Any subdirectory of the main mailbox is considered a folder if
+ ``'.'`` is the first character in its name. Folder names are represented by
+ :class:`Maildir` without the leading ``'.'``. Each folder is itself a Maildir
+ mailbox but should not contain other folders. Instead, a logical nesting is
+ indicated using ``'.'`` to delimit levels, e.g., "Archived.2005.07".
+
+ .. note::
+
+ The Maildir specification requires the use of a colon (``':'``) in certain
+ message file names. However, some operating systems do not permit this
+ character in file names, If you wish to use a Maildir-like format on such
+ an operating system, you should specify another character to use
+ instead. The exclamation point (``'!'``) is a popular choice. For
+ example::
+
+ import mailbox
+ mailbox.Maildir.colon = '!'
+
+ The :attr:`colon` attribute may also be set on a per-instance basis.
+
+ :class:`Maildir` instances have all of the methods of :class:`Mailbox` in
+ addition to the following:
+
+
+ .. method:: list_folders()
+
+ Return a list of the names of all folders.
+
+
+ .. method:: get_folder(folder)
+
+ Return a :class:`Maildir` instance representing the folder whose name is
+ *folder*. A :exc:`NoSuchMailboxError` exception is raised if the folder
+ does not exist.
+
+
+ .. method:: add_folder(folder)
+
+ Create a folder whose name is *folder* and return a :class:`Maildir`
+ instance representing it.
+
+
+ .. method:: remove_folder(folder)
+
+ Delete the folder whose name is *folder*. If the folder contains any
+ messages, a :exc:`NotEmptyError` exception will be raised and the folder
+ will not be deleted.
+
+
+ .. method:: clean()
+
+ Delete temporary files from the mailbox that have not been accessed in the
+ last 36 hours. The Maildir specification says that mail-reading programs
+ should do this occasionally.
+
+ Some :class:`Mailbox` methods implemented by :class:`Maildir` deserve special
+ remarks:
+
+
+ .. method:: add(message)
+ __setitem__(key, message)
+ update(arg)
+
+ .. warning::
+
+ These methods generate unique file names based upon the current process
+ ID. When using multiple threads, undetected name clashes may occur and
+ cause corruption of the mailbox unless threads are coordinated to avoid
+ using these methods to manipulate the same mailbox simultaneously.
+
+
+ .. method:: flush()
+
+ All changes to Maildir mailboxes are immediately applied, so this method
+ does nothing.
+
+
+ .. method:: lock()
+ unlock()
+
+ Maildir mailboxes do not support (or require) locking, so these methods do
+ nothing.
+
+
+ .. method:: close()
+
+ :class:`Maildir` instances do not keep any open files and the underlying
+ mailboxes do not support locking, so this method does nothing.
+
+
+ .. method:: get_file(key)
+
+ Depending upon the host platform, it may not be possible to modify or
+ remove the underlying message while the returned file remains open.

+.. _mailbox-mbox:
+
+:class:`mbox`
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+
+.. class:: mbox(path, factory=None, create=True)
+
+ A subclass of :class:`Mailbox` for mailboxes in mbox format. Parameter *factory*
+ is a callable object that accepts a file-like message representation (which
+ behaves as if opened in binary mode) and returns a custom representation. If
+ *factory* is ``None``, :class:`mboxMessage` is used as the default message
+ representation. If *create* is ``True``, the mailbox is created if it does not
+ exist.
+
+ The mbox format is the classic format for storing mail on Unix systems. All
+ messages in an mbox mailbox are stored in a single file with the beginning of
+ each message indicated by a line whose first five characters are "From ".
+
+ Several variations of the mbox format exist to address perceived shortcomings in
+ the original. In the interest of compatibility, :class:`mbox` implements the
+ original format, which is sometimes referred to as :dfn:`mboxo`. This means that
+ the :mailheader:`Content-Length` header, if present, is ignored and that any
+ occurrences of "From " at the beginning of a line in a message body are
+ transformed to ">From " when storing the message, although occurrences of ">From
+ " are not transformed to "From " when reading the message.
+
+ Some :class:`Mailbox` methods implemented by :class:`mbox` deserve special
+ remarks:
+
+
+ .. method:: get_file(key)
+
+ Using the file after calling :meth:`flush` or :meth:`close` on the
+ :class:`mbox` instance may yield unpredictable results or raise an
+ exception.

+.. _mailbox-mh:
+
+:class:`MH`
+^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+
+.. class:: MH(path, factory=None, create=True)
+
+ A subclass of :class:`Mailbox` for mailboxes in MH format. Parameter *factory*
+ is a callable object that accepts a file-like message representation (which
+ behaves as if opened in binary mode) and returns a custom representation. If
+ *factory* is ``None``, :class:`MHMessage` is used as the default message
+ representation. If *create* is ``True``, the mailbox is created if it does not
+ exist.
+
+ MH is a directory-based mailbox format invented for the MH Message Handling
+ System, a mail user agent. Each message in an MH mailbox resides in its own
+ file. An MH mailbox may contain other MH mailboxes (called :dfn:`folders`) in
+ addition to messages. Folders may be nested indefinitely. MH mailboxes also
+ support :dfn:`sequences`, which are named lists used to logically group
+ messages without moving them to sub-folders. Sequences are defined in a file
+ called :file:`.mh_sequences` in each folder.
+
+ The :class:`MH` class manipulates MH mailboxes, but it does not attempt to
+ emulate all of :program:`mh`'s behaviors. In particular, it does not modify
+ and is not affected by the :file:`context` or :file:`.mh_profile` files that
+ are used by :program:`mh` to store its state and configuration.
+
+ :class:`MH` instances have all of the methods of :class:`Mailbox` in addition
+ to the following:
+
+
+ .. method:: list_folders()
+
+ Return a list of the names of all folders.
+
+
+ .. method:: get_folder(folder)
+
+ Return an :class:`MH` instance representing the folder whose name is
+ *folder*. A :exc:`NoSuchMailboxError` exception is raised if the folder
+ does not exist.
+
+
+ .. method:: add_folder(folder)
+
+ Create a folder whose name is *folder* and return an :class:`MH` instance
+ representing it.
+
+
+ .. method:: remove_folder(folder)
+
+ Delete the folder whose name is *folder*. If the folder contains any
+ messages, a :exc:`NotEmptyError` exception will be raised and the folder
+ will not be deleted.
+
+
+ .. method:: get_sequences()
+
+ Return a dictionary of sequence names mapped to key lists. If there are no
+ sequences, the empty dictionary is returned.
+
+
+ .. method:: set_sequences(sequences)
+
+ Re-define the sequences that exist in the mailbox based upon *sequences*,
+ a dictionary of names mapped to key lists, like returned by
+ :meth:`get_sequences`.
+
+
+ .. method:: pack()
+
+ Rename messages in the mailbox as necessary to eliminate gaps in
+ numbering. Entries in the sequences list are updated correspondingly.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Already-issued keys are invalidated by this operation and should not be
+ subsequently used.
+
+ Some :class:`Mailbox` methods implemented by :class:`MH` deserve special
+ remarks:
+
+
+ .. method:: remove(key)
+ __delitem__(key)
+ discard(key)
+
+ These methods immediately delete the message. The MH convention of marking
+ a message for deletion by prepending a comma to its name is not used.
+
+
+ .. method:: lock()
+ unlock()
+
+ Three locking mechanisms are used---dot locking and, if available, the
+ :c:func:`flock` and :c:func:`lockf` system calls. For MH mailboxes, locking
+ the mailbox means locking the :file:`.mh_sequences` file and, only for the
+ duration of any operations that affect them, locking individual message
+ files.
+
+
+ .. method:: get_file(key)
+
+ Depending upon the host platform, it may not be possible to remove the
+ underlying message while the returned file remains open.
+
+
+ .. method:: flush()
+
+ All changes to MH mailboxes are immediately applied, so this method does
+ nothing.
+
+
+ .. method:: close()
+
+ :class:`MH` instances do not keep any open files, so this method is
+ equivalent to :meth:`unlock`.

+.. _mailbox-babyl:
+
+:class:`Babyl`
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+
+.. class:: Babyl(path, factory=None, create=True)
+
+ A subclass of :class:`Mailbox` for mailboxes in Babyl format. Parameter
+ *factory* is a callable object that accepts a file-like message representation
+ (which behaves as if opened in binary mode) and returns a custom representation.
+ If *factory* is ``None``, :class:`BabylMessage` is used as the default message
+ representation. If *create* is ``True``, the mailbox is created if it does not
+ exist.
+
+ Babyl is a single-file mailbox format used by the Rmail mail user agent
+ included with Emacs. The beginning of a message is indicated by a line
+ containing the two characters Control-Underscore (``'\037'``) and Control-L
+ (``'\014'``). The end of a message is indicated by the start of the next
+ message or, in the case of the last message, a line containing a
+ Control-Underscore (``'\037'``) character.
+
+ Messages in a Babyl mailbox have two sets of headers, original headers and
+ so-called visible headers. Visible headers are typically a subset of the
+ original headers that have been reformatted or abridged to be more
+ attractive. Each message in a Babyl mailbox also has an accompanying list of
+ :dfn:`labels`, or short strings that record extra information about the
+ message, and a list of all user-defined labels found in the mailbox is kept
+ in the Babyl options section.
+
+ :class:`Babyl` instances have all of the methods of :class:`Mailbox` in
+ addition to the following:
+
+
+ .. method:: get_labels()
+
+ Return a list of the names of all user-defined labels used in the mailbox.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ The actual messages are inspected to determine which labels exist in
+ the mailbox rather than consulting the list of labels in the Babyl
+ options section, but the Babyl section is updated whenever the mailbox
+ is modified.
+
+ Some :class:`Mailbox` methods implemented by :class:`Babyl` deserve special
+ remarks:
+
+
+ .. method:: get_file(key)
+
+ In Babyl mailboxes, the headers of a message are not stored contiguously
+ with the body of the message. To generate a file-like representation, the
+ headers and body are copied together into a :class:`StringIO` instance
+ (from the :mod:`StringIO` module), which has an API identical to that of a
+ file. As a result, the file-like object is truly independent of the
+ underlying mailbox but does not save memory compared to a string
+ representation.
+
+
+ .. method:: lock()
+ unlock()
+
+ Three locking mechanisms are used---dot locking and, if available, the
+ :c:func:`flock` and :c:func:`lockf` system calls.

+
+:class:`MMDF`
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+
+.. class:: MMDF(path, factory=None, create=True)
+
+ A subclass of :class:`Mailbox` for mailboxes in MMDF format. Parameter *factory*
+ is a callable object that accepts a file-like message representation (which
+ behaves as if opened in binary mode) and returns a custom representation. If
+ *factory* is ``None``, :class:`MMDFMessage` is used as the default message
+ representation. If *create* is ``True``, the mailbox is created if it does not
+ exist.
+
+ MMDF is a single-file mailbox format invented for the Multichannel Memorandum
+ Distribution Facility, a mail transfer agent. Each message is in the same
+ form as an mbox message but is bracketed before and after by lines containing
+ four Control-A (``'\001'``) characters. As with the mbox format, the
+ beginning of each message is indicated by a line whose first five characters
+ are "From ", but additional occurrences of "From " are not transformed to
+ ">From " when storing messages because the extra message separator lines
+ prevent mistaking such occurrences for the starts of subsequent messages.
+
+ Some :class:`Mailbox` methods implemented by :class:`MMDF` deserve special
+ remarks:
+
+
+ .. method:: get_file(key)

+
+
+.. _mailbox-message-objects:
+
+:class:`Message` objects
+------------------------
+
+
+.. class:: Message([message])
+
+ A subclass of the :mod:`email.message` module's
+ :class:`~email.message.Message`. Subclasses of :class:`mailbox.Message` add
+ mailbox-format-specific state and behavior.
+
+ If *message* is omitted, the new instance is created in a default, empty state.
+ If *message* is an :class:`email.message.Message` instance, its contents are
+ copied; furthermore, any format-specific information is converted insofar as
+ possible if *message* is a :class:`Message` instance. If *message* is a string
+ or a file, it should contain an :rfc:`2822`\ -compliant message, which is read
+ and parsed.
+
+ The format-specific state and behaviors offered by subclasses vary, but in
+ general it is only the properties that are not specific to a particular
+ mailbox that are supported (although presumably the properties are specific
+ to a particular mailbox format). For example, file offsets for single-file
+ mailbox formats and file names for directory-based mailbox formats are not
+ retained, because they are only applicable to the original mailbox. But state
+ such as whether a message has been read by the user or marked as important is
+ retained, because it applies to the message itself.
+
+ There is no requirement that :class:`Message` instances be used to represent
+ messages retrieved using :class:`Mailbox` instances. In some situations, the
+ time and memory required to generate :class:`Message` representations might
+ not be acceptable. For such situations, :class:`Mailbox` instances also
+ offer string and file-like representations, and a custom message factory may
+ be specified when a :class:`Mailbox` instance is initialized.
+
+
+.. _mailbox-maildirmessage:
+
+:class:`MaildirMessage`
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+
+.. class:: MaildirMessage([message])
+
+ A message with Maildir-specific behaviors. Parameter *message* has the same
+ meaning as with the :class:`Message` constructor.
+
+ Typically, a mail user agent application moves all of the messages in the
+ :file:`new` subdirectory to the :file:`cur` subdirectory after the first time
+ the user opens and closes the mailbox, recording that the messages are old
+ whether or not they've actually been read. Each message in :file:`cur` has an
+ "info" section added to its file name to store information about its state.
+ (Some mail readers may also add an "info" section to messages in
+ :file:`new`.) The "info" section may take one of two forms: it may contain
+ "2," followed by a list of standardized flags (e.g., "2,FR") or it may
+ contain "1," followed by so-called experimental information. Standard flags
+ for Maildir messages are as follows:
+
+ +------+---------+--------------------------------+
+ | Flag | Meaning | Explanation |
+ +======+=========+================================+
+ | D | Draft | Under composition |
+ +------+---------+--------------------------------+
+ | F | Flagged | Marked as important |
+ +------+---------+--------------------------------+
+ | P | Passed | Forwarded, resent, or bounced |
+ +------+---------+--------------------------------+
+ | R | Replied | Replied to |
+ +------+---------+--------------------------------+
+ | S | Seen | Read |
+ +------+---------+--------------------------------+
+ | T | Trashed | Marked for subsequent deletion |
+ +------+---------+--------------------------------+
+
+ :class:`MaildirMessage` instances offer the following methods:
+
+
+ .. method:: get_subdir()
+
+ Return either "new" (if the message should be stored in the :file:`new`
+ subdirectory) or "cur" (if the message should be stored in the :file:`cur`
+ subdirectory).
+
+ .. note::
+
+ A message is typically moved from :file:`new` to :file:`cur` after its
+ mailbox has been accessed, whether or not the message is has been
+ read. A message ``msg`` has been read if ``"S" in msg.get_flags()`` is
+ ``True``.
+
+
+ .. method:: set_subdir(subdir)
+
+ Set the subdirectory the message should be stored in. Parameter *subdir*
+ must be either "new" or "cur".
+
+
+ .. method:: get_flags()
+
+ Return a string specifying the flags that are currently set. If the
+ message complies with the standard Maildir format, the result is the
+ concatenation in alphabetical order of zero or one occurrence of each of
+ ``'D'``, ``'F'``, ``'P'``, ``'R'``, ``'S'``, and ``'T'``. The empty string
+ is returned if no flags are set or if "info" contains experimental
+ semantics.
+
+
+ .. method:: set_flags(flags)
+
+ Set the flags specified by *flags* and unset all others.
+
+
+ .. method:: add_flag(flag)
+
+ Set the flag(s) specified by *flag* without changing other flags. To add
+ more than one flag at a time, *flag* may be a string of more than one
+ character. The current "info" is overwritten whether or not it contains
+ experimental information rather than flags.
+
+
+ .. method:: remove_flag(flag)
+
+ Unset the flag(s) specified by *flag* without changing other flags. To
+ remove more than one flag at a time, *flag* maybe a string of more than
+ one character. If "info" contains experimental information rather than
+ flags, the current "info" is not modified.
+
+
+ .. method:: get_date()
+
+ Return the delivery date of the message as a floating-point number
+ representing seconds since the epoch.
+
+
+ .. method:: set_date(date)
+
+ Set the delivery date of the message to *date*, a floating-point number
+ representing seconds since the epoch.
+
+
+ .. method:: get_info()
+
+ Return a string containing the "info" for a message. This is useful for
+ accessing and modifying "info" that is experimental (i.e., not a list of
+ flags).
+
+
+ .. method:: set_info(info)
+
+ Set "info" to *info*, which should be a string.
+
+When a :class:`MaildirMessage` instance is created based upon an
+:class:`mboxMessage` or :class:`MMDFMessage` instance, the :mailheader:`Status`
+and :mailheader:`X-Status` headers are omitted and the following conversions
+take place:
+
++--------------------+----------------------------------------------+
+| Resulting state | :class:`mboxMessage` or :class:`MMDFMessage` |
+| | state |
++====================+==============================================+
+| "cur" subdirectory | O flag |
++--------------------+----------------------------------------------+

+.. _mailbox-mboxmessage:
+
+:class:`mboxMessage`
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+
+.. class:: mboxMessage([message])
+
+ A message with mbox-specific behaviors. Parameter *message* has the same meaning
+ as with the :class:`Message` constructor.
+
+ Messages in an mbox mailbox are stored together in a single file. The
+ sender's envelope address and the time of delivery are typically stored in a
+ line beginning with "From " that is used to indicate the start of a message,
+ though there is considerable variation in the exact format of this data among
+ mbox implementations. Flags that indicate the state of the message, such as
+ whether it has been read or marked as important, are typically stored in
+ :mailheader:`Status` and :mailheader:`X-Status` headers.
+
+ Conventional flags for mbox messages are as follows:
+
+ +------+----------+--------------------------------+
+ | Flag | Meaning | Explanation |
+ +======+==========+================================+
+ | R | Read | Read |
+ +------+----------+--------------------------------+
+ | O | Old | Previously detected by MUA |
+ +------+----------+--------------------------------+
+ | D | Deleted | Marked for subsequent deletion |
+ +------+----------+--------------------------------+
+ | F | Flagged | Marked as important |
+ +------+----------+--------------------------------+
+ | A | Answered | Replied to |
+ +------+----------+--------------------------------+
+
+ The "R" and "O" flags are stored in the :mailheader:`Status` header, and the
+ "D", "F", and "A" flags are stored in the :mailheader:`X-Status` header. The
+ flags and headers typically appear in the order mentioned.
+
+ :class:`mboxMessage` instances offer the following methods:
+
+
+ .. method:: get_from()
+
+ Return a string representing the "From " line that marks the start of the
+ message in an mbox mailbox. The leading "From " and the trailing newline
+ are excluded.
+
+
+ .. method:: set_from(from_, time_=None)
+
+ Set the "From " line to *from_*, which should be specified without a
+ leading "From " or trailing newline. For convenience, *time_* may be
+ specified and will be formatted appropriately and appended to *from_*. If
+ *time_* is specified, it should be a :class:`struct_time` instance, a
+ tuple suitable for passing to :meth:`time.strftime`, or ``True`` (to use
+ :meth:`time.gmtime`).
+
+
+ .. method:: get_flags()
+
+ Return a string specifying the flags that are currently set. If the
+ message complies with the conventional format, the result is the
+ concatenation in the following order of zero or one occurrence of each of
+ ``'R'``, ``'O'``, ``'D'``, ``'F'``, and ``'A'``.
+
+
+ .. method:: set_flags(flags)
+
+ Set the flags specified by *flags* and unset all others. Parameter *flags*
+ should be the concatenation in any order of zero or more occurrences of
+ each of ``'R'``, ``'O'``, ``'D'``, ``'F'``, and ``'A'``.
+
+
+ .. method:: add_flag(flag)
+
+ Set the flag(s) specified by *flag* without changing other flags. To add
+ more than one flag at a time, *flag* may be a string of more than one
+ character.
+
+
+ .. method:: remove_flag(flag)
+
+ Unset the flag(s) specified by *flag* without changing other flags. To
+ remove more than one flag at a time, *flag* maybe a string of more than
+ one character.
+
+When an :class:`mboxMessage` instance is created based upon a

+
+
+.. class:: MHMessage([message])
+
+ A message with MH-specific behaviors. Parameter *message* has the same meaning
+ as with the :class:`Message` constructor.
+
+ MH messages do not support marks or flags in the traditional sense, but they
+ do support sequences, which are logical groupings of arbitrary messages. Some
+ mail reading programs (although not the standard :program:`mh` and
+ :program:`nmh`) use sequences in much the same way flags are used with other
+ formats, as follows:
+
+ +----------+------------------------------------------+

+ +----------+------------------------------------------+
+ | replied | Replied to |

+ | flagged | Marked as important |
+ +----------+------------------------------------------+
+
+ :class:`MHMessage` instances offer the following methods:
+
+
+ .. method:: get_sequences()
+
+ Return a list of the names of sequences that include this message.
+
+
+ .. method:: set_sequences(sequences)
+
+ Set the list of sequences that include this message.
+
+
+ .. method:: add_sequence(sequence)
+
+ Add *sequence* to the list of sequences that include this message.
+
+
+ .. method:: remove_sequence(sequence)
+
+ Remove *sequence* from the list of sequences that include this message.
+
+When an :class:`MHMessage` instance is created based upon a

+
+.. _mailbox-babylmessage:
+
+:class:`BabylMessage`
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+
+.. class:: BabylMessage([message])
+
+ A message with Babyl-specific behaviors. Parameter *message* has the same
+ meaning as with the :class:`Message` constructor.
+
+ Certain message labels, called :dfn:`attributes`, are defined by convention
+ to have special meanings. The attributes are as follows:
+
+ +-----------+------------------------------------------+
+ | Label | Explanation |
+ +===========+==========================================+
+ | unseen | Not read, but previously detected by MUA |
+ +-----------+------------------------------------------+
+ | deleted | Marked for subsequent deletion |

+ | forwarded | Forwarded |
+ +-----------+------------------------------------------+
+ | edited | Modified by the user |
+ +-----------+------------------------------------------+
+ | resent | Resent |
+ +-----------+------------------------------------------+
+
+ By default, Rmail displays only visible headers. The :class:`BabylMessage`
+ class, though, uses the original headers because they are more
+ complete. Visible headers may be accessed explicitly if desired.
+
+ :class:`BabylMessage` instances offer the following methods:
+
+
+ .. method:: get_labels()
+
+ Return a list of labels on the message.
+
+
+ .. method:: set_labels(labels)
+
+ Set the list of labels on the message to *labels*.
+
+
+ .. method:: add_label(label)
+
+ Add *label* to the list of labels on the message.
+
+
+ .. method:: remove_label(label)
+
+ Remove *label* from the list of labels on the message.
+
+
+ .. method:: get_visible()
+
+ Return an :class:`Message` instance whose headers are the message's
+ visible headers and whose body is empty.
+
+
+ .. method:: set_visible(visible)
+
+ Set the message's visible headers to be the same as the headers in
+ *message*. Parameter *visible* should be a :class:`Message` instance, an
+ :class:`email.message.Message` instance, a string, or a file-like object
+ (which should be open in text mode).
+
+
+ .. method:: update_visible()
+
+ When a :class:`BabylMessage` instance's original headers are modified, the
+ visible headers are not automatically modified to correspond. This method
+ updates the visible headers as follows: each visible header with a
+ corresponding original header is set to the value of the original header,
+ each visible header without a corresponding original header is removed,
+ and any of :mailheader:`Date`, :mailheader:`From`, :mailheader:`Reply-To`,
+ :mailheader:`To`, :mailheader:`CC`, and :mailheader:`Subject` that are
+ present in the original headers but not the visible headers are added to
+ the visible headers.
+
+When a :class:`BabylMessage` instance is created based upon a
+:class:`MaildirMessage` instance, the following conversions take place:

+
+
+.. class:: MMDFMessage([message])
+
+ A message with MMDF-specific behaviors. Parameter *message* has the same meaning
+ as with the :class:`Message` constructor.
+
+ As with message in an mbox mailbox, MMDF messages are stored with the
+ sender's address and the delivery date in an initial line beginning with
+ "From ". Likewise, flags that indicate the state of the message are

+Exceptions
+----------
+
+The following exception classes are defined in the :mod:`mailbox` module:
+
+
+.. exception:: Error()
+
+ The based class for all other module-specific exceptions.
+
+
+.. exception:: NoSuchMailboxError()
+
+ Raised when a mailbox is expected but is not found, such as when instantiating a
+ :class:`Mailbox` subclass with a path that does not exist (and with the *create*
+ parameter set to ``False``), or when opening a folder that does not exist.
+
+
+.. exception:: NotEmptyError()
+
+ Raised when a mailbox is not empty but is expected to be, such as when deleting
+ a folder that contains messages.
+
+
+.. exception:: ExternalClashError()
+
+ Raised when some mailbox-related condition beyond the control of the program
+ causes it to be unable to proceed, such as when failing to acquire a lock that
+ another program already holds a lock, or when a uniquely-generated file name
+ already exists.
+
+
+.. exception:: FormatError()
+
+ Raised when the data in a file cannot be parsed, such as when an :class:`MH`
+ instance attempts to read a corrupted :file:`.mh_sequences` file.
+
+
+.. _mailbox-deprecated:
+
+Deprecated classes and methods
+------------------------------
+
+.. deprecated:: 2.6
+
+Older versions of the :mod:`mailbox` module do not support modification of
+mailboxes, such as adding or removing message, and do not provide classes to
+represent format-specific message properties. For backward compatibility, the
+older mailbox classes are still available, but the newer classes should be used
+in preference to them. The old classes have been removed in Python 3.
+
+Older mailbox objects support only iteration and provide a single public method:
+
+
+.. method:: oldmailbox.next()
+
+ Return the next message in the mailbox, created with the optional *factory*
+ argument passed into the mailbox object's constructor. By default this is an
+ :class:`rfc822.Message` object (see the :mod:`rfc822` module). Depending on the
+ mailbox implementation the *fp* attribute of this object may be a true file
+ object or a class instance simulating a file object, taking care of things like
+ message boundaries if multiple mail messages are contained in a single file,
+ etc. If no more messages are available, this method returns ``None``.
+
+Most of the older mailbox classes have names that differ from the current
+mailbox class names, except for :class:`Maildir`. For this reason, the new
+:class:`Maildir` class defines a :meth:`!next` method and its constructor differs
+slightly from those of the other new mailbox classes.
+
+The older mailbox classes whose names are not the same as their newer
+counterparts are as follows:
+
+
+.. class:: UnixMailbox(fp[, factory])
+
+ Access to a classic Unix-style mailbox, where all messages are contained in a
+ single file and separated by ``From`` (a.k.a. ``From_``) lines. The file object
+ *fp* points to the mailbox file. The optional *factory* parameter is a callable
+ that should create new message objects. *factory* is called with one argument,
+ *fp* by the :meth:`!next` method of the mailbox object. The default is the
+ :class:`rfc822.Message` class (see the :mod:`rfc822` module -- and the note
+ below).
+
+ .. note::
+
+ For reasons of this module's internal implementation, you will probably want to
+ open the *fp* object in binary mode. This is especially important on Windows.
+
+ For maximum portability, messages in a Unix-style mailbox are separated by any
+ line that begins exactly with the string ``'From '`` (note the trailing space)
+ if preceded by exactly two newlines. Because of the wide-range of variations in
+ practice, nothing else on the ``From_`` line should be considered. However, the
+ current implementation doesn't check for the leading two newlines. This is
+ usually fine for most applications.
+
+ The :class:`UnixMailbox` class implements a more strict version of ``From_``
+ line checking, using a regular expression that usually correctly matched
+ ``From_`` delimiters. It considers delimiter line to be separated by ``From
+ name time`` lines. For maximum portability, use the
+ :class:`PortableUnixMailbox` class instead. This class is identical to
+ :class:`UnixMailbox` except that individual messages are separated by only
+ ``From`` lines.
+
+
+.. class:: PortableUnixMailbox(fp[, factory])
+
+ A less-strict version of :class:`UnixMailbox`, which considers only the ``From``
+ at the beginning of the line separating messages. The "*name* *time*" portion
+ of the From line is ignored, to protect against some variations that are
+ observed in practice. This works since lines in the message which begin with
+ ``'From '`` are quoted by mail handling software at delivery-time.
+
+
+.. class:: MmdfMailbox(fp[, factory])
+
+ Access an MMDF-style mailbox, where all messages are contained in a single file
+ and separated by lines consisting of 4 control-A characters. The file object
+ *fp* points to the mailbox file. Optional *factory* is as with the
+ :class:`UnixMailbox` class.
+
+
+.. class:: MHMailbox(dirname[, factory])
+
+ Access an MH mailbox, a directory with each message in a separate file with a
+ numeric name. The name of the mailbox directory is passed in *dirname*.
+ *factory* is as with the :class:`UnixMailbox` class.
+
+
+.. class:: BabylMailbox(fp[, factory])
+
+ Access a Babyl mailbox, which is similar to an MMDF mailbox. In Babyl format,
+ each message has two sets of headers, the *original* headers and the *visible*
+ headers. The original headers appear before a line containing only ``'*** EOOH
+ ***'`` (End-Of-Original-Headers) and the visible headers appear after the
+ ``EOOH`` line. Babyl-compliant mail readers will show you only the visible
+ headers, and :class:`BabylMailbox` objects will return messages containing only
+ the visible headers. You'll have to do your own parsing of the mailbox file to
+ get at the original headers. Mail messages start with the EOOH line and end
+ with a line containing only ``'\037\014'``. *factory* is as with the
+ :class:`UnixMailbox` class.
+
+If you wish to use the older mailbox classes with the :mod:`email` module rather
+than the deprecated :mod:`rfc822` module, you can do so as follows::
+
+ import email
+ import email.Errors
+ import mailbox
+
+ def msgfactory(fp):
+ try:
+ return email.message_from_file(fp)
+ except email.Errors.MessageParseError:
+ # Don't return None since that will
+ # stop the mailbox iterator
+ return ''
+
+ mbox = mailbox.UnixMailbox(fp, msgfactory)
+
+Alternatively, if you know your mailbox contains only well-formed MIME messages,
+you can simplify this to::
+
+ import email
+ import mailbox
+
+ mbox = mailbox.UnixMailbox(fp, email.message_from_file)
+
+
+.. _mailbox-examples:
+
+Examples
+--------
+
+A simple example of printing the subjects of all messages in a mailbox that seem
+interesting::
+
+ import mailbox
+ for message in mailbox.mbox('~/mbox'):
+ subject = message['subject'] # Could possibly be None.
+ if subject and 'python' in subject.lower():
+ print subject
+
+To copy all mail from a Babyl mailbox to an MH mailbox, converting all of the
+format-specific information that can be converted::
+
+ import mailbox
+ destination = mailbox.MH('~/Mail')
+ destination.lock()
+ for message in mailbox.Babyl('~/RMAIL'):
+ destination.add(mailbox.MHMessage(message))
+ destination.flush()
+ destination.unlock()
+
+This example sorts mail from several mailing lists into different mailboxes,
+being careful to avoid mail corruption due to concurrent modification by other
+programs, mail loss due to interruption of the program, or premature termination

+:mod:`mailcap` --- Mailcap file handling
+========================================
+
+.. module:: mailcap
+ :synopsis: Mailcap file handling.
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/mailcap.py`
+
+--------------
+
+Mailcap files are used to configure how MIME-aware applications such as mail
+readers and Web browsers react to files with different MIME types. (The name
+"mailcap" is derived from the phrase "mail capability".) For example, a mailcap
+file might contain a line like ``video/mpeg; xmpeg %s``. Then, if the user
+encounters an email message or Web document with the MIME type
+:mimetype:`video/mpeg`, ``%s`` will be replaced by a filename (usually one
+belonging to a temporary file) and the :program:`xmpeg` program can be
+automatically started to view the file.
+
+The mailcap format is documented in :rfc:`1524`, "A User Agent Configuration
+Mechanism For Multimedia Mail Format Information," but is not an Internet
+standard. However, mailcap files are supported on most Unix systems.
+
+
+.. function:: findmatch(caps, MIMEtype[, key[, filename[, plist]]])
+
+ Return a 2-tuple; the first element is a string containing the command line to
+ be executed (which can be passed to :func:`os.system`), and the second element
+ is the mailcap entry for a given MIME type. If no matching MIME type can be
+ found, ``(None, None)`` is returned.
+
+ *key* is the name of the field desired, which represents the type of activity to
+ be performed; the default value is 'view', since in the most common case you
+ simply want to view the body of the MIME-typed data. Other possible values
+ might be 'compose' and 'edit', if you wanted to create a new body of the given
+ MIME type or alter the existing body data. See :rfc:`1524` for a complete list
+ of these fields.
+
+ *filename* is the filename to be substituted for ``%s`` in the command line; the
+ default value is ``'/dev/null'`` which is almost certainly not what you want, so
+ usually you'll override it by specifying a filename.
+
+ *plist* can be a list containing named parameters; the default value is simply
+ an empty list. Each entry in the list must be a string containing the parameter
+ name, an equals sign (``'='``), and the parameter's value. Mailcap entries can
+ contain named parameters like ``%{foo}``, which will be replaced by the value
+ of the parameter named 'foo'. For example, if the command line ``showpartial
+ %{id} %{number} %{total}`` was in a mailcap file, and *plist* was set to
+ ``['id=1', 'number=2', 'total=3']``, the resulting command line would be
+ ``'showpartial 1 2 3'``.
+
+ In a mailcap file, the "test" field can optionally be specified to test some
+ external condition (such as the machine architecture, or the window system in
+ use) to determine whether or not the mailcap line applies. :func:`findmatch`
+ will automatically check such conditions and skip the entry if the check fails.
+
+
+.. function:: getcaps()
+
+ Returns a dictionary mapping MIME types to a list of mailcap file entries. This
+ dictionary must be passed to the :func:`findmatch` function. An entry is stored
+ as a list of dictionaries, but it shouldn't be necessary to know the details of
+ this representation.
+
+ The information is derived from all of the mailcap files found on the system.
+ Settings in the user's mailcap file :file:`$HOME/.mailcap` will override
+ settings in the system mailcap files :file:`/etc/mailcap`,
+ :file:`/usr/etc/mailcap`, and :file:`/usr/local/etc/mailcap`.
+
+An example usage::
+
+ >>> import mailcap
+ >>> d=mailcap.getcaps()
+ >>> mailcap.findmatch(d, 'video/mpeg', filename='tmp1223')
+ ('xmpeg tmp1223', {'view': 'xmpeg %s'})

+Structured Markup Processing Tools
+**********************************
+
+Python supports a variety of modules to work with various forms of structured
+data markup. This includes modules to work with the Standard Generalized Markup
+Language (SGML) and the Hypertext Markup Language (HTML), and several interfaces
+for working with the Extensible Markup Language (XML).
+
+It is important to note that modules in the :mod:`xml` package require that
+there be at least one SAX-compliant XML parser available. Starting with Python
+2.3, the Expat parser is included with Python, so the :mod:`xml.parsers.expat`
+module will always be available. You may still want to be aware of the `PyXML
+add-on package <http://pyxml.sourceforge.net/>`_; that package provides an
+extended set of XML libraries for Python.
+
+The documentation for the :mod:`xml.dom` and :mod:`xml.sax` packages are the
+definition of the Python bindings for the DOM and SAX interfaces.

+
+:mod:`marshal` --- Internal Python object serialization
+=======================================================
+
+.. module:: marshal
+ :synopsis: Convert Python objects to streams of bytes and back (with different
+ constraints).
+
+
+This module contains functions that can read and write Python values in a binary
+format. The format is specific to Python, but independent of machine
+architecture issues (e.g., you can write a Python value to a file on a PC,
+transport the file to a Sun, and read it back there). Details of the format are
+undocumented on purpose; it may change between Python versions (although it
+rarely does). [#]_
+
+.. index::
+ module: pickle
+ module: shelve
+ object: code
+
+This is not a general "persistence" module. For general persistence and
+transfer of Python objects through RPC calls, see the modules :mod:`pickle` and
+:mod:`shelve`. The :mod:`marshal` module exists mainly to support reading and
+writing the "pseudo-compiled" code for Python modules of :file:`.pyc` files.
+Therefore, the Python maintainers reserve the right to modify the marshal format
+in backward incompatible ways should the need arise. If you're serializing and
+de-serializing Python objects, use the :mod:`pickle` module instead -- the
+performance is comparable, version independence is guaranteed, and pickle
+supports a substantially wider range of objects than marshal.
+
+.. warning::
+
+ The :mod:`marshal` module is not intended to be secure against erroneous or
+ maliciously constructed data. Never unmarshal data received from an
+ untrusted or unauthenticated source.
+
+Not all Python object types are supported; in general, only objects whose value
+is independent from a particular invocation of Python can be written and read by
+this module. The following types are supported: booleans, integers, long
+integers, floating point numbers, complex numbers, strings, Unicode objects,
+tuples, lists, sets, frozensets, dictionaries, and code objects, where it should
+be understood that tuples, lists, sets, frozensets and dictionaries are only
+supported as long as the values contained therein are themselves supported; and
+recursive lists, sets and dictionaries should not be written (they will cause
+infinite loops). The singletons :const:`None`, :const:`Ellipsis` and
+:exc:`StopIteration` can also be marshalled and unmarshalled.
+
+.. warning::
+
+ On machines where C's ``long int`` type has more than 32 bits (such as the
+ DEC Alpha), it is possible to create plain Python integers that are longer
+ than 32 bits. If such an integer is marshaled and read back in on a machine
+ where C's ``long int`` type has only 32 bits, a Python long integer object
+ is returned instead. While of a different type, the numeric value is the
+ same. (This behavior is new in Python 2.2. In earlier versions, all but the
+ least-significant 32 bits of the value were lost, and a warning message was
+ printed.)
+
+There are functions that read/write files as well as functions operating on
+strings.
+
+The module defines these functions:
+
+
+.. function:: dump(value, file[, version])
+
+ Write the value on the open file. The value must be a supported type. The
+ file must be an open file object such as ``sys.stdout`` or returned by
+ :func:`open` or :func:`os.popen`. It must be opened in binary mode (``'wb'``
+ or ``'w+b'``).
+
+ If the value has (or contains an object that has) an unsupported type, a
+ :exc:`ValueError` exception is raised --- but garbage data will also be written
+ to the file. The object will not be properly read back by :func:`load`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+ The *version* argument indicates the data format that ``dump`` should use
+ (see below).
+
+
+.. function:: load(file)
+
+ Read one value from the open file and return it. If no valid value is read
+ (e.g. because the data has a different Python version's incompatible marshal
+ format), raise :exc:`EOFError`, :exc:`ValueError` or :exc:`TypeError`. The
+ file must be an open file object opened in binary mode (``'rb'`` or
+ ``'r+b'``).
+
+ .. note::
+
+ If an object containing an unsupported type was marshalled with :func:`dump`,
+ :func:`load` will substitute ``None`` for the unmarshallable type.
+
+
+.. function:: dumps(value[, version])
+
+ Return the string that would be written to a file by ``dump(value, file)``. The
+ value must be a supported type. Raise a :exc:`ValueError` exception if value
+ has (or contains an object that has) an unsupported type.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+ The *version* argument indicates the data format that ``dumps`` should use
+ (see below).
+
+
+.. function:: loads(string)
+
+ Convert the string to a value. If no valid value is found, raise
+ :exc:`EOFError`, :exc:`ValueError` or :exc:`TypeError`. Extra characters in the
+ string are ignored.
+
+
+In addition, the following constants are defined:
+
+.. data:: version
+
+ Indicates the format that the module uses. Version 0 is the historical format,
+ version 1 (added in Python 2.4) shares interned strings and version 2 (added in
+ Python 2.5) uses a binary format for floating point numbers. The current version
+ is 2.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+.. rubric:: Footnotes
+
+.. [#] The name of this module stems from a bit of terminology used by the designers of
+ Modula-3 (amongst others), who use the term "marshalling" for shipping of data
+ around in a self-contained form. Strictly speaking, "to marshal" means to
+ convert some data from internal to external form (in an RPC buffer for instance)
+ and "unmarshalling" for the reverse process.

+:mod:`math` --- Mathematical functions
+======================================
+
+.. module:: math
+ :synopsis: Mathematical functions (sin() etc.).
+
+.. testsetup::
+
+ from math import fsum
+
+This module is always available. It provides access to the mathematical
+functions defined by the C standard.
+
+These functions cannot be used with complex numbers; use the functions of the
+same name from the :mod:`cmath` module if you require support for complex
+numbers. The distinction between functions which support complex numbers and
+those which don't is made since most users do not want to learn quite as much
+mathematics as required to understand complex numbers. Receiving an exception
+instead of a complex result allows earlier detection of the unexpected complex
+number used as a parameter, so that the programmer can determine how and why it
+was generated in the first place.
+
+The following functions are provided by this module. Except when explicitly
+noted otherwise, all return values are floats.
+
+
+Number-theoretic and representation functions
+---------------------------------------------
+
+.. function:: ceil(x)
+
+ Return the ceiling of *x* as a float, the smallest integer value greater than or
+ equal to *x*.
+
+
+.. function:: copysign(x, y)
+
+ Return *x* with the sign of *y*. On a platform that supports
+ signed zeros, ``copysign(1.0, -0.0)`` returns *-1.0*.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: fabs(x)
+
+ Return the absolute value of *x*.
+
+
+.. function:: factorial(x)
+
+ Return *x* factorial. Raises :exc:`ValueError` if *x* is not integral or
+ is negative.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: floor(x)
+
+ Return the floor of *x* as a float, the largest integer value less than or equal
+ to *x*.
+
+
+.. function:: fmod(x, y)
+
+ Return ``fmod(x, y)``, as defined by the platform C library. Note that the
+ Python expression ``x % y`` may not return the same result. The intent of the C
+ standard is that ``fmod(x, y)`` be exactly (mathematically; to infinite
+ precision) equal to ``x - n*y`` for some integer *n* such that the result has
+ the same sign as *x* and magnitude less than ``abs(y)``. Python's ``x % y``
+ returns a result with the sign of *y* instead, and may not be exactly computable
+ for float arguments. For example, ``fmod(-1e-100, 1e100)`` is ``-1e-100``, but
+ the result of Python's ``-1e-100 % 1e100`` is ``1e100-1e-100``, which cannot be
+ represented exactly as a float, and rounds to the surprising ``1e100``. For
+ this reason, function :func:`fmod` is generally preferred when working with
+ floats, while Python's ``x % y`` is preferred when working with integers.
+
+
+.. function:: frexp(x)
+
+ Return the mantissa and exponent of *x* as the pair ``(m, e)``. *m* is a float
+ and *e* is an integer such that ``x == m * 2**e`` exactly. If *x* is zero,
+ returns ``(0.0, 0)``, otherwise ``0.5 <= abs(m) < 1``. This is used to "pick
+ apart" the internal representation of a float in a portable way.
+
+
+.. function:: fsum(iterable)
+
+ Return an accurate floating point sum of values in the iterable. Avoids
+ loss of precision by tracking multiple intermediate partial sums::
+
+ >>> sum([.1, .1, .1, .1, .1, .1, .1, .1, .1, .1])
+ 0.9999999999999999
+ >>> fsum([.1, .1, .1, .1, .1, .1, .1, .1, .1, .1])
+ 1.0
+
+ The algorithm's accuracy depends on IEEE-754 arithmetic guarantees and the
+ typical case where the rounding mode is half-even. On some non-Windows
+ builds, the underlying C library uses extended precision addition and may
+ occasionally double-round an intermediate sum causing it to be off in its
+ least significant bit.
+
+ For further discussion and two alternative approaches, see the `ASPN cookbook
+ recipes for accurate floating point summation
+ <http://code.activestate.com/recipes/393090/>`_\.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: isinf(x)
+
+ Check if the float *x* is positive or negative infinity.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: isnan(x)
+
+ Check if the float *x* is a NaN (not a number). For more information
+ on NaNs, see the IEEE 754 standards.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: ldexp(x, i)
+
+ Return ``x * (2**i)``. This is essentially the inverse of function
+ :func:`frexp`.
+
+
+.. function:: modf(x)
+
+ Return the fractional and integer parts of *x*. Both results carry the sign
+ of *x* and are floats.
+
+
+.. function:: trunc(x)
+
+ Return the :class:`Real` value *x* truncated to an :class:`Integral` (usually
+ a long integer). Uses the ``__trunc__`` method.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+Note that :func:`frexp` and :func:`modf` have a different call/return pattern
+than their C equivalents: they take a single argument and return a pair of
+values, rather than returning their second return value through an 'output
+parameter' (there is no such thing in Python).
+
+For the :func:`ceil`, :func:`floor`, and :func:`modf` functions, note that *all*
+floating-point numbers of sufficiently large magnitude are exact integers.
+Python floats typically carry no more than 53 bits of precision (the same as the
+platform C double type), in which case any float *x* with ``abs(x) >= 2**52``
+necessarily has no fractional bits.
+
+
+Power and logarithmic functions
+-------------------------------
+
+.. function:: exp(x)
+
+ Return ``e**x``.
+
+
+.. function:: expm1(x)
+
+ Return ``e**x - 1``. For small floats *x*, the subtraction in
+ ``exp(x) - 1`` can result in a significant loss of precision; the
+ :func:`expm1` function provides a way to compute this quantity to
+ full precision::
+
+ >>> from math import exp, expm1
+ >>> exp(1e-5) - 1 # gives result accurate to 11 places
+ 1.0000050000069649e-05
+ >>> expm1(1e-5) # result accurate to full precision
+ 1.0000050000166668e-05
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+.. function:: log(x[, base])
+
+ With one argument, return the natural logarithm of *x* (to base *e*).
+
+ With two arguments, return the logarithm of *x* to the given *base*,
+ calculated as ``log(x)/log(base)``.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ *base* argument added.
+
+
+.. function:: log1p(x)
+
+ Return the natural logarithm of *1+x* (base *e*). The
+ result is calculated in a way which is accurate for *x* near zero.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: log10(x)
+
+ Return the base-10 logarithm of *x*. This is usually more accurate
+ than ``log(x, 10)``.
+
+
+.. function:: pow(x, y)
+
+ Return ``x`` raised to the power ``y``. Exceptional cases follow
+ Annex 'F' of the C99 standard as far as possible. In particular,
+ ``pow(1.0, x)`` and ``pow(x, 0.0)`` always return ``1.0``, even
+ when ``x`` is a zero or a NaN. If both ``x`` and ``y`` are finite,
+ ``x`` is negative, and ``y`` is not an integer then ``pow(x, y)``
+ is undefined, and raises :exc:`ValueError`.
+
+ Unlike the built-in ``**`` operator, :func:`math.pow` converts both
+ its arguments to type :class:`float`. Use ``**`` or the built-in
+ :func:`pow` function for computing exact integer powers.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ The outcome of ``1**nan`` and ``nan**0`` was undefined.
+
+
+.. function:: sqrt(x)
+
+ Return the square root of *x*.
+
+
+Trigonometric functions
+-----------------------
+
+.. function:: acos(x)
+
+ Return the arc cosine of *x*, in radians.
+
+
+.. function:: asin(x)
+
+ Return the arc sine of *x*, in radians.
+
+
+.. function:: atan(x)
+
+ Return the arc tangent of *x*, in radians.
+
+
+.. function:: atan2(y, x)
+
+ Return ``atan(y / x)``, in radians. The result is between ``-pi`` and ``pi``.
+ The vector in the plane from the origin to point ``(x, y)`` makes this angle
+ with the positive X axis. The point of :func:`atan2` is that the signs of both
+ inputs are known to it, so it can compute the correct quadrant for the angle.
+ For example, ``atan(1)`` and ``atan2(1, 1)`` are both ``pi/4``, but ``atan2(-1,
+ -1)`` is ``-3*pi/4``.
+
+
+.. function:: cos(x)
+
+ Return the cosine of *x* radians.
+
+
+.. function:: hypot(x, y)
+
+ Return the Euclidean norm, ``sqrt(x*x + y*y)``. This is the length of the vector
+ from the origin to point ``(x, y)``.
+
+
+.. function:: sin(x)
+
+ Return the sine of *x* radians.
+
+
+.. function:: tan(x)
+
+ Return the tangent of *x* radians.
+
+
+Angular conversion
+------------------
+
+.. function:: degrees(x)
+
+ Converts angle *x* from radians to degrees.
+
+
+.. function:: radians(x)
+
+ Converts angle *x* from degrees to radians.
+
+
+Hyperbolic functions
+--------------------
+
+.. function:: acosh(x)
+
+ Return the inverse hyperbolic cosine of *x*.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: asinh(x)
+
+ Return the inverse hyperbolic sine of *x*.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+

+
+ Return the inverse hyperbolic tangent of *x*.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6

+
+
+.. function:: sinh(x)
+
+ Return the hyperbolic sine of *x*.
+
+
+.. function:: tanh(x)
+
+ Return the hyperbolic tangent of *x*.
+
+
+Special functions
+-----------------
+
+.. function:: erf(x)
+
+ Return the error function at *x*.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+.. function:: erfc(x)
+
+ Return the complementary error function at *x*.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7

+Constants
+---------
+
+.. data:: pi
+
+ The mathematical constant π = 3.141592..., to available precision.
+

+.. data:: e
+
+ The mathematical constant e = 2.718281..., to available precision.
+
+
+.. impl-detail::
+
+ The :mod:`math` module consists mostly of thin wrappers around the platform C
+ math library functions. Behavior in exceptional cases follows Annex F of
+ the C99 standard where appropriate. The current implementation will raise
+ :exc:`ValueError` for invalid operations like ``sqrt(-1.0)`` or ``log(0.0)``
+ (where C99 Annex F recommends signaling invalid operation or divide-by-zero),
+ and :exc:`OverflowError` for results that overflow (for example,
+ ``exp(1000.0)``). A NaN will not be returned from any of the functions
+ above unless one or more of the input arguments was a NaN; in that case,
+ most functions will return a NaN, but (again following C99 Annex F) there
+ are some exceptions to this rule, for example ``pow(float('nan'), 0.0)`` or
+ ``hypot(float('nan'), float('inf'))``.
+
+ Note that Python makes no effort to distinguish signaling NaNs from
+ quiet NaNs, and behavior for signaling NaNs remains unspecified.
+ Typical behavior is to treat all NaNs as though they were quiet.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ Behavior in special cases now aims to follow C99 Annex F. In earlier
+ versions of Python the behavior in special cases was loosely specified.

+:dfn:`digest` (a strong kind of 128-bit checksum, a.k.a. "fingerprint") of the
+concatenation of the strings fed to it so far using the :meth:`digest` method.
+
+For example, to obtain the digest of the string ``'Nobody inspects the spammish
+repetition'``:
+
+ >>> import md5
+ >>> m = md5.new()
+ >>> m.update("Nobody inspects")
+ >>> m.update(" the spammish repetition")
+ >>> m.digest()
+ '\xbbd\x9c\x83\xdd\x1e\xa5\xc9\xd9\xde\xc9\xa1\x8d\xf0\xff\xe9'
+
+More condensed:
+
+ >>> md5.new("Nobody inspects the spammish repetition").digest()
+ '\xbbd\x9c\x83\xdd\x1e\xa5\xc9\xd9\xde\xc9\xa1\x8d\xf0\xff\xe9'
+
+The following values are provided as constants in the module and as attributes
+of the md5 objects returned by :func:`new`:
+
+
+.. data:: digest_size
+
+ The size of the resulting digest in bytes. This is always ``16``.
+
+The md5 module provides the following functions:
+
+
+.. function:: new([arg])
+
+ Return a new md5 object. If *arg* is present, the method call ``update(arg)``
+ is made.
+
+
+.. function:: md5([arg])
+
+ For backward compatibility reasons, this is an alternative name for the
+ :func:`new` function.
+
+An md5 object has the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: md5.update(arg)
+
+ Update the md5 object with the string *arg*. Repeated calls are equivalent to a
+ single call with the concatenation of all the arguments: ``m.update(a);
+ m.update(b)`` is equivalent to ``m.update(a+b)``.
+
+
+.. method:: md5.digest()
+
+ Return the digest of the strings passed to the :meth:`update` method so far.
+ This is a 16-byte string which may contain non-ASCII characters, including null
+ bytes.
+
+
+.. method:: md5.hexdigest()
+
+ Like :meth:`digest` except the digest is returned as a string of length 32,
+ containing only hexadecimal digits. This may be used to exchange the value
+ safely in email or other non-binary environments.
+
+
+.. method:: md5.copy()
+
+ Return a copy ("clone") of the md5 object. This can be used to efficiently
+ compute the digests of strings that share a common initial substring.
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ Module :mod:`sha`
+ Similar module implementing the Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA). The SHA algorithm
+ is considered a more secure hash.

+:mod:`mimetypes` --- Map filenames to MIME types
+================================================
+
+.. module:: mimetypes
+ :synopsis: Mapping of filename extensions to MIME types.
+.. sectionauthor:: Fred L. Drake, Jr. <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. index:: pair: MIME; content type
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/mimetypes.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`mimetypes` module converts between a filename or URL and the MIME type
+associated with the filename extension. Conversions are provided from filename
+to MIME type and from MIME type to filename extension; encodings are not
+supported for the latter conversion.
+
+The module provides one class and a number of convenience functions. The
+functions are the normal interface to this module, but some applications may be
+interested in the class as well.
+
+The functions described below provide the primary interface for this module. If
+the module has not been initialized, they will call :func:`init` if they rely on
+the information :func:`init` sets up.
+
+
+.. function:: guess_type(url, strict=True)
+
+ .. index:: pair: MIME; headers
+
+ Guess the type of a file based on its filename or URL, given by *url*. The
+ return value is a tuple ``(type, encoding)`` where *type* is ``None`` if the
+ type can't be guessed (missing or unknown suffix) or a string of the form
+ ``'type/subtype'``, usable for a MIME :mailheader:`content-type` header.
+
+ *encoding* is ``None`` for no encoding or the name of the program used to encode
+ (e.g. :program:`compress` or :program:`gzip`). The encoding is suitable for use
+ as a :mailheader:`Content-Encoding` header, **not** as a
+ :mailheader:`Content-Transfer-Encoding` header. The mappings are table driven.
+ Encoding suffixes are case sensitive; type suffixes are first tried case
+ sensitively, then case insensitively.
+
+ The optional *strict* argument is a flag specifying whether the list of known MIME types
+ is limited to only the official types `registered with IANA
+ <http://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types/>`_.
+ When *strict* is ``True`` (the default), only the IANA types are supported; when
+ *strict* is ``False``, some additional non-standard but commonly used MIME types
+ are also recognized.
+
+
+.. function:: guess_all_extensions(type, strict=True)
+
+ Guess the extensions for a file based on its MIME type, given by *type*. The
+ return value is a list of strings giving all possible filename extensions,
+ including the leading dot (``'.'``). The extensions are not guaranteed to have
+ been associated with any particular data stream, but would be mapped to the MIME
+ type *type* by :func:`guess_type`.
+
+ The optional *strict* argument has the same meaning as with the :func:`guess_type` function.
+
+
+.. function:: guess_extension(type, strict=True)
+
+ Guess the extension for a file based on its MIME type, given by *type*. The
+ return value is a string giving a filename extension, including the leading dot
+ (``'.'``). The extension is not guaranteed to have been associated with any
+ particular data stream, but would be mapped to the MIME type *type* by
+ :func:`guess_type`. If no extension can be guessed for *type*, ``None`` is
+ returned.
+
+ The optional *strict* argument has the same meaning as with the :func:`guess_type` function.
+
+Some additional functions and data items are available for controlling the
+behavior of the module.
+
+
+.. function:: init(files=None)
+
+ Initialize the internal data structures. If given, *files* must be a sequence
+ of file names which should be used to augment the default type map. If omitted,
+ the file names to use are taken from :const:`knownfiles`; on Windows, the
+ current registry settings are loaded. Each file named in *files* or
+ :const:`knownfiles` takes precedence over those named before it. Calling
+ :func:`init` repeatedly is allowed.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ Previously, Windows registry settings were ignored.
+
+
+.. function:: read_mime_types(filename)
+
+ Load the type map given in the file *filename*, if it exists. The type map is
+ returned as a dictionary mapping filename extensions, including the leading dot
+ (``'.'``), to strings of the form ``'type/subtype'``. If the file *filename*
+ does not exist or cannot be read, ``None`` is returned.
+
+
+.. function:: add_type(type, ext, strict=True)
+
+ Add a mapping from the MIME type *type* to the extension *ext*. When the
+ extension is already known, the new type will replace the old one. When the type
+ is already known the extension will be added to the list of known extensions.
+
+ When *strict* is ``True`` (the default), the mapping will added to the official MIME
+ types, otherwise to the non-standard ones.
+
+
+.. data:: inited
+
+ Flag indicating whether or not the global data structures have been initialized.
+ This is set to ``True`` by :func:`init`.
+
+
+.. data:: knownfiles
+
+ .. index:: single: file; mime.types
+
+ List of type map file names commonly installed. These files are typically named
+ :file:`mime.types` and are installed in different locations by different
+ packages.
+
+
+.. data:: suffix_map
+
+ Dictionary mapping suffixes to suffixes. This is used to allow recognition of
+ encoded files for which the encoding and the type are indicated by the same
+ extension. For example, the :file:`.tgz` extension is mapped to :file:`.tar.gz`
+ to allow the encoding and type to be recognized separately.
+
+
+.. data:: encodings_map
+
+ Dictionary mapping filename extensions to encoding types.
+
+
+.. data:: types_map
+
+ Dictionary mapping filename extensions to MIME types.
+
+
+.. data:: common_types
+
+ Dictionary mapping filename extensions to non-standard, but commonly found MIME
+ types.
+
+
+An example usage of the module::
+
+ >>> import mimetypes
+ >>> mimetypes.init()
+ >>> mimetypes.knownfiles
+ ['/etc/mime.types', '/etc/httpd/mime.types', ... ]
+ >>> mimetypes.suffix_map['.tgz']
+ '.tar.gz'
+ >>> mimetypes.encodings_map['.gz']
+ 'gzip'
+ >>> mimetypes.types_map['.tgz']
+ 'application/x-tar-gz'
+
+
+.. _mimetypes-objects:
+
+MimeTypes Objects
+-----------------
+
+The :class:`MimeTypes` class may be useful for applications which may want more
+than one MIME-type database; it provides an interface similar to the one of the
+:mod:`mimetypes` module.
+
+
+.. class:: MimeTypes(filenames=(), strict=True)
+
+ This class represents a MIME-types database. By default, it provides access to
+ the same database as the rest of this module. The initial database is a copy of
+ that provided by the module, and may be extended by loading additional
+ :file:`mime.types`\ -style files into the database using the :meth:`read` or
+ :meth:`readfp` methods. The mapping dictionaries may also be cleared before
+ loading additional data if the default data is not desired.
+
+ The optional *filenames* parameter can be used to cause additional files to be
+ loaded "on top" of the default database.
+
+
+.. attribute:: MimeTypes.suffix_map
+
+ Dictionary mapping suffixes to suffixes. This is used to allow recognition of
+ encoded files for which the encoding and the type are indicated by the same
+ extension. For example, the :file:`.tgz` extension is mapped to :file:`.tar.gz`
+ to allow the encoding and type to be recognized separately. This is initially a
+ copy of the global :data:`suffix_map` defined in the module.
+
+
+.. attribute:: MimeTypes.encodings_map
+
+ Dictionary mapping filename extensions to encoding types. This is initially a
+ copy of the global :data:`encodings_map` defined in the module.
+
+
+.. attribute:: MimeTypes.types_map
+
+ Tuple containing two dictionaries, mapping filename extensions to MIME types:
+ the first dictionary is for the non-standards types and the second one is for
+ the standard types. They are initialized by :data:`common_types` and
+ :data:`types_map`.
+
+
+.. attribute:: MimeTypes.types_map_inv
+
+ Tuple containing two dictionaries, mapping MIME types to a list of filename
+ extensions: the first dictionary is for the non-standards types and the
+ second one is for the standard types. They are initialized by
+ :data:`common_types` and :data:`types_map`.
+
+
+.. method:: MimeTypes.guess_extension(type, strict=True)
+
+ Similar to the :func:`guess_extension` function, using the tables stored as part
+ of the object.
+
+
+.. method:: MimeTypes.guess_type(url, strict=True)
+
+ Similar to the :func:`guess_type` function, using the tables stored as part of
+ the object.
+
+
+.. method:: MimeTypes.guess_all_extensions(type, strict=True)
+
+ Similar to the :func:`guess_all_extensions` function, using the tables stored
+ as part of the object.
+
+
+.. method:: MimeTypes.read(filename, strict=True)
+
+ Load MIME information from a file named *filename*. This uses :meth:`readfp` to
+ parse the file.
+
+ If *strict* is ``True``, information will be added to list of standard types,
+ else to the list of non-standard types.
+
+
+.. method:: MimeTypes.readfp(fp, strict=True)
+
+ Load MIME type information from an open file *fp*. The file must have the format of
+ the standard :file:`mime.types` files.
+
+ If *strict* is ``True``, information will be added to the list of standard
+ types, else to the list of non-standard types.
+
+
+.. method:: MimeTypes.read_windows_registry(strict=True)
+
+ Load MIME type information from the Windows registry. Availability: Windows.
+
+ If *strict* is ``True``, information will be added to the list of standard
+ types, else to the list of non-standard types.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7

+
+
+.. deprecated:: 2.3
+ The :mod:`email` package should be used in preference to the :mod:`MimeWriter`
+ module. This module is present only to maintain backward compatibility.
+
+This module defines the class :class:`MimeWriter`. The :class:`MimeWriter`
+class implements a basic formatter for creating MIME multi-part files. It
+doesn't seek around the output file nor does it use large amounts of buffer
+space. You must write the parts out in the order that they should occur in the
+final file. :class:`MimeWriter` does buffer the headers you add, allowing you
+to rearrange their order.
+
+
+.. class:: MimeWriter(fp)
+
+ Return a new instance of the :class:`MimeWriter` class. The only argument
+ passed, *fp*, is a file object to be used for writing. Note that a
+ :class:`StringIO` object could also be used.
+
+
+.. _mimewriter-objects:
+
+MimeWriter Objects
+------------------
+
+:class:`MimeWriter` instances have the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: MimeWriter.addheader(key, value[, prefix])
+
+ Add a header line to the MIME message. The *key* is the name of the header,
+ where the *value* obviously provides the value of the header. The optional
+ argument *prefix* determines where the header is inserted; ``0`` means append
+ at the end, ``1`` is insert at the start. The default is to append.
+
+
+.. method:: MimeWriter.flushheaders()
+
+ Causes all headers accumulated so far to be written out (and forgotten). This is
+ useful if you don't need a body part at all, e.g. for a subpart of type
+ :mimetype:`message/rfc822` that's (mis)used to store some header-like
+ information.
+
+
+.. method:: MimeWriter.startbody(ctype[, plist[, prefix]])
+
+ Returns a file-like object which can be used to write to the body of the
+ message. The content-type is set to the provided *ctype*, and the optional
+ parameter *plist* provides additional parameters for the content-type
+ declaration. *prefix* functions as in :meth:`addheader` except that the default
+ is to insert at the start.
+
+
+.. method:: MimeWriter.startmultipartbody(subtype[, boundary[, plist[, prefix]]])
+
+ Returns a file-like object which can be used to write to the body of the
+ message. Additionally, this method initializes the multi-part code, where
+ *subtype* provides the multipart subtype, *boundary* may provide a user-defined
+ boundary specification, and *plist* provides optional parameters for the
+ subtype. *prefix* functions as in :meth:`startbody`. Subparts should be created
+ using :meth:`nextpart`.
+
+
+.. method:: MimeWriter.nextpart()
+
+ Returns a new instance of :class:`MimeWriter` which represents an individual
+ part in a multipart message. This may be used to write the part as well as
+ used for creating recursively complex multipart messages. The message must first
+ be initialized with :meth:`startmultipartbody` before using :meth:`nextpart`.
+
+
+.. method:: MimeWriter.lastpart()
+
+ This is used to designate the last part of a multipart message, and should
+ *always* be used when writing multipart messages.

+:mod:`mimify` --- MIME processing of mail messages
+==================================================
+
+.. module:: mimify
+ :synopsis: Mimification and unmimification of mail messages.
+ :deprecated:
+
+
+.. deprecated:: 2.3
+ The :mod:`email` package should be used in preference to the :mod:`mimify`
+ module. This module is present only to maintain backward compatibility.
+
+The :mod:`mimify` module defines two functions to convert mail messages to and
+from MIME format. The mail message can be either a simple message or a
+so-called multipart message. Each part is treated separately. Mimifying (a part
+of) a message entails encoding the message as quoted-printable if it contains
+any characters that cannot be represented using 7-bit ASCII. Unmimifying (a
+part of) a message entails undoing the quoted-printable encoding. Mimify and
+unmimify are especially useful when a message has to be edited before being
+sent. Typical use would be::
+
+ unmimify message
+ edit message
+ mimify message
+ send message
+
+The modules defines the following user-callable functions and user-settable
+variables:
+
+
+.. function:: mimify(infile, outfile)
+
+ Copy the message in *infile* to *outfile*, converting parts to quoted-printable
+ and adding MIME mail headers when necessary. *infile* and *outfile* can be file
+ objects (actually, any object that has a :meth:`readline` method (for *infile*)
+ or a :meth:`write` method (for *outfile*)) or strings naming the files. If
+ *infile* and *outfile* are both strings, they may have the same value.
+
+
+.. function:: unmimify(infile, outfile[, decode_base64])
+
+ Copy the message in *infile* to *outfile*, decoding all quoted-printable parts.
+ *infile* and *outfile* can be file objects (actually, any object that has a
+ :meth:`readline` method (for *infile*) or a :meth:`write` method (for
+ *outfile*)) or strings naming the files. If *infile* and *outfile* are both
+ strings, they may have the same value. If the *decode_base64* argument is
+ provided and tests true, any parts that are coded in the base64 encoding are
+ decoded as well.
+
+
+.. function:: mime_decode_header(line)
+
+ Return a decoded version of the encoded header line in *line*. This only
+ supports the ISO 8859-1 charset (Latin-1).
+
+
+.. function:: mime_encode_header(line)
+
+ Return a MIME-encoded version of the header line in *line*.
+
+
+.. data:: MAXLEN
+
+ By default, a part will be encoded as quoted-printable when it contains any
+ non-ASCII characters (characters with the 8th bit set), or if there are any
+ lines longer than :const:`MAXLEN` characters (default value 200).
+
+
+.. data:: CHARSET
+
+ When not specified in the mail headers, a character set must be filled in. The
+ string used is stored in :const:`CHARSET`, and the default value is ISO-8859-1
+ (also known as Latin1 (latin-one)).
+
+This module can also be used from the command line. Usage is as follows::
+
+ mimify.py -e [-l length] [infile [outfile]]
+ mimify.py -d [-b] [infile [outfile]]
+
+to encode (mimify) and decode (unmimify) respectively. *infile* defaults to
+standard input, *outfile* defaults to standard output. The same file can be
+specified for input and output.
+
+If the **-l** option is given when encoding, if there are any lines longer than
+the specified *length*, the containing part will be encoded.
+
+If the **-b** option is given when decoding, any base64 parts will be decoded as
+well.
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ Module :mod:`quopri`
+ Encode and decode MIME quoted-printable files.

+:mod:`MiniAEFrame` --- Open Scripting Architecture server support
+=================================================================
+
+.. module:: MiniAEFrame
+ :platform: Mac
+ :synopsis: Support to act as an Open Scripting Architecture (OSA) server ("Apple Events").
+
+
+.. index::
+ single: Open Scripting Architecture
+ single: AppleEvents
+ module: FrameWork
+
+The module :mod:`MiniAEFrame` provides a framework for an application that can
+function as an Open Scripting Architecture (OSA) server, i.e. receive and
+process AppleEvents. It can be used in conjunction with :mod:`FrameWork` or
+standalone. As an example, it is used in :program:`PythonCGISlave`.
+
+The :mod:`MiniAEFrame` module defines the following classes:
+
+
+.. class:: AEServer()
+
+ A class that handles AppleEvent dispatch. Your application should subclass this
+ class together with either :class:`MiniApplication` or
+ :class:`FrameWork.Application`. Your :meth:`__init__` method should call the
+ :meth:`__init__` method for both classes.
+
+
+.. class:: MiniApplication()
+
+ A class that is more or less compatible with :class:`FrameWork.Application` but
+ with less functionality. Its event loop supports the apple menu, command-dot and
+ AppleEvents; other events are passed on to the Python interpreter and/or Sioux.
+ Useful if your application wants to use :class:`AEServer` but does not provide
+ its own windows, etc.
+
+
+.. _aeserver-objects:
+
+AEServer Objects
+----------------
+
+
+.. method:: AEServer.installaehandler(classe, type, callback)
+
+ Installs an AppleEvent handler. *classe* and *type* are the four-character OSA
+ Class and Type designators, ``'****'`` wildcards are allowed. When a matching
+ AppleEvent is received the parameters are decoded and your callback is invoked.
+
+
+.. method:: AEServer.callback(_object, **kwargs)
+
+ Your callback is called with the OSA Direct Object as first positional
+ parameter. The other parameters are passed as keyword arguments, with the
+ 4-character designator as name. Three extra keyword parameters are passed:
+ ``_class`` and ``_type`` are the Class and Type designators and ``_attributes``
+ is a dictionary with the AppleEvent attributes.
+
+ The return value of your method is packed with :func:`aetools.packevent` and
+ sent as reply.
+
+Note that there are some serious problems with the current design. AppleEvents
+which have non-identifier 4-character designators for arguments are not
+implementable, and it is not possible to return an error to the originator. This
+will be addressed in a future release.

+:mod:`mmap` --- Memory-mapped file support
+==========================================
+
+.. module:: mmap
+ :synopsis: Interface to memory-mapped files for Unix and Windows.
+
+
+Memory-mapped file objects behave like both strings and like file objects.
+Unlike normal string objects, however, these are mutable. You can use mmap
+objects in most places where strings are expected; for example, you can use
+the :mod:`re` module to search through a memory-mapped file. Since they're
+mutable, you can change a single character by doing ``obj[index] = 'a'``, or
+change a substring by assigning to a slice: ``obj[i1:i2] = '...'``. You can
+also read and write data starting at the current file position, and
+:meth:`seek` through the file to different positions.
+
+A memory-mapped file is created by the :class:`mmap` constructor, which is
+different on Unix and on Windows. In either case you must provide a file
+descriptor for a file opened for update. If you wish to map an existing Python
+file object, use its :meth:`fileno` method to obtain the correct value for the
+*fileno* parameter. Otherwise, you can open the file using the
+:func:`os.open` function, which returns a file descriptor directly (the file
+still needs to be closed when done).
+
+.. note::
+ If you want to create a memory-mapping for a writable, buffered file, you
+ should :func:`~io.IOBase.flush` the file first. This is necessary to ensure
+ that local modifications to the buffers are actually available to the
+ mapping.
+
+For both the Unix and Windows versions of the constructor, *access* may be
+specified as an optional keyword parameter. *access* accepts one of three
+values: :const:`ACCESS_READ`, :const:`ACCESS_WRITE`, or :const:`ACCESS_COPY`
+to specify read-only, write-through or copy-on-write memory respectively.
+*access* can be used on both Unix and Windows. If *access* is not specified,
+Windows mmap returns a write-through mapping. The initial memory values for
+all three access types are taken from the specified file. Assignment to an
+:const:`ACCESS_READ` memory map raises a :exc:`TypeError` exception.
+Assignment to an :const:`ACCESS_WRITE` memory map affects both memory and the
+underlying file. Assignment to an :const:`ACCESS_COPY` memory map affects
+memory but does not update the underlying file.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ To map anonymous memory, -1 should be passed as the fileno along with the
+ length.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ mmap.mmap has formerly been a factory function creating mmap objects. Now
+ mmap.mmap is the class itself.
+
+.. class:: mmap(fileno, length[, tagname[, access[, offset]]])
+
+ **(Windows version)** Maps *length* bytes from the file specified by the
+ file handle *fileno*, and creates a mmap object. If *length* is larger
+ than the current size of the file, the file is extended to contain *length*
+ bytes. If *length* is ``0``, the maximum length of the map is the current
+ size of the file, except that if the file is empty Windows raises an
+ exception (you cannot create an empty mapping on Windows).
+
+ *tagname*, if specified and not ``None``, is a string giving a tag name for
+ the mapping. Windows allows you to have many different mappings against
+ the same file. If you specify the name of an existing tag, that tag is
+ opened, otherwise a new tag of this name is created. If this parameter is
+ omitted or ``None``, the mapping is created without a name. Avoiding the
+ use of the tag parameter will assist in keeping your code portable between
+ Unix and Windows.
+
+ *offset* may be specified as a non-negative integer offset. mmap references
+ will be relative to the offset from the beginning of the file. *offset*
+ defaults to 0. *offset* must be a multiple of the ALLOCATIONGRANULARITY.
+
+
+.. class:: mmap(fileno, length[, flags[, prot[, access[, offset]]]])
+ :noindex:
+
+ **(Unix version)** Maps *length* bytes from the file specified by the file
+ descriptor *fileno*, and returns a mmap object. If *length* is ``0``, the
+ maximum length of the map will be the current size of the file when
+ :class:`mmap` is called.
+
+ *flags* specifies the nature of the mapping. :const:`MAP_PRIVATE` creates a
+ private copy-on-write mapping, so changes to the contents of the mmap
+ object will be private to this process, and :const:`MAP_SHARED` creates a
+ mapping that's shared with all other processes mapping the same areas of
+ the file. The default value is :const:`MAP_SHARED`.
+
+ *prot*, if specified, gives the desired memory protection; the two most
+ useful values are :const:`PROT_READ` and :const:`PROT_WRITE`, to specify
+ that the pages may be read or written. *prot* defaults to
+ :const:`PROT_READ \| PROT_WRITE`.
+
+ *access* may be specified in lieu of *flags* and *prot* as an optional
+ keyword parameter. It is an error to specify both *flags*, *prot* and
+ *access*. See the description of *access* above for information on how to
+ use this parameter.
+
+ *offset* may be specified as a non-negative integer offset. mmap references
+ will be relative to the offset from the beginning of the file. *offset*
+ defaults to 0. *offset* must be a multiple of the PAGESIZE or
+ ALLOCATIONGRANULARITY.
+
+ To ensure validity of the created memory mapping the file specified
+ by the descriptor *fileno* is internally automatically synchronized
+ with physical backing store on Mac OS X and OpenVMS.
+
+ This example shows a simple way of using :class:`mmap`::
+
+ import mmap
+
+ # write a simple example file
+ with open("hello.txt", "wb") as f:
+ f.write("Hello Python!\n")
+
+ with open("hello.txt", "r+b") as f:
+ # memory-map the file, size 0 means whole file
+ mm = mmap.mmap(f.fileno(), 0)
+ # read content via standard file methods
+ print mm.readline() # prints "Hello Python!"
+ # read content via slice notation
+ print mm[:5] # prints "Hello"
+ # update content using slice notation;
+ # note that new content must have same size
+ mm[6:] = " world!\n"
+ # ... and read again using standard file methods
+ mm.seek(0)
+ print mm.readline() # prints "Hello world!"
+ # close the map
+ mm.close()
+
+
+ The next example demonstrates how to create an anonymous map and exchange
+ data between the parent and child processes::
+
+ import mmap
+ import os
+
+ mm = mmap.mmap(-1, 13)
+ mm.write("Hello world!")
+
+ pid = os.fork()
+
+ if pid == 0: # In a child process
+ mm.seek(0)
+ print mm.readline()
+
+ mm.close()
+
+
+ Memory-mapped file objects support the following methods:
+
+
+ .. method:: close()
+
+ Close the file. Subsequent calls to other methods of the object will
+ result in an exception being raised.
+
+
+ .. method:: find(string[, start[, end]])
+
+ Returns the lowest index in the object where the substring *string* is
+ found, such that *string* is contained in the range [*start*, *end*].
+ Optional arguments *start* and *end* are interpreted as in slice notation.
+ Returns ``-1`` on failure.
+
+
+ .. method:: flush([offset, size])
+
+ Flushes changes made to the in-memory copy of a file back to disk. Without
+ use of this call there is no guarantee that changes are written back before
+ the object is destroyed. If *offset* and *size* are specified, only
+ changes to the given range of bytes will be flushed to disk; otherwise, the
+ whole extent of the mapping is flushed.
+
+ **(Windows version)** A nonzero value returned indicates success; zero
+ indicates failure.
+
+ **(Unix version)** A zero value is returned to indicate success. An
+ exception is raised when the call failed.
+
+
+ .. method:: move(dest, src, count)
+
+ Copy the *count* bytes starting at offset *src* to the destination index
+ *dest*. If the mmap was created with :const:`ACCESS_READ`, then calls to
+ move will raise a :exc:`TypeError` exception.
+
+
+ .. method:: read(num)
+
+ Return a string containing up to *num* bytes starting from the current
+ file position; the file position is updated to point after the bytes that
+ were returned.
+
+
+ .. method:: read_byte()
+
+ Returns a string of length 1 containing the character at the current file
+ position, and advances the file position by 1.
+
+
+ .. method:: readline()
+
+ Returns a single line, starting at the current file position and up to the
+ next newline.
+
+
+ .. method:: resize(newsize)
+
+ Resizes the map and the underlying file, if any. If the mmap was created
+ with :const:`ACCESS_READ` or :const:`ACCESS_COPY`, resizing the map will
+ raise a :exc:`TypeError` exception.
+
+
+ .. method:: rfind(string[, start[, end]])
+
+ Returns the highest index in the object where the substring *string* is
+ found, such that *string* is contained in the range [*start*, *end*].
+ Optional arguments *start* and *end* are interpreted as in slice notation.
+ Returns ``-1`` on failure.
+
+
+ .. method:: seek(pos[, whence])
+
+ Set the file's current position. *whence* argument is optional and
+ defaults to ``os.SEEK_SET`` or ``0`` (absolute file positioning); other
+ values are ``os.SEEK_CUR`` or ``1`` (seek relative to the current
+ position) and ``os.SEEK_END`` or ``2`` (seek relative to the file's end).
+
+
+ .. method:: size()
+
+ Return the length of the file, which can be larger than the size of the
+ memory-mapped area.
+
+
+ .. method:: tell()
+
+ Returns the current position of the file pointer.
+
+
+ .. method:: write(string)
+
+ Write the bytes in *string* into memory at the current position of the
+ file pointer; the file position is updated to point after the bytes that
+ were written. If the mmap was created with :const:`ACCESS_READ`, then
+ writing to it will raise a :exc:`TypeError` exception.
+
+
+ .. method:: write_byte(byte)
+
+ Write the single-character string *byte* into memory at the current
+ position of the file pointer; the file position is advanced by ``1``. If
+ the mmap was created with :const:`ACCESS_READ`, then writing to it will
+ raise a :exc:`TypeError` exception.

+:mod:`msilib` --- Read and write Microsoft Installer files
+==========================================================
+
+.. module:: msilib
+ :platform: Windows
+ :synopsis: Creation of Microsoft Installer files, and CAB files.
+.. moduleauthor:: Martin v. Löwis <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Martin v. Löwis <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. index:: single: msi
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+The :mod:`msilib` supports the creation of Microsoft Installer (``.msi``) files.
+Because these files often contain an embedded "cabinet" file (``.cab``), it also
+exposes an API to create CAB files. Support for reading ``.cab`` files is
+currently not implemented; read support for the ``.msi`` database is possible.
+
+This package aims to provide complete access to all tables in an ``.msi`` file,
+therefore, it is a fairly low-level API. Two primary applications of this
+package are the :mod:`distutils` command ``bdist_msi``, and the creation of
+Python installer package itself (although that currently uses a different
+version of ``msilib``).
+
+The package contents can be roughly split into four parts: low-level CAB
+routines, low-level MSI routines, higher-level MSI routines, and standard table
+structures.
+
+
+.. function:: FCICreate(cabname, files)
+
+ Create a new CAB file named *cabname*. *files* must be a list of tuples, each
+ containing the name of the file on disk, and the name of the file inside the CAB
+ file.
+
+ The files are added to the CAB file in the order they appear in the list. All
+ files are added into a single CAB file, using the MSZIP compression algorithm.
+
+ Callbacks to Python for the various steps of MSI creation are currently not
+ exposed.
+
+
+.. function:: UuidCreate()
+
+ Return the string representation of a new unique identifier. This wraps the
+ Windows API functions :c:func:`UuidCreate` and :c:func:`UuidToString`.
+
+
+.. function:: OpenDatabase(path, persist)
+
+ Return a new database object by calling MsiOpenDatabase. *path* is the file
+ name of the MSI file; *persist* can be one of the constants
+ ``MSIDBOPEN_CREATEDIRECT``, ``MSIDBOPEN_CREATE``, ``MSIDBOPEN_DIRECT``,
+ ``MSIDBOPEN_READONLY``, or ``MSIDBOPEN_TRANSACT``, and may include the flag
+ ``MSIDBOPEN_PATCHFILE``. See the Microsoft documentation for the meaning of
+ these flags; depending on the flags, an existing database is opened, or a new
+ one created.
+
+
+.. function:: CreateRecord(count)
+
+ Return a new record object by calling :c:func:`MSICreateRecord`. *count* is the
+ number of fields of the record.
+
+
+.. function:: init_database(name, schema, ProductName, ProductCode, ProductVersion, Manufacturer)
+
+ Create and return a new database *name*, initialize it with *schema*, and set
+ the properties *ProductName*, *ProductCode*, *ProductVersion*, and
+ *Manufacturer*.
+
+ *schema* must be a module object containing ``tables`` and
+ ``_Validation_records`` attributes; typically, :mod:`msilib.schema` should be
+ used.
+
+ The database will contain just the schema and the validation records when this
+ function returns.
+
+
+.. function:: add_data(database, table, records)
+
+ Add all *records* to the table named *table* in *database*.
+
+ The *table* argument must be one of the predefined tables in the MSI schema,
+ e.g. ``'Feature'``, ``'File'``, ``'Component'``, ``'Dialog'``, ``'Control'``,
+ etc.

+
+
+.. class:: Directory(database, cab, basedir, physical, logical, default, [componentflags])
+
+ Create a new directory in the Directory table. There is a current component at
+ each point in time for the directory, which is either explicitly created through
+ :meth:`start_component`, or implicitly when files are added for the first time.
+ Files are added into the current component, and into the cab file. To create a
+ directory, a base directory object needs to be specified (can be ``None``), the
+ path to the physical directory, and a logical directory name. *default*
+ specifies the DefaultDir slot in the directory table. *componentflags* specifies
+ the default flags that new components get.
+
+
+ .. method:: start_component([component[, feature[, flags[, keyfile[, uuid]]]]])
+
+ Add an entry to the Component table, and make this component the current
+ component for this directory. If no component name is given, the directory
+ name is used. If no *feature* is given, the current feature is used. If no
+ *flags* are given, the directory's default flags are used. If no *keyfile*
+ is given, the KeyPath is left null in the Component table.
+
+
+ .. method:: add_file(file[, src[, version[, language]]])
+
+ Add a file to the current component of the directory, starting a new one
+ if there is no current component. By default, the file name in the source
+ and the file table will be identical. If the *src* file is specified, it
+ is interpreted relative to the current directory. Optionally, a *version*
+ and a *language* can be specified for the entry in the File table.

+=========================================================
+
+.. module:: msvcrt
+ :platform: Windows
+ :synopsis: Miscellaneous useful routines from the MS VC++ runtime.
+.. sectionauthor:: Fred L. Drake, Jr. <[email protected]>
+
+
+These functions provide access to some useful capabilities on Windows platforms.
+Some higher-level modules use these functions to build the Windows
+implementations of their services. For example, the :mod:`getpass` module uses
+this in the implementation of the :func:`getpass` function.
+
+Further documentation on these functions can be found in the Platform API
+documentation.
+
+The module implements both the normal and wide char variants of the console I/O
+api. The normal API deals only with ASCII characters and is of limited use
+for internationalized applications. The wide char API should be used where
+ever possible
+
+.. _msvcrt-files:
+
+File Operations
+---------------
+
+
+.. function:: locking(fd, mode, nbytes)
+
+ Lock part of a file based on file descriptor *fd* from the C runtime. Raises
+ :exc:`IOError` on failure. The locked region of the file extends from the
+ current file position for *nbytes* bytes, and may continue beyond the end of the
+ file. *mode* must be one of the :const:`LK_\*` constants listed below. Multiple
+ regions in a file may be locked at the same time, but may not overlap. Adjacent
+ regions are not merged; they must be unlocked individually.
+
+
+.. data:: LK_LOCK
+ LK_RLCK
+
+ Locks the specified bytes. If the bytes cannot be locked, the program
+ immediately tries again after 1 second. If, after 10 attempts, the bytes cannot
+ be locked, :exc:`IOError` is raised.
+
+
+.. data:: LK_NBLCK
+ LK_NBRLCK
+
+ Locks the specified bytes. If the bytes cannot be locked, :exc:`IOError` is
+ raised.
+
+
+.. data:: LK_UNLCK
+
+ Unlocks the specified bytes, which must have been previously locked.
+
+
+.. function:: setmode(fd, flags)
+
+ Set the line-end translation mode for the file descriptor *fd*. To set it to
+ text mode, *flags* should be :const:`os.O_TEXT`; for binary, it should be
+ :const:`os.O_BINARY`.
+
+
+.. function:: open_osfhandle(handle, flags)
+
+ Create a C runtime file descriptor from the file handle *handle*. The *flags*
+ parameter should be a bitwise OR of :const:`os.O_APPEND`, :const:`os.O_RDONLY`,
+ and :const:`os.O_TEXT`. The returned file descriptor may be used as a parameter
+ to :func:`os.fdopen` to create a file object.

+:mod:`multifile` --- Support for files containing distinct parts
+================================================================
+
+.. module:: multifile
+ :synopsis: Support for reading files which contain distinct parts, such as some MIME data.
+ :deprecated:
+.. sectionauthor:: Eric S. Raymond <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. deprecated:: 2.5
+ The :mod:`email` package should be used in preference to the :mod:`multifile`
+ module. This module is present only to maintain backward compatibility.
+
+The :class:`MultiFile` object enables you to treat sections of a text file as
+file-like input objects, with ``''`` being returned by :meth:`readline` when a
+given delimiter pattern is encountered. The defaults of this class are designed
+to make it useful for parsing MIME multipart messages, but by subclassing it and
+overriding methods it can be easily adapted for more general use.
+
+
+.. class:: MultiFile(fp[, seekable])
+
+ Create a multi-file. You must instantiate this class with an input object
+ argument for the :class:`MultiFile` instance to get lines from, such as a file
+ object returned by :func:`open`.
+
+ :class:`MultiFile` only ever looks at the input object's :meth:`readline`,
+ :meth:`seek` and :meth:`tell` methods, and the latter two are only needed if you
+ want random access to the individual MIME parts. To use :class:`MultiFile` on a
+ non-seekable stream object, set the optional *seekable* argument to false; this
+ will prevent using the input object's :meth:`seek` and :meth:`tell` methods.
+
+It will be useful to know that in :class:`MultiFile`'s view of the world, text
+is composed of three kinds of lines: data, section-dividers, and end-markers.
+MultiFile is designed to support parsing of messages that may have multiple
+nested message parts, each with its own pattern for section-divider and
+end-marker lines.
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ Module :mod:`email`
+ Comprehensive email handling package; supersedes the :mod:`multifile` module.
+
+
+.. _multifile-objects:
+
+MultiFile Objects
+-----------------
+
+A :class:`MultiFile` instance has the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: MultiFile.readline(str)
+
+ Read a line. If the line is data (not a section-divider or end-marker or real
+ EOF) return it. If the line matches the most-recently-stacked boundary, return
+ ``''`` and set ``self.last`` to 1 or 0 according as the match is or is not an
+ end-marker. If the line matches any other stacked boundary, raise an error. On
+ encountering end-of-file on the underlying stream object, the method raises
+ :exc:`Error` unless all boundaries have been popped.
+
+
+.. method:: MultiFile.readlines(str)
+
+ Return all lines remaining in this part as a list of strings.
+
+
+.. method:: MultiFile.read()
+
+ Read all lines, up to the next section. Return them as a single (multiline)
+ string. Note that this doesn't take a size argument!
+
+
+.. method:: MultiFile.seek(pos[, whence])
+
+ Seek. Seek indices are relative to the start of the current section. The *pos*
+ and *whence* arguments are interpreted as for a file seek.
+
+
+.. method:: MultiFile.tell()
+
+ Return the file position relative to the start of the current section.
+
+
+.. method:: MultiFile.next()
+
+ Skip lines to the next section (that is, read lines until a section-divider or
+ end-marker has been consumed). Return true if there is such a section, false if
+ an end-marker is seen. Re-enable the most-recently-pushed boundary.
+
+
+.. method:: MultiFile.is_data(str)
+
+ Return true if *str* is data and false if it might be a section boundary. As
+ written, it tests for a prefix other than ``'-``\ ``-'`` at start of line (which
+ all MIME boundaries have) but it is declared so it can be overridden in derived
+ classes.
+
+ Note that this test is used intended as a fast guard for the real boundary
+ tests; if it always returns false it will merely slow processing, not cause it
+ to fail.
+
+
+.. method:: MultiFile.push(str)
+
+ Push a boundary string. When a decorated version of this boundary is found as
+ an input line, it will be interpreted as a section-divider or end-marker
+ (depending on the decoration, see :rfc:`2045`). All subsequent reads will
+ return the empty string to indicate end-of-file, until a call to :meth:`pop`
+ removes the boundary a or :meth:`.next` call reenables it.
+
+ It is possible to push more than one boundary. Encountering the
+ most-recently-pushed boundary will return EOF; encountering any other
+ boundary will raise an error.
+
+
+.. method:: MultiFile.pop()
+
+ Pop a section boundary. This boundary will no longer be interpreted as EOF.
+
+
+.. method:: MultiFile.section_divider(str)
+
+ Turn a boundary into a section-divider line. By default, this method
+ prepends ``'--'`` (which MIME section boundaries have) but it is declared so
+ it can be overridden in derived classes. This method need not append LF or
+ CR-LF, as comparison with the result ignores trailing whitespace.
+
+
+.. method:: MultiFile.end_marker(str)
+
+ Turn a boundary string into an end-marker line. By default, this method
+ prepends ``'--'`` and appends ``'--'`` (like a MIME-multipart end-of-message
+ marker) but it is declared so it can be overridden in derived classes. This
+ method need not append LF or CR-LF, as comparison with the result ignores
+ trailing whitespace.
+
+Finally, :class:`MultiFile` instances have two public instance variables:
+
+
+.. attribute:: MultiFile.level
+
+ Nesting depth of the current part.
+
+
+.. attribute:: MultiFile.last
+
+ True if the last end-of-file was for an end-of-message marker.

+:mod:`multiprocessing` --- Process-based "threading" interface
+==============================================================
+
+.. module:: multiprocessing
+ :synopsis: Process-based "threading" interface.
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+Introduction
+----------------------
+
+:mod:`multiprocessing` is a package that supports spawning processes using an
+API similar to the :mod:`threading` module. The :mod:`multiprocessing` package
+offers both local and remote concurrency, effectively side-stepping the
+:term:`Global Interpreter Lock` by using subprocesses instead of threads. Due
+to this, the :mod:`multiprocessing` module allows the programmer to fully
+leverage multiple processors on a given machine. It runs on both Unix and
+Windows.
+
+.. warning::
+
+ Some of this package's functionality requires a functioning shared semaphore
+ implementation on the host operating system. Without one, the
+ :mod:`multiprocessing.synchronize` module will be disabled, and attempts to
+ import it will result in an :exc:`ImportError`. See
+ :issue:`3770` for additional information.
+
+.. note::
+
+ Functionality within this package requires that the ``__main__`` module be
+ importable by the children. This is covered in :ref:`multiprocessing-programming`
+ however it is worth pointing out here. This means that some examples, such
+ as the :class:`multiprocessing.Pool` examples will not work in the
+ interactive interpreter. For example::
+
+ >>> from multiprocessing import Pool
+ >>> p = Pool(5)
+ >>> def f(x):
+ ... return x*x
+ ...
+ >>> p.map(f, [1,2,3])
+ Process PoolWorker-1:
+ Process PoolWorker-2:
+ Process PoolWorker-3:
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'f'
+ AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'f'
+ AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'f'
+
+ (If you try this it will actually output three full tracebacks
+ interleaved in a semi-random fashion, and then you may have to
+ stop the master process somehow.)
+
+
+The :class:`Process` class
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+In :mod:`multiprocessing`, processes are spawned by creating a :class:`Process`
+object and then calling its :meth:`~Process.start` method. :class:`Process`
+follows the API of :class:`threading.Thread`. A trivial example of a
+multiprocess program is ::
+
+ from multiprocessing import Process
+
+ def f(name):
+ print 'hello', name
+
+ if __name__ == '__main__':
+ p = Process(target=f, args=('bob',))
+ p.start()
+ p.join()
+
+To show the individual process IDs involved, here is an expanded example::
+
+ from multiprocessing import Process
+ import os
+
+ def info(title):
+ print title
+ print 'module name:', __name__
+ if hasattr(os, 'getppid'): # only available on Unix
+ print 'parent process:', os.getppid()
+ print 'process id:', os.getpid()
+
+ def f(name):
+ info('function f')
+ print 'hello', name
+
+ if __name__ == '__main__':
+ info('main line')
+ p = Process(target=f, args=('bob',))
+ p.start()
+ p.join()
+
+For an explanation of why (on Windows) the ``if __name__ == '__main__'`` part is
+necessary, see :ref:`multiprocessing-programming`.
+
+
+
+Exchanging objects between processes
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+:mod:`multiprocessing` supports two types of communication channel between
+processes:
+
+**Queues**
+
+ The :class:`~multiprocessing.Queue` class is a near clone of :class:`Queue.Queue`. For
+ example::
+
+ from multiprocessing import Process, Queue
+
+ def f(q):
+ q.put([42, None, 'hello'])
+
+ if __name__ == '__main__':
+ q = Queue()
+ p = Process(target=f, args=(q,))
+ p.start()
+ print q.get() # prints "[42, None, 'hello']"
+ p.join()
+
+ Queues are thread and process safe.
+
+**Pipes**
+
+ The :func:`Pipe` function returns a pair of connection objects connected by a
+ pipe which by default is duplex (two-way). For example::
+
+ from multiprocessing import Process, Pipe
+
+ def f(conn):
+ conn.send([42, None, 'hello'])
+ conn.close()
+
+ if __name__ == '__main__':
+ parent_conn, child_conn = Pipe()
+ p = Process(target=f, args=(child_conn,))
+ p.start()
+ print parent_conn.recv() # prints "[42, None, 'hello']"
+ p.join()
+
+ The two connection objects returned by :func:`Pipe` represent the two ends of
+ the pipe. Each connection object has :meth:`~Connection.send` and
+ :meth:`~Connection.recv` methods (among others). Note that data in a pipe
+ may become corrupted if two processes (or threads) try to read from or write
+ to the *same* end of the pipe at the same time. Of course there is no risk
+ of corruption from processes using different ends of the pipe at the same
+ time.
+
+
+Synchronization between processes
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+:mod:`multiprocessing` contains equivalents of all the synchronization
+primitives from :mod:`threading`. For instance one can use a lock to ensure
+that only one process prints to standard output at a time::
+
+ from multiprocessing import Process, Lock
+
+ def f(l, i):
+ l.acquire()
+ print 'hello world', i
+ l.release()
+
+ if __name__ == '__main__':
+ lock = Lock()
+
+ for num in range(10):
+ Process(target=f, args=(lock, num)).start()
+
+Without using the lock output from the different processes is liable to get all
+mixed up.
+
+
+Sharing state between processes
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+As mentioned above, when doing concurrent programming it is usually best to
+avoid using shared state as far as possible. This is particularly true when
+using multiple processes.
+
+However, if you really do need to use some shared data then
+:mod:`multiprocessing` provides a couple of ways of doing so.
+
+**Shared memory**
+
+ Data can be stored in a shared memory map using :class:`Value` or
+ :class:`Array`. For example, the following code ::
+
+ from multiprocessing import Process, Value, Array
+
+ def f(n, a):
+ n.value = 3.1415927
+ for i in range(len(a)):
+ a[i] = -a[i]
+
+ if __name__ == '__main__':
+ num = Value('d', 0.0)
+ arr = Array('i', range(10))
+
+ p = Process(target=f, args=(num, arr))
+ p.start()
+ p.join()
+
+ print num.value
+ print arr[:]
+
+ will print ::
+
+ 3.1415927
+ [0, -1, -2, -3, -4, -5, -6, -7, -8, -9]
+
+ The ``'d'`` and ``'i'`` arguments used when creating ``num`` and ``arr`` are
+ typecodes of the kind used by the :mod:`array` module: ``'d'`` indicates a
+ double precision float and ``'i'`` indicates a signed integer. These shared
+ objects will be process and thread-safe.
+
+ For more flexibility in using shared memory one can use the
+ :mod:`multiprocessing.sharedctypes` module which supports the creation of
+ arbitrary ctypes objects allocated from shared memory.
+
+**Server process**
+
+ A manager object returned by :func:`Manager` controls a server process which
+ holds Python objects and allows other processes to manipulate them using
+ proxies.
+
+ A manager returned by :func:`Manager` will support types :class:`list`,
+ :class:`dict`, :class:`Namespace`, :class:`Lock`, :class:`RLock`,
+ :class:`Semaphore`, :class:`BoundedSemaphore`, :class:`Condition`,
+ :class:`Event`, :class:`~multiprocessing.Queue`, :class:`Value` and :class:`Array`. For
+ example, ::
+
+ from multiprocessing import Process, Manager
+
+ def f(d, l):
+ d[1] = '1'
+ d['2'] = 2
+ d[0.25] = None
+ l.reverse()
+
+ if __name__ == '__main__':
+ manager = Manager()
+
+ d = manager.dict()
+ l = manager.list(range(10))
+
+ p = Process(target=f, args=(d, l))
+ p.start()
+ p.join()
+
+ print d
+ print l
+
+ will print ::
+
+ {0.25: None, 1: '1', '2': 2}
+ [9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0]
+
+ Server process managers are more flexible than using shared memory objects
+ because they can be made to support arbitrary object types. Also, a single
+ manager can be shared by processes on different computers over a network.
+ They are, however, slower than using shared memory.
+
+
+Using a pool of workers
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The :class:`~multiprocessing.pool.Pool` class represents a pool of worker
+processes. It has methods which allows tasks to be offloaded to the worker
+processes in a few different ways.
+
+For example::
+
+ from multiprocessing import Pool
+
+ def f(x):
+ return x*x
+
+ if __name__ == '__main__':
+ pool = Pool(processes=4) # start 4 worker processes
+ result = pool.apply_async(f, [10]) # evaluate "f(10)" asynchronously
+ print result.get(timeout=1) # prints "100" unless your computer is *very* slow
+ print pool.map(f, range(10)) # prints "[0, 1, 4,..., 81]"
+
+
+Reference
+---------
+
+The :mod:`multiprocessing` package mostly replicates the API of the
+:mod:`threading` module.
+
+
+:class:`Process` and exceptions
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+.. class:: Process(group=None, target=None, name=None, args=(), kwargs={})
+
+ Process objects represent activity that is run in a separate process. The
+ :class:`Process` class has equivalents of all the methods of
+ :class:`threading.Thread`.
+
+ The constructor should always be called with keyword arguments. *group*
+ should always be ``None``; it exists solely for compatibility with
+ :class:`threading.Thread`. *target* is the callable object to be invoked by
+ the :meth:`run()` method. It defaults to ``None``, meaning nothing is
+ called. *name* is the process name. By default, a unique name is constructed
+ of the form 'Process-N\ :sub:`1`:N\ :sub:`2`:...:N\ :sub:`k`' where N\
+ :sub:`1`,N\ :sub:`2`,...,N\ :sub:`k` is a sequence of integers whose length
+ is determined by the *generation* of the process. *args* is the argument
+ tuple for the target invocation. *kwargs* is a dictionary of keyword
+ arguments for the target invocation. By default, no arguments are passed to
+ *target*.
+
+ If a subclass overrides the constructor, it must make sure it invokes the
+ base class constructor (:meth:`Process.__init__`) before doing anything else
+ to the process.
+
+ .. method:: run()
+
+ Method representing the process's activity.
+
+ You may override this method in a subclass. The standard :meth:`run`
+ method invokes the callable object passed to the object's constructor as
+ the target argument, if any, with sequential and keyword arguments taken
+ from the *args* and *kwargs* arguments, respectively.
+
+ .. method:: start()
+
+ Start the process's activity.
+
+ This must be called at most once per process object. It arranges for the
+ object's :meth:`run` method to be invoked in a separate process.
+
+ .. method:: join([timeout])
+
+ Block the calling thread until the process whose :meth:`join` method is
+ called terminates or until the optional timeout occurs.
+
+ If *timeout* is ``None`` then there is no timeout.
+
+ A process can be joined many times.
+
+ A process cannot join itself because this would cause a deadlock. It is
+ an error to attempt to join a process before it has been started.
+
+ .. attribute:: name
+
+ The process's name.
+
+ The name is a string used for identification purposes only. It has no
+ semantics. Multiple processes may be given the same name. The initial
+ name is set by the constructor.
+
+ .. method:: is_alive
+
+ Return whether the process is alive.
+
+ Roughly, a process object is alive from the moment the :meth:`start`
+ method returns until the child process terminates.
+
+ .. attribute:: daemon
+
+ The process's daemon flag, a Boolean value. This must be set before
+ :meth:`start` is called.
+
+ The initial value is inherited from the creating process.
+
+ When a process exits, it attempts to terminate all of its daemonic child
+ processes.
+
+ Note that a daemonic process is not allowed to create child processes.
+ Otherwise a daemonic process would leave its children orphaned if it gets
+ terminated when its parent process exits. Additionally, these are **not**
+ Unix daemons or services, they are normal processes that will be
+ terminated (and not joined) if non-daemonic processes have exited.
+
+ In addition to the :class:`Threading.Thread` API, :class:`Process` objects
+ also support the following attributes and methods:
+
+ .. attribute:: pid
+
+ Return the process ID. Before the process is spawned, this will be
+ ``None``.
+
+ .. attribute:: exitcode
+
+ The child's exit code. This will be ``None`` if the process has not yet
+ terminated. A negative value *-N* indicates that the child was terminated
+ by signal *N*.
+
+ .. attribute:: authkey
+
+ The process's authentication key (a byte string).
+
+ When :mod:`multiprocessing` is initialized the main process is assigned a
+ random string using :func:`os.random`.
+
+ When a :class:`Process` object is created, it will inherit the
+ authentication key of its parent process, although this may be changed by
+ setting :attr:`authkey` to another byte string.
+
+ See :ref:`multiprocessing-auth-keys`.
+
+ .. method:: terminate()
+
+ Terminate the process. On Unix this is done using the ``SIGTERM`` signal;
+ on Windows :c:func:`TerminateProcess` is used. Note that exit handlers and
+ finally clauses, etc., will not be executed.
+
+ Note that descendant processes of the process will *not* be terminated --
+ they will simply become orphaned.
+
+ .. warning::
+
+ If this method is used when the associated process is using a pipe or
+ queue then the pipe or queue is liable to become corrupted and may
+ become unusable by other process. Similarly, if the process has
+ acquired a lock or semaphore etc. then terminating it is liable to
+ cause other processes to deadlock.
+
+ Note that the :meth:`start`, :meth:`join`, :meth:`is_alive` and
+ :attr:`exit_code` methods should only be called by the process that created
+ the process object.
+
+ Example usage of some of the methods of :class:`Process`:
+
+ .. doctest::
+
+ >>> import multiprocessing, time, signal
+ >>> p = multiprocessing.Process(target=time.sleep, args=(1000,))
+ >>> print p, p.is_alive()
+ <Process(Process-1, initial)> False
+ >>> p.start()
+ >>> print p, p.is_alive()
+ <Process(Process-1, started)> True
+ >>> p.terminate()
+ >>> time.sleep(0.1)
+ >>> print p, p.is_alive()
+ <Process(Process-1, stopped[SIGTERM])> False
+ >>> p.exitcode == -signal.SIGTERM
+ True
+
+
+.. exception:: BufferTooShort
+
+ Exception raised by :meth:`Connection.recv_bytes_into()` when the supplied
+ buffer object is too small for the message read.
+
+ If ``e`` is an instance of :exc:`BufferTooShort` then ``e.args[0]`` will give
+ the message as a byte string.
+
+
+Pipes and Queues
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+When using multiple processes, one generally uses message passing for
+communication between processes and avoids having to use any synchronization
+primitives like locks.
+
+For passing messages one can use :func:`Pipe` (for a connection between two
+processes) or a queue (which allows multiple producers and consumers).
+
+The :class:`~multiprocessing.Queue`, :class:`multiprocessing.queues.SimpleQueue` and :class:`JoinableQueue` types are multi-producer,
+multi-consumer FIFO queues modelled on the :class:`Queue.Queue` class in the
+standard library. They differ in that :class:`~multiprocessing.Queue` lacks the
+:meth:`~Queue.Queue.task_done` and :meth:`~Queue.Queue.join` methods introduced
+into Python 2.5's :class:`Queue.Queue` class.
+
+If you use :class:`JoinableQueue` then you **must** call
+:meth:`JoinableQueue.task_done` for each task removed from the queue or else the
+semaphore used to count the number of unfinished tasks may eventually overflow,
+raising an exception.
+
+Note that one can also create a shared queue by using a manager object -- see
+:ref:`multiprocessing-managers`.
+
+.. note::
+
+ :mod:`multiprocessing` uses the usual :exc:`Queue.Empty` and
+ :exc:`Queue.Full` exceptions to signal a timeout. They are not available in
+ the :mod:`multiprocessing` namespace so you need to import them from
+ :mod:`Queue`.
+
+
+.. warning::
+
+ If a process is killed using :meth:`Process.terminate` or :func:`os.kill`
+ while it is trying to use a :class:`~multiprocessing.Queue`, then the data in the queue is
+ likely to become corrupted. This may cause any other process to get an
+ exception when it tries to use the queue later on.
+
+.. warning::
+
+ As mentioned above, if a child process has put items on a queue (and it has
+ not used :meth:`JoinableQueue.cancel_join_thread`), then that process will
+ not terminate until all buffered items have been flushed to the pipe.
+
+ This means that if you try joining that process you may get a deadlock unless
+ you are sure that all items which have been put on the queue have been
+ consumed. Similarly, if the child process is non-daemonic then the parent
+ process may hang on exit when it tries to join all its non-daemonic children.
+
+ Note that a queue created using a manager does not have this issue. See
+ :ref:`multiprocessing-programming`.
+
+For an example of the usage of queues for interprocess communication see
+:ref:`multiprocessing-examples`.
+
+
+.. function:: Pipe([duplex])
+
+ Returns a pair ``(conn1, conn2)`` of :class:`Connection` objects representing
+ the ends of a pipe.
+
+ If *duplex* is ``True`` (the default) then the pipe is bidirectional. If
+ *duplex* is ``False`` then the pipe is unidirectional: ``conn1`` can only be
+ used for receiving messages and ``conn2`` can only be used for sending
+ messages.
+
+
+.. class:: Queue([maxsize])
+
+ Returns a process shared queue implemented using a pipe and a few
+ locks/semaphores. When a process first puts an item on the queue a feeder
+ thread is started which transfers objects from a buffer into the pipe.
+
+ The usual :exc:`Queue.Empty` and :exc:`Queue.Full` exceptions from the
+ standard library's :mod:`Queue` module are raised to signal timeouts.
+
+ :class:`~multiprocessing.Queue` implements all the methods of :class:`Queue.Queue` except for
+ :meth:`~Queue.Queue.task_done` and :meth:`~Queue.Queue.join`.
+
+ .. method:: qsize()
+
+ Return the approximate size of the queue. Because of
+ multithreading/multiprocessing semantics, this number is not reliable.
+
+ Note that this may raise :exc:`NotImplementedError` on Unix platforms like
+ Mac OS X where ``sem_getvalue()`` is not implemented.
+
+ .. method:: empty()
+
+ Return ``True`` if the queue is empty, ``False`` otherwise. Because of
+ multithreading/multiprocessing semantics, this is not reliable.
+
+ .. method:: full()
+
+ Return ``True`` if the queue is full, ``False`` otherwise. Because of
+ multithreading/multiprocessing semantics, this is not reliable.
+
+ .. method:: put(obj[, block[, timeout]])
+
+ Put obj into the queue. If the optional argument *block* is ``True``
+ (the default) and *timeout* is ``None`` (the default), block if necessary until
+ a free slot is available. If *timeout* is a positive number, it blocks at
+ most *timeout* seconds and raises the :exc:`Queue.Full` exception if no
+ free slot was available within that time. Otherwise (*block* is
+ ``False``), put an item on the queue if a free slot is immediately
+ available, else raise the :exc:`Queue.Full` exception (*timeout* is
+ ignored in that case).
+
+ .. method:: put_nowait(obj)
+
+ Equivalent to ``put(obj, False)``.
+
+ .. method:: get([block[, timeout]])
+
+ Remove and return an item from the queue. If optional args *block* is
+ ``True`` (the default) and *timeout* is ``None`` (the default), block if
+ necessary until an item is available. If *timeout* is a positive number,
+ it blocks at most *timeout* seconds and raises the :exc:`Queue.Empty`
+ exception if no item was available within that time. Otherwise (block is
+ ``False``), return an item if one is immediately available, else raise the
+ :exc:`Queue.Empty` exception (*timeout* is ignored in that case).
+
+ .. method:: get_nowait()
+
+ Equivalent to ``get(False)``.
+
+ :class:`~multiprocessing.Queue` has a few additional methods not found in
+ :class:`Queue.Queue`. These methods are usually unnecessary for most
+ code:
+
+ .. method:: close()
+
+ Indicate that no more data will be put on this queue by the current
+ process. The background thread will quit once it has flushed all buffered
+ data to the pipe. This is called automatically when the queue is garbage
+ collected.
+
+ .. method:: join_thread()
+
+ Join the background thread. This can only be used after :meth:`close` has
+ been called. It blocks until the background thread exits, ensuring that
+ all data in the buffer has been flushed to the pipe.
+
+ By default if a process is not the creator of the queue then on exit it
+ will attempt to join the queue's background thread. The process can call
+ :meth:`cancel_join_thread` to make :meth:`join_thread` do nothing.
+
+ .. method:: cancel_join_thread()
+
+ Prevent :meth:`join_thread` from blocking. In particular, this prevents
+ the background thread from being joined automatically when the process
+ exits -- see :meth:`join_thread`.
+
+
+.. class:: multiprocessing.queues.SimpleQueue()
+
+ It is a simplified :class:`~multiprocessing.Queue` type, very close to a locked :class:`Pipe`.
+
+ .. method:: empty()
+
+ Return ``True`` if the queue is empty, ``False`` otherwise.
+
+ .. method:: get()
+
+ Remove and return an item from the queue.
+
+ .. method:: put(item)
+
+ Put *item* into the queue.
+
+
+.. class:: JoinableQueue([maxsize])
+
+ :class:`JoinableQueue`, a :class:`~multiprocessing.Queue` subclass, is a queue which
+ additionally has :meth:`task_done` and :meth:`join` methods.
+
+ .. method:: task_done()
+
+ Indicate that a formerly enqueued task is complete. Used by queue consumer
+ threads. For each :meth:`~Queue.get` used to fetch a task, a subsequent
+ call to :meth:`task_done` tells the queue that the processing on the task
+ is complete.
+
+ If a :meth:`~Queue.join` is currently blocking, it will resume when all
+ items have been processed (meaning that a :meth:`task_done` call was
+ received for every item that had been :meth:`~Queue.put` into the queue).
+
+ Raises a :exc:`ValueError` if called more times than there were items
+ placed in the queue.
+
+
+ .. method:: join()
+
+ Block until all items in the queue have been gotten and processed.
+
+ The count of unfinished tasks goes up whenever an item is added to the
+ queue. The count goes down whenever a consumer thread calls
+ :meth:`task_done` to indicate that the item was retrieved and all work on
+ it is complete. When the count of unfinished tasks drops to zero,
+ :meth:`~Queue.join` unblocks.
+
+
+Miscellaneous
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+.. function:: active_children()
+
+ Return list of all live children of the current process.
+
+ Calling this has the side affect of "joining" any processes which have
+ already finished.
+
+.. function:: cpu_count()
+
+ Return the number of CPUs in the system. May raise
+ :exc:`NotImplementedError`.
+
+.. function:: current_process()
+
+ Return the :class:`Process` object corresponding to the current process.
+
+ An analogue of :func:`threading.current_thread`.
+
+.. function:: freeze_support()
+
+ Add support for when a program which uses :mod:`multiprocessing` has been
+ frozen to produce a Windows executable. (Has been tested with **py2exe**,
+ **PyInstaller** and **cx_Freeze**.)
+
+ One needs to call this function straight after the ``if __name__ ==
+ '__main__'`` line of the main module. For example::
+
+ from multiprocessing import Process, freeze_support
+
+ def f():
+ print 'hello world!'
+
+ if __name__ == '__main__':
+ freeze_support()
+ Process(target=f).start()
+
+ If the ``freeze_support()`` line is omitted then trying to run the frozen
+ executable will raise :exc:`RuntimeError`.
+
+ If the module is being run normally by the Python interpreter then
+ :func:`freeze_support` has no effect.
+
+.. function:: set_executable()
+
+ Sets the path of the Python interpreter to use when starting a child process.
+ (By default :data:`sys.executable` is used). Embedders will probably need to
+ do some thing like ::
+
+ set_executable(os.path.join(sys.exec_prefix, 'pythonw.exe'))
+
+ before they can create child processes. (Windows only)
+
+
+.. note::
+
+ :mod:`multiprocessing` contains no analogues of
+ :func:`threading.active_count`, :func:`threading.enumerate`,
+ :func:`threading.settrace`, :func:`threading.setprofile`,
+ :class:`threading.Timer`, or :class:`threading.local`.
+
+
+Connection Objects
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Connection objects allow the sending and receiving of picklable objects or
+strings. They can be thought of as message oriented connected sockets.
+
+Connection objects are usually created using :func:`Pipe` -- see also
+:ref:`multiprocessing-listeners-clients`.
+
+.. class:: Connection
+
+ .. method:: send(obj)
+
+ Send an object to the other end of the connection which should be read
+ using :meth:`recv`.
+
+ The object must be picklable. Very large pickles (approximately 32 MB+,
+ though it depends on the OS) may raise a :exc:`ValueError` exception.
+
+ .. method:: recv()
+
+ Return an object sent from the other end of the connection using
+ :meth:`send`. Blocks until there its something to receive. Raises
+ :exc:`EOFError` if there is nothing left to receive
+ and the other end was closed.
+
+ .. method:: fileno()
+
+ Return the file descriptor or handle used by the connection.
+
+ .. method:: close()
+
+ Close the connection.
+
+ This is called automatically when the connection is garbage collected.
+
+ .. method:: poll([timeout])
+
+ Return whether there is any data available to be read.
+
+ If *timeout* is not specified then it will return immediately. If
+ *timeout* is a number then this specifies the maximum time in seconds to
+ block. If *timeout* is ``None`` then an infinite timeout is used.
+
+ .. method:: send_bytes(buffer[, offset[, size]])
+
+ Send byte data from an object supporting the buffer interface as a
+ complete message.
+
+ If *offset* is given then data is read from that position in *buffer*. If
+ *size* is given then that many bytes will be read from buffer. Very large
+ buffers (approximately 32 MB+, though it depends on the OS) may raise a
+ :exc:`ValueError` exception
+
+ .. method:: recv_bytes([maxlength])
+
+ Return a complete message of byte data sent from the other end of the
+ connection as a string. Blocks until there is something to receive.
+ Raises :exc:`EOFError` if there is nothing left
+ to receive and the other end has closed.
+
+ If *maxlength* is specified and the message is longer than *maxlength*
+ then :exc:`IOError` is raised and the connection will no longer be
+ readable.
+
+ .. method:: recv_bytes_into(buffer[, offset])
+
+ Read into *buffer* a complete message of byte data sent from the other end
+ of the connection and return the number of bytes in the message. Blocks
+ until there is something to receive. Raises
+ :exc:`EOFError` if there is nothing left to receive and the other end was
+ closed.
+
+ *buffer* must be an object satisfying the writable buffer interface. If
+ *offset* is given then the message will be written into the buffer from
+ that position. Offset must be a non-negative integer less than the
+ length of *buffer* (in bytes).
+
+ If the buffer is too short then a :exc:`BufferTooShort` exception is
+ raised and the complete message is available as ``e.args[0]`` where ``e``
+ is the exception instance.
+
+
+For example:
+
+.. doctest::
+
+ >>> from multiprocessing import Pipe
+ >>> a, b = Pipe()
+ >>> a.send([1, 'hello', None])
+ >>> b.recv()
+ [1, 'hello', None]
+ >>> b.send_bytes('thank you')
+ >>> a.recv_bytes()
+ 'thank you'
+ >>> import array
+ >>> arr1 = array.array('i', range(5))
+ >>> arr2 = array.array('i', [0] * 10)
+ >>> a.send_bytes(arr1)
+ >>> count = b.recv_bytes_into(arr2)
+ >>> assert count == len(arr1) * arr1.itemsize
+ >>> arr2
+ array('i', [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0])
+
+
+.. warning::
+
+ The :meth:`Connection.recv` method automatically unpickles the data it
+ receives, which can be a security risk unless you can trust the process
+ which sent the message.
+
+ Therefore, unless the connection object was produced using :func:`Pipe` you
+ should only use the :meth:`~Connection.recv` and :meth:`~Connection.send`
+ methods after performing some sort of authentication. See
+ :ref:`multiprocessing-auth-keys`.
+
+.. warning::
+
+ If a process is killed while it is trying to read or write to a pipe then
+ the data in the pipe is likely to become corrupted, because it may become
+ impossible to be sure where the message boundaries lie.
+
+
+Synchronization primitives
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Generally synchronization primitives are not as necessary in a multiprocess
+program as they are in a multithreaded program. See the documentation for
+:mod:`threading` module.
+
+Note that one can also create synchronization primitives by using a manager
+object -- see :ref:`multiprocessing-managers`.
+
+.. class:: BoundedSemaphore([value])
+
+ A bounded semaphore object: a clone of :class:`threading.BoundedSemaphore`.
+
+ (On Mac OS X, this is indistinguishable from :class:`Semaphore` because
+ ``sem_getvalue()`` is not implemented on that platform).
+
+.. class:: Condition([lock])
+
+ A condition variable: a clone of :class:`threading.Condition`.
+
+ If *lock* is specified then it should be a :class:`Lock` or :class:`RLock`
+ object from :mod:`multiprocessing`.
+
+.. class:: Event()
+
+ A clone of :class:`threading.Event`.
+ This method returns the state of the internal semaphore on exit, so it
+ will always return ``True`` except if a timeout is given and the operation
+ times out.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ Previously, the method always returned ``None``.
+
+.. class:: Lock()
+
+ A non-recursive lock object: a clone of :class:`threading.Lock`.
+
+.. class:: RLock()
+
+ A recursive lock object: a clone of :class:`threading.RLock`.
+
+.. class:: Semaphore([value])
+
+ A semaphore object: a clone of :class:`threading.Semaphore`.
+
+.. note::
+
+ The :meth:`acquire` method of :class:`BoundedSemaphore`, :class:`Lock`,
+ :class:`RLock` and :class:`Semaphore` has a timeout parameter not supported
+ by the equivalents in :mod:`threading`. The signature is
+ ``acquire(block=True, timeout=None)`` with keyword parameters being
+ acceptable. If *block* is ``True`` and *timeout* is not ``None`` then it
+ specifies a timeout in seconds. If *block* is ``False`` then *timeout* is
+ ignored.
+
+ On Mac OS X, ``sem_timedwait`` is unsupported, so calling ``acquire()`` with
+ a timeout will emulate that function's behavior using a sleeping loop.
+
+.. note::
+
+ If the SIGINT signal generated by Ctrl-C arrives while the main thread is
+ blocked by a call to :meth:`BoundedSemaphore.acquire`, :meth:`Lock.acquire`,
+ :meth:`RLock.acquire`, :meth:`Semaphore.acquire`, :meth:`Condition.acquire`
+ or :meth:`Condition.wait` then the call will be immediately interrupted and
+ :exc:`KeyboardInterrupt` will be raised.
+
+ This differs from the behaviour of :mod:`threading` where SIGINT will be
+ ignored while the equivalent blocking calls are in progress.
+
+
+Shared :mod:`ctypes` Objects
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+It is possible to create shared objects using shared memory which can be
+inherited by child processes.
+
+.. function:: Value(typecode_or_type, *args[, lock])
+
+ Return a :mod:`ctypes` object allocated from shared memory. By default the
+ return value is actually a synchronized wrapper for the object.
+
+ *typecode_or_type* determines the type of the returned object: it is either a
+ ctypes type or a one character typecode of the kind used by the :mod:`array`
+ module. *\*args* is passed on to the constructor for the type.
+
+ If *lock* is ``True`` (the default) then a new lock object is created to
+ synchronize access to the value. If *lock* is a :class:`Lock` or
+ :class:`RLock` object then that will be used to synchronize access to the
+ value. If *lock* is ``False`` then access to the returned object will not be
+ automatically protected by a lock, so it will not necessarily be
+ "process-safe".
+
+ Note that *lock* is a keyword-only argument.
+
+.. function:: Array(typecode_or_type, size_or_initializer, *, lock=True)
+
+ Return a ctypes array allocated from shared memory. By default the return
+ value is actually a synchronized wrapper for the array.
+
+ *typecode_or_type* determines the type of the elements of the returned array:
+ it is either a ctypes type or a one character typecode of the kind used by
+ the :mod:`array` module. If *size_or_initializer* is an integer, then it
+ determines the length of the array, and the array will be initially zeroed.
+ Otherwise, *size_or_initializer* is a sequence which is used to initialize
+ the array and whose length determines the length of the array.
+
+ If *lock* is ``True`` (the default) then a new lock object is created to
+ synchronize access to the value. If *lock* is a :class:`Lock` or
+ :class:`RLock` object then that will be used to synchronize access to the
+ value. If *lock* is ``False`` then access to the returned object will not be
+ automatically protected by a lock, so it will not necessarily be
+ "process-safe".
+
+ Note that *lock* is a keyword only argument.
+
+ Note that an array of :data:`ctypes.c_char` has *value* and *raw*
+ attributes which allow one to use it to store and retrieve strings.
+
+
+The :mod:`multiprocessing.sharedctypes` module
+>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
+
+.. module:: multiprocessing.sharedctypes
+ :synopsis: Allocate ctypes objects from shared memory.
+
+The :mod:`multiprocessing.sharedctypes` module provides functions for allocating
+:mod:`ctypes` objects from shared memory which can be inherited by child
+processes.
+
+.. note::
+
+ Although it is possible to store a pointer in shared memory remember that
+ this will refer to a location in the address space of a specific process.
+ However, the pointer is quite likely to be invalid in the context of a second
+ process and trying to dereference the pointer from the second process may
+ cause a crash.
+
+.. function:: RawArray(typecode_or_type, size_or_initializer)
+
+ Return a ctypes array allocated from shared memory.
+
+ *typecode_or_type* determines the type of the elements of the returned array:
+ it is either a ctypes type or a one character typecode of the kind used by
+ the :mod:`array` module. If *size_or_initializer* is an integer then it
+ determines the length of the array, and the array will be initially zeroed.
+ Otherwise *size_or_initializer* is a sequence which is used to initialize the
+ array and whose length determines the length of the array.
+
+ Note that setting and getting an element is potentially non-atomic -- use
+ :func:`Array` instead to make sure that access is automatically synchronized
+ using a lock.
+
+.. function:: RawValue(typecode_or_type, *args)
+
+ Return a ctypes object allocated from shared memory.
+
+ *typecode_or_type* determines the type of the returned object: it is either a
+ ctypes type or a one character typecode of the kind used by the :mod:`array`
+ module. *\*args* is passed on to the constructor for the type.
+
+ Note that setting and getting the value is potentially non-atomic -- use
+ :func:`Value` instead to make sure that access is automatically synchronized
+ using a lock.
+
+ Note that an array of :data:`ctypes.c_char` has ``value`` and ``raw``
+ attributes which allow one to use it to store and retrieve strings -- see
+ documentation for :mod:`ctypes`.
+
+.. function:: Array(typecode_or_type, size_or_initializer, *args[, lock])
+
+ The same as :func:`RawArray` except that depending on the value of *lock* a
+ process-safe synchronization wrapper may be returned instead of a raw ctypes
+ array.
+
+ If *lock* is ``True`` (the default) then a new lock object is created to
+ synchronize access to the value. If *lock* is a :class:`Lock` or
+ :class:`RLock` object then that will be used to synchronize access to the
+ value. If *lock* is ``False`` then access to the returned object will not be
+ automatically protected by a lock, so it will not necessarily be
+ "process-safe".
+
+ Note that *lock* is a keyword-only argument.
+
+.. function:: Value(typecode_or_type, *args[, lock])
+
+ The same as :func:`RawValue` except that depending on the value of *lock* a
+ process-safe synchronization wrapper may be returned instead of a raw ctypes
+ object.
+
+ If *lock* is ``True`` (the default) then a new lock object is created to
+ synchronize access to the value. If *lock* is a :class:`Lock` or
+ :class:`RLock` object then that will be used to synchronize access to the
+ value. If *lock* is ``False`` then access to the returned object will not be
+ automatically protected by a lock, so it will not necessarily be
+ "process-safe".
+
+ Note that *lock* is a keyword-only argument.
+
+.. function:: copy(obj)
+
+ Return a ctypes object allocated from shared memory which is a copy of the
+ ctypes object *obj*.
+
+.. function:: synchronized(obj[, lock])
+
+ Return a process-safe wrapper object for a ctypes object which uses *lock* to
+ synchronize access. If *lock* is ``None`` (the default) then a
+ :class:`multiprocessing.RLock` object is created automatically.
+
+ A synchronized wrapper will have two methods in addition to those of the
+ object it wraps: :meth:`get_obj` returns the wrapped object and
+ :meth:`get_lock` returns the lock object used for synchronization.
+
+ Note that accessing the ctypes object through the wrapper can be a lot slower
+ than accessing the raw ctypes object.
+
+
+The table below compares the syntax for creating shared ctypes objects from
+shared memory with the normal ctypes syntax. (In the table ``MyStruct`` is some
+subclass of :class:`ctypes.Structure`.)

+
+Managers
+~~~~~~~~
+
+Managers provide a way to create data which can be shared between different
+processes. A manager object controls a server process which manages *shared
+objects*. Other processes can access the shared objects by using proxies.
+
+.. function:: multiprocessing.Manager()
+
+ Returns a started :class:`~multiprocessing.managers.SyncManager` object which
+ can be used for sharing objects between processes. The returned manager
+ object corresponds to a spawned child process and has methods which will
+ create shared objects and return corresponding proxies.
+
+.. module:: multiprocessing.managers
+ :synopsis: Share data between process with shared objects.
+
+Manager processes will be shutdown as soon as they are garbage collected or
+their parent process exits. The manager classes are defined in the
+:mod:`multiprocessing.managers` module:
+
+.. class:: BaseManager([address[, authkey]])
+
+ Create a BaseManager object.
+
+ Once created one should call :meth:`start` or ``get_server().serve_forever()`` to ensure
+ that the manager object refers to a started manager process.
+
+ *address* is the address on which the manager process listens for new
+ connections. If *address* is ``None`` then an arbitrary one is chosen.
+
+ *authkey* is the authentication key which will be used to check the validity
+ of incoming connections to the server process. If *authkey* is ``None`` then
+ ``current_process().authkey``. Otherwise *authkey* is used and it
+ must be a string.
+
+ .. method:: start([initializer[, initargs]])
+
+ Start a subprocess to start the manager. If *initializer* is not ``None``
+ then the subprocess will call ``initializer(*initargs)`` when it starts.
+
+ .. method:: get_server()
+
+ Returns a :class:`Server` object which represents the actual server under
+ the control of the Manager. The :class:`Server` object supports the
+ :meth:`serve_forever` method::
+
+ >>> from multiprocessing.managers import BaseManager
+ >>> manager = BaseManager(address=('', 50000), authkey='abc')
+ >>> server = manager.get_server()
+ >>> server.serve_forever()
+
+ :class:`Server` additionally has an :attr:`address` attribute.
+
+ .. method:: connect()
+
+ Connect a local manager object to a remote manager process::
+
+ >>> from multiprocessing.managers import BaseManager
+ >>> m = BaseManager(address=('127.0.0.1', 5000), authkey='abc')
+ >>> m.connect()
+
+ .. method:: shutdown()
+
+ Stop the process used by the manager. This is only available if
+ :meth:`start` has been used to start the server process.
+
+ This can be called multiple times.
+
+ .. method:: register(typeid[, callable[, proxytype[, exposed[, method_to_typeid[, create_method]]]]])
+
+ A classmethod which can be used for registering a type or callable with
+ the manager class.
+
+ *typeid* is a "type identifier" which is used to identify a particular
+ type of shared object. This must be a string.
+
+ *callable* is a callable used for creating objects for this type
+ identifier. If a manager instance will be created using the
+ :meth:`from_address` classmethod or if the *create_method* argument is
+ ``False`` then this can be left as ``None``.
+
+ *proxytype* is a subclass of :class:`BaseProxy` which is used to create
+ proxies for shared objects with this *typeid*. If ``None`` then a proxy
+ class is created automatically.
+
+ *exposed* is used to specify a sequence of method names which proxies for
+ this typeid should be allowed to access using
+ :meth:`BaseProxy._callMethod`. (If *exposed* is ``None`` then
+ :attr:`proxytype._exposed_` is used instead if it exists.) In the case
+ where no exposed list is specified, all "public methods" of the shared
+ object will be accessible. (Here a "public method" means any attribute
+ which has a :meth:`__call__` method and whose name does not begin with
+ ``'_'``.)
+
+ *method_to_typeid* is a mapping used to specify the return type of those
+ exposed methods which should return a proxy. It maps method names to
+ typeid strings. (If *method_to_typeid* is ``None`` then
+ :attr:`proxytype._method_to_typeid_` is used instead if it exists.) If a
+ method's name is not a key of this mapping or if the mapping is ``None``
+ then the object returned by the method will be copied by value.
+
+ *create_method* determines whether a method should be created with name
+ *typeid* which can be used to tell the server process to create a new
+ shared object and return a proxy for it. By default it is ``True``.
+
+ :class:`BaseManager` instances also have one read-only property:
+
+ .. attribute:: address
+
+ The address used by the manager.
+
+
+.. class:: SyncManager
+
+ A subclass of :class:`BaseManager` which can be used for the synchronization
+ of processes. Objects of this type are returned by
+ :func:`multiprocessing.Manager`.
+
+ It also supports creation of shared lists and dictionaries.
+
+ .. method:: BoundedSemaphore([value])
+
+ Create a shared :class:`threading.BoundedSemaphore` object and return a
+ proxy for it.
+
+ .. method:: Condition([lock])
+
+ Create a shared :class:`threading.Condition` object and return a proxy for
+ it.
+
+ If *lock* is supplied then it should be a proxy for a
+ :class:`threading.Lock` or :class:`threading.RLock` object.
+
+ .. method:: Event()
+
+ Create a shared :class:`threading.Event` object and return a proxy for it.
+
+ .. method:: Lock()
+
+ Create a shared :class:`threading.Lock` object and return a proxy for it.
+
+ .. method:: Namespace()
+
+ Create a shared :class:`Namespace` object and return a proxy for it.
+
+ .. method:: Queue([maxsize])
+
+ Create a shared :class:`Queue.Queue` object and return a proxy for it.
+
+ .. method:: RLock()
+
+ Create a shared :class:`threading.RLock` object and return a proxy for it.
+
+ .. method:: Semaphore([value])
+
+ Create a shared :class:`threading.Semaphore` object and return a proxy for
+ it.
+
+ .. method:: Array(typecode, sequence)
+
+ Create an array and return a proxy for it.
+
+ .. method:: Value(typecode, value)
+
+ Create an object with a writable ``value`` attribute and return a proxy
+ for it.
+
+ .. method:: dict()
+ dict(mapping)
+ dict(sequence)
+
+ Create a shared ``dict`` object and return a proxy for it.
+
+ .. method:: list()
+ list(sequence)
+
+ Create a shared ``list`` object and return a proxy for it.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Modifications to mutable values or items in dict and list proxies will not
+ be propagated through the manager, because the proxy has no way of knowing
+ when its values or items are modified. To modify such an item, you can
+ re-assign the modified object to the container proxy::
+
+ # create a list proxy and append a mutable object (a dictionary)
+ lproxy = manager.list()
+ lproxy.append({})
+ # now mutate the dictionary
+ d = lproxy[0]
+ d['a'] = 1
+ d['b'] = 2
+ # at this point, the changes to d are not yet synced, but by
+ # reassigning the dictionary, the proxy is notified of the change
+ lproxy[0] = d
+
+
+Namespace objects
+>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
+
+A namespace object has no public methods, but does have writable attributes.
+Its representation shows the values of its attributes.
+
+However, when using a proxy for a namespace object, an attribute beginning with
+``'_'`` will be an attribute of the proxy and not an attribute of the referent:
+
+.. doctest::
+
+ >>> manager = multiprocessing.Manager()
+ >>> Global = manager.Namespace()
+ >>> Global.x = 10
+ >>> Global.y = 'hello'
+ >>> Global._z = 12.3 # this is an attribute of the proxy
+ >>> print Global
+ Namespace(x=10, y='hello')
+
+
+Customized managers
+>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
+
+To create one's own manager, one creates a subclass of :class:`BaseManager` and
+uses the :meth:`~BaseManager.register` classmethod to register new types or
+callables with the manager class. For example::
+
+ from multiprocessing.managers import BaseManager
+
+ class MathsClass(object):
+ def add(self, x, y):
+ return x + y
+ def mul(self, x, y):
+ return x * y
+
+ class MyManager(BaseManager):
+ pass
+
+ MyManager.register('Maths', MathsClass)
+
+ if __name__ == '__main__':
+ manager = MyManager()
+ manager.start()
+ maths = manager.Maths()
+ print maths.add(4, 3) # prints 7
+ print maths.mul(7, 8) # prints 56
+
+
+Using a remote manager
+>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
+
+It is possible to run a manager server on one machine and have clients use it
+from other machines (assuming that the firewalls involved allow it).
+
+Running the following commands creates a server for a single shared queue which
+remote clients can access::
+
+ >>> from multiprocessing.managers import BaseManager
+ >>> import Queue
+ >>> queue = Queue.Queue()
+ >>> class QueueManager(BaseManager): pass
+ >>> QueueManager.register('get_queue', callable=lambda:queue)
+ >>> m = QueueManager(address=('', 50000), authkey='abracadabra')
+ >>> s = m.get_server()
+ >>> s.serve_forever()
+
+One client can access the server as follows::
+
+ >>> from multiprocessing.managers import BaseManager
+ >>> class QueueManager(BaseManager): pass
+ >>> QueueManager.register('get_queue')
+ >>> m = QueueManager(address=('foo.bar.org', 50000), authkey='abracadabra')
+ >>> m.connect()
+ >>> queue = m.get_queue()
+ >>> queue.put('hello')
+
+Another client can also use it::
+
+ >>> from multiprocessing.managers import BaseManager
+ >>> class QueueManager(BaseManager): pass
+ >>> QueueManager.register('get_queue')
+ >>> m = QueueManager(address=('foo.bar.org', 50000), authkey='abracadabra')
+ >>> m.connect()
+ >>> queue = m.get_queue()
+ >>> queue.get()
+ 'hello'
+
+Local processes can also access that queue, using the code from above on the
+client to access it remotely::
+
+ >>> from multiprocessing import Process, Queue
+ >>> from multiprocessing.managers import BaseManager
+ >>> class Worker(Process):
+ ... def __init__(self, q):
+ ... self.q = q
+ ... super(Worker, self).__init__()
+ ... def run(self):
+ ... self.q.put('local hello')
+ ...
+ >>> queue = Queue()
+ >>> w = Worker(queue)
+ >>> w.start()
+ >>> class QueueManager(BaseManager): pass
+ ...
+ >>> QueueManager.register('get_queue', callable=lambda: queue)
+ >>> m = QueueManager(address=('', 50000), authkey='abracadabra')
+ >>> s = m.get_server()
+ >>> s.serve_forever()
+
+Proxy Objects
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+A proxy is an object which *refers* to a shared object which lives (presumably)
+in a different process. The shared object is said to be the *referent* of the
+proxy. Multiple proxy objects may have the same referent.
+
+A proxy object has methods which invoke corresponding methods of its referent
+(although not every method of the referent will necessarily be available through
+the proxy). A proxy can usually be used in most of the same ways that its
+referent can:
+
+.. doctest::
+
+ >>> from multiprocessing import Manager
+ >>> manager = Manager()
+ >>> l = manager.list([i*i for i in range(10)])
+ >>> print l
+ [0, 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81]
+ >>> print repr(l)
+ <ListProxy object, typeid 'list' at 0x...>
+ >>> l[4]
+ 16
+ >>> l[2:5]
+ [4, 9, 16]
+
+Notice that applying :func:`str` to a proxy will return the representation of
+the referent, whereas applying :func:`repr` will return the representation of
+the proxy.
+
+An important feature of proxy objects is that they are picklable so they can be
+passed between processes. Note, however, that if a proxy is sent to the
+corresponding manager's process then unpickling it will produce the referent
+itself. This means, for example, that one shared object can contain a second:
+
+.. doctest::
+
+ >>> a = manager.list()
+ >>> b = manager.list()
+ >>> a.append(b) # referent of a now contains referent of b
+ >>> print a, b
+ [[]] []
+ >>> b.append('hello')
+ >>> print a, b
+ [['hello']] ['hello']
+
+.. note::
+
+ The proxy types in :mod:`multiprocessing` do nothing to support comparisons
+ by value. So, for instance, we have:
+
+ .. doctest::
+
+ >>> manager.list([1,2,3]) == [1,2,3]
+ False
+
+ One should just use a copy of the referent instead when making comparisons.
+
+.. class:: BaseProxy
+
+ Proxy objects are instances of subclasses of :class:`BaseProxy`.
+
+ .. method:: _callmethod(methodname[, args[, kwds]])
+
+ Call and return the result of a method of the proxy's referent.
+
+ If ``proxy`` is a proxy whose referent is ``obj`` then the expression ::
+
+ proxy._callmethod(methodname, args, kwds)
+
+ will evaluate the expression ::
+
+ getattr(obj, methodname)(*args, **kwds)
+
+ in the manager's process.
+
+ The returned value will be a copy of the result of the call or a proxy to
+ a new shared object -- see documentation for the *method_to_typeid*
+ argument of :meth:`BaseManager.register`.
+
+ If an exception is raised by the call, then is re-raised by
+ :meth:`_callmethod`. If some other exception is raised in the manager's
+ process then this is converted into a :exc:`RemoteError` exception and is
+ raised by :meth:`_callmethod`.
+
+ Note in particular that an exception will be raised if *methodname* has
+ not been *exposed*
+
+ An example of the usage of :meth:`_callmethod`:
+
+ .. doctest::
+
+ >>> l = manager.list(range(10))
+ >>> l._callmethod('__len__')
+ 10
+ >>> l._callmethod('__getslice__', (2, 7)) # equiv to `l[2:7]`
+ [2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
+ >>> l._callmethod('__getitem__', (20,)) # equiv to `l[20]`
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ ...
+ IndexError: list index out of range
+
+ .. method:: _getvalue()
+
+ Return a copy of the referent.
+
+ If the referent is unpicklable then this will raise an exception.
+
+ .. method:: __repr__
+
+ Return a representation of the proxy object.
+
+ .. method:: __str__
+
+ Return the representation of the referent.
+
+
+Cleanup
+>>>>>>>
+
+A proxy object uses a weakref callback so that when it gets garbage collected it
+deregisters itself from the manager which owns its referent.
+
+A shared object gets deleted from the manager process when there are no longer
+any proxies referring to it.
+
+
+Process Pools
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+.. module:: multiprocessing.pool
+ :synopsis: Create pools of processes.
+
+One can create a pool of processes which will carry out tasks submitted to it
+with the :class:`Pool` class.
+
+.. class:: multiprocessing.Pool([processes[, initializer[, initargs[, maxtasksperchild]]]])
+
+ A process pool object which controls a pool of worker processes to which jobs
+ can be submitted. It supports asynchronous results with timeouts and
+ callbacks and has a parallel map implementation.
+
+ *processes* is the number of worker processes to use. If *processes* is
+ ``None`` then the number returned by :func:`cpu_count` is used. If
+ *initializer* is not ``None`` then each worker process will call
+ ``initializer(*initargs)`` when it starts.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+ *maxtasksperchild* is the number of tasks a worker process can complete
+ before it will exit and be replaced with a fresh worker process, to enable
+ unused resources to be freed. The default *maxtasksperchild* is None, which
+ means worker processes will live as long as the pool.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Worker processes within a :class:`Pool` typically live for the complete
+ duration of the Pool's work queue. A frequent pattern found in other
+ systems (such as Apache, mod_wsgi, etc) to free resources held by
+ workers is to allow a worker within a pool to complete only a set
+ amount of work before being exiting, being cleaned up and a new
+ process spawned to replace the old one. The *maxtasksperchild*
+ argument to the :class:`Pool` exposes this ability to the end user.
+
+ .. method:: apply(func[, args[, kwds]])
+
+ Equivalent of the :func:`apply` built-in function. It blocks until the
+ result is ready, so :meth:`apply_async` is better suited for performing
+ work in parallel. Additionally, *func* is only executed in one of the
+ workers of the pool.
+
+ .. method:: apply_async(func[, args[, kwds[, callback]]])
+
+ A variant of the :meth:`apply` method which returns a result object.
+
+ If *callback* is specified then it should be a callable which accepts a
+ single argument. When the result becomes ready *callback* is applied to
+ it (unless the call failed). *callback* should complete immediately since
+ otherwise the thread which handles the results will get blocked.
+
+ .. method:: map(func, iterable[, chunksize])
+
+ A parallel equivalent of the :func:`map` built-in function (it supports only
+ one *iterable* argument though). It blocks until the result is ready.
+
+ This method chops the iterable into a number of chunks which it submits to
+ the process pool as separate tasks. The (approximate) size of these
+ chunks can be specified by setting *chunksize* to a positive integer.
+
+ .. method:: map_async(func, iterable[, chunksize[, callback]])
+
+ A variant of the :meth:`.map` method which returns a result object.
+
+ If *callback* is specified then it should be a callable which accepts a
+ single argument. When the result becomes ready *callback* is applied to
+ it (unless the call failed). *callback* should complete immediately since
+ otherwise the thread which handles the results will get blocked.
+
+ .. method:: imap(func, iterable[, chunksize])
+
+ An equivalent of :func:`itertools.imap`.
+
+ The *chunksize* argument is the same as the one used by the :meth:`.map`
+ method. For very long iterables using a large value for *chunksize* can
+ make the job complete **much** faster than using the default value of
+ ``1``.
+
+ Also if *chunksize* is ``1`` then the :meth:`!next` method of the iterator
+ returned by the :meth:`imap` method has an optional *timeout* parameter:
+ ``next(timeout)`` will raise :exc:`multiprocessing.TimeoutError` if the
+ result cannot be returned within *timeout* seconds.
+
+ .. method:: imap_unordered(func, iterable[, chunksize])
+
+ The same as :meth:`imap` except that the ordering of the results from the
+ returned iterator should be considered arbitrary. (Only when there is
+ only one worker process is the order guaranteed to be "correct".)
+
+ .. method:: close()
+
+ Prevents any more tasks from being submitted to the pool. Once all the
+ tasks have been completed the worker processes will exit.
+
+ .. method:: terminate()
+
+ Stops the worker processes immediately without completing outstanding
+ work. When the pool object is garbage collected :meth:`terminate` will be
+ called immediately.
+
+ .. method:: join()
+
+ Wait for the worker processes to exit. One must call :meth:`close` or
+ :meth:`terminate` before using :meth:`join`.
+
+
+.. class:: AsyncResult
+
+ The class of the result returned by :meth:`Pool.apply_async` and
+ :meth:`Pool.map_async`.
+
+ .. method:: get([timeout])
+
+ Return the result when it arrives. If *timeout* is not ``None`` and the
+ result does not arrive within *timeout* seconds then
+ :exc:`multiprocessing.TimeoutError` is raised. If the remote call raised
+ an exception then that exception will be reraised by :meth:`get`.
+
+ .. method:: wait([timeout])
+
+ Wait until the result is available or until *timeout* seconds pass.
+
+ .. method:: ready()
+
+ Return whether the call has completed.
+
+ .. method:: successful()
+
+ Return whether the call completed without raising an exception. Will
+ raise :exc:`AssertionError` if the result is not ready.
+
+The following example demonstrates the use of a pool::
+
+ from multiprocessing import Pool
+
+ def f(x):
+ return x*x
+
+ if __name__ == '__main__':
+ pool = Pool(processes=4) # start 4 worker processes
+
+ result = pool.apply_async(f, (10,)) # evaluate "f(10)" asynchronously
+ print result.get(timeout=1) # prints "100" unless your computer is *very* slow
+
+ print pool.map(f, range(10)) # prints "[0, 1, 4,..., 81]"
+
+ it = pool.imap(f, range(10))
+ print it.next() # prints "0"
+ print it.next() # prints "1"
+ print it.next(timeout=1) # prints "4" unless your computer is *very* slow
+
+ import time
+ result = pool.apply_async(time.sleep, (10,))
+ print result.get(timeout=1) # raises TimeoutError
+
+
+.. _multiprocessing-listeners-clients:
+
+Listeners and Clients
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+.. module:: multiprocessing.connection
+ :synopsis: API for dealing with sockets.
+
+Usually message passing between processes is done using queues or by using
+:class:`Connection` objects returned by :func:`Pipe`.
+
+However, the :mod:`multiprocessing.connection` module allows some extra
+flexibility. It basically gives a high level message oriented API for dealing
+with sockets or Windows named pipes, and also has support for *digest
+authentication* using the :mod:`hmac` module.
+
+
+.. function:: deliver_challenge(connection, authkey)
+
+ Send a randomly generated message to the other end of the connection and wait
+ for a reply.
+
+ If the reply matches the digest of the message using *authkey* as the key
+ then a welcome message is sent to the other end of the connection. Otherwise
+ :exc:`AuthenticationError` is raised.
+
+.. function:: answer_challenge(connection, authkey)
+
+ Receive a message, calculate the digest of the message using *authkey* as the
+ key, and then send the digest back.
+
+ If a welcome message is not received, then :exc:`AuthenticationError` is
+ raised.
+
+.. function:: Client(address[, family[, authenticate[, authkey]]])
+
+ Attempt to set up a connection to the listener which is using address
+ *address*, returning a :class:`~multiprocessing.Connection`.
+
+ The type of the connection is determined by *family* argument, but this can
+ generally be omitted since it can usually be inferred from the format of
+ *address*. (See :ref:`multiprocessing-address-formats`)
+
+ If *authenticate* is ``True`` or *authkey* is a string then digest
+ authentication is used. The key used for authentication will be either
+ *authkey* or ``current_process().authkey)`` if *authkey* is ``None``.
+ If authentication fails then :exc:`AuthenticationError` is raised. See
+ :ref:`multiprocessing-auth-keys`.
+
+.. class:: Listener([address[, family[, backlog[, authenticate[, authkey]]]]])
+
+ A wrapper for a bound socket or Windows named pipe which is 'listening' for
+ connections.
+
+ *address* is the address to be used by the bound socket or named pipe of the
+ listener object.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ If an address of '0.0.0.0' is used, the address will not be a connectable
+ end point on Windows. If you require a connectable end-point,
+ you should use '127.0.0.1'.
+
+ *family* is the type of socket (or named pipe) to use. This can be one of
+ the strings ``'AF_INET'`` (for a TCP socket), ``'AF_UNIX'`` (for a Unix
+ domain socket) or ``'AF_PIPE'`` (for a Windows named pipe). Of these only
+ the first is guaranteed to be available. If *family* is ``None`` then the
+ family is inferred from the format of *address*. If *address* is also
+ ``None`` then a default is chosen. This default is the family which is
+ assumed to be the fastest available. See
+ :ref:`multiprocessing-address-formats`. Note that if *family* is
+ ``'AF_UNIX'`` and address is ``None`` then the socket will be created in a
+ private temporary directory created using :func:`tempfile.mkstemp`.
+
+ If the listener object uses a socket then *backlog* (1 by default) is passed
+ to the :meth:`listen` method of the socket once it has been bound.
+
+ If *authenticate* is ``True`` (``False`` by default) or *authkey* is not
+ ``None`` then digest authentication is used.
+
+ If *authkey* is a string then it will be used as the authentication key;
+ otherwise it must be *None*.
+
+ If *authkey* is ``None`` and *authenticate* is ``True`` then
+ ``current_process().authkey`` is used as the authentication key. If
+ *authkey* is ``None`` and *authenticate* is ``False`` then no
+ authentication is done. If authentication fails then
+ :exc:`AuthenticationError` is raised. See :ref:`multiprocessing-auth-keys`.
+
+ .. method:: accept()
+
+ Accept a connection on the bound socket or named pipe of the listener
+ object and return a :class:`Connection` object. If authentication is
+ attempted and fails, then :exc:`AuthenticationError` is raised.
+
+ .. method:: close()
+
+ Close the bound socket or named pipe of the listener object. This is
+ called automatically when the listener is garbage collected. However it
+ is advisable to call it explicitly.
+
+ Listener objects have the following read-only properties:
+
+ .. attribute:: address
+
+ The address which is being used by the Listener object.
+
+ .. attribute:: last_accepted
+
+ The address from which the last accepted connection came. If this is
+ unavailable then it is ``None``.
+
+
+The module defines two exceptions:
+
+.. exception:: AuthenticationError
+
+ Exception raised when there is an authentication error.
+
+
+**Examples**
+
+The following server code creates a listener which uses ``'secret password'`` as
+an authentication key. It then waits for a connection and sends some data to
+the client::
+
+ from multiprocessing.connection import Listener
+ from array import array
+
+ address = ('localhost', 6000) # family is deduced to be 'AF_INET'
+ listener = Listener(address, authkey='secret password')
+
+ conn = listener.accept()
+ print 'connection accepted from', listener.last_accepted
+
+ conn.send([2.25, None, 'junk', float])
+
+ conn.send_bytes('hello')
+
+ conn.send_bytes(array('i', [42, 1729]))
+
+ conn.close()
+ listener.close()
+
+The following code connects to the server and receives some data from the
+server::
+
+ from multiprocessing.connection import Client
+ from array import array
+
+ address = ('localhost', 6000)
+ conn = Client(address, authkey='secret password')
+
+ print conn.recv() # => [2.25, None, 'junk', float]
+
+ print conn.recv_bytes() # => 'hello'
+
+ arr = array('i', [0, 0, 0, 0, 0])
+ print conn.recv_bytes_into(arr) # => 8
+ print arr # => array('i', [42, 1729, 0, 0, 0])
+
+ conn.close()
+
+
+.. _multiprocessing-address-formats:
+
+Address Formats
+>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
+
+* An ``'AF_INET'`` address is a tuple of the form ``(hostname, port)`` where
+ *hostname* is a string and *port* is an integer.
+
+* An ``'AF_UNIX'`` address is a string representing a filename on the
+ filesystem.
+
+* An ``'AF_PIPE'`` address is a string of the form
+ :samp:`r'\\\\.\\pipe\\{PipeName}'`. To use :func:`Client` to connect to a named
+ pipe on a remote computer called *ServerName* one should use an address of the
+ form :samp:`r'\\\\{ServerName}\\pipe\\{PipeName}'` instead.
+
+Note that any string beginning with two backslashes is assumed by default to be
+an ``'AF_PIPE'`` address rather than an ``'AF_UNIX'`` address.
+
+
+.. _multiprocessing-auth-keys:
+
+Authentication keys
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+When one uses :meth:`Connection.recv`, the data received is automatically
+unpickled. Unfortunately unpickling data from an untrusted source is a security
+risk. Therefore :class:`Listener` and :func:`Client` use the :mod:`hmac` module
+to provide digest authentication.
+
+An authentication key is a string which can be thought of as a password: once a
+connection is established both ends will demand proof that the other knows the
+authentication key. (Demonstrating that both ends are using the same key does
+**not** involve sending the key over the connection.)
+
+If authentication is requested but do authentication key is specified then the
+return value of ``current_process().authkey`` is used (see
+:class:`~multiprocessing.Process`). This value will automatically inherited by
+any :class:`~multiprocessing.Process` object that the current process creates.
+This means that (by default) all processes of a multi-process program will share
+a single authentication key which can be used when setting up connections
+between themselves.
+
+Suitable authentication keys can also be generated by using :func:`os.urandom`.
+
+
+Logging
+~~~~~~~
+
+Some support for logging is available. Note, however, that the :mod:`logging`
+package does not use process shared locks so it is possible (depending on the
+handler type) for messages from different processes to get mixed up.
+
+.. currentmodule:: multiprocessing
+.. function:: get_logger()
+
+ Returns the logger used by :mod:`multiprocessing`. If necessary, a new one
+ will be created.
+
+ When first created the logger has level :data:`logging.NOTSET` and no
+ default handler. Messages sent to this logger will not by default propagate
+ to the root logger.
+
+ Note that on Windows child processes will only inherit the level of the
+ parent process's logger -- any other customization of the logger will not be
+ inherited.
+
+.. currentmodule:: multiprocessing
+.. function:: log_to_stderr()
+
+ This function performs a call to :func:`get_logger` but in addition to
+ returning the logger created by get_logger, it adds a handler which sends
+ output to :data:`sys.stderr` using format
+ ``'[%(levelname)s/%(processName)s] %(message)s'``.
+
+Below is an example session with logging turned on::
+
+ >>> import multiprocessing, logging
+ >>> logger = multiprocessing.log_to_stderr()
+ >>> logger.setLevel(logging.INFO)
+ >>> logger.warning('doomed')
+ [WARNING/MainProcess] doomed
+ >>> m = multiprocessing.Manager()
+ [INFO/SyncManager-...] child process calling self.run()
+ [INFO/SyncManager-...] created temp directory /.../pymp-...
+ [INFO/SyncManager-...] manager serving at '/.../listener-...'
+ >>> del m
+ [INFO/MainProcess] sending shutdown message to manager
+ [INFO/SyncManager-...] manager exiting with exitcode 0
+
+In addition to having these two logging functions, the multiprocessing also
+exposes two additional logging level attributes. These are :const:`SUBWARNING`
+and :const:`SUBDEBUG`. The table below illustrates where theses fit in the
+normal level hierarchy.
+
++----------------+----------------+
+| Level | Numeric value |
++================+================+
+| ``SUBWARNING`` | 25 |
++----------------+----------------+
+| ``SUBDEBUG`` | 5 |
++----------------+----------------+
+
+For a full table of logging levels, see the :mod:`logging` module.
+
+These additional logging levels are used primarily for certain debug messages
+within the multiprocessing module. Below is the same example as above, except
+with :const:`SUBDEBUG` enabled::
+
+ >>> import multiprocessing, logging
+ >>> logger = multiprocessing.log_to_stderr()
+ >>> logger.setLevel(multiprocessing.SUBDEBUG)
+ >>> logger.warning('doomed')
+ [WARNING/MainProcess] doomed
+ >>> m = multiprocessing.Manager()
+ [INFO/SyncManager-...] child process calling self.run()
+ [INFO/SyncManager-...] created temp directory /.../pymp-...
+ [INFO/SyncManager-...] manager serving at '/.../pymp-djGBXN/listener-...'
+ >>> del m
+ [SUBDEBUG/MainProcess] finalizer calling ...
+ [INFO/MainProcess] sending shutdown message to manager
+ [DEBUG/SyncManager-...] manager received shutdown message
+ [SUBDEBUG/SyncManager-...] calling <Finalize object, callback=unlink, ...
+ [SUBDEBUG/SyncManager-...] finalizer calling <built-in function unlink> ...
+ [SUBDEBUG/SyncManager-...] calling <Finalize object, dead>
+ [SUBDEBUG/SyncManager-...] finalizer calling <function rmtree at 0x5aa730> ...
+ [INFO/SyncManager-...] manager exiting with exitcode 0
+
+The :mod:`multiprocessing.dummy` module
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+.. module:: multiprocessing.dummy
+ :synopsis: Dumb wrapper around threading.
+
+:mod:`multiprocessing.dummy` replicates the API of :mod:`multiprocessing` but is
+no more than a wrapper around the :mod:`threading` module.
+
+
+.. _multiprocessing-programming:
+
+Programming guidelines
+----------------------
+
+There are certain guidelines and idioms which should be adhered to when using
+:mod:`multiprocessing`.
+
+
+All platforms
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Avoid shared state
+
+ As far as possible one should try to avoid shifting large amounts of data
+ between processes.
+
+ It is probably best to stick to using queues or pipes for communication
+ between processes rather than using the lower level synchronization
+ primitives from the :mod:`threading` module.
+
+Picklability
+
+ Ensure that the arguments to the methods of proxies are picklable.
+
+Thread safety of proxies
+
+ Do not use a proxy object from more than one thread unless you protect it
+ with a lock.
+
+ (There is never a problem with different processes using the *same* proxy.)
+
+Joining zombie processes
+
+ On Unix when a process finishes but has not been joined it becomes a zombie.
+ There should never be very many because each time a new process starts (or
+ :func:`active_children` is called) all completed processes which have not
+ yet been joined will be joined. Also calling a finished process's
+ :meth:`Process.is_alive` will join the process. Even so it is probably good
+ practice to explicitly join all the processes that you start.
+
+Better to inherit than pickle/unpickle
+
+ On Windows many types from :mod:`multiprocessing` need to be picklable so
+ that child processes can use them. However, one should generally avoid
+ sending shared objects to other processes using pipes or queues. Instead
+ you should arrange the program so that a process which needs access to a
+ shared resource created elsewhere can inherit it from an ancestor process.
+
+Avoid terminating processes
+
+ Using the :meth:`Process.terminate` method to stop a process is liable to
+ cause any shared resources (such as locks, semaphores, pipes and queues)
+ currently being used by the process to become broken or unavailable to other
+ processes.
+
+ Therefore it is probably best to only consider using
+ :meth:`Process.terminate` on processes which never use any shared resources.
+
+Joining processes that use queues
+
+ Bear in mind that a process that has put items in a queue will wait before
+ terminating until all the buffered items are fed by the "feeder" thread to
+ the underlying pipe. (The child process can call the
+ :meth:`~multiprocessing.Queue.cancel_join_thread` method of the queue to avoid this behaviour.)
+
+ This means that whenever you use a queue you need to make sure that all
+ items which have been put on the queue will eventually be removed before the
+ process is joined. Otherwise you cannot be sure that processes which have
+ put items on the queue will terminate. Remember also that non-daemonic
+ processes will be automatically be joined.
+
+ An example which will deadlock is the following::
+
+ from multiprocessing import Process, Queue
+
+ def f(q):
+ q.put('X' * 1000000)
+
+ if __name__ == '__main__':
+ queue = Queue()
+ p = Process(target=f, args=(queue,))
+ p.start()
+ p.join() # this deadlocks
+ obj = queue.get()
+
+ A fix here would be to swap the last two lines round (or simply remove the
+ ``p.join()`` line).
+
+Explicitly pass resources to child processes
+
+ On Unix a child process can make use of a shared resource created in a
+ parent process using a global resource. However, it is better to pass the
+ object as an argument to the constructor for the child process.
+
+ Apart from making the code (potentially) compatible with Windows this also
+ ensures that as long as the child process is still alive the object will not
+ be garbage collected in the parent process. This might be important if some
+ resource is freed when the object is garbage collected in the parent
+ process.
+
+ So for instance ::
+
+ from multiprocessing import Process, Lock
+
+ def f():
+ ... do something using "lock" ...
+
+ if __name__ == '__main__':
+ lock = Lock()
+ for i in range(10):
+ Process(target=f).start()
+
+ should be rewritten as ::
+
+ from multiprocessing import Process, Lock
+
+ def f(l):
+ ... do something using "l" ...
+
+ if __name__ == '__main__':
+ lock = Lock()
+ for i in range(10):
+ Process(target=f, args=(lock,)).start()
+
+Beware of replacing :data:`sys.stdin` with a "file like object"
+
+ :mod:`multiprocessing` originally unconditionally called::
+
+ os.close(sys.stdin.fileno())
+
+ in the :meth:`multiprocessing.Process._bootstrap` method --- this resulted
+ in issues with processes-in-processes. This has been changed to::
+
+ sys.stdin.close()
+ sys.stdin = open(os.devnull)
+
+ Which solves the fundamental issue of processes colliding with each other
+ resulting in a bad file descriptor error, but introduces a potential danger
+ to applications which replace :func:`sys.stdin` with a "file-like object"
+ with output buffering. This danger is that if multiple processes call
+ :func:`close()` on this file-like object, it could result in the same
+ data being flushed to the object multiple times, resulting in corruption.
+
+ If you write a file-like object and implement your own caching, you can
+ make it fork-safe by storing the pid whenever you append to the cache,
+ and discarding the cache when the pid changes. For example::
+
+ @property
+ def cache(self):
+ pid = os.getpid()
+ if pid != self._pid:
+ self._pid = pid
+ self._cache = []
+ return self._cache
+
+ For more information, see :issue:`5155`, :issue:`5313` and :issue:`5331`
+
+Windows
+~~~~~~~
+
+Since Windows lacks :func:`os.fork` it has a few extra restrictions:
+
+More picklability
+
+ Ensure that all arguments to :meth:`Process.__init__` are picklable. This
+ means, in particular, that bound or unbound methods cannot be used directly
+ as the ``target`` argument on Windows --- just define a function and use
+ that instead.
+
+ Also, if you subclass :class:`Process` then make sure that instances will be
+ picklable when the :meth:`Process.start` method is called.
+
+Global variables
+
+ Bear in mind that if code run in a child process tries to access a global
+ variable, then the value it sees (if any) may not be the same as the value
+ in the parent process at the time that :meth:`Process.start` was called.
+
+ However, global variables which are just module level constants cause no
+ problems.
+
+Safe importing of main module
+
+ Make sure that the main module can be safely imported by a new Python
+ interpreter without causing unintended side effects (such a starting a new
+ process).
+
+ For example, under Windows running the following module would fail with a
+ :exc:`RuntimeError`::
+
+ from multiprocessing import Process
+
+ def foo():
+ print 'hello'
+
+ p = Process(target=foo)
+ p.start()
+
+ Instead one should protect the "entry point" of the program by using ``if
+ __name__ == '__main__':`` as follows::
+
+ from multiprocessing import Process, freeze_support
+
+ def foo():
+ print 'hello'
+
+ if __name__ == '__main__':
+ freeze_support()
+ p = Process(target=foo)
+ p.start()
+
+ (The ``freeze_support()`` line can be omitted if the program will be run
+ normally instead of frozen.)
+
+ This allows the newly spawned Python interpreter to safely import the module
+ and then run the module's ``foo()`` function.
+
+ Similar restrictions apply if a pool or manager is created in the main
+ module.

+=========================================
+

+ :deprecated:
+
+.. deprecated:: 2.6
+ The :mod:`mutex` module has been removed in Python 3.
+
+.. sectionauthor:: Moshe Zadka <[email protected]>
+
+
+The :mod:`mutex` module defines a class that allows mutual-exclusion via
+acquiring and releasing locks. It does not require (or imply)
+:mod:`threading` or multi-tasking, though it could be useful for those
+purposes.
+
+The :mod:`mutex` module defines the following class:
+
+
+.. class:: mutex()
+
+ Create a new (unlocked) mutex.
+
+ A mutex has two pieces of state --- a "locked" bit and a queue. When the mutex
+ is not locked, the queue is empty. Otherwise, the queue contains zero or more
+ ``(function, argument)`` pairs representing functions (or methods) waiting to
+ acquire the lock. When the mutex is unlocked while the queue is not empty, the
+ first queue entry is removed and its ``function(argument)`` pair called,
+ implying it now has the lock.
+
+ Of course, no multi-threading is implied -- hence the funny interface for
+ :meth:`lock`, where a function is called once the lock is acquired.
+
+
+.. _mutex-objects:
+
+Mutex Objects
+-------------
+
+:class:`mutex` objects have following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: mutex.test()
+
+ Check whether the mutex is locked.
+
+
+.. method:: mutex.testandset()
+
+ "Atomic" test-and-set, grab the lock if it is not set, and return ``True``,
+ otherwise, return ``False``.
+
+
+.. method:: mutex.lock(function, argument)
+
+ Execute ``function(argument)``, unless the mutex is locked. In the case it is
+ locked, place the function and argument on the queue. See :meth:`unlock` for
+ explanation of when ``function(argument)`` is executed in that case.
+
+
+.. method:: mutex.unlock()
+
+ Unlock the mutex if queue is empty, otherwise execute the first element in the
+ queue.

+.. deprecated:: 2.6
+ The :mod:`new` module has been removed in Python 3. Use the :mod:`types`
+ module's classes instead.
+
+.. sectionauthor:: Moshe Zadka <[email protected]>
+
+
+The :mod:`new` module allows an interface to the interpreter object creation
+functions. This is for use primarily in marshal-type functions, when a new
+object needs to be created "magically" and not by using the regular creation
+functions. This module provides a low-level interface to the interpreter, so
+care must be exercised when using this module. It is possible to supply
+non-sensical arguments which crash the interpreter when the object is used.
+
+The :mod:`new` module defines the following functions:
+
+
+.. function:: instance(class[, dict])
+
+ This function creates an instance of *class* with dictionary *dict* without
+ calling the :meth:`__init__` constructor. If *dict* is omitted or ``None``, a
+ new, empty dictionary is created for the new instance. Note that there are no
+ guarantees that the object will be in a consistent state.
+
+
+.. function:: instancemethod(function, instance, class)
+
+ This function will return a method object, bound to *instance*, or unbound if
+ *instance* is ``None``. *function* must be callable.
+
+
+.. function:: function(code, globals[, name[, argdefs[, closure]]])
+
+ Returns a (Python) function with the given code and globals. If *name* is given,
+ it must be a string or ``None``. If it is a string, the function will have the
+ given name, otherwise the function name will be taken from ``code.co_name``. If
+ *argdefs* is given, it must be a tuple and will be used to determine the default
+ values of parameters. If *closure* is given, it must be ``None`` or a tuple of
+ cell objects containing objects to bind to the names in ``code.co_freevars``.
+
+
+.. function:: code(argcount, nlocals, stacksize, flags, codestring, constants, names, varnames, filename, name, firstlineno, lnotab)
+
+ This function is an interface to the :c:func:`PyCode_New` C function.
+
+ .. XXX This is still undocumented!
+
+
+.. function:: module(name[, doc])
+
+ This function returns a new module object with name *name*. *name* must be a
+ string. The optional *doc* argument can have any type.
+
+
+.. function:: classobj(name, baseclasses, dict)
+
+ This function returns a new class object, with name *name*, derived from
+ *baseclasses* (which should be a tuple of classes) and with namespace *dict*.

+NNTP Objects
+------------
+
+NNTP instances have the following methods. The *response* that is returned as
+the first item in the return tuple of almost all methods is the server's
+response: a string beginning with a three-digit code. If the server's response
+indicates an error, the method raises one of the above exceptions.
+
+
+.. method:: NNTP.getwelcome()
+
+ Return the welcome message sent by the server in reply to the initial
+ connection. (This message sometimes contains disclaimers or help information
+ that may be relevant to the user.)
+
+
+.. method:: NNTP.set_debuglevel(level)
+
+ Set the instance's debugging level. This controls the amount of debugging
+ output printed. The default, ``0``, produces no debugging output. A value of
+ ``1`` produces a moderate amount of debugging output, generally a single line
+ per request or response. A value of ``2`` or higher produces the maximum amount
+ of debugging output, logging each line sent and received on the connection
+ (including message text).
+
+
+.. method:: NNTP.newgroups(date, time, [file])
+
+ Send a ``NEWGROUPS`` command. The *date* argument should be a string of the
+ form ``'yymmdd'`` indicating the date, and *time* should be a string of the form
+ ``'hhmmss'`` indicating the time. Return a pair ``(response, groups)`` where
+ *groups* is a list of group names that are new since the given date and time. If
+ the *file* parameter is supplied, then the output of the ``NEWGROUPS`` command
+ is stored in a file. If *file* is a string, then the method will open a file
+ object with that name, write to it then close it. If *file* is a file object,
+ then it will start calling :meth:`write` on it to store the lines of the command
+ output. If *file* is supplied, then the returned *list* is an empty list.
+
+
+.. method:: NNTP.newnews(group, date, time, [file])
+
+ Send a ``NEWNEWS`` command. Here, *group* is a group name or ``'*'``, and
+ *date* and *time* have the same meaning as for :meth:`newgroups`. Return a pair
+ ``(response, articles)`` where *articles* is a list of message ids. If the
+ *file* parameter is supplied, then the output of the ``NEWNEWS`` command is
+ stored in a file. If *file* is a string, then the method will open a file
+ object with that name, write to it then close it. If *file* is a file object,
+ then it will start calling :meth:`write` on it to store the lines of the command
+ output. If *file* is supplied, then the returned *list* is an empty list.
+
+
+.. method:: NNTP.list([file])
+
+ Send a ``LIST`` command. Return a pair ``(response, list)`` where *list* is a
+ list of tuples. Each tuple has the form ``(group, last, first, flag)``, where
+ *group* is a group name, *last* and *first* are the last and first article
+ numbers (as strings), and *flag* is ``'y'`` if posting is allowed, ``'n'`` if
+ not, and ``'m'`` if the newsgroup is moderated. (Note the ordering: *last*,
+ *first*.) If the *file* parameter is supplied, then the output of the ``LIST``
+ command is stored in a file. If *file* is a string, then the method will open
+ a file object with that name, write to it then close it. If *file* is a file
+ object, then it will start calling :meth:`write` on it to store the lines of the
+ command output. If *file* is supplied, then the returned *list* is an empty
+ list.
+
+
+.. method:: NNTP.descriptions(grouppattern)
+
+ Send a ``LIST NEWSGROUPS`` command, where *grouppattern* is a wildmat string as
+ specified in RFC2980 (it's essentially the same as DOS or UNIX shell wildcard
+ strings). Return a pair ``(response, list)``, where *list* is a list of tuples
+ containing ``(name, title)``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+.. method:: NNTP.description(group)
+
+ Get a description for a single group *group*. If more than one group matches
+ (if 'group' is a real wildmat string), return the first match. If no group
+ matches, return an empty string.
+
+ This elides the response code from the server. If the response code is needed,
+ use :meth:`descriptions`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+.. method:: NNTP.group(name)
+
+ Send a ``GROUP`` command, where *name* is the group name. Return a tuple
+ ``(response, count, first, last, name)`` where *count* is the (estimated) number
+ of articles in the group, *first* is the first article number in the group,
+ *last* is the last article number in the group, and *name* is the group name.
+ The numbers are returned as strings.
+
+
+.. method:: NNTP.help([file])
+
+ Send a ``HELP`` command. Return a pair ``(response, list)`` where *list* is a
+ list of help strings. If the *file* parameter is supplied, then the output of
+ the ``HELP`` command is stored in a file. If *file* is a string, then the
+ method will open a file object with that name, write to it then close it. If
+ *file* is a file object, then it will start calling :meth:`write` on it to store
+ the lines of the command output. If *file* is supplied, then the returned *list*
+ is an empty list.
+
+
+.. method:: NNTP.stat(id)
+
+ Send a ``STAT`` command, where *id* is the message id (enclosed in ``'<'`` and
+ ``'>'``) or an article number (as a string). Return a triple ``(response,
+ number, id)`` where *number* is the article number (as a string) and *id* is the
+ message id (enclosed in ``'<'`` and ``'>'``).
+
+
+.. method:: NNTP.next()
+
+ Send a ``NEXT`` command. Return as for :meth:`stat`.
+
+
+.. method:: NNTP.last()
+
+ Send a ``LAST`` command. Return as for :meth:`stat`.
+
+
+.. method:: NNTP.head(id)
+
+ Send a ``HEAD`` command, where *id* has the same meaning as for :meth:`stat`.
+ Return a tuple ``(response, number, id, list)`` where the first three are the
+ same as for :meth:`stat`, and *list* is a list of the article's headers (an
+ uninterpreted list of lines, without trailing newlines).
+
+
+.. method:: NNTP.body(id,[file])
+
+ Send a ``BODY`` command, where *id* has the same meaning as for :meth:`stat`.
+ If the *file* parameter is supplied, then the body is stored in a file. If
+ *file* is a string, then the method will open a file object with that name,

+ calling :meth:`write` on it to store the lines of the body. Return as for
+ :meth:`head`. If *file* is supplied, then the returned *list* is an empty list.
+
+
+.. method:: NNTP.article(id)
+
+ Send an ``ARTICLE`` command, where *id* has the same meaning as for

+
+
+.. method:: NNTP.slave()
+
+ Send a ``SLAVE`` command. Return the server's *response*.
+
+
+.. method:: NNTP.xhdr(header, string, [file])
+
+ Send an ``XHDR`` command. This command is not defined in the RFC but is a
+ common extension. The *header* argument is a header keyword, e.g.
+ ``'subject'``. The *string* argument should have the form ``'first-last'``
+ where *first* and *last* are the first and last article numbers to search.
+ Return a pair ``(response, list)``, where *list* is a list of pairs ``(id,
+ text)``, where *id* is an article number (as a string) and *text* is the text of
+ the requested header for that article. If the *file* parameter is supplied, then

+
+
+.. method:: NNTP.post(file)
+
+ Post an article using the ``POST`` command. The *file* argument is an open file
+ object which is read until EOF using its :meth:`readline` method. It should be
+ a well-formed news article, including the required headers. The :meth:`post`
+ method automatically escapes lines beginning with ``.``.
+
+
+.. method:: NNTP.ihave(id, file)

+ is an optional NNTP extension, and may not be supported by all servers.
+
+
+.. method:: NNTP.xgtitle(name, [file])
+
+ Process an ``XGTITLE`` command, returning a pair ``(response, list)``, where

+:mod:`numbers` --- Numeric abstract base classes
+================================================
+
+.. module:: numbers
+ :synopsis: Numeric abstract base classes (Complex, Real, Integral, etc.).
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+The :mod:`numbers` module (:pep:`3141`) defines a hierarchy of numeric
+:term:`abstract base classes <abstract base class>` which progressively define
+more operations. None of the types defined in this module can be instantiated.
+
+
+.. class:: Number
+
+ The root of the numeric hierarchy. If you just want to check if an argument
+ *x* is a number, without caring what kind, use ``isinstance(x, Number)``.
+
+
+The numeric tower
+-----------------
+
+.. class:: Complex
+
+ Subclasses of this type describe complex numbers and include the operations
+ that work on the built-in :class:`complex` type. These are: conversions to
+ :class:`complex` and :class:`bool`, :attr:`.real`, :attr:`.imag`, ``+``,
+ ``-``, ``*``, ``/``, :func:`abs`, :meth:`conjugate`, ``==``, and ``!=``. All
+ except ``-`` and ``!=`` are abstract.
+
+ .. attribute:: real
+
+ Abstract. Retrieves the real component of this number.
+
+ .. attribute:: imag
+
+ Abstract. Retrieves the imaginary component of this number.
+
+ .. method:: conjugate()
+
+ Abstract. Returns the complex conjugate. For example, ``(1+3j).conjugate()
+ == (1-3j)``.
+
+.. class:: Real
+
+ To :class:`Complex`, :class:`Real` adds the operations that work on real
+ numbers.
+
+ In short, those are: a conversion to :class:`float`, :func:`math.trunc`,
+ :func:`round`, :func:`math.floor`, :func:`math.ceil`, :func:`divmod`, ``//``,
+ ``%``, ``<``, ``<=``, ``>``, and ``>=``.
+
+ Real also provides defaults for :func:`complex`, :attr:`~Complex.real`,
+ :attr:`~Complex.imag`, and :meth:`~Complex.conjugate`.
+
+
+.. class:: Rational
+
+ Subtypes :class:`Real` and adds
+ :attr:`~Rational.numerator` and :attr:`~Rational.denominator` properties, which
+ should be in lowest terms. With these, it provides a default for
+ :func:`float`.
+
+ .. attribute:: numerator
+
+ Abstract.
+
+ .. attribute:: denominator
+
+ Abstract.
+
+
+.. class:: Integral
+
+ Subtypes :class:`Rational` and adds a conversion to :class:`int`. Provides
+ defaults for :func:`float`, :attr:`~Rational.numerator`, and
+ :attr:`~Rational.denominator`. Adds abstract methods for ``**`` and
+ bit-string operations: ``<<``, ``>>``, ``&``, ``^``, ``|``, ``~``.
+
+
+Notes for type implementors
+---------------------------
+
+Implementors should be careful to make equal numbers equal and hash
+them to the same values. This may be subtle if there are two different
+extensions of the real numbers. For example, :class:`fractions.Fraction`
+implements :func:`hash` as follows::
+
+ def __hash__(self):
+ if self.denominator == 1:
+ # Get integers right.
+ return hash(self.numerator)
+ # Expensive check, but definitely correct.
+ if self == float(self):
+ return hash(float(self))
+ else:
+ # Use tuple's hash to avoid a high collision rate on
+ # simple fractions.
+ return hash((self.numerator, self.denominator))
+
+
+Adding More Numeric ABCs
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+There are, of course, more possible ABCs for numbers, and this would
+be a poor hierarchy if it precluded the possibility of adding
+those. You can add ``MyFoo`` between :class:`Complex` and
+:class:`Real` with::
+
+ class MyFoo(Complex): ...
+ MyFoo.register(Real)
+
+
+Implementing the arithmetic operations
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+We want to implement the arithmetic operations so that mixed-mode
+operations either call an implementation whose author knew about the
+types of both arguments, or convert both to the nearest built in type
+and do the operation there. For subtypes of :class:`Integral`, this
+means that :meth:`__add__` and :meth:`__radd__` should be defined as::
+
+ class MyIntegral(Integral):
+
+ def __add__(self, other):
+ if isinstance(other, MyIntegral):
+ return do_my_adding_stuff(self, other)
+ elif isinstance(other, OtherTypeIKnowAbout):
+ return do_my_other_adding_stuff(self, other)
+ else:
+ return NotImplemented
+
+ def __radd__(self, other):
+ if isinstance(other, MyIntegral):
+ return do_my_adding_stuff(other, self)
+ elif isinstance(other, OtherTypeIKnowAbout):
+ return do_my_other_adding_stuff(other, self)
+ elif isinstance(other, Integral):
+ return int(other) + int(self)
+ elif isinstance(other, Real):
+ return float(other) + float(self)
+ elif isinstance(other, Complex):
+ return complex(other) + complex(self)
+ else:
+ return NotImplemented
+
+
+There are 5 different cases for a mixed-type operation on subclasses
+of :class:`Complex`. I'll refer to all of the above code that doesn't
+refer to ``MyIntegral`` and ``OtherTypeIKnowAbout`` as
+"boilerplate". ``a`` will be an instance of ``A``, which is a subtype
+of :class:`Complex` (``a : A <: Complex``), and ``b : B <:
+Complex``. I'll consider ``a + b``:
+
+ 1. If ``A`` defines an :meth:`__add__` which accepts ``b``, all is
+ well.
+ 2. If ``A`` falls back to the boilerplate code, and it were to
+ return a value from :meth:`__add__`, we'd miss the possibility
+ that ``B`` defines a more intelligent :meth:`__radd__`, so the
+ boilerplate should return :const:`NotImplemented` from
+ :meth:`__add__`. (Or ``A`` may not implement :meth:`__add__` at
+ all.)
+ 3. Then ``B``'s :meth:`__radd__` gets a chance. If it accepts
+ ``a``, all is well.
+ 4. If it falls back to the boilerplate, there are no more possible
+ methods to try, so this is where the default implementation
+ should live.
+ 5. If ``B <: A``, Python tries ``B.__radd__`` before
+ ``A.__add__``. This is ok, because it was implemented with
+ knowledge of ``A``, so it can handle those instances before
+ delegating to :class:`Complex`.
+
+If ``A <: Complex`` and ``B <: Real`` without sharing any other knowledge,
+then the appropriate shared operation is the one involving the built
+in :class:`complex`, and both :meth:`__radd__` s land there, so ``a+b
+== b+a``.
+
+Because most of the operations on any given type will be very similar,
+it can be useful to define a helper function which generates the
+forward and reverse instances of any given operator. For example,
+:class:`fractions.Fraction` uses::
+
+ def _operator_fallbacks(monomorphic_operator, fallback_operator):
+ def forward(a, b):
+ if isinstance(b, (int, long, Fraction)):
+ return monomorphic_operator(a, b)
+ elif isinstance(b, float):
+ return fallback_operator(float(a), b)
+ elif isinstance(b, complex):
+ return fallback_operator(complex(a), b)
+ else:
+ return NotImplemented
+ forward.__name__ = '__' + fallback_operator.__name__ + '__'
+ forward.__doc__ = monomorphic_operator.__doc__
+
+ def reverse(b, a):
+ if isinstance(a, Rational):
+ # Includes ints.
+ return monomorphic_operator(a, b)
+ elif isinstance(a, numbers.Real):
+ return fallback_operator(float(a), float(b))
+ elif isinstance(a, numbers.Complex):
+ return fallback_operator(complex(a), complex(b))
+ else:
+ return NotImplemented
+ reverse.__name__ = '__r' + fallback_operator.__name__ + '__'
+ reverse.__doc__ = monomorphic_operator.__doc__
+
+ return forward, reverse
+
+ def _add(a, b):
+ """a + b"""
+ return Fraction(a.numerator * b.denominator +
+ b.numerator * a.denominator,
+ a.denominator * b.denominator)
+
+ __add__, __radd__ = _operator_fallbacks(_add, operator.add)
+

+:mod:`operator` --- Standard operators as functions
+===================================================
+
+.. module:: operator
+ :synopsis: Functions corresponding to the standard operators.
+.. sectionauthor:: Skip Montanaro <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. testsetup::
+
+ import operator
+ from operator import itemgetter
+
+
+The :mod:`operator` module exports a set of efficient functions corresponding to
+the intrinsic operators of Python. For example, ``operator.add(x, y)`` is
+equivalent to the expression ``x+y``. The function names are those used for
+special class methods; variants without leading and trailing ``__`` are also
+provided for convenience.
+
+The functions fall into categories that perform object comparisons, logical
+operations, mathematical operations, sequence operations, and abstract type
+tests.
+
+The object comparison functions are useful for all objects, and are named after
+the rich comparison operators they support:
+
+
+.. function:: lt(a, b)
+ le(a, b)
+ eq(a, b)
+ ne(a, b)
+ ge(a, b)
+ gt(a, b)
+ __lt__(a, b)
+ __le__(a, b)
+ __eq__(a, b)
+ __ne__(a, b)
+ __ge__(a, b)
+ __gt__(a, b)
+
+ Perform "rich comparisons" between *a* and *b*. Specifically, ``lt(a, b)`` is
+ equivalent to ``a < b``, ``le(a, b)`` is equivalent to ``a <= b``, ``eq(a,
+ b)`` is equivalent to ``a == b``, ``ne(a, b)`` is equivalent to ``a != b``,
+ ``gt(a, b)`` is equivalent to ``a > b`` and ``ge(a, b)`` is equivalent to ``a
+ >= b``. Note that unlike the built-in :func:`cmp`, these functions can
+ return any value, which may or may not be interpretable as a Boolean value.
+ See :ref:`comparisons` for more information about rich comparisons.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+The logical operations are also generally applicable to all objects, and support
+truth tests, identity tests, and boolean operations:
+
+
+.. function:: not_(obj)
+ __not__(obj)
+
+ Return the outcome of :keyword:`not` *obj*. (Note that there is no
+ :meth:`__not__` method for object instances; only the interpreter core defines
+ this operation. The result is affected by the :meth:`__nonzero__` and
+ :meth:`__len__` methods.)
+
+
+.. function:: truth(obj)
+
+ Return :const:`True` if *obj* is true, and :const:`False` otherwise. This is
+ equivalent to using the :class:`bool` constructor.
+
+
+.. function:: is_(a, b)
+
+ Return ``a is b``. Tests object identity.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. function:: is_not(a, b)
+
+ Return ``a is not b``. Tests object identity.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+The mathematical and bitwise operations are the most numerous:
+
+
+.. function:: abs(obj)
+ __abs__(obj)
+
+ Return the absolute value of *obj*.
+
+
+.. function:: add(a, b)
+ __add__(a, b)
+
+ Return ``a + b``, for *a* and *b* numbers.
+

+
+
+.. function:: div(a, b)
+ __div__(a, b)
+
+ Return ``a / b`` when ``__future__.division`` is not in effect. This is
+ also known as "classic" division.
+
+
+.. function:: floordiv(a, b)
+ __floordiv__(a, b)
+
+ Return ``a // b``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+
+.. function:: index(a)
+ __index__(a)
+
+ Return *a* converted to an integer. Equivalent to ``a.__index__()``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. function:: inv(obj)
+ invert(obj)
+ __inv__(obj)
+ __invert__(obj)
+
+ Return the bitwise inverse of the number *obj*. This is equivalent to ``~obj``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+ The names :func:`invert` and :func:`__invert__`.
+
+
+.. function:: lshift(a, b)
+ __lshift__(a, b)
+
+ Return *a* shifted left by *b*.
+
+
+.. function:: mod(a, b)
+ __mod__(a, b)
+
+ Return ``a % b``.
+
+

+ __mul__(a, b)
+
+ Return ``a * b``, for *a* and *b* numbers.
+
+

+
+ Return *obj* negated (``-obj``).
+
+
+.. function:: or_(a, b)
+ __or__(a, b)
+
+ Return the bitwise or of *a* and *b*.
+
+
+.. function:: pos(obj)
+ __pos__(obj)
+
+ Return *obj* positive (``+obj``).
+
+

+
+ Return ``a + b`` for *a* and *b* sequences.
+

+
+ Set the value of *a* at index *b* to *c*.
+
+
+.. function:: setslice(a, b, c, v)

+
+ Set the slice of *a* from index *b* to index *c-1* to the sequence *v*.
+
+ .. deprecated:: 2.6
+ This function is removed in Python 3.x. Use :func:`setitem` with a slice

+
+Example use of operator functions::
+
+ >>> # Elementwise multiplication
+ >>> map(mul, [0, 1, 2, 3], [10, 20, 30, 40])
+ [0, 20, 60, 120]
+
+ >>> # Dot product
+ >>> sum(map(mul, [0, 1, 2, 3], [10, 20, 30, 40]))
+ 200
+
+Many operations have an "in-place" version. The following functions provide a
+more primitive access to in-place operators than the usual syntax does; for
+example, the :term:`statement` ``x += y`` is equivalent to
+``x = operator.iadd(x, y)``. Another way to put it is to say that
+``z = operator.iadd(x, y)`` is equivalent to the compound statement
+``z = x; z += y``.
+
+.. function:: iadd(a, b)
+ __iadd__(a, b)
+
+ ``a = iadd(a, b)`` is equivalent to ``a += b``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. function:: iand(a, b)

+
+

+
+
+The :mod:`operator` module also defines a few predicates to test the type of
+objects; however, these are not all reliable. It is preferable to test
+abstract base classes instead (see :mod:`collections` and
+:mod:`numbers` for details).
+
+.. function:: isCallable(obj)
+
+ .. deprecated:: 2.0
+ Use ``isinstance(x, collections.Callable)`` instead.
+
+ Returns true if the object *obj* can be called like a function, otherwise it
+ returns false. True is returned for functions, bound and unbound methods, class
+ objects, and instance objects which support the :meth:`__call__` method.
+
+
+.. function:: isMappingType(obj)
+
+ .. deprecated:: 2.7
+ Use ``isinstance(x, collections.Mapping)`` instead.
+
+ Returns true if the object *obj* supports the mapping interface. This is true for
+ dictionaries and all instance objects defining :meth:`__getitem__`.
+
+
+.. function:: isNumberType(obj)
+
+ .. deprecated:: 2.7
+ Use ``isinstance(x, numbers.Number)`` instead.
+
+ Returns true if the object *obj* represents a number. This is true for all
+ numeric types implemented in C.
+
+
+.. function:: isSequenceType(obj)
+
+ .. deprecated:: 2.7
+ Use ``isinstance(x, collections.Sequence)`` instead.
+
+ Returns true if the object *obj* supports the sequence protocol. This returns true
+ for all objects which define sequence methods in C, and for all instance objects
+ defining :meth:`__getitem__`.
+
+
+The :mod:`operator` module also defines tools for generalized attribute and item
+lookups. These are useful for making fast field extractors as arguments for
+:func:`map`, :func:`sorted`, :meth:`itertools.groupby`, or other functions that
+expect a function argument.
+
+
+.. function:: attrgetter(attr)
+ attrgetter(*attrs)
+
+ Return a callable object that fetches *attr* from its operand.
+ If more than one attribute is requested, returns a tuple of attributes.
+ The attribute names can also contain dots. For example:
+
+ * After ``f = attrgetter('name')``, the call ``f(b)`` returns ``b.name``.
+
+ * After ``f = attrgetter('name', 'date')``, the call ``f(b)`` returns
+ ``(b.name, b.date)``.
+
+ * After ``f = attrgetter('name.first', 'name.last')``, the call ``f(b)``
+ returns ``(r.name.first, r.name.last)``.
+
+ Equivalent to::
+
+ def attrgetter(*items):
+ if len(items) == 1:
+ attr = items[0]
+ def g(obj):
+ return resolve_attr(obj, attr)
+ else:
+ def g(obj):
+ return tuple(resolve_att(obj, attr) for attr in items)
+ return g
+
+ def resolve_attr(obj, attr):
+ for name in attr.split("."):
+ obj = getattr(obj, name)
+ return obj
+
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ Added support for multiple attributes.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ Added support for dotted attributes.
+
+
+.. function:: itemgetter(item)
+ itemgetter(*items)
+
+ Return a callable object that fetches *item* from its operand using the
+ operand's :meth:`__getitem__` method. If multiple items are specified,
+ returns a tuple of lookup values. For example:
+
+ * After ``f = itemgetter(2)``, the call ``f(r)`` returns ``r[2]``.
+
+ * After ``g = itemgetter(2, 5, 3)``, the call ``g(r)`` returns
+ ``(r[2], r[5], r[3])``.
+
+ Equivalent to::
+
+ def itemgetter(*items):
+ if len(items) == 1:
+ item = items[0]
+ def g(obj):
+ return obj[item]
+ else:
+ def g(obj):
+ return tuple(obj[item] for item in items)
+ return g
+
+ The items can be any type accepted by the operand's :meth:`__getitem__`
+ method. Dictionaries accept any hashable value. Lists, tuples, and
+ strings accept an index or a slice:
+
+ >>> itemgetter(1)('ABCDEFG')
+ 'B'
+ >>> itemgetter(1,3,5)('ABCDEFG')
+ ('B', 'D', 'F')
+ >>> itemgetter(slice(2,None))('ABCDEFG')
+ 'CDEFG'
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ Added support for multiple item extraction.
+
+ Example of using :func:`itemgetter` to retrieve specific fields from a
+ tuple record:
+
+ >>> inventory = [('apple', 3), ('banana', 2), ('pear', 5), ('orange', 1)]
+ >>> getcount = itemgetter(1)
+ >>> map(getcount, inventory)
+ [3, 2, 5, 1]
+ >>> sorted(inventory, key=getcount)
+ [('orange', 1), ('banana', 2), ('apple', 3), ('pear', 5)]
+
+
+.. function:: methodcaller(name[, args...])
+
+ Return a callable object that calls the method *name* on its operand. If
+ additional arguments and/or keyword arguments are given, they will be given
+ to the method as well. For example:
+
+ * After ``f = methodcaller('name')``, the call ``f(b)`` returns ``b.name()``.
+
+ * After ``f = methodcaller('name', 'foo', bar=1)``, the call ``f(b)``
+ returns ``b.name('foo', bar=1)``.
+
+ Equivalent to::
+
+ def methodcaller(name, *args, **kwargs):
+ def caller(obj):
+ return getattr(obj, name)(*args, **kwargs)

+:mod:`optparse` --- Parser for command line options
+===================================================
+
+.. module:: optparse
+ :synopsis: Command-line option parsing library.
+ :deprecated:
+.. moduleauthor:: Greg Ward <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Greg Ward <[email protected]>
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+.. deprecated:: 2.7
+ The :mod:`optparse` module is deprecated and will not be developed further;
+ development will continue with the :mod:`argparse` module.
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/optparse.py`
+
+--------------
+
+:mod:`optparse` is a more convenient, flexible, and powerful library for parsing
+command-line options than the old :mod:`getopt` module. :mod:`optparse` uses a
+more declarative style of command-line parsing: you create an instance of
+:class:`OptionParser`, populate it with options, and parse the command
+line. :mod:`optparse` allows users to specify options in the conventional
+GNU/POSIX syntax, and additionally generates usage and help messages for you.
+
+Here's an example of using :mod:`optparse` in a simple script::
+
+ from optparse import OptionParser
+ [...]
+ parser = OptionParser()
+ parser.add_option("-f", "--file", dest="filename",
+ help="write report to FILE", metavar="FILE")
+ parser.add_option("-q", "--quiet",
+ action="store_false", dest="verbose", default=True,
+ help="don't print status messages to stdout")
+
+ (options, args) = parser.parse_args()
+
+With these few lines of code, users of your script can now do the "usual thing"
+on the command-line, for example::
+
+ <yourscript> --file=outfile -q
+
+As it parses the command line, :mod:`optparse` sets attributes of the
+``options`` object returned by :meth:`parse_args` based on user-supplied
+command-line values. When :meth:`parse_args` returns from parsing this command
+line, ``options.filename`` will be ``"outfile"`` and ``options.verbose`` will be
+``False``. :mod:`optparse` supports both long and short options, allows short
+options to be merged together, and allows options to be associated with their
+arguments in a variety of ways. Thus, the following command lines are all
+equivalent to the above example::
+
+ <yourscript> -f outfile --quiet
+ <yourscript> --quiet --file outfile
+ <yourscript> -q -foutfile
+ <yourscript> -qfoutfile
+
+Additionally, users can run one of ::
+
+ <yourscript> -h
+ <yourscript> --help
+
+and :mod:`optparse` will print out a brief summary of your script's options:
+
+.. code-block:: text
+
+ Usage: <yourscript> [options]
+
+ Options:
+ -h, --help show this help message and exit
+ -f FILE, --file=FILE write report to FILE
+ -q, --quiet don't print status messages to stdout
+
+where the value of *yourscript* is determined at runtime (normally from
+``sys.argv[0]``).
+
+
+.. _optparse-background:
+
+Background
+----------
+
+:mod:`optparse` was explicitly designed to encourage the creation of programs
+with straightforward, conventional command-line interfaces. To that end, it
+supports only the most common command-line syntax and semantics conventionally
+used under Unix. If you are unfamiliar with these conventions, read this
+section to acquaint yourself with them.
+
+
+.. _optparse-terminology:
+
+Terminology
+^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+argument
+ a string entered on the command-line, and passed by the shell to ``execl()``
+ or ``execv()``. In Python, arguments are elements of ``sys.argv[1:]``
+ (``sys.argv[0]`` is the name of the program being executed). Unix shells
+ also use the term "word".
+
+ It is occasionally desirable to substitute an argument list other than
+ ``sys.argv[1:]``, so you should read "argument" as "an element of
+ ``sys.argv[1:]``, or of some other list provided as a substitute for
+ ``sys.argv[1:]``".
+
+option
+ an argument used to supply extra information to guide or customize the
+ execution of a program. There are many different syntaxes for options; the
+ traditional Unix syntax is a hyphen ("-") followed by a single letter,
+ e.g. ``-x`` or ``-F``. Also, traditional Unix syntax allows multiple
+ options to be merged into a single argument, e.g. ``-x -F`` is equivalent
+ to ``-xF``. The GNU project introduced ``--`` followed by a series of
+ hyphen-separated words, e.g. ``--file`` or ``--dry-run``. These are the
+ only two option syntaxes provided by :mod:`optparse`.
+
+ Some other option syntaxes that the world has seen include:
+
+ * a hyphen followed by a few letters, e.g. ``-pf`` (this is *not* the same
+ as multiple options merged into a single argument)
+
+ * a hyphen followed by a whole word, e.g. ``-file`` (this is technically
+ equivalent to the previous syntax, but they aren't usually seen in the same
+ program)
+
+ * a plus sign followed by a single letter, or a few letters, or a word, e.g.
+ ``+f``, ``+rgb``
+
+ * a slash followed by a letter, or a few letters, or a word, e.g. ``/f``,
+ ``/file``
+
+ These option syntaxes are not supported by :mod:`optparse`, and they never
+ will be. This is deliberate: the first three are non-standard on any
+ environment, and the last only makes sense if you're exclusively targeting
+ VMS, MS-DOS, and/or Windows.
+
+option argument
+ an argument that follows an option, is closely associated with that option,
+ and is consumed from the argument list when that option is. With
+ :mod:`optparse`, option arguments may either be in a separate argument from
+ their option:
+
+ .. code-block:: text
+
+ -f foo
+ --file foo
+
+ or included in the same argument:
+
+ .. code-block:: text
+
+ -ffoo
+ --file=foo
+
+ Typically, a given option either takes an argument or it doesn't. Lots of
+ people want an "optional option arguments" feature, meaning that some options
+ will take an argument if they see it, and won't if they don't. This is
+ somewhat controversial, because it makes parsing ambiguous: if ``-a`` takes
+ an optional argument and ``-b`` is another option entirely, how do we
+ interpret ``-ab``? Because of this ambiguity, :mod:`optparse` does not
+ support this feature.
+
+positional argument
+ something leftover in the argument list after options have been parsed, i.e.
+ after options and their arguments have been parsed and removed from the
+ argument list.
+
+required option
+ an option that must be supplied on the command-line; note that the phrase
+ "required option" is self-contradictory in English. :mod:`optparse` doesn't
+ prevent you from implementing required options, but doesn't give you much
+ help at it either.
+
+For example, consider this hypothetical command-line::
+
+ prog -v --report report.txt foo bar
+
+``-v`` and ``--report`` are both options. Assuming that ``--report``
+takes one argument, ``report.txt`` is an option argument. ``foo`` and
+``bar`` are positional arguments.
+
+
+.. _optparse-what-options-for:
+
+What are options for?
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Options are used to provide extra information to tune or customize the execution
+of a program. In case it wasn't clear, options are usually *optional*. A
+program should be able to run just fine with no options whatsoever. (Pick a
+random program from the Unix or GNU toolsets. Can it run without any options at
+all and still make sense? The main exceptions are ``find``, ``tar``, and
+``dd``\ ---all of which are mutant oddballs that have been rightly criticized
+for their non-standard syntax and confusing interfaces.)
+
+Lots of people want their programs to have "required options". Think about it.
+If it's required, then it's *not optional*! If there is a piece of information
+that your program absolutely requires in order to run successfully, that's what
+positional arguments are for.
+
+As an example of good command-line interface design, consider the humble ``cp``
+utility, for copying files. It doesn't make much sense to try to copy files
+without supplying a destination and at least one source. Hence, ``cp`` fails if
+you run it with no arguments. However, it has a flexible, useful syntax that
+does not require any options at all::
+
+ cp SOURCE DEST
+ cp SOURCE ... DEST-DIR
+
+You can get pretty far with just that. Most ``cp`` implementations provide a
+bunch of options to tweak exactly how the files are copied: you can preserve
+mode and modification time, avoid following symlinks, ask before clobbering
+existing files, etc. But none of this distracts from the core mission of
+``cp``, which is to copy either one file to another, or several files to another
+directory.
+
+
+.. _optparse-what-positional-arguments-for:
+
+What are positional arguments for?
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Positional arguments are for those pieces of information that your program
+absolutely, positively requires to run.
+
+A good user interface should have as few absolute requirements as possible. If
+your program requires 17 distinct pieces of information in order to run
+successfully, it doesn't much matter *how* you get that information from the
+user---most people will give up and walk away before they successfully run the
+program. This applies whether the user interface is a command-line, a
+configuration file, or a GUI: if you make that many demands on your users, most
+of them will simply give up.
+
+In short, try to minimize the amount of information that users are absolutely
+required to supply---use sensible defaults whenever possible. Of course, you
+also want to make your programs reasonably flexible. That's what options are
+for. Again, it doesn't matter if they are entries in a config file, widgets in
+the "Preferences" dialog of a GUI, or command-line options---the more options
+you implement, the more flexible your program is, and the more complicated its
+implementation becomes. Too much flexibility has drawbacks as well, of course;
+too many options can overwhelm users and make your code much harder to maintain.
+
+
+.. _optparse-tutorial:
+
+Tutorial
+--------
+
+While :mod:`optparse` is quite flexible and powerful, it's also straightforward
+to use in most cases. This section covers the code patterns that are common to
+any :mod:`optparse`\ -based program.
+
+First, you need to import the OptionParser class; then, early in the main
+program, create an OptionParser instance::
+
+ from optparse import OptionParser
+ [...]
+ parser = OptionParser()
+
+Then you can start defining options. The basic syntax is::
+
+ parser.add_option(opt_str, ...,
+ attr=value, ...)
+
+Each option has one or more option strings, such as ``-f`` or ``--file``,
+and several option attributes that tell :mod:`optparse` what to expect and what
+to do when it encounters that option on the command line.
+
+Typically, each option will have one short option string and one long option
+string, e.g.::
+
+ parser.add_option("-f", "--file", ...)
+
+You're free to define as many short option strings and as many long option
+strings as you like (including zero), as long as there is at least one option
+string overall.
+
+The option strings passed to :meth:`OptionParser.add_option` are effectively
+labels for the
+option defined by that call. For brevity, we will frequently refer to
+*encountering an option* on the command line; in reality, :mod:`optparse`
+encounters *option strings* and looks up options from them.
+
+Once all of your options are defined, instruct :mod:`optparse` to parse your
+program's command line::
+
+ (options, args) = parser.parse_args()
+
+(If you like, you can pass a custom argument list to :meth:`parse_args`, but
+that's rarely necessary: by default it uses ``sys.argv[1:]``.)
+
+:meth:`parse_args` returns two values:
+
+* ``options``, an object containing values for all of your options---e.g. if
+ ``--file`` takes a single string argument, then ``options.file`` will be the
+ filename supplied by the user, or ``None`` if the user did not supply that
+ option
+
+* ``args``, the list of positional arguments leftover after parsing options
+
+This tutorial section only covers the four most important option attributes:
+:attr:`~Option.action`, :attr:`~Option.type`, :attr:`~Option.dest`
+(destination), and :attr:`~Option.help`. Of these, :attr:`~Option.action` is the
+most fundamental.
+
+
+.. _optparse-understanding-option-actions:
+
+Understanding option actions
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Actions tell :mod:`optparse` what to do when it encounters an option on the
+command line. There is a fixed set of actions hard-coded into :mod:`optparse`;
+adding new actions is an advanced topic covered in section
+:ref:`optparse-extending-optparse`. Most actions tell :mod:`optparse` to store
+a value in some variable---for example, take a string from the command line and
+store it in an attribute of ``options``.
+
+If you don't specify an option action, :mod:`optparse` defaults to ``store``.
+
+
+.. _optparse-store-action:
+
+The store action
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The most common option action is ``store``, which tells :mod:`optparse` to take
+the next argument (or the remainder of the current argument), ensure that it is
+of the correct type, and store it to your chosen destination.
+
+For example::
+
+ parser.add_option("-f", "--file",
+ action="store", type="string", dest="filename")
+
+Now let's make up a fake command line and ask :mod:`optparse` to parse it::
+
+ args = ["-f", "foo.txt"]
+ (options, args) = parser.parse_args(args)
+
+When :mod:`optparse` sees the option string ``-f``, it consumes the next
+argument, ``foo.txt``, and stores it in ``options.filename``. So, after this
+call to :meth:`parse_args`, ``options.filename`` is ``"foo.txt"``.
+
+Some other option types supported by :mod:`optparse` are ``int`` and ``float``.
+Here's an option that expects an integer argument::
+
+ parser.add_option("-n", type="int", dest="num")
+
+Note that this option has no long option string, which is perfectly acceptable.
+Also, there's no explicit action, since the default is ``store``.
+
+Let's parse another fake command-line. This time, we'll jam the option argument
+right up against the option: since ``-n42`` (one argument) is equivalent to
+``-n 42`` (two arguments), the code ::
+
+ (options, args) = parser.parse_args(["-n42"])
+ print options.num
+
+will print ``42``.
+
+If you don't specify a type, :mod:`optparse` assumes ``string``. Combined with
+the fact that the default action is ``store``, that means our first example can
+be a lot shorter::
+
+ parser.add_option("-f", "--file", dest="filename")
+
+If you don't supply a destination, :mod:`optparse` figures out a sensible
+default from the option strings: if the first long option string is
+``--foo-bar``, then the default destination is ``foo_bar``. If there are no
+long option strings, :mod:`optparse` looks at the first short option string: the
+default destination for ``-f`` is ``f``.
+
+:mod:`optparse` also includes built-in ``long`` and ``complex`` types. Adding
+types is covered in section :ref:`optparse-extending-optparse`.
+
+
+.. _optparse-handling-boolean-options:
+
+Handling boolean (flag) options
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Flag options---set a variable to true or false when a particular option is seen
+---are quite common. :mod:`optparse` supports them with two separate actions,
+``store_true`` and ``store_false``. For example, you might have a ``verbose``
+flag that is turned on with ``-v`` and off with ``-q``::
+
+ parser.add_option("-v", action="store_true", dest="verbose")
+ parser.add_option("-q", action="store_false", dest="verbose")
+
+Here we have two different options with the same destination, which is perfectly
+OK. (It just means you have to be a bit careful when setting default values---
+see below.)
+
+When :mod:`optparse` encounters ``-v`` on the command line, it sets
+``options.verbose`` to ``True``; when it encounters ``-q``,
+``options.verbose`` is set to ``False``.
+
+
+.. _optparse-other-actions:
+
+Other actions
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Some other actions supported by :mod:`optparse` are:
+
+``"store_const"``
+ store a constant value
+
+``"append"``
+ append this option's argument to a list
+
+``"count"``
+ increment a counter by one
+
+``"callback"``
+ call a specified function
+
+These are covered in section :ref:`optparse-reference-guide`, Reference Guide
+and section :ref:`optparse-option-callbacks`.
+
+
+.. _optparse-default-values:
+
+Default values
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+All of the above examples involve setting some variable (the "destination") when
+certain command-line options are seen. What happens if those options are never
+seen? Since we didn't supply any defaults, they are all set to ``None``. This
+is usually fine, but sometimes you want more control. :mod:`optparse` lets you
+supply a default value for each destination, which is assigned before the
+command line is parsed.
+
+First, consider the verbose/quiet example. If we want :mod:`optparse` to set
+``verbose`` to ``True`` unless ``-q`` is seen, then we can do this::
+
+ parser.add_option("-v", action="store_true", dest="verbose", default=True)
+ parser.add_option("-q", action="store_false", dest="verbose")
+
+Since default values apply to the *destination* rather than to any particular
+option, and these two options happen to have the same destination, this is
+exactly equivalent::
+
+ parser.add_option("-v", action="store_true", dest="verbose")
+ parser.add_option("-q", action="store_false", dest="verbose", default=True)
+
+Consider this::
+
+ parser.add_option("-v", action="store_true", dest="verbose", default=False)
+ parser.add_option("-q", action="store_false", dest="verbose", default=True)
+
+Again, the default value for ``verbose`` will be ``True``: the last default
+value supplied for any particular destination is the one that counts.
+
+A clearer way to specify default values is the :meth:`set_defaults` method of
+OptionParser, which you can call at any time before calling :meth:`parse_args`::
+
+ parser.set_defaults(verbose=True)
+ parser.add_option(...)
+ (options, args) = parser.parse_args()
+
+As before, the last value specified for a given option destination is the one
+that counts. For clarity, try to use one method or the other of setting default
+values, not both.
+
+
+.. _optparse-generating-help:
+
+Generating help
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+:mod:`optparse`'s ability to generate help and usage text automatically is
+useful for creating user-friendly command-line interfaces. All you have to do
+is supply a :attr:`~Option.help` value for each option, and optionally a short
+usage message for your whole program. Here's an OptionParser populated with
+user-friendly (documented) options::
+
+ usage = "usage: %prog [options] arg1 arg2"
+ parser = OptionParser(usage=usage)
+ parser.add_option("-v", "--verbose",
+ action="store_true", dest="verbose", default=True,
+ help="make lots of noise [default]")
+ parser.add_option("-q", "--quiet",
+ action="store_false", dest="verbose",
+ help="be vewwy quiet (I'm hunting wabbits)")
+ parser.add_option("-f", "--filename",
+ metavar="FILE", help="write output to FILE")
+ parser.add_option("-m", "--mode",
+ default="intermediate",
+ help="interaction mode: novice, intermediate, "
+ "or expert [default: %default]")
+
+If :mod:`optparse` encounters either ``-h`` or ``--help`` on the
+command-line, or if you just call :meth:`parser.print_help`, it prints the
+following to standard output:
+
+.. code-block:: text
+
+ Usage: <yourscript> [options] arg1 arg2
+
+ Options:
+ -h, --help show this help message and exit
+ -v, --verbose make lots of noise [default]
+ -q, --quiet be vewwy quiet (I'm hunting wabbits)
+ -f FILE, --filename=FILE
+ write output to FILE
+ -m MODE, --mode=MODE interaction mode: novice, intermediate, or
+ expert [default: intermediate]
+
+(If the help output is triggered by a help option, :mod:`optparse` exits after
+printing the help text.)
+
+There's a lot going on here to help :mod:`optparse` generate the best possible
+help message:
+
+* the script defines its own usage message::
+
+ usage = "usage: %prog [options] arg1 arg2"
+
+ :mod:`optparse` expands ``%prog`` in the usage string to the name of the
+ current program, i.e. ``os.path.basename(sys.argv[0])``. The expanded string
+ is then printed before the detailed option help.
+
+ If you don't supply a usage string, :mod:`optparse` uses a bland but sensible
+ default: ``"Usage: %prog [options]"``, which is fine if your script doesn't
+ take any positional arguments.
+
+* every option defines a help string, and doesn't worry about line-wrapping---
+ :mod:`optparse` takes care of wrapping lines and making the help output look
+ good.
+
+* options that take a value indicate this fact in their automatically-generated
+ help message, e.g. for the "mode" option::
+
+ -m MODE, --mode=MODE
+
+ Here, "MODE" is called the meta-variable: it stands for the argument that the
+ user is expected to supply to ``-m``/``--mode``. By default,
+ :mod:`optparse` converts the destination variable name to uppercase and uses
+ that for the meta-variable. Sometimes, that's not what you want---for
+ example, the ``--filename`` option explicitly sets ``metavar="FILE"``,
+ resulting in this automatically-generated option description::
+
+ -f FILE, --filename=FILE
+
+ This is important for more than just saving space, though: the manually
+ written help text uses the meta-variable ``FILE`` to clue the user in that
+ there's a connection between the semi-formal syntax ``-f FILE`` and the informal
+ semantic description "write output to FILE". This is a simple but effective
+ way to make your help text a lot clearer and more useful for end users.
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.4
+ Options that have a default value can include ``%default`` in the help
+ string---\ :mod:`optparse` will replace it with :func:`str` of the option's
+ default value. If an option has no default value (or the default value is
+ ``None``), ``%default`` expands to ``none``.
+
+Grouping Options
+++++++++++++++++
+
+When dealing with many options, it is convenient to group these options for
+better help output. An :class:`OptionParser` can contain several option groups,
+each of which can contain several options.
+
+An option group is obtained using the class :class:`OptionGroup`:
+
+.. class:: OptionGroup(parser, title, description=None)
+
+ where
+
+ * parser is the :class:`OptionParser` instance the group will be insterted in
+ to
+ * title is the group title
+ * description, optional, is a long description of the group
+
+:class:`OptionGroup` inherits from :class:`OptionContainer` (like
+:class:`OptionParser`) and so the :meth:`add_option` method can be used to add
+an option to the group.
+
+Once all the options are declared, using the :class:`OptionParser` method
+:meth:`add_option_group` the group is added to the previously defined parser.
+
+Continuing with the parser defined in the previous section, adding an
+:class:`OptionGroup` to a parser is easy::
+
+ group = OptionGroup(parser, "Dangerous Options",
+ "Caution: use these options at your own risk. "
+ "It is believed that some of them bite.")
+ group.add_option("-g", action="store_true", help="Group option.")
+ parser.add_option_group(group)
+
+This would result in the following help output:
+
+.. code-block:: text
+
+ Usage: <yourscript> [options] arg1 arg2
+
+ Options:
+ -h, --help show this help message and exit
+ -v, --verbose make lots of noise [default]
+ -q, --quiet be vewwy quiet (I'm hunting wabbits)
+ -f FILE, --filename=FILE
+ write output to FILE
+ -m MODE, --mode=MODE interaction mode: novice, intermediate, or
+ expert [default: intermediate]
+
+ Dangerous Options:
+ Caution: use these options at your own risk. It is believed that some
+ of them bite.
+
+ -g Group option.
+
+A bit more complete example might involve using more than one group: still
+extending the previous example::
+
+ group = OptionGroup(parser, "Dangerous Options",
+ "Caution: use these options at your own risk. "
+ "It is believed that some of them bite.")
+ group.add_option("-g", action="store_true", help="Group option.")
+ parser.add_option_group(group)
+
+ group = OptionGroup(parser, "Debug Options")
+ group.add_option("-d", "--debug", action="store_true",
+ help="Print debug information")
+ group.add_option("-s", "--sql", action="store_true",
+ help="Print all SQL statements executed")
+ group.add_option("-e", action="store_true", help="Print every action done")
+ parser.add_option_group(group)
+
+that results in the following output:
+
+.. code-block:: text
+
+ Usage: <yourscript> [options] arg1 arg2
+
+ Options:
+ -h, --help show this help message and exit
+ -v, --verbose make lots of noise [default]
+ -q, --quiet be vewwy quiet (I'm hunting wabbits)
+ -f FILE, --filename=FILE
+ write output to FILE
+ -m MODE, --mode=MODE interaction mode: novice, intermediate, or expert
+ [default: intermediate]
+
+ Dangerous Options:
+ Caution: use these options at your own risk. It is believed that some
+ of them bite.
+
+ -g Group option.
+
+ Debug Options:
+ -d, --debug Print debug information
+ -s, --sql Print all SQL statements executed
+ -e Print every action done
+
+Another interesting method, in particular when working programmatically with
+option groups is:
+
+.. method:: OptionParser.get_option_group(opt_str)
+
+ Return the :class:`OptionGroup` to which the short or long option
+ string *opt_str* (e.g. ``'-o'`` or ``'--option'``) belongs. If
+ there's no such :class:`OptionGroup`, return ``None``.
+
+.. _optparse-printing-version-string:
+
+Printing a version string
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Similar to the brief usage string, :mod:`optparse` can also print a version
+string for your program. You have to supply the string as the ``version``
+argument to OptionParser::
+
+ parser = OptionParser(usage="%prog [-f] [-q]", version="%prog 1.0")
+
+``%prog`` is expanded just like it is in ``usage``. Apart from that,
+``version`` can contain anything you like. When you supply it, :mod:`optparse`
+automatically adds a ``--version`` option to your parser. If it encounters
+this option on the command line, it expands your ``version`` string (by
+replacing ``%prog``), prints it to stdout, and exits.
+
+For example, if your script is called ``/usr/bin/foo``::
+
+ $ /usr/bin/foo --version
+ foo 1.0
+
+The following two methods can be used to print and get the ``version`` string:
+
+.. method:: OptionParser.print_version(file=None)
+
+ Print the version message for the current program (``self.version``) to
+ *file* (default stdout). As with :meth:`print_usage`, any occurrence
+ of ``%prog`` in ``self.version`` is replaced with the name of the current
+ program. Does nothing if ``self.version`` is empty or undefined.
+
+.. method:: OptionParser.get_version()
+
+ Same as :meth:`print_version` but returns the version string instead of
+ printing it.
+
+
+.. _optparse-how-optparse-handles-errors:
+
+How :mod:`optparse` handles errors
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+There are two broad classes of errors that :mod:`optparse` has to worry about:
+programmer errors and user errors. Programmer errors are usually erroneous
+calls to :func:`OptionParser.add_option`, e.g. invalid option strings, unknown
+option attributes, missing option attributes, etc. These are dealt with in the
+usual way: raise an exception (either :exc:`optparse.OptionError` or
+:exc:`TypeError`) and let the program crash.
+
+Handling user errors is much more important, since they are guaranteed to happen
+no matter how stable your code is. :mod:`optparse` can automatically detect
+some user errors, such as bad option arguments (passing ``-n 4x`` where
+``-n`` takes an integer argument), missing arguments (``-n`` at the end
+of the command line, where ``-n`` takes an argument of any type). Also,
+you can call :func:`OptionParser.error` to signal an application-defined error
+condition::
+
+ (options, args) = parser.parse_args()
+ [...]
+ if options.a and options.b:
+ parser.error("options -a and -b are mutually exclusive")
+
+In either case, :mod:`optparse` handles the error the same way: it prints the
+program's usage message and an error message to standard error and exits with
+error status 2.
+
+Consider the first example above, where the user passes ``4x`` to an option
+that takes an integer::
+
+ $ /usr/bin/foo -n 4x
+ Usage: foo [options]
+
+ foo: error: option -n: invalid integer value: '4x'
+
+Or, where the user fails to pass a value at all::
+
+ $ /usr/bin/foo -n
+ Usage: foo [options]
+
+ foo: error: -n option requires an argument
+
+:mod:`optparse`\ -generated error messages take care always to mention the
+option involved in the error; be sure to do the same when calling
+:func:`OptionParser.error` from your application code.
+
+If :mod:`optparse`'s default error-handling behaviour does not suit your needs,
+you'll need to subclass OptionParser and override its :meth:`~OptionParser.exit`
+and/or :meth:`~OptionParser.error` methods.
+
+
+.. _optparse-putting-it-all-together:
+
+Putting it all together
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Here's what :mod:`optparse`\ -based scripts usually look like::
+
+ from optparse import OptionParser
+ [...]
+ def main():
+ usage = "usage: %prog [options] arg"
+ parser = OptionParser(usage)
+ parser.add_option("-f", "--file", dest="filename",
+ help="read data from FILENAME")
+ parser.add_option("-v", "--verbose",
+ action="store_true", dest="verbose")
+ parser.add_option("-q", "--quiet",
+ action="store_false", dest="verbose")
+ [...]
+ (options, args) = parser.parse_args()
+ if len(args) != 1:
+ parser.error("incorrect number of arguments")
+ if options.verbose:
+ print "reading %s..." % options.filename
+ [...]
+
+ if __name__ == "__main__":
+ main()

+
+Reference Guide
+---------------
+
+
+.. _optparse-creating-parser:
+
+Creating the parser
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The first step in using :mod:`optparse` is to create an OptionParser instance.
+
+.. class:: OptionParser(...)
+
+ The OptionParser constructor has no required arguments, but a number of
+ optional keyword arguments. You should always pass them as keyword
+ arguments, i.e. do not rely on the order in which the arguments are declared.
+
+ ``usage`` (default: ``"%prog [options]"``)
+ The usage summary to print when your program is run incorrectly or with a
+ help option. When :mod:`optparse` prints the usage string, it expands
+ ``%prog`` to ``os.path.basename(sys.argv[0])`` (or to ``prog`` if you
+ passed that keyword argument). To suppress a usage message, pass the
+ special value :data:`optparse.SUPPRESS_USAGE`.
+
+ ``option_list`` (default: ``[]``)
+ A list of Option objects to populate the parser with. The options in
+ ``option_list`` are added after any options in ``standard_option_list`` (a
+ class attribute that may be set by OptionParser subclasses), but before
+ any version or help options. Deprecated; use :meth:`add_option` after
+ creating the parser instead.
+
+ ``option_class`` (default: optparse.Option)
+ Class to use when adding options to the parser in :meth:`add_option`.
+
+ ``version`` (default: ``None``)
+ A version string to print when the user supplies a version option. If you
+ supply a true value for ``version``, :mod:`optparse` automatically adds a
+ version option with the single option string ``--version``. The
+ substring ``%prog`` is expanded the same as for ``usage``.
+
+ ``conflict_handler`` (default: ``"error"``)
+ Specifies what to do when options with conflicting option strings are
+ added to the parser; see section
+ :ref:`optparse-conflicts-between-options`.
+
+ ``description`` (default: ``None``)
+ A paragraph of text giving a brief overview of your program.
+ :mod:`optparse` reformats this paragraph to fit the current terminal width
+ and prints it when the user requests help (after ``usage``, but before the
+ list of options).
+
+ ``formatter`` (default: a new :class:`IndentedHelpFormatter`)
+ An instance of optparse.HelpFormatter that will be used for printing help
+ text. :mod:`optparse` provides two concrete classes for this purpose:
+ IndentedHelpFormatter and TitledHelpFormatter.
+
+ ``add_help_option`` (default: ``True``)
+ If true, :mod:`optparse` will add a help option (with option strings ``-h``
+ and ``--help``) to the parser.
+
+ ``prog``
+ The string to use when expanding ``%prog`` in ``usage`` and ``version``
+ instead of ``os.path.basename(sys.argv[0])``.
+
+ ``epilog`` (default: ``None``)
+ A paragraph of help text to print after the option help.
+
+.. _optparse-populating-parser:
+
+Populating the parser
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+There are several ways to populate the parser with options. The preferred way
+is by using :meth:`OptionParser.add_option`, as shown in section
+:ref:`optparse-tutorial`. :meth:`add_option` can be called in one of two ways:
+
+* pass it an Option instance (as returned by :func:`make_option`)
+
+* pass it any combination of positional and keyword arguments that are
+ acceptable to :func:`make_option` (i.e., to the Option constructor), and it
+ will create the Option instance for you
+
+The other alternative is to pass a list of pre-constructed Option instances to
+the OptionParser constructor, as in::
+
+ option_list = [
+ make_option("-f", "--filename",
+ action="store", type="string", dest="filename"),
+ make_option("-q", "--quiet",
+ action="store_false", dest="verbose"),
+ ]
+ parser = OptionParser(option_list=option_list)
+
+(:func:`make_option` is a factory function for creating Option instances;
+currently it is an alias for the Option constructor. A future version of
+:mod:`optparse` may split Option into several classes, and :func:`make_option`
+will pick the right class to instantiate. Do not instantiate Option directly.)
+
+
+.. _optparse-defining-options:
+
+Defining options
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Each Option instance represents a set of synonymous command-line option strings,
+e.g. ``-f`` and ``--file``. You can specify any number of short or
+long option strings, but you must specify at least one overall option string.
+
+The canonical way to create an :class:`Option` instance is with the
+:meth:`add_option` method of :class:`OptionParser`.
+
+.. method:: OptionParser.add_option(option)
+ OptionParser.add_option(*opt_str, attr=value, ...)
+
+ To define an option with only a short option string::
+
+ parser.add_option("-f", attr=value, ...)
+
+ And to define an option with only a long option string::
+
+ parser.add_option("--foo", attr=value, ...)
+
+ The keyword arguments define attributes of the new Option object. The most
+ important option attribute is :attr:`~Option.action`, and it largely
+ determines which other attributes are relevant or required. If you pass
+ irrelevant option attributes, or fail to pass required ones, :mod:`optparse`
+ raises an :exc:`OptionError` exception explaining your mistake.
+
+ An option's *action* determines what :mod:`optparse` does when it encounters
+ this option on the command-line. The standard option actions hard-coded into
+ :mod:`optparse` are:
+
+ ``"store"``
+ store this option's argument (default)
+
+ ``"store_const"``
+ store a constant value
+
+ ``"store_true"``
+ store a true value
+
+ ``"store_false"``
+ store a false value
+
+ ``"append"``
+ append this option's argument to a list
+
+ ``"append_const"``
+ append a constant value to a list
+
+ ``"count"``
+ increment a counter by one
+
+ ``"callback"``
+ call a specified function
+
+ ``"help"``
+ print a usage message including all options and the documentation for them
+
+ (If you don't supply an action, the default is ``"store"``. For this action,
+ you may also supply :attr:`~Option.type` and :attr:`~Option.dest` option
+ attributes; see :ref:`optparse-standard-option-actions`.)
+
+As you can see, most actions involve storing or updating a value somewhere.
+:mod:`optparse` always creates a special object for this, conventionally called
+``options`` (it happens to be an instance of :class:`optparse.Values`). Option
+arguments (and various other values) are stored as attributes of this object,
+according to the :attr:`~Option.dest` (destination) option attribute.
+
+For example, when you call ::
+
+ parser.parse_args()
+
+one of the first things :mod:`optparse` does is create the ``options`` object::
+
+ options = Values()
+
+If one of the options in this parser is defined with ::
+
+ parser.add_option("-f", "--file", action="store", type="string", dest="filename")
+
+and the command-line being parsed includes any of the following::
+
+ -ffoo
+ -f foo
+ --file=foo
+ --file foo
+
+then :mod:`optparse`, on seeing this option, will do the equivalent of ::
+
+ options.filename = "foo"
+
+The :attr:`~Option.type` and :attr:`~Option.dest` option attributes are almost
+as important as :attr:`~Option.action`, but :attr:`~Option.action` is the only
+one that makes sense for *all* options.
+
+
+.. _optparse-option-attributes:
+
+Option attributes
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The following option attributes may be passed as keyword arguments to
+:meth:`OptionParser.add_option`. If you pass an option attribute that is not
+relevant to a particular option, or fail to pass a required option attribute,
+:mod:`optparse` raises :exc:`OptionError`.
+
+.. attribute:: Option.action
+
+ (default: ``"store"``)
+
+ Determines :mod:`optparse`'s behaviour when this option is seen on the
+ command line; the available options are documented :ref:`here
+ <optparse-standard-option-actions>`.
+
+.. attribute:: Option.type
+
+ (default: ``"string"``)
+
+ The argument type expected by this option (e.g., ``"string"`` or ``"int"``);
+ the available option types are documented :ref:`here
+ <optparse-standard-option-types>`.
+
+.. attribute:: Option.dest
+
+ (default: derived from option strings)
+
+ If the option's action implies writing or modifying a value somewhere, this
+ tells :mod:`optparse` where to write it: :attr:`~Option.dest` names an
+ attribute of the ``options`` object that :mod:`optparse` builds as it parses
+ the command line.
+
+.. attribute:: Option.default
+
+ The value to use for this option's destination if the option is not seen on
+ the command line. See also :meth:`OptionParser.set_defaults`.
+
+.. attribute:: Option.nargs
+
+ (default: 1)
+
+ How many arguments of type :attr:`~Option.type` should be consumed when this
+ option is seen. If > 1, :mod:`optparse` will store a tuple of values to
+ :attr:`~Option.dest`.
+
+.. attribute:: Option.const
+
+ For actions that store a constant value, the constant value to store.
+
+.. attribute:: Option.choices
+
+ For options of type ``"choice"``, the list of strings the user may choose
+ from.
+
+.. attribute:: Option.callback
+
+ For options with action ``"callback"``, the callable to call when this option
+ is seen. See section :ref:`optparse-option-callbacks` for detail on the
+ arguments passed to the callable.
+
+.. attribute:: Option.callback_args
+ Option.callback_kwargs
+
+ Additional positional and keyword arguments to pass to ``callback`` after the
+ four standard callback arguments.
+
+.. attribute:: Option.help
+
+ Help text to print for this option when listing all available options after
+ the user supplies a :attr:`~Option.help` option (such as ``--help``). If
+ no help text is supplied, the option will be listed without help text. To
+ hide this option, use the special value :data:`optparse.SUPPRESS_HELP`.
+
+.. attribute:: Option.metavar
+
+ (default: derived from option strings)
+
+ Stand-in for the option argument(s) to use when printing help text. See
+ section :ref:`optparse-tutorial` for an example.
+
+
+.. _optparse-standard-option-actions:
+
+Standard option actions
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The various option actions all have slightly different requirements and effects.
+Most actions have several relevant option attributes which you may specify to
+guide :mod:`optparse`'s behaviour; a few have required attributes, which you
+must specify for any option using that action.
+
+* ``"store"`` [relevant: :attr:`~Option.type`, :attr:`~Option.dest`,
+ :attr:`~Option.nargs`, :attr:`~Option.choices`]
+
+ The option must be followed by an argument, which is converted to a value
+ according to :attr:`~Option.type` and stored in :attr:`~Option.dest`. If
+ :attr:`~Option.nargs` > 1, multiple arguments will be consumed from the
+ command line; all will be converted according to :attr:`~Option.type` and
+ stored to :attr:`~Option.dest` as a tuple. See the
+ :ref:`optparse-standard-option-types` section.
+
+ If :attr:`~Option.choices` is supplied (a list or tuple of strings), the type
+ defaults to ``"choice"``.
+
+ If :attr:`~Option.type` is not supplied, it defaults to ``"string"``.
+
+ If :attr:`~Option.dest` is not supplied, :mod:`optparse` derives a destination
+ from the first long option string (e.g., ``--foo-bar`` implies
+ ``foo_bar``). If there are no long option strings, :mod:`optparse` derives a
+ destination from the first short option string (e.g., ``-f`` implies ``f``).
+
+ Example::
+
+ parser.add_option("-f")
+ parser.add_option("-p", type="float", nargs=3, dest="point")
+
+ As it parses the command line ::
+
+ -f foo.txt -p 1 -3.5 4 -fbar.txt
+
+ :mod:`optparse` will set ::
+
+ options.f = "foo.txt"
+ options.point = (1.0, -3.5, 4.0)
+ options.f = "bar.txt"
+
+* ``"store_const"`` [required: :attr:`~Option.const`; relevant:
+ :attr:`~Option.dest`]
+
+ The value :attr:`~Option.const` is stored in :attr:`~Option.dest`.
+
+ Example::
+
+ parser.add_option("-q", "--quiet",
+ action="store_const", const=0, dest="verbose")
+ parser.add_option("-v", "--verbose",
+ action="store_const", const=1, dest="verbose")
+ parser.add_option("--noisy",
+ action="store_const", const=2, dest="verbose")
+
+ If ``--noisy`` is seen, :mod:`optparse` will set ::
+
+ options.verbose = 2
+
+* ``"store_true"`` [relevant: :attr:`~Option.dest`]
+
+ A special case of ``"store_const"`` that stores a true value to
+ :attr:`~Option.dest`.
+
+* ``"store_false"`` [relevant: :attr:`~Option.dest`]
+
+ Like ``"store_true"``, but stores a false value.
+
+ Example::
+
+ parser.add_option("--clobber", action="store_true", dest="clobber")
+ parser.add_option("--no-clobber", action="store_false", dest="clobber")
+
+* ``"append"`` [relevant: :attr:`~Option.type`, :attr:`~Option.dest`,
+ :attr:`~Option.nargs`, :attr:`~Option.choices`]
+
+ The option must be followed by an argument, which is appended to the list in
+ :attr:`~Option.dest`. If no default value for :attr:`~Option.dest` is
+ supplied, an empty list is automatically created when :mod:`optparse` first
+ encounters this option on the command-line. If :attr:`~Option.nargs` > 1,
+ multiple arguments are consumed, and a tuple of length :attr:`~Option.nargs`
+ is appended to :attr:`~Option.dest`.
+
+ The defaults for :attr:`~Option.type` and :attr:`~Option.dest` are the same as
+ for the ``"store"`` action.
+
+ Example::
+
+ parser.add_option("-t", "--tracks", action="append", type="int")
+
+ If ``-t3`` is seen on the command-line, :mod:`optparse` does the equivalent
+ of::
+
+ options.tracks = []
+ options.tracks.append(int("3"))
+
+ If, a little later on, ``--tracks=4`` is seen, it does::
+
+ options.tracks.append(int("4"))
+
+ The ``append`` action calls the ``append`` method on the current value of the
+ option. This means that any default value specified must have an ``append``
+ method. It also means that if the default value is non-empty, the default
+ elements will be present in the parsed value for the option, with any values
+ from the command line appended after those default values::
+
+ >>> parser.add_option("--files", action="append", default=['~/.mypkg/defaults'])
+ >>> opts, args = parser.parse_args(['--files', 'overrides.mypkg'])
+ >>> opts.files
+ ['~/.mypkg/defaults', 'overrides.mypkg']
+
+* ``"append_const"`` [required: :attr:`~Option.const`; relevant:
+ :attr:`~Option.dest`]
+
+ Like ``"store_const"``, but the value :attr:`~Option.const` is appended to
+ :attr:`~Option.dest`; as with ``"append"``, :attr:`~Option.dest` defaults to
+ ``None``, and an empty list is automatically created the first time the option
+ is encountered.
+
+* ``"count"`` [relevant: :attr:`~Option.dest`]
+
+ Increment the integer stored at :attr:`~Option.dest`. If no default value is
+ supplied, :attr:`~Option.dest` is set to zero before being incremented the
+ first time.
+
+ Example::
+
+ parser.add_option("-v", action="count", dest="verbosity")
+
+ The first time ``-v`` is seen on the command line, :mod:`optparse` does the
+ equivalent of::
+
+ options.verbosity = 0
+ options.verbosity += 1
+
+ Every subsequent occurrence of ``-v`` results in ::
+
+ options.verbosity += 1
+
+* ``"callback"`` [required: :attr:`~Option.callback`; relevant:
+ :attr:`~Option.type`, :attr:`~Option.nargs`, :attr:`~Option.callback_args`,
+ :attr:`~Option.callback_kwargs`]
+
+ Call the function specified by :attr:`~Option.callback`, which is called as ::
+
+ func(option, opt_str, value, parser, *args, **kwargs)
+
+ See section :ref:`optparse-option-callbacks` for more detail.
+
+* ``"help"``
+
+ Prints a complete help message for all the options in the current option
+ parser. The help message is constructed from the ``usage`` string passed to
+ OptionParser's constructor and the :attr:`~Option.help` string passed to every
+ option.
+
+ If no :attr:`~Option.help` string is supplied for an option, it will still be
+ listed in the help message. To omit an option entirely, use the special value
+ :data:`optparse.SUPPRESS_HELP`.
+
+ :mod:`optparse` automatically adds a :attr:`~Option.help` option to all
+ OptionParsers, so you do not normally need to create one.
+
+ Example::
+
+ from optparse import OptionParser, SUPPRESS_HELP
+
+ # usually, a help option is added automatically, but that can
+ # be suppressed using the add_help_option argument
+ parser = OptionParser(add_help_option=False)
+
+ parser.add_option("-h", "--help", action="help")
+ parser.add_option("-v", action="store_true", dest="verbose",
+ help="Be moderately verbose")
+ parser.add_option("--file", dest="filename",
+ help="Input file to read data from")
+ parser.add_option("--secret", help=SUPPRESS_HELP)
+
+ If :mod:`optparse` sees either ``-h`` or ``--help`` on the command line,
+ it will print something like the following help message to stdout (assuming
+ ``sys.argv[0]`` is ``"foo.py"``):
+
+ .. code-block:: text
+
+ Usage: foo.py [options]
+
+ Options:
+ -h, --help Show this help message and exit
+ -v Be moderately verbose
+ --file=FILENAME Input file to read data from
+
+ After printing the help message, :mod:`optparse` terminates your process with
+ ``sys.exit(0)``.
+
+* ``"version"``
+
+ Prints the version number supplied to the OptionParser to stdout and exits.
+ The version number is actually formatted and printed by the
+ ``print_version()`` method of OptionParser. Generally only relevant if the
+ ``version`` argument is supplied to the OptionParser constructor. As with
+ :attr:`~Option.help` options, you will rarely create ``version`` options,
+ since :mod:`optparse` automatically adds them when needed.
+
+
+.. _optparse-standard-option-types:
+
+Standard option types
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+:mod:`optparse` has six built-in option types: ``"string"``, ``"int"``,
+``"long"``, ``"choice"``, ``"float"`` and ``"complex"``. If you need to add new
+option types, see section :ref:`optparse-extending-optparse`.
+
+Arguments to string options are not checked or converted in any way: the text on
+the command line is stored in the destination (or passed to the callback) as-is.
+
+Integer arguments (type ``"int"`` or ``"long"``) are parsed as follows:
+
+* if the number starts with ``0x``, it is parsed as a hexadecimal number
+
+* if the number starts with ``0``, it is parsed as an octal number
+
+* if the number starts with ``0b``, it is parsed as a binary number
+
+* otherwise, the number is parsed as a decimal number
+
+
+The conversion is done by calling either :func:`int` or :func:`long` with the
+appropriate base (2, 8, 10, or 16). If this fails, so will :mod:`optparse`,
+although with a more useful error message.
+
+``"float"`` and ``"complex"`` option arguments are converted directly with
+:func:`float` and :func:`complex`, with similar error-handling.
+
+``"choice"`` options are a subtype of ``"string"`` options. The
+:attr:`~Option.choices` option attribute (a sequence of strings) defines the
+set of allowed option arguments. :func:`optparse.check_choice` compares
+user-supplied option arguments against this master list and raises
+:exc:`OptionValueError` if an invalid string is given.
+
+
+.. _optparse-parsing-arguments:
+
+Parsing arguments
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The whole point of creating and populating an OptionParser is to call its
+:meth:`parse_args` method::
+
+ (options, args) = parser.parse_args(args=None, values=None)
+
+where the input parameters are
+
+``args``
+ the list of arguments to process (default: ``sys.argv[1:]``)
+
+``values``
+ a :class:`optparse.Values` object to store option arguments in (default: a
+ new instance of :class:`Values`) -- if you give an existing object, the
+ option defaults will not be initialized on it
+
+and the return values are
+
+``options``
+ the same object that was passed in as ``values``, or the optparse.Values
+ instance created by :mod:`optparse`
+
+``args``
+ the leftover positional arguments after all options have been processed
+
+The most common usage is to supply neither keyword argument. If you supply
+``values``, it will be modified with repeated :func:`setattr` calls (roughly one
+for every option argument stored to an option destination) and returned by
+:meth:`parse_args`.
+
+If :meth:`parse_args` encounters any errors in the argument list, it calls the
+OptionParser's :meth:`error` method with an appropriate end-user error message.
+This ultimately terminates your process with an exit status of 2 (the
+traditional Unix exit status for command-line errors).
+
+
+.. _optparse-querying-manipulating-option-parser:
+
+Querying and manipulating your option parser
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The default behavior of the option parser can be customized slightly, and you
+can also poke around your option parser and see what's there. OptionParser
+provides several methods to help you out:
+
+.. method:: OptionParser.disable_interspersed_args()
+
+ Set parsing to stop on the first non-option. For example, if ``-a`` and
+ ``-b`` are both simple options that take no arguments, :mod:`optparse`
+ normally accepts this syntax::
+
+ prog -a arg1 -b arg2
+
+ and treats it as equivalent to ::
+
+ prog -a -b arg1 arg2
+
+ To disable this feature, call :meth:`disable_interspersed_args`. This
+ restores traditional Unix syntax, where option parsing stops with the first
+ non-option argument.
+
+ Use this if you have a command processor which runs another command which has
+ options of its own and you want to make sure these options don't get
+ confused. For example, each command might have a different set of options.
+
+.. method:: OptionParser.enable_interspersed_args()
+
+ Set parsing to not stop on the first non-option, allowing interspersing
+ switches with command arguments. This is the default behavior.
+
+.. method:: OptionParser.get_option(opt_str)
+
+ Returns the Option instance with the option string *opt_str*, or ``None`` if
+ no options have that option string.
+
+.. method:: OptionParser.has_option(opt_str)
+
+ Return true if the OptionParser has an option with option string *opt_str*
+ (e.g., ``-q`` or ``--verbose``).
+
+.. method:: OptionParser.remove_option(opt_str)
+
+ If the :class:`OptionParser` has an option corresponding to *opt_str*, that
+ option is removed. If that option provided any other option strings, all of
+ those option strings become invalid. If *opt_str* does not occur in any
+ option belonging to this :class:`OptionParser`, raises :exc:`ValueError`.
+
+
+.. _optparse-conflicts-between-options:
+
+Conflicts between options
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+If you're not careful, it's easy to define options with conflicting option
+strings::
+
+ parser.add_option("-n", "--dry-run", ...)
+ [...]
+ parser.add_option("-n", "--noisy", ...)
+
+(This is particularly true if you've defined your own OptionParser subclass with
+some standard options.)
+
+Every time you add an option, :mod:`optparse` checks for conflicts with existing
+options. If it finds any, it invokes the current conflict-handling mechanism.
+You can set the conflict-handling mechanism either in the constructor::
+
+ parser = OptionParser(..., conflict_handler=handler)
+
+or with a separate call::
+
+ parser.set_conflict_handler(handler)
+
+The available conflict handlers are:
+
+ ``"error"`` (default)
+ assume option conflicts are a programming error and raise
+ :exc:`OptionConflictError`
+
+ ``"resolve"``
+ resolve option conflicts intelligently (see below)
+
+
+As an example, let's define an :class:`OptionParser` that resolves conflicts
+intelligently and add conflicting options to it::
+
+ parser = OptionParser(conflict_handler="resolve")
+ parser.add_option("-n", "--dry-run", ..., help="do no harm")
+ parser.add_option("-n", "--noisy", ..., help="be noisy")
+
+At this point, :mod:`optparse` detects that a previously-added option is already
+using the ``-n`` option string. Since ``conflict_handler`` is ``"resolve"``,
+it resolves the situation by removing ``-n`` from the earlier option's list of
+option strings. Now ``--dry-run`` is the only way for the user to activate
+that option. If the user asks for help, the help message will reflect that::
+
+ Options:
+ --dry-run do no harm
+ [...]
+ -n, --noisy be noisy
+
+It's possible to whittle away the option strings for a previously-added option
+until there are none left, and the user has no way of invoking that option from
+the command-line. In that case, :mod:`optparse` removes that option completely,
+so it doesn't show up in help text or anywhere else. Carrying on with our
+existing OptionParser::
+
+ parser.add_option("--dry-run", ..., help="new dry-run option")
+
+At this point, the original ``-n``/``--dry-run`` option is no longer
+accessible, so :mod:`optparse` removes it, leaving this help text::
+
+ Options:
+ [...]
+ -n, --noisy be noisy
+ --dry-run new dry-run option
+
+
+.. _optparse-cleanup:
+
+Cleanup
+^^^^^^^
+
+OptionParser instances have several cyclic references. This should not be a
+problem for Python's garbage collector, but you may wish to break the cyclic
+references explicitly by calling :meth:`~OptionParser.destroy` on your
+OptionParser once you are done with it. This is particularly useful in
+long-running applications where large object graphs are reachable from your
+OptionParser.
+
+
+.. _optparse-other-methods:
+
+Other methods
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+OptionParser supports several other public methods:
+
+.. method:: OptionParser.set_usage(usage)
+
+ Set the usage string according to the rules described above for the ``usage``
+ constructor keyword argument. Passing ``None`` sets the default usage
+ string; use :data:`optparse.SUPPRESS_USAGE` to suppress a usage message.
+
+.. method:: OptionParser.print_usage(file=None)
+
+ Print the usage message for the current program (``self.usage``) to *file*
+ (default stdout). Any occurrence of the string ``%prog`` in ``self.usage``
+ is replaced with the name of the current program. Does nothing if
+ ``self.usage`` is empty or not defined.
+
+.. method:: OptionParser.get_usage()
+
+ Same as :meth:`print_usage` but returns the usage string instead of
+ printing it.
+
+.. method:: OptionParser.set_defaults(dest=value, ...)
+
+ Set default values for several option destinations at once. Using
+ :meth:`set_defaults` is the preferred way to set default values for options,
+ since multiple options can share the same destination. For example, if
+ several "mode" options all set the same destination, any one of them can set
+ the default, and the last one wins::
+
+ parser.add_option("--advanced", action="store_const",
+ dest="mode", const="advanced",
+ default="novice") # overridden below
+ parser.add_option("--novice", action="store_const",
+ dest="mode", const="novice",
+ default="advanced") # overrides above setting
+
+ To avoid this confusion, use :meth:`set_defaults`::
+
+ parser.set_defaults(mode="advanced")
+ parser.add_option("--advanced", action="store_const",
+ dest="mode", const="advanced")
+ parser.add_option("--novice", action="store_const",
+ dest="mode", const="novice")
+
+
+.. _optparse-option-callbacks:
+
+Option Callbacks
+----------------
+
+When :mod:`optparse`'s built-in actions and types aren't quite enough for your
+needs, you have two choices: extend :mod:`optparse` or define a callback option.
+Extending :mod:`optparse` is more general, but overkill for a lot of simple
+cases. Quite often a simple callback is all you need.
+
+There are two steps to defining a callback option:
+
+* define the option itself using the ``"callback"`` action
+
+* write the callback; this is a function (or method) that takes at least four
+ arguments, as described below
+
+
+.. _optparse-defining-callback-option:
+
+Defining a callback option
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+As always, the easiest way to define a callback option is by using the
+:meth:`OptionParser.add_option` method. Apart from :attr:`~Option.action`, the
+only option attribute you must specify is ``callback``, the function to call::
+
+ parser.add_option("-c", action="callback", callback=my_callback)
+
+``callback`` is a function (or other callable object), so you must have already
+defined ``my_callback()`` when you create this callback option. In this simple
+case, :mod:`optparse` doesn't even know if ``-c`` takes any arguments,
+which usually means that the option takes no arguments---the mere presence of
+``-c`` on the command-line is all it needs to know. In some
+circumstances, though, you might want your callback to consume an arbitrary
+number of command-line arguments. This is where writing callbacks gets tricky;
+it's covered later in this section.
+
+:mod:`optparse` always passes four particular arguments to your callback, and it
+will only pass additional arguments if you specify them via
+:attr:`~Option.callback_args` and :attr:`~Option.callback_kwargs`. Thus, the
+minimal callback function signature is::
+
+ def my_callback(option, opt, value, parser):
+
+The four arguments to a callback are described below.
+
+There are several other option attributes that you can supply when you define a
+callback option:
+
+:attr:`~Option.type`
+ has its usual meaning: as with the ``"store"`` or ``"append"`` actions, it
+ instructs :mod:`optparse` to consume one argument and convert it to
+ :attr:`~Option.type`. Rather than storing the converted value(s) anywhere,
+ though, :mod:`optparse` passes it to your callback function.
+
+:attr:`~Option.nargs`
+ also has its usual meaning: if it is supplied and > 1, :mod:`optparse` will
+ consume :attr:`~Option.nargs` arguments, each of which must be convertible to
+ :attr:`~Option.type`. It then passes a tuple of converted values to your
+ callback.
+
+:attr:`~Option.callback_args`
+ a tuple of extra positional arguments to pass to the callback
+
+:attr:`~Option.callback_kwargs`
+ a dictionary of extra keyword arguments to pass to the callback
+
+
+.. _optparse-how-callbacks-called:
+
+How callbacks are called
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+All callbacks are called as follows::
+
+ func(option, opt_str, value, parser, *args, **kwargs)
+
+where
+
+``option``
+ is the Option instance that's calling the callback
+
+``opt_str``
+ is the option string seen on the command-line that's triggering the callback.
+ (If an abbreviated long option was used, ``opt_str`` will be the full,
+ canonical option string---e.g. if the user puts ``--foo`` on the
+ command-line as an abbreviation for ``--foobar``, then ``opt_str`` will be
+ ``"--foobar"``.)
+
+``value``
+ is the argument to this option seen on the command-line. :mod:`optparse` will
+ only expect an argument if :attr:`~Option.type` is set; the type of ``value`` will be
+ the type implied by the option's type. If :attr:`~Option.type` for this option is
+ ``None`` (no argument expected), then ``value`` will be ``None``. If :attr:`~Option.nargs`
+ > 1, ``value`` will be a tuple of values of the appropriate type.
+
+``parser``
+ is the OptionParser instance driving the whole thing, mainly useful because
+ you can access some other interesting data through its instance attributes:
+
+ ``parser.largs``
+ the current list of leftover arguments, ie. arguments that have been
+ consumed but are neither options nor option arguments. Feel free to modify
+ ``parser.largs``, e.g. by adding more arguments to it. (This list will
+ become ``args``, the second return value of :meth:`parse_args`.)
+
+ ``parser.rargs``
+ the current list of remaining arguments, ie. with ``opt_str`` and
+ ``value`` (if applicable) removed, and only the arguments following them
+ still there. Feel free to modify ``parser.rargs``, e.g. by consuming more
+ arguments.
+
+ ``parser.values``
+ the object where option values are by default stored (an instance of
+ optparse.OptionValues). This lets callbacks use the same mechanism as the
+ rest of :mod:`optparse` for storing option values; you don't need to mess
+ around with globals or closures. You can also access or modify the
+ value(s) of any options already encountered on the command-line.
+
+``args``
+ is a tuple of arbitrary positional arguments supplied via the
+ :attr:`~Option.callback_args` option attribute.
+
+``kwargs``
+ is a dictionary of arbitrary keyword arguments supplied via
+ :attr:`~Option.callback_kwargs`.
+
+
+.. _optparse-raising-errors-in-callback:
+
+Raising errors in a callback
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The callback function should raise :exc:`OptionValueError` if there are any
+problems with the option or its argument(s). :mod:`optparse` catches this and
+terminates the program, printing the error message you supply to stderr. Your
+message should be clear, concise, accurate, and mention the option at fault.
+Otherwise, the user will have a hard time figuring out what he did wrong.
+
+
+.. _optparse-callback-example-1:
+
+Callback example 1: trivial callback
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Here's an example of a callback option that takes no arguments, and simply
+records that the option was seen::
+
+ def record_foo_seen(option, opt_str, value, parser):
+ parser.values.saw_foo = True
+
+ parser.add_option("--foo", action="callback", callback=record_foo_seen)
+
+Of course, you could do that with the ``"store_true"`` action.
+
+
+.. _optparse-callback-example-2:
+
+Callback example 2: check option order
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Here's a slightly more interesting example: record the fact that ``-a`` is
+seen, but blow up if it comes after ``-b`` in the command-line. ::
+
+ def check_order(option, opt_str, value, parser):
+ if parser.values.b:
+ raise OptionValueError("can't use -a after -b")
+ parser.values.a = 1
+ [...]
+ parser.add_option("-a", action="callback", callback=check_order)
+ parser.add_option("-b", action="store_true", dest="b")
+
+
+.. _optparse-callback-example-3:
+
+Callback example 3: check option order (generalized)
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+If you want to re-use this callback for several similar options (set a flag, but
+blow up if ``-b`` has already been seen), it needs a bit of work: the error
+message and the flag that it sets must be generalized. ::
+
+ def check_order(option, opt_str, value, parser):
+ if parser.values.b:
+ raise OptionValueError("can't use %s after -b" % opt_str)
+ setattr(parser.values, option.dest, 1)
+ [...]
+ parser.add_option("-a", action="callback", callback=check_order, dest='a')
+ parser.add_option("-b", action="store_true", dest="b")
+ parser.add_option("-c", action="callback", callback=check_order, dest='c')
+
+
+.. _optparse-callback-example-4:
+
+Callback example 4: check arbitrary condition
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Of course, you could put any condition in there---you're not limited to checking
+the values of already-defined options. For example, if you have options that
+should not be called when the moon is full, all you have to do is this::
+
+ def check_moon(option, opt_str, value, parser):
+ if is_moon_full():
+ raise OptionValueError("%s option invalid when moon is full"
+ % opt_str)
+ setattr(parser.values, option.dest, 1)
+ [...]
+ parser.add_option("--foo",
+ action="callback", callback=check_moon, dest="foo")
+
+(The definition of ``is_moon_full()`` is left as an exercise for the reader.)
+
+
+.. _optparse-callback-example-5:
+
+Callback example 5: fixed arguments
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Things get slightly more interesting when you define callback options that take
+a fixed number of arguments. Specifying that a callback option takes arguments
+is similar to defining a ``"store"`` or ``"append"`` option: if you define
+:attr:`~Option.type`, then the option takes one argument that must be
+convertible to that type; if you further define :attr:`~Option.nargs`, then the
+option takes :attr:`~Option.nargs` arguments.
+
+Here's an example that just emulates the standard ``"store"`` action::
+
+ def store_value(option, opt_str, value, parser):
+ setattr(parser.values, option.dest, value)
+ [...]
+ parser.add_option("--foo",
+ action="callback", callback=store_value,
+ type="int", nargs=3, dest="foo")
+
+Note that :mod:`optparse` takes care of consuming 3 arguments and converting
+them to integers for you; all you have to do is store them. (Or whatever;
+obviously you don't need a callback for this example.)
+
+
+.. _optparse-callback-example-6:
+
+Callback example 6: variable arguments
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Things get hairy when you want an option to take a variable number of arguments.
+For this case, you must write a callback, as :mod:`optparse` doesn't provide any
+built-in capabilities for it. And you have to deal with certain intricacies of
+conventional Unix command-line parsing that :mod:`optparse` normally handles for
+you. In particular, callbacks should implement the conventional rules for bare
+``--`` and ``-`` arguments:
+
+* either ``--`` or ``-`` can be option arguments
+
+* bare ``--`` (if not the argument to some option): halt command-line
+ processing and discard the ``--``
+
+* bare ``-`` (if not the argument to some option): halt command-line
+ processing but keep the ``-`` (append it to ``parser.largs``)
+
+If you want an option that takes a variable number of arguments, there are
+several subtle, tricky issues to worry about. The exact implementation you
+choose will be based on which trade-offs you're willing to make for your
+application (which is why :mod:`optparse` doesn't support this sort of thing
+directly).
+
+Nevertheless, here's a stab at a callback for an option with variable
+arguments::
+
+ def vararg_callback(option, opt_str, value, parser):
+ assert value is None
+ value = []
+
+ def floatable(str):
+ try:
+ float(str)
+ return True
+ except ValueError:
+ return False
+

+.. _optparse-extending-optparse:
+
+Extending :mod:`optparse`
+-------------------------
+
+Since the two major controlling factors in how :mod:`optparse` interprets
+command-line options are the action and type of each option, the most likely
+direction of extension is to add new actions and new types.
+
+
+.. _optparse-adding-new-types:
+
+Adding new types
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+To add new types, you need to define your own subclass of :mod:`optparse`'s
+:class:`Option` class. This class has a couple of attributes that define
+:mod:`optparse`'s types: :attr:`~Option.TYPES` and :attr:`~Option.TYPE_CHECKER`.
+
+.. attribute:: Option.TYPES
+
+ A tuple of type names; in your subclass, simply define a new tuple
+ :attr:`TYPES` that builds on the standard one.
+
+.. attribute:: Option.TYPE_CHECKER
+
+ A dictionary mapping type names to type-checking functions. A type-checking
+ function has the following signature::
+
+ def check_mytype(option, opt, value)
+
+ where ``option`` is an :class:`Option` instance, ``opt`` is an option string
+ (e.g., ``-f``), and ``value`` is the string from the command line that must
+ be checked and converted to your desired type. ``check_mytype()`` should
+ return an object of the hypothetical type ``mytype``. The value returned by
+ a type-checking function will wind up in the OptionValues instance returned
+ by :meth:`OptionParser.parse_args`, or be passed to a callback as the
+ ``value`` parameter.
+
+ Your type-checking function should raise :exc:`OptionValueError` if it
+ encounters any problems. :exc:`OptionValueError` takes a single string
+ argument, which is passed as-is to :class:`OptionParser`'s :meth:`error`
+ method, which in turn prepends the program name and the string ``"error:"``
+ and prints everything to stderr before terminating the process.
+
+Here's a silly example that demonstrates adding a ``"complex"`` option type to
+parse Python-style complex numbers on the command line. (This is even sillier
+than it used to be, because :mod:`optparse` 1.3 added built-in support for
+complex numbers, but never mind.)
+
+First, the necessary imports::
+
+ from copy import copy
+ from optparse import Option, OptionValueError
+
+You need to define your type-checker first, since it's referred to later (in the
+:attr:`~Option.TYPE_CHECKER` class attribute of your Option subclass)::
+
+ def check_complex(option, opt, value):
+ try:
+ return complex(value)
+ except ValueError:
+ raise OptionValueError(
+ "option %s: invalid complex value: %r" % (opt, value))
+
+Finally, the Option subclass::
+
+ class MyOption (Option):
+ TYPES = Option.TYPES + ("complex",)
+ TYPE_CHECKER = copy(Option.TYPE_CHECKER)
+ TYPE_CHECKER["complex"] = check_complex
+
+(If we didn't make a :func:`copy` of :attr:`Option.TYPE_CHECKER`, we would end
+up modifying the :attr:`~Option.TYPE_CHECKER` attribute of :mod:`optparse`'s
+Option class. This being Python, nothing stops you from doing that except good
+manners and common sense.)
+
+That's it! Now you can write a script that uses the new option type just like
+any other :mod:`optparse`\ -based script, except you have to instruct your
+OptionParser to use MyOption instead of Option::
+
+ parser = OptionParser(option_class=MyOption)
+ parser.add_option("-c", type="complex")
+
+Alternately, you can build your own option list and pass it to OptionParser; if
+you don't use :meth:`add_option` in the above way, you don't need to tell
+OptionParser which option class to use::
+
+ option_list = [MyOption("-c", action="store", type="complex", dest="c")]
+ parser = OptionParser(option_list=option_list)
+
+
+.. _optparse-adding-new-actions:
+
+Adding new actions
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Adding new actions is a bit trickier, because you have to understand that
+:mod:`optparse` has a couple of classifications for actions:
+
+"store" actions
+ actions that result in :mod:`optparse` storing a value to an attribute of the
+ current OptionValues instance; these options require a :attr:`~Option.dest`
+ attribute to be supplied to the Option constructor.
+
+"typed" actions
+ actions that take a value from the command line and expect it to be of a
+ certain type; or rather, a string that can be converted to a certain type.
+ These options require a :attr:`~Option.type` attribute to the Option
+ constructor.
+
+These are overlapping sets: some default "store" actions are ``"store"``,
+``"store_const"``, ``"append"``, and ``"count"``, while the default "typed"
+actions are ``"store"``, ``"append"``, and ``"callback"``.
+
+When you add an action, you need to categorize it by listing it in at least one
+of the following class attributes of Option (all are lists of strings):
+
+.. attribute:: Option.ACTIONS
+
+ All actions must be listed in ACTIONS.
+
+.. attribute:: Option.STORE_ACTIONS
+
+ "store" actions are additionally listed here.
+
+.. attribute:: Option.TYPED_ACTIONS
+
+ "typed" actions are additionally listed here.
+
+.. attribute:: Option.ALWAYS_TYPED_ACTIONS
+
+ Actions that always take a type (i.e. whose options always take a value) are
+ additionally listed here. The only effect of this is that :mod:`optparse`
+ assigns the default type, ``"string"``, to options with no explicit type
+ whose action is listed in :attr:`ALWAYS_TYPED_ACTIONS`.
+
+In order to actually implement your new action, you must override Option's
+:meth:`take_action` method and add a case that recognizes your action.
+
+For example, let's add an ``"extend"`` action. This is similar to the standard
+``"append"`` action, but instead of taking a single value from the command-line
+and appending it to an existing list, ``"extend"`` will take multiple values in
+a single comma-delimited string, and extend an existing list with them. That
+is, if ``--names`` is an ``"extend"`` option of type ``"string"``, the command
+line ::
+
+ --names=foo,bar --names blah --names ding,dong
+
+would result in a list ::
+
+ ["foo", "bar", "blah", "ding", "dong"]
+
+Again we define a subclass of Option::
+
+ class MyOption(Option):
+
+ ACTIONS = Option.ACTIONS + ("extend",)
+ STORE_ACTIONS = Option.STORE_ACTIONS + ("extend",)
+ TYPED_ACTIONS = Option.TYPED_ACTIONS + ("extend",)
+ ALWAYS_TYPED_ACTIONS = Option.ALWAYS_TYPED_ACTIONS + ("extend",)
+
+ def take_action(self, action, dest, opt, value, values, parser):
+ if action == "extend":
+ lvalue = value.split(",")
+ values.ensure_value(dest, []).extend(lvalue)
+ else:
+ Option.take_action(
+ self, action, dest, opt, value, values, parser)
+
+Features of note:
+
+* ``"extend"`` both expects a value on the command-line and stores that value
+ somewhere, so it goes in both :attr:`~Option.STORE_ACTIONS` and
+ :attr:`~Option.TYPED_ACTIONS`.
+
+* to ensure that :mod:`optparse` assigns the default type of ``"string"`` to
+ ``"extend"`` actions, we put the ``"extend"`` action in
+ :attr:`~Option.ALWAYS_TYPED_ACTIONS` as well.
+
+* :meth:`MyOption.take_action` implements just this one new action, and passes
+ control back to :meth:`Option.take_action` for the standard :mod:`optparse`
+ actions.
+
+* ``values`` is an instance of the optparse_parser.Values class, which provides
+ the very useful :meth:`ensure_value` method. :meth:`ensure_value` is
+ essentially :func:`getattr` with a safety valve; it is called as ::
+
+ values.ensure_value(attr, value)
+
+ If the ``attr`` attribute of ``values`` doesn't exist or is None, then
+ ensure_value() first sets it to ``value``, and then returns 'value. This is
+ very handy for actions like ``"extend"``, ``"append"``, and ``"count"``, all
+ of which accumulate data in a variable and expect that variable to be of a
+ certain type (a list for the first two, an integer for the latter). Using
+ :meth:`ensure_value` means that scripts using your action don't have to worry
+ about setting a default value for the option destinations in question; they
+ can just leave the default as None and :meth:`ensure_value` will take care of
+ getting it right when it's needed.

+:mod:`os.path` --- Common pathname manipulations
+================================================
+
+.. module:: os.path
+ :synopsis: Operations on pathnames.
+
+.. index:: single: path; operations
+
+This module implements some useful functions on pathnames. To read or
+write files see :func:`open`, and for accessing the filesystem see the
+:mod:`os` module.
+
+.. note::
+
+ On Windows, many of these functions do not properly support UNC pathnames.
+ :func:`splitunc` and :func:`ismount` do handle them correctly.
+
+
+Unlike a unix shell, Python does not do any *automatic* path expansions.
+Functions such as :func:`expanduser` and :func:`expandvars` can be invoked
+explicitly when an application desires shell-like path expansion. (See also
+the :mod:`glob` module.)
+
+.. note::
+
+ Since different operating systems have different path name conventions, there
+ are several versions of this module in the standard library. The
+ :mod:`os.path` module is always the path module suitable for the operating
+ system Python is running on, and therefore usable for local paths. However,
+ you can also import and use the individual modules if you want to manipulate
+ a path that is *always* in one of the different formats. They all have the
+ same interface:
+
+ * :mod:`posixpath` for UNIX-style paths
+ * :mod:`ntpath` for Windows paths
+ * :mod:`macpath` for old-style MacOS paths
+ * :mod:`os2emxpath` for OS/2 EMX paths
+
+
+.. function:: abspath(path)
+
+ Return a normalized absolutized version of the pathname *path*. On most
+ platforms, this is equivalent to calling the function :func:`normpath` as
+ follows: ``normpath(join(os.getcwd(), path))``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 1.5.2
+
+
+.. function:: basename(path)
+
+ Return the base name of pathname *path*. This is the second element of the
+ pair returned by passing *path* to the function :func:`split`. Note that
+ the result of this function is different
+ from the Unix :program:`basename` program; where :program:`basename` for
+ ``'/foo/bar/'`` returns ``'bar'``, the :func:`basename` function returns an
+ empty string (``''``).
+
+
+.. function:: commonprefix(list)
+
+ Return the longest path prefix (taken character-by-character) that is a prefix
+ of all paths in *list*. If *list* is empty, return the empty string (``''``).
+ Note that this may return invalid paths because it works a character at a time.
+
+
+.. function:: dirname(path)
+
+ Return the directory name of pathname *path*. This is the first element of
+ the pair returned by passing *path* to the function :func:`split`.
+
+
+.. function:: exists(path)
+
+ Return ``True`` if *path* refers to an existing path. Returns ``False`` for
+ broken symbolic links. On some platforms, this function may return ``False`` if
+ permission is not granted to execute :func:`os.stat` on the requested file, even
+ if the *path* physically exists.
+
+
+.. function:: lexists(path)
+
+ Return ``True`` if *path* refers to an existing path. Returns ``True`` for
+ broken symbolic links. Equivalent to :func:`exists` on platforms lacking
+ :func:`os.lstat`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+.. function:: expanduser(path)
+
+ On Unix and Windows, return the argument with an initial component of ``~`` or
+ ``~user`` replaced by that *user*'s home directory.
+
+ .. index:: module: pwd
+
+ On Unix, an initial ``~`` is replaced by the environment variable :envvar:`HOME`
+ if it is set; otherwise the current user's home directory is looked up in the
+ password directory through the built-in module :mod:`pwd`. An initial ``~user``
+ is looked up directly in the password directory.
+
+ On Windows, :envvar:`HOME` and :envvar:`USERPROFILE` will be used if set,
+ otherwise a combination of :envvar:`HOMEPATH` and :envvar:`HOMEDRIVE` will be
+ used. An initial ``~user`` is handled by stripping the last directory component
+ from the created user path derived above.
+
+ If the expansion fails or if the path does not begin with a tilde, the path is
+ returned unchanged.
+
+
+.. function:: expandvars(path)
+
+ Return the argument with environment variables expanded. Substrings of the form
+ ``$name`` or ``${name}`` are replaced by the value of environment variable
+ *name*. Malformed variable names and references to non-existing variables are
+ left unchanged.
+
+ On Windows, ``%name%`` expansions are supported in addition to ``$name`` and
+ ``${name}``.
+
+
+.. function:: getatime(path)
+
+ Return the time of last access of *path*. The return value is a number giving
+ the number of seconds since the epoch (see the :mod:`time` module). Raise
+ :exc:`os.error` if the file does not exist or is inaccessible.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 1.5.2
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ If :func:`os.stat_float_times` returns True, the result is a floating point
+ number.
+
+
+.. function:: getmtime(path)
+
+ Return the time of last modification of *path*. The return value is a number
+ giving the number of seconds since the epoch (see the :mod:`time` module).
+ Raise :exc:`os.error` if the file does not exist or is inaccessible.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 1.5.2
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ If :func:`os.stat_float_times` returns True, the result is a floating point
+ number.
+
+
+.. function:: getctime(path)
+
+ Return the system's ctime which, on some systems (like Unix) is the time of the
+ last change, and, on others (like Windows), is the creation time for *path*.
+ The return value is a number giving the number of seconds since the epoch (see
+ the :mod:`time` module). Raise :exc:`os.error` if the file does not exist or
+ is inaccessible.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. function:: getsize(path)
+
+ Return the size, in bytes, of *path*. Raise :exc:`os.error` if the file does
+ not exist or is inaccessible.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 1.5.2
+
+
+.. function:: isabs(path)
+
+ Return ``True`` if *path* is an absolute pathname. On Unix, that means it
+ begins with a slash, on Windows that it begins with a (back)slash after chopping
+ off a potential drive letter.
+
+
+.. function:: isfile(path)
+
+ Return ``True`` if *path* is an existing regular file. This follows symbolic
+ links, so both :func:`islink` and :func:`isfile` can be true for the same path.
+
+
+.. function:: isdir(path)
+
+ Return ``True`` if *path* is an existing directory. This follows symbolic
+ links, so both :func:`islink` and :func:`isdir` can be true for the same path.
+
+
+.. function:: islink(path)
+
+ Return ``True`` if *path* refers to a directory entry that is a symbolic link.
+ Always ``False`` if symbolic links are not supported.
+
+
+.. function:: ismount(path)
+
+ Return ``True`` if pathname *path* is a :dfn:`mount point`: a point in a file
+ system where a different file system has been mounted. The function checks
+ whether *path*'s parent, :file:`path/..`, is on a different device than *path*,
+ or whether :file:`path/..` and *path* point to the same i-node on the same
+ device --- this should detect mount points for all Unix and POSIX variants.
+
+
+.. function:: join(path1[, path2[, ...]])
+
+ Join one or more path components intelligently. If any component is an absolute
+ path, all previous components (on Windows, including the previous drive letter,
+ if there was one) are thrown away, and joining continues. The return value is
+ the concatenation of *path1*, and optionally *path2*, etc., with exactly one
+ directory separator (``os.sep``) following each non-empty part except the last.
+ (This means that an empty last part will result in a path that ends with a
+ separator.) Note that on Windows, since there is a current directory for
+ each drive, ``os.path.join("c:", "foo")`` represents a path relative to the
+ current directory on drive :file:`C:` (:file:`c:foo`), not :file:`c:\\foo`.
+
+
+.. function:: normcase(path)
+
+ Normalize the case of a pathname. On Unix and Mac OS X, this returns the
+ path unchanged; on case-insensitive filesystems, it converts the path to
+ lowercase. On Windows, it also converts forward slashes to backward slashes.
+
+
+.. function:: normpath(path)
+
+ Normalize a pathname by collapsing redundant separators and up-level
+ references so that ``A//B``, ``A/B/``, ``A/./B`` and ``A/foo/../B`` all
+ become ``A/B``. This string manipulation may change the meaning of a path
+ that contains symbolic links. On Windows, it converts forward slashes to
+ backward slashes. To normalize case, use :func:`normcase`.
+
+
+.. function:: realpath(path)
+
+ Return the canonical path of the specified filename, eliminating any symbolic
+ links encountered in the path (if they are supported by the operating system).
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+
+.. function:: relpath(path[, start])
+
+ Return a relative filepath to *path* either from the current directory or from
+ an optional *start* point.
+
+ *start* defaults to :attr:`os.curdir`.
+
+ Availability: Windows, Unix.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: samefile(path1, path2)
+
+ Return ``True`` if both pathname arguments refer to the same file or directory
+ (as indicated by device number and i-node number). Raise an exception if a
+ :func:`os.stat` call on either pathname fails.
+
+ Availability: Unix.
+
+
+.. function:: sameopenfile(fp1, fp2)
+
+ Return ``True`` if the file descriptors *fp1* and *fp2* refer to the same file.
+
+ Availability: Unix.
+
+
+.. function:: samestat(stat1, stat2)
+
+ Return ``True`` if the stat tuples *stat1* and *stat2* refer to the same file.
+ These structures may have been returned by :func:`fstat`, :func:`lstat`, or
+ :func:`stat`. This function implements the underlying comparison used by
+ :func:`samefile` and :func:`sameopenfile`.
+
+ Availability: Unix.
+
+
+.. function:: split(path)
+
+ Split the pathname *path* into a pair, ``(head, tail)`` where *tail* is the
+ last pathname component and *head* is everything leading up to that. The
+ *tail* part will never contain a slash; if *path* ends in a slash, *tail*
+ will be empty. If there is no slash in *path*, *head* will be empty. If
+ *path* is empty, both *head* and *tail* are empty. Trailing slashes are
+ stripped from *head* unless it is the root (one or more slashes only). In
+ all cases, ``join(head, tail)`` returns a path to the same location as *path*
+ (but the strings may differ). Also see the functions :func:`dirname` and
+ :func:`basename`.
+
+
+.. function:: splitdrive(path)
+
+ Split the pathname *path* into a pair ``(drive, tail)`` where *drive* is either
+ a drive specification or the empty string. On systems which do not use drive
+ specifications, *drive* will always be the empty string. In all cases, ``drive
+ + tail`` will be the same as *path*.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 1.3
+
+
+.. function:: splitext(path)
+
+ Split the pathname *path* into a pair ``(root, ext)`` such that ``root + ext ==
+ path``, and *ext* is empty or begins with a period and contains at most one
+ period. Leading periods on the basename are ignored; ``splitext('.cshrc')``
+ returns ``('.cshrc', '')``.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ Earlier versions could produce an empty root when the only period was the
+ first character.
+
+
+.. function:: splitunc(path)
+
+ Split the pathname *path* into a pair ``(unc, rest)`` so that *unc* is the UNC
+ mount point (such as ``r'\\host\mount'``), if present, and *rest* the rest of
+ the path (such as ``r'\path\file.ext'``). For paths containing drive letters,
+ *unc* will always be the empty string.
+
+ Availability: Windows.
+
+
+.. function:: walk(path, visit, arg)
+
+ Calls the function *visit* with arguments ``(arg, dirname, names)`` for each
+ directory in the directory tree rooted at *path* (including *path* itself, if it
+ is a directory). The argument *dirname* specifies the visited directory, the
+ argument *names* lists the files in the directory (gotten from
+ ``os.listdir(dirname)``). The *visit* function may modify *names* to influence
+ the set of directories visited below *dirname*, e.g. to avoid visiting certain
+ parts of the tree. (The object referred to by *names* must be modified in
+ place, using :keyword:`del` or slice assignment.)
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Symbolic links to directories are not treated as subdirectories, and that
+ :func:`walk` therefore will not visit them. To visit linked directories you must
+ identify them with ``os.path.islink(file)`` and ``os.path.isdir(file)``, and
+ invoke :func:`walk` as necessary.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ This function is deprecated and has been removed in Python 3 in favor of
+ :func:`os.walk`.
+
+
+.. data:: supports_unicode_filenames
+
+ True if arbitrary Unicode strings can be used as file names (within limitations
+ imposed by the file system).
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3

+:mod:`os` --- Miscellaneous operating system interfaces
+=======================================================
+
+.. module:: os
+ :synopsis: Miscellaneous operating system interfaces.
+
+
+This module provides a portable way of using operating system dependent
+functionality. If you just want to read or write a file see :func:`open`, if
+you want to manipulate paths, see the :mod:`os.path` module, and if you want to
+read all the lines in all the files on the command line see the :mod:`fileinput`
+module. For creating temporary files and directories see the :mod:`tempfile`
+module, and for high-level file and directory handling see the :mod:`shutil`
+module.
+
+Notes on the availability of these functions:
+
+* The design of all built-in operating system dependent modules of Python is
+ such that as long as the same functionality is available, it uses the same
+ interface; for example, the function ``os.stat(path)`` returns stat
+ information about *path* in the same format (which happens to have originated
+ with the POSIX interface).
+
+* Extensions peculiar to a particular operating system are also available
+ through the :mod:`os` module, but using them is of course a threat to
+ portability.
+
+* An "Availability: Unix" note means that this function is commonly found on
+ Unix systems. It does not make any claims about its existence on a specific
+ operating system.
+
+* If not separately noted, all functions that claim "Availability: Unix" are
+ supported on Mac OS X, which builds on a Unix core.
+
+.. Availability notes get their own line and occur at the end of the function
+.. documentation.
+
+.. note::
+
+ All functions in this module raise :exc:`OSError` in the case of invalid or
+ inaccessible file names and paths, or other arguments that have the correct
+ type, but are not accepted by the operating system.
+
+
+.. exception:: error
+
+ An alias for the built-in :exc:`OSError` exception.
+
+
+.. data:: name
+
+ The name of the operating system dependent module imported. The following
+ names have currently been registered: ``'posix'``, ``'nt'``,
+ ``'os2'``, ``'ce'``, ``'java'``, ``'riscos'``.
+
+ .. seealso::
+ :attr:`sys.platform` has a finer granularity. :func:`os.uname` gives
+ system-dependent version information.
+
+ The :mod:`platform` module provides detailed checks for the
+ system's identity.
+
+
+.. _os-procinfo:
+
+Process Parameters
+------------------
+
+These functions and data items provide information and operate on the current
+process and user.
+
+
+.. data:: environ
+
+ A :term:`mapping` object representing the string environment. For example,
+ ``environ['HOME']`` is the pathname of your home directory (on some platforms),
+ and is equivalent to ``getenv("HOME")`` in C.
+
+ This mapping is captured the first time the :mod:`os` module is imported,
+ typically during Python startup as part of processing :file:`site.py`. Changes
+ to the environment made after this time are not reflected in ``os.environ``,
+ except for changes made by modifying ``os.environ`` directly.
+
+ If the platform supports the :func:`putenv` function, this mapping may be used
+ to modify the environment as well as query the environment. :func:`putenv` will
+ be called automatically when the mapping is modified.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Calling :func:`putenv` directly does not change ``os.environ``, so it's better
+ to modify ``os.environ``.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ On some platforms, including FreeBSD and Mac OS X, setting ``environ`` may
+ cause memory leaks. Refer to the system documentation for
+ :c:func:`putenv`.
+
+ If :func:`putenv` is not provided, a modified copy of this mapping may be
+ passed to the appropriate process-creation functions to cause child processes
+ to use a modified environment.
+
+ If the platform supports the :func:`unsetenv` function, you can delete items in
+ this mapping to unset environment variables. :func:`unsetenv` will be called
+ automatically when an item is deleted from ``os.environ``, and when
+ one of the :meth:`pop` or :meth:`clear` methods is called.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ Also unset environment variables when calling :meth:`os.environ.clear`
+ and :meth:`os.environ.pop`.
+
+
+.. function:: chdir(path)
+ fchdir(fd)
+ getcwd()
+ :noindex:
+
+ These functions are described in :ref:`os-file-dir`.
+

+
+ Availability: Unix.
+
+ .. note:: On Mac OS X, :func:`getgroups` behavior differs somewhat from
+ other Unix platforms. If the Python interpreter was built with a
+ deployment target of :const:`10.5` or earlier, :func:`getgroups` returns
+ the list of effective group ids associated with the current user process;
+ this list is limited to a system-defined number of entries, typically 16,
+ and may be modified by calls to :func:`setgroups` if suitably privileged.
+ If built with a deployment target greater than :const:`10.5`,
+ :func:`getgroups` returns the current group access list for the user
+ associated with the effective user id of the process; the group access
+ list may change over the lifetime of the process, it is not affected by
+ calls to :func:`setgroups`, and its length is not limited to 16. The

+
+These functions create new file objects. (See also :func:`open`.)
+
+
+.. function:: fdopen(fd[, mode[, bufsize]])
+
+ .. index:: single: I/O control; buffering
+
+ Return an open file object connected to the file descriptor *fd*. The *mode*
+ and *bufsize* arguments have the same meaning as the corresponding arguments to
+ the built-in :func:`open` function.
+
+ Availability: Unix, Windows.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ When specified, the *mode* argument must now start with one of the letters
+ ``'r'``, ``'w'``, or ``'a'``, otherwise a :exc:`ValueError` is raised.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ On Unix, when the *mode* argument starts with ``'a'``, the *O_APPEND* flag is
+ set on the file descriptor (which the :c:func:`fdopen` implementation already
+ does on most platforms).
+
+
+.. function:: popen(command[, mode[, bufsize]])
+
+ Open a pipe to or from *command*. The return value is an open file object
+ connected to the pipe, which can be read or written depending on whether *mode*
+ is ``'r'`` (default) or ``'w'``. The *bufsize* argument has the same meaning as
+ the corresponding argument to the built-in :func:`open` function. The exit
+ status of the command (encoded in the format specified for :func:`wait`) is
+ available as the return value of the :meth:`~file.close` method of the file object,
+ except that when the exit status is zero (termination without errors), ``None``
+ is returned.
+
+ Availability: Unix, Windows.
+
+ .. deprecated:: 2.6
+ This function is obsolete. Use the :mod:`subprocess` module. Check
+ especially the :ref:`subprocess-replacements` section.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.0
+ This function worked unreliably under Windows in earlier versions of Python.
+ This was due to the use of the :c:func:`_popen` function from the libraries
+ provided with Windows. Newer versions of Python do not use the broken
+ implementation from the Windows libraries.
+
+
+.. function:: tmpfile()
+
+ Return a new file object opened in update mode (``w+b``). The file has no
+ directory entries associated with it and will be automatically deleted once
+ there are no file descriptors for the file.
+
+ Availability: Unix, Windows.
+
+There are a number of different :func:`popen\*` functions that provide slightly
+different ways to create subprocesses.
+
+.. deprecated:: 2.6
+ All of the :func:`popen\*` functions are obsolete. Use the :mod:`subprocess`
+ module.
+
+For each of the :func:`popen\*` variants, if *bufsize* is specified, it
+specifies the buffer size for the I/O pipes. *mode*, if provided, should be the
+string ``'b'`` or ``'t'``; on Windows this is needed to determine whether the
+file objects should be opened in binary or text mode. The default value for
+*mode* is ``'t'``.
+
+Also, for each of these variants, on Unix, *cmd* may be a sequence, in which
+case arguments will be passed directly to the program without shell intervention
+(as with :func:`os.spawnv`). If *cmd* is a string it will be passed to the shell
+(as with :func:`os.system`).
+
+These methods do not make it possible to retrieve the exit status from the child
+processes. The only way to control the input and output streams and also
+retrieve the return codes is to use the :mod:`subprocess` module; these are only
+available on Unix.
+
+For a discussion of possible deadlock conditions related to the use of these
+functions, see :ref:`popen2-flow-control`.
+
+
+.. function:: popen2(cmd[, mode[, bufsize]])

+
+(Note that ``child_stdin, child_stdout, and child_stderr`` are named from the
+point of view of the child process, so *child_stdin* is the child's standard
+input.)
+
+This functionality is also available in the :mod:`popen2` module using functions
+of the same names, but the return values of those functions have a different
+order.
+
+
+.. _os-fd-ops:
+
+File Descriptor Operations
+--------------------------
+
+These functions operate on I/O streams referenced using file descriptors.
+
+File descriptors are small integers corresponding to a file that has been opened
+by the current process. For example, standard input is usually file descriptor
+0, standard output is 1, and standard error is 2. Further files opened by a
+process will then be assigned 3, 4, 5, and so forth. The name "file descriptor"
+is slightly deceptive; on Unix platforms, sockets and pipes are also referenced
+by file descriptors.
+
+The :meth:`~file.fileno` method can be used to obtain the file descriptor
+associated with a file object when required. Note that using the file
+descriptor directly will bypass the file object methods, ignoring aspects such
+as internal buffering of data.
+
+.. function:: close(fd)
+
+ Close file descriptor *fd*.
+
+ Availability: Unix, Windows.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ This function is intended for low-level I/O and must be applied to a file
+ descriptor as returned by :func:`os.open` or :func:`pipe`. To close a "file
+ object" returned by the built-in function :func:`open` or by :func:`popen` or
+ :func:`fdopen`, use its :meth:`~file.close` method.
+
+
+.. function:: closerange(fd_low, fd_high)
+
+ Close all file descriptors from *fd_low* (inclusive) to *fd_high* (exclusive),
+ ignoring errors. Equivalent to::
+
+ for fd in xrange(fd_low, fd_high):
+ try:
+ os.close(fd)
+ except OSError:
+ pass
+
+ Availability: Unix, Windows.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: dup(fd)
+
+ Return a duplicate of file descriptor *fd*.
+
+ Availability: Unix, Windows.
+
+
+.. function:: dup2(fd, fd2)
+
+ Duplicate file descriptor *fd* to *fd2*, closing the latter first if necessary.
+
+ Availability: Unix, Windows.
+
+
+.. function:: fchmod(fd, mode)
+
+ Change the mode of the file given by *fd* to the numeric *mode*. See the docs
+ for :func:`chmod` for possible values of *mode*.
+
+ Availability: Unix.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: fchown(fd, uid, gid)
+
+ Change the owner and group id of the file given by *fd* to the numeric *uid*
+ and *gid*. To leave one of the ids unchanged, set it to -1.
+
+ Availability: Unix.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: fdatasync(fd)
+
+ Force write of file with filedescriptor *fd* to disk. Does not force update of
+ metadata.
+
+ Availability: Unix.
+
+ .. note::
+ This function is not available on MacOS.
+
+
+.. function:: fpathconf(fd, name)
+
+ Return system configuration information relevant to an open file. *name*
+ specifies the configuration value to retrieve; it may be a string which is the
+ name of a defined system value; these names are specified in a number of
+ standards (POSIX.1, Unix 95, Unix 98, and others). Some platforms define
+ additional names as well. The names known to the host operating system are
+ given in the ``pathconf_names`` dictionary. For configuration variables not
+ included in that mapping, passing an integer for *name* is also accepted.
+
+ If *name* is a string and is not known, :exc:`ValueError` is raised. If a
+ specific value for *name* is not supported by the host system, even if it is
+ included in ``pathconf_names``, an :exc:`OSError` is raised with
+ :const:`errno.EINVAL` for the error number.
+
+ Availability: Unix.
+
+
+.. function:: fstat(fd)
+
+ Return status for file descriptor *fd*, like :func:`~os.stat`.
+
+ Availability: Unix, Windows.
+
+
+.. function:: fstatvfs(fd)
+
+ Return information about the filesystem containing the file associated with file
+ descriptor *fd*, like :func:`statvfs`.
+
+ Availability: Unix.
+
+
+.. function:: fsync(fd)
+
+ Force write of file with filedescriptor *fd* to disk. On Unix, this calls the
+ native :c:func:`fsync` function; on Windows, the MS :c:func:`_commit` function.
+
+ If you're starting with a Python file object *f*, first do ``f.flush()``, and
+ then do ``os.fsync(f.fileno())``, to ensure that all internal buffers associated
+ with *f* are written to disk.
+
+ Availability: Unix, and Windows starting in 2.2.3.
+
+
+.. function:: ftruncate(fd, length)
+
+ Truncate the file corresponding to file descriptor *fd*, so that it is at most
+ *length* bytes in size.
+
+ Availability: Unix.
+
+
+.. function:: isatty(fd)
+
+ Return ``True`` if the file descriptor *fd* is open and connected to a
+ tty(-like) device, else ``False``.
+
+ Availability: Unix.
+
+
+.. function:: lseek(fd, pos, how)
+
+ Set the current position of file descriptor *fd* to position *pos*, modified
+ by *how*: :const:`SEEK_SET` or ``0`` to set the position relative to the
+ beginning of the file; :const:`SEEK_CUR` or ``1`` to set it relative to the
+ current position; :const:`os.SEEK_END` or ``2`` to set it relative to the end of
+ the file.
+
+ Availability: Unix, Windows.
+
+

+ Availability: Windows, Unix.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. function:: open(file, flags[, mode])
+
+ Open the file *file* and set various flags according to *flags* and possibly its
+ mode according to *mode*. The default *mode* is ``0777`` (octal), and the
+ current umask value is first masked out. Return the file descriptor for the
+ newly opened file.
+
+ For a description of the flag and mode values, see the C run-time documentation;
+ flag constants (like :const:`O_RDONLY` and :const:`O_WRONLY`) are defined in
+ this module too (see :ref:`open-constants`). In particular, on Windows adding
+ :const:`O_BINARY` is needed to open files in binary mode.
+
+ Availability: Unix, Windows.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ This function is intended for low-level I/O. For normal usage, use the
+ built-in function :func:`open`, which returns a "file object" with
+ :meth:`~file.read` and :meth:`~file.write` methods (and many more). To
+ wrap a file descriptor in a "file object", use :func:`fdopen`.
+
+
+.. function:: openpty()
+
+ .. index:: module: pty
+
+ Open a new pseudo-terminal pair. Return a pair of file descriptors ``(master,
+ slave)`` for the pty and the tty, respectively. For a (slightly) more portable
+ approach, use the :mod:`pty` module.
+
+ Availability: some flavors of Unix.
+
+
+.. function:: pipe()
+
+ Create a pipe. Return a pair of file descriptors ``(r, w)`` usable for reading
+ and writing, respectively.
+
+ Availability: Unix, Windows.
+
+
+.. function:: read(fd, n)
+
+ Read at most *n* bytes from file descriptor *fd*. Return a string containing the
+ bytes read. If the end of the file referred to by *fd* has been reached, an
+ empty string is returned.
+
+ Availability: Unix, Windows.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ This function is intended for low-level I/O and must be applied to a file
+ descriptor as returned by :func:`os.open` or :func:`pipe`. To read a "file object"
+ returned by the built-in function :func:`open` or by :func:`popen` or
+ :func:`fdopen`, or :data:`sys.stdin`, use its :meth:`~file.read` or
+ :meth:`~file.readline` methods.

+
+ Availability: Unix.
+
+
+.. function:: ttyname(fd)
+
+ Return a string which specifies the terminal device associated with

+ exception is raised.
+
+ Availability: Unix.
+
+
+.. function:: write(fd, str)
+
+ Write the string *str* to file descriptor *fd*. Return the number of bytes
+ actually written.
+
+ Availability: Unix, Windows.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ This function is intended for low-level I/O and must be applied to a file
+ descriptor as returned by :func:`os.open` or :func:`pipe`. To write a "file

+ :meth:`~file.write` method.
+
+
+.. _open-constants:
+
+``open()`` flag constants
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The following constants are options for the *flags* parameter to the
+:func:`~os.open` function. They can be combined using the bitwise OR operator
+``|``. Some of them are not available on all platforms. For descriptions of
+their availability and use, consult the :manpage:`open(2)` manual page on Unix
+or `the MSDN <http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/z0kc8e3z.aspx>`_ on Windows.
+
+
+.. data:: O_RDONLY
+ O_WRONLY
+ O_RDWR
+ O_APPEND

+
+.. data:: O_DSYNC
+ O_RSYNC
+ O_SYNC
+ O_NDELAY
+ O_NONBLOCK
+ O_NOCTTY

+ These constants are only available on Unix.
+
+
+.. data:: O_BINARY
+ O_NOINHERIT
+ O_SHORT_LIVED
+ O_TEMPORARY
+ O_RANDOM
+ O_SEQUENTIAL
+ O_TEXT
+
+ These constants are only available on Windows.
+
+
+.. data:: O_ASYNC
+ O_DIRECT
+ O_DIRECTORY
+ O_NOFOLLOW
+ O_NOATIME
+
+ These constants are GNU extensions and not present if they are not defined by

+
+
+.. _os-file-dir:
+
+Files and Directories
+---------------------
+
+.. function:: access(path, mode)
+
+ Use the real uid/gid to test for access to *path*. Note that most operations
+ will use the effective uid/gid, therefore this routine can be used in a
+ suid/sgid environment to test if the invoking user has the specified access to
+ *path*. *mode* should be :const:`F_OK` to test the existence of *path*, or it
+ can be the inclusive OR of one or more of :const:`R_OK`, :const:`W_OK`, and
+ :const:`X_OK` to test permissions. Return :const:`True` if access is allowed,
+ :const:`False` if not. See the Unix man page :manpage:`access(2)` for more
+ information.
+
+ Availability: Unix, Windows.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Using :func:`access` to check if a user is authorized to e.g. open a file
+ before actually doing so using :func:`open` creates a security hole,
+ because the user might exploit the short time interval between checking
+ and opening the file to manipulate it. It's preferable to use :term:`EAFP`
+ techniques. For example::
+
+ if os.access("myfile", os.R_OK):
+ with open("myfile") as fp:
+ return fp.read()
+ return "some default data"
+
+ is better written as::
+
+ try:
+ fp = open("myfile")
+ except IOError as e:
+ if e.errno == errno.EACCES:
+ return "some default data"
+ # Not a permission error.
+ raise
+ else:
+ with fp:
+ return fp.read()
+
+ .. note::
+
+ I/O operations may fail even when :func:`access` indicates that they would

+
+.. function:: pathconf(path, name)

+
+ If *name* is a string and is not known, :exc:`ValueError` is raised. If a

+
+.. function:: remove(path)
+
+ Remove (delete) the file *path*. If *path* is a directory, :exc:`OSError` is
+ raised; see :func:`rmdir` below to remove a directory. This is identical to
+ the :func:`unlink` function documented below. On Windows, attempting to
+ remove a file that is in use causes an exception to be raised; on Unix, the

+
+ Availability: Unix, Windows.
+
+
+.. function:: removedirs(path)
+
+ .. index:: single: directory; deleting
+
+ Remove directories recursively. Works like :func:`rmdir` except that, if the
+ leaf directory is successfully removed, :func:`removedirs` tries to
+ successively remove every parent directory mentioned in *path* until an error
+ is raised (which is ignored, because it generally means that a parent directory
+ is not empty). For example, ``os.removedirs('foo/bar/baz')`` will first remove
+ the directory ``'foo/bar/baz'``, and then remove ``'foo/bar'`` and ``'foo'`` if
+ they are empty. Raises :exc:`OSError` if the leaf directory could not be

+
+.. function:: rename(src, dst)
+
+ Rename the file or directory *src* to *dst*. If *dst* is a directory,

+ be replaced silently if the user has permission. The operation may fail on some

+
+.. function:: renames(old, new)
+
+ Recursive directory or file renaming function. Works like :func:`rename`, except

+
+ Perform the equivalent of a :c:func:`stat` system call on the given path.

+ * :attr:`st_gid` - group id of owner,
+ * :attr:`st_size` - size of file, in bytes,
+ * :attr:`st_atime` - time of most recent access,
+ * :attr:`st_mtime` - time of most recent content modification,
+ * :attr:`st_ctime` - platform dependent; time of most recent metadata change on
+ Unix, or the time of creation on Windows)
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ If :func:`stat_float_times` returns ``True``, the time values are floats, measuring
+ seconds. Fractions of a second may be reported if the system supports that. On
+ Mac OS, the times are always floats. See :func:`stat_float_times` for further
+ discussion.
+
+ On some Unix systems (such as Linux), the following attributes may also be
+ available:
+
+ * :attr:`st_blocks` - number of blocks allocated for file
+ * :attr:`st_blksize` - filesystem blocksize
+ * :attr:`st_rdev` - type of device if an inode device
+ * :attr:`st_flags` - user defined flags for file
+
+ On other Unix systems (such as FreeBSD), the following attributes may be
+ available (but may be only filled out if root tries to use them):
+
+ * :attr:`st_gen` - file generation number
+ * :attr:`st_birthtime` - time of file creation
+
+ On Mac OS systems, the following attributes may also be available:
+
+ * :attr:`st_rsize`
+ * :attr:`st_creator`
+ * :attr:`st_type`
+
+ On RISCOS systems, the following attributes are also available:
+
+ * :attr:`st_ftype` (file type)
+ * :attr:`st_attrs` (attributes)
+ * :attr:`st_obtype` (object type).
+
+ .. note::
+
+ The exact meaning and resolution of the :attr:`st_atime`,
+ :attr:`st_mtime`, and :attr:`st_ctime` attributes depend on the operating
+ system and the file system. For example, on Windows systems using the FAT
+ or FAT32 file systems, :attr:`st_mtime` has 2-second resolution, and
+ :attr:`st_atime` has only 1-day resolution. See your operating system
+ documentation for details.
+
+ For backward compatibility, the return value of :func:`~os.stat` is also accessible
+ as a tuple of at least 10 integers giving the most important (and portable)
+ members of the :c:type:`stat` structure, in the order :attr:`st_mode`,

+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.2
+ Added access to values as attributes of the returned object.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ Added :attr:`st_gen` and :attr:`st_birthtime`.
+
+
+.. function:: stat_float_times([newvalue])
+
+ Determine whether :class:`stat_result` represents time stamps as float objects.
+ If *newvalue* is ``True``, future calls to :func:`~os.stat` return floats, if it is
+ ``False``, future calls return ints. If *newvalue* is omitted, return the
+ current setting.
+
+ For compatibility with older Python versions, accessing :class:`stat_result` as
+ a tuple always returns integers.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ Python now returns float values by default. Applications which do not work
+ correctly with floating point time stamps can use this function to restore the
+ old behaviour.
+
+ The resolution of the timestamps (that is the smallest possible fraction)
+ depends on the system. Some systems only support second resolution; on these
+ systems, the fraction will always be zero.
+
+ It is recommended that this setting is only changed at program startup time in
+ the *__main__* module; libraries should never change this setting. If an
+ application uses a library that works incorrectly if floating point time stamps
+ are processed, this application should turn the feature off until the library
+ has been corrected.
+
+
+.. function:: statvfs(path)
+
+ Perform a :c:func:`statvfs` system call on the given path. The return value is
+ an object whose attributes describe the filesystem on the given path, and
+ correspond to the members of the :c:type:`statvfs` structure, namely:
+ :attr:`f_bsize`, :attr:`f_frsize`, :attr:`f_blocks`, :attr:`f_bfree`,
+ :attr:`f_bavail`, :attr:`f_files`, :attr:`f_ffree`, :attr:`f_favail`,
+ :attr:`f_flag`, :attr:`f_namemax`.
+
+ .. index:: module: statvfs
+
+ For backward compatibility, the return value is also accessible as a tuple whose
+ values correspond to the attributes, in the order given above. The standard
+ module :mod:`statvfs` defines constants that are useful for extracting
+ information from a :c:type:`statvfs` structure when accessing it as a sequence;
+ this remains useful when writing code that needs to work with versions of Python
+ that don't support accessing the fields as attributes.

+
+ Return a unique path name that is reasonable for creating a temporary file.
+ This will be an absolute path that names a potential directory entry in the

+
+ Availability: Unix, Windows.
+
+
+.. function:: utime(path, times)
+
+ Set the access and modified times of the file specified by *path*. If *times*
+ is ``None``, then the file's access and modified times are set to the current
+ time. (The effect is similar to running the Unix program :program:`touch` on
+ the path.) Otherwise, *times* must be a 2-tuple of numbers, of the form
+ ``(atime, mtime)`` which is used to set the access and modified times,
+ respectively. Whether a directory can be given for *path* depends on whether
+ the operating system implements directories as files (for example, Windows
+ does not). Note that the exact times you set here may not be returned by a
+ subsequent :func:`~os.stat` call, depending on the resolution with which your
+ operating system records access and modification times; see :func:`~os.stat`.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.0

+
+
+.. function:: walk(top, topdown=True, onerror=None, followlinks=False)
+
+ .. index::
+ single: directory; walking
+ single: directory; traversal
+
+ Generate the file names in a directory tree by walking the tree
+ either top-down or bottom-up. For each directory in the tree rooted at directory
+ *top* (including *top* itself), it yields a 3-tuple ``(dirpath, dirnames,
+ filenames)``.
+
+ *dirpath* is a string, the path to the directory. *dirnames* is a list of the
+ names of the subdirectories in *dirpath* (excluding ``'.'`` and ``'..'``).
+ *filenames* is a list of the names of the non-directory files in *dirpath*.
+ Note that the names in the lists contain no path components. To get a full path
+ (which begins with *top*) to a file or directory in *dirpath*, do
+ ``os.path.join(dirpath, name)``.
+
+ If optional argument *topdown* is ``True`` or not specified, the triple for a
+ directory is generated before the triples for any of its subdirectories
+ (directories are generated top-down). If *topdown* is ``False``, the triple for a
+ directory is generated after the triples for all of its subdirectories
+ (directories are generated bottom-up).
+
+ When *topdown* is ``True``, the caller can modify the *dirnames* list in-place
+ (perhaps using :keyword:`del` or slice assignment), and :func:`walk` will only
+ recurse into the subdirectories whose names remain in *dirnames*; this can be
+ used to prune the search, impose a specific order of visiting, or even to inform
+ :func:`walk` about directories the caller creates or renames before it resumes
+ :func:`walk` again. Modifying *dirnames* when *topdown* is ``False`` is
+ ineffective, because in bottom-up mode the directories in *dirnames* are
+ generated before *dirpath* itself is generated.
+
+ By default, errors from the :func:`listdir` call are ignored. If optional
+ argument *onerror* is specified, it should be a function; it will be called with
+ one argument, an :exc:`OSError` instance. It can report the error to continue
+ with the walk, or raise the exception to abort the walk. Note that the filename
+ is available as the ``filename`` attribute of the exception object.
+
+ By default, :func:`walk` will not walk down into symbolic links that resolve to
+ directories. Set *followlinks* to ``True`` to visit directories pointed to by
+ symlinks, on systems that support them.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+ The *followlinks* parameter.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Be aware that setting *followlinks* to ``True`` can lead to infinite recursion if a
+ link points to a parent directory of itself. :func:`walk` does not keep track of
+ the directories it visited already.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ If you pass a relative pathname, don't change the current working directory
+ between resumptions of :func:`walk`. :func:`walk` never changes the current
+ directory, and assumes that its caller doesn't either.
+
+ This example displays the number of bytes taken by non-directory files in each
+ directory under the starting directory, except that it doesn't look under any
+ CVS subdirectory::
+
+ import os
+ from os.path import join, getsize
+ for root, dirs, files in os.walk('python/Lib/email'):
+ print root, "consumes",
+ print sum(getsize(join(root, name)) for name in files),
+ print "bytes in", len(files), "non-directory files"
+ if 'CVS' in dirs:
+ dirs.remove('CVS') # don't visit CVS directories
+
+ In the next example, walking the tree bottom-up is essential: :func:`rmdir`
+ doesn't allow deleting a directory before the directory is empty::
+
+ # Delete everything reachable from the directory named in "top",
+ # assuming there are no symbolic links.
+ # CAUTION: This is dangerous! For example, if top == '/', it
+ # could delete all your disk files.
+ import os
+ for root, dirs, files in os.walk(top, topdown=False):

+Process Management
+------------------
+
+These functions may be used to create and manage processes.

+have typed on a command line. For the C programmer, this is the ``argv[0]``
+passed to a program's :c:func:`main`. For example, ``os.execv('/bin/echo',
+['foo', 'bar'])`` will only print ``bar`` on standard output; ``foo`` will seem
+to be ignored.
+
+
+.. function:: abort()
+
+ Generate a :const:`SIGABRT` signal to the current process. On Unix, the default
+ behavior is to produce a core dump; on Windows, the process immediately returns
+ an exit code of ``3``. Be aware that calling this function will not call the
+ Python signal handler registered for :const:`SIGABRT` with
+ :func:`signal.signal`.

+ execlpe(file, arg0, arg1, ..., env)
+ execv(path, args)
+ execve(path, args, env)
+ execvp(file, args)
+ execvpe(file, args, env)
+
+ These functions all execute a new program, replacing the current process; they
+ do not return. On Unix, the new executable is loaded into the current process,
+ and will have the same process id as the caller. Errors will be reported as
+ :exc:`OSError` exceptions.
+
+ The current process is replaced immediately. Open file objects and
+ descriptors are not flushed, so if there may be data buffered
+ on these open files, you should flush them using
+ :func:`sys.stdout.flush` or :func:`os.fsync` before calling an
+ :func:`exec\*` function.
+
+ The "l" and "v" variants of the :func:`exec\*` functions differ in how
+ command-line arguments are passed. The "l" variants are perhaps the easiest
+ to work with if the number of parameters is fixed when the code is written; the
+ individual parameters simply become additional parameters to the :func:`execl\*`
+ functions. The "v" variants are good when the number of parameters is
+ variable, with the arguments being passed in a list or tuple as the *args*
+ parameter. In either case, the arguments to the child process should start with
+ the name of the command being run, but this is not enforced.
+
+ The variants which include a "p" near the end (:func:`execlp`,
+ :func:`execlpe`, :func:`execvp`, and :func:`execvpe`) will use the
+ :envvar:`PATH` environment variable to locate the program *file*. When the
+ environment is being replaced (using one of the :func:`exec\*e` variants,
+ discussed in the next paragraph), the new environment is used as the source of
+ the :envvar:`PATH` variable. The other variants, :func:`execl`, :func:`execle`,
+ :func:`execv`, and :func:`execve`, will not use the :envvar:`PATH` variable to
+ locate the executable; *path* must contain an appropriate absolute or relative
+ path.
+
+ For :func:`execle`, :func:`execlpe`, :func:`execve`, and :func:`execvpe` (note
+ that these all end in "e"), the *env* parameter must be a mapping which is
+ used to define the environment variables for the new process (these are used
+ instead of the current process' environment); the functions :func:`execl`,
+ :func:`execlp`, :func:`execv`, and :func:`execvp` all cause the new process to
+ inherit the environment of the current process.

+
+.. function:: startfile(path[, operation])
+
+ Start a file with its associated application.
+
+ When *operation* is not specified or ``'open'``, this acts like double-clicking
+ the file in Windows Explorer, or giving the file name as an argument to the
+ :program:`start` command from the interactive command shell: the file is opened
+ with whatever application (if any) its extension is associated.
+
+ When another *operation* is given, it must be a "command verb" that specifies
+ what should be done with the file. Common verbs documented by Microsoft are
+ ``'print'`` and ``'edit'`` (to be used on files) as well as ``'explore'`` and
+ ``'find'`` (to be used on directories).
+
+ :func:`startfile` returns as soon as the associated application is launched.
+ There is no option to wait for the application to close, and no way to retrieve
+ the application's exit status. The *path* parameter is relative to the current
+ directory. If you want to use an absolute path, make sure the first character
+ is not a slash (``'/'``); the underlying Win32 :c:func:`ShellExecute` function
+ doesn't work if it is. Use the :func:`os.path.normpath` function to ensure that

+.. function:: system(command)
+
+ Execute the command (a string) in a subshell. This is implemented by calling
+ the Standard C function :c:func:`system`, and has the same limitations.
+ Changes to :data:`sys.stdin`, etc. are not reflected in the environment of the
+ executed command.
+
+ On Unix, the return value is the exit status of the process encoded in the
+ format specified for :func:`wait`. Note that POSIX does not specify the meaning
+ of the return value of the C :c:func:`system` function, so the return value of
+ the Python function is system-dependent.
+
+ On Windows, the return value is that returned by the system shell after running
+ *command*, given by the Windows environment variable :envvar:`COMSPEC`: on
+ :program:`command.com` systems (Windows 95, 98 and ME) this is always ``0``; on
+ :program:`cmd.exe` systems (Windows NT, 2000 and XP) this is the exit status of
+ the command run; on systems using a non-native shell, consult your shell
+ documentation.
+
+ The :mod:`subprocess` module provides more powerful facilities for spawning new

+
+
+.. function:: waitpid(pid, options)
+
+ The details of this function differ on Unix and Windows.
+
+ On Unix: Wait for completion of a child process given by process id *pid*, and
+ return a tuple containing its process id and exit status indication (encoded as
+ for :func:`wait`). The semantics of the call are affected by the value of the
+ integer *options*, which should be ``0`` for normal operation.
+
+ If *pid* is greater than ``0``, :func:`waitpid` requests status information for
+ that specific process. If *pid* is ``0``, the request is for the status of any
+ child in the process group of the current process. If *pid* is ``-1``, the
+ request pertains to any child of the current process. If *pid* is less than
+ ``-1``, status is requested for any process in the process group ``-pid`` (the
+ absolute value of *pid*).
+
+ An :exc:`OSError` is raised with the value of errno when the syscall
+ returns -1.
+
+ On Windows: Wait for completion of a process given by process handle *pid*, and
+ return a tuple containing *pid*, and its exit status shifted left by 8 bits
+ (shifting makes cross-platform use of the function easier). A *pid* less than or
+ equal to ``0`` has no special meaning on Windows, and raises an exception. The
+ value of integer *options* has no effect. *pid* can refer to any process whose
+ id is known, not necessarily a child process. The :func:`spawn` functions called
+ with :const:`P_NOWAIT` return suitable process handles.
+

+
+ The string used to separate (or, rather, terminate) lines on the current

+
+:mod:`ossaudiodev` --- Access to OSS-compatible audio devices
+=============================================================
+
+.. module:: ossaudiodev
+ :platform: Linux, FreeBSD
+ :synopsis: Access to OSS-compatible audio devices.
+
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+This module allows you to access the OSS (Open Sound System) audio interface.
+OSS is available for a wide range of open-source and commercial Unices, and is
+the standard audio interface for Linux and recent versions of FreeBSD.
+
+.. Things will get more complicated for future Linux versions, since
+ ALSA is in the standard kernel as of 2.5.x. Presumably if you
+ use ALSA, you'll have to make sure its OSS compatibility layer
+ is active to use ossaudiodev, but you're gonna need it for the vast
+ majority of Linux audio apps anyway.
+
+ Sounds like things are also complicated for other BSDs. In response
+ to my python-dev query, Thomas Wouters said:
+
+ > Likewise, googling shows OpenBSD also uses OSS/Free -- the commercial
+ > OSS installation manual tells you to remove references to OSS/Free from the
+ > kernel :)
+
+ but Aleksander Piotrowsk actually has an OpenBSD box, and he quotes
+ from its <soundcard.h>:
+ > * WARNING! WARNING!
+ > * This is an OSS (Linux) audio emulator.
+ > * Use the Native NetBSD API for developing new code, and this
+ > * only for compiling Linux programs.
+
+ There's also an ossaudio manpage on OpenBSD that explains things
+ further. Presumably NetBSD and OpenBSD have a different standard
+ audio interface. That's the great thing about standards, there are so
+ many to choose from ... ;-)
+
+ This probably all warrants a footnote or two, but I don't understand
+ things well enough right now to write it! --GPW
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ `Open Sound System Programmer's Guide <http://www.opensound.com/pguide/oss.pdf>`_
+ the official documentation for the OSS C API
+
+ The module defines a large number of constants supplied by the OSS device
+ driver; see ``<sys/soundcard.h>`` on either Linux or FreeBSD for a listing .
+
+:mod:`ossaudiodev` defines the following variables and functions:
+
+
+.. exception:: OSSAudioError
+
+ This exception is raised on certain errors. The argument is a string describing
+ what went wrong.
+
+ (If :mod:`ossaudiodev` receives an error from a system call such as
+ :c:func:`open`, :c:func:`write`, or :c:func:`ioctl`, it raises :exc:`IOError`.
+ Errors detected directly by :mod:`ossaudiodev` result in :exc:`OSSAudioError`.)
+
+ (For backwards compatibility, the exception class is also available as
+ ``ossaudiodev.error``.)
+
+
+.. function:: open(mode)
+ open(device, mode)
+
+ Open an audio device and return an OSS audio device object. This object
+ supports many file-like methods, such as :meth:`read`, :meth:`write`, and
+ :meth:`fileno` (although there are subtle differences between conventional Unix
+ read/write semantics and those of OSS audio devices). It also supports a number
+ of audio-specific methods; see below for the complete list of methods.
+
+ *device* is the audio device filename to use. If it is not specified, this
+ module first looks in the environment variable :envvar:`AUDIODEV` for a device
+ to use. If not found, it falls back to :file:`/dev/dsp`.
+
+ *mode* is one of ``'r'`` for read-only (record) access, ``'w'`` for
+ write-only (playback) access and ``'rw'`` for both. Since many sound cards
+ only allow one process to have the recorder or player open at a time, it is a
+ good idea to open the device only for the activity needed. Further, some
+ sound cards are half-duplex: they can be opened for reading or writing, but
+ not both at once.
+
+ Note the unusual calling syntax: the *first* argument is optional, and the
+ second is required. This is a historical artifact for compatibility with the
+ older :mod:`linuxaudiodev` module which :mod:`ossaudiodev` supersedes.
+
+ .. XXX it might also be motivated
+ by my unfounded-but-still-possibly-true belief that the default
+ audio device varies unpredictably across operating systems. -GW
+
+
+.. function:: openmixer([device])
+
+ Open a mixer device and return an OSS mixer device object. *device* is the
+ mixer device filename to use. If it is not specified, this module first looks
+ in the environment variable :envvar:`MIXERDEV` for a device to use. If not
+ found, it falls back to :file:`/dev/mixer`.
+
+
+.. _ossaudio-device-objects:
+
+Audio Device Objects
+--------------------
+
+Before you can write to or read from an audio device, you must call three
+methods in the correct order:
+
+#. :meth:`setfmt` to set the output format
+
+#. :meth:`channels` to set the number of channels
+
+#. :meth:`speed` to set the sample rate
+
+Alternately, you can use the :meth:`setparameters` method to set all three audio
+parameters at once. This is more convenient, but may not be as flexible in all
+cases.
+
+The audio device objects returned by :func:`.open` define the following methods
+and (read-only) attributes:
+
+
+.. method:: oss_audio_device.close()
+
+ Explicitly close the audio device. When you are done writing to or reading from
+ an audio device, you should explicitly close it. A closed device cannot be used
+ again.
+
+
+.. method:: oss_audio_device.fileno()
+
+ Return the file descriptor associated with the device.
+
+
+.. method:: oss_audio_device.read(size)
+
+ Read *size* bytes from the audio input and return them as a Python string.
+ Unlike most Unix device drivers, OSS audio devices in blocking mode (the
+ default) will block :func:`read` until the entire requested amount of data is
+ available.
+
+
+.. method:: oss_audio_device.write(data)
+
+ Write the Python string *data* to the audio device and return the number of
+ bytes written. If the audio device is in blocking mode (the default), the
+ entire string is always written (again, this is different from usual Unix device
+ semantics). If the device is in non-blocking mode, some data may not be written
+ ---see :meth:`writeall`.
+
+
+.. method:: oss_audio_device.writeall(data)
+
+ Write the entire Python string *data* to the audio device: waits until the audio
+ device is able to accept data, writes as much data as it will accept, and
+ repeats until *data* has been completely written. If the device is in blocking
+ mode (the default), this has the same effect as :meth:`write`; :meth:`writeall`
+ is only useful in non-blocking mode. Has no return value, since the amount of
+ data written is always equal to the amount of data supplied.
+
+The following methods each map to exactly one :func:`ioctl` system call. The
+correspondence is obvious: for example, :meth:`setfmt` corresponds to the
+``SNDCTL_DSP_SETFMT`` ioctl, and :meth:`sync` to ``SNDCTL_DSP_SYNC`` (this can
+be useful when consulting the OSS documentation). If the underlying
+:func:`ioctl` fails, they all raise :exc:`IOError`.
+
+
+.. method:: oss_audio_device.nonblock()
+
+ Put the device into non-blocking mode. Once in non-blocking mode, there is no
+ way to return it to blocking mode.
+
+
+.. method:: oss_audio_device.getfmts()
+
+ Return a bitmask of the audio output formats supported by the soundcard. Some
+ of the formats supported by OSS are:
+
+ +-------------------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | Format | Description |
+ +=========================+=============================================+
+ | :const:`AFMT_MU_LAW` | a logarithmic encoding (used by Sun ``.au`` |
+ | | files and :file:`/dev/audio`) |
+ +-------------------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | :const:`AFMT_A_LAW` | a logarithmic encoding |
+ +-------------------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | :const:`AFMT_IMA_ADPCM` | a 4:1 compressed format defined by the |
+ | | Interactive Multimedia Association |
+ +-------------------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | :const:`AFMT_U8` | Unsigned, 8-bit audio |
+ +-------------------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | :const:`AFMT_S16_LE` | Signed, 16-bit audio, little-endian byte |
+ | | order (as used by Intel processors) |
+ +-------------------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | :const:`AFMT_S16_BE` | Signed, 16-bit audio, big-endian byte order |
+ | | (as used by 68k, PowerPC, Sparc) |
+ +-------------------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | :const:`AFMT_S8` | Signed, 8 bit audio |
+ +-------------------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | :const:`AFMT_U16_LE` | Unsigned, 16-bit little-endian audio |
+ +-------------------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | :const:`AFMT_U16_BE` | Unsigned, 16-bit big-endian audio |
+ +-------------------------+---------------------------------------------+
+
+ Consult the OSS documentation for a full list of audio formats, and note that
+ most devices support only a subset of these formats. Some older devices only
+ support :const:`AFMT_U8`; the most common format used today is
+ :const:`AFMT_S16_LE`.
+
+
+.. method:: oss_audio_device.setfmt(format)
+
+ Try to set the current audio format to *format*---see :meth:`getfmts` for a
+ list. Returns the audio format that the device was set to, which may not be the
+ requested format. May also be used to return the current audio format---do this
+ by passing an "audio format" of :const:`AFMT_QUERY`.
+
+
+.. method:: oss_audio_device.channels(nchannels)
+
+ Set the number of output channels to *nchannels*. A value of 1 indicates
+ monophonic sound, 2 stereophonic. Some devices may have more than 2 channels,
+ and some high-end devices may not support mono. Returns the number of channels
+ the device was set to.
+
+
+.. method:: oss_audio_device.speed(samplerate)
+
+ Try to set the audio sampling rate to *samplerate* samples per second. Returns
+ the rate actually set. Most sound devices don't support arbitrary sampling
+ rates. Common rates are:
+
+ +-------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | Rate | Description |
+ +=======+===========================================+
+ | 8000 | default rate for :file:`/dev/audio` |
+ +-------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | 11025 | speech recording |
+ +-------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | 22050 | |
+ +-------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | 44100 | CD quality audio (at 16 bits/sample and 2 |
+ | | channels) |
+ +-------+-------------------------------------------+
+ | 96000 | DVD quality audio (at 24 bits/sample) |
+ +-------+-------------------------------------------+
+
+
+.. method:: oss_audio_device.sync()
+
+ Wait until the sound device has played every byte in its buffer. (This happens
+ implicitly when the device is closed.) The OSS documentation recommends closing
+ and re-opening the device rather than using :meth:`sync`.
+
+
+.. method:: oss_audio_device.reset()
+
+ Immediately stop playing or recording and return the device to a state where it
+ can accept commands. The OSS documentation recommends closing and re-opening
+ the device after calling :meth:`reset`.
+
+
+.. method:: oss_audio_device.post()
+
+ Tell the driver that there is likely to be a pause in the output, making it
+ possible for the device to handle the pause more intelligently. You might use
+ this after playing a spot sound effect, before waiting for user input, or before
+ doing disk I/O.
+
+The following convenience methods combine several ioctls, or one ioctl and some
+simple calculations.
+
+
+.. method:: oss_audio_device.setparameters(format, nchannels, samplerate[, strict=False])
+
+ Set the key audio sampling parameters---sample format, number of channels, and
+ sampling rate---in one method call. *format*, *nchannels*, and *samplerate*
+ should be as specified in the :meth:`setfmt`, :meth:`channels`, and
+ :meth:`speed` methods. If *strict* is true, :meth:`setparameters` checks to
+ see if each parameter was actually set to the requested value, and raises
+ :exc:`OSSAudioError` if not. Returns a tuple (*format*, *nchannels*,
+ *samplerate*) indicating the parameter values that were actually set by the
+ device driver (i.e., the same as the return values of :meth:`setfmt`,
+ :meth:`channels`, and :meth:`speed`).
+
+ For example, ::
+
+ (fmt, channels, rate) = dsp.setparameters(fmt, channels, rate)
+
+ is equivalent to ::
+
+ fmt = dsp.setfmt(fmt)
+ channels = dsp.channels(channels)
+ rate = dsp.rate(channels)
+
+
+.. method:: oss_audio_device.bufsize()
+
+ Returns the size of the hardware buffer, in samples.
+
+
+.. method:: oss_audio_device.obufcount()
+
+ Returns the number of samples that are in the hardware buffer yet to be played.
+
+
+.. method:: oss_audio_device.obuffree()
+
+ Returns the number of samples that could be queued into the hardware buffer to
+ be played without blocking.
+
+Audio device objects also support several read-only attributes:
+
+
+.. attribute:: oss_audio_device.closed
+
+ Boolean indicating whether the device has been closed.
+
+
+.. attribute:: oss_audio_device.name
+
+ String containing the name of the device file.
+
+
+.. attribute:: oss_audio_device.mode
+
+ The I/O mode for the file, either ``"r"``, ``"rw"``, or ``"w"``.
+
+
+.. _mixer-device-objects:
+
+Mixer Device Objects
+--------------------
+
+The mixer object provides two file-like methods:
+
+
+.. method:: oss_mixer_device.close()
+
+ This method closes the open mixer device file. Any further attempts to use the
+ mixer after this file is closed will raise an :exc:`IOError`.
+
+
+.. method:: oss_mixer_device.fileno()
+
+ Returns the file handle number of the open mixer device file.
+
+The remaining methods are specific to audio mixing:
+
+
+.. method:: oss_mixer_device.controls()
+
+ This method returns a bitmask specifying the available mixer controls ("Control"
+ being a specific mixable "channel", such as :const:`SOUND_MIXER_PCM` or
+ :const:`SOUND_MIXER_SYNTH`). This bitmask indicates a subset of all available
+ mixer controls---the :const:`SOUND_MIXER_\*` constants defined at module level.
+ To determine if, for example, the current mixer object supports a PCM mixer, use
+ the following Python code::
+
+ mixer=ossaudiodev.openmixer()
+ if mixer.controls() & (1 << ossaudiodev.SOUND_MIXER_PCM):
+ # PCM is supported
+ ... code ...
+
+ For most purposes, the :const:`SOUND_MIXER_VOLUME` (master volume) and
+ :const:`SOUND_MIXER_PCM` controls should suffice---but code that uses the mixer
+ should be flexible when it comes to choosing mixer controls. On the Gravis
+ Ultrasound, for example, :const:`SOUND_MIXER_VOLUME` does not exist.
+
+
+.. method:: oss_mixer_device.stereocontrols()
+
+ Returns a bitmask indicating stereo mixer controls. If a bit is set, the
+ corresponding control is stereo; if it is unset, the control is either
+ monophonic or not supported by the mixer (use in combination with
+ :meth:`controls` to determine which).
+
+ See the code example for the :meth:`controls` function for an example of getting
+ data from a bitmask.
+
+
+.. method:: oss_mixer_device.reccontrols()
+
+ Returns a bitmask specifying the mixer controls that may be used to record. See
+ the code example for :meth:`controls` for an example of reading from a bitmask.
+
+
+.. method:: oss_mixer_device.get(control)
+
+ Returns the volume of a given mixer control. The returned volume is a 2-tuple
+ ``(left_volume,right_volume)``. Volumes are specified as numbers from 0
+ (silent) to 100 (full volume). If the control is monophonic, a 2-tuple is still
+ returned, but both volumes are the same.
+
+ Raises :exc:`OSSAudioError` if an invalid control was is specified, or
+ :exc:`IOError` if an unsupported control is specified.
+
+
+.. method:: oss_mixer_device.set(control, (left, right))
+
+ Sets the volume for a given mixer control to ``(left,right)``. ``left`` and
+ ``right`` must be ints and between 0 (silent) and 100 (full volume). On
+ success, the new volume is returned as a 2-tuple. Note that this may not be
+ exactly the same as the volume specified, because of the limited resolution of
+ some soundcard's mixers.
+
+ Raises :exc:`OSSAudioError` if an invalid mixer control was specified, or if the
+ specified volumes were out-of-range.
+
+
+.. method:: oss_mixer_device.get_recsrc()
+
+ This method returns a bitmask indicating which control(s) are currently being
+ used as a recording source.
+
+
+.. method:: oss_mixer_device.set_recsrc(bitmask)
+
+ Call this function to specify a recording source. Returns a bitmask indicating
+ the new recording source (or sources) if successful; raises :exc:`IOError` if an
+ invalid source was specified. To set the current recording source to the
+ microphone input::
+
+ mixer.setrecsrc (1 << ossaudiodev.SOUND_MIXER_MIC)

+:mod:`parser` --- Access Python parse trees
+===========================================
+
+.. module:: parser
+ :synopsis: Access parse trees for Python source code.
+.. moduleauthor:: Fred L. Drake, Jr. <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Fred L. Drake, Jr. <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. Copyright 1995 Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University and Fred
+ L. Drake, Jr. This copyright notice must be distributed on all copies, but

+ elements in a distributed package in any way.
+
+.. index:: single: parsing; Python source code
+
+The :mod:`parser` module provides an interface to Python's internal parser and
+byte-code compiler. The primary purpose for this interface is to allow Python
+code to edit the parse tree of a Python expression and create executable code
+from this. This is better than trying to parse and modify an arbitrary Python
+code fragment as a string because parsing is performed in a manner identical to
+the code forming the application. It is also faster.
+
+.. note::
+
+ From Python 2.5 onward, it's much more convenient to cut in at the Abstract
+ Syntax Tree (AST) generation and compilation stage, using the :mod:`ast`
+ module.
+
+ The :mod:`parser` module exports the names documented here also with "st"
+ replaced by "ast"; this is a legacy from the time when there was no other
+ AST and has nothing to do with the AST found in Python 2.5. This is also the
+ reason for the functions' keyword arguments being called *ast*, not *st*.
+ The "ast" functions have been removed in Python 3.
+
+There are a few things to note about this module which are important to making
+use of the data structures created. This is not a tutorial on editing the parse
+trees for Python code, but some examples of using the :mod:`parser` module are
+presented.
+
+Most importantly, a good understanding of the Python grammar processed by the
+internal parser is required. For full information on the language syntax, refer
+to :ref:`reference-index`. The parser
+itself is created from a grammar specification defined in the file
+:file:`Grammar/Grammar` in the standard Python distribution. The parse trees
+stored in the ST objects created by this module are the actual output from the
+internal parser when created by the :func:`expr` or :func:`suite` functions,
+described below. The ST objects created by :func:`sequence2st` faithfully
+simulate those structures. Be aware that the values of the sequences which are
+considered "correct" will vary from one version of Python to another as the
+formal grammar for the language is revised. However, transporting code from one
+Python version to another as source text will always allow correct parse trees
+to be created in the target version, with the only restriction being that
+migrating to an older version of the interpreter will not support more recent
+language constructs. The parse trees are not typically compatible from one
+version to another, whereas source code has always been forward-compatible.
+
+Each element of the sequences returned by :func:`st2list` or :func:`st2tuple`
+has a simple form. Sequences representing non-terminal elements in the grammar
+always have a length greater than one. The first element is an integer which
+identifies a production in the grammar. These integers are given symbolic names
+in the C header file :file:`Include/graminit.h` and the Python module
+:mod:`symbol`. Each additional element of the sequence represents a component
+of the production as recognized in the input string: these are always sequences
+which have the same form as the parent. An important aspect of this structure
+which should be noted is that keywords used to identify the parent node type,
+such as the keyword :keyword:`if` in an :const:`if_stmt`, are included in the
+node tree without any special treatment. For example, the :keyword:`if` keyword
+is represented by the tuple ``(1, 'if')``, where ``1`` is the numeric value
+associated with all :const:`NAME` tokens, including variable and function names
+defined by the user. In an alternate form returned when line number information
+is requested, the same token might be represented as ``(1, 'if', 12)``, where
+the ``12`` represents the line number at which the terminal symbol was found.
+
+Terminal elements are represented in much the same way, but without any child
+elements and the addition of the source text which was identified. The example
+of the :keyword:`if` keyword above is representative. The various types of
+terminal symbols are defined in the C header file :file:`Include/token.h` and
+the Python module :mod:`token`.
+
+The ST objects are not required to support the functionality of this module,
+but are provided for three purposes: to allow an application to amortize the
+cost of processing complex parse trees, to provide a parse tree representation
+which conserves memory space when compared to the Python list or tuple
+representation, and to ease the creation of additional modules in C which
+manipulate parse trees. A simple "wrapper" class may be created in Python to
+hide the use of ST objects.
+
+The :mod:`parser` module defines functions for a few distinct purposes. The
+most important purposes are to create ST objects and to convert ST objects to
+other representations such as parse trees and compiled code objects, but there
+are also functions which serve to query the type of parse tree represented by an
+ST object.
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ Module :mod:`symbol`
+ Useful constants representing internal nodes of the parse tree.
+
+ Module :mod:`token`
+ Useful constants representing leaf nodes of the parse tree and functions for
+ testing node values.

+.. _creating-sts:
+
+Creating ST Objects
+-------------------
+
+ST objects may be created from source code or from a parse tree. When creating
+an ST object from source, different functions are used to create the ``'eval'``
+and ``'exec'`` forms.
+
+
+.. function:: expr(source)
+
+ The :func:`expr` function parses the parameter *source* as if it were an input
+ to ``compile(source, 'file.py', 'eval')``. If the parse succeeds, an ST object
+ is created to hold the internal parse tree representation, otherwise an
+ appropriate exception is raised.
+
+
+.. function:: suite(source)
+
+ The :func:`suite` function parses the parameter *source* as if it were an input
+ to ``compile(source, 'file.py', 'exec')``. If the parse succeeds, an ST object
+ is created to hold the internal parse tree representation, otherwise an
+ appropriate exception is raised.
+
+
+.. function:: sequence2st(sequence)
+
+ This function accepts a parse tree represented as a sequence and builds an
+ internal representation if possible. If it can validate that the tree conforms
+ to the Python grammar and all nodes are valid node types in the host version of
+ Python, an ST object is created from the internal representation and returned
+ to the called. If there is a problem creating the internal representation, or
+ if the tree cannot be validated, a :exc:`ParserError` exception is raised. An
+ ST object created this way should not be assumed to compile correctly; normal
+ exceptions raised by compilation may still be initiated when the ST object is
+ passed to :func:`compilest`. This may indicate problems not related to syntax
+ (such as a :exc:`MemoryError` exception), but may also be due to constructs such
+ as the result of parsing ``del f(0)``, which escapes the Python parser but is
+ checked by the bytecode compiler.
+
+ Sequences representing terminal tokens may be represented as either two-element
+ lists of the form ``(1, 'name')`` or as three-element lists of the form ``(1,
+ 'name', 56)``. If the third element is present, it is assumed to be a valid
+ line number. The line number may be specified for any subset of the terminal
+ symbols in the input tree.
+
+
+.. function:: tuple2st(sequence)
+
+ This is the same function as :func:`sequence2st`. This entry point is
+ maintained for backward compatibility.
+
+
+.. _converting-sts:
+
+Converting ST Objects
+---------------------
+
+ST objects, regardless of the input used to create them, may be converted to
+parse trees represented as list- or tuple- trees, or may be compiled into
+executable code objects. Parse trees may be extracted with or without line
+numbering information.
+
+
+.. function:: st2list(ast[, line_info])
+
+ This function accepts an ST object from the caller in *ast* and returns a
+ Python list representing the equivalent parse tree. The resulting list
+ representation can be used for inspection or the creation of a new parse tree in
+ list form. This function does not fail so long as memory is available to build
+ the list representation. If the parse tree will only be used for inspection,
+ :func:`st2tuple` should be used instead to reduce memory consumption and
+ fragmentation. When the list representation is required, this function is
+ significantly faster than retrieving a tuple representation and converting that
+ to nested lists.
+
+ If *line_info* is true, line number information will be included for all
+ terminal tokens as a third element of the list representing the token. Note
+ that the line number provided specifies the line on which the token *ends*.
+ This information is omitted if the flag is false or omitted.
+
+
+.. function:: st2tuple(ast[, line_info])
+
+ This function accepts an ST object from the caller in *ast* and returns a
+ Python tuple representing the equivalent parse tree. Other than returning a
+ tuple instead of a list, this function is identical to :func:`st2list`.
+
+ If *line_info* is true, line number information will be included for all
+ terminal tokens as a third element of the list representing the token. This
+ information is omitted if the flag is false or omitted.
+
+
+.. function:: compilest(ast, filename='<syntax-tree>')
+
+ .. index:: builtin: eval
+
+ The Python byte compiler can be invoked on an ST object to produce code objects
+ which can be used as part of an :keyword:`exec` statement or a call to the
+ built-in :func:`eval` function. This function provides the interface to the
+ compiler, passing the internal parse tree from *ast* to the parser, using the
+ source file name specified by the *filename* parameter. The default value
+ supplied for *filename* indicates that the source was an ST object.
+
+ Compiling an ST object may result in exceptions related to compilation; an
+ example would be a :exc:`SyntaxError` caused by the parse tree for ``del f(0)``:
+ this statement is considered legal within the formal grammar for Python but is
+ not a legal language construct. The :exc:`SyntaxError` raised for this
+ condition is actually generated by the Python byte-compiler normally, which is
+ why it can be raised at this point by the :mod:`parser` module. Most causes of
+ compilation failure can be diagnosed programmatically by inspection of the parse
+ tree.
+
+
+.. _querying-sts:
+
+Queries on ST Objects
+---------------------
+
+Two functions are provided which allow an application to determine if an ST was
+created as an expression or a suite. Neither of these functions can be used to
+determine if an ST was created from source code via :func:`expr` or
+:func:`suite` or from a parse tree via :func:`sequence2st`.
+
+
+.. function:: isexpr(ast)
+
+ .. index:: builtin: compile
+
+ When *ast* represents an ``'eval'`` form, this function returns true, otherwise
+ it returns false. This is useful, since code objects normally cannot be queried
+ for this information using existing built-in functions. Note that the code
+ objects created by :func:`compilest` cannot be queried like this either, and
+ are identical to those created by the built-in :func:`compile` function.
+
+
+.. function:: issuite(ast)
+
+ This function mirrors :func:`isexpr` in that it reports whether an ST object
+ represents an ``'exec'`` form, commonly known as a "suite." It is not safe to
+ assume that this function is equivalent to ``not isexpr(ast)``, as additional
+ syntactic fragments may be supported in the future.
+
+
+.. _st-errors:
+
+Exceptions and Error Handling
+-----------------------------
+
+The parser module defines a single exception, but may also pass other built-in
+exceptions from other portions of the Python runtime environment. See each
+function for information about the exceptions it can raise.
+
+
+.. exception:: ParserError
+
+ Exception raised when a failure occurs within the parser module. This is
+ generally produced for validation failures rather than the built-in
+ :exc:`SyntaxError` raised during normal parsing. The exception argument is
+ either a string describing the reason of the failure or a tuple containing a
+ sequence causing the failure from a parse tree passed to :func:`sequence2st`
+ and an explanatory string. Calls to :func:`sequence2st` need to be able to
+ handle either type of exception, while calls to other functions in the module
+ will only need to be aware of the simple string values.
+
+Note that the functions :func:`compilest`, :func:`expr`, and :func:`suite` may
+raise exceptions which are normally raised by the parsing and compilation
+process. These include the built in exceptions :exc:`MemoryError`,
+:exc:`OverflowError`, :exc:`SyntaxError`, and :exc:`SystemError`. In these
+cases, these exceptions carry all the meaning normally associated with them.
+Refer to the descriptions of each function for detailed information.
+
+
+.. _st-objects:
+
+ST Objects
+----------
+
+Ordered and equality comparisons are supported between ST objects. Pickling of
+ST objects (using the :mod:`pickle` module) is also supported.
+
+
+.. data:: STType
+
+ The type of the objects returned by :func:`expr`, :func:`suite` and
+ :func:`sequence2st`.
+
+ST objects have the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: ST.compile([filename])
+
+ Same as ``compilest(st, filename)``.
+
+
+.. method:: ST.isexpr()
+
+ Same as ``isexpr(st)``.
+
+
+.. method:: ST.issuite()
+
+ Same as ``issuite(st)``.
+
+
+.. method:: ST.tolist([line_info])
+
+ Same as ``st2list(st, line_info)``.
+
+
+.. method:: ST.totuple([line_info])
+
+ Same as ``st2tuple(st, line_info)``.
+
+
+Example: Emulation of :func:`compile`
+-------------------------------------
+
+While many useful operations may take place between parsing and bytecode
+generation, the simplest operation is to do nothing. For this purpose, using
+the :mod:`parser` module to produce an intermediate data structure is equivalent
+to the code ::
+
+ >>> code = compile('a + 5', 'file.py', 'eval')
+ >>> a = 5
+ >>> eval(code)
+ 10
+
+The equivalent operation using the :mod:`parser` module is somewhat longer, and
+allows the intermediate internal parse tree to be retained as an ST object::
+
+ >>> import parser
+ >>> st = parser.expr('a + 5')
+ >>> code = st.compile('file.py')
+ >>> a = 5
+ >>> eval(code)
+ 10
+
+An application which needs both ST and code objects can package this code into
+readily available functions::
+
+ import parser
+
+ def load_suite(source_string):
+ st = parser.suite(source_string)
+ return st, st.compile()
+
+ def load_expression(source_string):
+ st = parser.expr(source_string)
+ return st, st.compile()

+.. _debugger:
+
+:mod:`pdb` --- The Python Debugger
+==================================
+
+.. module:: pdb
+ :synopsis: The Python debugger for interactive interpreters.
+
+
+.. index:: single: debugging
+
+The module :mod:`pdb` defines an interactive source code debugger for Python
+programs. It supports setting (conditional) breakpoints and single stepping at
+the source line level, inspection of stack frames, source code listing, and
+evaluation of arbitrary Python code in the context of any stack frame. It also
+supports post-mortem debugging and can be called under program control.
+
+.. index::
+ single: Pdb (class in pdb)
+ module: bdb
+ module: cmd
+
+The debugger is extensible --- it is actually defined as the class :class:`Pdb`.
+This is currently undocumented but easily understood by reading the source. The
+extension interface uses the modules :mod:`bdb` and :mod:`cmd`.
+
+The debugger's prompt is ``(Pdb)``. Typical usage to run a program under control
+of the debugger is::
+
+ >>> import pdb
+ >>> import mymodule
+ >>> pdb.run('mymodule.test()')
+ > <string>(0)?()
+ (Pdb) continue
+ > <string>(1)?()
+ (Pdb) continue
+ NameError: 'spam'
+ > <string>(1)?()
+ (Pdb)
+
+:file:`pdb.py` can also be invoked as a script to debug other scripts. For
+example::
+
+ python -m pdb myscript.py
+
+When invoked as a script, pdb will automatically enter post-mortem debugging if
+the program being debugged exits abnormally. After post-mortem debugging (or
+after normal exit of the program), pdb will restart the program. Automatic
+restarting preserves pdb's state (such as breakpoints) and in most cases is more
+useful than quitting the debugger upon program's exit.
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.4
+ Restarting post-mortem behavior added.
+
+The typical usage to break into the debugger from a running program is to
+insert ::
+
+ import pdb; pdb.set_trace()
+
+at the location you want to break into the debugger. You can then step through
+the code following this statement, and continue running without the debugger using
+the ``c`` command.
+
+The typical usage to inspect a crashed program is::
+
+ >>> import pdb
+ >>> import mymodule
+ >>> mymodule.test()
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
+ File "./mymodule.py", line 4, in test
+ test2()
+ File "./mymodule.py", line 3, in test2
+ print spam
+ NameError: spam
+ >>> pdb.pm()
+ > ./mymodule.py(3)test2()
+ -> print spam
+ (Pdb)
+
+
+The module defines the following functions; each enters the debugger in a
+slightly different way:
+
+.. function:: run(statement[, globals[, locals]])
+
+ Execute the *statement* (given as a string) under debugger control. The
+ debugger prompt appears before any code is executed; you can set breakpoints and
+ type ``continue``, or you can step through the statement using ``step`` or
+ ``next`` (all these commands are explained below). The optional *globals* and
+ *locals* arguments specify the environment in which the code is executed; by
+ default the dictionary of the module :mod:`__main__` is used. (See the
+ explanation of the :keyword:`exec` statement or the :func:`eval` built-in
+ function.)
+
+
+.. function:: runeval(expression[, globals[, locals]])
+
+ Evaluate the *expression* (given as a string) under debugger control. When
+ :func:`runeval` returns, it returns the value of the expression. Otherwise this
+ function is similar to :func:`run`.
+
+
+.. function:: runcall(function[, argument, ...])
+
+ Call the *function* (a function or method object, not a string) with the given
+ arguments. When :func:`runcall` returns, it returns whatever the function call
+ returned. The debugger prompt appears as soon as the function is entered.
+
+
+.. function:: set_trace()
+
+ Enter the debugger at the calling stack frame. This is useful to hard-code a
+ breakpoint at a given point in a program, even if the code is not otherwise
+ being debugged (e.g. when an assertion fails).
+
+
+.. function:: post_mortem([traceback])
+
+ Enter post-mortem debugging of the given *traceback* object. If no
+ *traceback* is given, it uses the one of the exception that is currently
+ being handled (an exception must be being handled if the default is to be
+ used).
+
+
+.. function:: pm()
+
+ Enter post-mortem debugging of the traceback found in
+ :data:`sys.last_traceback`.
+
+
+The ``run*`` functions and :func:`set_trace` are aliases for instantiating the
+:class:`Pdb` class and calling the method of the same name. If you want to
+access further features, you have to do this yourself:
+
+.. class:: Pdb(completekey='tab', stdin=None, stdout=None, skip=None)
+
+ :class:`Pdb` is the debugger class.
+
+ The *completekey*, *stdin* and *stdout* arguments are passed to the
+ underlying :class:`cmd.Cmd` class; see the description there.
+
+ The *skip* argument, if given, must be an iterable of glob-style module name
+ patterns. The debugger will not step into frames that originate in a module
+ that matches one of these patterns. [1]_
+
+ Example call to enable tracing with *skip*::
+
+ import pdb; pdb.Pdb(skip=['django.*']).set_trace()
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+ The *skip* argument.
+
+ .. method:: run(statement[, globals[, locals]])
+ runeval(expression[, globals[, locals]])
+ runcall(function[, argument, ...])
+ set_trace()
+
+ See the documentation for the functions explained above.
+
+
+.. _debugger-commands:
+
+Debugger Commands
+=================
+
+The debugger recognizes the following commands. Most commands can be
+abbreviated to one or two letters; e.g. ``h(elp)`` means that either ``h`` or
+``help`` can be used to enter the help command (but not ``he`` or ``hel``, nor
+``H`` or ``Help`` or ``HELP``). Arguments to commands must be separated by
+whitespace (spaces or tabs). Optional arguments are enclosed in square brackets
+(``[]``) in the command syntax; the square brackets must not be typed.
+Alternatives in the command syntax are separated by a vertical bar (``|``).
+
+Entering a blank line repeats the last command entered. Exception: if the last
+command was a ``list`` command, the next 11 lines are listed.
+
+Commands that the debugger doesn't recognize are assumed to be Python statements
+and are executed in the context of the program being debugged. Python
+statements can also be prefixed with an exclamation point (``!``). This is a
+powerful way to inspect the program being debugged; it is even possible to
+change a variable or call a function. When an exception occurs in such a
+statement, the exception name is printed but the debugger's state is not
+changed.
+
+Multiple commands may be entered on a single line, separated by ``;;``. (A
+single ``;`` is not used as it is the separator for multiple commands in a line
+that is passed to the Python parser.) No intelligence is applied to separating
+the commands; the input is split at the first ``;;`` pair, even if it is in the
+middle of a quoted string.
+
+The debugger supports aliases. Aliases can have parameters which allows one a
+certain level of adaptability to the context under examination.
+
+.. index::
+ pair: .pdbrc; file
+ triple: debugger; configuration; file
+
+If a file :file:`.pdbrc` exists in the user's home directory or in the current
+directory, it is read in and executed as if it had been typed at the debugger
+prompt. This is particularly useful for aliases. If both files exist, the one
+in the home directory is read first and aliases defined there can be overridden
+by the local file.
+
+h(elp) [*command*]
+ Without argument, print the list of available commands. With a *command* as
+ argument, print help about that command. ``help pdb`` displays the full
+ documentation file; if the environment variable :envvar:`PAGER` is defined, the
+ file is piped through that command instead. Since the *command* argument must
+ be an identifier, ``help exec`` must be entered to get help on the ``!``
+ command.
+
+w(here)
+ Print a stack trace, with the most recent frame at the bottom. An arrow
+ indicates the current frame, which determines the context of most commands.
+
+d(own)
+ Move the current frame one level down in the stack trace (to a newer frame).
+
+u(p)
+ Move the current frame one level up in the stack trace (to an older frame).
+
+b(reak) [[*filename*:]\ *lineno* | *function*\ [, *condition*]]
+ With a *lineno* argument, set a break there in the current file. With a
+ *function* argument, set a break at the first executable statement within that
+ function. The line number may be prefixed with a filename and a colon, to
+ specify a breakpoint in another file (probably one that hasn't been loaded yet).
+ The file is searched on ``sys.path``. Note that each breakpoint is assigned a
+ number to which all the other breakpoint commands refer.
+
+ If a second argument is present, it is an expression which must evaluate to true
+ before the breakpoint is honored.
+
+ Without argument, list all breaks, including for each breakpoint, the number of
+ times that breakpoint has been hit, the current ignore count, and the associated
+ condition if any.
+
+tbreak [[*filename*:]\ *lineno* | *function*\ [, *condition*]]
+ Temporary breakpoint, which is removed automatically when it is first hit. The
+ arguments are the same as break.
+
+cl(ear) [*filename:lineno* | *bpnumber* [*bpnumber ...*]]
+ With a *filename:lineno* argument, clear all the breakpoints at this line.
+ With a space separated list of breakpoint numbers, clear those breakpoints.
+ Without argument, clear all breaks (but first ask confirmation).
+
+disable [*bpnumber* [*bpnumber ...*]]
+ Disables the breakpoints given as a space separated list of breakpoint numbers.
+ Disabling a breakpoint means it cannot cause the program to stop execution, but
+ unlike clearing a breakpoint, it remains in the list of breakpoints and can be
+ (re-)enabled.
+
+enable [*bpnumber* [*bpnumber ...*]]
+ Enables the breakpoints specified.
+
+ignore *bpnumber* [*count*]
+ Sets the ignore count for the given breakpoint number. If count is omitted, the
+ ignore count is set to 0. A breakpoint becomes active when the ignore count is
+ zero. When non-zero, the count is decremented each time the breakpoint is
+ reached and the breakpoint is not disabled and any associated condition
+ evaluates to true.
+
+condition *bpnumber* [*condition*]
+ Condition is an expression which must evaluate to true before the breakpoint is
+ honored. If condition is absent, any existing condition is removed; i.e., the
+ breakpoint is made unconditional.
+
+commands [*bpnumber*]
+ Specify a list of commands for breakpoint number *bpnumber*. The commands
+ themselves appear on the following lines. Type a line containing just 'end' to
+ terminate the commands. An example::
+
+ (Pdb) commands 1
+ (com) print some_variable
+ (com) end
+ (Pdb)
+
+ To remove all commands from a breakpoint, type commands and follow it
+ immediately with end; that is, give no commands.
+
+ With no *bpnumber* argument, commands refers to the last breakpoint set.
+
+ You can use breakpoint commands to start your program up again. Simply use the
+ continue command, or step, or any other command that resumes execution.
+
+ Specifying any command resuming execution (currently continue, step, next,
+ return, jump, quit and their abbreviations) terminates the command list (as if
+ that command was immediately followed by end). This is because any time you
+ resume execution (even with a simple next or step), you may encounter another
+ breakpoint--which could have its own command list, leading to ambiguities about
+ which list to execute.
+
+ If you use the 'silent' command in the command list, the usual message about
+ stopping at a breakpoint is not printed. This may be desirable for breakpoints
+ that are to print a specific message and then continue. If none of the other
+ commands print anything, you see no sign that the breakpoint was reached.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+s(tep)
+ Execute the current line, stop at the first possible occasion (either in a
+ function that is called or on the next line in the current function).
+
+n(ext)
+ Continue execution until the next line in the current function is reached or it
+ returns. (The difference between ``next`` and ``step`` is that ``step`` stops
+ inside a called function, while ``next`` executes called functions at (nearly)
+ full speed, only stopping at the next line in the current function.)
+
+unt(il)
+ Continue execution until the line with the line number greater than the
+ current one is reached or when returning from current frame.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+r(eturn)
+ Continue execution until the current function returns.
+
+c(ont(inue))
+ Continue execution, only stop when a breakpoint is encountered.
+
+j(ump) *lineno*
+ Set the next line that will be executed. Only available in the bottom-most
+ frame. This lets you jump back and execute code again, or jump forward to skip
+ code that you don't want to run.
+
+ It should be noted that not all jumps are allowed --- for instance it is not
+ possible to jump into the middle of a :keyword:`for` loop or out of a
+ :keyword:`finally` clause.
+
+l(ist) [*first*\ [, *last*]]
+ List source code for the current file. Without arguments, list 11 lines around
+ the current line or continue the previous listing. With one argument, list 11
+ lines around at that line. With two arguments, list the given range; if the
+ second argument is less than the first, it is interpreted as a count.
+
+a(rgs)
+ Print the argument list of the current function.
+
+p *expression*
+ Evaluate the *expression* in the current context and print its value.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ ``print`` can also be used, but is not a debugger command --- this executes the
+ Python :keyword:`print` statement.
+
+pp *expression*
+ Like the ``p`` command, except the value of the expression is pretty-printed
+ using the :mod:`pprint` module.
+
+alias [*name* [command]]
+ Creates an alias called *name* that executes *command*. The command must *not*
+ be enclosed in quotes. Replaceable parameters can be indicated by ``%1``,
+ ``%2``, and so on, while ``%*`` is replaced by all the parameters. If no
+ command is given, the current alias for *name* is shown. If no arguments are
+ given, all aliases are listed.
+
+ Aliases may be nested and can contain anything that can be legally typed at the
+ pdb prompt. Note that internal pdb commands *can* be overridden by aliases.
+ Such a command is then hidden until the alias is removed. Aliasing is
+ recursively applied to the first word of the command line; all other words in
+ the line are left alone.
+
+ As an example, here are two useful aliases (especially when placed in the
+ :file:`.pdbrc` file)::
+
+ #Print instance variables (usage "pi classInst")
+ alias pi for k in %1.__dict__.keys(): print "%1.",k,"=",%1.__dict__[k]
+ #Print instance variables in self
+ alias ps pi self
+
+unalias *name*
+ Deletes the specified alias.
+
+[!]\ *statement*
+ Execute the (one-line) *statement* in the context of the current stack frame.
+ The exclamation point can be omitted unless the first word of the statement
+ resembles a debugger command. To set a global variable, you can prefix the
+ assignment command with a ``global`` command on the same line, e.g.::
+
+ (Pdb) global list_options; list_options = ['-l']
+ (Pdb)
+
+run [*args* ...]
+ Restart the debugged Python program. If an argument is supplied, it is split
+ with "shlex" and the result is used as the new sys.argv. History, breakpoints,
+ actions and debugger options are preserved. "restart" is an alias for "run".
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+q(uit)
+ Quit from the debugger. The program being executed is aborted.
+
+
+.. rubric:: Footnotes
+
+.. [1] Whether a frame is considered to originate in a certain module
+ is determined by the ``__name__`` in the frame globals.

+.. sectionauthor:: Barry Warsaw <[email protected]>
+
+The :mod:`pickle` module implements a fundamental, but powerful algorithm for
+serializing and de-serializing a Python object structure. "Pickling" is the
+process whereby a Python object hierarchy is converted into a byte stream, and
+"unpickling" is the inverse operation, whereby a byte stream is converted back
+into an object hierarchy. Pickling (and unpickling) is alternatively known as
+"serialization", "marshalling," [#]_ or "flattening", however, to avoid
+confusion, the terms used here are "pickling" and "unpickling".
+
+This documentation describes both the :mod:`pickle` module and the
+:mod:`cPickle` module.
+
+.. warning::
+
+ The :mod:`pickle` module is not intended to be secure against erroneous or
+ maliciously constructed data. Never unpickle data received from an untrusted
+ or unauthenticated source.
+
+
+Relationship to other Python modules
+------------------------------------
+
+The :mod:`pickle` module has an optimized cousin called the :mod:`cPickle`
+module. As its name implies, :mod:`cPickle` is written in C, so it can be up to
+1000 times faster than :mod:`pickle`. However it does not support subclassing
+of the :func:`Pickler` and :func:`Unpickler` classes, because in :mod:`cPickle`
+these are functions, not classes. Most applications have no need for this
+functionality, and can benefit from the improved performance of :mod:`cPickle`.
+Other than that, the interfaces of the two modules are nearly identical; the
+common interface is described in this manual and differences are pointed out
+where necessary. In the following discussions, we use the term "pickle" to
+collectively describe the :mod:`pickle` and :mod:`cPickle` modules.
+
+The data streams the two modules produce are guaranteed to be interchangeable.
+
+Python has a more primitive serialization module called :mod:`marshal`, but in
+general :mod:`pickle` should always be the preferred way to serialize Python
+objects. :mod:`marshal` exists primarily to support Python's :file:`.pyc`
+files.
+
+The :mod:`pickle` module differs from :mod:`marshal` in several significant ways:
+
+* The :mod:`pickle` module keeps track of the objects it has already serialized,
+ so that later references to the same object won't be serialized again.
+ :mod:`marshal` doesn't do this.
+
+ This has implications both for recursive objects and object sharing. Recursive
+ objects are objects that contain references to themselves. These are not
+ handled by marshal, and in fact, attempting to marshal recursive objects will
+ crash your Python interpreter. Object sharing happens when there are multiple
+ references to the same object in different places in the object hierarchy being
+ serialized. :mod:`pickle` stores such objects only once, and ensures that all
+ other references point to the master copy. Shared objects remain shared, which
+ can be very important for mutable objects.
+
+* :mod:`marshal` cannot be used to serialize user-defined classes and their
+ instances. :mod:`pickle` can save and restore class instances transparently,
+ however the class definition must be importable and live in the same module as
+ when the object was stored.
+
+* The :mod:`marshal` serialization format is not guaranteed to be portable
+ across Python versions. Because its primary job in life is to support
+ :file:`.pyc` files, the Python implementers reserve the right to change the
+ serialization format in non-backwards compatible ways should the need arise.
+ The :mod:`pickle` serialization format is guaranteed to be backwards compatible
+ across Python releases.
+
+Note that serialization is a more primitive notion than persistence; although
+:mod:`pickle` reads and writes file objects, it does not handle the issue of
+naming persistent objects, nor the (even more complicated) issue of concurrent
+access to persistent objects. The :mod:`pickle` module can transform a complex
+object into a byte stream and it can transform the byte stream into an object
+with the same internal structure. Perhaps the most obvious thing to do with
+these byte streams is to write them onto a file, but it is also conceivable to
+send them across a network or store them in a database. The module
+:mod:`shelve` provides a simple interface to pickle and unpickle objects on
+DBM-style database files.
+
+
+Data stream format
+------------------
+
+.. index::
+ single: XDR
+ single: External Data Representation
+
+The data format used by :mod:`pickle` is Python-specific. This has the
+advantage that there are no restrictions imposed by external standards such as
+XDR (which can't represent pointer sharing); however it means that non-Python
+programs may not be able to reconstruct pickled Python objects.
+
+By default, the :mod:`pickle` data format uses a printable ASCII representation.
+This is slightly more voluminous than a binary representation. The big
+advantage of using printable ASCII (and of some other characteristics of
+:mod:`pickle`'s representation) is that for debugging or recovery purposes it is
+possible for a human to read the pickled file with a standard text editor.
+
+There are currently 3 different protocols which can be used for pickling.
+
+* Protocol version 0 is the original ASCII protocol and is backwards compatible
+ with earlier versions of Python.
+
+* Protocol version 1 is the old binary format which is also compatible with
+ earlier versions of Python.
+
+* Protocol version 2 was introduced in Python 2.3. It provides much more
+ efficient pickling of :term:`new-style class`\es.
+
+Refer to :pep:`307` for more information.
+
+If a *protocol* is not specified, protocol 0 is used. If *protocol* is specified
+as a negative value or :const:`HIGHEST_PROTOCOL`, the highest protocol version
+available will be used.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ Introduced the *protocol* parameter.
+
+A binary format, which is slightly more efficient, can be chosen by specifying a
+*protocol* version >= 1.
+
+
+Usage
+-----
+
+To serialize an object hierarchy, you first create a pickler, then you call the
+pickler's :meth:`dump` method. To de-serialize a data stream, you first create
+an unpickler, then you call the unpickler's :meth:`load` method. The
+:mod:`pickle` module provides the following constant:
+
+
+.. data:: HIGHEST_PROTOCOL
+
+ The highest protocol version available. This value can be passed as a
+ *protocol* value.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+.. note::
+
+ Be sure to always open pickle files created with protocols >= 1 in binary mode.
+ For the old ASCII-based pickle protocol 0 you can use either text mode or binary
+ mode as long as you stay consistent.
+
+ A pickle file written with protocol 0 in binary mode will contain lone linefeeds
+ as line terminators and therefore will look "funny" when viewed in Notepad or
+ other editors which do not support this format.
+
+The :mod:`pickle` module provides the following functions to make the pickling
+process more convenient:
+
+
+.. function:: dump(obj, file[, protocol])
+
+ Write a pickled representation of *obj* to the open file object *file*. This is
+ equivalent to ``Pickler(file, protocol).dump(obj)``.
+
+ If the *protocol* parameter is omitted, protocol 0 is used. If *protocol* is
+ specified as a negative value or :const:`HIGHEST_PROTOCOL`, the highest protocol
+ version will be used.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ Introduced the *protocol* parameter.
+
+ *file* must have a :meth:`write` method that accepts a single string argument.
+ It can thus be a file object opened for writing, a :mod:`StringIO` object, or
+ any other custom object that meets this interface.
+
+
+.. function:: load(file)
+
+ Read a string from the open file object *file* and interpret it as a pickle data
+ stream, reconstructing and returning the original object hierarchy. This is
+ equivalent to ``Unpickler(file).load()``.
+
+ *file* must have two methods, a :meth:`read` method that takes an integer
+ argument, and a :meth:`readline` method that requires no arguments. Both
+ methods should return a string. Thus *file* can be a file object opened for
+ reading, a :mod:`StringIO` object, or any other custom object that meets this
+ interface.
+
+ This function automatically determines whether the data stream was written in
+ binary mode or not.
+
+
+.. function:: dumps(obj[, protocol])
+
+ Return the pickled representation of the object as a string, instead of writing
+ it to a file.
+
+ If the *protocol* parameter is omitted, protocol 0 is used. If *protocol* is
+ specified as a negative value or :const:`HIGHEST_PROTOCOL`, the highest protocol
+ version will be used.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ The *protocol* parameter was added.
+
+
+.. function:: loads(string)
+
+ Read a pickled object hierarchy from a string. Characters in the string past
+ the pickled object's representation are ignored.
+
+The :mod:`pickle` module also defines three exceptions:
+
+
+.. exception:: PickleError
+
+ A common base class for the other exceptions defined below. This inherits from
+ :exc:`Exception`.
+
+
+.. exception:: PicklingError
+
+ This exception is raised when an unpicklable object is passed to the
+ :meth:`dump` method.
+
+
+.. exception:: UnpicklingError
+
+ This exception is raised when there is a problem unpickling an object. Note that
+ other exceptions may also be raised during unpickling, including (but not
+ necessarily limited to) :exc:`AttributeError`, :exc:`EOFError`,
+ :exc:`ImportError`, and :exc:`IndexError`.
+
+The :mod:`pickle` module also exports two callables [#]_, :class:`Pickler` and
+:class:`Unpickler`:
+
+
+.. class:: Pickler(file[, protocol])
+
+ This takes a file-like object to which it will write a pickle data stream.
+
+ If the *protocol* parameter is omitted, protocol 0 is used. If *protocol* is
+ specified as a negative value or :const:`HIGHEST_PROTOCOL`, the highest
+ protocol version will be used.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ Introduced the *protocol* parameter.
+
+ *file* must have a :meth:`write` method that accepts a single string argument.
+ It can thus be an open file object, a :mod:`StringIO` object, or any other
+ custom object that meets this interface.
+
+ :class:`Pickler` objects define one (or two) public methods:
+
+
+ .. method:: dump(obj)
+
+ Write a pickled representation of *obj* to the open file object given in the
+ constructor. Either the binary or ASCII format will be used, depending on the
+ value of the *protocol* argument passed to the constructor.
+
+
+ .. method:: clear_memo()
+
+ Clears the pickler's "memo". The memo is the data structure that remembers
+ which objects the pickler has already seen, so that shared or recursive objects
+ pickled by reference and not by value. This method is useful when re-using
+ picklers.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Prior to Python 2.3, :meth:`clear_memo` was only available on the picklers
+ created by :mod:`cPickle`. In the :mod:`pickle` module, picklers have an
+ instance variable called :attr:`memo` which is a Python dictionary. So to clear
+ the memo for a :mod:`pickle` module pickler, you could do the following::
+
+ mypickler.memo.clear()
+
+ Code that does not need to support older versions of Python should simply use
+ :meth:`clear_memo`.
+
+It is possible to make multiple calls to the :meth:`dump` method of the same
+:class:`Pickler` instance. These must then be matched to the same number of
+calls to the :meth:`load` method of the corresponding :class:`Unpickler`
+instance. If the same object is pickled by multiple :meth:`dump` calls, the
+:meth:`load` will all yield references to the same object. [#]_
+
+:class:`Unpickler` objects are defined as:
+
+
+.. class:: Unpickler(file)
+
+ This takes a file-like object from which it will read a pickle data stream.
+ This class automatically determines whether the data stream was written in
+ binary mode or not, so it does not need a flag as in the :class:`Pickler`
+ factory.
+
+ *file* must have two methods, a :meth:`read` method that takes an integer
+ argument, and a :meth:`readline` method that requires no arguments. Both
+ methods should return a string. Thus *file* can be a file object opened for
+ reading, a :mod:`StringIO` object, or any other custom object that meets this
+ interface.
+
+ :class:`Unpickler` objects have one (or two) public methods:
+
+
+ .. method:: load()
+
+ Read a pickled object representation from the open file object given in
+ the constructor, and return the reconstituted object hierarchy specified
+ therein.
+
+ This method automatically determines whether the data stream was written
+ in binary mode or not.
+
+
+ .. method:: noload()
+
+ This is just like :meth:`load` except that it doesn't actually create any
+ objects. This is useful primarily for finding what's called "persistent
+ ids" that may be referenced in a pickle data stream. See section
+ :ref:`pickle-protocol` below for more details.
+
+ **Note:** the :meth:`noload` method is currently only available on
+ :class:`Unpickler` objects created with the :mod:`cPickle` module.
+ :mod:`pickle` module :class:`Unpickler`\ s do not have the :meth:`noload`
+ method.
+
+
+What can be pickled and unpickled?
+----------------------------------
+
+The following types can be pickled:
+
+* ``None``, ``True``, and ``False``
+
+* integers, long integers, floating point numbers, complex numbers
+
+* normal and Unicode strings
+
+* tuples, lists, sets, and dictionaries containing only picklable objects
+
+* functions defined at the top level of a module
+
+* built-in functions defined at the top level of a module
+
+* classes that are defined at the top level of a module
+
+* instances of such classes whose :attr:`__dict__` or the result of calling
+ :meth:`__getstate__` is picklable (see section :ref:`pickle-protocol` for
+ details).
+
+Attempts to pickle unpicklable objects will raise the :exc:`PicklingError`
+exception; when this happens, an unspecified number of bytes may have already
+been written to the underlying file. Trying to pickle a highly recursive data
+structure may exceed the maximum recursion depth, a :exc:`RuntimeError` will be
+raised in this case. You can carefully raise this limit with
+:func:`sys.setrecursionlimit`.
+
+Note that functions (built-in and user-defined) are pickled by "fully qualified"
+name reference, not by value. This means that only the function name is
+pickled, along with the name of the module the function is defined in. Neither
+the function's code, nor any of its function attributes are pickled. Thus the
+defining module must be importable in the unpickling environment, and the module
+must contain the named object, otherwise an exception will be raised. [#]_
+
+Similarly, classes are pickled by named reference, so the same restrictions in
+the unpickling environment apply. Note that none of the class's code or data is
+pickled, so in the following example the class attribute ``attr`` is not
+restored in the unpickling environment::
+
+ class Foo:
+ attr = 'a class attr'
+
+ picklestring = pickle.dumps(Foo)
+
+These restrictions are why picklable functions and classes must be defined in
+the top level of a module.
+
+Similarly, when class instances are pickled, their class's code and data are not
+pickled along with them. Only the instance data are pickled. This is done on
+purpose, so you can fix bugs in a class or add methods to the class and still
+load objects that were created with an earlier version of the class. If you
+plan to have long-lived objects that will see many versions of a class, it may
+be worthwhile to put a version number in the objects so that suitable
+conversions can be made by the class's :meth:`__setstate__` method.
+
+
+.. _pickle-protocol:
+
+The pickle protocol
+-------------------
+
+.. currentmodule:: None
+
+This section describes the "pickling protocol" that defines the interface
+between the pickler/unpickler and the objects that are being serialized. This
+protocol provides a standard way for you to define, customize, and control how
+your objects are serialized and de-serialized. The description in this section
+doesn't cover specific customizations that you can employ to make the unpickling
+environment slightly safer from untrusted pickle data streams; see section
+:ref:`pickle-sub` for more details.
+
+
+.. _pickle-inst:
+
+Pickling and unpickling normal class instances
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. method:: object.__getinitargs__()
+
+ When a pickled class instance is unpickled, its :meth:`__init__` method is
+ normally *not* invoked. If it is desirable that the :meth:`__init__` method
+ be called on unpickling, an old-style class can define a method
+ :meth:`__getinitargs__`, which should return a *tuple* containing the
+ arguments to be passed to the class constructor (:meth:`__init__` for
+ example). The :meth:`__getinitargs__` method is called at pickle time; the
+ tuple it returns is incorporated in the pickle for the instance.
+
+.. method:: object.__getnewargs__()
+
+ New-style types can provide a :meth:`__getnewargs__` method that is used for
+ protocol 2. Implementing this method is needed if the type establishes some
+ internal invariants when the instance is created, or if the memory allocation
+ is affected by the values passed to the :meth:`__new__` method for the type
+ (as it is for tuples and strings). Instances of a :term:`new-style class`
+ ``C`` are created using ::
+
+ obj = C.__new__(C, *args)
+
+ where *args* is the result of calling :meth:`__getnewargs__` on the original
+ object; if there is no :meth:`__getnewargs__`, an empty tuple is assumed.
+
+.. method:: object.__getstate__()
+
+ Classes can further influence how their instances are pickled; if the class
+ defines the method :meth:`__getstate__`, it is called and the return state is
+ pickled as the contents for the instance, instead of the contents of the
+ instance's dictionary. If there is no :meth:`__getstate__` method, the
+ instance's :attr:`__dict__` is pickled.
+
+.. method:: object.__setstate__(state)
+
+ Upon unpickling, if the class also defines the method :meth:`__setstate__`,
+ it is called with the unpickled state. [#]_ If there is no
+ :meth:`__setstate__` method, the pickled state must be a dictionary and its
+ items are assigned to the new instance's dictionary. If a class defines both
+ :meth:`__getstate__` and :meth:`__setstate__`, the state object needn't be a
+ dictionary and these methods can do what they want. [#]_
+
+ .. note::
+
+ For :term:`new-style class`\es, if :meth:`__getstate__` returns a false
+ value, the :meth:`__setstate__` method will not be called.
+
+.. note::
+
+ At unpickling time, some methods like :meth:`__getattr__`,
+ :meth:`__getattribute__`, or :meth:`__setattr__` may be called upon the
+ instance. In case those methods rely on some internal invariant being
+ true, the type should implement either :meth:`__getinitargs__` or
+ :meth:`__getnewargs__` to establish such an invariant; otherwise, neither
+ :meth:`__new__` nor :meth:`__init__` will be called.
+
+
+Pickling and unpickling extension types
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. method:: object.__reduce__()
+
+ When the :class:`Pickler` encounters an object of a type it knows nothing
+ about --- such as an extension type --- it looks in two places for a hint of
+ how to pickle it. One alternative is for the object to implement a
+ :meth:`__reduce__` method. If provided, at pickling time :meth:`__reduce__`
+ will be called with no arguments, and it must return either a string or a
+ tuple.
+
+ If a string is returned, it names a global variable whose contents are
+ pickled as normal. The string returned by :meth:`__reduce__` should be the
+ object's local name relative to its module; the pickle module searches the
+ module namespace to determine the object's module.
+
+ When a tuple is returned, it must be between two and five elements long.
+ Optional elements can either be omitted, or ``None`` can be provided as their
+ value. The contents of this tuple are pickled as normal and used to
+ reconstruct the object at unpickling time. The semantics of each element
+ are:
+
+ * A callable object that will be called to create the initial version of the
+ object. The next element of the tuple will provide arguments for this
+ callable, and later elements provide additional state information that will
+ subsequently be used to fully reconstruct the pickled data.
+
+ In the unpickling environment this object must be either a class, a
+ callable registered as a "safe constructor" (see below), or it must have an
+ attribute :attr:`__safe_for_unpickling__` with a true value. Otherwise, an
+ :exc:`UnpicklingError` will be raised in the unpickling environment. Note
+ that as usual, the callable itself is pickled by name.
+
+ * A tuple of arguments for the callable object.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ Formerly, this argument could also be ``None``.
+
+ * Optionally, the object's state, which will be passed to the object's
+ :meth:`__setstate__` method as described in section :ref:`pickle-inst`. If
+ the object has no :meth:`__setstate__` method, then, as above, the value
+ must be a dictionary and it will be added to the object's :attr:`__dict__`.
+
+ * Optionally, an iterator (and not a sequence) yielding successive list
+ items. These list items will be pickled, and appended to the object using
+ either ``obj.append(item)`` or ``obj.extend(list_of_items)``. This is
+ primarily used for list subclasses, but may be used by other classes as
+ long as they have :meth:`append` and :meth:`extend` methods with the
+ appropriate signature. (Whether :meth:`append` or :meth:`extend` is used
+ depends on which pickle protocol version is used as well as the number of
+ items to append, so both must be supported.)
+
+ * Optionally, an iterator (not a sequence) yielding successive dictionary
+ items, which should be tuples of the form ``(key, value)``. These items
+ will be pickled and stored to the object using ``obj[key] = value``. This
+ is primarily used for dictionary subclasses, but may be used by other
+ classes as long as they implement :meth:`__setitem__`.
+
+.. method:: object.__reduce_ex__(protocol)
+
+ It is sometimes useful to know the protocol version when implementing
+ :meth:`__reduce__`. This can be done by implementing a method named
+ :meth:`__reduce_ex__` instead of :meth:`__reduce__`. :meth:`__reduce_ex__`,
+ when it exists, is called in preference over :meth:`__reduce__` (you may
+ still provide :meth:`__reduce__` for backwards compatibility). The
+ :meth:`__reduce_ex__` method will be called with a single integer argument,
+ the protocol version.
+
+ The :class:`object` class implements both :meth:`__reduce__` and
+ :meth:`__reduce_ex__`; however, if a subclass overrides :meth:`__reduce__`
+ but not :meth:`__reduce_ex__`, the :meth:`__reduce_ex__` implementation
+ detects this and calls :meth:`__reduce__`.
+
+An alternative to implementing a :meth:`__reduce__` method on the object to be
+pickled, is to register the callable with the :mod:`copy_reg` module. This
+module provides a way for programs to register "reduction functions" and
+constructors for user-defined types. Reduction functions have the same
+semantics and interface as the :meth:`__reduce__` method described above, except
+that they are called with a single argument, the object to be pickled.
+
+The registered constructor is deemed a "safe constructor" for purposes of
+unpickling as described above.
+
+
+Pickling and unpickling external objects
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. index::
+ single: persistent_id (pickle protocol)
+ single: persistent_load (pickle protocol)
+
+For the benefit of object persistence, the :mod:`pickle` module supports the
+notion of a reference to an object outside the pickled data stream. Such
+objects are referenced by a "persistent id", which is just an arbitrary string
+of printable ASCII characters. The resolution of such names is not defined by
+the :mod:`pickle` module; it will delegate this resolution to user defined
+functions on the pickler and unpickler. [#]_
+
+To define external persistent id resolution, you need to set the
+:attr:`persistent_id` attribute of the pickler object and the
+:attr:`persistent_load` attribute of the unpickler object.
+
+To pickle objects that have an external persistent id, the pickler must have a
+custom :func:`persistent_id` method that takes an object as an argument and
+returns either ``None`` or the persistent id for that object. When ``None`` is
+returned, the pickler simply pickles the object as normal. When a persistent id
+string is returned, the pickler will pickle that string, along with a marker so
+that the unpickler will recognize the string as a persistent id.
+
+To unpickle external objects, the unpickler must have a custom
+:func:`persistent_load` function that takes a persistent id string and returns
+the referenced object.
+
+Here's a silly example that *might* shed more light::
+
+ import pickle
+ from cStringIO import StringIO
+
+ src = StringIO()
+ p = pickle.Pickler(src)
+
+ def persistent_id(obj):
+ if hasattr(obj, 'x'):
+ return 'the value %d' % obj.x
+ else:
+ return None
+
+ p.persistent_id = persistent_id
+
+ class Integer:
+ def __init__(self, x):
+ self.x = x
+ def __str__(self):
+ return 'My name is integer %d' % self.x
+
+ i = Integer(7)
+ print i
+ p.dump(i)
+
+ datastream = src.getvalue()
+ print repr(datastream)
+ dst = StringIO(datastream)
+
+ up = pickle.Unpickler(dst)
+
+ class FancyInteger(Integer):
+ def __str__(self):
+ return 'I am the integer %d' % self.x
+
+ def persistent_load(persid):
+ if persid.startswith('the value '):
+ value = int(persid.split()[2])
+ return FancyInteger(value)
+ else:
+ raise pickle.UnpicklingError, 'Invalid persistent id'
+
+ up.persistent_load = persistent_load
+
+ j = up.load()
+ print j
+
+In the :mod:`cPickle` module, the unpickler's :attr:`persistent_load` attribute
+can also be set to a Python list, in which case, when the unpickler reaches a
+persistent id, the persistent id string will simply be appended to this list.
+This functionality exists so that a pickle data stream can be "sniffed" for
+object references without actually instantiating all the objects in a pickle.
+[#]_ Setting :attr:`persistent_load` to a list is usually used in conjunction
+with the :meth:`noload` method on the Unpickler.
+
+.. BAW: Both pickle and cPickle support something called inst_persistent_id()
+ which appears to give unknown types a second shot at producing a persistent
+ id. Since Jim Fulton can't remember why it was added or what it's for, I'm
+ leaving it undocumented.
+
+
+.. _pickle-sub:
+
+Subclassing Unpicklers
+----------------------
+
+.. index::
+ single: load_global() (pickle protocol)
+ single: find_global() (pickle protocol)
+
+By default, unpickling will import any class that it finds in the pickle data.
+You can control exactly what gets unpickled and what gets called by customizing
+your unpickler. Unfortunately, exactly how you do this is different depending
+on whether you're using :mod:`pickle` or :mod:`cPickle`. [#]_
+
+In the :mod:`pickle` module, you need to derive a subclass from
+:class:`Unpickler`, overriding the :meth:`load_global` method.
+:meth:`load_global` should read two lines from the pickle data stream where the
+first line will the name of the module containing the class and the second line
+will be the name of the instance's class. It then looks up the class, possibly
+importing the module and digging out the attribute, then it appends what it
+finds to the unpickler's stack. Later on, this class will be assigned to the
+:attr:`__class__` attribute of an empty class, as a way of magically creating an
+instance without calling its class's :meth:`__init__`. Your job (should you
+choose to accept it), would be to have :meth:`load_global` push onto the
+unpickler's stack, a known safe version of any class you deem safe to unpickle.
+It is up to you to produce such a class. Or you could raise an error if you
+want to disallow all unpickling of instances. If this sounds like a hack,
+you're right. Refer to the source code to make this work.
+
+Things are a little cleaner with :mod:`cPickle`, but not by much. To control
+what gets unpickled, you can set the unpickler's :attr:`find_global` attribute
+to a function or ``None``. If it is ``None`` then any attempts to unpickle
+instances will raise an :exc:`UnpicklingError`. If it is a function, then it
+should accept a module name and a class name, and return the corresponding class
+object. It is responsible for looking up the class and performing any necessary
+imports, and it may raise an error to prevent instances of the class from being
+unpickled.
+
+The moral of the story is that you should be really careful about the source of
+the strings your application unpickles.
+
+
+.. _pickle-example:
+
+Example
+-------
+
+For the simplest code, use the :func:`dump` and :func:`load` functions. Note
+that a self-referencing list is pickled and restored correctly. ::
+
+ import pickle
+
+ data1 = {'a': [1, 2.0, 3, 4+6j],
+ 'b': ('string', u'Unicode string'),
+ 'c': None}
+
+ selfref_list = [1, 2, 3]
+ selfref_list.append(selfref_list)
+
+ output = open('data.pkl', 'wb')
+
+ # Pickle dictionary using protocol 0.
+ pickle.dump(data1, output)
+
+ # Pickle the list using the highest protocol available.
+ pickle.dump(selfref_list, output, -1)
+
+ output.close()
+
+The following example reads the resulting pickled data. When reading a
+pickle-containing file, you should open the file in binary mode because you
+can't be sure if the ASCII or binary format was used. ::
+
+ import pprint, pickle
+
+ pkl_file = open('data.pkl', 'rb')
+
+ data1 = pickle.load(pkl_file)
+ pprint.pprint(data1)
+
+ data2 = pickle.load(pkl_file)
+ pprint.pprint(data2)
+
+ pkl_file.close()
+
+Here's a larger example that shows how to modify pickling behavior for a class.
+The :class:`TextReader` class opens a text file, and returns the line number and
+line contents each time its :meth:`readline` method is called. If a
+:class:`TextReader` instance is pickled, all attributes *except* the file object
+member are saved. When the instance is unpickled, the file is reopened, and
+reading resumes from the last location. The :meth:`__setstate__` and
+:meth:`__getstate__` methods are used to implement this behavior. ::
+
+ #!/usr/local/bin/python
+
+ class TextReader:
+ """Print and number lines in a text file."""
+ def __init__(self, file):
+ self.file = file
+ self.fh = open(file)
+ self.lineno = 0
+
+ def readline(self):
+ self.lineno = self.lineno + 1
+ line = self.fh.readline()
+ if not line:
+ return None
+ if line.endswith("\n"):
+ line = line[:-1]
+ return "%d: %s" % (self.lineno, line)
+
+ def __getstate__(self):
+ odict = self.__dict__.copy() # copy the dict since we change it
+ del odict['fh'] # remove filehandle entry
+ return odict
+
+ def __setstate__(self, dict):
+ fh = open(dict['file']) # reopen file
+ count = dict['lineno'] # read from file...
+ while count: # until line count is restored
+ fh.readline()
+ count = count - 1
+ self.__dict__.update(dict) # update attributes
+ self.fh = fh # save the file object
+
+A sample usage might be something like this::
+
+ >>> import TextReader
+ >>> obj = TextReader.TextReader("TextReader.py")
+ >>> obj.readline()
+ '1: #!/usr/local/bin/python'
+ >>> obj.readline()
+ '2: '
+ >>> obj.readline()
+ '3: class TextReader:'
+ >>> import pickle
+ >>> pickle.dump(obj, open('save.p', 'wb'))
+
+If you want to see that :mod:`pickle` works across Python processes, start
+another Python session, before continuing. What follows can happen from either
+the same process or a new process. ::
+
+ >>> import pickle
+ >>> reader = pickle.load(open('save.p', 'rb'))
+ >>> reader.readline()
+ '4: """Print and number lines in a text file."""'

+:mod:`cPickle` --- A faster :mod:`pickle`
+=========================================
+
+.. module:: cPickle
+ :synopsis: Faster version of pickle, but not subclassable.
+.. moduleauthor:: Jim Fulton <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Fred L. Drake, Jr. <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. index:: module: pickle
+
+The :mod:`cPickle` module supports serialization and de-serialization of Python
+objects, providing an interface and functionality nearly identical to the
+:mod:`pickle` module. There are several differences, the most important being
+performance and subclassability.
+
+First, :mod:`cPickle` can be up to 1000 times faster than :mod:`pickle` because
+the former is implemented in C. Second, in the :mod:`cPickle` module the
+callables :func:`Pickler` and :func:`Unpickler` are functions, not classes.
+This means that you cannot use them to derive custom pickling and unpickling
+subclasses. Most applications have no need for this functionality and should
+benefit from the greatly improved performance of the :mod:`cPickle` module.
+
+The pickle data stream produced by :mod:`pickle` and :mod:`cPickle` are
+identical, so it is possible to use :mod:`pickle` and :mod:`cPickle`
+interchangeably with existing pickles. [#]_
+
+There are additional minor differences in API between :mod:`cPickle` and
+:mod:`pickle`, however for most applications, they are interchangeable. More
+documentation is provided in the :mod:`pickle` module documentation, which
+includes a list of the documented differences.
+
+.. rubric:: Footnotes
+
+.. [#] Don't confuse this with the :mod:`marshal` module
+
+.. [#] In the :mod:`pickle` module these callables are classes, which you could
+ subclass to customize the behavior. However, in the :mod:`cPickle` module these
+ callables are factory functions and so cannot be subclassed. One common reason
+ to subclass is to control what objects can actually be unpickled. See section
+ :ref:`pickle-sub` for more details.
+
+.. [#] *Warning*: this is intended for pickling multiple objects without intervening
+ modifications to the objects or their parts. If you modify an object and then
+ pickle it again using the same :class:`Pickler` instance, the object is not
+ pickled again --- a reference to it is pickled and the :class:`Unpickler` will
+ return the old value, not the modified one. There are two problems here: (1)
+ detecting changes, and (2) marshalling a minimal set of changes. Garbage
+ Collection may also become a problem here.
+
+.. [#] The exception raised will likely be an :exc:`ImportError` or an
+ :exc:`AttributeError` but it could be something else.
+
+.. [#] These methods can also be used to implement copying class instances.
+
+.. [#] This protocol is also used by the shallow and deep copying operations defined in
+ the :mod:`copy` module.
+
+.. [#] The actual mechanism for associating these user defined functions is slightly
+ different for :mod:`pickle` and :mod:`cPickle`. The description given here
+ works the same for both implementations. Users of the :mod:`pickle` module
+ could also use subclassing to effect the same results, overriding the
+ :meth:`persistent_id` and :meth:`persistent_load` methods in the derived
+ classes.
+
+.. [#] We'll leave you with the image of Guido and Jim sitting around sniffing pickles
+ in their living rooms.
+
+.. [#] A word of caution: the mechanisms described here use internal attributes and
+ methods, which are subject to change in future versions of Python. We intend to
+ someday provide a common interface for controlling this behavior, which will
+ work in either :mod:`pickle` or :mod:`cPickle`.
+
+.. [#] Since the pickle data format is actually a tiny stack-oriented programming
+ language, and some freedom is taken in the encodings of certain objects, it is
+ possible that the two modules produce different data streams for the same input
+ objects. However it is guaranteed that they will always be able to read each
+ other's data streams.

+
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/pickletools.py`
+
+--------------
+
+This module contains various constants relating to the intimate details of the
+:mod:`pickle` module, some lengthy comments about the implementation, and a few
+useful functions for analyzing pickled data. The contents of this module are
+useful for Python core developers who are working on the :mod:`pickle` and

+probably won't find the :mod:`pickletools` module relevant.
+
+
+.. function:: dis(pickle, out=None, memo=None, indentlevel=4)
+
+ Outputs a symbolic disassembly of the pickle to the file-like object *out*,
+ defaulting to ``sys.stdout``. *pickle* can be a string or a file-like object.
+ *memo* can be a Python dictionary that will be used as the pickle's memo; it can
+ be used to perform disassemblies across multiple pickles created by the same
+ pickler. Successive levels, indicated by ``MARK`` opcodes in the stream, are
+ indented by *indentlevel* spaces.
+
+
+.. function:: genops(pickle)
+
+ Provides an :term:`iterator` over all of the opcodes in a pickle, returning a
+ sequence of ``(opcode, arg, pos)`` triples. *opcode* is an instance of an
+ :class:`OpcodeInfo` class; *arg* is the decoded value, as a Python object, of
+ the opcode's argument; *pos* is the position at which this opcode is located.
+ *pickle* can be a string or a file-like object.
+
+.. function:: optimize(picklestring)
+
+ Returns a new equivalent pickle string after eliminating unused ``PUT``
+ opcodes. The optimized pickle is shorter, takes less transmission time,
+ requires less storage space, and unpickles more efficiently.

+:mod:`pipes` --- Interface to shell pipelines
+=============================================
+
+.. module:: pipes
+ :platform: Unix
+ :synopsis: A Python interface to Unix shell pipelines.
+.. sectionauthor:: Moshe Zadka <[email protected]>
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/pipes.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`pipes` module defines a class to abstract the concept of a *pipeline*
+--- a sequence of converters from one file to another.
+
+Because the module uses :program:`/bin/sh` command lines, a POSIX or compatible
+shell for :func:`os.system` and :func:`os.popen` is required.
+
+
+.. class:: Template()
+
+ An abstraction of a pipeline.
+
+Example::
+
+ >>> import pipes
+ >>> t = pipes.Template()
+ >>> t.append('tr a-z A-Z', '--')
+ >>> f = t.open('pipefile', 'w')
+ >>> f.write('hello world')
+ >>> f.close()
+ >>> open('pipefile').read()
+ 'HELLO WORLD'
+
+
+.. function:: quote(s)
+
+ .. deprecated:: 1.6
+ Prior to Python 2.7, this function was not publicly documented. It is
+ finally exposed publicly in Python 3.3 as the
+ :func:`quote <shlex.quote>` function in the :mod:`shlex` module.
+
+ Return a shell-escaped version of the string *s*. The returned value is a
+ string that can safely be used as one token in a shell command line, for
+ cases where you cannot use a list.
+
+ This idiom would be unsafe::
+
+ >>> filename = 'somefile; rm -rf ~'
+ >>> command = 'ls -l {}'.format(filename)
+ >>> print command # executed by a shell: boom!
+ ls -l somefile; rm -rf ~
+
+ :func:`quote` lets you plug the security hole::
+
+ >>> command = 'ls -l {}'.format(quote(filename))
+ >>> print command
+ ls -l 'somefile; rm -rf ~'
+ >>> remote_command = 'ssh home {}'.format(quote(command))
+ >>> print remote_command
+ ssh home 'ls -l '"'"'somefile; rm -rf ~'"'"''
+
+ The quoting is compatible with UNIX shells and with :func:`shlex.split`:
+
+ >>> remote_command = shlex.split(remote_command)
+ >>> remote_command
+ ['ssh', 'home', "ls -l 'somefile; rm -rf ~'"]
+ >>> command = shlex.split(remote_command[-1])
+ >>> command
+ ['ls', '-l', 'somefile; rm -rf ~']
+
+
+.. _template-objects:
+
+Template Objects
+----------------
+
+Template objects following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: Template.reset()
+
+ Restore a pipeline template to its initial state.
+
+
+.. method:: Template.clone()
+
+ Return a new, equivalent, pipeline template.
+
+
+.. method:: Template.debug(flag)
+
+ If *flag* is true, turn debugging on. Otherwise, turn debugging off. When
+ debugging is on, commands to be executed are printed, and the shell is given
+ ``set -x`` command to be more verbose.
+
+
+.. method:: Template.append(cmd, kind)
+
+ Append a new action at the end. The *cmd* variable must be a valid bourne shell
+ command. The *kind* variable consists of two letters.
+
+ The first letter can be either of ``'-'`` (which means the command reads its
+ standard input), ``'f'`` (which means the commands reads a given file on the
+ command line) or ``'.'`` (which means the commands reads no input, and hence
+ must be first.)
+
+ Similarly, the second letter can be either of ``'-'`` (which means the command
+ writes to standard output), ``'f'`` (which means the command writes a file on
+ the command line) or ``'.'`` (which means the command does not write anything,
+ and hence must be last.)
+
+
+.. method:: Template.prepend(cmd, kind)
+
+ Add a new action at the beginning. See :meth:`append` for explanations of the
+ arguments.
+
+
+.. method:: Template.open(file, mode)
+
+ Return a file-like object, open to *file*, but read from or written to by the
+ pipeline. Note that only one of ``'r'``, ``'w'`` may be given.
+
+
+.. method:: Template.copy(infile, outfile)
+
+ Copy *infile* to *outfile* through the pipe.

+:mod:`pkgutil` --- Package extension utility
+============================================
+
+.. module:: pkgutil
+ :synopsis: Utilities for the import system.
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/pkgutil.py`
+
+--------------
+
+This module provides utilities for the import system, in particular package
+support.
+
+
+.. function:: extend_path(path, name)
+
+ Extend the search path for the modules which comprise a package. Intended
+ use is to place the following code in a package's :file:`__init__.py`::
+
+ from pkgutil import extend_path
+ __path__ = extend_path(__path__, __name__)
+
+ This will add to the package's ``__path__`` all subdirectories of directories
+ on ``sys.path`` named after the package. This is useful if one wants to
+ distribute different parts of a single logical package as multiple
+ directories.
+
+ It also looks for :file:`\*.pkg` files beginning where ``*`` matches the
+ *name* argument. This feature is similar to :file:`\*.pth` files (see the
+ :mod:`site` module for more information), except that it doesn't special-case
+ lines starting with ``import``. A :file:`\*.pkg` file is trusted at face
+ value: apart from checking for duplicates, all entries found in a
+ :file:`\*.pkg` file are added to the path, regardless of whether they exist
+ on the filesystem. (This is a feature.)
+
+ If the input path is not a list (as is the case for frozen packages) it is
+ returned unchanged. The input path is not modified; an extended copy is
+ returned. Items are only appended to the copy at the end.
+
+ It is assumed that :data:`sys.path` is a sequence. Items of :data:`sys.path`
+ that are not (Unicode or 8-bit) strings referring to existing directories are
+ ignored. Unicode items on :data:`sys.path` that cause errors when used as
+ filenames may cause this function to raise an exception (in line with
+ :func:`os.path.isdir` behavior).
+
+
+.. class:: ImpImporter(dirname=None)
+
+ :pep:`302` Importer that wraps Python's "classic" import algorithm.
+
+ If *dirname* is a string, a :pep:`302` importer is created that searches that
+ directory. If *dirname* is ``None``, a :pep:`302` importer is created that
+ searches the current :data:`sys.path`, plus any modules that are frozen or
+ built-in.
+
+ Note that :class:`ImpImporter` does not currently support being used by
+ placement on :data:`sys.meta_path`.
+
+
+.. class:: ImpLoader(fullname, file, filename, etc)
+
+ :pep:`302` Loader that wraps Python's "classic" import algorithm.
+
+
+.. function:: find_loader(fullname)
+
+ Find a :pep:`302` "loader" object for *fullname*.
+
+ If *fullname* contains dots, path must be the containing package's
+ ``__path__``. Returns ``None`` if the module cannot be found or imported.
+ This function uses :func:`iter_importers`, and is thus subject to the same
+ limitations regarding platform-specific special import locations such as the
+ Windows registry.
+
+
+.. function:: get_importer(path_item)
+
+ Retrieve a :pep:`302` importer for the given *path_item*.
+
+ The returned importer is cached in :data:`sys.path_importer_cache` if it was
+ newly created by a path hook.
+
+ If there is no importer, a wrapper around the basic import machinery is
+ returned. This wrapper is never inserted into the importer cache (``None``
+ is inserted instead).
+
+ The cache (or part of it) can be cleared manually if a rescan of
+ :data:`sys.path_hooks` is necessary.
+
+
+.. function:: get_loader(module_or_name)
+
+ Get a :pep:`302` "loader" object for *module_or_name*.
+
+ If the module or package is accessible via the normal import mechanism, a
+ wrapper around the relevant part of that machinery is returned. Returns
+ ``None`` if the module cannot be found or imported. If the named module is
+ not already imported, its containing package (if any) is imported, in order
+ to establish the package ``__path__``.
+
+ This function uses :func:`iter_importers`, and is thus subject to the same
+ limitations regarding platform-specific special import locations such as the
+ Windows registry.
+
+
+.. function:: iter_importers(fullname='')
+
+ Yield :pep:`302` importers for the given module name.
+
+ If fullname contains a '.', the importers will be for the package containing
+ fullname, otherwise they will be importers for :data:`sys.meta_path`,
+ :data:`sys.path`, and Python's "classic" import machinery, in that order. If
+ the named module is in a package, that package is imported as a side effect
+ of invoking this function.
+
+ Non-:pep:`302` mechanisms (e.g. the Windows registry) used by the standard
+ import machinery to find files in alternative locations are partially
+ supported, but are searched *after* :data:`sys.path`. Normally, these
+ locations are searched *before* :data:`sys.path`, preventing :data:`sys.path`
+ entries from shadowing them.
+
+ For this to cause a visible difference in behaviour, there must be a module
+ or package name that is accessible via both :data:`sys.path` and one of the
+ non-:pep:`302` file system mechanisms. In this case, the emulation will find
+ the former version, while the builtin import mechanism will find the latter.
+
+ Items of the following types can be affected by this discrepancy:
+ ``imp.C_EXTENSION``, ``imp.PY_SOURCE``, ``imp.PY_COMPILED``,
+ ``imp.PKG_DIRECTORY``.
+
+
+.. function:: iter_modules(path=None, prefix='')
+
+ Yields ``(module_loader, name, ispkg)`` for all submodules on *path*, or, if
+ path is ``None``, all top-level modules on ``sys.path``.
+
+ *path* should be either ``None`` or a list of paths to look for modules in.
+
+ *prefix* is a string to output on the front of every module name on output.
+
+
+.. function:: walk_packages(path=None, prefix='', onerror=None)
+
+ Yields ``(module_loader, name, ispkg)`` for all modules recursively on
+ *path*, or, if path is ``None``, all accessible modules.
+
+ *path* should be either ``None`` or a list of paths to look for modules in.
+
+ *prefix* is a string to output on the front of every module name on output.
+
+ Note that this function must import all *packages* (*not* all modules!) on
+ the given *path*, in order to access the ``__path__`` attribute to find
+ submodules.
+
+ *onerror* is a function which gets called with one argument (the name of the
+ package which was being imported) if any exception occurs while trying to
+ import a package. If no *onerror* function is supplied, :exc:`ImportError`\s
+ are caught and ignored, while all other exceptions are propagated,
+ terminating the search.
+
+ Examples::
+
+ # list all modules python can access
+ walk_packages()
+
+ # list all submodules of ctypes
+ walk_packages(ctypes.__path__, ctypes.__name__ + '.')
+
+
+.. function:: get_data(package, resource)
+
+ Get a resource from a package.
+
+ This is a wrapper for the :pep:`302` loader :func:`get_data` API. The
+ *package* argument should be the name of a package, in standard module format
+ (``foo.bar``). The *resource* argument should be in the form of a relative
+ filename, using ``/`` as the path separator. The parent directory name
+ ``..`` is not allowed, and nor is a rooted name (starting with a ``/``).
+
+ The function returns a binary string that is the contents of the specified
+ resource.
+
+ For packages located in the filesystem, which have already been imported,
+ this is the rough equivalent of::
+
+ d = os.path.dirname(sys.modules[package].__file__)
+ data = open(os.path.join(d, resource), 'rb').read()
+
+ If the package cannot be located or loaded, or it uses a :pep:`302` loader
+ which does not support :func:`get_data`, then ``None`` is returned.

+
+ Specific platforms listed alphabetically, with Linux included in the Unix

+
+
+Cross Platform
+--------------
+
+
+.. function:: architecture(executable=sys.executable, bits='', linkage='')
+
+ Queries the given executable (defaults to the Python interpreter binary) for
+ various architecture information.
+
+ Returns a tuple ``(bits, linkage)`` which contain information about the bit
+ architecture and the linkage format used for the executable. Both values are
+ returned as strings.
+
+ Values that cannot be determined are returned as given by the parameter presets.
+ If bits is given as ``''``, the :c:func:`sizeof(pointer)` (or
+ :c:func:`sizeof(long)` on Python version < 1.5.2) is used as indicator for the
+ supported pointer size.
+
+ The function relies on the system's :file:`file` command to do the actual work.
+ This is available on most if not all Unix platforms and some non-Unix platforms
+ and then only if the executable points to the Python interpreter. Reasonable
+ defaults are used when the above needs are not met.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ On Mac OS X (and perhaps other platforms), executable files may be
+ universal files containing multiple architectures.
+
+ To get at the "64-bitness" of the current interpreter, it is more
+ reliable to query the :attr:`sys.maxsize` attribute::
+
+ is_64bits = sys.maxsize > 2**32
+
+
+.. function:: machine()
+
+ Returns the machine type, e.g. ``'i386'``. An empty string is returned if the
+ value cannot be determined.
+
+
+.. function:: node()
+
+ Returns the computer's network name (may not be fully qualified!). An empty
+ string is returned if the value cannot be determined.
+
+
+.. function:: platform(aliased=0, terse=0)
+
+ Returns a single string identifying the underlying platform with as much useful
+ information as possible.
+
+ The output is intended to be *human readable* rather than machine parseable. It
+ may look different on different platforms and this is intended.
+
+ If *aliased* is true, the function will use aliases for various platforms that
+ report system names which differ from their common names, for example SunOS will
+ be reported as Solaris. The :func:`system_alias` function is used to implement
+ this.
+
+ Setting *terse* to true causes the function to return only the absolute minimum
+ information needed to identify the platform.
+
+
+.. function:: processor()
+
+ Returns the (real) processor name, e.g. ``'amdk6'``.
+
+ An empty string is returned if the value cannot be determined. Note that many
+ platforms do not provide this information or simply return the same value as for
+ :func:`machine`. NetBSD does this.
+
+
+.. function:: python_build()
+
+ Returns a tuple ``(buildno, builddate)`` stating the Python build number and
+ date as strings.
+
+
+.. function:: python_compiler()
+
+ Returns a string identifying the compiler used for compiling Python.

+ Returns a string identifying the Python implementation SCM revision.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: python_version()
+
+ Returns the Python version as string ``'major.minor.patchlevel'``
+
+ Note that unlike the Python ``sys.version``, the returned value will always
+ include the patchlevel (it defaults to 0).
+
+
+.. function:: python_version_tuple()
+
+ Returns the Python version as tuple ``(major, minor, patchlevel)`` of strings.
+
+ Note that unlike the Python ``sys.version``, the returned value will always
+ include the patchlevel (it defaults to ``'0'``).
+
+
+.. function:: release()
+
+ Returns the system's release, e.g. ``'2.2.0'`` or ``'NT'`` An empty string is
+ returned if the value cannot be determined.
+
+
+.. function:: system()
+
+ Returns the system/OS name, e.g. ``'Linux'``, ``'Windows'``, or ``'Java'``. An
+ empty string is returned if the value cannot be determined.
+
+
+.. function:: system_alias(system, release, version)
+
+ Returns ``(system, release, version)`` aliased to common marketing names used
+ for some systems. It also does some reordering of the information in some cases
+ where it would otherwise cause confusion.
+
+
+.. function:: version()
+
+ Returns the system's release version, e.g. ``'#3 on degas'``. An empty string is
+ returned if the value cannot be determined.
+
+
+.. function:: uname()
+
+ Fairly portable uname interface. Returns a tuple of strings ``(system, node,
+ release, version, machine, processor)`` identifying the underlying platform.
+
+ Note that unlike the :func:`os.uname` function this also returns possible
+ processor information as additional tuple entry.
+
+ Entries which cannot be determined are set to ``''``.
+
+
+Java Platform
+-------------
+
+
+.. function:: java_ver(release='', vendor='', vminfo=('','',''), osinfo=('','',''))
+
+ Version interface for Jython.
+
+ Returns a tuple ``(release, vendor, vminfo, osinfo)`` with *vminfo* being a
+ tuple ``(vm_name, vm_release, vm_vendor)`` and *osinfo* being a tuple
+ ``(os_name, os_version, os_arch)``. Values which cannot be determined are set to
+ the defaults given as parameters (which all default to ``''``).
+
+
+Windows Platform
+----------------
+
+
+.. function:: win32_ver(release='', version='', csd='', ptype='')
+
+ Get additional version information from the Windows Registry and return a tuple
+ ``(version, csd, ptype)`` referring to version number, CSD level
+ (service pack) and OS type (multi/single processor).
+
+ As a hint: *ptype* is ``'Uniprocessor Free'`` on single processor NT machines
+ and ``'Multiprocessor Free'`` on multi processor machines. The *'Free'* refers
+ to the OS version being free of debugging code. It could also state *'Checked'*
+ which means the OS version uses debugging code, i.e. code that checks arguments,
+ ranges, etc.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ This function works best with Mark Hammond's
+ :mod:`win32all` package installed, but also on Python 2.3 and
+ later (support for this was added in Python 2.6). It obviously
+ only runs on Win32 compatible platforms.
+
+
+Win95/98 specific
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. function:: popen(cmd, mode='r', bufsize=None)
+
+ Portable :func:`popen` interface. Find a working popen implementation
+ preferring :func:`win32pipe.popen`. On Windows NT, :func:`win32pipe.popen`
+ should work; on Windows 9x it hangs due to bugs in the MS C library.
+
+
+Mac OS Platform
+---------------
+
+
+.. function:: mac_ver(release='', versioninfo=('','',''), machine='')
+
+ Get Mac OS version information and return it as tuple ``(release, versioninfo,
+ machine)`` with *versioninfo* being a tuple ``(version, dev_stage,
+ non_release_version)``.
+
+ Entries which cannot be determined are set to ``''``. All tuple entries are
+ strings.
+
+
+Unix Platforms
+--------------
+
+
+.. function:: dist(distname='', version='', id='', supported_dists=('SuSE','debian','redhat','mandrake',...))
+
+ This is an old version of the functionality now provided by
+ :func:`linux_distribution`. For new code, please use the
+ :func:`linux_distribution`.
+
+ The only difference between the two is that ``dist()`` always
+ returns the short name of the distribution taken from the
+ ``supported_dists`` parameter.
+
+ .. deprecated:: 2.6
+
+.. function:: linux_distribution(distname='', version='', id='', supported_dists=('SuSE','debian','redhat','mandrake',...), full_distribution_name=1)
+
+ Tries to determine the name of the Linux OS distribution name.
+
+ ``supported_dists`` may be given to define the set of Linux distributions to
+ look for. It defaults to a list of currently supported Linux distributions
+ identified by their release file name.
+
+ If ``full_distribution_name`` is true (default), the full distribution read
+ from the OS is returned. Otherwise the short name taken from
+ ``supported_dists`` is used.
+
+ Returns a tuple ``(distname,version,id)`` which defaults to the args given as
+ parameters. ``id`` is the item in parentheses after the version number. It
+ is usually the version codename.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+.. function:: libc_ver(executable=sys.executable, lib='', version='', chunksize=2048)
+
+ Tries to determine the libc version against which the file executable (defaults
+ to the Python interpreter) is linked. Returns a tuple of strings ``(lib,
+ version)`` which default to the given parameters in case the lookup fails.
+
+ Note that this function has intimate knowledge of how different libc versions
+ add symbols to the executable is probably only usable for executables compiled
+ using :program:`gcc`.
+
+ The file is read and scanned in chunks of *chunksize* bytes.

+:mod:`plistlib` --- Generate and parse Mac OS X ``.plist`` files
+================================================================
+
+.. module:: plistlib
+ :synopsis: Generate and parse Mac OS X plist files.
+.. moduleauthor:: Jack Jansen
+.. sectionauthor:: Georg Brandl <[email protected]>
+.. (harvested from docstrings in the original file)
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ This module was previously only available in the Mac-specific library, it is
+ now available for all platforms.
+
+.. index::
+ pair: plist; file
+ single: property list
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/plistlib.py`
+
+--------------
+
+This module provides an interface for reading and writing the "property list"
+XML files used mainly by Mac OS X.
+
+The property list (``.plist``) file format is a simple XML pickle supporting
+basic object types, like dictionaries, lists, numbers and strings. Usually the
+top level object is a dictionary.
+
+Values can be strings, integers, floats, booleans, tuples, lists, dictionaries
+(but only with string keys), :class:`Data` or :class:`datetime.datetime`
+objects. String values (including dictionary keys) may be unicode strings --
+they will be written out as UTF-8.
+
+The ``<data>`` plist type is supported through the :class:`Data` class. This is
+a thin wrapper around a Python string. Use :class:`Data` if your strings
+contain control characters.
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ `PList manual page <http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/man5/plist.5.html>`_
+ Apple's documentation of the file format.
+
+
+This module defines the following functions:
+
+.. function:: readPlist(pathOrFile)
+
+ Read a plist file. *pathOrFile* may either be a file name or a (readable)
+ file object. Return the unpacked root object (which usually is a
+ dictionary).
+
+ The XML data is parsed using the Expat parser from :mod:`xml.parsers.expat`
+ -- see its documentation for possible exceptions on ill-formed XML.
+ Unknown elements will simply be ignored by the plist parser.
+
+
+.. function:: writePlist(rootObject, pathOrFile)
+
+ Write *rootObject* to a plist file. *pathOrFile* may either be a file name
+ or a (writable) file object.
+
+ A :exc:`TypeError` will be raised if the object is of an unsupported type or
+ a container that contains objects of unsupported types.
+
+
+.. function:: readPlistFromString(data)
+
+ Read a plist from a string. Return the root object.
+
+
+.. function:: writePlistToString(rootObject)
+
+ Return *rootObject* as a plist-formatted string.
+
+
+
+.. function:: readPlistFromResource(path, restype='plst', resid=0)
+
+ Read a plist from the resource with type *restype* from the resource fork of
+ *path*. Availability: Mac OS X.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ In Python 3.x, this function has been removed.
+
+
+.. function:: writePlistToResource(rootObject, path, restype='plst', resid=0)
+
+ Write *rootObject* as a resource with type *restype* to the resource fork of
+ *path*. Availability: Mac OS X.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ In Python 3.x, this function has been removed.
+
+
+
+The following class is available:
+
+.. class:: Data(data)
+
+ Return a "data" wrapper object around the string *data*. This is used in
+ functions converting from/to plists to represent the ``<data>`` type
+ available in plists.
+
+ It has one attribute, :attr:`data`, that can be used to retrieve the Python
+ string stored in it.
+
+
+Examples
+--------
+
+Generating a plist::
+
+ pl = dict(
+ aString="Doodah",
+ aList=["A", "B", 12, 32.1, [1, 2, 3]],
+ aFloat = 0.1,
+ anInt = 728,
+ aDict=dict(
+ anotherString="<hello & hi there!>",
+ aUnicodeValue=u'M\xe4ssig, Ma\xdf',
+ aTrueValue=True,
+ aFalseValue=False,
+ ),
+ someData = Data("<binary gunk>"),
+ someMoreData = Data("<lots of binary gunk>" * 10),
+ aDate = datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp(time.mktime(time.gmtime())),
+ )
+ # unicode keys are possible, but a little awkward to use:
+ pl[u'\xc5benraa'] = "That was a unicode key."
+ writePlist(pl, fileName)
+
+Parsing a plist::
+
+ pl = readPlist(pathOrFile)
+ print pl["aKey"]

+:mod:`popen2` --- Subprocesses with accessible I/O streams
+==========================================================
+
+.. module:: popen2
+ :synopsis: Subprocesses with accessible standard I/O streams.
+ :deprecated:
+.. sectionauthor:: Drew Csillag <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. deprecated:: 2.6
+ This module is obsolete. Use the :mod:`subprocess` module. Check
+ especially the :ref:`subprocess-replacements` section.
+
+This module allows you to spawn processes and connect to their
+input/output/error pipes and obtain their return codes under Unix and Windows.
+
+The :mod:`subprocess` module provides more powerful facilities for spawning new
+processes and retrieving their results. Using the :mod:`subprocess` module is
+preferable to using the :mod:`popen2` module.
+
+The primary interface offered by this module is a trio of factory functions.
+For each of these, if *bufsize* is specified, it specifies the buffer size for
+the I/O pipes. *mode*, if provided, should be the string ``'b'`` or ``'t'``; on
+Windows this is needed to determine whether the file objects should be opened in
+binary or text mode. The default value for *mode* is ``'t'``.
+
+On Unix, *cmd* may be a sequence, in which case arguments will be passed
+directly to the program without shell intervention (as with :func:`os.spawnv`).
+If *cmd* is a string it will be passed to the shell (as with :func:`os.system`).
+
+The only way to retrieve the return codes for the child processes is by using
+the :meth:`poll` or :meth:`wait` methods on the :class:`Popen3` and
+:class:`Popen4` classes; these are only available on Unix. This information is
+not available when using the :func:`popen2`, :func:`popen3`, and :func:`popen4`
+functions, or the equivalent functions in the :mod:`os` module. (Note that the
+tuples returned by the :mod:`os` module's functions are in a different order
+from the ones returned by the :mod:`popen2` module.)
+
+
+.. function:: popen2(cmd[, bufsize[, mode]])
+
+ Executes *cmd* as a sub-process. Returns the file objects ``(child_stdout,
+ child_stdin)``.
+
+
+.. function:: popen3(cmd[, bufsize[, mode]])
+
+ Executes *cmd* as a sub-process. Returns the file objects ``(child_stdout,
+ child_stdin, child_stderr)``.
+
+
+.. function:: popen4(cmd[, bufsize[, mode]])
+
+ Executes *cmd* as a sub-process. Returns the file objects
+ ``(child_stdout_and_stderr, child_stdin)``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+On Unix, a class defining the objects returned by the factory functions is also
+available. These are not used for the Windows implementation, and are not
+available on that platform.
+
+
+.. class:: Popen3(cmd[, capturestderr[, bufsize]])
+
+ This class represents a child process. Normally, :class:`Popen3` instances are
+ created using the :func:`popen2` and :func:`popen3` factory functions described
+ above.
+
+ If not using one of the helper functions to create :class:`Popen3` objects, the
+ parameter *cmd* is the shell command to execute in a sub-process. The
+ *capturestderr* flag, if true, specifies that the object should capture standard
+ error output of the child process. The default is false. If the *bufsize*
+ parameter is specified, it specifies the size of the I/O buffers to/from the
+ child process.
+
+
+.. class:: Popen4(cmd[, bufsize])
+
+ Similar to :class:`Popen3`, but always captures standard error into the same
+ file object as standard output. These are typically created using
+ :func:`popen4`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+
+.. _popen3-objects:
+
+Popen3 and Popen4 Objects
+-------------------------
+
+Instances of the :class:`Popen3` and :class:`Popen4` classes have the following
+methods:
+
+
+.. method:: Popen3.poll()
+
+ Returns ``-1`` if child process hasn't completed yet, or its status code
+ (see :meth:`wait`) otherwise.
+
+
+.. method:: Popen3.wait()
+
+ Waits for and returns the status code of the child process. The status code
+ encodes both the return code of the process and information about whether it
+ exited using the :c:func:`exit` system call or died due to a signal. Functions
+ to help interpret the status code are defined in the :mod:`os` module; see
+ section :ref:`os-process` for the :func:`W\*` family of functions.
+
+The following attributes are also available:
+
+
+.. attribute:: Popen3.fromchild
+
+ A file object that provides output from the child process. For :class:`Popen4`
+ instances, this will provide both the standard output and standard error
+ streams.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Popen3.tochild
+
+ A file object that provides input to the child process.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Popen3.childerr
+
+ A file object that provides error output from the child process, if
+ *capturestderr* was true for the constructor, otherwise ``None``. This will
+ always be ``None`` for :class:`Popen4` instances.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Popen3.pid
+
+ The process ID of the child process.
+
+
+.. _popen2-flow-control:
+
+Flow Control Issues
+-------------------
+
+Any time you are working with any form of inter-process communication, control
+flow needs to be carefully thought out. This remains the case with the file
+objects provided by this module (or the :mod:`os` module equivalents).
+
+When reading output from a child process that writes a lot of data to standard
+error while the parent is reading from the child's standard output, a deadlock
+can occur. A similar situation can occur with other combinations of reads and
+writes. The essential factors are that more than :const:`_PC_PIPE_BUF` bytes
+are being written by one process in a blocking fashion, while the other process
+is reading from the first process, also in a blocking fashion.
+
+.. Example explanation and suggested work-arounds substantially stolen
+ from Martin von Löwis:
+ http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2000-September/009460.html
+
+There are several ways to deal with this situation.
+
+The simplest application change, in many cases, will be to follow this model in
+the parent process::
+
+ import popen2
+
+ r, w, e = popen2.popen3('python slave.py')
+ e.readlines()
+ r.readlines()
+ r.close()
+ e.close()
+ w.close()
+
+with code like this in the child::
+
+ import os
+ import sys
+
+ # note that each of these print statements
+ # writes a single long string
+
+ print >>sys.stderr, 400 * 'this is a test\n'
+ os.close(sys.stderr.fileno())
+ print >>sys.stdout, 400 * 'this is another test\n'
+
+In particular, note that ``sys.stderr`` must be closed after writing all data,
+or :meth:`readlines` won't return. Also note that :func:`os.close` must be
+used, as ``sys.stderr.close()`` won't close ``stderr`` (otherwise assigning to
+``sys.stderr`` will silently close it, so no further errors can be printed).
+
+Applications which need to support a more general approach should integrate I/O
+over pipes with their :func:`select` loops, or use separate threads to read each
+of the individual files provided by whichever :func:`popen\*` function or
+:class:`Popen\*` class was used.
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ Module :mod:`subprocess`
+ Module for spawning and managing subprocesses.

+:mod:`poplib` --- POP3 protocol client
+======================================
+
+.. module:: poplib
+ :synopsis: POP3 protocol client (requires sockets).
+.. sectionauthor:: Andrew T. Csillag
+.. revised by ESR, January 2000
+
+.. index:: pair: POP3; protocol
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/poplib.py`
+
+--------------
+
+This module defines a class, :class:`POP3`, which encapsulates a connection to a
+POP3 server and implements the protocol as defined in :rfc:`1725`. The
+:class:`POP3` class supports both the minimal and optional command sets.
+Additionally, this module provides a class :class:`POP3_SSL`, which provides
+support for connecting to POP3 servers that use SSL as an underlying protocol
+layer.
+
+Note that POP3, though widely supported, is obsolescent. The implementation
+quality of POP3 servers varies widely, and too many are quite poor. If your
+mailserver supports IMAP, you would be better off using the
+:class:`imaplib.IMAP4` class, as IMAP servers tend to be better implemented.
+
+The :mod:`poplib` module provides two classes:
+
+
+.. class:: POP3(host[, port[, timeout]])
+
+ This class implements the actual POP3 protocol. The connection is created when
+ the instance is initialized. If *port* is omitted, the standard POP3 port (110)
+ is used. The optional *timeout* parameter specifies a timeout in seconds for the
+ connection attempt (if not specified, the global default timeout setting will
+ be used).
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ *timeout* was added.
+
+
+.. class:: POP3_SSL(host[, port[, keyfile[, certfile]]])
+
+ This is a subclass of :class:`POP3` that connects to the server over an SSL
+ encrypted socket. If *port* is not specified, 995, the standard POP3-over-SSL
+ port is used. *keyfile* and *certfile* are also optional - they can contain a
+ PEM formatted private key and certificate chain file for the SSL connection.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+One exception is defined as an attribute of the :mod:`poplib` module:
+
+
+.. exception:: error_proto
+
+ Exception raised on any errors from this module (errors from :mod:`socket`
+ module are not caught). The reason for the exception is passed to the
+ constructor as a string.
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ Module :mod:`imaplib`
+ The standard Python IMAP module.
+
+ `Frequently Asked Questions About Fetchmail <http://www.catb.org/~esr/fetchmail/fetchmail-FAQ.html>`_
+ The FAQ for the :program:`fetchmail` POP/IMAP client collects information on
+ POP3 server variations and RFC noncompliance that may be useful if you need to
+ write an application based on the POP protocol.
+
+
+.. _pop3-objects:
+
+POP3 Objects
+------------
+
+All POP3 commands are represented by methods of the same name, in lower-case;
+most return the response text sent by the server.
+
+An :class:`POP3` instance has the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: POP3.set_debuglevel(level)
+
+ Set the instance's debugging level. This controls the amount of debugging
+ output printed. The default, ``0``, produces no debugging output. A value of
+ ``1`` produces a moderate amount of debugging output, generally a single line
+ per request. A value of ``2`` or higher produces the maximum amount of
+ debugging output, logging each line sent and received on the control connection.
+
+
+.. method:: POP3.getwelcome()
+
+ Returns the greeting string sent by the POP3 server.
+
+
+.. method:: POP3.user(username)
+
+ Send user command, response should indicate that a password is required.
+
+
+.. method:: POP3.pass_(password)
+
+ Send password, response includes message count and mailbox size. Note: the
+ mailbox on the server is locked until :meth:`~poplib.quit` is called.
+
+
+.. method:: POP3.apop(user, secret)
+
+ Use the more secure APOP authentication to log into the POP3 server.
+
+
+.. method:: POP3.rpop(user)
+
+ Use RPOP authentication (similar to UNIX r-commands) to log into POP3 server.
+
+
+.. method:: POP3.stat()
+
+ Get mailbox status. The result is a tuple of 2 integers: ``(message count,
+ mailbox size)``.
+
+
+.. method:: POP3.list([which])
+
+ Request message list, result is in the form ``(response, ['mesg_num octets',
+ ...], octets)``. If *which* is set, it is the message to list.
+
+
+.. method:: POP3.retr(which)
+
+ Retrieve whole message number *which*, and set its seen flag. Result is in form
+ ``(response, ['line', ...], octets)``.
+
+
+.. method:: POP3.dele(which)
+
+ Flag message number *which* for deletion. On most servers deletions are not
+ actually performed until QUIT (the major exception is Eudora QPOP, which
+ deliberately violates the RFCs by doing pending deletes on any disconnect).
+
+
+.. method:: POP3.rset()
+
+ Remove any deletion marks for the mailbox.
+
+
+.. method:: POP3.noop()
+
+ Do nothing. Might be used as a keep-alive.
+
+
+.. method:: POP3.quit()
+
+ Signoff: commit changes, unlock mailbox, drop connection.
+
+
+.. method:: POP3.top(which, howmuch)
+
+ Retrieves the message header plus *howmuch* lines of the message after the
+ header of message number *which*. Result is in form ``(response, ['line', ...],
+ octets)``.
+
+ The POP3 TOP command this method uses, unlike the RETR command, doesn't set the
+ message's seen flag; unfortunately, TOP is poorly specified in the RFCs and is
+ frequently broken in off-brand servers. Test this method by hand against the
+ POP3 servers you will use before trusting it.
+
+
+.. method:: POP3.uidl([which])
+
+ Return message digest (unique id) list. If *which* is specified, result contains
+ the unique id for that message in the form ``'response mesgnum uid``, otherwise
+ result is list ``(response, ['mesgnum uid', ...], octets)``.
+
+Instances of :class:`POP3_SSL` have no additional methods. The interface of this
+subclass is identical to its parent.
+
+
+.. _pop3-example:
+
+POP3 Example
+------------
+
+Here is a minimal example (without error checking) that opens a mailbox and
+retrieves and prints all messages::
+
+ import getpass, poplib
+
+ M = poplib.POP3('localhost')
+ M.user(getpass.getuser())
+ M.pass_(getpass.getpass())
+ numMessages = len(M.list()[1])
+ for i in range(numMessages):
+ for j in M.retr(i+1)[1]:
+ print j
+
+At the end of the module, there is a test section that contains a more extensive
+example of usage.

+:mod:`posix` --- The most common POSIX system calls
+===================================================
+
+.. module:: posix
+ :platform: Unix
+ :synopsis: The most common POSIX system calls (normally used via module os).
+
+
+This module provides access to operating system functionality that is
+standardized by the C Standard and the POSIX standard (a thinly disguised Unix
+interface).
+
+.. index:: module: os
+
+**Do not import this module directly.** Instead, import the module :mod:`os`,
+which provides a *portable* version of this interface. On Unix, the :mod:`os`
+module provides a superset of the :mod:`posix` interface. On non-Unix operating
+systems the :mod:`posix` module is not available, but a subset is always
+available through the :mod:`os` interface. Once :mod:`os` is imported, there is
+*no* performance penalty in using it instead of :mod:`posix`. In addition,

+errors, while errors reported by the system calls raise :exc:`OSError`.

+Large File Support
+------------------
+
+.. index::
+ single: large files
+ single: file; large files
+
+.. sectionauthor:: Steve Clift <[email protected]>
+
+Several operating systems (including AIX, HP-UX, Irix and Solaris) provide
+support for files that are larger than 2 GB from a C programming model where
+:c:type:`int` and :c:type:`long` are 32-bit values. This is typically accomplished
+by defining the relevant size and offset types as 64-bit values. Such files are
+sometimes referred to as :dfn:`large files`.
+
+Large file support is enabled in Python when the size of an :c:type:`off_t` is
+larger than a :c:type:`long` and the :c:type:`long long` type is available and is
+at least as large as an :c:type:`off_t`. Python longs are then used to represent
+file sizes, offsets and other values that can exceed the range of a Python int.
+It may be necessary to configure and compile Python with certain compiler flags
+to enable this mode. For example, it is enabled by default with recent versions
+of Irix, but with Solaris 2.6 and 2.7 you need to do something like::
+
+ CFLAGS="`getconf LFS_CFLAGS`" OPT="-g -O2 $CFLAGS" \
+ ./configure
+
+On large-file-capable Linux systems, this might work::
+
+ CFLAGS='-D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64' OPT="-g -O2 $CFLAGS" \
+ ./configure
+
+
+.. _posix-contents:
+
+Notable Module Contents
+-----------------------
+
+In addition to many functions described in the :mod:`os` module documentation,
+:mod:`posix` defines the following data item:
+
+.. data:: environ
+
+ A dictionary representing the string environment at the time the interpreter
+ was started. For example, ``environ['HOME']`` is the pathname of your home
+ directory, equivalent to ``getenv("HOME")`` in C.
+
+ Modifying this dictionary does not affect the string environment passed on by
+ :func:`execv`, :func:`popen` or :func:`system`; if you need to change the
+ environment, pass ``environ`` to :func:`execve` or add variable assignments and
+ export statements to the command string for :func:`system` or :func:`popen`.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ The :mod:`os` module provides an alternate implementation of ``environ`` which
+ updates the environment on modification. Note also that updating ``os.environ``
+ will render this dictionary obsolete. Use of the :mod:`os` module version of
+ this is recommended over direct access to the :mod:`posix` module.

+:mod:`posixfile` --- File-like objects with locking support
+===========================================================
+
+.. module:: posixfile
+ :platform: Unix
+ :synopsis: A file-like object with support for locking.
+ :deprecated:
+.. moduleauthor:: Jaap Vermeulen
+.. sectionauthor:: Jaap Vermeulen
+
+
+.. index:: pair: POSIX; file object
+
+.. deprecated:: 1.5
+ The locking operation that this module provides is done better and more portably
+ by the :func:`fcntl.lockf` call.
+
+.. index:: single: fcntl() (in module fcntl)
+
+This module implements some additional functionality over the built-in file
+objects. In particular, it implements file locking, control over the file
+flags, and an easy interface to duplicate the file object. The module defines a
+new file object, the posixfile object. It has all the standard file object
+methods and adds the methods described below. This module only works for
+certain flavors of Unix, since it uses :func:`fcntl.fcntl` for file locking.
+
+To instantiate a posixfile object, use the :func:`posixfile.open` function. The
+resulting object looks and feels roughly the same as a standard file object.
+
+The :mod:`posixfile` module defines the following constants:
+
+
+.. data:: SEEK_SET
+
+ Offset is calculated from the start of the file.
+
+
+.. data:: SEEK_CUR
+
+ Offset is calculated from the current position in the file.
+
+
+.. data:: SEEK_END
+
+ Offset is calculated from the end of the file.
+
+The :mod:`posixfile` module defines the following functions:
+
+
+.. function:: open(filename[, mode[, bufsize]])
+
+ Create a new posixfile object with the given filename and mode. The *filename*,
+ *mode* and *bufsize* arguments are interpreted the same way as by the built-in
+ :func:`open` function.
+
+
+.. function:: fileopen(fileobject)
+
+ Create a new posixfile object with the given standard file object. The resulting
+ object has the same filename and mode as the original file object.
+
+The posixfile object defines the following additional methods:
+
+
+.. method:: posixfile.lock(fmt, [len[, start[, whence]]])
+
+ Lock the specified section of the file that the file object is referring to.
+ The format is explained below in a table. The *len* argument specifies the
+ length of the section that should be locked. The default is ``0``. *start*
+ specifies the starting offset of the section, where the default is ``0``. The
+ *whence* argument specifies where the offset is relative to. It accepts one of
+ the constants :const:`SEEK_SET`, :const:`SEEK_CUR` or :const:`SEEK_END`. The
+ default is :const:`SEEK_SET`. For more information about the arguments refer to
+ the :manpage:`fcntl(2)` manual page on your system.
+
+
+.. method:: posixfile.flags([flags])
+
+ Set the specified flags for the file that the file object is referring to. The
+ new flags are ORed with the old flags, unless specified otherwise. The format
+ is explained below in a table. Without the *flags* argument a string indicating
+ the current flags is returned (this is the same as the ``?`` modifier). For
+ more information about the flags refer to the :manpage:`fcntl(2)` manual page on
+ your system.
+
+
+.. method:: posixfile.dup()
+
+ Duplicate the file object and the underlying file pointer and file descriptor.
+ The resulting object behaves as if it were newly opened.
+
+
+.. method:: posixfile.dup2(fd)
+
+ Duplicate the file object and the underlying file pointer and file descriptor.
+ The new object will have the given file descriptor. Otherwise the resulting
+ object behaves as if it were newly opened.
+
+
+.. method:: posixfile.file()
+
+ Return the standard file object that the posixfile object is based on. This is
+ sometimes necessary for functions that insist on a standard file object.
+
+All methods raise :exc:`IOError` when the request fails.
+
+Format characters for the :meth:`lock` method have the following meaning:
+
++--------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| Format | Meaning |
++========+===============================================+
+| ``u`` | unlock the specified region |
++--------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| ``r`` | request a read lock for the specified section |
++--------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| ``w`` | request a write lock for the specified |
+| | section |
++--------+-----------------------------------------------+
+
+In addition the following modifiers can be added to the format:
+
++----------+--------------------------------+-------+
+| Modifier | Meaning | Notes |
++==========+================================+=======+
+| ``|`` | wait until the lock has been | |
+| | granted | |
++----------+--------------------------------+-------+
+| ``?`` | return the first lock | \(1) |
+| | conflicting with the requested | |
+| | lock, or ``None`` if there is | |
+| | no conflict. | |
++----------+--------------------------------+-------+
+
+Note:
+
+(1)
+ The lock returned is in the format ``(mode, len, start, whence, pid)`` where
+ *mode* is a character representing the type of lock ('r' or 'w'). This modifier
+ prevents a request from being granted; it is for query purposes only.
+
+Format characters for the :meth:`flags` method have the following meanings:
+
++--------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| Format | Meaning |
++========+===============================================+
+| ``a`` | append only flag |
++--------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| ``c`` | close on exec flag |
++--------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| ``n`` | no delay flag (also called non-blocking flag) |
++--------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| ``s`` | synchronization flag |
++--------+-----------------------------------------------+
+
+In addition the following modifiers can be added to the format:
+
++----------+---------------------------------+-------+
+| Modifier | Meaning | Notes |
++==========+=================================+=======+
+| ``!`` | turn the specified flags 'off', | \(1) |
+| | instead of the default 'on' | |
++----------+---------------------------------+-------+
+| ``=`` | replace the flags, instead of | \(1) |
+| | the default 'OR' operation | |
++----------+---------------------------------+-------+
+| ``?`` | return a string in which the | \(2) |
+| | characters represent the flags | |
+| | that are set. | |
++----------+---------------------------------+-------+
+
+Notes:
+
+(1)
+ The ``!`` and ``=`` modifiers are mutually exclusive.
+
+(2)
+ This string represents the flags after they may have been altered by the same
+ call.
+
+Examples::
+
+ import posixfile
+
+ file = posixfile.open('testfile', 'w')
+ file.lock('w|')
+ ...
+ file.lock('u')
+ file.close()

+:mod:`pprint` --- Data pretty printer
+=====================================
+
+.. module:: pprint
+ :synopsis: Data pretty printer.
+.. moduleauthor:: Fred L. Drake, Jr. <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Fred L. Drake, Jr. <[email protected]>
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/pprint.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`pprint` module provides a capability to "pretty-print" arbitrary
+Python data structures in a form which can be used as input to the interpreter.
+If the formatted structures include objects which are not fundamental Python
+types, the representation may not be loadable. This may be the case if objects
+such as files, sockets, classes, or instances are included, as well as many
+other built-in objects which are not representable as Python constants.
+
+The formatted representation keeps objects on a single line if it can, and
+breaks them onto multiple lines if they don't fit within the allowed width.
+Construct :class:`PrettyPrinter` objects explicitly if you need to adjust the
+width constraint.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ Dictionaries are sorted by key before the display is computed; before 2.5, a
+ dictionary was sorted only if its display required more than one line, although
+ that wasn't documented.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ Added support for :class:`set` and :class:`frozenset`.
+
+
+The :mod:`pprint` module defines one class:
+
+.. First the implementation class:
+
+
+.. class:: PrettyPrinter(indent=1, width=80, depth=None, stream=None)
+
+ Construct a :class:`PrettyPrinter` instance. This constructor understands
+ several keyword parameters. An output stream may be set using the *stream*
+ keyword; the only method used on the stream object is the file protocol's
+ :meth:`write` method. If not specified, the :class:`PrettyPrinter` adopts
+ ``sys.stdout``. Three additional parameters may be used to control the
+ formatted representation. The keywords are *indent*, *depth*, and *width*. The
+ amount of indentation added for each recursive level is specified by *indent*;
+ the default is one. Other values can cause output to look a little odd, but can
+ make nesting easier to spot. The number of levels which may be printed is
+ controlled by *depth*; if the data structure being printed is too deep, the next
+ contained level is replaced by ``...``. By default, there is no constraint on
+ the depth of the objects being formatted. The desired output width is
+ constrained using the *width* parameter; the default is 80 characters. If a
+ structure cannot be formatted within the constrained width, a best effort will
+ be made.
+
+ >>> import pprint
+ >>> stuff = ['spam', 'eggs', 'lumberjack', 'knights', 'ni']
+ >>> stuff.insert(0, stuff[:])
+ >>> pp = pprint.PrettyPrinter(indent=4)
+ >>> pp.pprint(stuff)
+ [ ['spam', 'eggs', 'lumberjack', 'knights', 'ni'],
+ 'spam',
+ 'eggs',
+ 'lumberjack',
+ 'knights',
+ 'ni']
+ >>> tup = ('spam', ('eggs', ('lumberjack', ('knights', ('ni', ('dead',
+ ... ('parrot', ('fresh fruit',))))))))
+ >>> pp = pprint.PrettyPrinter(depth=6)
+ >>> pp.pprint(tup)
+ ('spam', ('eggs', ('lumberjack', ('knights', ('ni', ('dead', (...)))))))
+
+The :class:`PrettyPrinter` class supports several derivative functions:
+
+.. function:: pformat(object, indent=1, width=80, depth=None)
+
+ Return the formatted representation of *object* as a string. *indent*, *width*
+ and *depth* will be passed to the :class:`PrettyPrinter` constructor as
+ formatting parameters.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ The parameters *indent*, *width* and *depth* were added.
+
+
+.. function:: pprint(object, stream=None, indent=1, width=80, depth=None)
+
+ Prints the formatted representation of *object* on *stream*, followed by a
+ newline. If *stream* is ``None``, ``sys.stdout`` is used. This may be used in
+ the interactive interpreter instead of a :keyword:`print` statement for
+ inspecting values. *indent*, *width* and *depth* will be passed to the
+ :class:`PrettyPrinter` constructor as formatting parameters.
+
+ >>> import pprint
+ >>> stuff = ['spam', 'eggs', 'lumberjack', 'knights', 'ni']
+ >>> stuff.insert(0, stuff)
+ >>> pprint.pprint(stuff)
+ [<Recursion on list with id=...>,
+ 'spam',
+ 'eggs',
+ 'lumberjack',
+ 'knights',
+ 'ni']
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ The parameters *indent*, *width* and *depth* were added.
+
+
+.. function:: isreadable(object)
+
+ .. index:: builtin: eval
+
+ Determine if the formatted representation of *object* is "readable," or can be
+ used to reconstruct the value using :func:`eval`. This always returns ``False``
+ for recursive objects.
+
+ >>> pprint.isreadable(stuff)
+ False
+
+
+.. function:: isrecursive(object)
+
+ Determine if *object* requires a recursive representation.
+
+
+One more support function is also defined:
+
+.. function:: saferepr(object)
+
+ Return a string representation of *object*, protected against recursive data
+ structures. If the representation of *object* exposes a recursive entry, the
+ recursive reference will be represented as ``<Recursion on typename with
+ id=number>``. The representation is not otherwise formatted.
+
+ >>> pprint.saferepr(stuff)
+ "[<Recursion on list with id=...>, 'spam', 'eggs', 'lumberjack', 'knights', 'ni']"
+
+
+.. _prettyprinter-objects:
+
+PrettyPrinter Objects
+---------------------
+
+:class:`PrettyPrinter` instances have the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: PrettyPrinter.pformat(object)
+
+ Return the formatted representation of *object*. This takes into account the
+ options passed to the :class:`PrettyPrinter` constructor.
+
+
+.. method:: PrettyPrinter.pprint(object)
+
+ Print the formatted representation of *object* on the configured stream,
+ followed by a newline.
+
+The following methods provide the implementations for the corresponding
+functions of the same names. Using these methods on an instance is slightly
+more efficient since new :class:`PrettyPrinter` objects don't need to be
+created.
+
+
+.. method:: PrettyPrinter.isreadable(object)
+
+ .. index:: builtin: eval
+
+ Determine if the formatted representation of the object is "readable," or can be
+ used to reconstruct the value using :func:`eval`. Note that this returns
+ ``False`` for recursive objects. If the *depth* parameter of the
+ :class:`PrettyPrinter` is set and the object is deeper than allowed, this
+ returns ``False``.
+
+
+.. method:: PrettyPrinter.isrecursive(object)
+
+ Determine if the object requires a recursive representation.
+
+This method is provided as a hook to allow subclasses to modify the way objects
+are converted to strings. The default implementation uses the internals of the
+:func:`saferepr` implementation.
+
+
+.. method:: PrettyPrinter.format(object, context, maxlevels, level)
+
+ Returns three values: the formatted version of *object* as a string, a flag
+ indicating whether the result is readable, and a flag indicating whether
+ recursion was detected. The first argument is the object to be presented. The
+ second is a dictionary which contains the :func:`id` of objects that are part of
+ the current presentation context (direct and indirect containers for *object*
+ that are affecting the presentation) as the keys; if an object needs to be
+ presented which is already represented in *context*, the third return value
+ should be ``True``. Recursive calls to the :meth:`format` method should add
+ additional entries for containers to this dictionary. The third argument,
+ *maxlevels*, gives the requested limit to recursion; this will be ``0`` if there
+ is no requested limit. This argument should be passed unmodified to recursive
+ calls. The fourth argument, *level*, gives the current level; recursive calls
+ should be passed a value less than that of the current call.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+.. _pprint-example:
+
+pprint Example
+--------------
+
+This example demonstrates several uses of the :func:`pprint` function and its
+parameters.
+
+ >>> import pprint
+ >>> tup = ('spam', ('eggs', ('lumberjack', ('knights', ('ni', ('dead',
+ ... ('parrot', ('fresh fruit',))))))))
+ >>> stuff = ['a' * 10, tup, ['a' * 30, 'b' * 30], ['c' * 20, 'd' * 20]]
+ >>> pprint.pprint(stuff)
+ ['aaaaaaaaaa',
+ ('spam',
+ ('eggs',
+ ('lumberjack',
+ ('knights', ('ni', ('dead', ('parrot', ('fresh fruit',)))))))),
+ ['aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa', 'bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb'],
+ ['cccccccccccccccccccc', 'dddddddddddddddddddd']]
+ >>> pprint.pprint(stuff, depth=3)
+ ['aaaaaaaaaa',
+ ('spam', ('eggs', (...))),
+ ['aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa', 'bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb'],
+ ['cccccccccccccccccccc', 'dddddddddddddddddddd']]
+ >>> pprint.pprint(stuff, width=60)

+********************
+The Python Profilers
+********************
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/profile.py` and :source:`Lib/pstats.py`
+
+--------------
+
+.. _profiler-introduction:
+
+Introduction to the profilers
+=============================
+
+.. index::
+ single: deterministic profiling
+ single: profiling, deterministic
+
+:mod:`cProfile` and :mod:`profile` provide :dfn:`deterministic profiling` of
+Python programs. A :dfn:`profile` is a set of statistics that describes how
+often and for how long various parts of the program executed. These statistics
+can be formatted into reports via the :mod:`pstats` module.
+
+The Python standard library provides three different implementations of the same
+profiling interface:
+
+1. :mod:`cProfile` is recommended for most users; it's a C extension with
+ reasonable overhead that makes it suitable for profiling long-running
+ programs. Based on :mod:`lsprof`, contributed by Brett Rosen and Ted
+ Czotter.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+2. :mod:`profile`, a pure Python module whose interface is imitated by
+ :mod:`cProfile`, but which adds significant overhead to profiled programs.
+ If you're trying to extend the profiler in some way, the task might be easier
+ with this module.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ Now also reports the time spent in calls to built-in functions
+ and methods.
+
+3. :mod:`hotshot` was an experimental C module that focused on minimizing
+ the overhead of profiling, at the expense of longer data
+ post-processing times. It is no longer maintained and may be
+ dropped in a future version of Python.
+
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ The results should be more meaningful than in the past: the timing core
+ contained a critical bug.
+
+The :mod:`profile` and :mod:`cProfile` modules export the same interface, so
+they are mostly interchangeable; :mod:`cProfile` has a much lower overhead but
+is newer and might not be available on all systems.
+:mod:`cProfile` is really a compatibility layer on top of the internal
+:mod:`_lsprof` module. The :mod:`hotshot` module is reserved for specialized
+usage.
+
+.. note::
+
+ The profiler modules are designed to provide an execution profile for a given
+ program, not for benchmarking purposes (for that, there is :mod:`timeit` for
+ reasonably accurate results). This particularly applies to benchmarking
+ Python code against C code: the profilers introduce overhead for Python code,
+ but not for C-level functions, and so the C code would seem faster than any
+ Python one.
+
+
+.. _profile-instant:
+
+Instant User's Manual
+=====================
+
+This section is provided for users that "don't want to read the manual." It
+provides a very brief overview, and allows a user to rapidly perform profiling
+on an existing application.
+
+To profile a function that takes a single argument, you can do::
+
+ import cProfile
+ import re
+ cProfile.run('re.compile("foo|bar")')
+
+(Use :mod:`profile` instead of :mod:`cProfile` if the latter is not available on
+your system.)
+
+The above action would run :func:`re.compile` and print profile results like
+the following::
+
+ 197 function calls (192 primitive calls) in 0.002 seconds
+
+ Ordered by: standard name
+
+ ncalls tottime percall cumtime percall filename:lineno(function)
+ 1 0.000 0.000 0.001 0.001 <string>:1(<module>)
+ 1 0.000 0.000 0.001 0.001 re.py:212(compile)
+ 1 0.000 0.000 0.001 0.001 re.py:268(_compile)
+ 1 0.000 0.000 0.000 0.000 sre_compile.py:172(_compile_charset)
+ 1 0.000 0.000 0.000 0.000 sre_compile.py:201(_optimize_charset)
+ 4 0.000 0.000 0.000 0.000 sre_compile.py:25(_identityfunction)
+ 3/1 0.000 0.000 0.000 0.000 sre_compile.py:33(_compile)
+
+The first line indicates that 197 calls were monitored. Of those calls, 192
+were :dfn:`primitive`, meaning that the call was not induced via recursion. The
+next line: ``Ordered by: standard name``, indicates that the text string in the
+far right column was used to sort the output. The column headings include:
+
+ncalls
+ for the number of calls,
+
+tottime
+ for the total time spent in the given function (and excluding time made in
+ calls to sub-functions)
+
+percall
+ is the quotient of ``tottime`` divided by ``ncalls``
+
+cumtime
+ is the cumulative time spent in this and all subfunctions (from invocation
+ till exit). This figure is accurate *even* for recursive functions.
+
+percall
+ is the quotient of ``cumtime`` divided by primitive calls
+
+filename:lineno(function)
+ provides the respective data of each function
+
+When there are two numbers in the first column (for example ``3/1``), it means
+that the function recursed. The second value is the number of primitive calls
+and the former is the total number of calls. Note that when the function does
+not recurse, these two values are the same, and only the single figure is
+printed.
+
+Instead of printing the output at the end of the profile run, you can save the
+results to a file by specifying a filename to the :func:`run` function::
+
+ import cProfile
+ import re
+ cProfile.run('re.compile("foo|bar")', 'restats')
+
+The :class:`pstats.Stats` class reads profile results from a file and formats
+them in various ways.
+
+The file :mod:`cProfile` can also be invoked as a script to profile another
+script. For example::
+
+ python -m cProfile [-o output_file] [-s sort_order] myscript.py
+
+``-o`` writes the profile results to a file instead of to stdout
+
+``-s`` specifies one of the :func:`~pstats.Stats.sort_stats` sort values to sort
+the output by. This only applies when ``-o`` is not supplied.
+
+The :mod:`pstats` module's :class:`~pstats.Stats` class has a variety of methods
+for manipulating and printing the data saved into a profile results file::
+
+ import pstats
+ p = pstats.Stats('restats')
+ p.strip_dirs().sort_stats(-1).print_stats()
+
+The :meth:`~pstats.Stats.strip_dirs` method removed the extraneous path from all
+the module names. The :meth:`~pstats.Stats.sort_stats` method sorted all the
+entries according to the standard module/line/name string that is printed. The
+:meth:`~pstats.Stats.print_stats` method printed out all the statistics. You
+might try the following sort calls::
+
+ p.sort_stats('name')
+ p.print_stats()
+
+The first call will actually sort the list by function name, and the second call
+will print out the statistics. The following are some interesting calls to
+experiment with::
+
+ p.sort_stats('cumulative').print_stats(10)
+
+This sorts the profile by cumulative time in a function, and then only prints
+the ten most significant lines. If you want to understand what algorithms are
+taking time, the above line is what you would use.
+
+If you were looking to see what functions were looping a lot, and taking a lot
+of time, you would do::
+
+ p.sort_stats('time').print_stats(10)
+
+to sort according to time spent within each function, and then print the
+statistics for the top ten functions.
+
+You might also try::
+
+ p.sort_stats('file').print_stats('__init__')
+
+This will sort all the statistics by file name, and then print out statistics
+for only the class init methods (since they are spelled with ``__init__`` in
+them). As one final example, you could try::
+
+ p.sort_stats('time', 'cum').print_stats(.5, 'init')
+
+This line sorts statistics with a primary key of time, and a secondary key of
+cumulative time, and then prints out some of the statistics. To be specific, the
+list is first culled down to 50% (re: ``.5``) of its original size, then only
+lines containing ``init`` are maintained, and that sub-sub-list is printed.
+
+If you wondered what functions called the above functions, you could now (``p``
+is still sorted according to the last criteria) do::
+
+ p.print_callers(.5, 'init')
+
+and you would get a list of callers for each of the listed functions.
+
+If you want more functionality, you're going to have to read the manual, or
+guess what the following functions do::
+
+ p.print_callees()
+ p.add('restats')
+
+Invoked as a script, the :mod:`pstats` module is a statistics browser for
+reading and examining profile dumps. It has a simple line-oriented interface
+(implemented using :mod:`cmd`) and interactive help.
+
+:mod:`profile` and :mod:`cProfile` Module Reference
+=======================================================
+
+.. module:: cProfile
+.. module:: profile
+ :synopsis: Python source profiler.
+
+Both the :mod:`profile` and :mod:`cProfile` modules provide the following
+functions:
+
+.. function:: run(command, filename=None, sort=-1)
+
+ This function takes a single argument that can be passed to the :func:`exec`
+ function, and an optional file name. In all cases this routine executes::
+
+ exec(command, __main__.__dict__, __main__.__dict__)
+
+ and gathers profiling statistics from the execution. If no file name is
+ present, then this function automatically creates a :class:`~pstats.Stats`
+ instance and prints a simple profiling report. If the sort value is specified
+ it is passed to this :class:`~pstats.Stats` instance to control how the
+ results are sorted.
+
+.. function:: runctx(command, globals, locals, filename=None)
+
+ This function is similar to :func:`run`, with added arguments to supply the
+ globals and locals dictionaries for the *command* string. This routine
+ executes::
+
+ exec(command, globals, locals)
+
+ and gathers profiling statistics as in the :func:`run` function above.
+
+.. class:: Profile(timer=None, timeunit=0.0, subcalls=True, builtins=True)
+
+ This class is normally only used if more precise control over profiling is
+ needed than what the :func:`cProfile.run` function provides.
+
+ A custom timer can be supplied for measuring how long code takes to run via
+ the *timer* argument. This must be a function that returns a single number
+ representing the current time. If the number is an integer, the *timeunit*
+ specifies a multiplier that specifies the duration of each unit of time. For
+ example, if the timer returns times measured in thousands of seconds, the
+ time unit would be ``.001``.
+
+ Directly using the :class:`Profile` class allows formatting profile results
+ without writing the profile data to a file::
+
+ import cProfile, pstats, io
+ pr = cProfile.Profile()
+ pr.enable()
+ ... do something ...
+ pr.disable()
+ s = io.StringIO()
+ ps = pstats.Stats(pr, stream=s)
+ ps.print_results()
+
+ .. method:: enable()
+
+ Start collecting profiling data.
+
+ .. method:: disable()
+
+ Stop collecting profiling data.
+
+ .. method:: create_stats()
+
+ Stop collecting profiling data and record the results internally
+ as the current profile.
+
+ .. method:: print_stats(sort=-1)
+
+ Create a :class:`~pstats.Stats` object based on the current
+ profile and print the results to stdout.
+
+ .. method:: dump_stats(filename)
+
+ Write the results of the current profile to *filename*.
+
+ .. method:: run(cmd)
+
+ Profile the cmd via :func:`exec`.
+
+ .. method:: runctx(cmd, globals, locals)
+
+ Profile the cmd via :func:`exec` with the specified global and
+ local environment.
+
+ .. method:: runcall(func, *args, **kwargs)
+
+ Profile ``func(*args, **kwargs)``
+
+.. _profile-stats:
+
+The :class:`Stats` Class
+========================
+
+Analysis of the profiler data is done using the :class:`~pstats.Stats` class.
+
+.. module:: pstats
+ :synopsis: Statistics object for use with the profiler.
+
+.. class:: Stats(*filenames or profile, stream=sys.stdout)
+
+ This class constructor creates an instance of a "statistics object" from a
+ *filename* (or list of filenames) or from a :class:`Profile` instance. Output
+ will be printed to the stream specified by *stream*.
+
+ The file selected by the above constructor must have been created by the
+ corresponding version of :mod:`profile` or :mod:`cProfile`. To be specific,
+ there is *no* file compatibility guaranteed with future versions of this
+ profiler, and there is no compatibility with files produced by other
+ profilers. If several files are provided, all the statistics for identical
+ functions will be coalesced, so that an overall view of several processes can
+ be considered in a single report. If additional files need to be combined
+ with data in an existing :class:`~pstats.Stats` object, the
+ :meth:`~pstats.Stats.add` method can be used.
+
+ Instead of reading the profile data from a file, a :class:`cProfile.Profile`
+ or :class:`profile.Profile` object can be used as the profile data source.
+
+ :class:`Stats` objects have the following methods:
+
+ .. method:: strip_dirs()
+
+ This method for the :class:`Stats` class removes all leading path
+ information from file names. It is very useful in reducing the size of
+ the printout to fit within (close to) 80 columns. This method modifies
+ the object, and the stripped information is lost. After performing a
+ strip operation, the object is considered to have its entries in a
+ "random" order, as it was just after object initialization and loading.
+ If :meth:`~pstats.Stats.strip_dirs` causes two function names to be
+ indistinguishable (they are on the same line of the same filename, and
+ have the same function name), then the statistics for these two entries
+ are accumulated into a single entry.
+
+
+ .. method:: add(*filenames)
+
+ This method of the :class:`Stats` class accumulates additional profiling
+ information into the current profiling object. Its arguments should refer
+ to filenames created by the corresponding version of :func:`profile.run`
+ or :func:`cProfile.run`. Statistics for identically named (re: file, line,
+ name) functions are automatically accumulated into single function
+ statistics.
+
+
+ .. method:: dump_stats(filename)
+
+ Save the data loaded into the :class:`Stats` object to a file named
+ *filename*. The file is created if it does not exist, and is overwritten
+ if it already exists. This is equivalent to the method of the same name
+ on the :class:`profile.Profile` and :class:`cProfile.Profile` classes.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+ .. method:: sort_stats(*keys)
+
+ This method modifies the :class:`Stats` object by sorting it according to
+ the supplied criteria. The argument is typically a string identifying the
+ basis of a sort (example: ``'time'`` or ``'name'``).
+
+ When more than one key is provided, then additional keys are used as
+ secondary criteria when there is equality in all keys selected before
+ them. For example, ``sort_stats('name', 'file')`` will sort all the
+ entries according to their function name, and resolve all ties (identical
+ function names) by sorting by file name.
+
+ Abbreviations can be used for any key names, as long as the abbreviation
+ is unambiguous. The following are the keys currently defined:
+
+ +------------------+----------------------+
+ | Valid Arg | Meaning |
+ +==================+======================+
+ | ``'calls'`` | call count |
+ +------------------+----------------------+
+ | ``'cumulative'`` | cumulative time |
+ +------------------+----------------------+
+ | ``'cumtime'`` | cumulative time |
+ +------------------+----------------------+
+ | ``'file'`` | file name |
+ +------------------+----------------------+
+ | ``'filename'`` | file name |
+ +------------------+----------------------+
+ | ``'module'`` | file name |
+ +------------------+----------------------+
+ | ``'ncalls'`` | call count |
+ +------------------+----------------------+
+ | ``'pcalls'`` | primitive call count |
+ +------------------+----------------------+
+ | ``'line'`` | line number |
+ +------------------+----------------------+
+ | ``'name'`` | function name |
+ +------------------+----------------------+
+ | ``'nfl'`` | name/file/line |
+ +------------------+----------------------+
+ | ``'stdname'`` | standard name |
+ +------------------+----------------------+
+ | ``'time'`` | internal time |
+ +------------------+----------------------+
+ | ``'tottime'`` | internal time |
+ +------------------+----------------------+
+
+ Note that all sorts on statistics are in descending order (placing most
+ time consuming items first), where as name, file, and line number searches
+ are in ascending order (alphabetical). The subtle distinction between
+ ``'nfl'`` and ``'stdname'`` is that the standard name is a sort of the
+ name as printed, which means that the embedded line numbers get compared
+ in an odd way. For example, lines 3, 20, and 40 would (if the file names
+ were the same) appear in the string order 20, 3 and 40. In contrast,
+ ``'nfl'`` does a numeric compare of the line numbers. In fact,
+ ``sort_stats('nfl')`` is the same as ``sort_stats('name', 'file',
+ 'line')``.
+
+ For backward-compatibility reasons, the numeric arguments ``-1``, ``0``,
+ ``1``, and ``2`` are permitted. They are interpreted as ``'stdname'``,
+ ``'calls'``, ``'time'``, and ``'cumulative'`` respectively. If this old
+ style format (numeric) is used, only one sort key (the numeric key) will
+ be used, and additional arguments will be silently ignored.
+
+ .. For compatibility with the old profiler.
+
+
+ .. method:: reverse_order()
+
+ This method for the :class:`Stats` class reverses the ordering of the
+ basic list within the object. Note that by default ascending vs
+ descending order is properly selected based on the sort key of choice.
+
+ .. This method is provided primarily for compatibility with the old
+ profiler.
+
+
+ .. method:: print_stats(*restrictions)
+
+ This method for the :class:`Stats` class prints out a report as described
+ in the :func:`profile.run` definition.
+
+ The order of the printing is based on the last
+ :meth:`~pstats.Stats.sort_stats` operation done on the object (subject to
+ caveats in :meth:`~pstats.Stats.add` and
+ :meth:`~pstats.Stats.strip_dirs`).
+
+ The arguments provided (if any) can be used to limit the list down to the
+ significant entries. Initially, the list is taken to be the complete set
+ of profiled functions. Each restriction is either an integer (to select a
+ count of lines), or a decimal fraction between 0.0 and 1.0 inclusive (to
+ select a percentage of lines), or a regular expression (to pattern match
+ the standard name that is printed. If several restrictions are provided,
+ then they are applied sequentially. For example::
+
+ print_stats(.1, 'foo:')
+
+ would first limit the printing to first 10% of list, and then only print
+ functions that were part of filename :file:`.\*foo:`. In contrast, the
+ command::
+
+ print_stats('foo:', .1)
+
+ would limit the list to all functions having file names :file:`.\*foo:`,
+ and then proceed to only print the first 10% of them.
+
+
+ .. method:: print_callers(*restrictions)
+
+ This method for the :class:`Stats` class prints a list of all functions
+ that called each function in the profiled database. The ordering is
+ identical to that provided by :meth:`~pstats.Stats.print_stats`, and the
+ definition of the restricting argument is also identical. Each caller is
+ reported on its own line. The format differs slightly depending on the
+ profiler that produced the stats:
+
+ * With :mod:`profile`, a number is shown in parentheses after each caller
+ to show how many times this specific call was made. For convenience, a
+ second non-parenthesized number repeats the cumulative time spent in the
+ function at the right.
+
+ * With :mod:`cProfile`, each caller is preceded by three numbers: the
+ number of times this specific call was made, and the total and
+ cumulative times spent in the current function while it was invoked by
+ this specific caller.
+
+
+ .. method:: print_callees(*restrictions)
+
+ This method for the :class:`Stats` class prints a list of all function
+ that were called by the indicated function. Aside from this reversal of
+ direction of calls (re: called vs was called by), the arguments and
+ ordering are identical to the :meth:`~pstats.Stats.print_callers` method.
+
+
+.. _deterministic-profiling:
+
+What Is Deterministic Profiling?
+================================
+
+:dfn:`Deterministic profiling` is meant to reflect the fact that all *function
+call*, *function return*, and *exception* events are monitored, and precise
+timings are made for the intervals between these events (during which time the
+user's code is executing). In contrast, :dfn:`statistical profiling` (which is
+not done by this module) randomly samples the effective instruction pointer, and
+deduces where time is being spent. The latter technique traditionally involves
+less overhead (as the code does not need to be instrumented), but provides only
+relative indications of where time is being spent.
+
+In Python, since there is an interpreter active during execution, the presence
+of instrumented code is not required to do deterministic profiling. Python
+automatically provides a :dfn:`hook` (optional callback) for each event. In
+addition, the interpreted nature of Python tends to add so much overhead to
+execution, that deterministic profiling tends to only add small processing
+overhead in typical applications. The result is that deterministic profiling is
+not that expensive, yet provides extensive run time statistics about the
+execution of a Python program.
+
+Call count statistics can be used to identify bugs in code (surprising counts),
+and to identify possible inline-expansion points (high call counts). Internal
+time statistics can be used to identify "hot loops" that should be carefully
+optimized. Cumulative time statistics should be used to identify high level
+errors in the selection of algorithms. Note that the unusual handling of
+cumulative times in this profiler allows statistics for recursive
+implementations of algorithms to be directly compared to iterative
+implementations.
+
+
+.. _profile-limitations:
+
+Limitations
+===========
+
+One limitation has to do with accuracy of timing information. There is a
+fundamental problem with deterministic profilers involving accuracy. The most
+obvious restriction is that the underlying "clock" is only ticking at a rate
+(typically) of about .001 seconds. Hence no measurements will be more accurate
+than the underlying clock. If enough measurements are taken, then the "error"
+will tend to average out. Unfortunately, removing this first error induces a
+second source of error.
+
+The second problem is that it "takes a while" from when an event is dispatched
+until the profiler's call to get the time actually *gets* the state of the
+clock. Similarly, there is a certain lag when exiting the profiler event
+handler from the time that the clock's value was obtained (and then squirreled
+away), until the user's code is once again executing. As a result, functions
+that are called many times, or call many functions, will typically accumulate
+this error. The error that accumulates in this fashion is typically less than
+the accuracy of the clock (less than one clock tick), but it *can* accumulate
+and become very significant.
+
+The problem is more important with :mod:`profile` than with the lower-overhead
+:mod:`cProfile`. For this reason, :mod:`profile` provides a means of
+calibrating itself for a given platform so that this error can be
+probabilistically (on the average) removed. After the profiler is calibrated, it
+will be more accurate (in a least square sense), but it will sometimes produce
+negative numbers (when call counts are exceptionally low, and the gods of
+probability work against you :-). ) Do *not* be alarmed by negative numbers in
+the profile. They should *only* appear if you have calibrated your profiler,
+and the results are actually better than without calibration.
+
+
+.. _profile-calibration:
+
+Calibration
+===========
+
+The profiler of the :mod:`profile` module subtracts a constant from each event
+handling time to compensate for the overhead of calling the time function, and
+socking away the results. By default, the constant is 0. The following
+procedure can be used to obtain a better constant for a given platform (see
+:ref:`profile-limitations`). ::
+
+ import profile
+ pr = profile.Profile()
+ for i in range(5):
+ print pr.calibrate(10000)
+
+The method executes the number of Python calls given by the argument, directly
+and again under the profiler, measuring the time for both. It then computes the
+hidden overhead per profiler event, and returns that as a float. For example,
+on a 1.8Ghz Intel Core i5 running Mac OS X, and using Python's time.clock() as
+the timer, the magical number is about 4.04e-6.
+
+The object of this exercise is to get a fairly consistent result. If your
+computer is *very* fast, or your timer function has poor resolution, you might
+have to pass 100000, or even 1000000, to get consistent results.
+
+When you have a consistent answer, there are three ways you can use it: [#]_ ::
+
+ import profile
+
+ # 1. Apply computed bias to all Profile instances created hereafter.
+ profile.Profile.bias = your_computed_bias
+
+ # 2. Apply computed bias to a specific Profile instance.
+ pr = profile.Profile()
+ pr.bias = your_computed_bias
+
+ # 3. Specify computed bias in instance constructor.
+ pr = profile.Profile(bias=your_computed_bias)
+
+If you have a choice, you are better off choosing a smaller constant, and then
+your results will "less often" show up as negative in profile statistics.
+
+.. _profile-timers:
+
+Using a customer timer
+======================
+
+If you want to change how current time is determined (for example, to force use
+of wall-clock time or elapsed process time), pass the timing function you want
+to the :class:`Profile` class constructor::
+
+ pr = profile.Profile(your_time_func)
+
+The resulting profiler will then call ``your_time_func``. Depending on whether
+you are using :class:`profile.Profile` or :class:`cProfile.Profile`,
+``your_time_func``'s return value will be interpreted differently:
+
+:class:`profile.Profile`
+ ``your_time_func`` should return a single number, or a list of numbers whose
+ sum is the current time (like what :func:`os.times` returns). If the
+ function returns a single time number, or the list of returned numbers has
+ length 2, then you will get an especially fast version of the dispatch
+ routine.
+
+ Be warned that you should calibrate the profiler class for the timer function
+ that you choose (see :ref:`profile-calibration`). For most machines, a timer
+ that returns a lone integer value will provide the best results in terms of
+ low overhead during profiling. (:func:`os.times` is *pretty* bad, as it
+ returns a tuple of floating point values). If you want to substitute a
+ better timer in the cleanest fashion, derive a class and hardwire a
+ replacement dispatch method that best handles your timer call, along with the
+ appropriate calibration constant.
+
+:class:`cProfile.Profile`
+ ``your_time_func`` should return a single number. If it returns integers,
+ you can also invoke the class constructor with a second argument specifying
+ the real duration of one unit of time. For example, if
+ ``your_integer_time_func`` returns times measured in thousands of seconds,
+ you would construct the :class:`Profile` instance as follows::
+
+ pr = cProfile.Profile(your_integer_time_func, 0.001)
+
+ As the :mod:`cProfile.Profile` class cannot be calibrated, custom timer
+ functions should be used with care and should be as fast as possible. For
+ the best results with a custom timer, it might be necessary to hard-code it
+ in the C source of the internal :mod:`_lsprof` module.
+
+
+.. rubric:: Footnotes
+
+.. [#] Prior to Python 2.2, it was necessary to edit the profiler source code to
+ embed the bias as a literal number. You still can, but that method is no longer
+ described, because no longer needed.

+ :platform: Linux
+ :synopsis: Pseudo-Terminal Handling for Linux.
+.. moduleauthor:: Steen Lumholt

+
+
+The :mod:`pty` module defines operations for handling the pseudo-terminal
+concept: starting another process and being able to write to and read from its
+controlling terminal programmatically.
+
+Because pseudo-terminal handling is highly platform dependent, there is code to
+do it only for Linux. (The Linux code is supposed to work on other platforms,
+but hasn't been tested yet.)
+
+The :mod:`pty` module defines the following functions:
+
+
+.. function:: fork()
+
+ Fork. Connect the child's controlling terminal to a pseudo-terminal. Return
+ value is ``(pid, fd)``. Note that the child gets *pid* 0, and the *fd* is
+ *invalid*. The parent's return value is the *pid* of the child, and *fd* is a
+ file descriptor connected to the child's controlling terminal (and also to the
+ child's standard input and output).
+
+
+.. function:: openpty()
+
+ Open a new pseudo-terminal pair, using :func:`os.openpty` if possible, or
+ emulation code for generic Unix systems. Return a pair of file descriptors
+ ``(master, slave)``, for the master and the slave end, respectively.
+
+
+.. function:: spawn(argv[, master_read[, stdin_read]])
+
+ Spawn a process, and connect its controlling terminal with the current

+ reading from the controlling terminal.
+

+.. documentation based on module docstrings
+
+.. index:: pair: file; byte-code
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/py_compile.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`py_compile` module provides a function to generate a byte-code file
+from a source file, and another function used when the module source file is
+invoked as a script.
+
+Though not often needed, this function can be useful when installing modules for
+shared use, especially if some of the users may not have permission to write the
+byte-code cache files in the directory containing the source code.
+
+
+.. exception:: PyCompileError
+
+ Exception raised when an error occurs while attempting to compile the file.
+
+
+.. function:: compile(file[, cfile[, dfile[, doraise]]])
+
+ Compile a source file to byte-code and write out the byte-code cache file. The
+ source code is loaded from the file name *file*. The byte-code is written to
+ *cfile*, which defaults to *file* ``+`` ``'c'`` (``'o'`` if optimization is
+ enabled in the current interpreter). If *dfile* is specified, it is used as the
+ name of the source file in error messages instead of *file*. If *doraise* is
+ true, a :exc:`PyCompileError` is raised when an error is encountered while
+ compiling *file*. If *doraise* is false (the default), an error string is
+ written to ``sys.stderr``, but no exception is raised.
+
+
+.. function:: main([args])
+
+ Compile several source files. The files named in *args* (or on the command
+ line, if *args* is not specified) are compiled and the resulting bytecode is
+ cached in the normal manner. This function does not search a directory
+ structure to locate source files; it only compiles files named explicitly.
+ If ``'-'`` is the only parameter in args, the list of files is taken from
+ standard input.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ Added support for ``'-'``.
+
+When this module is run as a script, the :func:`main` is used to compile all the

+:mod:`pyclbr` --- Python class browser support
+==============================================
+
+.. module:: pyclbr
+ :synopsis: Supports information extraction for a Python class browser.
+.. sectionauthor:: Fred L. Drake, Jr. <[email protected]>
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/pyclbr.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`pyclbr` module can be used to determine some limited information
+about the classes, methods and top-level functions defined in a module. The
+information provided is sufficient to implement a traditional three-pane
+class browser. The information is extracted from the source code rather
+than by importing the module, so this module is safe to use with untrusted
+code. This restriction makes it impossible to use this module with modules
+not implemented in Python, including all standard and optional extension
+modules.
+
+
+.. function:: readmodule(module, path=None)
+
+ Read a module and return a dictionary mapping class names to class
+ descriptor objects. The parameter *module* should be the name of a
+ module as a string; it may be the name of a module within a package. The
+ *path* parameter should be a sequence, and is used to augment the value
+ of ``sys.path``, which is used to locate module source code.
+
+
+.. function:: readmodule_ex(module, path=None)
+
+ Like :func:`readmodule`, but the returned dictionary, in addition to
+ mapping class names to class descriptor objects, also maps top-level
+ function names to function descriptor objects. Moreover, if the module
+ being read is a package, the key ``'__path__'`` in the returned
+ dictionary has as its value a list which contains the package search
+ path.
+
+
+.. _pyclbr-class-objects:
+
+Class Objects
+-------------
+
+The :class:`Class` objects used as values in the dictionary returned by
+:func:`readmodule` and :func:`readmodule_ex` provide the following data
+attributes:
+
+
+.. attribute:: Class.module
+
+ The name of the module defining the class described by the class descriptor.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Class.name
+
+ The name of the class.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Class.super
+
+ A list of :class:`Class` objects which describe the immediate base
+ classes of the class being described. Classes which are named as
+ superclasses but which are not discoverable by :func:`readmodule` are
+ listed as a string with the class name instead of as :class:`Class`
+ objects.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Class.methods
+
+ A dictionary mapping method names to line numbers.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Class.file
+
+ Name of the file containing the ``class`` statement defining the class.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Class.lineno
+
+ The line number of the ``class`` statement within the file named by
+ :attr:`~Class.file`.
+
+
+.. _pyclbr-function-objects:
+
+Function Objects
+----------------
+
+The :class:`Function` objects used as values in the dictionary returned by
+:func:`readmodule_ex` provide the following attributes:
+
+
+.. attribute:: Function.module
+
+ The name of the module defining the function described by the function
+ descriptor.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Function.name
+
+ The name of the function.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Function.file
+
+ Name of the file containing the ``def`` statement defining the function.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Function.lineno
+
+ The line number of the ``def`` statement within the file named by
+ :attr:`~Function.file`.

+:mod:`pydoc` --- Documentation generator and online help system
+===============================================================
+
+.. module:: pydoc
+ :synopsis: Documentation generator and online help system.
+.. moduleauthor:: Ka-Ping Yee <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Ka-Ping Yee <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.1
+
+.. index::
+ single: documentation; generation
+ single: documentation; online
+ single: help; online
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/pydoc.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`pydoc` module automatically generates documentation from Python
+modules. The documentation can be presented as pages of text on the console,
+served to a Web browser, or saved to HTML files.
+
+The built-in function :func:`help` invokes the online help system in the
+interactive interpreter, which uses :mod:`pydoc` to generate its documentation
+as text on the console. The same text documentation can also be viewed from
+outside the Python interpreter by running :program:`pydoc` as a script at the
+operating system's command prompt. For example, running ::
+
+ pydoc sys
+
+at a shell prompt will display documentation on the :mod:`sys` module, in a
+style similar to the manual pages shown by the Unix :program:`man` command. The
+argument to :program:`pydoc` can be the name of a function, module, or package,
+or a dotted reference to a class, method, or function within a module or module
+in a package. If the argument to :program:`pydoc` looks like a path (that is,
+it contains the path separator for your operating system, such as a slash in
+Unix), and refers to an existing Python source file, then documentation is
+produced for that file.
+
+.. note::
+
+ In order to find objects and their documentation, :mod:`pydoc` imports the
+ module(s) to be documented. Therefore, any code on module level will be
+ executed on that occasion. Use an ``if __name__ == '__main__':`` guard to
+ only execute code when a file is invoked as a script and not just imported.
+
+Specifying a ``-w`` flag before the argument will cause HTML documentation
+to be written out to a file in the current directory, instead of displaying text
+on the console.
+
+Specifying a ``-k`` flag before the argument will search the synopsis
+lines of all available modules for the keyword given as the argument, again in a
+manner similar to the Unix :program:`man` command. The synopsis line of a
+module is the first line of its documentation string.
+
+You can also use :program:`pydoc` to start an HTTP server on the local machine
+that will serve documentation to visiting Web browsers. :program:`pydoc -p 1234`
+will start a HTTP server on port 1234, allowing you to browse
+the documentation at ``http://localhost:1234/`` in your preferred Web browser.
+:program:`pydoc -g` will start the server and additionally bring up a
+small :mod:`Tkinter`\ -based graphical interface to help you search for
+documentation pages.
+
+When :program:`pydoc` generates documentation, it uses the current environment
+and path to locate modules. Thus, invoking :program:`pydoc spam`
+documents precisely the version of the module you would get if you started the
+Python interpreter and typed ``import spam``.
+
+Module docs for core modules are assumed to reside in
+http://docs.python.org/library/. This can be overridden by setting the
+:envvar:`PYTHONDOCS` environment variable to a different URL or to a local
+directory containing the Library Reference Manual pages.

+:mod:`xml.parsers.expat` --- Fast XML parsing using Expat
+=========================================================
+
+.. module:: xml.parsers.expat
+ :synopsis: An interface to the Expat non-validating XML parser.
+.. moduleauthor:: Paul Prescod <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. Markup notes:
+
+ Many of the attributes of the XMLParser objects are callbacks. Since
+ signature information must be presented, these are described using the method
+ directive. Since they are attributes which are set by client code, in-text
+ references to these attributes should be marked using the :member: role.
+
+
+.. warning::
+
+ The :mod:`pyexpat` module is not secure against maliciously
+ constructed data. If you need to parse untrusted or unauthenticated data see
+ :ref:`xml-vulnerabilities`.
+
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+.. index:: single: Expat
+
+The :mod:`xml.parsers.expat` module is a Python interface to the Expat
+non-validating XML parser. The module provides a single extension type,
+:class:`xmlparser`, that represents the current state of an XML parser. After
+an :class:`xmlparser` object has been created, various attributes of the object
+can be set to handler functions. When an XML document is then fed to the
+parser, the handler functions are called for the character data and markup in
+the XML document.
+
+.. index:: module: pyexpat
+
+This module uses the :mod:`pyexpat` module to provide access to the Expat
+parser. Direct use of the :mod:`pyexpat` module is deprecated.
+
+This module provides one exception and one type object:
+
+
+.. exception:: ExpatError
+
+ The exception raised when Expat reports an error. See section
+ :ref:`expaterror-objects` for more information on interpreting Expat errors.
+
+
+.. exception:: error
+
+ Alias for :exc:`ExpatError`.
+
+
+.. data:: XMLParserType
+
+ The type of the return values from the :func:`ParserCreate` function.
+
+The :mod:`xml.parsers.expat` module contains two functions:
+
+
+.. function:: ErrorString(errno)
+
+ Returns an explanatory string for a given error number *errno*.
+
+
+.. function:: ParserCreate([encoding[, namespace_separator]])
+
+ Creates and returns a new :class:`xmlparser` object. *encoding*, if specified,
+ must be a string naming the encoding used by the XML data. Expat doesn't
+ support as many encodings as Python does, and its repertoire of encodings can't
+ be extended; it supports UTF-8, UTF-16, ISO-8859-1 (Latin1), and ASCII. If
+ *encoding* [1]_ is given it will override the implicit or explicit encoding of the
+ document.
+
+ Expat can optionally do XML namespace processing for you, enabled by providing a
+ value for *namespace_separator*. The value must be a one-character string; a
+ :exc:`ValueError` will be raised if the string has an illegal length (``None``
+ is considered the same as omission). When namespace processing is enabled,
+ element type names and attribute names that belong to a namespace will be
+ expanded. The element name passed to the element handlers
+ :attr:`StartElementHandler` and :attr:`EndElementHandler` will be the
+ concatenation of the namespace URI, the namespace separator character, and the
+ local part of the name. If the namespace separator is a zero byte (``chr(0)``)
+ then the namespace URI and the local part will be concatenated without any
+ separator.
+
+ For example, if *namespace_separator* is set to a space character (``' '``) and
+ the following document is parsed::
+
+ <?xml version="1.0"?>
+ <root xmlns = "http://default-namespace.org/"
+ xmlns:py = "http://www.python.org/ns/">
+ <py:elem1 />
+ <elem2 xmlns="" />
+ </root>
+
+ :attr:`StartElementHandler` will receive the following strings for each
+ element::
+
+ http://default-namespace.org/ root
+ http://www.python.org/ns/ elem1
+ elem2
+
+

+
+
+.. _xmlparser-objects:
+
+XMLParser Objects
+-----------------
+
+:class:`xmlparser` objects have the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: xmlparser.Parse(data[, isfinal])
+
+ Parses the contents of the string *data*, calling the appropriate handler
+ functions to process the parsed data. *isfinal* must be true on the final call
+ to this method. *data* can be the empty string at any time.
+
+
+.. method:: xmlparser.ParseFile(file)
+
+ Parse XML data reading from the object *file*. *file* only needs to provide
+ the ``read(nbytes)`` method, returning the empty string when there's no more
+ data.
+
+
+.. method:: xmlparser.SetBase(base)
+
+ Sets the base to be used for resolving relative URIs in system identifiers in
+ declarations. Resolving relative identifiers is left to the application: this
+ value will be passed through as the *base* argument to the
+ :func:`ExternalEntityRefHandler`, :func:`NotationDeclHandler`, and
+ :func:`UnparsedEntityDeclHandler` functions.
+
+
+.. method:: xmlparser.GetBase()
+
+ Returns a string containing the base set by a previous call to :meth:`SetBase`,
+ or ``None`` if :meth:`SetBase` hasn't been called.
+
+
+.. method:: xmlparser.GetInputContext()
+
+ Returns the input data that generated the current event as a string. The data is
+ in the encoding of the entity which contains the text. When called while an
+ event handler is not active, the return value is ``None``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.1
+
+
+.. method:: xmlparser.ExternalEntityParserCreate(context[, encoding])
+
+ Create a "child" parser which can be used to parse an external parsed entity
+ referred to by content parsed by the parent parser. The *context* parameter
+ should be the string passed to the :meth:`ExternalEntityRefHandler` handler
+ function, described below. The child parser is created with the
+ :attr:`ordered_attributes`, :attr:`returns_unicode` and
+ :attr:`specified_attributes` set to the values of this parser.
+
+.. method:: xmlparser.SetParamEntityParsing(flag)
+
+ Control parsing of parameter entities (including the external DTD subset).
+ Possible *flag* values are :const:`XML_PARAM_ENTITY_PARSING_NEVER`,
+ :const:`XML_PARAM_ENTITY_PARSING_UNLESS_STANDALONE` and
+ :const:`XML_PARAM_ENTITY_PARSING_ALWAYS`. Return true if setting the flag
+ was successful.
+
+.. method:: xmlparser.UseForeignDTD([flag])
+
+ Calling this with a true value for *flag* (the default) will cause Expat to call
+ the :attr:`ExternalEntityRefHandler` with :const:`None` for all arguments to
+ allow an alternate DTD to be loaded. If the document does not contain a
+ document type declaration, the :attr:`ExternalEntityRefHandler` will still be
+ called, but the :attr:`StartDoctypeDeclHandler` and
+ :attr:`EndDoctypeDeclHandler` will not be called.
+
+ Passing a false value for *flag* will cancel a previous call that passed a true
+ value, but otherwise has no effect.
+
+ This method can only be called before the :meth:`Parse` or :meth:`ParseFile`
+ methods are called; calling it after either of those have been called causes
+ :exc:`ExpatError` to be raised with the :attr:`code` attribute set to
+ :const:`errors.XML_ERROR_CANT_CHANGE_FEATURE_ONCE_PARSING`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+:class:`xmlparser` objects have the following attributes:
+
+
+.. attribute:: xmlparser.buffer_size
+
+ The size of the buffer used when :attr:`buffer_text` is true.
+ A new buffer size can be set by assigning a new integer value
+ to this attribute.
+ When the size is changed, the buffer will be flushed.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ The buffer size can now be changed.
+
+.. attribute:: xmlparser.buffer_text
+
+ Setting this to true causes the :class:`xmlparser` object to buffer textual
+ content returned by Expat to avoid multiple calls to the
+ :meth:`CharacterDataHandler` callback whenever possible. This can improve
+ performance substantially since Expat normally breaks character data into chunks
+ at every line ending. This attribute is false by default, and may be changed at
+ any time.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. attribute:: xmlparser.buffer_used
+
+ If :attr:`buffer_text` is enabled, the number of bytes stored in the buffer.
+ These bytes represent UTF-8 encoded text. This attribute has no meaningful
+ interpretation when :attr:`buffer_text` is false.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. attribute:: xmlparser.ordered_attributes
+
+ Setting this attribute to a non-zero integer causes the attributes to be
+ reported as a list rather than a dictionary. The attributes are presented in
+ the order found in the document text. For each attribute, two list entries are
+ presented: the attribute name and the attribute value. (Older versions of this
+ module also used this format.) By default, this attribute is false; it may be
+ changed at any time.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.1
+
+
+.. attribute:: xmlparser.returns_unicode
+
+ If this attribute is set to a non-zero integer, the handler functions will be
+ passed Unicode strings. If :attr:`returns_unicode` is :const:`False`, 8-bit
+ strings containing UTF-8 encoded data will be passed to the handlers. This is
+ :const:`True` by default when Python is built with Unicode support.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 1.6
+ Can be changed at any time to affect the result type.
+
+
+.. attribute:: xmlparser.specified_attributes
+
+ If set to a non-zero integer, the parser will report only those attributes which
+ were specified in the document instance and not those which were derived from
+ attribute declarations. Applications which set this need to be especially
+ careful to use what additional information is available from the declarations as
+ needed to comply with the standards for the behavior of XML processors. By
+ default, this attribute is false; it may be changed at any time.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.1
+
+The following attributes contain values relating to the most recent error
+encountered by an :class:`xmlparser` object, and will only have correct values
+once a call to :meth:`Parse` or :meth:`ParseFile` has raised a
+:exc:`xml.parsers.expat.ExpatError` exception.
+
+
+.. attribute:: xmlparser.ErrorByteIndex
+
+ Byte index at which an error occurred.
+
+
+.. attribute:: xmlparser.ErrorCode
+
+ Numeric code specifying the problem. This value can be passed to the
+ :func:`ErrorString` function, or compared to one of the constants defined in the
+ ``errors`` object.
+
+
+.. attribute:: xmlparser.ErrorColumnNumber
+
+ Column number at which an error occurred.
+
+
+.. attribute:: xmlparser.ErrorLineNumber
+
+ Line number at which an error occurred.
+
+The following attributes contain values relating to the current parse location
+in an :class:`xmlparser` object. During a callback reporting a parse event they
+indicate the location of the first of the sequence of characters that generated
+the event. When called outside of a callback, the position indicated will be
+just past the last parse event (regardless of whether there was an associated
+callback).
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+.. attribute:: xmlparser.CurrentByteIndex
+
+ Current byte index in the parser input.
+
+
+.. attribute:: xmlparser.CurrentColumnNumber
+
+ Current column number in the parser input.
+
+
+.. attribute:: xmlparser.CurrentLineNumber
+
+ Current line number in the parser input.
+
+Here is the list of handlers that can be set. To set a handler on an
+:class:`xmlparser` object *o*, use ``o.handlername = func``. *handlername* must
+be taken from the following list, and *func* must be a callable object accepting
+the correct number of arguments. The arguments are all strings, unless
+otherwise stated.
+
+
+.. method:: xmlparser.XmlDeclHandler(version, encoding, standalone)
+
+ Called when the XML declaration is parsed. The XML declaration is the
+ (optional) declaration of the applicable version of the XML recommendation, the
+ encoding of the document text, and an optional "standalone" declaration.
+ *version* and *encoding* will be strings of the type dictated by the
+ :attr:`returns_unicode` attribute, and *standalone* will be ``1`` if the
+ document is declared standalone, ``0`` if it is declared not to be standalone,
+ or ``-1`` if the standalone clause was omitted. This is only available with
+ Expat version 1.95.0 or newer.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.1
+
+
+.. method:: xmlparser.StartDoctypeDeclHandler(doctypeName, systemId, publicId, has_internal_subset)
+
+ Called when Expat begins parsing the document type declaration (``<!DOCTYPE
+ ...``). The *doctypeName* is provided exactly as presented. The *systemId* and
+ *publicId* parameters give the system and public identifiers if specified, or
+ ``None`` if omitted. *has_internal_subset* will be true if the document
+ contains and internal document declaration subset. This requires Expat version
+ 1.2 or newer.
+
+
+.. method:: xmlparser.EndDoctypeDeclHandler()
+
+ Called when Expat is done parsing the document type declaration. This requires
+ Expat version 1.2 or newer.
+
+
+.. method:: xmlparser.ElementDeclHandler(name, model)
+
+ Called once for each element type declaration. *name* is the name of the
+ element type, and *model* is a representation of the content model.
+
+
+.. method:: xmlparser.AttlistDeclHandler(elname, attname, type, default, required)
+
+ Called for each declared attribute for an element type. If an attribute list
+ declaration declares three attributes, this handler is called three times, once
+ for each attribute. *elname* is the name of the element to which the
+ declaration applies and *attname* is the name of the attribute declared. The
+ attribute type is a string passed as *type*; the possible values are
+ ``'CDATA'``, ``'ID'``, ``'IDREF'``, ... *default* gives the default value for
+ the attribute used when the attribute is not specified by the document instance,
+ or ``None`` if there is no default value (``#IMPLIED`` values). If the
+ attribute is required to be given in the document instance, *required* will be
+ true. This requires Expat version 1.95.0 or newer.
+
+
+.. method:: xmlparser.StartElementHandler(name, attributes)
+
+ Called for the start of every element. *name* is a string containing the
+ element name, and *attributes* is a dictionary mapping attribute names to their
+ values.
+
+
+.. method:: xmlparser.EndElementHandler(name)
+
+ Called for the end of every element.
+
+
+.. method:: xmlparser.ProcessingInstructionHandler(target, data)
+
+ Called for every processing instruction.
+
+
+.. method:: xmlparser.CharacterDataHandler(data)
+
+ Called for character data. This will be called for normal character data, CDATA
+ marked content, and ignorable whitespace. Applications which must distinguish
+ these cases can use the :attr:`StartCdataSectionHandler`,
+ :attr:`EndCdataSectionHandler`, and :attr:`ElementDeclHandler` callbacks to
+ collect the required information.
+
+
+.. method:: xmlparser.UnparsedEntityDeclHandler(entityName, base, systemId, publicId, notationName)
+
+ Called for unparsed (NDATA) entity declarations. This is only present for
+ version 1.2 of the Expat library; for more recent versions, use
+ :attr:`EntityDeclHandler` instead. (The underlying function in the Expat
+ library has been declared obsolete.)
+
+
+.. method:: xmlparser.EntityDeclHandler(entityName, is_parameter_entity, value, base, systemId, publicId, notationName)
+
+ Called for all entity declarations. For parameter and internal entities,
+ *value* will be a string giving the declared contents of the entity; this will
+ be ``None`` for external entities. The *notationName* parameter will be
+ ``None`` for parsed entities, and the name of the notation for unparsed
+ entities. *is_parameter_entity* will be true if the entity is a parameter entity
+ or false for general entities (most applications only need to be concerned with
+ general entities). This is only available starting with version 1.95.0 of the
+ Expat library.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.1
+
+
+.. method:: xmlparser.NotationDeclHandler(notationName, base, systemId, publicId)
+
+ Called for notation declarations. *notationName*, *base*, and *systemId*, and
+ *publicId* are strings if given. If the public identifier is omitted,
+ *publicId* will be ``None``.
+
+
+.. method:: xmlparser.StartNamespaceDeclHandler(prefix, uri)
+
+ Called when an element contains a namespace declaration. Namespace declarations
+ are processed before the :attr:`StartElementHandler` is called for the element
+ on which declarations are placed.
+
+
+.. method:: xmlparser.EndNamespaceDeclHandler(prefix)
+
+ Called when the closing tag is reached for an element that contained a
+ namespace declaration. This is called once for each namespace declaration on
+ the element in the reverse of the order for which the
+ :attr:`StartNamespaceDeclHandler` was called to indicate the start of each
+ namespace declaration's scope. Calls to this handler are made after the
+ corresponding :attr:`EndElementHandler` for the end of the element.
+
+
+.. method:: xmlparser.CommentHandler(data)
+
+ Called for comments. *data* is the text of the comment, excluding the leading
+ ``'<!-``\ ``-'`` and trailing ``'-``\ ``->'``.
+
+
+.. method:: xmlparser.StartCdataSectionHandler()
+
+ Called at the start of a CDATA section. This and :attr:`EndCdataSectionHandler`
+ are needed to be able to identify the syntactical start and end for CDATA
+ sections.
+
+
+.. method:: xmlparser.EndCdataSectionHandler()
+
+ Called at the end of a CDATA section.
+
+
+.. method:: xmlparser.DefaultHandler(data)
+
+ Called for any characters in the XML document for which no applicable handler
+ has been specified. This means characters that are part of a construct which
+ could be reported, but for which no handler has been supplied.
+
+
+.. method:: xmlparser.DefaultHandlerExpand(data)
+
+ This is the same as the :func:`DefaultHandler`, but doesn't inhibit expansion
+ of internal entities. The entity reference will not be passed to the default
+ handler.
+
+
+.. method:: xmlparser.NotStandaloneHandler()
+
+ Called if the XML document hasn't been declared as being a standalone document.
+ This happens when there is an external subset or a reference to a parameter
+ entity, but the XML declaration does not set standalone to ``yes`` in an XML
+ declaration. If this handler returns ``0``, then the parser will raise an
+ :const:`XML_ERROR_NOT_STANDALONE` error. If this handler is not set, no
+ exception is raised by the parser for this condition.
+
+
+.. method:: xmlparser.ExternalEntityRefHandler(context, base, systemId, publicId)
+
+ Called for references to external entities. *base* is the current base, as set
+ by a previous call to :meth:`SetBase`. The public and system identifiers,
+ *systemId* and *publicId*, are strings if given; if the public identifier is not
+ given, *publicId* will be ``None``. The *context* value is opaque and should
+ only be used as described below.
+
+ For external entities to be parsed, this handler must be implemented. It is
+ responsible for creating the sub-parser using
+ ``ExternalEntityParserCreate(context)``, initializing it with the appropriate
+ callbacks, and parsing the entity. This handler should return an integer; if it
+ returns ``0``, the parser will raise an
+ :const:`XML_ERROR_EXTERNAL_ENTITY_HANDLING` error, otherwise parsing will
+ continue.
+
+ If this handler is not provided, external entities are reported by the
+ :attr:`DefaultHandler` callback, if provided.

+Example
+-------
+
+The following program defines three handlers that just print out their
+arguments. ::
+
+ import xml.parsers.expat
+
+ # 3 handler functions
+ def start_element(name, attrs):
+ print 'Start element:', name, attrs
+ def end_element(name):
+ print 'End element:', name
+ def char_data(data):

+
+Content Model Descriptions
+--------------------------
+
+.. sectionauthor:: Fred L. Drake, Jr. <[email protected]>
+
+
+Content modules are described using nested tuples. Each tuple contains four
+values: the type, the quantifier, the name, and a tuple of children. Children
+are simply additional content module descriptions.
+
+The values of the first two fields are constants defined in the ``model`` object
+of the :mod:`xml.parsers.expat` module. These constants can be collected in two
+groups: the model type group and the quantifier group.
+
+The constants in the model type group are:
+
+
+.. data:: XML_CTYPE_ANY
+ :noindex:
+
+ The element named by the model name was declared to have a content model of
+ ``ANY``.
+
+
+.. data:: XML_CTYPE_CHOICE
+ :noindex:
+
+ The named element allows a choice from a number of options; this is used for
+ content models such as ``(A | B | C)``.
+
+
+.. data:: XML_CTYPE_EMPTY
+ :noindex:
+
+ Elements which are declared to be ``EMPTY`` have this model type.
+
+
+.. data:: XML_CTYPE_MIXED
+ :noindex:
+
+
+.. data:: XML_CTYPE_NAME
+ :noindex:
+
+
+.. data:: XML_CTYPE_SEQ
+ :noindex:
+
+ Models which represent a series of models which follow one after the other are
+ indicated with this model type. This is used for models such as ``(A, B, C)``.
+
+The constants in the quantifier group are:
+
+
+.. data:: XML_CQUANT_NONE
+ :noindex:
+
+ No modifier is given, so it can appear exactly once, as for ``A``.
+
+
+.. data:: XML_CQUANT_OPT
+ :noindex:
+
+ The model is optional: it can appear once or not at all, as for ``A?``.
+
+
+.. data:: XML_CQUANT_PLUS
+ :noindex:
+
+ The model must occur one or more times (like ``A+``).
+
+
+.. data:: XML_CQUANT_REP
+ :noindex:
+
+ The model must occur zero or more times, as for ``A*``.
+
+
+.. _expat-errors:
+
+Expat error constants
+---------------------
+
+The following constants are provided in the ``errors`` object of the
+:mod:`xml.parsers.expat` module. These constants are useful in interpreting
+some of the attributes of the :exc:`ExpatError` exception objects raised when an
+error has occurred.
+
+The ``errors`` object has the following attributes:
+
+
+.. data:: XML_ERROR_ASYNC_ENTITY

+:mod:`Queue` --- A synchronized queue class
+===========================================
+
+.. module:: Queue
+ :synopsis: A synchronized queue class.
+
+.. note::
+ The :mod:`Queue` module has been renamed to :mod:`queue` in Python 3. The
+ :term:`2to3` tool will automatically adapt imports when converting your
+ sources to Python 3.
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/Queue.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`Queue` module implements multi-producer, multi-consumer queues.
+It is especially useful in threaded programming when information must be
+exchanged safely between multiple threads. The :class:`Queue` class in this
+module implements all the required locking semantics. It depends on the
+availability of thread support in Python; see the :mod:`threading`
+module.
+
+The module implements three types of queue, which differ only in the order in
+which the entries are retrieved. In a FIFO queue, the first tasks added are
+the first retrieved. In a LIFO queue, the most recently added entry is
+the first retrieved (operating like a stack). With a priority queue,
+the entries are kept sorted (using the :mod:`heapq` module) and the
+lowest valued entry is retrieved first.
+
+The :mod:`Queue` module defines the following classes and exceptions:
+
+.. class:: Queue(maxsize=0)
+
+ Constructor for a FIFO queue. *maxsize* is an integer that sets the upperbound
+ limit on the number of items that can be placed in the queue. Insertion will
+ block once this size has been reached, until queue items are consumed. If
+ *maxsize* is less than or equal to zero, the queue size is infinite.
+
+.. class:: LifoQueue(maxsize=0)
+
+ Constructor for a LIFO queue. *maxsize* is an integer that sets the upperbound
+ limit on the number of items that can be placed in the queue. Insertion will
+ block once this size has been reached, until queue items are consumed. If
+ *maxsize* is less than or equal to zero, the queue size is infinite.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+.. class:: PriorityQueue(maxsize=0)
+
+ Constructor for a priority queue. *maxsize* is an integer that sets the upperbound
+ limit on the number of items that can be placed in the queue. Insertion will
+ block once this size has been reached, until queue items are consumed. If
+ *maxsize* is less than or equal to zero, the queue size is infinite.
+
+ The lowest valued entries are retrieved first (the lowest valued entry is the
+ one returned by ``sorted(list(entries))[0]``). A typical pattern for entries
+ is a tuple in the form: ``(priority_number, data)``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+.. exception:: Empty
+
+ Exception raised when non-blocking :meth:`get` (or :meth:`get_nowait`) is called
+ on a :class:`Queue` object which is empty.
+
+
+.. exception:: Full
+
+ Exception raised when non-blocking :meth:`put` (or :meth:`put_nowait`) is called
+ on a :class:`Queue` object which is full.
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ :class:`collections.deque` is an alternative implementation of unbounded
+ queues with fast atomic :func:`append` and :func:`popleft` operations that
+ do not require locking.
+
+
+.. _queueobjects:
+
+Queue Objects
+-------------
+
+Queue objects (:class:`Queue`, :class:`LifoQueue`, or :class:`PriorityQueue`)
+provide the public methods described below.
+
+
+.. method:: Queue.qsize()
+
+ Return the approximate size of the queue. Note, qsize() > 0 doesn't
+ guarantee that a subsequent get() will not block, nor will qsize() < maxsize
+ guarantee that put() will not block.
+
+
+.. method:: Queue.empty()
+
+ Return ``True`` if the queue is empty, ``False`` otherwise. If empty()
+ returns ``True`` it doesn't guarantee that a subsequent call to put()
+ will not block. Similarly, if empty() returns ``False`` it doesn't
+ guarantee that a subsequent call to get() will not block.
+
+
+.. method:: Queue.full()
+
+ Return ``True`` if the queue is full, ``False`` otherwise. If full()
+ returns ``True`` it doesn't guarantee that a subsequent call to get()
+ will not block. Similarly, if full() returns ``False`` it doesn't
+ guarantee that a subsequent call to put() will not block.
+
+
+.. method:: Queue.put(item[, block[, timeout]])
+
+ Put *item* into the queue. If optional args *block* is true and *timeout* is
+ None (the default), block if necessary until a free slot is available. If
+ *timeout* is a positive number, it blocks at most *timeout* seconds and raises
+ the :exc:`Full` exception if no free slot was available within that time.
+ Otherwise (*block* is false), put an item on the queue if a free slot is
+ immediately available, else raise the :exc:`Full` exception (*timeout* is
+ ignored in that case).
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+ The *timeout* parameter.
+
+
+.. method:: Queue.put_nowait(item)
+
+ Equivalent to ``put(item, False)``.
+
+
+.. method:: Queue.get([block[, timeout]])
+
+ Remove and return an item from the queue. If optional args *block* is true and
+ *timeout* is None (the default), block if necessary until an item is available.
+ If *timeout* is a positive number, it blocks at most *timeout* seconds and
+ raises the :exc:`Empty` exception if no item was available within that time.
+ Otherwise (*block* is false), return an item if one is immediately available,
+ else raise the :exc:`Empty` exception (*timeout* is ignored in that case).
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+ The *timeout* parameter.
+
+
+.. method:: Queue.get_nowait()
+
+ Equivalent to ``get(False)``.
+
+Two methods are offered to support tracking whether enqueued tasks have been
+fully processed by daemon consumer threads.
+
+
+.. method:: Queue.task_done()
+
+ Indicate that a formerly enqueued task is complete. Used by queue consumer
+ threads. For each :meth:`get` used to fetch a task, a subsequent call to
+ :meth:`task_done` tells the queue that the processing on the task is complete.
+
+ If a :meth:`join` is currently blocking, it will resume when all items have been
+ processed (meaning that a :meth:`task_done` call was received for every item
+ that had been :meth:`put` into the queue).
+
+ Raises a :exc:`ValueError` if called more times than there were items placed in
+ the queue.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. method:: Queue.join()
+
+ Blocks until all items in the queue have been gotten and processed.
+
+ The count of unfinished tasks goes up whenever an item is added to the queue.
+ The count goes down whenever a consumer thread calls :meth:`task_done` to
+ indicate that the item was retrieved and all work on it is complete. When the
+ count of unfinished tasks drops to zero, :meth:`join` unblocks.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+Example of how to wait for enqueued tasks to be completed::
+
+ def worker():
+ while True:
+ item = q.get()
+ do_work(item)
+ q.task_done()
+
+ q = Queue()
+ for i in range(num_worker_threads):
+ t = Thread(target=worker)
+ t.daemon = True
+ t.start()
+
+ for item in source():
+ q.put(item)
+
+ q.join() # block until all tasks are done

+--------------
+
+This module performs quoted-printable transport encoding and decoding, as
+defined in :rfc:`1521`: "MIME (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions) Part One:
+Mechanisms for Specifying and Describing the Format of Internet Message Bodies".
+The quoted-printable encoding is designed for data where there are relatively

+sending a graphics file.
+
+.. function:: decode(input, output[,header])
+
+ Decode the contents of the *input* file and write the resulting decoded binary
+ data to the *output* file. *input* and *output* must either be file objects or
+ objects that mimic the file object interface. *input* will be read until
+ ``input.readline()`` returns an empty string. If the optional argument *header*
+ is present and true, underscore will be decoded as space. This is used to decode
+ "Q"-encoded headers as described in :rfc:`1522`: "MIME (Multipurpose Internet
+ Mail Extensions) Part Two: Message Header Extensions for Non-ASCII Text".
+
+
+.. function:: encode(input, output, quotetabs)
+
+ Encode the contents of the *input* file and write the resulting quoted-printable
+ data to the *output* file. *input* and *output* must either be file objects or
+ objects that mimic the file object interface. *input* will be read until
+ ``input.readline()`` returns an empty string. *quotetabs* is a flag which
+ controls whether to encode embedded spaces and tabs; when true it encodes such
+ embedded whitespace, and when false it leaves them unencoded. Note that spaces
+ and tabs appearing at the end of lines are always encoded, as per :rfc:`1521`.
+

+:mod:`random` --- Generate pseudo-random numbers
+================================================
+
+.. module:: random
+ :synopsis: Generate pseudo-random numbers with various common distributions.
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/random.py`
+
+--------------
+
+This module implements pseudo-random number generators for various
+distributions.
+
+For integers, uniform selection from a range. For sequences, uniform selection
+of a random element, a function to generate a random permutation of a list
+in-place, and a function for random sampling without replacement.
+
+On the real line, there are functions to compute uniform, normal (Gaussian),
+lognormal, negative exponential, gamma, and beta distributions. For generating
+distributions of angles, the von Mises distribution is available.
+
+Almost all module functions depend on the basic function :func:`random`, which
+generates a random float uniformly in the semi-open range [0.0, 1.0). Python
+uses the Mersenne Twister as the core generator. It produces 53-bit precision
+floats and has a period of 2\*\*19937-1. The underlying implementation in C is
+both fast and threadsafe. The Mersenne Twister is one of the most extensively
+tested random number generators in existence. However, being completely
+deterministic, it is not suitable for all purposes, and is completely unsuitable
+for cryptographic purposes.
+
+The functions supplied by this module are actually bound methods of a hidden
+instance of the :class:`random.Random` class. You can instantiate your own
+instances of :class:`Random` to get generators that don't share state. This is
+especially useful for multi-threaded programs, creating a different instance of
+:class:`Random` for each thread, and using the :meth:`jumpahead` method to make
+it likely that the generated sequences seen by each thread don't overlap.
+
+Class :class:`Random` can also be subclassed if you want to use a different
+basic generator of your own devising: in that case, override the :meth:`random`,
+:meth:`seed`, :meth:`getstate`, :meth:`setstate` and :meth:`jumpahead` methods.
+Optionally, a new generator can supply a :meth:`getrandbits` method --- this
+allows :meth:`randrange` to produce selections over an arbitrarily large range.
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.4
+ the :meth:`getrandbits` method.
+
+As an example of subclassing, the :mod:`random` module provides the
+:class:`WichmannHill` class that implements an alternative generator in pure
+Python. The class provides a backward compatible way to reproduce results from
+earlier versions of Python, which used the Wichmann-Hill algorithm as the core
+generator. Note that this Wichmann-Hill generator can no longer be recommended:
+its period is too short by contemporary standards, and the sequence generated is
+known to fail some stringent randomness tests. See the references below for a
+recent variant that repairs these flaws.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ MersenneTwister replaced Wichmann-Hill as the default generator.
+
+The :mod:`random` module also provides the :class:`SystemRandom` class which
+uses the system function :func:`os.urandom` to generate random numbers
+from sources provided by the operating system.
+
+Bookkeeping functions:
+
+
+.. function:: seed([x])
+
+ Initialize the basic random number generator. Optional argument *x* can be any
+ :term:`hashable` object. If *x* is omitted or ``None``, current system time is used;
+ current system time is also used to initialize the generator when the module is
+ first imported. If randomness sources are provided by the operating system,
+ they are used instead of the system time (see the :func:`os.urandom` function
+ for details on availability).
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ formerly, operating system resources were not used.
+
+.. function:: getstate()
+
+ Return an object capturing the current internal state of the generator. This
+ object can be passed to :func:`setstate` to restore the state.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.1
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ State values produced in Python 2.6 cannot be loaded into earlier versions.
+
+
+.. function:: setstate(state)
+
+ *state* should have been obtained from a previous call to :func:`getstate`, and
+ :func:`setstate` restores the internal state of the generator to what it was at
+ the time :func:`getstate` was called.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.1
+
+
+.. function:: jumpahead(n)
+
+ Change the internal state to one different from and likely far away from the
+ current state. *n* is a non-negative integer which is used to scramble the
+ current state vector. This is most useful in multi-threaded programs, in
+ conjunction with multiple instances of the :class:`Random` class:
+ :meth:`setstate` or :meth:`seed` can be used to force all instances into the
+ same internal state, and then :meth:`jumpahead` can be used to force the
+ instances' states far apart.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.1
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ Instead of jumping to a specific state, *n* steps ahead, ``jumpahead(n)``
+ jumps to another state likely to be separated by many steps.
+
+
+.. function:: getrandbits(k)
+
+ Returns a python :class:`long` int with *k* random bits. This method is supplied
+ with the MersenneTwister generator and some other generators may also provide it
+ as an optional part of the API. When available, :meth:`getrandbits` enables
+ :meth:`randrange` to handle arbitrarily large ranges.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+Functions for integers:
+
+
+.. function:: randrange(stop)
+ randrange(start, stop[, step])
+
+ Return a randomly selected element from ``range(start, stop, step)``. This is
+ equivalent to ``choice(range(start, stop, step))``, but doesn't actually build a
+ range object.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 1.5.2
+
+
+.. function:: randint(a, b)
+
+ Return a random integer *N* such that ``a <= N <= b``.
+
+Functions for sequences:
+
+
+.. function:: choice(seq)
+
+ Return a random element from the non-empty sequence *seq*. If *seq* is empty,
+ raises :exc:`IndexError`.
+
+
+.. function:: shuffle(x[, random])
+
+ Shuffle the sequence *x* in place. The optional argument *random* is a
+ 0-argument function returning a random float in [0.0, 1.0); by default, this is
+ the function :func:`random`.
+
+ Note that for even rather small ``len(x)``, the total number of permutations of
+ *x* is larger than the period of most random number generators; this implies
+ that most permutations of a long sequence can never be generated.
+
+
+.. function:: sample(population, k)
+
+ Return a *k* length list of unique elements chosen from the population sequence.
+ Used for random sampling without replacement.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+ Returns a new list containing elements from the population while leaving the
+ original population unchanged. The resulting list is in selection order so that
+ all sub-slices will also be valid random samples. This allows raffle winners
+ (the sample) to be partitioned into grand prize and second place winners (the
+ subslices).
+
+ Members of the population need not be :term:`hashable` or unique. If the population
+ contains repeats, then each occurrence is a possible selection in the sample.
+
+ To choose a sample from a range of integers, use an :func:`xrange` object as an
+ argument. This is especially fast and space efficient for sampling from a large
+ population: ``sample(xrange(10000000), 60)``.
+
+The following functions generate specific real-valued distributions. Function
+parameters are named after the corresponding variables in the distribution's
+equation, as used in common mathematical practice; most of these equations can
+be found in any statistics text.
+
+
+.. function:: random()
+
+ Return the next random floating point number in the range [0.0, 1.0).
+
+
+.. function:: uniform(a, b)
+
+ Return a random floating point number *N* such that ``a <= N <= b`` for
+ ``a <= b`` and ``b <= N <= a`` for ``b < a``.
+
+ The end-point value ``b`` may or may not be included in the range
+ depending on floating-point rounding in the equation ``a + (b-a) * random()``.
+
+
+.. function:: triangular(low, high, mode)
+
+ Return a random floating point number *N* such that ``low <= N <= high`` and
+ with the specified *mode* between those bounds. The *low* and *high* bounds
+ default to zero and one. The *mode* argument defaults to the midpoint
+ between the bounds, giving a symmetric distribution.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: betavariate(alpha, beta)
+
+ Beta distribution. Conditions on the parameters are ``alpha > 0`` and
+ ``beta > 0``. Returned values range between 0 and 1.
+
+
+.. function:: expovariate(lambd)
+
+ Exponential distribution. *lambd* is 1.0 divided by the desired
+ mean. It should be nonzero. (The parameter would be called
+ "lambda", but that is a reserved word in Python.) Returned values
+ range from 0 to positive infinity if *lambd* is positive, and from
+ negative infinity to 0 if *lambd* is negative.
+
+
+.. function:: gammavariate(alpha, beta)
+
+ Gamma distribution. (*Not* the gamma function!) Conditions on the
+ parameters are ``alpha > 0`` and ``beta > 0``.
+
+ The probability distribution function is::
+
+ x ** (alpha - 1) * math.exp(-x / beta)
+ pdf(x) = --------------------------------------
+ math.gamma(alpha) * beta ** alpha
+
+
+.. function:: gauss(mu, sigma)
+
+ Gaussian distribution. *mu* is the mean, and *sigma* is the standard
+ deviation. This is slightly faster than the :func:`normalvariate` function
+ defined below.
+
+
+.. function:: lognormvariate(mu, sigma)
+
+ Log normal distribution. If you take the natural logarithm of this
+ distribution, you'll get a normal distribution with mean *mu* and standard
+ deviation *sigma*. *mu* can have any value, and *sigma* must be greater than
+ zero.
+
+
+.. function:: normalvariate(mu, sigma)
+
+ Normal distribution. *mu* is the mean, and *sigma* is the standard deviation.
+
+
+.. function:: vonmisesvariate(mu, kappa)
+
+ *mu* is the mean angle, expressed in radians between 0 and 2\*\ *pi*, and *kappa*
+ is the concentration parameter, which must be greater than or equal to zero. If
+ *kappa* is equal to zero, this distribution reduces to a uniform random angle
+ over the range 0 to 2\*\ *pi*.
+
+
+.. function:: paretovariate(alpha)
+
+ Pareto distribution. *alpha* is the shape parameter.
+
+
+.. function:: weibullvariate(alpha, beta)
+
+ Weibull distribution. *alpha* is the scale parameter and *beta* is the shape
+ parameter.
+
+
+Alternative Generators:
+
+.. class:: WichmannHill([seed])
+
+ Class that implements the Wichmann-Hill algorithm as the core generator. Has all
+ of the same methods as :class:`Random` plus the :meth:`whseed` method described
+ below. Because this class is implemented in pure Python, it is not threadsafe
+ and may require locks between calls. The period of the generator is
+ 6,953,607,871,644 which is small enough to require care that two independent
+ random sequences do not overlap.
+
+
+.. function:: whseed([x])
+
+ This is obsolete, supplied for bit-level compatibility with versions of Python
+ prior to 2.1. See :func:`seed` for details. :func:`whseed` does not guarantee
+ that distinct integer arguments yield distinct internal states, and can yield no
+ more than about 2\*\*24 distinct internal states in all.
+
+
+.. class:: SystemRandom([seed])
+
+ Class that uses the :func:`os.urandom` function for generating random numbers
+ from sources provided by the operating system. Not available on all systems.
+ Does not rely on software state and sequences are not reproducible. Accordingly,
+ the :meth:`seed` and :meth:`jumpahead` methods have no effect and are ignored.
+ The :meth:`getstate` and :meth:`setstate` methods raise
+ :exc:`NotImplementedError` if called.

+:mod:`re` --- Regular expression operations
+===========================================
+
+.. module:: re
+ :synopsis: Regular expression operations.
+.. moduleauthor:: Fredrik Lundh <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Andrew M. Kuchling <[email protected]>
+
+
+This module provides regular expression matching operations similar to
+those found in Perl. Both patterns and strings to be searched can be
+Unicode strings as well as 8-bit strings.
+
+Regular expressions use the backslash character (``'\'``) to indicate
+special forms or to allow special characters to be used without invoking
+their special meaning. This collides with Python's usage of the same
+character for the same purpose in string literals; for example, to match
+a literal backslash, one might have to write ``'\\\\'`` as the pattern
+string, because the regular expression must be ``\\``, and each
+backslash must be expressed as ``\\`` inside a regular Python string
+literal.
+
+The solution is to use Python's raw string notation for regular expression
+patterns; backslashes are not handled in any special way in a string literal
+prefixed with ``'r'``. So ``r"\n"`` is a two-character string containing
+``'\'`` and ``'n'``, while ``"\n"`` is a one-character string containing a
+newline. Usually patterns will be expressed in Python code using this raw
+string notation.
+
+It is important to note that most regular expression operations are available as
+module-level functions and :class:`RegexObject` methods. The functions are
+shortcuts that don't require you to compile a regex object first, but miss some
+fine-tuning parameters.
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ Mastering Regular Expressions
+ Book on regular expressions by Jeffrey Friedl, published by O'Reilly. The
+ second edition of the book no longer covers Python at all, but the first
+ edition covered writing good regular expression patterns in great detail.
+
+
+.. _re-syntax:
+
+Regular Expression Syntax
+-------------------------
+
+A regular expression (or RE) specifies a set of strings that matches it; the
+functions in this module let you check if a particular string matches a given
+regular expression (or if a given regular expression matches a particular
+string, which comes down to the same thing).
+
+Regular expressions can be concatenated to form new regular expressions; if *A*
+and *B* are both regular expressions, then *AB* is also a regular expression.
+In general, if a string *p* matches *A* and another string *q* matches *B*, the
+string *pq* will match AB. This holds unless *A* or *B* contain low precedence
+operations; boundary conditions between *A* and *B*; or have numbered group
+references. Thus, complex expressions can easily be constructed from simpler
+primitive expressions like the ones described here. For details of the theory
+and implementation of regular expressions, consult the Friedl book referenced
+above, or almost any textbook about compiler construction.
+
+A brief explanation of the format of regular expressions follows. For further
+information and a gentler presentation, consult the :ref:`regex-howto`.
+
+Regular expressions can contain both special and ordinary characters. Most
+ordinary characters, like ``'A'``, ``'a'``, or ``'0'``, are the simplest regular
+expressions; they simply match themselves. You can concatenate ordinary
+characters, so ``last`` matches the string ``'last'``. (In the rest of this
+section, we'll write RE's in ``this special style``, usually without quotes, and
+strings to be matched ``'in single quotes'``.)
+
+Some characters, like ``'|'`` or ``'('``, are special. Special
+characters either stand for classes of ordinary characters, or affect
+how the regular expressions around them are interpreted. Regular
+expression pattern strings may not contain null bytes, but can specify
+the null byte using the ``\number`` notation, e.g., ``'\x00'``.
+
+
+The special characters are:
+
+``'.'``
+ (Dot.) In the default mode, this matches any character except a newline. If
+ the :const:`DOTALL` flag has been specified, this matches any character
+ including a newline.
+
+``'^'``
+ (Caret.) Matches the start of the string, and in :const:`MULTILINE` mode also
+ matches immediately after each newline.
+
+``'$'``
+ Matches the end of the string or just before the newline at the end of the
+ string, and in :const:`MULTILINE` mode also matches before a newline. ``foo``
+ matches both 'foo' and 'foobar', while the regular expression ``foo$`` matches
+ only 'foo'. More interestingly, searching for ``foo.$`` in ``'foo1\nfoo2\n'``
+ matches 'foo2' normally, but 'foo1' in :const:`MULTILINE` mode; searching for
+ a single ``$`` in ``'foo\n'`` will find two (empty) matches: one just before
+ the newline, and one at the end of the string.
+
+``'*'``
+ Causes the resulting RE to match 0 or more repetitions of the preceding RE, as
+ many repetitions as are possible. ``ab*`` will match 'a', 'ab', or 'a' followed
+ by any number of 'b's.
+
+``'+'``
+ Causes the resulting RE to match 1 or more repetitions of the preceding RE.
+ ``ab+`` will match 'a' followed by any non-zero number of 'b's; it will not
+ match just 'a'.
+
+``'?'``
+ Causes the resulting RE to match 0 or 1 repetitions of the preceding RE.
+ ``ab?`` will match either 'a' or 'ab'.
+
+``*?``, ``+?``, ``??``
+ The ``'*'``, ``'+'``, and ``'?'`` qualifiers are all :dfn:`greedy`; they match
+ as much text as possible. Sometimes this behaviour isn't desired; if the RE
+ ``<.*>`` is matched against ``'<H1>title</H1>'``, it will match the entire
+ string, and not just ``'<H1>'``. Adding ``'?'`` after the qualifier makes it
+ perform the match in :dfn:`non-greedy` or :dfn:`minimal` fashion; as *few*
+ characters as possible will be matched. Using ``.*?`` in the previous
+ expression will match only ``'<H1>'``.
+
+``{m}``
+ Specifies that exactly *m* copies of the previous RE should be matched; fewer
+ matches cause the entire RE not to match. For example, ``a{6}`` will match
+ exactly six ``'a'`` characters, but not five.
+
+``{m,n}``
+ Causes the resulting RE to match from *m* to *n* repetitions of the preceding
+ RE, attempting to match as many repetitions as possible. For example,
+ ``a{3,5}`` will match from 3 to 5 ``'a'`` characters. Omitting *m* specifies a
+ lower bound of zero, and omitting *n* specifies an infinite upper bound. As an
+ example, ``a{4,}b`` will match ``aaaab`` or a thousand ``'a'`` characters
+ followed by a ``b``, but not ``aaab``. The comma may not be omitted or the
+ modifier would be confused with the previously described form.
+
+``{m,n}?``
+ Causes the resulting RE to match from *m* to *n* repetitions of the preceding
+ RE, attempting to match as *few* repetitions as possible. This is the
+ non-greedy version of the previous qualifier. For example, on the
+ 6-character string ``'aaaaaa'``, ``a{3,5}`` will match 5 ``'a'`` characters,
+ while ``a{3,5}?`` will only match 3 characters.
+
+``'\'``
+ Either escapes special characters (permitting you to match characters like
+ ``'*'``, ``'?'``, and so forth), or signals a special sequence; special
+ sequences are discussed below.
+
+ If you're not using a raw string to express the pattern, remember that Python
+ also uses the backslash as an escape sequence in string literals; if the escape
+ sequence isn't recognized by Python's parser, the backslash and subsequent
+ character are included in the resulting string. However, if Python would
+ recognize the resulting sequence, the backslash should be repeated twice. This
+ is complicated and hard to understand, so it's highly recommended that you use
+ raw strings for all but the simplest expressions.
+
+``[]``
+ Used to indicate a set of characters. In a set:
+
+ * Characters can be listed individually, e.g. ``[amk]`` will match ``'a'``,
+ ``'m'``, or ``'k'``.
+
+ * Ranges of characters can be indicated by giving two characters and separating
+ them by a ``'-'``, for example ``[a-z]`` will match any lowercase ASCII letter,
+ ``[0-5][0-9]`` will match all the two-digits numbers from ``00`` to ``59``, and
+ ``[0-9A-Fa-f]`` will match any hexadecimal digit. If ``-`` is escaped (e.g.
+ ``[a\-z]``) or if it's placed as the first or last character (e.g. ``[a-]``),
+ it will match a literal ``'-'``.
+
+ * Special characters lose their special meaning inside sets. For example,
+ ``[(+*)]`` will match any of the literal characters ``'('``, ``'+'``,
+ ``'*'``, or ``')'``.
+
+ * Character classes such as ``\w`` or ``\S`` (defined below) are also accepted
+ inside a set, although the characters they match depends on whether
+ :const:`LOCALE` or :const:`UNICODE` mode is in force.
+
+ * Characters that are not within a range can be matched by :dfn:`complementing`
+ the set. If the first character of the set is ``'^'``, all the characters
+ that are *not* in the set will be matched. For example, ``[^5]`` will match
+ any character except ``'5'``, and ``[^^]`` will match any character except
+ ``'^'``. ``^`` has no special meaning if it's not the first character in
+ the set.
+
+ * To match a literal ``']'`` inside a set, precede it with a backslash, or
+ place it at the beginning of the set. For example, both ``[()[\]{}]`` and
+ ``[]()[{}]`` will both match a parenthesis.
+
+``'|'``
+ ``A|B``, where A and B can be arbitrary REs, creates a regular expression that
+ will match either A or B. An arbitrary number of REs can be separated by the
+ ``'|'`` in this way. This can be used inside groups (see below) as well. As
+ the target string is scanned, REs separated by ``'|'`` are tried from left to
+ right. When one pattern completely matches, that branch is accepted. This means
+ that once ``A`` matches, ``B`` will not be tested further, even if it would
+ produce a longer overall match. In other words, the ``'|'`` operator is never
+ greedy. To match a literal ``'|'``, use ``\|``, or enclose it inside a
+ character class, as in ``[|]``.
+
+``(...)``
+ Matches whatever regular expression is inside the parentheses, and indicates the
+ start and end of a group; the contents of a group can be retrieved after a match
+ has been performed, and can be matched later in the string with the ``\number``
+ special sequence, described below. To match the literals ``'('`` or ``')'``,
+ use ``\(`` or ``\)``, or enclose them inside a character class: ``[(] [)]``.
+
+``(?...)``
+ This is an extension notation (a ``'?'`` following a ``'('`` is not meaningful
+ otherwise). The first character after the ``'?'`` determines what the meaning
+ and further syntax of the construct is. Extensions usually do not create a new
+ group; ``(?P<name>...)`` is the only exception to this rule. Following are the
+ currently supported extensions.
+
+``(?iLmsux)``
+ (One or more letters from the set ``'i'``, ``'L'``, ``'m'``, ``'s'``,
+ ``'u'``, ``'x'``.) The group matches the empty string; the letters
+ set the corresponding flags: :const:`re.I` (ignore case),
+ :const:`re.L` (locale dependent), :const:`re.M` (multi-line),
+ :const:`re.S` (dot matches all), :const:`re.U` (Unicode dependent),
+ and :const:`re.X` (verbose), for the entire regular expression. (The
+ flags are described in :ref:`contents-of-module-re`.) This
+ is useful if you wish to include the flags as part of the regular
+ expression, instead of passing a *flag* argument to the
+ :func:`re.compile` function.
+
+ Note that the ``(?x)`` flag changes how the expression is parsed. It should be
+ used first in the expression string, or after one or more whitespace characters.
+ If there are non-whitespace characters before the flag, the results are
+ undefined.
+
+``(?:...)``
+ A non-capturing version of regular parentheses. Matches whatever regular
+ expression is inside the parentheses, but the substring matched by the group
+ *cannot* be retrieved after performing a match or referenced later in the
+ pattern.
+
+``(?P<name>...)``
+ Similar to regular parentheses, but the substring matched by the group is
+ accessible within the rest of the regular expression via the symbolic group
+ name *name*. Group names must be valid Python identifiers, and each group
+ name must be defined only once within a regular expression. A symbolic group
+ is also a numbered group, just as if the group were not named. So the group
+ named ``id`` in the example below can also be referenced as the numbered group
+ ``1``.
+
+ For example, if the pattern is ``(?P<id>[a-zA-Z_]\w*)``, the group can be
+ referenced by its name in arguments to methods of match objects, such as
+ ``m.group('id')`` or ``m.end('id')``, and also by name in the regular
+ expression itself (using ``(?P=id)``) and replacement text given to
+ ``.sub()`` (using ``\g<id>``).
+
+``(?P=name)``
+ Matches whatever text was matched by the earlier group named *name*.
+
+``(?#...)``
+ A comment; the contents of the parentheses are simply ignored.
+
+``(?=...)``
+ Matches if ``...`` matches next, but doesn't consume any of the string. This is
+ called a lookahead assertion. For example, ``Isaac (?=Asimov)`` will match
+ ``'Isaac '`` only if it's followed by ``'Asimov'``.
+
+``(?!...)``
+ Matches if ``...`` doesn't match next. This is a negative lookahead assertion.
+ For example, ``Isaac (?!Asimov)`` will match ``'Isaac '`` only if it's *not*
+ followed by ``'Asimov'``.
+
+``(?<=...)``
+ Matches if the current position in the string is preceded by a match for ``...``
+ that ends at the current position. This is called a :dfn:`positive lookbehind
+ assertion`. ``(?<=abc)def`` will find a match in ``abcdef``, since the
+ lookbehind will back up 3 characters and check if the contained pattern matches.
+ The contained pattern must only match strings of some fixed length, meaning that
+ ``abc`` or ``a|b`` are allowed, but ``a*`` and ``a{3,4}`` are not. Note that
+ patterns which start with positive lookbehind assertions will not match at the
+ beginning of the string being searched; you will most likely want to use the
+ :func:`search` function rather than the :func:`match` function:
+
+ >>> import re
+ >>> m = re.search('(?<=abc)def', 'abcdef')
+ >>> m.group(0)
+ 'def'
+
+ This example looks for a word following a hyphen:
+
+ >>> m = re.search('(?<=-)\w+', 'spam-egg')
+ >>> m.group(0)
+ 'egg'
+
+``(?<!...)``
+ Matches if the current position in the string is not preceded by a match for
+ ``...``. This is called a :dfn:`negative lookbehind assertion`. Similar to
+ positive lookbehind assertions, the contained pattern must only match strings of
+ some fixed length. Patterns which start with negative lookbehind assertions may
+ match at the beginning of the string being searched.
+
+``(?(id/name)yes-pattern|no-pattern)``
+ Will try to match with ``yes-pattern`` if the group with given *id* or *name*
+ exists, and with ``no-pattern`` if it doesn't. ``no-pattern`` is optional and
+ can be omitted. For example, ``(<)?(\w+@\w+(?:\.\w+)+)(?(1)>)`` is a poor email
+ matching pattern, which will match with ``'<[email protected]>'`` as well as
+ ``'[email protected]'``, but not with ``'<[email protected]'``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+The special sequences consist of ``'\'`` and a character from the list below.
+If the ordinary character is not on the list, then the resulting RE will match
+the second character. For example, ``\$`` matches the character ``'$'``.
+
+``\number``
+ Matches the contents of the group of the same number. Groups are numbered
+ starting from 1. For example, ``(.+) \1`` matches ``'the the'`` or ``'55 55'``,
+ but not ``'the end'`` (note the space after the group). This special sequence
+ can only be used to match one of the first 99 groups. If the first digit of
+ *number* is 0, or *number* is 3 octal digits long, it will not be interpreted as
+ a group match, but as the character with octal value *number*. Inside the
+ ``'['`` and ``']'`` of a character class, all numeric escapes are treated as
+ characters.
+
+``\A``
+ Matches only at the start of the string.
+
+``\b``
+ Matches the empty string, but only at the beginning or end of a word. A word is
+ defined as a sequence of alphanumeric or underscore characters, so the end of a
+ word is indicated by whitespace or a non-alphanumeric, non-underscore character.
+ Note that formally, ``\b`` is defined as the boundary between a ``\w`` and
+ a ``\W`` character (or vice versa), or between ``\w`` and the beginning/end
+ of the string, so the precise set of characters deemed to be alphanumeric
+ depends on the values of the ``UNICODE`` and ``LOCALE`` flags.
+ For example, ``r'\bfoo\b'`` matches ``'foo'``, ``'foo.'``, ``'(foo)'``,
+ ``'bar foo baz'`` but not ``'foobar'`` or ``'foo3'``.
+ Inside a character range, ``\b`` represents the backspace character, for compatibility with Python's string literals.
+
+``\B``
+ Matches the empty string, but only when it is *not* at the beginning or end of a
+ word. This means that ``r'py\B'`` matches ``'python'``, ``'py3'``, ``'py2'``,
+ but not ``'py'``, ``'py.'``, or ``'py!'``.
+ ``\B`` is just the opposite of ``\b``, so is also subject to the settings
+ of ``LOCALE`` and ``UNICODE``.
+
+``\d``
+ When the :const:`UNICODE` flag is not specified, matches any decimal digit; this
+ is equivalent to the set ``[0-9]``. With :const:`UNICODE`, it will match
+ whatever is classified as a decimal digit in the Unicode character properties
+ database.
+
+``\D``
+ When the :const:`UNICODE` flag is not specified, matches any non-digit
+ character; this is equivalent to the set ``[^0-9]``. With :const:`UNICODE`, it
+ will match anything other than character marked as digits in the Unicode
+ character properties database.
+
+``\s``
+ When the :const:`UNICODE` flag is not specified, it matches any whitespace
+ character, this is equivalent to the set ``[ \t\n\r\f\v]``. The
+ :const:`LOCALE` flag has no extra effect on matching of the space.
+ If :const:`UNICODE` is set, this will match the characters ``[ \t\n\r\f\v]``
+ plus whatever is classified as space in the Unicode character properties
+ database.
+
+``\S``
+ When the :const:`UNICODE` flags is not specified, matches any non-whitespace
+ character; this is equivalent to the set ``[^ \t\n\r\f\v]`` The
+ :const:`LOCALE` flag has no extra effect on non-whitespace match. If
+ :const:`UNICODE` is set, then any character not marked as space in the
+ Unicode character properties database is matched.
+
+
+``\w``
+ When the :const:`LOCALE` and :const:`UNICODE` flags are not specified, matches
+ any alphanumeric character and the underscore; this is equivalent to the set
+ ``[a-zA-Z0-9_]``. With :const:`LOCALE`, it will match the set ``[0-9_]`` plus
+ whatever characters are defined as alphanumeric for the current locale. If
+ :const:`UNICODE` is set, this will match the characters ``[0-9_]`` plus whatever
+ is classified as alphanumeric in the Unicode character properties database.
+
+``\W``
+ When the :const:`LOCALE` and :const:`UNICODE` flags are not specified, matches
+ any non-alphanumeric character; this is equivalent to the set ``[^a-zA-Z0-9_]``.
+ With :const:`LOCALE`, it will match any character not in the set ``[0-9_]``, and
+ not defined as alphanumeric for the current locale. If :const:`UNICODE` is set,
+ this will match anything other than ``[0-9_]`` plus characters classied as
+ not alphanumeric in the Unicode character properties database.
+
+``\Z``
+ Matches only at the end of the string.
+
+If both :const:`LOCALE` and :const:`UNICODE` flags are included for a
+particular sequence, then :const:`LOCALE` flag takes effect first followed by
+the :const:`UNICODE`.
+
+Most of the standard escapes supported by Python string literals are also
+accepted by the regular expression parser::
+
+ \a \b \f \n
+ \r \t \v \x
+ \\
+
+(Note that ``\b`` is used to represent word boundaries, and means "backspace"
+only inside character classes.)
+
+Octal escapes are included in a limited form: If the first digit is a 0, or if
+there are three octal digits, it is considered an octal escape. Otherwise, it is
+a group reference. As for string literals, octal escapes are always at most
+three digits in length.
+
+
+.. _contents-of-module-re:
+
+Module Contents
+---------------
+
+The module defines several functions, constants, and an exception. Some of the
+functions are simplified versions of the full featured methods for compiled
+regular expressions. Most non-trivial applications always use the compiled
+form.
+
+
+.. function:: compile(pattern, flags=0)
+
+ Compile a regular expression pattern into a regular expression object, which
+ can be used for matching using its :func:`match` and :func:`search` methods,
+ described below.
+
+ The expression's behaviour can be modified by specifying a *flags* value.
+ Values can be any of the following variables, combined using bitwise OR (the
+ ``|`` operator).
+
+ The sequence ::
+
+ prog = re.compile(pattern)
+ result = prog.match(string)
+
+ is equivalent to ::
+
+ result = re.match(pattern, string)
+
+ but using :func:`re.compile` and saving the resulting regular expression
+ object for reuse is more efficient when the expression will be used several
+ times in a single program.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ The compiled versions of the most recent patterns passed to
+ :func:`re.match`, :func:`re.search` or :func:`re.compile` are cached, so
+ programs that use only a few regular expressions at a time needn't worry
+ about compiling regular expressions.
+
+
+.. data:: DEBUG
+
+ Display debug information about compiled expression.
+
+
+.. data:: I
+ IGNORECASE
+
+ Perform case-insensitive matching; expressions like ``[A-Z]`` will match
+ lowercase letters, too. This is not affected by the current locale.
+
+
+.. data:: L
+ LOCALE
+
+ Make ``\w``, ``\W``, ``\b``, ``\B``, ``\s`` and ``\S`` dependent on the
+ current locale.
+
+
+.. data:: M
+ MULTILINE
+
+ When specified, the pattern character ``'^'`` matches at the beginning of the
+ string and at the beginning of each line (immediately following each newline);
+ and the pattern character ``'$'`` matches at the end of the string and at the
+ end of each line (immediately preceding each newline). By default, ``'^'``
+ matches only at the beginning of the string, and ``'$'`` only at the end of the
+ string and immediately before the newline (if any) at the end of the string.
+
+
+.. data:: S
+ DOTALL
+
+ Make the ``'.'`` special character match any character at all, including a
+ newline; without this flag, ``'.'`` will match anything *except* a newline.
+
+
+.. data:: U
+ UNICODE
+
+ Make ``\w``, ``\W``, ``\b``, ``\B``, ``\d``, ``\D``, ``\s`` and ``\S`` dependent
+ on the Unicode character properties database.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+
+.. data:: X
+ VERBOSE
+
+ This flag allows you to write regular expressions that look nicer. Whitespace
+ within the pattern is ignored, except when in a character class or preceded by
+ an unescaped backslash, and, when a line contains a ``'#'`` neither in a
+ character class or preceded by an unescaped backslash, all characters from the
+ leftmost such ``'#'`` through the end of the line are ignored.
+
+ That means that the two following regular expression objects that match a
+ decimal number are functionally equal::
+
+ a = re.compile(r"""\d + # the integral part
+ \. # the decimal point
+ \d * # some fractional digits""", re.X)
+ b = re.compile(r"\d+\.\d*")
+
+
+.. function:: search(pattern, string, flags=0)
+
+ Scan through *string* looking for a location where the regular expression
+ *pattern* produces a match, and return a corresponding :class:`MatchObject`
+ instance. Return ``None`` if no position in the string matches the pattern; note
+ that this is different from finding a zero-length match at some point in the
+ string.
+
+
+.. function:: match(pattern, string, flags=0)
+
+ If zero or more characters at the beginning of *string* match the regular
+ expression *pattern*, return a corresponding :class:`MatchObject` instance.
+ Return ``None`` if the string does not match the pattern; note that this is
+ different from a zero-length match.
+
+ Note that even in :const:`MULTILINE` mode, :func:`re.match` will only match
+ at the beginning of the string and not at the beginning of each line.
+
+ If you want to locate a match anywhere in *string*, use :func:`search`
+ instead (see also :ref:`search-vs-match`).
+
+
+.. function:: split(pattern, string, maxsplit=0, flags=0)
+
+ Split *string* by the occurrences of *pattern*. If capturing parentheses are
+ used in *pattern*, then the text of all groups in the pattern are also returned
+ as part of the resulting list. If *maxsplit* is nonzero, at most *maxsplit*
+ splits occur, and the remainder of the string is returned as the final element
+ of the list. (Incompatibility note: in the original Python 1.5 release,
+ *maxsplit* was ignored. This has been fixed in later releases.)
+
+ >>> re.split('\W+', 'Words, words, words.')
+ ['Words', 'words', 'words', '']
+ >>> re.split('(\W+)', 'Words, words, words.')
+ ['Words', ', ', 'words', ', ', 'words', '.', '']
+ >>> re.split('\W+', 'Words, words, words.', 1)
+ ['Words', 'words, words.']
+ >>> re.split('[a-f]+', '0a3B9', flags=re.IGNORECASE)
+ ['0', '3', '9']
+
+ If there are capturing groups in the separator and it matches at the start of
+ the string, the result will start with an empty string. The same holds for
+ the end of the string:
+
+ >>> re.split('(\W+)', '...words, words...')
+ ['', '...', 'words', ', ', 'words', '...', '']
+
+ That way, separator components are always found at the same relative
+ indices within the result list (e.g., if there's one capturing group
+ in the separator, the 0th, the 2nd and so forth).
+
+ Note that *split* will never split a string on an empty pattern match.
+ For example:
+
+ >>> re.split('x*', 'foo')
+ ['foo']
+ >>> re.split("(?m)^$", "foo\n\nbar\n")
+ ['foo\n\nbar\n']
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ Added the optional flags argument.
+
+
+.. function:: findall(pattern, string, flags=0)
+
+ Return all non-overlapping matches of *pattern* in *string*, as a list of
+ strings. The *string* is scanned left-to-right, and matches are returned in
+ the order found. If one or more groups are present in the pattern, return a
+ list of groups; this will be a list of tuples if the pattern has more than
+ one group. Empty matches are included in the result unless they touch the
+ beginning of another match.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 1.5.2
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ Added the optional flags argument.
+
+
+.. function:: finditer(pattern, string, flags=0)
+
+ Return an :term:`iterator` yielding :class:`MatchObject` instances over all
+ non-overlapping matches for the RE *pattern* in *string*. The *string* is
+ scanned left-to-right, and matches are returned in the order found. Empty
+ matches are included in the result unless they touch the beginning of another
+ match.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ Added the optional flags argument.
+
+
+.. function:: sub(pattern, repl, string, count=0, flags=0)
+
+ Return the string obtained by replacing the leftmost non-overlapping occurrences
+ of *pattern* in *string* by the replacement *repl*. If the pattern isn't found,
+ *string* is returned unchanged. *repl* can be a string or a function; if it is
+ a string, any backslash escapes in it are processed. That is, ``\n`` is
+ converted to a single newline character, ``\r`` is converted to a carriage return, and
+ so forth. Unknown escapes such as ``\j`` are left alone. Backreferences, such
+ as ``\6``, are replaced with the substring matched by group 6 in the pattern.
+ For example:
+
+ >>> re.sub(r'def\s+([a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z_0-9]*)\s*\(\s*\):',
+ ... r'static PyObject*\npy_\1(void)\n{',
+ ... 'def myfunc():')
+ 'static PyObject*\npy_myfunc(void)\n{'
+
+ If *repl* is a function, it is called for every non-overlapping occurrence of
+ *pattern*. The function takes a single match object argument, and returns the
+ replacement string. For example:
+
+ >>> def dashrepl(matchobj):
+ ... if matchobj.group(0) == '-': return ' '
+ ... else: return '-'
+ >>> re.sub('-{1,2}', dashrepl, 'pro----gram-files')
+ 'pro--gram files'
+ >>> re.sub(r'\sAND\s', ' & ', 'Baked Beans And Spam', flags=re.IGNORECASE)
+ 'Baked Beans & Spam'
+
+ The pattern may be a string or an RE object.
+
+ The optional argument *count* is the maximum number of pattern occurrences to be
+ replaced; *count* must be a non-negative integer. If omitted or zero, all
+ occurrences will be replaced. Empty matches for the pattern are replaced only
+ when not adjacent to a previous match, so ``sub('x*', '-', 'abc')`` returns
+ ``'-a-b-c-'``.
+
+ In addition to character escapes and backreferences as described above,
+ ``\g<name>`` will use the substring matched by the group named ``name``, as
+ defined by the ``(?P<name>...)`` syntax. ``\g<number>`` uses the corresponding
+ group number; ``\g<2>`` is therefore equivalent to ``\2``, but isn't ambiguous
+ in a replacement such as ``\g<2>0``. ``\20`` would be interpreted as a
+ reference to group 20, not a reference to group 2 followed by the literal
+ character ``'0'``. The backreference ``\g<0>`` substitutes in the entire
+ substring matched by the RE.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ Added the optional flags argument.
+
+
+.. function:: subn(pattern, repl, string, count=0, flags=0)
+
+ Perform the same operation as :func:`sub`, but return a tuple ``(new_string,
+ number_of_subs_made)``.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ Added the optional flags argument.
+
+
+.. function:: escape(string)
+
+ Return *string* with all non-alphanumerics backslashed; this is useful if you
+ want to match an arbitrary literal string that may have regular expression
+ metacharacters in it.
+
+
+.. function:: purge()
+
+ Clear the regular expression cache.
+
+
+.. exception:: error
+
+ Exception raised when a string passed to one of the functions here is not a
+ valid regular expression (for example, it might contain unmatched parentheses)
+ or when some other error occurs during compilation or matching. It is never an
+ error if a string contains no match for a pattern.
+
+
+.. _re-objects:
+
+Regular Expression Objects
+--------------------------
+
+.. class:: RegexObject
+
+ The :class:`RegexObject` class supports the following methods and attributes:
+
+ .. method:: RegexObject.search(string[, pos[, endpos]])
+
+ Scan through *string* looking for a location where this regular expression
+ produces a match, and return a corresponding :class:`MatchObject` instance.
+ Return ``None`` if no position in the string matches the pattern; note that this
+ is different from finding a zero-length match at some point in the string.
+
+ The optional second parameter *pos* gives an index in the string where the
+ search is to start; it defaults to ``0``. This is not completely equivalent to
+ slicing the string; the ``'^'`` pattern character matches at the real beginning
+ of the string and at positions just after a newline, but not necessarily at the
+ index where the search is to start.
+
+ The optional parameter *endpos* limits how far the string will be searched; it
+ will be as if the string is *endpos* characters long, so only the characters
+ from *pos* to ``endpos - 1`` will be searched for a match. If *endpos* is less
+ than *pos*, no match will be found, otherwise, if *rx* is a compiled regular
+ expression object, ``rx.search(string, 0, 50)`` is equivalent to
+ ``rx.search(string[:50], 0)``.
+
+ >>> pattern = re.compile("d")
+ >>> pattern.search("dog") # Match at index 0
+ <_sre.SRE_Match object at ...>
+ >>> pattern.search("dog", 1) # No match; search doesn't include the "d"
+
+
+ .. method:: RegexObject.match(string[, pos[, endpos]])
+
+ If zero or more characters at the *beginning* of *string* match this regular
+ expression, return a corresponding :class:`MatchObject` instance. Return
+ ``None`` if the string does not match the pattern; note that this is different
+ from a zero-length match.
+
+ The optional *pos* and *endpos* parameters have the same meaning as for the
+ :meth:`~RegexObject.search` method.
+
+ >>> pattern = re.compile("o")
+ >>> pattern.match("dog") # No match as "o" is not at the start of "dog".
+ >>> pattern.match("dog", 1) # Match as "o" is the 2nd character of "dog".
+ <_sre.SRE_Match object at ...>
+
+ If you want to locate a match anywhere in *string*, use
+ :meth:`~RegexObject.search` instead (see also :ref:`search-vs-match`).
+
+
+ .. method:: RegexObject.split(string, maxsplit=0)
+
+ Identical to the :func:`split` function, using the compiled pattern.
+
+
+ .. method:: RegexObject.findall(string[, pos[, endpos]])
+
+ Similar to the :func:`findall` function, using the compiled pattern, but
+ also accepts optional *pos* and *endpos* parameters that limit the search
+ region like for :meth:`match`.
+
+
+ .. method:: RegexObject.finditer(string[, pos[, endpos]])
+
+ Similar to the :func:`finditer` function, using the compiled pattern, but
+ also accepts optional *pos* and *endpos* parameters that limit the search
+ region like for :meth:`match`.
+
+
+ .. method:: RegexObject.sub(repl, string, count=0)
+
+ Identical to the :func:`sub` function, using the compiled pattern.
+
+
+ .. method:: RegexObject.subn(repl, string, count=0)
+
+ Identical to the :func:`subn` function, using the compiled pattern.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: RegexObject.flags
+
+ The regex matching flags. This is a combination of the flags given to
+ :func:`.compile` and any ``(?...)`` inline flags in the pattern.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: RegexObject.groups
+
+ The number of capturing groups in the pattern.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: RegexObject.groupindex
+
+ A dictionary mapping any symbolic group names defined by ``(?P<id>)`` to group
+ numbers. The dictionary is empty if no symbolic groups were used in the
+ pattern.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: RegexObject.pattern
+
+ The pattern string from which the RE object was compiled.
+
+
+.. _match-objects:
+
+Match Objects
+-------------
+
+.. class:: MatchObject
+
+ Match objects always have a boolean value of ``True``.
+ Since :meth:`~regex.match` and :meth:`~regex.search` return ``None``
+ when there is no match, you can test whether there was a match with a simple
+ ``if`` statement::
+
+ match = re.search(pattern, string)
+ if match:
+ process(match)
+
+ Match objects support the following methods and attributes:
+
+
+ .. method:: MatchObject.expand(template)
+
+ Return the string obtained by doing backslash substitution on the template
+ string *template*, as done by the :meth:`~RegexObject.sub` method. Escapes
+ such as ``\n`` are converted to the appropriate characters, and numeric
+ backreferences (``\1``, ``\2``) and named backreferences (``\g<1>``,
+ ``\g<name>``) are replaced by the contents of the corresponding group.
+
+
+ .. method:: MatchObject.group([group1, ...])
+
+ Returns one or more subgroups of the match. If there is a single argument, the
+ result is a single string; if there are multiple arguments, the result is a
+ tuple with one item per argument. Without arguments, *group1* defaults to zero
+ (the whole match is returned). If a *groupN* argument is zero, the corresponding
+ return value is the entire matching string; if it is in the inclusive range
+ [1..99], it is the string matching the corresponding parenthesized group. If a
+ group number is negative or larger than the number of groups defined in the
+ pattern, an :exc:`IndexError` exception is raised. If a group is contained in a
+ part of the pattern that did not match, the corresponding result is ``None``.
+ If a group is contained in a part of the pattern that matched multiple times,
+ the last match is returned.
+
+ >>> m = re.match(r"(\w+) (\w+)", "Isaac Newton, physicist")
+ >>> m.group(0) # The entire match
+ 'Isaac Newton'
+ >>> m.group(1) # The first parenthesized subgroup.
+ 'Isaac'
+ >>> m.group(2) # The second parenthesized subgroup.
+ 'Newton'
+ >>> m.group(1, 2) # Multiple arguments give us a tuple.
+ ('Isaac', 'Newton')
+
+ If the regular expression uses the ``(?P<name>...)`` syntax, the *groupN*
+ arguments may also be strings identifying groups by their group name. If a
+ string argument is not used as a group name in the pattern, an :exc:`IndexError`
+ exception is raised.
+
+ A moderately complicated example:
+
+ >>> m = re.match(r"(?P<first_name>\w+) (?P<last_name>\w+)", "Malcolm Reynolds")
+ >>> m.group('first_name')
+ 'Malcolm'
+ >>> m.group('last_name')
+ 'Reynolds'
+
+ Named groups can also be referred to by their index:
+
+ >>> m.group(1)
+ 'Malcolm'
+ >>> m.group(2)
+ 'Reynolds'
+
+ If a group matches multiple times, only the last match is accessible:
+
+ >>> m = re.match(r"(..)+", "a1b2c3") # Matches 3 times.
+ >>> m.group(1) # Returns only the last match.
+ 'c3'
+
+
+ .. method:: MatchObject.groups([default])
+
+ Return a tuple containing all the subgroups of the match, from 1 up to however
+ many groups are in the pattern. The *default* argument is used for groups that
+ did not participate in the match; it defaults to ``None``. (Incompatibility
+ note: in the original Python 1.5 release, if the tuple was one element long, a
+ string would be returned instead. In later versions (from 1.5.1 on), a
+ singleton tuple is returned in such cases.)
+
+ For example:
+
+ >>> m = re.match(r"(\d+)\.(\d+)", "24.1632")
+ >>> m.groups()
+ ('24', '1632')
+
+ If we make the decimal place and everything after it optional, not all groups
+ might participate in the match. These groups will default to ``None`` unless
+ the *default* argument is given:
+
+ >>> m = re.match(r"(\d+)\.?(\d+)?", "24")
+ >>> m.groups() # Second group defaults to None.
+ ('24', None)
+ >>> m.groups('0') # Now, the second group defaults to '0'.
+ ('24', '0')
+
+
+ .. method:: MatchObject.groupdict([default])
+
+ Return a dictionary containing all the *named* subgroups of the match, keyed by
+ the subgroup name. The *default* argument is used for groups that did not
+ participate in the match; it defaults to ``None``. For example:
+
+ >>> m = re.match(r"(?P<first_name>\w+) (?P<last_name>\w+)", "Malcolm Reynolds")
+ >>> m.groupdict()
+ {'first_name': 'Malcolm', 'last_name': 'Reynolds'}
+
+
+ .. method:: MatchObject.start([group])
+ MatchObject.end([group])
+
+ Return the indices of the start and end of the substring matched by *group*;
+ *group* defaults to zero (meaning the whole matched substring). Return ``-1`` if
+ *group* exists but did not contribute to the match. For a match object *m*, and
+ a group *g* that did contribute to the match, the substring matched by group *g*
+ (equivalent to ``m.group(g)``) is ::
+
+ m.string[m.start(g):m.end(g)]
+
+ Note that ``m.start(group)`` will equal ``m.end(group)`` if *group* matched a
+ null string. For example, after ``m = re.search('b(c?)', 'cba')``,
+ ``m.start(0)`` is 1, ``m.end(0)`` is 2, ``m.start(1)`` and ``m.end(1)`` are both
+ 2, and ``m.start(2)`` raises an :exc:`IndexError` exception.
+
+ An example that will remove *remove_this* from email addresses:
+
+ >>> email = "tony@tiremove_thisger.net"
+ >>> m = re.search("remove_this", email)
+ >>> email[:m.start()] + email[m.end():]
+ '[email protected]'
+
+
+ .. method:: MatchObject.span([group])
+
+ For :class:`MatchObject` *m*, return the 2-tuple ``(m.start(group),
+ m.end(group))``. Note that if *group* did not contribute to the match, this is
+ ``(-1, -1)``. *group* defaults to zero, the entire match.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: MatchObject.pos
+
+ The value of *pos* which was passed to the :meth:`~RegexObject.search` or
+ :meth:`~RegexObject.match` method of the :class:`RegexObject`. This is the
+ index into the string at which the RE engine started looking for a match.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: MatchObject.endpos
+
+ The value of *endpos* which was passed to the :meth:`~RegexObject.search` or
+ :meth:`~RegexObject.match` method of the :class:`RegexObject`. This is the
+ index into the string beyond which the RE engine will not go.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: MatchObject.lastindex
+
+ The integer index of the last matched capturing group, or ``None`` if no group
+ was matched at all. For example, the expressions ``(a)b``, ``((a)(b))``, and
+ ``((ab))`` will have ``lastindex == 1`` if applied to the string ``'ab'``, while
+ the expression ``(a)(b)`` will have ``lastindex == 2``, if applied to the same
+ string.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: MatchObject.lastgroup
+
+ The name of the last matched capturing group, or ``None`` if the group didn't
+ have a name, or if no group was matched at all.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: MatchObject.re
+
+ The regular expression object whose :meth:`~RegexObject.match` or
+ :meth:`~RegexObject.search` method produced this :class:`MatchObject`
+ instance.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: MatchObject.string
+
+ The string passed to :meth:`~RegexObject.match` or
+ :meth:`~RegexObject.search`.
+
+
+Examples
+--------
+
+
+Checking For a Pair
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+In this example, we'll use the following helper function to display match
+objects a little more gracefully:
+
+.. testcode::
+
+ def displaymatch(match):
+ if match is None:
+ return None
+ return '<Match: %r, groups=%r>' % (match.group(), match.groups())
+
+Suppose you are writing a poker program where a player's hand is represented as
+a 5-character string with each character representing a card, "a" for ace, "k"
+for king, "q" for queen, "j" for jack, "t" for 10, and "2" through "9"
+representing the card with that value.
+
+To see if a given string is a valid hand, one could do the following:
+
+ >>> valid = re.compile(r"^[a2-9tjqk]{5}$")
+ >>> displaymatch(valid.match("akt5q")) # Valid.
+ "<Match: 'akt5q', groups=()>"
+ >>> displaymatch(valid.match("akt5e")) # Invalid.
+ >>> displaymatch(valid.match("akt")) # Invalid.
+ >>> displaymatch(valid.match("727ak")) # Valid.
+ "<Match: '727ak', groups=()>"
+
+That last hand, ``"727ak"``, contained a pair, or two of the same valued cards.
+To match this with a regular expression, one could use backreferences as such:
+
+ >>> pair = re.compile(r".*(.).*\1")
+ >>> displaymatch(pair.match("717ak")) # Pair of 7s.
+ "<Match: '717', groups=('7',)>"
+ >>> displaymatch(pair.match("718ak")) # No pairs.
+ >>> displaymatch(pair.match("354aa")) # Pair of aces.
+ "<Match: '354aa', groups=('a',)>"
+
+To find out what card the pair consists of, one could use the
+:meth:`~MatchObject.group` method of :class:`MatchObject` in the following
+manner:
+
+.. doctest::
+
+ >>> pair.match("717ak").group(1)
+ '7'
+
+ # Error because re.match() returns None, which doesn't have a group() method:
+ >>> pair.match("718ak").group(1)
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ File "<pyshell#23>", line 1, in <module>
+ re.match(r".*(.).*\1", "718ak").group(1)
+ AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'group'
+
+ >>> pair.match("354aa").group(1)
+ 'a'
+
+
+Simulating scanf()
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. index:: single: scanf()
+
+Python does not currently have an equivalent to :c:func:`scanf`. Regular
+expressions are generally more powerful, though also more verbose, than
+:c:func:`scanf` format strings. The table below offers some more-or-less
+equivalent mappings between :c:func:`scanf` format tokens and regular
+expressions.
+
++--------------------------------+---------------------------------------------+
+| :c:func:`scanf` Token | Regular Expression |
++================================+=============================================+

+To extract the filename and numbers from a string like ::

+
+you would use a :c:func:`scanf` format like ::

+The equivalent regular expression would be ::
+
+ (\S+) - (\d+) errors, (\d+) warnings
+
+
+.. _search-vs-match:
+
+search() vs. match()
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. sectionauthor:: Fred L. Drake, Jr. <[email protected]>
+
+Python offers two different primitive operations based on regular expressions:
+:func:`re.match` checks for a match only at the beginning of the string, while
+:func:`re.search` checks for a match anywhere in the string (this is what Perl
+does by default).
+
+For example::
+
+ >>> re.match("c", "abcdef") # No match
+ >>> re.search("c", "abcdef") # Match
+ <_sre.SRE_Match object at ...>
+
+Regular expressions beginning with ``'^'`` can be used with :func:`search` to
+restrict the match at the beginning of the string::
+
+ >>> re.match("c", "abcdef") # No match
+ >>> re.search("^c", "abcdef") # No match
+ >>> re.search("^a", "abcdef") # Match
+ <_sre.SRE_Match object at ...>
+
+Note however that in :const:`MULTILINE` mode :func:`match` only matches at the
+beginning of the string, whereas using :func:`search` with a regular expression
+beginning with ``'^'`` will match at the beginning of each line.
+
+ >>> re.match('X', 'A\nB\nX', re.MULTILINE) # No match
+ >>> re.search('^X', 'A\nB\nX', re.MULTILINE) # Match
+ <_sre.SRE_Match object at ...>
+
+
+Making a Phonebook
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+:func:`split` splits a string into a list delimited by the passed pattern. The
+method is invaluable for converting textual data into data structures that can be
+easily read and modified by Python as demonstrated in the following example that
+creates a phonebook.
+
+First, here is the input. Normally it may come from a file, here we are using
+triple-quoted string syntax:
+
+ >>> text = """Ross McFluff: 834.345.1254 155 Elm Street
+ ...
+ ... Ronald Heathmore: 892.345.3428 436 Finley Avenue
+ ... Frank Burger: 925.541.7625 662 South Dogwood Way
+ ...
+ ...
+ ... Heather Albrecht: 548.326.4584 919 Park Place"""
+
+The entries are separated by one or more newlines. Now we convert the string
+into a list with each nonempty line having its own entry:
+
+.. doctest::
+ :options: +NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE
+
+ >>> entries = re.split("\n+", text)
+ >>> entries
+ ['Ross McFluff: 834.345.1254 155 Elm Street',
+ 'Ronald Heathmore: 892.345.3428 436 Finley Avenue',
+ 'Frank Burger: 925.541.7625 662 South Dogwood Way',
+ 'Heather Albrecht: 548.326.4584 919 Park Place']
+
+Finally, split each entry into a list with first name, last name, telephone
+number, and address. We use the ``maxsplit`` parameter of :func:`split`
+because the address has spaces, our splitting pattern, in it:
+
+.. doctest::
+ :options: +NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE
+
+ >>> [re.split(":? ", entry, 3) for entry in entries]
+ [['Ross', 'McFluff', '834.345.1254', '155 Elm Street'],
+ ['Ronald', 'Heathmore', '892.345.3428', '436 Finley Avenue'],
+ ['Frank', 'Burger', '925.541.7625', '662 South Dogwood Way'],
+ ['Heather', 'Albrecht', '548.326.4584', '919 Park Place']]
+
+The ``:?`` pattern matches the colon after the last name, so that it does not
+occur in the result list. With a ``maxsplit`` of ``4``, we could separate the
+house number from the street name:
+
+.. doctest::
+ :options: +NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE
+
+ >>> [re.split(":? ", entry, 4) for entry in entries]
+ [['Ross', 'McFluff', '834.345.1254', '155', 'Elm Street'],
+ ['Ronald', 'Heathmore', '892.345.3428', '436', 'Finley Avenue'],
+ ['Frank', 'Burger', '925.541.7625', '662', 'South Dogwood Way'],
+ ['Heather', 'Albrecht', '548.326.4584', '919', 'Park Place']]
+
+
+Text Munging
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+:func:`sub` replaces every occurrence of a pattern with a string or the
+result of a function. This example demonstrates using :func:`sub` with
+a function to "munge" text, or randomize the order of all the characters
+in each word of a sentence except for the first and last characters::
+
+ >>> def repl(m):
+ ... inner_word = list(m.group(2))
+ ... random.shuffle(inner_word)
+ ... return m.group(1) + "".join(inner_word) + m.group(3)
+ >>> text = "Professor Abdolmalek, please report your absences promptly."
+ >>> re.sub(r"(\w)(\w+)(\w)", repl, text)
+ 'Poefsrosr Aealmlobdk, pslaee reorpt your abnseces plmrptoy.'
+ >>> re.sub(r"(\w)(\w+)(\w)", repl, text)
+ 'Pofsroser Aodlambelk, plasee reoprt yuor asnebces potlmrpy.'
+
+
+Finding all Adverbs
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+:func:`findall` matches *all* occurrences of a pattern, not just the first
+one as :func:`search` does. For example, if one was a writer and wanted to
+find all of the adverbs in some text, he or she might use :func:`findall` in
+the following manner:
+
+ >>> text = "He was carefully disguised but captured quickly by police."
+ >>> re.findall(r"\w+ly", text)
+ ['carefully', 'quickly']
+
+
+Finding all Adverbs and their Positions
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+If one wants more information about all matches of a pattern than the matched
+text, :func:`finditer` is useful as it provides instances of
+:class:`MatchObject` instead of strings. Continuing with the previous example,
+if one was a writer who wanted to find all of the adverbs *and their positions*
+in some text, he or she would use :func:`finditer` in the following manner:
+
+ >>> text = "He was carefully disguised but captured quickly by police."
+ >>> for m in re.finditer(r"\w+ly", text):
+ ... print '%02d-%02d: %s' % (m.start(), m.end(), m.group(0))
+ 07-16: carefully
+ 40-47: quickly
+
+
+Raw String Notation
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Raw string notation (``r"text"``) keeps regular expressions sane. Without it,
+every backslash (``'\'``) in a regular expression would have to be prefixed with
+another one to escape it. For example, the two following lines of code are
+functionally identical:
+
+ >>> re.match(r"\W(.)\1\W", " ff ")
+ <_sre.SRE_Match object at ...>
+ >>> re.match("\\W(.)\\1\\W", " ff ")
+ <_sre.SRE_Match object at ...>
+
+When one wants to match a literal backslash, it must be escaped in the regular
+expression. With raw string notation, this means ``r"\\"``. Without raw string
+notation, one must use ``"\\\\"``, making the following lines of code
+functionally identical:
+
+ >>> re.match(r"\\", r"\\")
+ <_sre.SRE_Match object at ...>
+ >>> re.match("\\\\", r"\\")
+ <_sre.SRE_Match object at ...>

+:mod:`readline` --- GNU readline interface
+==========================================
+
+.. module:: readline
+ :platform: Unix
+ :synopsis: GNU readline support for Python.
+.. sectionauthor:: Skip Montanaro <[email protected]>
+
+
+The :mod:`readline` module defines a number of functions to facilitate
+completion and reading/writing of history files from the Python interpreter.
+This module can be used directly or via the :mod:`rlcompleter` module. Settings
+made using this module affect the behaviour of both the interpreter's
+interactive prompt and the prompts offered by the :func:`raw_input` and
+:func:`input` built-in functions.
+
+.. note::
+
+ On MacOS X the :mod:`readline` module can be implemented using
+ the ``libedit`` library instead of GNU readline.
+
+ The configuration file for ``libedit`` is different from that
+ of GNU readline. If you programmatically load configuration strings
+ you can check for the text "libedit" in :const:`readline.__doc__`
+ to differentiate between GNU readline and libedit.
+
+
+The :mod:`readline` module defines the following functions:
+
+
+.. function:: parse_and_bind(string)
+
+ Parse and execute single line of a readline init file.
+
+
+.. function:: get_line_buffer()
+
+ Return the current contents of the line buffer.
+
+
+.. function:: insert_text(string)
+
+ Insert text into the command line.
+
+
+.. function:: read_init_file([filename])
+
+ Parse a readline initialization file. The default filename is the last filename
+ used.
+
+
+.. function:: read_history_file([filename])
+
+ Load a readline history file. The default filename is :file:`~/.history`.
+
+
+.. function:: write_history_file([filename])
+
+ Save a readline history file. The default filename is :file:`~/.history`.
+
+
+.. function:: clear_history()
+
+ Clear the current history. (Note: this function is not available if the
+ installed version of GNU readline doesn't support it.)
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+.. function:: get_history_length()
+
+ Return the desired length of the history file. Negative values imply unlimited
+ history file size.
+
+
+.. function:: set_history_length(length)
+
+ Set the number of lines to save in the history file. :func:`write_history_file`
+ uses this value to truncate the history file when saving. Negative values imply
+ unlimited history file size.
+
+
+.. function:: get_current_history_length()
+
+ Return the number of lines currently in the history. (This is different from
+ :func:`get_history_length`, which returns the maximum number of lines that will
+ be written to a history file.)
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. function:: get_history_item(index)
+
+ Return the current contents of history item at *index*.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. function:: remove_history_item(pos)
+
+ Remove history item specified by its position from the history.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+.. function:: replace_history_item(pos, line)
+
+ Replace history item specified by its position with the given line.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+.. function:: redisplay()
+
+ Change what's displayed on the screen to reflect the current contents of the
+ line buffer.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. function:: set_startup_hook([function])
+
+ Set or remove the startup_hook function. If *function* is specified, it will be
+ used as the new startup_hook function; if omitted or ``None``, any hook function
+ already installed is removed. The startup_hook function is called with no
+ arguments just before readline prints the first prompt.
+
+
+.. function:: set_pre_input_hook([function])
+
+ Set or remove the pre_input_hook function. If *function* is specified, it will
+ be used as the new pre_input_hook function; if omitted or ``None``, any hook
+ function already installed is removed. The pre_input_hook function is called
+ with no arguments after the first prompt has been printed and just before
+ readline starts reading input characters.
+
+
+.. function:: set_completer([function])
+
+ Set or remove the completer function. If *function* is specified, it will be
+ used as the new completer function; if omitted or ``None``, any completer
+ function already installed is removed. The completer function is called as
+ ``function(text, state)``, for *state* in ``0``, ``1``, ``2``, ..., until it
+ returns a non-string value. It should return the next possible completion
+ starting with *text*.
+
+
+.. function:: get_completer()
+
+ Get the completer function, or ``None`` if no completer function has been set.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. function:: get_completion_type()
+
+ Get the type of completion being attempted.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+

+
+ Get the beginning index of the readline tab-completion scope.
+
+
+.. function:: get_endidx()

+
+
+.. function:: set_completer_delims(string)
+

+
+
+.. function:: get_completer_delims()
+
+ Get the readline word delimiters for tab-completion.
+
+.. function:: set_completion_display_matches_hook([function])
+
+ Set or remove the completion display function. If *function* is

+Example
+-------
+
+The following example demonstrates how to use the :mod:`readline` module's
+history reading and writing functions to automatically load and save a history
+file named :file:`.pyhist` from the user's home directory. The code below would

+
+ import os
+ import readline
+ histfile = os.path.join(os.path.expanduser("~"), ".pyhist")

+ except IOError:
+ pass
+ import atexit
+ atexit.register(readline.write_history_file, histfile)
+ del os, histfile
+
+The following example extends the :class:`code.InteractiveConsole` class to
+support history save/restore. ::
+
+ import code
+ import readline
+ import atexit
+ import os
+
+ class HistoryConsole(code.InteractiveConsole):
+ def __init__(self, locals=None, filename="<console>",

+:mod:`repr` --- Alternate :func:`repr` implementation
+=====================================================
+
+.. module:: repr
+ :synopsis: Alternate repr() implementation with size limits.
+.. sectionauthor:: Fred L. Drake, Jr. <[email protected]>
+
+.. note::
+ The :mod:`repr` module has been renamed to :mod:`reprlib` in Python 3. The
+ :term:`2to3` tool will automatically adapt imports when converting your
+ sources to Python 3.
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/repr.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`repr` module provides a means for producing object representations
+with limits on the size of the resulting strings. This is used in the Python
+debugger and may be useful in other contexts as well.
+
+This module provides a class, an instance, and a function:
+
+
+.. class:: Repr()
+
+ Class which provides formatting services useful in implementing functions
+ similar to the built-in :func:`repr`; size limits for different object types
+ are added to avoid the generation of representations which are excessively long.
+
+
+.. data:: aRepr
+
+ This is an instance of :class:`Repr` which is used to provide the :func:`.repr`
+ function described below. Changing the attributes of this object will affect
+ the size limits used by :func:`.repr` and the Python debugger.
+
+
+.. function:: repr(obj)
+
+ This is the :meth:`~Repr.repr` method of ``aRepr``. It returns a string
+ similar to that returned by the built-in function of the same name, but with
+ limits on most sizes.
+
+
+.. _repr-objects:
+
+Repr Objects
+------------
+
+:class:`Repr` instances provide several attributes which can be used to provide
+size limits for the representations of different object types, and methods
+which format specific object types.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Repr.maxlevel
+
+ Depth limit on the creation of recursive representations. The default is ``6``.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Repr.maxdict
+ Repr.maxlist
+ Repr.maxtuple
+ Repr.maxset
+ Repr.maxfrozenset
+ Repr.maxdeque
+ Repr.maxarray
+
+ Limits on the number of entries represented for the named object type. The
+ default is ``4`` for :attr:`maxdict`, ``5`` for :attr:`maxarray`, and ``6`` for
+ the others.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+ :attr:`maxset`, :attr:`maxfrozenset`, and :attr:`set`.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Repr.maxlong
+
+ Maximum number of characters in the representation for a long integer. Digits
+ are dropped from the middle. The default is ``40``.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Repr.maxstring
+
+ Limit on the number of characters in the representation of the string. Note
+ that the "normal" representation of the string is used as the character source:
+ if escape sequences are needed in the representation, these may be mangled when
+ the representation is shortened. The default is ``30``.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Repr.maxother
+
+ This limit is used to control the size of object types for which no specific
+ formatting method is available on the :class:`Repr` object. It is applied in a
+ similar manner as :attr:`maxstring`. The default is ``20``.
+
+
+.. method:: Repr.repr(obj)
+
+ The equivalent to the built-in :func:`repr` that uses the formatting imposed by
+ the instance.
+
+
+.. method:: Repr.repr1(obj, level)
+
+ Recursive implementation used by :meth:`.repr`. This uses the type of *obj* to
+ determine which formatting method to call, passing it *obj* and *level*. The
+ type-specific methods should call :meth:`repr1` to perform recursive formatting,
+ with ``level - 1`` for the value of *level* in the recursive call.
+
+
+.. method:: Repr.repr_TYPE(obj, level)
+ :noindex:
+
+ Formatting methods for specific types are implemented as methods with a name
+ based on the type name. In the method name, **TYPE** is replaced by
+ ``string.join(string.split(type(obj).__name__, '_'))``. Dispatch to these
+ methods is handled by :meth:`repr1`. Type-specific methods which need to
+ recursively format a value should call ``self.repr1(subobj, level - 1)``.
+
+
+.. _subclassing-reprs:
+
+Subclassing Repr Objects
+------------------------
+
+The use of dynamic dispatching by :meth:`Repr.repr1` allows subclasses of
+:class:`Repr` to add support for additional built-in object types or to modify
+the handling of types already supported. This example shows how special support
+for file objects could be added::
+
+ import repr as reprlib
+ import sys
+
+ class MyRepr(reprlib.Repr):
+ def repr_file(self, obj, level):
+ if obj.name in ['<stdin>', '<stdout>', '<stderr>']:
+ return obj.name
+ else:
+ return repr(obj)
+
+ aRepr = MyRepr()
+ print aRepr.repr(sys.stdin) # prints '<stdin>'

+:mod:`resource` --- Resource usage information
+==============================================
+
+.. module:: resource
+ :platform: Unix
+ :synopsis: An interface to provide resource usage information on the current process.
+.. moduleauthor:: Jeremy Hylton <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Jeremy Hylton <[email protected]>
+
+
+This module provides basic mechanisms for measuring and controlling system
+resources utilized by a program.
+
+Symbolic constants are used to specify particular system resources and to
+request usage information about either the current process or its children.
+
+A single exception is defined for errors:
+
+
+.. exception:: error
+
+ The functions described below may raise this error if the underlying system call
+ failures unexpectedly.
+
+
+Resource Limits
+---------------
+
+Resources usage can be limited using the :func:`setrlimit` function described
+below. Each resource is controlled by a pair of limits: a soft limit and a hard
+limit. The soft limit is the current limit, and may be lowered or raised by a
+process over time. The soft limit can never exceed the hard limit. The hard
+limit can be lowered to any value greater than the soft limit, but not raised.
+(Only processes with the effective UID of the super-user can raise a hard
+limit.)
+
+The specific resources that can be limited are system dependent. They are
+described in the :manpage:`getrlimit(2)` man page. The resources listed below
+are supported when the underlying operating system supports them; resources
+which cannot be checked or controlled by the operating system are not defined in
+this module for those platforms.
+
+
+.. data:: RLIM_INFINITY
+
+ Constant used to represent the the limit for an unlimited resource.
+
+
+.. function:: getrlimit(resource)
+
+ Returns a tuple ``(soft, hard)`` with the current soft and hard limits of
+ *resource*. Raises :exc:`ValueError` if an invalid resource is specified, or
+ :exc:`error` if the underlying system call fails unexpectedly.
+
+
+.. function:: setrlimit(resource, limits)
+
+ Sets new limits of consumption of *resource*. The *limits* argument must be a
+ tuple ``(soft, hard)`` of two integers describing the new limits. A value of
+ :data:`~resource.RLIM_INFINITY` can be used to request a limit that is
+ unlimited.
+
+ Raises :exc:`ValueError` if an invalid resource is specified, if the new soft
+ limit exceeds the hard limit, or if a process tries to raise its hard limit.
+ Specifying a limit of :data:`~resource.RLIM_INFINITY` when the hard or
+ system limit for that resource is not unlimited will result in a
+ :exc:`ValueError`. A process with the effective UID of super-user can
+ request any valid limit value, including unlimited, but :exc:`ValueError`
+ will still be raised if the requested limit exceeds the system imposed
+ limit.
+
+ ``setrlimit`` may also raise :exc:`error` if the underlying system call
+ fails.
+
+These symbols define resources whose consumption can be controlled using the
+:func:`setrlimit` and :func:`getrlimit` functions described below. The values of
+these symbols are exactly the constants used by C programs.
+
+The Unix man page for :manpage:`getrlimit(2)` lists the available resources.
+Note that not all systems use the same symbol or same value to denote the same
+resource. This module does not attempt to mask platform differences --- symbols
+not defined for a platform will not be available from this module on that
+platform.
+
+
+.. data:: RLIMIT_CORE
+
+ The maximum size (in bytes) of a core file that the current process can create.
+ This may result in the creation of a partial core file if a larger core would be
+ required to contain the entire process image.
+
+
+.. data:: RLIMIT_CPU
+
+ The maximum amount of processor time (in seconds) that a process can use. If
+ this limit is exceeded, a :const:`SIGXCPU` signal is sent to the process. (See
+ the :mod:`signal` module documentation for information about how to catch this
+ signal and do something useful, e.g. flush open files to disk.)
+
+
+.. data:: RLIMIT_FSIZE
+
+ The maximum size of a file which the process may create. This only affects the
+ stack of the main thread in a multi-threaded process.
+
+
+.. data:: RLIMIT_DATA
+
+ The maximum size (in bytes) of the process's heap.
+
+
+.. data:: RLIMIT_STACK
+
+ The maximum size (in bytes) of the call stack for the current process.
+
+
+.. data:: RLIMIT_RSS
+
+ The maximum resident set size that should be made available to the process.
+
+
+.. data:: RLIMIT_NPROC
+
+ The maximum number of processes the current process may create.
+
+
+.. data:: RLIMIT_NOFILE
+
+ The maximum number of open file descriptors for the current process.
+
+
+.. data:: RLIMIT_OFILE
+
+ The BSD name for :const:`RLIMIT_NOFILE`.
+
+
+.. data:: RLIMIT_MEMLOCK
+
+ The maximum address space which may be locked in memory.
+
+
+.. data:: RLIMIT_VMEM
+
+ The largest area of mapped memory which the process may occupy.
+
+
+.. data:: RLIMIT_AS
+
+ The maximum area (in bytes) of address space which may be taken by the process.
+
+
+Resource Usage
+--------------
+
+These functions are used to retrieve resource usage information:
+
+
+.. function:: getrusage(who)
+
+ This function returns an object that describes the resources consumed by either
+ the current process or its children, as specified by the *who* parameter. The
+ *who* parameter should be specified using one of the :const:`RUSAGE_\*`
+ constants described below.
+
+ The fields of the return value each describe how a particular system resource
+ has been used, e.g. amount of time spent running is user mode or number of times
+ the process was swapped out of main memory. Some values are dependent on the
+ clock tick internal, e.g. the amount of memory the process is using.
+
+ For backward compatibility, the return value is also accessible as a tuple of 16
+ elements.
+
+ The fields :attr:`ru_utime` and :attr:`ru_stime` of the return value are
+ floating point values representing the amount of time spent executing in user
+ mode and the amount of time spent executing in system mode, respectively. The
+ remaining values are integers. Consult the :manpage:`getrusage(2)` man page for
+ detailed information about these values. A brief summary is presented here:
+
+ +--------+---------------------+-------------------------------+
+ | Index | Field | Resource |
+ +========+=====================+===============================+
+ | ``0`` | :attr:`ru_utime` | time in user mode (float) |
+ +--------+---------------------+-------------------------------+
+ | ``1`` | :attr:`ru_stime` | time in system mode (float) |
+ +--------+---------------------+-------------------------------+
+ | ``2`` | :attr:`ru_maxrss` | maximum resident set size |
+ +--------+---------------------+-------------------------------+
+ | ``3`` | :attr:`ru_ixrss` | shared memory size |
+ +--------+---------------------+-------------------------------+
+ | ``4`` | :attr:`ru_idrss` | unshared memory size |
+ +--------+---------------------+-------------------------------+
+ | ``5`` | :attr:`ru_isrss` | unshared stack size |
+ +--------+---------------------+-------------------------------+
+ | ``6`` | :attr:`ru_minflt` | page faults not requiring I/O |
+ +--------+---------------------+-------------------------------+
+ | ``7`` | :attr:`ru_majflt` | page faults requiring I/O |
+ +--------+---------------------+-------------------------------+
+ | ``8`` | :attr:`ru_nswap` | number of swap outs |
+ +--------+---------------------+-------------------------------+
+ | ``9`` | :attr:`ru_inblock` | block input operations |
+ +--------+---------------------+-------------------------------+
+ | ``10`` | :attr:`ru_oublock` | block output operations |

+ +--------+---------------------+-------------------------------+
+ | ``15`` | :attr:`ru_nivcsw` | involuntary context switches |
+ +--------+---------------------+-------------------------------+
+
+ This function will raise a :exc:`ValueError` if an invalid *who* parameter is
+ specified. It may also raise :exc:`error` exception in unusual circumstances.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ Added access to values as attributes of the returned object.
+
+
+.. function:: getpagesize()
+
+ Returns the number of bytes in a system page. (This need not be the same as the
+ hardware page size.) This function is useful for determining the number of bytes
+ of memory a process is using. The third element of the tuple returned by
+ :func:`getrusage` describes memory usage in pages; multiplying by page size
+ produces number of bytes.
+
+The following :const:`RUSAGE_\*` symbols are passed to the :func:`getrusage`
+function to specify which processes information should be provided for.
+
+
+.. data:: RUSAGE_SELF
+
+ :const:`RUSAGE_SELF` should be used to request information pertaining only to
+ the process itself.
+
+
+.. data:: RUSAGE_CHILDREN
+
+ Pass to :func:`getrusage` to request resource information for child processes of
+ the calling process.
+
+
+.. data:: RUSAGE_BOTH
+
+ Pass to :func:`getrusage` to request resources consumed by both the current
+ process and child processes. May not be available on all systems.

+********************
+Restricted Execution
+********************
+
+.. warning::
+
+ In Python 2.3 these modules have been disabled due to various known and not
+ readily fixable security holes. The modules are still documented here to help
+ in reading old code that uses the :mod:`rexec` and :mod:`Bastion` modules.
+
+*Restricted execution* is the basic framework in Python that allows for the
+segregation of trusted and untrusted code. The framework is based on the notion
+that trusted Python code (a *supervisor*) can create a "padded cell' (or
+environment) with limited permissions, and run the untrusted code within this
+cell. The untrusted code cannot break out of its cell, and can only interact
+with sensitive system resources through interfaces defined and managed by the
+trusted code. The term "restricted execution" is favored over "safe-Python"
+since true safety is hard to define, and is determined by the way the restricted
+environment is created. Note that the restricted environments can be nested,
+with inner cells creating subcells of lesser, but never greater, privilege.
+
+An interesting aspect of Python's restricted execution model is that the
+interfaces presented to untrusted code usually have the same names as those
+presented to trusted code. Therefore no special interfaces need to be learned
+to write code designed to run in a restricted environment. And because the
+exact nature of the padded cell is determined by the supervisor, different
+restrictions can be imposed, depending on the application. For example, it
+might be deemed "safe" for untrusted code to read any file within a specified
+directory, but never to write a file. In this case, the supervisor may redefine
+the built-in :func:`open` function so that it raises an exception whenever the
+*mode* parameter is ``'w'``. It might also perform a :c:func:`chroot`\ -like
+operation on the *filename* parameter, such that root is always relative to some
+safe "sandbox" area of the filesystem. In this case, the untrusted code would
+still see an built-in :func:`open` function in its environment, with the same
+calling interface. The semantics would be identical too, with :exc:`IOError`\ s
+being raised when the supervisor determined that an unallowable parameter is
+being used.
+
+The Python run-time determines whether a particular code block is executing in
+restricted execution mode based on the identity of the ``__builtins__`` object
+in its global variables: if this is (the dictionary of) the standard
+:mod:`__builtin__` module, the code is deemed to be unrestricted, else it is
+deemed to be restricted.
+
+Python code executing in restricted mode faces a number of limitations that are
+designed to prevent it from escaping from the padded cell. For instance, the
+function object attribute :attr:`func_globals` and the class and instance object
+attribute :attr:`__dict__` are unavailable.
+
+Two modules provide the framework for setting up restricted execution
+environments:
+
+
+.. toctree::
+
+ rexec.rst
+ bastion.rst
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ `Grail Home Page <http://grail.sourceforge.net/>`_
+ Grail, an Internet browser written in Python, uses these modules to support
+ Python applets. More information on the use of Python's restricted execution
+ mode in Grail is available on the Web site.

+:mod:`rexec` --- Restricted execution framework
+===============================================
+
+.. module:: rexec
+ :synopsis: Basic restricted execution framework.
+ :deprecated:
+
+.. deprecated:: 2.6
+ The :mod:`rexec` module has been removed in Python 3.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ Disabled module.
+
+.. warning::
+
+ The documentation has been left in place to help in reading old code that uses
+ the module.
+
+This module contains the :class:`RExec` class, which supports :meth:`r_eval`,
+:meth:`r_execfile`, :meth:`r_exec`, and :meth:`r_import` methods, which are
+restricted versions of the standard Python functions :meth:`eval`,
+:meth:`execfile` and the :keyword:`exec` and :keyword:`import` statements. Code
+executed in this restricted environment will only have access to modules and
+functions that are deemed safe; you can subclass :class:`RExec` to add or remove
+capabilities as desired.
+
+.. warning::
+
+ While the :mod:`rexec` module is designed to perform as described below, it does
+ have a few known vulnerabilities which could be exploited by carefully written
+ code. Thus it should not be relied upon in situations requiring "production
+ ready" security. In such situations, execution via sub-processes or very
+ careful "cleansing" of both code and data to be processed may be necessary.
+ Alternatively, help in patching known :mod:`rexec` vulnerabilities would be
+ welcomed.
+
+.. note::
+
+ The :class:`RExec` class can prevent code from performing unsafe operations like
+ reading or writing disk files, or using TCP/IP sockets. However, it does not
+ protect against code using extremely large amounts of memory or processor time.
+
+
+.. class:: RExec([hooks[, verbose]])
+
+ Returns an instance of the :class:`RExec` class.
+
+ *hooks* is an instance of the :class:`RHooks` class or a subclass of it. If it
+ is omitted or ``None``, the default :class:`RHooks` class is instantiated.
+ Whenever the :mod:`rexec` module searches for a module (even a built-in one) or
+ reads a module's code, it doesn't actually go out to the file system itself.
+ Rather, it calls methods of an :class:`RHooks` instance that was passed to or
+ created by its constructor. (Actually, the :class:`RExec` object doesn't make
+ these calls --- they are made by a module loader object that's part of the
+ :class:`RExec` object. This allows another level of flexibility, which can be
+ useful when changing the mechanics of :keyword:`import` within the restricted
+ environment.)
+
+ By providing an alternate :class:`RHooks` object, we can control the file system
+ accesses made to import a module, without changing the actual algorithm that
+ controls the order in which those accesses are made. For instance, we could
+ substitute an :class:`RHooks` object that passes all filesystem requests to a
+ file server elsewhere, via some RPC mechanism such as ILU. Grail's applet
+ loader uses this to support importing applets from a URL for a directory.
+
+ If *verbose* is true, additional debugging output may be sent to standard
+ output.
+
+It is important to be aware that code running in a restricted environment can
+still call the :func:`sys.exit` function. To disallow restricted code from
+exiting the interpreter, always protect calls that cause restricted code to run
+with a :keyword:`try`/:keyword:`except` statement that catches the
+:exc:`SystemExit` exception. Removing the :func:`sys.exit` function from the
+restricted environment is not sufficient --- the restricted code could still use
+``raise SystemExit``. Removing :exc:`SystemExit` is not a reasonable option;
+some library code makes use of this and would break were it not available.
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ `Grail Home Page <http://grail.sourceforge.net/>`_
+ Grail is a Web browser written entirely in Python. It uses the :mod:`rexec`
+ module as a foundation for supporting Python applets, and can be used as an
+ example usage of this module.
+
+
+.. _rexec-objects:
+
+RExec Objects
+-------------
+
+:class:`RExec` instances support the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: RExec.r_eval(code)
+
+ *code* must either be a string containing a Python expression, or a compiled
+ code object, which will be evaluated in the restricted environment's
+ :mod:`__main__` module. The value of the expression or code object will be
+ returned.
+
+
+.. method:: RExec.r_exec(code)
+
+ *code* must either be a string containing one or more lines of Python code, or a
+ compiled code object, which will be executed in the restricted environment's
+ :mod:`__main__` module.
+
+
+.. method:: RExec.r_execfile(filename)
+
+ Execute the Python code contained in the file *filename* in the restricted
+ environment's :mod:`__main__` module.
+
+Methods whose names begin with ``s_`` are similar to the functions beginning
+with ``r_``, but the code will be granted access to restricted versions of the
+standard I/O streams ``sys.stdin``, ``sys.stderr``, and ``sys.stdout``.
+
+
+.. method:: RExec.s_eval(code)
+
+ *code* must be a string containing a Python expression, which will be evaluated
+ in the restricted environment.
+
+
+.. method:: RExec.s_exec(code)
+
+ *code* must be a string containing one or more lines of Python code, which will
+ be executed in the restricted environment.
+
+
+.. method:: RExec.s_execfile(code)
+
+ Execute the Python code contained in the file *filename* in the restricted
+ environment.
+
+:class:`RExec` objects must also support various methods which will be
+implicitly called by code executing in the restricted environment. Overriding
+these methods in a subclass is used to change the policies enforced by a
+restricted environment.
+
+
+.. method:: RExec.r_import(modulename[, globals[, locals[, fromlist]]])
+
+ Import the module *modulename*, raising an :exc:`ImportError` exception if the
+ module is considered unsafe.
+
+
+.. method:: RExec.r_open(filename[, mode[, bufsize]])
+
+ Method called when :func:`open` is called in the restricted environment. The
+ arguments are identical to those of :func:`open`, and a file object (or a class
+ instance compatible with file objects) should be returned. :class:`RExec`'s
+ default behaviour is allow opening any file for reading, but forbidding any
+ attempt to write a file. See the example below for an implementation of a less
+ restrictive :meth:`r_open`.
+
+
+.. method:: RExec.r_reload(module)
+
+ Reload the module object *module*, re-parsing and re-initializing it.
+
+
+.. method:: RExec.r_unload(module)
+
+ Unload the module object *module* (remove it from the restricted environment's
+ ``sys.modules`` dictionary).
+
+And their equivalents with access to restricted standard I/O streams:
+
+
+.. method:: RExec.s_import(modulename[, globals[, locals[, fromlist]]])
+
+ Import the module *modulename*, raising an :exc:`ImportError` exception if the
+ module is considered unsafe.
+
+
+.. method:: RExec.s_reload(module)
+
+ Reload the module object *module*, re-parsing and re-initializing it.
+
+
+.. method:: RExec.s_unload(module)
+
+ Unload the module object *module*.
+
+ .. XXX what are the semantics of this?
+
+
+.. _rexec-extension:
+
+Defining restricted environments
+--------------------------------
+
+The :class:`RExec` class has the following class attributes, which are used by
+the :meth:`__init__` method. Changing them on an existing instance won't have
+any effect; instead, create a subclass of :class:`RExec` and assign them new
+values in the class definition. Instances of the new class will then use those
+new values. All these attributes are tuples of strings.
+
+
+.. attribute:: RExec.nok_builtin_names
+
+ Contains the names of built-in functions which will *not* be available to
+ programs running in the restricted environment. The value for :class:`RExec` is
+ ``('open', 'reload', '__import__')``. (This gives the exceptions, because by far
+ the majority of built-in functions are harmless. A subclass that wants to
+ override this variable should probably start with the value from the base class
+ and concatenate additional forbidden functions --- when new dangerous built-in
+ functions are added to Python, they will also be added to this module.)
+
+
+.. attribute:: RExec.ok_builtin_modules
+
+ Contains the names of built-in modules which can be safely imported. The value
+ for :class:`RExec` is ``('audioop', 'array', 'binascii', 'cmath', 'errno',
+ 'imageop', 'marshal', 'math', 'md5', 'operator', 'parser', 'regex', 'select',
+ 'sha', '_sre', 'strop', 'struct', 'time')``. A similar remark about overriding
+ this variable applies --- use the value from the base class as a starting point.
+
+
+.. attribute:: RExec.ok_path
+
+ Contains the directories which will be searched when an :keyword:`import` is
+ performed in the restricted environment. The value for :class:`RExec` is the
+ same as ``sys.path`` (at the time the module is loaded) for unrestricted code.
+
+
+.. attribute:: RExec.ok_posix_names
+
+ Contains the names of the functions in the :mod:`os` module which will be
+ available to programs running in the restricted environment. The value for
+ :class:`RExec` is ``('error', 'fstat', 'listdir', 'lstat', 'readlink', 'stat',
+ 'times', 'uname', 'getpid', 'getppid', 'getcwd', 'getuid', 'getgid', 'geteuid',
+ 'getegid')``.
+
+ .. Should this be called ok_os_names?
+
+
+.. attribute:: RExec.ok_sys_names
+
+ Contains the names of the functions and variables in the :mod:`sys` module which
+ will be available to programs running in the restricted environment. The value
+ for :class:`RExec` is ``('ps1', 'ps2', 'copyright', 'version', 'platform',
+ 'exit', 'maxint')``.
+
+
+.. attribute:: RExec.ok_file_types
+
+ Contains the file types from which modules are allowed to be loaded. Each file
+ type is an integer constant defined in the :mod:`imp` module. The meaningful
+ values are :const:`PY_SOURCE`, :const:`PY_COMPILED`, and :const:`C_EXTENSION`.
+ The value for :class:`RExec` is ``(C_EXTENSION, PY_SOURCE)``. Adding
+ :const:`PY_COMPILED` in subclasses is not recommended; an attacker could exit
+ the restricted execution mode by putting a forged byte-compiled file
+ (:file:`.pyc`) anywhere in your file system, for example by writing it to
+ :file:`/tmp` or uploading it to the :file:`/incoming` directory of your public
+ FTP server.
+
+
+An example
+----------
+
+Let us say that we want a slightly more relaxed policy than the standard
+:class:`RExec` class. For example, if we're willing to allow files in
+:file:`/tmp` to be written, we can subclass the :class:`RExec` class::
+
+ class TmpWriterRExec(rexec.RExec):
+ def r_open(self, file, mode='r', buf=-1):
+ if mode in ('r', 'rb'):
+ pass
+ elif mode in ('w', 'wb', 'a', 'ab'):
+ # check filename : must begin with /tmp/
+ if file[:5]!='/tmp/':
+ raise IOError("can't write outside /tmp")
+ elif (string.find(file, '/../') >= 0 or
+ file[:3] == '../' or file[-3:] == '/..'):
+ raise IOError("'..' in filename forbidden")
+ else: raise IOError("Illegal open() mode")
+ return open(file, mode, buf)
+
+Notice that the above code will occasionally forbid a perfectly valid filename;
+for example, code in the restricted environment won't be able to open a file
+called :file:`/tmp/foo/../bar`. To fix this, the :meth:`r_open` method would
+have to simplify the filename to :file:`/tmp/bar`, which would require splitting
+apart the filename and performing various operations on it. In cases where
+security is at stake, it may be preferable to write simple code which is
+sometimes overly restrictive, instead of more general code that is also more
+complex and may harbor a subtle security hole.

+:mod:`rfc822` --- Parse RFC 2822 mail headers
+=============================================
+
+.. module:: rfc822
+ :synopsis: Parse 2822 style mail messages.
+ :deprecated:
+
+
+.. deprecated:: 2.3
+ The :mod:`email` package should be used in preference to the :mod:`rfc822`
+ module. This module is present only to maintain backward compatibility, and
+ has been removed in Python 3.
+
+This module defines a class, :class:`Message`, which represents an "email
+message" as defined by the Internet standard :rfc:`2822`. [#]_ Such messages
+consist of a collection of message headers, and a message body. This module
+also defines a helper class :class:`AddressList` for parsing :rfc:`2822`
+addresses. Please refer to the RFC for information on the specific syntax of
+:rfc:`2822` messages.
+
+.. index:: module: mailbox
+
+The :mod:`mailbox` module provides classes to read mailboxes produced by
+various end-user mail programs.
+
+
+.. class:: Message(file[, seekable])
+
+ A :class:`Message` instance is instantiated with an input object as parameter.
+ Message relies only on the input object having a :meth:`readline` method; in
+ particular, ordinary file objects qualify. Instantiation reads headers from the
+ input object up to a delimiter line (normally a blank line) and stores them in
+ the instance. The message body, following the headers, is not consumed.
+
+ This class can work with any input object that supports a :meth:`readline`
+ method. If the input object has seek and tell capability, the
+ :meth:`rewindbody` method will work; also, illegal lines will be pushed back
+ onto the input stream. If the input object lacks seek but has an :meth:`unread`
+ method that can push back a line of input, :class:`Message` will use that to
+ push back illegal lines. Thus this class can be used to parse messages coming
+ from a buffered stream.
+
+ The optional *seekable* argument is provided as a workaround for certain stdio
+ libraries in which :c:func:`tell` discards buffered data before discovering that
+ the :c:func:`lseek` system call doesn't work. For maximum portability, you
+ should set the seekable argument to zero to prevent that initial :meth:`tell`
+ when passing in an unseekable object such as a file object created from a socket
+ object.
+
+ Input lines as read from the file may either be terminated by CR-LF or by a
+ single linefeed; a terminating CR-LF is replaced by a single linefeed before the
+ line is stored.
+
+ All header matching is done independent of upper or lower case; e.g.
+ ``m['From']``, ``m['from']`` and ``m['FROM']`` all yield the same result.
+
+
+.. class:: AddressList(field)
+
+ You may instantiate the :class:`AddressList` helper class using a single string
+ parameter, a comma-separated list of :rfc:`2822` addresses to be parsed. (The
+ parameter ``None`` yields an empty list.)
+
+
+.. function:: quote(str)
+
+ Return a new string with backslashes in *str* replaced by two backslashes and
+ double quotes replaced by backslash-double quote.
+
+
+.. function:: unquote(str)
+
+ Return a new string which is an *unquoted* version of *str*. If *str* ends and
+ begins with double quotes, they are stripped off. Likewise if *str* ends and
+ begins with angle brackets, they are stripped off.
+
+
+.. function:: parseaddr(address)
+
+ Parse *address*, which should be the value of some address-containing field such
+ as :mailheader:`To` or :mailheader:`Cc`, into its constituent "realname" and
+ "email address" parts. Returns a tuple of that information, unless the parse
+ fails, in which case a 2-tuple ``(None, None)`` is returned.
+
+
+.. function:: dump_address_pair(pair)
+
+ The inverse of :meth:`parseaddr`, this takes a 2-tuple of the form ``(realname,
+ email_address)`` and returns the string value suitable for a :mailheader:`To` or
+ :mailheader:`Cc` header. If the first element of *pair* is false, then the
+ second element is returned unmodified.
+
+
+.. function:: parsedate(date)
+
+ Attempts to parse a date according to the rules in :rfc:`2822`. however, some
+ mailers don't follow that format as specified, so :func:`parsedate` tries to
+ guess correctly in such cases. *date* is a string containing an :rfc:`2822`
+ date, such as ``'Mon, 20 Nov 1995 19:12:08 -0500'``. If it succeeds in parsing
+ the date, :func:`parsedate` returns a 9-tuple that can be passed directly to
+ :func:`time.mktime`; otherwise ``None`` will be returned. Note that indexes 6,
+ 7, and 8 of the result tuple are not usable.
+
+
+.. function:: parsedate_tz(date)
+
+ Performs the same function as :func:`parsedate`, but returns either ``None`` or
+ a 10-tuple; the first 9 elements make up a tuple that can be passed directly to
+ :func:`time.mktime`, and the tenth is the offset of the date's timezone from UTC
+ (which is the official term for Greenwich Mean Time). (Note that the sign of
+ the timezone offset is the opposite of the sign of the ``time.timezone``
+ variable for the same timezone; the latter variable follows the POSIX standard
+ while this module follows :rfc:`2822`.) If the input string has no timezone,
+ the last element of the tuple returned is ``None``. Note that indexes 6, 7, and
+ 8 of the result tuple are not usable.
+
+
+.. function:: mktime_tz(tuple)
+
+ Turn a 10-tuple as returned by :func:`parsedate_tz` into a UTC timestamp. If
+ the timezone item in the tuple is ``None``, assume local time. Minor
+ deficiency: this first interprets the first 8 elements as a local time and then
+ compensates for the timezone difference; this may yield a slight error around
+ daylight savings time switch dates. Not enough to worry about for common use.
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ Module :mod:`email`
+ Comprehensive email handling package; supersedes the :mod:`rfc822` module.
+
+ Module :mod:`mailbox`
+ Classes to read various mailbox formats produced by end-user mail programs.
+
+ Module :mod:`mimetools`
+ Subclass of :class:`rfc822.Message` that handles MIME encoded messages.
+
+
+.. _message-objects:
+
+Message Objects
+---------------
+
+A :class:`Message` instance has the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: Message.rewindbody()
+
+ Seek to the start of the message body. This only works if the file object is
+ seekable.
+
+
+.. method:: Message.isheader(line)
+
+ Returns a line's canonicalized fieldname (the dictionary key that will be used
+ to index it) if the line is a legal :rfc:`2822` header; otherwise returns
+ ``None`` (implying that parsing should stop here and the line be pushed back on
+ the input stream). It is sometimes useful to override this method in a
+ subclass.
+
+
+.. method:: Message.islast(line)
+
+ Return true if the given line is a delimiter on which Message should stop. The
+ delimiter line is consumed, and the file object's read location positioned
+ immediately after it. By default this method just checks that the line is
+ blank, but you can override it in a subclass.
+
+
+.. method:: Message.iscomment(line)
+
+ Return ``True`` if the given line should be ignored entirely, just skipped. By
+ default this is a stub that always returns ``False``, but you can override it in
+ a subclass.
+
+
+.. method:: Message.getallmatchingheaders(name)
+
+ Return a list of lines consisting of all headers matching *name*, if any. Each
+ physical line, whether it is a continuation line or not, is a separate list
+ item. Return the empty list if no header matches *name*.
+
+
+.. method:: Message.getfirstmatchingheader(name)
+
+ Return a list of lines comprising the first header matching *name*, and its
+ continuation line(s), if any. Return ``None`` if there is no header matching
+ *name*.
+
+
+.. method:: Message.getrawheader(name)
+
+ Return a single string consisting of the text after the colon in the first
+ header matching *name*. This includes leading whitespace, the trailing
+ linefeed, and internal linefeeds and whitespace if there any continuation
+ line(s) were present. Return ``None`` if there is no header matching *name*.
+
+
+.. method:: Message.getheader(name[, default])
+
+ Return a single string consisting of the last header matching *name*,
+ but strip leading and trailing whitespace.
+ Internal whitespace is not stripped. The optional *default* argument can be
+ used to specify a different default to be returned when there is no header
+ matching *name*; it defaults to ``None``.
+ This is the preferred way to get parsed headers.
+
+
+.. method:: Message.get(name[, default])
+
+ An alias for :meth:`getheader`, to make the interface more compatible with
+ regular dictionaries.
+
+
+.. method:: Message.getaddr(name)
+
+ Return a pair ``(full name, email address)`` parsed from the string returned by
+ ``getheader(name)``. If no header matching *name* exists, return ``(None,
+ None)``; otherwise both the full name and the address are (possibly empty)
+ strings.
+
+ Example: If *m*'s first :mailheader:`From` header contains the string
+ ``'[email protected] (Jack Jansen)'``, then ``m.getaddr('From')`` will yield the pair
+ ``('Jack Jansen', '[email protected]')``. If the header contained ``'Jack Jansen
+ <[email protected]>'`` instead, it would yield the exact same result.
+
+
+.. method:: Message.getaddrlist(name)
+
+ This is similar to ``getaddr(list)``, but parses a header containing a list of
+ email addresses (e.g. a :mailheader:`To` header) and returns a list of ``(full
+ name, email address)`` pairs (even if there was only one address in the header).
+ If there is no header matching *name*, return an empty list.
+
+ If multiple headers exist that match the named header (e.g. if there are several
+ :mailheader:`Cc` headers), all are parsed for addresses. Any continuation lines
+ the named headers contain are also parsed.
+
+
+.. method:: Message.getdate(name)
+
+ Retrieve a header using :meth:`getheader` and parse it into a 9-tuple compatible
+ with :func:`time.mktime`; note that fields 6, 7, and 8 are not usable. If
+ there is no header matching *name*, or it is unparsable, return ``None``.
+
+ Date parsing appears to be a black art, and not all mailers adhere to the
+ standard. While it has been tested and found correct on a large collection of
+ email from many sources, it is still possible that this function may
+ occasionally yield an incorrect result.
+
+
+.. method:: Message.getdate_tz(name)
+
+ Retrieve a header using :meth:`getheader` and parse it into a 10-tuple; the
+ first 9 elements will make a tuple compatible with :func:`time.mktime`, and the
+ 10th is a number giving the offset of the date's timezone from UTC. Note that
+ fields 6, 7, and 8 are not usable. Similarly to :meth:`getdate`, if there is
+ no header matching *name*, or it is unparsable, return ``None``.
+
+:class:`Message` instances also support a limited mapping interface. In
+particular: ``m[name]`` is like ``m.getheader(name)`` but raises :exc:`KeyError`
+if there is no matching header; and ``len(m)``, ``m.get(name[, default])``,
+``name in m``, ``m.keys()``, ``m.values()`` ``m.items()``, and
+``m.setdefault(name[, default])`` act as expected, with the one difference
+that :meth:`setdefault` uses an empty string as the default value.
+:class:`Message` instances also support the mapping writable interface ``m[name]
+= value`` and ``del m[name]``. :class:`Message` objects do not support the
+:meth:`clear`, :meth:`copy`, :meth:`popitem`, or :meth:`update` methods of the
+mapping interface. (Support for :meth:`get` and :meth:`setdefault` was only
+added in Python 2.2.)
+
+Finally, :class:`Message` instances have some public instance variables:
+
+
+.. attribute:: Message.headers
+
+ A list containing the entire set of header lines, in the order in which they
+ were read (except that setitem calls may disturb this order). Each line contains
+ a trailing newline. The blank line terminating the headers is not contained in
+ the list.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Message.fp
+
+ The file or file-like object passed at instantiation time. This can be used to
+ read the message content.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Message.unixfrom
+
+ The Unix ``From`` line, if the message had one, or an empty string. This is
+ needed to regenerate the message in some contexts, such as an ``mbox``\ -style
+ mailbox file.
+
+
+.. _addresslist-objects:

+AddressList Objects
+-------------------
+
+An :class:`AddressList` instance has the following methods:
+
+

+
+
+.. method:: AddressList.__str__()
+
+ Return a canonicalized string representation of the address list. Addresses are

+
+
+.. method:: AddressList.__add__(alist)
+
+ Return a new :class:`AddressList` instance that contains all addresses in both
+ :class:`AddressList` operands, with duplicates removed (set union).
+
+
+.. method:: AddressList.__iadd__(alist)
+
+ In-place version of :meth:`__add__`; turns this :class:`AddressList` instance
+ into the union of itself and the right-hand instance, *alist*.
+
+
+.. method:: AddressList.__sub__(alist)
+
+ Return a new :class:`AddressList` instance that contains every address in the
+ left-hand :class:`AddressList` operand that is not present in the right-hand
+ address operand (set difference).
+
+
+.. method:: AddressList.__isub__(alist)
+
+ In-place version of :meth:`__sub__`, removing addresses in this list which are
+ also in *alist*.
+
+Finally, :class:`AddressList` instances have one public instance variable:
+
+
+.. attribute:: AddressList.addresslist
+
+ A list of tuple string pairs, one per address. In each member, the first is the
+ canonicalized name part, the second is the actual route-address (``'@'``\
+ -separated username-host.domain pair).

+:mod:`rlcompleter` --- Completion function for GNU readline
+===========================================================
+
+.. module:: rlcompleter
+ :synopsis: Python identifier completion, suitable for the GNU readline library.
+.. sectionauthor:: Moshe Zadka <[email protected]>
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/rlcompleter.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`rlcompleter` module defines a completion function suitable for the
+:mod:`readline` module by completing valid Python identifiers and keywords.
+
+When this module is imported on a Unix platform with the :mod:`readline` module
+available, an instance of the :class:`Completer` class is automatically created
+and its :meth:`complete` method is set as the :mod:`readline` completer.
+
+Example::
+
+ >>> import rlcompleter
+ >>> import readline
+ >>> readline.parse_and_bind("tab: complete")
+ >>> readline. <TAB PRESSED>
+ readline.__doc__ readline.get_line_buffer( readline.read_init_file(
+ readline.__file__ readline.insert_text( readline.set_completer(
+ readline.__name__ readline.parse_and_bind(
+ >>> readline.
+
+The :mod:`rlcompleter` module is designed for use with Python's interactive
+mode. A user can add the following lines to his or her initialization file
+(identified by the :envvar:`PYTHONSTARTUP` environment variable) to get
+automatic :kbd:`Tab` completion::
+
+ try:
+ import readline
+ except ImportError:
+ print "Module readline not available."
+ else:
+ import rlcompleter
+ readline.parse_and_bind("tab: complete")
+
+On platforms without :mod:`readline`, the :class:`Completer` class defined by
+this module can still be used for custom purposes.
+
+
+.. _completer-objects:
+
+Completer Objects
+-----------------
+
+Completer objects have the following method:
+
+
+.. method:: Completer.complete(text, state)
+
+ Return the *state*\ th completion for *text*.
+
+ If called for *text* that doesn't include a period character (``'.'``), it will
+ complete from names currently defined in :mod:`__main__`, :mod:`__builtin__` and
+ keywords (as defined by the :mod:`keyword` module).
+
+ If called for a dotted name, it will try to evaluate anything without obvious
+ side-effects (functions will not be evaluated, but it can generate calls to
+ :meth:`__getattr__`) up to the last part, and find matches for the rest via the
+ :func:`dir` function. Any exception raised during the evaluation of the
+ expression is caught, silenced and :const:`None` is returned.

+:mod:`runpy` --- Locating and executing Python modules
+======================================================
+
+.. module:: runpy
+ :synopsis: Locate and run Python modules without importing them first.
+.. moduleauthor:: Nick Coghlan <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/runpy.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`runpy` module is used to locate and run Python modules without
+importing them first. Its main use is to implement the :option:`-m` command
+line switch that allows scripts to be located using the Python module
+namespace rather than the filesystem.
+
+The :mod:`runpy` module provides two functions:
+
+
+.. function:: run_module(mod_name, init_globals=None, run_name=None, alter_sys=False)
+
+ Execute the code of the specified module and return the resulting module
+ globals dictionary. The module's code is first located using the standard
+ import mechanism (refer to :pep:`302` for details) and then executed in a
+ fresh module namespace.
+
+ If the supplied module name refers to a package rather than a normal
+ module, then that package is imported and the ``__main__`` submodule within
+ that package is then executed and the resulting module globals dictionary
+ returned.
+
+ The optional dictionary argument *init_globals* may be used to pre-populate
+ the module's globals dictionary before the code is executed. The supplied
+ dictionary will not be modified. If any of the special global variables
+ below are defined in the supplied dictionary, those definitions are
+ overridden by :func:`run_module`.
+
+ The special global variables ``__name__``, ``__file__``, ``__loader__``
+ and ``__package__`` are set in the globals dictionary before the module
+ code is executed (Note that this is a minimal set of variables - other
+ variables may be set implicitly as an interpreter implementation detail).
+
+ ``__name__`` is set to *run_name* if this optional argument is not
+ :const:`None`, to ``mod_name + '.__main__'`` if the named module is a
+ package and to the *mod_name* argument otherwise.
+
+ ``__file__`` is set to the name provided by the module loader. If the
+ loader does not make filename information available, this variable is set
+ to :const:`None`.
+
+ ``__loader__`` is set to the :pep:`302` module loader used to retrieve the
+ code for the module (This loader may be a wrapper around the standard
+ import mechanism).
+
+ ``__package__`` is set to *mod_name* if the named module is a package and
+ to ``mod_name.rpartition('.')[0]`` otherwise.
+
+ If the argument *alter_sys* is supplied and evaluates to :const:`True`,
+ then ``sys.argv[0]`` is updated with the value of ``__file__`` and
+ ``sys.modules[__name__]`` is updated with a temporary module object for the
+ module being executed. Both ``sys.argv[0]`` and ``sys.modules[__name__]``
+ are restored to their original values before the function returns.
+
+ Note that this manipulation of :mod:`sys` is not thread-safe. Other threads
+ may see the partially initialised module, as well as the altered list of
+ arguments. It is recommended that the :mod:`sys` module be left alone when
+ invoking this function from threaded code.
+
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ Added ability to execute packages by looking for a ``__main__``
+ submodule
+
+
+.. function:: run_path(file_path, init_globals=None, run_name=None)
+
+ Execute the code at the named filesystem location and return the resulting
+ module globals dictionary. As with a script name supplied to the CPython
+ command line, the supplied path may refer to a Python source file, a
+ compiled bytecode file or a valid sys.path entry containing a ``__main__``
+ module (e.g. a zipfile containing a top-level ``__main__.py`` file).
+
+ For a simple script, the specified code is simply executed in a fresh
+ module namespace. For a valid sys.path entry (typically a zipfile or
+ directory), the entry is first added to the beginning of ``sys.path``. The
+ function then looks for and executes a :mod:`__main__` module using the
+ updated path. Note that there is no special protection against invoking
+ an existing :mod:`__main__` entry located elsewhere on ``sys.path`` if
+ there is no such module at the specified location.
+
+ The optional dictionary argument *init_globals* may be used to pre-populate
+ the module's globals dictionary before the code is executed. The supplied
+ dictionary will not be modified. If any of the special global variables
+ below are defined in the supplied dictionary, those definitions are
+ overridden by :func:`run_path`.
+
+ The special global variables ``__name__``, ``__file__``, ``__loader__``
+ and ``__package__`` are set in the globals dictionary before the module
+ code is executed (Note that this is a minimal set of variables - other
+ variables may be set implicitly as an interpreter implementation detail).
+
+ ``__name__`` is set to *run_name* if this optional argument is not
+ :const:`None` and to ``'<run_path>'`` otherwise.
+
+ ``__file__`` is set to the name provided by the module loader. If the
+ loader does not make filename information available, this variable is set
+ to :const:`None`. For a simple script, this will be set to ``file_path``.
+
+ ``__loader__`` is set to the :pep:`302` module loader used to retrieve the
+ code for the module (This loader may be a wrapper around the standard
+ import mechanism). For a simple script, this will be set to :const:`None`.
+
+ ``__package__`` is set to ``__name__.rpartition('.')[0]``.
+
+ A number of alterations are also made to the :mod:`sys` module. Firstly,
+ ``sys.path`` may be altered as described above. ``sys.argv[0]`` is updated
+ with the value of ``file_path`` and ``sys.modules[__name__]`` is updated
+ with a temporary module object for the module being executed. All
+ modifications to items in :mod:`sys` are reverted before the function
+ returns.
+
+ Note that, unlike :func:`run_module`, the alterations made to :mod:`sys`
+ are not optional in this function as these adjustments are essential to
+ allowing the execution of sys.path entries. As the thread-safety
+ limitations still apply, use of this function in threaded code should be
+ either serialised with the import lock or delegated to a separate process.

+:mod:`sched` --- Event scheduler
+================================
+
+.. module:: sched
+ :synopsis: General purpose event scheduler.
+.. sectionauthor:: Moshe Zadka <[email protected]>
+
+.. index:: single: event scheduling
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/sched.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`sched` module defines a class which implements a general purpose event
+scheduler:
+
+.. class:: scheduler(timefunc, delayfunc)
+
+ The :class:`scheduler` class defines a generic interface to scheduling events.
+ It needs two functions to actually deal with the "outside world" --- *timefunc*
+ should be callable without arguments, and return a number (the "time", in any
+ units whatsoever). The *delayfunc* function should be callable with one
+ argument, compatible with the output of *timefunc*, and should delay that many
+ time units. *delayfunc* will also be called with the argument ``0`` after each
+ event is run to allow other threads an opportunity to run in multi-threaded
+ applications.
+
+Example::
+
+ >>> import sched, time
+ >>> s = sched.scheduler(time.time, time.sleep)
+ >>> def print_time(): print "From print_time", time.time()
+ ...
+ >>> def print_some_times():
+ ... print time.time()
+ ... s.enter(5, 1, print_time, ())
+ ... s.enter(10, 1, print_time, ())
+ ... s.run()
+ ... print time.time()
+ ...
+ >>> print_some_times()
+ 930343690.257
+ From print_time 930343695.274
+ From print_time 930343700.273
+ 930343700.276
+
+In multi-threaded environments, the :class:`scheduler` class has limitations
+with respect to thread-safety, inability to insert a new task before
+the one currently pending in a running scheduler, and holding up the main
+thread until the event queue is empty. Instead, the preferred approach
+is to use the :class:`threading.Timer` class instead.
+
+Example::
+
+ >>> import time
+ >>> from threading import Timer
+ >>> def print_time():
+ ... print "From print_time", time.time()
+ ...
+ >>> def print_some_times():
+ ... print time.time()
+ ... Timer(5, print_time, ()).start()
+ ... Timer(10, print_time, ()).start()
+ ... time.sleep(11) # sleep while time-delay events execute
+ ... print time.time()
+ ...
+ >>> print_some_times()
+ 930343690.257
+ From print_time 930343695.274
+ From print_time 930343700.273
+ 930343701.301
+
+
+.. _scheduler-objects:
+
+Scheduler Objects
+-----------------
+
+:class:`scheduler` instances have the following methods and attributes:
+
+
+.. method:: scheduler.enterabs(time, priority, action, argument)
+
+ Schedule a new event. The *time* argument should be a numeric type compatible
+ with the return value of the *timefunc* function passed to the constructor.
+ Events scheduled for the same *time* will be executed in the order of their
+ *priority*.
+
+ Executing the event means executing ``action(*argument)``. *argument* must be a
+ sequence holding the parameters for *action*.
+
+ Return value is an event which may be used for later cancellation of the event
+ (see :meth:`cancel`).
+
+
+.. method:: scheduler.enter(delay, priority, action, argument)
+
+ Schedule an event for *delay* more time units. Other than the relative time, the
+ other arguments, the effect and the return value are the same as those for
+ :meth:`enterabs`.
+
+
+.. method:: scheduler.cancel(event)
+
+ Remove the event from the queue. If *event* is not an event currently in the
+ queue, this method will raise a :exc:`ValueError`.
+
+
+.. method:: scheduler.empty()
+
+ Return true if the event queue is empty.
+
+
+.. method:: scheduler.run()
+
+ Run all scheduled events. This function will wait (using the :func:`delayfunc`
+ function passed to the constructor) for the next event, then execute it and so
+ on until there are no more scheduled events.
+
+ Either *action* or *delayfunc* can raise an exception. In either case, the
+ scheduler will maintain a consistent state and propagate the exception. If an
+ exception is raised by *action*, the event will not be attempted in future calls
+ to :meth:`run`.
+
+ If a sequence of events takes longer to run than the time available before the
+ next event, the scheduler will simply fall behind. No events will be dropped;
+ the calling code is responsible for canceling events which are no longer
+ pertinent.
+
+.. attribute:: scheduler.queue
+
+ Read-only attribute returning a list of upcoming events in the order they
+ will be run. Each event is shown as a :term:`named tuple` with the
+ following fields: time, priority, action, argument.

+============================================
+
+.. module:: ScrolledText
+ :platform: Tk
+ :synopsis: Text widget with a vertical scroll bar.
+.. sectionauthor:: Fred L. Drake, Jr. <[email protected]>
+
+
+The :mod:`ScrolledText` module provides a class of the same name which
+implements a basic text widget which has a vertical scroll bar configured to do
+the "right thing." Using the :class:`ScrolledText` class is a lot easier than
+setting up a text widget and scroll bar directly. The constructor is the same
+as that of the :class:`Tkinter.Text` class.
+
+.. note::
+
+ :mod:`ScrolledText` has been renamed to :mod:`tkinter.scrolledtext` in Python
+ 3. The :term:`2to3` tool will automatically adapt imports when converting
+ your sources to Python 3.
+
+The text widget and scrollbar are packed together in a :class:`Frame`, and the
+methods of the :class:`Grid` and :class:`Pack` geometry managers are acquired
+from the :class:`Frame` object. This allows the :class:`ScrolledText` widget to
+be used directly to achieve most normal geometry management behavior.
+
+Should more specific control be necessary, the following attributes are
+available:
+
+
+.. attribute:: ScrolledText.frame
+
+ The frame which surrounds the text and scroll bar widgets.
+
+
+.. attribute:: ScrolledText.vbar
+
+ The scroll bar widget.

+it also works for other file types (in particular, on Unix, it works on pipes).
+It cannot be used on regular files to determine whether a file has grown since
+it was last read.
+
+The module defines the following:
+
+
+.. exception:: error
+
+ The exception raised when an error occurs. The accompanying value is a pair
+ containing the numeric error code from :c:data:`errno` and the corresponding
+ string, as would be printed by the C function :c:func:`perror`.
+
+
+.. function:: epoll([sizehint=-1])
+
+ (Only supported on Linux 2.5.44 and newer.) Returns an edge polling object,
+ which can be used as Edge or Level Triggered interface for I/O events; see
+ section :ref:`epoll-objects` below for the methods supported by epolling
+ objects.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: poll()
+
+ (Not supported by all operating systems.) Returns a polling object, which
+ supports registering and unregistering file descriptors, and then polling them
+ for I/O events; see section :ref:`poll-objects` below for the methods supported
+ by polling objects.
+
+
+.. function:: kqueue()
+
+ (Only supported on BSD.) Returns a kernel queue object; see section
+ :ref:`kqueue-objects` below for the methods supported by kqueue objects.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: kevent(ident, filter=KQ_FILTER_READ, flags=KQ_EV_ADD, fflags=0, data=0, udata=0)
+
+ (Only supported on BSD.) Returns a kernel event object; see section
+ :ref:`kevent-objects` below for the methods supported by kevent objects.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: select(rlist, wlist, xlist[, timeout])
+
+ This is a straightforward interface to the Unix :c:func:`select` system call.
+ The first three arguments are sequences of 'waitable objects': either
+ integers representing file descriptors or objects with a parameterless method
+ named :meth:`fileno` returning such an integer:
+
+ * *rlist*: wait until ready for reading
+ * *wlist*: wait until ready for writing
+ * *xlist*: wait for an "exceptional condition" (see the manual page for what
+ your system considers such a condition)
+
+ Empty sequences are allowed, but acceptance of three empty sequences is
+ platform-dependent. (It is known to work on Unix but not on Windows.) The
+ optional *timeout* argument specifies a time-out as a floating point number
+ in seconds. When the *timeout* argument is omitted the function blocks until
+ at least one file descriptor is ready. A time-out value of zero specifies a
+ poll and never blocks.
+
+ The return value is a triple of lists of objects that are ready: subsets of the
+ first three arguments. When the time-out is reached without a file descriptor
+ becoming ready, three empty lists are returned.
+
+ .. index::
+ single: socket() (in module socket)
+ single: popen() (in module os)
+
+ Among the acceptable object types in the sequences are Python file objects (e.g.
+ ``sys.stdin``, or objects returned by :func:`open` or :func:`os.popen`), socket
+ objects returned by :func:`socket.socket`. You may also define a :dfn:`wrapper`
+ class yourself, as long as it has an appropriate :meth:`fileno` method (that
+ really returns a file descriptor, not just a random integer).
+
+ .. note::
+
+ .. index:: single: WinSock
+
+ File objects on Windows are not acceptable, but sockets are. On Windows,
+ the underlying :c:func:`select` function is provided by the WinSock
+ library, and does not handle file descriptors that don't originate from
+ WinSock.
+
+.. attribute:: select.PIPE_BUF
+
+ Files reported as ready for writing by :func:`select`, :func:`poll` or
+ similar interfaces in this module are guaranteed to not block on a write
+ of up to :const:`PIPE_BUF` bytes.
+ This value is guaranteed by POSIX to be at least 512. Availability: Unix.

+
+Polling Objects
+---------------
+
+The :c:func:`poll` system call, supported on most Unix systems, provides better
+scalability for network servers that service many, many clients at the same
+time. :c:func:`poll` scales better because the system call only requires listing
+the file descriptors of interest, while :c:func:`select` builds a bitmap, turns
+on bits for the fds of interest, and then afterward the whole bitmap has to be
+linearly scanned again. :c:func:`select` is O(highest file descriptor), while
+:c:func:`poll` is O(number of file descriptors).
+
+
+.. method:: poll.register(fd[, eventmask])
+
+ Register a file descriptor with the polling object. Future calls to the
+ :meth:`poll` method will then check whether the file descriptor has any pending
+ I/O events. *fd* can be either an integer, or an object with a :meth:`fileno`
+ method that returns an integer. File objects implement :meth:`fileno`, so they
+ can also be used as the argument.
+
+ *eventmask* is an optional bitmask describing the type of events you want to
+ check for, and can be a combination of the constants :const:`POLLIN`,
+ :const:`POLLPRI`, and :const:`POLLOUT`, described in the table below. If not
+ specified, the default value used will check for all 3 types of events.
+
+ +-------------------+------------------------------------------+
+ | Constant | Meaning |
+ +===================+==========================================+
+ | :const:`POLLIN` | There is data to read |

+ +-------------------+------------------------------------------+
+ | :const:`POLLHUP` | Hung up |
+ +-------------------+------------------------------------------+
+ | :const:`POLLNVAL` | Invalid request: descriptor not open |
+ +-------------------+------------------------------------------+
+
+ Registering a file descriptor that's already registered is not an error, and has
+ the same effect as registering the descriptor exactly once.
+
+
+.. method:: poll.modify(fd, eventmask)
+
+ Modifies an already registered fd. This has the same effect as
+ ``register(fd, eventmask)``. Attempting to modify a file descriptor
+ that was never registered causes an :exc:`IOError` exception with errno
+ :const:`ENOENT` to be raised.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. method:: poll.unregister(fd)
+
+ Remove a file descriptor being tracked by a polling object. Just like the
+ :meth:`register` method, *fd* can be an integer or an object with a
+ :meth:`fileno` method that returns an integer.
+
+ Attempting to remove a file descriptor that was never registered causes a
+ :exc:`KeyError` exception to be raised.
+
+
+.. method:: poll.poll([timeout])
+
+ Polls the set of registered file descriptors, and returns a possibly-empty list
+ containing ``(fd, event)`` 2-tuples for the descriptors that have events or
+ errors to report. *fd* is the file descriptor, and *event* is a bitmask with
+ bits set for the reported events for that descriptor --- :const:`POLLIN` for
+ waiting input, :const:`POLLOUT` to indicate that the descriptor can be written
+ to, and so forth. An empty list indicates that the call timed out and no file
+ descriptors had any events to report. If *timeout* is given, it specifies the
+ length of time in milliseconds which the system will wait for events before
+ returning. If *timeout* is omitted, negative, or :const:`None`, the call will
+ block until there is an event for this poll object.
+
+
+.. _kqueue-objects:
+
+Kqueue Objects

+
+.. method:: kqueue.close()
+
+ Close the control file descriptor of the kqueue object.

+
+ Create a kqueue object from a given file descriptor.
+
+
+.. method:: kqueue.control(changelist, max_events[, timeout=None]) -> eventlist
+
+ Low level interface to kevent
+
+ - changelist must be an iterable of kevent object or None

+
+:mod:`sets` --- Unordered collections of unique elements
+========================================================
+
+.. module:: sets
+ :synopsis: Implementation of sets of unique elements.
+ :deprecated:
+.. moduleauthor:: Greg V. Wilson <[email protected]>
+.. moduleauthor:: Alex Martelli <[email protected]>
+.. moduleauthor:: Guido van Rossum <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Raymond D. Hettinger <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+.. deprecated:: 2.6
+ The built-in :class:`set`/:class:`frozenset` types replace this module.
+
+The :mod:`sets` module provides classes for constructing and manipulating
+unordered collections of unique elements. Common uses include membership
+testing, removing duplicates from a sequence, and computing standard math
+operations on sets such as intersection, union, difference, and symmetric
+difference.
+
+Like other collections, sets support ``x in set``, ``len(set)``, and ``for x in
+set``. Being an unordered collection, sets do not record element position or
+order of insertion. Accordingly, sets do not support indexing, slicing, or
+other sequence-like behavior.
+
+Most set applications use the :class:`Set` class which provides every set method
+except for :meth:`__hash__`. For advanced applications requiring a hash method,
+the :class:`ImmutableSet` class adds a :meth:`__hash__` method but omits methods
+which alter the contents of the set. Both :class:`Set` and :class:`ImmutableSet`
+derive from :class:`BaseSet`, an abstract class useful for determining whether
+something is a set: ``isinstance(obj, BaseSet)``.
+
+The set classes are implemented using dictionaries. Accordingly, the
+requirements for set elements are the same as those for dictionary keys; namely,
+that the element defines both :meth:`__eq__` and :meth:`__hash__`. As a result,
+sets cannot contain mutable elements such as lists or dictionaries. However,
+they can contain immutable collections such as tuples or instances of
+:class:`ImmutableSet`. For convenience in implementing sets of sets, inner sets
+are automatically converted to immutable form, for example,
+``Set([Set(['dog'])])`` is transformed to ``Set([ImmutableSet(['dog'])])``.
+
+
+.. class:: Set([iterable])
+
+ Constructs a new empty :class:`Set` object. If the optional *iterable*
+ parameter is supplied, updates the set with elements obtained from iteration.
+ All of the elements in *iterable* should be immutable or be transformable to an
+ immutable using the protocol described in section :ref:`immutable-transforms`.
+
+
+.. class:: ImmutableSet([iterable])
+
+ Constructs a new empty :class:`ImmutableSet` object. If the optional *iterable*
+ parameter is supplied, updates the set with elements obtained from iteration.
+ All of the elements in *iterable* should be immutable or be transformable to an
+ immutable using the protocol described in section :ref:`immutable-transforms`.
+
+ Because :class:`ImmutableSet` objects provide a :meth:`__hash__` method, they
+ can be used as set elements or as dictionary keys. :class:`ImmutableSet`
+ objects do not have methods for adding or removing elements, so all of the
+ elements must be known when the constructor is called.
+
+
+.. _set-objects:
+
+Set Objects
+-----------
+
+Instances of :class:`Set` and :class:`ImmutableSet` both provide the following
+operations:
+
++-------------------------------+------------+---------------------------------+
+| Operation | Equivalent | Result |
++===============================+============+=================================+
+| ``len(s)`` | | cardinality of set *s* |
++-------------------------------+------------+---------------------------------+
+| ``x in s`` | | test *x* for membership in *s* |
++-------------------------------+------------+---------------------------------+
+| ``x not in s`` | | test *x* for non-membership in |
+| | | *s* |
++-------------------------------+------------+---------------------------------+
+| ``s.issubset(t)`` | ``s <= t`` | test whether every element in |
+| | | *s* is in *t* |
++-------------------------------+------------+---------------------------------+
+| ``s.issuperset(t)`` | ``s >= t`` | test whether every element in |
+| | | *t* is in *s* |
++-------------------------------+------------+---------------------------------+
+| ``s.union(t)`` | ``s | t`` | new set with elements from both |
+| | | *s* and *t* |
++-------------------------------+------------+---------------------------------+
+| ``s.intersection(t)`` | ``s & t`` | new set with elements common to |
+| | | *s* and *t* |
++-------------------------------+------------+---------------------------------+
+| ``s.difference(t)`` | ``s - t`` | new set with elements in *s* |
+| | | but not in *t* |
++-------------------------------+------------+---------------------------------+
+| ``s.symmetric_difference(t)`` | ``s ^ t`` | new set with elements in either |
+| | | *s* or *t* but not both |
++-------------------------------+------------+---------------------------------+
+| ``s.copy()`` | | new set with a shallow copy of |
+| | | *s* |
++-------------------------------+------------+---------------------------------+
+
+Note, the non-operator versions of :meth:`union`, :meth:`intersection`,
+:meth:`difference`, and :meth:`symmetric_difference` will accept any iterable as
+an argument. In contrast, their operator based counterparts require their
+arguments to be sets. This precludes error-prone constructions like
+``Set('abc') & 'cbs'`` in favor of the more readable
+``Set('abc').intersection('cbs')``.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.3.1
+ Formerly all arguments were required to be sets.
+
+In addition, both :class:`Set` and :class:`ImmutableSet` support set to set
+comparisons. Two sets are equal if and only if every element of each set is
+contained in the other (each is a subset of the other). A set is less than
+another set if and only if the first set is a proper subset of the second set
+(is a subset, but is not equal). A set is greater than another set if and only
+if the first set is a proper superset of the second set (is a superset, but is
+not equal).
+
+The subset and equality comparisons do not generalize to a complete ordering
+function. For example, any two disjoint sets are not equal and are not subsets
+of each other, so *all* of the following return ``False``: ``a<b``, ``a==b``,
+or ``a>b``. Accordingly, sets do not implement the :meth:`__cmp__` method.
+
+Since sets only define partial ordering (subset relationships), the output of
+the :meth:`list.sort` method is undefined for lists of sets.
+
+The following table lists operations available in :class:`ImmutableSet` but not
+found in :class:`Set`:
+

+| ``s.intersection_update(t)`` | *s* &= *t* | return set *s* keeping only |
+| | | elements also found in *t* |
++--------------------------------------+-------------+---------------------------------+
+| ``s.difference_update(t)`` | *s* -= *t* | return set *s* after removing |
+| | | elements found in *t* |
++--------------------------------------+-------------+---------------------------------+
+| ``s.symmetric_difference_update(t)`` | *s* ^= *t* | return set *s* with elements |
+| | | from *s* or *t* but not both |
++--------------------------------------+-------------+---------------------------------+
+| ``s.add(x)`` | | add element *x* to set *s* |
++--------------------------------------+-------------+---------------------------------+
+| ``s.remove(x)`` | | remove *x* from set *s*; raises |
+| | | :exc:`KeyError` if not present |
++--------------------------------------+-------------+---------------------------------+
+| ``s.discard(x)`` | | removes *x* from set *s* if |
+| | | present |
++--------------------------------------+-------------+---------------------------------+
+| ``s.pop()`` | | remove and return an arbitrary |
+| | | element from *s*; raises |
+| | | :exc:`KeyError` if empty |
++--------------------------------------+-------------+---------------------------------+
+| ``s.clear()`` | | remove all elements from set |
+| | | *s* |
++--------------------------------------+-------------+---------------------------------+
+
+Note, the non-operator versions of :meth:`update`, :meth:`intersection_update`,
+:meth:`difference_update`, and :meth:`symmetric_difference_update` will accept
+any iterable as an argument.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.3.1
+ Formerly all arguments were required to be sets.
+
+Also note, the module also includes a :meth:`union_update` method which is an
+alias for :meth:`update`. The method is included for backwards compatibility.
+Programmers should prefer the :meth:`update` method because it is supported by
+the built-in :class:`set()` and :class:`frozenset()` types.
+
+
+.. _set-example:
+
+Example
+-------
+
+ >>> from sets import Set
+ >>> engineers = Set(['John', 'Jane', 'Jack', 'Janice'])
+ >>> programmers = Set(['Jack', 'Sam', 'Susan', 'Janice'])
+ >>> managers = Set(['Jane', 'Jack', 'Susan', 'Zack'])
+ >>> employees = engineers | programmers | managers # union
+ >>> engineering_management = engineers & managers # intersection
+ >>> fulltime_management = managers - engineers - programmers # difference
+ >>> engineers.add('Marvin') # add element
+ >>> print engineers # doctest: +SKIP
+ Set(['Jane', 'Marvin', 'Janice', 'John', 'Jack'])
+ >>> employees.issuperset(engineers) # superset test
+ False
+ >>> employees.update(engineers) # update from another set
+ >>> employees.issuperset(engineers)
+ True
+ >>> for group in [engineers, programmers, managers, employees]: # doctest: +SKIP

+ Set(['Janice', 'Jack', 'Sam'])
+ Set(['Jane', 'Zack', 'Jack'])
+ Set(['Jack', 'Sam', 'Jane', 'Marvin', 'Janice', 'John', 'Zack'])
+
+
+.. _immutable-transforms:
+
+Protocol for automatic conversion to immutable
+----------------------------------------------
+
+Sets can only contain immutable elements. For convenience, mutable :class:`Set`
+objects are automatically copied to an :class:`ImmutableSet` before being added
+as a set element.
+
+The mechanism is to always add a :term:`hashable` element, or if it is not
+hashable, the element is checked to see if it has an :meth:`__as_immutable__`
+method which returns an immutable equivalent.
+
+Since :class:`Set` objects have a :meth:`__as_immutable__` method returning an
+instance of :class:`ImmutableSet`, it is possible to construct sets of sets.
+
+A similar mechanism is needed by the :meth:`__contains__` and :meth:`remove`
+methods which need to hash an element to check for membership in a set. Those
+methods check an element for hashability and, if not, check for a
+:meth:`__as_temporarily_immutable__` method which returns the element wrapped by
+a class that provides temporary methods for :meth:`__hash__`, :meth:`__eq__`,
+and :meth:`__ne__`.
+
+The alternate mechanism spares the need to build a separate copy of the original
+mutable object.
+
+:class:`Set` objects implement the :meth:`__as_temporarily_immutable__` method
+which returns the :class:`Set` object wrapped by a new class
+:class:`_TemporarilyImmutableSet`.
+
+The two mechanisms for adding hashability are normally invisible to the user;
+however, a conflict can arise in a multi-threaded environment where one thread
+is updating a set while another has temporarily wrapped it in
+:class:`_TemporarilyImmutableSet`. In other words, sets of mutable sets are not
+thread-safe.
+
+
+.. _comparison-to-builtin-set:
+
+Comparison to the built-in :class:`set` types
+---------------------------------------------
+
+The built-in :class:`set` and :class:`frozenset` types were designed based on
+lessons learned from the :mod:`sets` module. The key differences are:
+
+* :class:`Set` and :class:`ImmutableSet` were renamed to :class:`set` and
+ :class:`frozenset`.
+
+* There is no equivalent to :class:`BaseSet`. Instead, use ``isinstance(x,
+ (set, frozenset))``.
+
+* The hash algorithm for the built-ins performs significantly better (fewer
+ collisions) for most datasets.
+
+* The built-in versions have more space efficient pickles.
+
+* The built-in versions do not have a :meth:`union_update` method. Instead, use
+ the :meth:`update` method which is equivalent.
+
+* The built-in versions do not have a ``_repr(sorted=True)`` method.
+ Instead, use the built-in :func:`repr` and :func:`sorted` functions:
+ ``repr(sorted(s))``.
+
+* The built-in version does not have a protocol for automatic conversion to
+ immutable. Many found this feature to be confusing and no one in the community
+ reported having found real uses for it.

+:mod:`sgmllib` --- Simple SGML parser
+=====================================
+
+.. module:: sgmllib
+ :synopsis: Only as much of an SGML parser as needed to parse HTML.
+ :deprecated:
+
+.. deprecated:: 2.6
+ The :mod:`sgmllib` module has been removed in Python 3.
+
+.. index:: single: SGML
+
+This module defines a class :class:`SGMLParser` which serves as the basis for
+parsing text files formatted in SGML (Standard Generalized Mark-up Language).
+In fact, it does not provide a full SGML parser --- it only parses SGML insofar
+as it is used by HTML, and the module only exists as a base for the
+:mod:`htmllib` module. Another HTML parser which supports XHTML and offers a
+somewhat different interface is available in the :mod:`HTMLParser` module.
+
+
+.. class:: SGMLParser()
+
+ The :class:`SGMLParser` class is instantiated without arguments. The parser is
+ hardcoded to recognize the following constructs:
+
+ * Opening and closing tags of the form ``<tag attr="value" ...>`` and
+ ``</tag>``, respectively.
+
+ * Numeric character references of the form ``&#name;``.
+
+ * Entity references of the form ``&name;``.
+
+ * SGML comments of the form ``<!--text-->``. Note that spaces, tabs, and
+ newlines are allowed between the trailing ``>`` and the immediately preceding
+ ``--``.
+
+A single exception is defined as well:
+
+
+.. exception:: SGMLParseError
+
+ Exception raised by the :class:`SGMLParser` class when it encounters an error
+ while parsing.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.1
+
+:class:`SGMLParser` instances have the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: SGMLParser.reset()
+
+ Reset the instance. Loses all unprocessed data. This is called implicitly at
+ instantiation time.
+
+
+.. method:: SGMLParser.setnomoretags()
+
+ Stop processing tags. Treat all following input as literal input (CDATA).
+ (This is only provided so the HTML tag ``<PLAINTEXT>`` can be implemented.)
+
+
+.. method:: SGMLParser.setliteral()
+
+ Enter literal mode (CDATA mode).
+
+
+.. method:: SGMLParser.feed(data)
+
+ Feed some text to the parser. It is processed insofar as it consists of
+ complete elements; incomplete data is buffered until more data is fed or
+ :meth:`close` is called.
+
+
+.. method:: SGMLParser.close()
+
+ Force processing of all buffered data as if it were followed by an end-of-file
+ mark. This method may be redefined by a derived class to define additional
+ processing at the end of the input, but the redefined version should always call
+ :meth:`close`.
+
+
+.. method:: SGMLParser.get_starttag_text()
+
+ Return the text of the most recently opened start tag. This should not normally
+ be needed for structured processing, but may be useful in dealing with HTML "as
+ deployed" or for re-generating input with minimal changes (whitespace between
+ attributes can be preserved, etc.).
+
+
+.. method:: SGMLParser.handle_starttag(tag, method, attributes)
+
+ This method is called to handle start tags for which either a :meth:`start_tag`
+ or :meth:`do_tag` method has been defined. The *tag* argument is the name of
+ the tag converted to lower case, and the *method* argument is the bound method
+ which should be used to support semantic interpretation of the start tag. The
+ *attributes* argument is a list of ``(name, value)`` pairs containing the
+ attributes found inside the tag's ``<>`` brackets.
+
+ The *name* has been translated to lower case. Double quotes and backslashes in
+ the *value* have been interpreted, as well as known character references and
+ known entity references terminated by a semicolon (normally, entity references
+ can be terminated by any non-alphanumerical character, but this would break the
+ very common case of ``<A HREF="url?spam=1&eggs=2">`` when ``eggs`` is a valid
+ entity name).
+
+ For instance, for the tag ``<A HREF="http://www.cwi.nl/">``, this method would
+ be called as ``unknown_starttag('a', [('href', 'http://www.cwi.nl/')])``. The
+ base implementation simply calls *method* with *attributes* as the only
+ argument.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+ Handling of entity and character references within attribute values.
+
+
+.. method:: SGMLParser.handle_endtag(tag, method)
+
+ This method is called to handle endtags for which an :meth:`end_tag` method has
+ been defined. The *tag* argument is the name of the tag converted to lower
+ case, and the *method* argument is the bound method which should be used to
+ support semantic interpretation of the end tag. If no :meth:`end_tag` method is
+ defined for the closing element, this handler is not called. The base
+ implementation simply calls *method*.
+
+
+.. method:: SGMLParser.handle_data(data)
+
+ This method is called to process arbitrary data. It is intended to be
+ overridden by a derived class; the base class implementation does nothing.
+
+
+.. method:: SGMLParser.handle_charref(ref)
+
+ This method is called to process a character reference of the form ``&#ref;``.
+ The base implementation uses :meth:`convert_charref` to convert the reference to
+ a string. If that method returns a string, it is passed to :meth:`handle_data`,
+ otherwise ``unknown_charref(ref)`` is called to handle the error.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ Use :meth:`convert_charref` instead of hard-coding the conversion.
+
+
+.. method:: SGMLParser.convert_charref(ref)
+
+ Convert a character reference to a string, or ``None``. *ref* is the reference
+ passed in as a string. In the base implementation, *ref* must be a decimal
+ number in the range 0-255. It converts the code point found using the
+ :meth:`convert_codepoint` method. If *ref* is invalid or out of range, this
+ method returns ``None``. This method is called by the default
+ :meth:`handle_charref` implementation and by the attribute value parser.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. method:: SGMLParser.convert_codepoint(codepoint)
+
+ Convert a codepoint to a :class:`str` value. Encodings can be handled here if
+ appropriate, though the rest of :mod:`sgmllib` is oblivious on this matter.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. method:: SGMLParser.handle_entityref(ref)
+
+ This method is called to process a general entity reference of the form
+ ``&ref;`` where *ref* is an general entity reference. It converts *ref* by
+ passing it to :meth:`convert_entityref`. If a translation is returned, it calls
+ the method :meth:`handle_data` with the translation; otherwise, it calls the
+ method ``unknown_entityref(ref)``. The default :attr:`entitydefs` defines
+ translations for ``&``, ``&apos``, ``>``, ``<``, and ``"``.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ Use :meth:`convert_entityref` instead of hard-coding the conversion.
+
+
+.. method:: SGMLParser.convert_entityref(ref)
+
+ Convert a named entity reference to a :class:`str` value, or ``None``. The
+ resulting value will not be parsed. *ref* will be only the name of the entity.
+ The default implementation looks for *ref* in the instance (or class) variable
+ :attr:`entitydefs` which should be a mapping from entity names to corresponding
+ translations. If no translation is available for *ref*, this method returns
+ ``None``. This method is called by the default :meth:`handle_entityref`
+ implementation and by the attribute value parser.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. method:: SGMLParser.handle_comment(comment)
+
+ This method is called when a comment is encountered. The *comment* argument is
+ a string containing the text between the ``<!--`` and ``-->`` delimiters, but
+ not the delimiters themselves. For example, the comment ``<!--text-->`` will
+ cause this method to be called with the argument ``'text'``. The default method
+ does nothing.
+
+
+.. method:: SGMLParser.handle_decl(data)
+
+ Method called when an SGML declaration is read by the parser. In practice, the
+ ``DOCTYPE`` declaration is the only thing observed in HTML, but the parser does
+ not discriminate among different (or broken) declarations. Internal subsets in
+ a ``DOCTYPE`` declaration are not supported. The *data* parameter will be the
+ entire contents of the declaration inside the ``<!``...\ ``>`` markup. The
+ default implementation does nothing.
+
+
+.. method:: SGMLParser.report_unbalanced(tag)
+
+ This method is called when an end tag is found which does not correspond to any
+ open element.
+
+
+.. method:: SGMLParser.unknown_starttag(tag, attributes)
+
+ This method is called to process an unknown start tag. It is intended to be
+ overridden by a derived class; the base class implementation does nothing.
+
+
+.. method:: SGMLParser.unknown_endtag(tag)
+
+ This method is called to process an unknown end tag. It is intended to be
+ overridden by a derived class; the base class implementation does nothing.
+
+
+.. method:: SGMLParser.unknown_charref(ref)
+
+ This method is called to process unresolvable numeric character references.
+ Refer to :meth:`handle_charref` to determine what is handled by default. It is
+ intended to be overridden by a derived class; the base class implementation does
+ nothing.
+
+
+.. method:: SGMLParser.unknown_entityref(ref)
+
+ This method is called to process an unknown entity reference. It is intended to
+ be overridden by a derived class; the base class implementation does nothing.
+
+Apart from overriding or extending the methods listed above, derived classes may
+also define methods of the following form to define processing of specific tags.
+Tag names in the input stream are case independent; the *tag* occurring in
+method names must be in lower case:
+
+
+.. method:: SGMLParser.start_tag(attributes)
+ :noindex:
+
+ This method is called to process an opening tag *tag*. It has preference over
+ :meth:`do_tag`. The *attributes* argument has the same meaning as described for
+ :meth:`handle_starttag` above.
+
+
+.. method:: SGMLParser.do_tag(attributes)
+ :noindex:
+
+ This method is called to process an opening tag *tag* for which no
+ :meth:`start_tag` method is defined. The *attributes* argument has the same
+ meaning as described for :meth:`handle_starttag` above.
+
+
+.. method:: SGMLParser.end_tag()
+ :noindex:
+
+ This method is called to process a closing tag *tag*.
+
+Note that the parser maintains a stack of open elements for which no end tag has
+been found yet. Only tags processed by :meth:`start_tag` are pushed on this
+stack. Definition of an :meth:`end_tag` method is optional for these tags. For
+tags processed by :meth:`do_tag` or by :meth:`unknown_tag`, no :meth:`end_tag`
+method must be defined; if defined, it will not be used. If both
+:meth:`start_tag` and :meth:`do_tag` methods exist for a tag, the
+:meth:`start_tag` method takes precedence.

+ single: Secure Hash Algorithm
+ single: checksum; SHA
+
+This module implements the interface to NIST's secure hash algorithm, known as
+SHA-1. SHA-1 is an improved version of the original SHA hash algorithm. It is
+used in the same way as the :mod:`md5` module: use :func:`new` to create an sha
+object, then feed this object with arbitrary strings using the :meth:`update`
+method, and at any point you can ask it for the :dfn:`digest` of the
+concatenation of the strings fed to it so far. SHA-1 digests are 160 bits
+instead of MD5's 128 bits.
+
+
+.. function:: new([string])
+
+ Return a new sha object. If *string* is present, the method call
+ ``update(string)`` is made.
+
+The following values are provided as constants in the module and as attributes
+of the sha objects returned by :func:`new`:
+
+
+.. data:: blocksize
+
+ Size of the blocks fed into the hash function; this is always ``1``. This size
+ is used to allow an arbitrary string to be hashed.
+
+
+.. data:: digest_size
+
+ The size of the resulting digest in bytes. This is always ``20``.
+
+An sha object has the same methods as md5 objects:
+
+
+.. method:: sha.update(arg)
+
+ Update the sha object with the string *arg*. Repeated calls are equivalent to a
+ single call with the concatenation of all the arguments: ``m.update(a);
+ m.update(b)`` is equivalent to ``m.update(a+b)``.
+
+
+.. method:: sha.digest()
+
+ Return the digest of the strings passed to the :meth:`update` method so far.
+ This is a 20-byte string which may contain non-ASCII characters, including null
+ bytes.
+
+
+.. method:: sha.hexdigest()
+
+ Like :meth:`digest` except the digest is returned as a string of length 40,
+ containing only hexadecimal digits. This may be used to exchange the value
+ safely in email or other non-binary environments.
+
+
+.. method:: sha.copy()
+
+ Return a copy ("clone") of the sha object. This can be used to efficiently
+ compute the digests of strings that share a common initial substring.

+:mod:`shelve` --- Python object persistence
+===========================================
+
+.. module:: shelve
+ :synopsis: Python object persistence.
+
+
+.. index:: module: pickle
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/shelve.py`
+
+--------------
+
+A "shelf" is a persistent, dictionary-like object. The difference with "dbm"
+databases is that the values (not the keys!) in a shelf can be essentially
+arbitrary Python objects --- anything that the :mod:`pickle` module can handle.
+This includes most class instances, recursive data types, and objects containing
+lots of shared sub-objects. The keys are ordinary strings.
+
+
+.. function:: open(filename, flag='c', protocol=None, writeback=False)
+
+ Open a persistent dictionary. The filename specified is the base filename for
+ the underlying database. As a side-effect, an extension may be added to the
+ filename and more than one file may be created. By default, the underlying
+ database file is opened for reading and writing. The optional *flag* parameter
+ has the same interpretation as the *flag* parameter of :func:`anydbm.open`.
+
+ By default, version 0 pickles are used to serialize values. The version of the
+ pickle protocol can be specified with the *protocol* parameter.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ The *protocol* parameter was added.
+
+ Because of Python semantics, a shelf cannot know when a mutable
+ persistent-dictionary entry is modified. By default modified objects are
+ written *only* when assigned to the shelf (see :ref:`shelve-example`). If the
+ optional *writeback* parameter is set to *True*, all entries accessed are also
+ cached in memory, and written back on :meth:`~Shelf.sync` and
+ :meth:`~Shelf.close`; this can make it handier to mutate mutable entries in
+ the persistent dictionary, but, if many entries are accessed, it can consume
+ vast amounts of memory for the cache, and it can make the close operation
+ very slow since all accessed entries are written back (there is no way to
+ determine which accessed entries are mutable, nor which ones were actually
+ mutated).
+
+ Like file objects, shelve objects should be closed explicitly to ensure
+ that the persistent data is flushed to disk.
+
+ Since the :mod:`shelve` module stores objects using :mod:`pickle`, the same
+ security precautions apply. Accordingly, you should avoid loading a shelf
+ from an untrusted source.
+
+Shelf objects support all methods supported by dictionaries. This eases the
+transition from dictionary based scripts to those requiring persistent storage.
+
+Two additional methods are supported:
+
+.. method:: Shelf.sync()
+
+ Write back all entries in the cache if the shelf was opened with *writeback*
+ set to :const:`True`. Also empty the cache and synchronize the persistent
+ dictionary on disk, if feasible. This is called automatically when the shelf
+ is closed with :meth:`close`.
+
+.. method:: Shelf.close()
+
+ Synchronize and close the persistent *dict* object. Operations on a closed
+ shelf will fail with a :exc:`ValueError`.
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ `Persistent dictionary recipe <http://code.activestate.com/recipes/576642/>`_
+ with widely supported storage formats and having the speed of native
+ dictionaries.
+
+
+Restrictions
+------------
+
+ .. index::
+ module: dbm
+ module: gdbm
+ module: bsddb
+
+* The choice of which database package will be used (such as :mod:`dbm`,
+ :mod:`gdbm` or :mod:`bsddb`) depends on which interface is available. Therefore
+ it is not safe to open the database directly using :mod:`dbm`. The database is
+ also (unfortunately) subject to the limitations of :mod:`dbm`, if it is used ---
+ this means that (the pickled representation of) the objects stored in the
+ database should be fairly small, and in rare cases key collisions may cause the
+ database to refuse updates.
+
+* The :mod:`shelve` module does not support *concurrent* read/write access to
+ shelved objects. (Multiple simultaneous read accesses are safe.) When a
+ program has a shelf open for writing, no other program should have it open for
+ reading or writing. Unix file locking can be used to solve this, but this
+ differs across Unix versions and requires knowledge about the database
+ implementation used.
+
+
+.. class:: Shelf(dict, protocol=None, writeback=False)
+
+ A subclass of :class:`UserDict.DictMixin` which stores pickled values in the
+ *dict* object.
+
+ By default, version 0 pickles are used to serialize values. The version of the
+ pickle protocol can be specified with the *protocol* parameter. See the
+ :mod:`pickle` documentation for a discussion of the pickle protocols.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ The *protocol* parameter was added.
+
+ If the *writeback* parameter is ``True``, the object will hold a cache of all
+ entries accessed and write them back to the *dict* at sync and close times.
+ This allows natural operations on mutable entries, but can consume much more
+ memory and make sync and close take a long time.
+
+
+.. class:: BsdDbShelf(dict, protocol=None, writeback=False)
+
+ A subclass of :class:`Shelf` which exposes :meth:`first`, :meth:`!next`,
+ :meth:`previous`, :meth:`last` and :meth:`set_location` which are available in
+ the :mod:`bsddb` module but not in other database modules. The *dict* object
+ passed to the constructor must support those methods. This is generally
+ accomplished by calling one of :func:`bsddb.hashopen`, :func:`bsddb.btopen` or
+ :func:`bsddb.rnopen`. The optional *protocol* and *writeback* parameters have
+ the same interpretation as for the :class:`Shelf` class.
+
+
+.. class:: DbfilenameShelf(filename, flag='c', protocol=None, writeback=False)
+
+ A subclass of :class:`Shelf` which accepts a *filename* instead of a dict-like
+ object. The underlying file will be opened using :func:`anydbm.open`. By
+ default, the file will be created and opened for both read and write. The
+ optional *flag* parameter has the same interpretation as for the :func:`.open`
+ function. The optional *protocol* and *writeback* parameters have the same
+ interpretation as for the :class:`Shelf` class.
+
+
+.. _shelve-example:
+
+Example
+-------
+
+To summarize the interface (``key`` is a string, ``data`` is an arbitrary
+object)::
+
+ import shelve
+
+ d = shelve.open(filename) # open -- file may get suffix added by low-level
+ # library
+
+ d[key] = data # store data at key (overwrites old data if
+ # using an existing key)
+ data = d[key] # retrieve a COPY of data at key (raise KeyError if no
+ # such key)
+ del d[key] # delete data stored at key (raises KeyError
+ # if no such key)
+ flag = d.has_key(key) # true if the key exists
+ klist = d.keys() # a list of all existing keys (slow!)
+
+ # as d was opened WITHOUT writeback=True, beware:
+ d['xx'] = range(4) # this works as expected, but...
+ d['xx'].append(5) # *this doesn't!* -- d['xx'] is STILL range(4)!
+
+ # having opened d without writeback=True, you need to code carefully:
+ temp = d['xx'] # extracts the copy
+ temp.append(5) # mutates the copy
+ d['xx'] = temp # stores the copy right back, to persist it
+
+ # or, d=shelve.open(filename,writeback=True) would let you just code
+ # d['xx'].append(5) and have it work as expected, BUT it would also
+ # consume more memory and make the d.close() operation slower.

+syntaxes resembling that of the Unix shell. This will often be useful for
+writing minilanguages, (for example, in run control files for Python
+applications) or for parsing quoted strings.
+
+Prior to Python 2.7.3, this module did not support Unicode input.
+
+The :mod:`shlex` module defines the following functions:
+
+
+.. function:: split(s[, comments[, posix]])
+
+ Split the string *s* using shell-like syntax. If *comments* is :const:`False`
+ (the default), the parsing of comments in the given string will be disabled
+ (setting the :attr:`commenters` attribute of the :class:`shlex` instance to
+ the empty string). This function operates in POSIX mode by default, but uses
+ non-POSIX mode if the *posix* argument is false.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ Added the *posix* parameter.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Since the :func:`split` function instantiates a :class:`shlex` instance, passing
+ ``None`` for *s* will read the string to split from standard input.
+
+The :mod:`shlex` module defines the following class:
+
+
+.. class:: shlex([instream[, infile[, posix]]])
+
+ A :class:`shlex` instance or subclass instance is a lexical analyzer object.
+ The initialization argument, if present, specifies where to read characters
+ from. It must be a file-/stream-like object with :meth:`read` and
+ :meth:`readline` methods, or a string (strings are accepted since Python 2.3).
+ If no argument is given, input will be taken from ``sys.stdin``. The second
+ optional argument is a filename string, which sets the initial value of the
+ :attr:`infile` attribute. If the *instream* argument is omitted or equal to
+ ``sys.stdin``, this second argument defaults to "stdin". The *posix* argument
+ was introduced in Python 2.3, and defines the operational mode. When *posix* is
+ not true (default), the :class:`shlex` instance will operate in compatibility
+ mode. When operating in POSIX mode, :class:`shlex` will try to be as close as
+ possible to the POSIX shell parsing rules.
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ Module :mod:`ConfigParser`
+ Parser for configuration files similar to the Windows :file:`.ini` files.
+
+
+.. _shlex-objects:
+
+shlex Objects
+-------------
+
+A :class:`shlex` instance has the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: shlex.get_token()
+
+ Return a token. If tokens have been stacked using :meth:`push_token`, pop a
+ token off the stack. Otherwise, read one from the input stream. If reading
+ encounters an immediate end-of-file, :attr:`self.eof` is returned (the empty
+ string (``''``) in non-POSIX mode, and ``None`` in POSIX mode).
+
+
+.. method:: shlex.push_token(str)
+
+ Push the argument onto the token stack.
+
+
+.. method:: shlex.read_token()
+
+ Read a raw token. Ignore the pushback stack, and do not interpret source
+ requests. (This is not ordinarily a useful entry point, and is documented here
+ only for the sake of completeness.)
+
+
+.. method:: shlex.sourcehook(filename)
+
+ When :class:`shlex` detects a source request (see :attr:`source` below) this
+ method is given the following token as argument, and expected to return a tuple
+ consisting of a filename and an open file-like object.
+
+ Normally, this method first strips any quotes off the argument. If the result
+ is an absolute pathname, or there was no previous source request in effect, or
+ the previous source was a stream (such as ``sys.stdin``), the result is left
+ alone. Otherwise, if the result is a relative pathname, the directory part of
+ the name of the file immediately before it on the source inclusion stack is
+ prepended (this behavior is like the way the C preprocessor handles ``#include
+ "file.h"``).
+
+ The result of the manipulations is treated as a filename, and returned as the
+ first component of the tuple, with :func:`open` called on it to yield the second
+ component. (Note: this is the reverse of the order of arguments in instance
+ initialization!)
+
+ This hook is exposed so that you can use it to implement directory search paths,
+ addition of file extensions, and other namespace hacks. There is no
+ corresponding 'close' hook, but a shlex instance will call the :meth:`close`
+ method of the sourced input stream when it returns EOF.
+
+ For more explicit control of source stacking, use the :meth:`push_source` and
+ :meth:`pop_source` methods.
+
+
+.. method:: shlex.push_source(stream[, filename])
+
+ Push an input source stream onto the input stack. If the filename argument is
+ specified it will later be available for use in error messages. This is the
+ same method used internally by the :meth:`sourcehook` method.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.1
+
+
+.. method:: shlex.pop_source()
+
+ Pop the last-pushed input source from the input stack. This is the same method
+ used internally when the lexer reaches EOF on a stacked input stream.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.1
+
+
+.. method:: shlex.error_leader([file[, line]])
+
+ This method generates an error message leader in the format of a Unix C compiler
+ error label; the format is ``'"%s", line %d: '``, where the ``%s`` is replaced
+ with the name of the current source file and the ``%d`` with the current input
+ line number (the optional arguments can be used to override these).
+
+ This convenience is provided to encourage :mod:`shlex` users to generate error
+ messages in the standard, parseable format understood by Emacs and other Unix
+ tools.
+
+Instances of :class:`shlex` subclasses have some public instance variables which
+either control lexical analysis or can be used for debugging:
+
+
+.. attribute:: shlex.commenters
+
+ The string of characters that are recognized as comment beginners. All
+ characters from the comment beginner to end of line are ignored. Includes just
+ ``'#'`` by default.
+
+
+.. attribute:: shlex.wordchars
+
+ The string of characters that will accumulate into multi-character tokens. By
+ default, includes all ASCII alphanumerics and underscore.
+
+
+.. attribute:: shlex.whitespace
+
+ Characters that will be considered whitespace and skipped. Whitespace bounds
+ tokens. By default, includes space, tab, linefeed and carriage-return.
+
+
+.. attribute:: shlex.escape
+
+ Characters that will be considered as escape. This will be only used in POSIX
+ mode, and includes just ``'\'`` by default.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. attribute:: shlex.quotes
+
+ Characters that will be considered string quotes. The token accumulates until
+ the same quote is encountered again (thus, different quote types protect each
+ other as in the shell.) By default, includes ASCII single and double quotes.
+
+
+.. attribute:: shlex.escapedquotes
+
+ Characters in :attr:`quotes` that will interpret escape characters defined in
+ :attr:`escape`. This is only used in POSIX mode, and includes just ``'"'`` by
+ default.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. attribute:: shlex.whitespace_split
+
+ If ``True``, tokens will only be split in whitespaces. This is useful, for
+ example, for parsing command lines with :class:`shlex`, getting tokens in a
+ similar way to shell arguments.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. attribute:: shlex.infile
+
+ The name of the current input file, as initially set at class instantiation time
+ or stacked by later source requests. It may be useful to examine this when
+ constructing error messages.
+
+
+.. attribute:: shlex.instream
+
+ The input stream from which this :class:`shlex` instance is reading characters.
+
+
+.. attribute:: shlex.source
+
+ This attribute is ``None`` by default. If you assign a string to it, that
+ string will be recognized as a lexical-level inclusion request similar to the
+ ``source`` keyword in various shells. That is, the immediately following token
+ will opened as a filename and input taken from that stream until EOF, at which
+ point the :meth:`close` method of that stream will be called and the input
+ source will again become the original input stream. Source requests may be
+ stacked any number of levels deep.
+
+
+.. attribute:: shlex.debug
+
+ If this attribute is numeric and ``1`` or more, a :class:`shlex` instance will
+ print verbose progress output on its behavior. If you need to use this, you can
+ read the module source code to learn the details.
+
+
+.. attribute:: shlex.lineno
+
+ Source line number (count of newlines seen so far plus one).
+
+
+.. attribute:: shlex.token
+
+ The token buffer. It may be useful to examine this when catching exceptions.
+
+
+.. attribute:: shlex.eof
+
+ Token used to determine end of file. This will be set to the empty string
+ (``''``), in non-POSIX mode, and to ``None`` in POSIX mode.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. _shlex-parsing-rules:
+
+Parsing Rules
+-------------
+
+When operating in non-POSIX mode, :class:`shlex` will try to obey to the
+following rules.
+
+* Quote characters are not recognized within words (``Do"Not"Separate`` is
+ parsed as the single word ``Do"Not"Separate``);
+
+* Escape characters are not recognized;
+
+* Enclosing characters in quotes preserve the literal value of all characters
+ within the quotes;
+
+* Closing quotes separate words (``"Do"Separate`` is parsed as ``"Do"`` and
+ ``Separate``);
+
+* If :attr:`whitespace_split` is ``False``, any character not declared to be a
+ word character, whitespace, or a quote will be returned as a single-character
+ token. If it is ``True``, :class:`shlex` will only split words in whitespaces;
+
+* EOF is signaled with an empty string (``''``);
+
+* It's not possible to parse empty strings, even if quoted.
+
+When operating in POSIX mode, :class:`shlex` will try to obey to the following
+parsing rules.
+
+* Quotes are stripped out, and do not separate words (``"Do"Not"Separate"`` is
+ parsed as the single word ``DoNotSeparate``);
+
+* Non-quoted escape characters (e.g. ``'\'``) preserve the literal value of the
+ next character that follows;
+
+* Enclosing characters in quotes which are not part of :attr:`escapedquotes`
+ (e.g. ``"'"``) preserve the literal value of all characters within the quotes;
+
+* Enclosing characters in quotes which are part of :attr:`escapedquotes` (e.g.
+ ``'"'``) preserves the literal value of all characters within the quotes, with
+ the exception of the characters mentioned in :attr:`escape`. The escape
+ characters retain its special meaning only when followed by the quote in use, or
+ the escape character itself. Otherwise the escape character will be considered a
+ normal character.
+
+* EOF is signaled with a :const:`None` value;
+
+* Quoted empty strings (``''``) are allowed;

+:mod:`shutil` --- High-level file operations
+============================================
+
+.. module:: shutil
+ :synopsis: High-level file operations, including copying.
+.. sectionauthor:: Fred L. Drake, Jr. <[email protected]>
+.. partly based on the docstrings
+
+.. index::
+ single: file; copying
+ single: copying files
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/shutil.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`shutil` module offers a number of high-level operations on files and
+collections of files. In particular, functions are provided which support file
+copying and removal. For operations on individual files, see also the
+:mod:`os` module.
+
+.. warning::
+
+ Even the higher-level file copying functions (:func:`shutil.copy`,
+ :func:`shutil.copy2`) can't copy all file metadata.
+
+ On POSIX platforms, this means that file owner and group are lost as well
+ as ACLs. On Mac OS, the resource fork and other metadata are not used.
+ This means that resources will be lost and file type and creator codes will
+ not be correct. On Windows, file owners, ACLs and alternate data streams
+ are not copied.
+
+
+.. _file-operations:
+
+Directory and files operations
+------------------------------
+
+.. function:: copyfileobj(fsrc, fdst[, length])
+
+ Copy the contents of the file-like object *fsrc* to the file-like object *fdst*.
+ The integer *length*, if given, is the buffer size. In particular, a negative
+ *length* value means to copy the data without looping over the source data in
+ chunks; by default the data is read in chunks to avoid uncontrolled memory
+ consumption. Note that if the current file position of the *fsrc* object is not
+ 0, only the contents from the current file position to the end of the file will
+ be copied.
+
+
+.. function:: copyfile(src, dst)
+
+ Copy the contents (no metadata) of the file named *src* to a file named
+ *dst*. *dst* must be the complete target file name; look at
+ :func:`shutil.copy` for a copy that accepts a target directory path. If
+ *src* and *dst* are the same files, :exc:`Error` is raised.
+ The destination location must be writable; otherwise, an :exc:`IOError` exception
+ will be raised. If *dst* already exists, it will be replaced. Special files
+ such as character or block devices and pipes cannot be copied with this
+ function. *src* and *dst* are path names given as strings.
+
+
+.. function:: copymode(src, dst)
+
+ Copy the permission bits from *src* to *dst*. The file contents, owner, and
+ group are unaffected. *src* and *dst* are path names given as strings.
+
+
+.. function:: copystat(src, dst)
+
+ Copy the permission bits, last access time, last modification time, and flags
+ from *src* to *dst*. The file contents, owner, and group are unaffected. *src*
+ and *dst* are path names given as strings.
+
+
+.. function:: copy(src, dst)
+
+ Copy the file *src* to the file or directory *dst*. If *dst* is a directory, a
+ file with the same basename as *src* is created (or overwritten) in the
+ directory specified. Permission bits are copied. *src* and *dst* are path
+ names given as strings.
+
+
+.. function:: copy2(src, dst)
+
+ Similar to :func:`shutil.copy`, but metadata is copied as well -- in fact,
+ this is just :func:`shutil.copy` followed by :func:`copystat`. This is
+ similar to the Unix command :program:`cp -p`.
+
+
+.. function:: ignore_patterns(\*patterns)
+
+ This factory function creates a function that can be used as a callable for
+ :func:`copytree`\'s *ignore* argument, ignoring files and directories that
+ match one of the glob-style *patterns* provided. See the example below.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: copytree(src, dst, symlinks=False, ignore=None)
+
+ Recursively copy an entire directory tree rooted at *src*. The destination
+ directory, named by *dst*, must not already exist; it will be created as
+ well as missing parent directories. Permissions and times of directories
+ are copied with :func:`copystat`, individual files are copied using
+ :func:`shutil.copy2`.
+
+ If *symlinks* is true, symbolic links in the source tree are represented as
+ symbolic links in the new tree, but the metadata of the original links is NOT
+ copied; if false or omitted, the contents and metadata of the linked files
+ are copied to the new tree.
+
+ If *ignore* is given, it must be a callable that will receive as its
+ arguments the directory being visited by :func:`copytree`, and a list of its
+ contents, as returned by :func:`os.listdir`. Since :func:`copytree` is
+ called recursively, the *ignore* callable will be called once for each
+ directory that is copied. The callable must return a sequence of directory
+ and file names relative to the current directory (i.e. a subset of the items
+ in its second argument); these names will then be ignored in the copy
+ process. :func:`ignore_patterns` can be used to create such a callable that
+ ignores names based on glob-style patterns.
+
+ If exception(s) occur, an :exc:`Error` is raised with a list of reasons.
+
+ The source code for this should be considered an example rather than the
+ ultimate tool.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ :exc:`Error` is raised if any exceptions occur during copying, rather than
+ printing a message.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ Create intermediate directories needed to create *dst*, rather than raising an
+ error. Copy permissions and times of directories using :func:`copystat`.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ Added the *ignore* argument to be able to influence what is being copied.
+
+
+.. function:: rmtree(path[, ignore_errors[, onerror]])
+
+ .. index:: single: directory; deleting
+
+ Delete an entire directory tree; *path* must point to a directory (but not a
+ symbolic link to a directory). If *ignore_errors* is true, errors resulting
+ from failed removals will be ignored; if false or omitted, such errors are
+ handled by calling a handler specified by *onerror* or, if that is omitted,
+ they raise an exception.
+
+ If *onerror* is provided, it must be a callable that accepts three
+ parameters: *function*, *path*, and *excinfo*. The first parameter,
+ *function*, is the function which raised the exception; it will be
+ :func:`os.path.islink`, :func:`os.listdir`, :func:`os.remove` or
+ :func:`os.rmdir`. The second parameter, *path*, will be the path name passed
+ to *function*. The third parameter, *excinfo*, will be the exception
+ information return by :func:`sys.exc_info`. Exceptions raised by *onerror*
+ will not be caught.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ Explicitly check for *path* being a symbolic link and raise :exc:`OSError`
+ in that case.
+
+
+.. function:: move(src, dst)
+
+ Recursively move a file or directory (*src*) to another location (*dst*).
+
+ If the destination is a directory or a symlink to a directory, then *src* is
+ moved inside that directory.
+
+ The destination directory must not already exist. If the destination already
+ exists but is not a directory, it may be overwritten depending on
+ :func:`os.rename` semantics.
+
+ If the destination is on the current filesystem, then :func:`os.rename` is
+ used. Otherwise, *src* is copied (using :func:`shutil.copy2`) to *dst* and
+ then removed.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. exception:: Error
+
+ This exception collects exceptions that are raised during a multi-file
+ operation. For :func:`copytree`, the exception argument is a list of 3-tuples
+ (*srcname*, *dstname*, *exception*).
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. _copytree-example:
+
+copytree example
+::::::::::::::::
+
+This example is the implementation of the :func:`copytree` function, described
+above, with the docstring omitted. It demonstrates many of the other functions
+provided by this module. ::
+
+ def copytree(src, dst, symlinks=False, ignore=None):
+ names = os.listdir(src)
+ if ignore is not None:
+ ignored_names = ignore(src, names)
+ else:
+ ignored_names = set()
+
+ os.makedirs(dst)
+ errors = []
+ for name in names:
+ if name in ignored_names:
+ continue
+ srcname = os.path.join(src, name)
+ dstname = os.path.join(dst, name)
+ try:
+ if symlinks and os.path.islink(srcname):
+ linkto = os.readlink(srcname)
+ os.symlink(linkto, dstname)
+ elif os.path.isdir(srcname):
+ copytree(srcname, dstname, symlinks, ignore)
+ else:
+ copy2(srcname, dstname)
+ # XXX What about devices, sockets etc.?
+ except (IOError, os.error) as why:
+ errors.append((srcname, dstname, str(why)))
+ # catch the Error from the recursive copytree so that we can
+ # continue with other files
+ except Error as err:
+ errors.extend(err.args[0])
+ try:
+ copystat(src, dst)
+ except WindowsError:
+ # can't copy file access times on Windows
+ pass
+ except OSError as why:
+ errors.extend((src, dst, str(why)))
+ if errors:
+ raise Error(errors)
+
+Another example that uses the :func:`ignore_patterns` helper::
+
+ from shutil import copytree, ignore_patterns
+
+ copytree(source, destination, ignore=ignore_patterns('*.pyc', 'tmp*'))
+
+This will copy everything except ``.pyc`` files and files or directories whose
+name starts with ``tmp``.
+
+Another example that uses the *ignore* argument to add a logging call::
+
+ from shutil import copytree
+ import logging
+
+ def _logpath(path, names):
+ logging.info('Working in %s' % path)
+ return [] # nothing will be ignored
+
+ copytree(source, destination, ignore=_logpath)
+
+
+.. _archiving-operations:
+
+Archiving operations
+--------------------
+
+High-level utilities to create and read compressed and archived files are also
+provided. They rely on the :mod:`zipfile` and :mod:`tarfile` modules.
+
+.. function:: make_archive(base_name, format, [root_dir, [base_dir, [verbose, [dry_run, [owner, [group, [logger]]]]]]])
+
+ Create an archive file (eg. zip or tar) and returns its name.
+
+ *base_name* is the name of the file to create, including the path, minus
+ any format-specific extension. *format* is the archive format: one of
+ "zip", "tar", "bztar" or "gztar".
+
+ *root_dir* is a directory that will be the root directory of the
+ archive; ie. we typically chdir into *root_dir* before creating the
+ archive.
+
+ *base_dir* is the directory where we start archiving from;
+ ie. *base_dir* will be the common prefix of all files and
+ directories in the archive.
+
+ *root_dir* and *base_dir* both default to the current directory.
+
+ *owner* and *group* are used when creating a tar archive. By default,
+ uses the current owner and group.
+
+ *logger* must be an object compatible with :pep:`282`, usually an instance of
+ :class:`logging.Logger`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+.. function:: get_archive_formats()
+
+ Return a list of supported formats for archiving.
+ Each element of the returned sequence is a tuple ``(name, description)``
+
+ By default :mod:`shutil` provides these formats:
+
+ - *gztar*: gzip'ed tar-file
+ - *bztar*: bzip2'ed tar-file
+ - *tar*: uncompressed tar file
+ - *zip*: ZIP file
+
+ You can register new formats or provide your own archiver for any existing
+ formats, by using :func:`register_archive_format`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+.. function:: register_archive_format(name, function, [extra_args, [description]])
+
+ Register an archiver for the format *name*. *function* is a callable that
+ will be used to invoke the archiver.
+
+ If given, *extra_args* is a sequence of ``(name, value)`` that will be
+ used as extra keywords arguments when the archiver callable is used.
+
+ *description* is used by :func:`get_archive_formats` which returns the
+ list of archivers. Defaults to an empty list.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+.. function:: unregister_archive_format(name)
+
+ Remove the archive format *name* from the list of supported formats.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+.. _archiving-example:
+
+Archiving example
+:::::::::::::::::
+
+In this example, we create a gzip'ed tar-file archive containing all files

+:mod:`signal` --- Set handlers for asynchronous events
+======================================================
+
+.. module:: signal
+ :synopsis: Set handlers for asynchronous events.
+
+
+This module provides mechanisms to use signal handlers in Python. Some general
+rules for working with signals and their handlers:
+
+* A handler for a particular signal, once set, remains installed until it is
+ explicitly reset (Python emulates the BSD style interface regardless of the
+ underlying implementation), with the exception of the handler for
+ :const:`SIGCHLD`, which follows the underlying implementation.
+
+* There is no way to "block" signals temporarily from critical sections (since
+ this is not supported by all Unix flavors).
+
+* Although Python signal handlers are called asynchronously as far as the Python
+ user is concerned, they can only occur between the "atomic" instructions of the
+ Python interpreter. This means that signals arriving during long calculations
+ implemented purely in C (such as regular expression matches on large bodies of
+ text) may be delayed for an arbitrary amount of time.
+
+* When a signal arrives during an I/O operation, it is possible that the I/O
+ operation raises an exception after the signal handler returns. This is
+ dependent on the underlying Unix system's semantics regarding interrupted system
+ calls.
+
+* Because the C signal handler always returns, it makes little sense to catch
+ synchronous errors like :const:`SIGFPE` or :const:`SIGSEGV`.
+
+* Python installs a small number of signal handlers by default: :const:`SIGPIPE`
+ is ignored (so write errors on pipes and sockets can be reported as ordinary
+ Python exceptions) and :const:`SIGINT` is translated into a
+ :exc:`KeyboardInterrupt` exception. All of these can be overridden.
+
+* Some care must be taken if both signals and threads are used in the same
+ program. The fundamental thing to remember in using signals and threads
+ simultaneously is: always perform :func:`signal` operations in the main thread
+ of execution. Any thread can perform an :func:`alarm`, :func:`getsignal`,
+ :func:`pause`, :func:`setitimer` or :func:`getitimer`; only the main thread
+ can set a new signal handler, and the main thread will be the only one to
+ receive signals (this is enforced by the Python :mod:`signal` module, even
+ if the underlying thread implementation supports sending signals to
+ individual threads). This means that signals can't be used as a means of
+ inter-thread communication. Use locks instead.
+
+The variables defined in the :mod:`signal` module are:
+
+
+.. data:: SIG_DFL
+
+ This is one of two standard signal handling options; it will simply perform
+ the default function for the signal. For example, on most systems the
+ default action for :const:`SIGQUIT` is to dump core and exit, while the
+ default action for :const:`SIGCHLD` is to simply ignore it.
+
+
+.. data:: SIG_IGN
+
+ This is another standard signal handler, which will simply ignore the given
+ signal.
+
+
+.. data:: SIG*
+
+ All the signal numbers are defined symbolically. For example, the hangup signal
+ is defined as :const:`signal.SIGHUP`; the variable names are identical to the
+ names used in C programs, as found in ``<signal.h>``. The Unix man page for
+ ':c:func:`signal`' lists the existing signals (on some systems this is
+ :manpage:`signal(2)`, on others the list is in :manpage:`signal(7)`). Note that
+ not all systems define the same set of signal names; only those names defined by
+ the system are defined by this module.
+
+
+.. data:: CTRL_C_EVENT
+
+ The signal corresponding to the CTRL+C keystroke event. This signal can
+ only be used with :func:`os.kill`.
+
+ Availability: Windows.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+.. data:: CTRL_BREAK_EVENT
+
+ The signal corresponding to the CTRL+BREAK keystroke event. This signal can
+ only be used with :func:`os.kill`.
+
+ Availability: Windows.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+.. data:: NSIG
+
+ One more than the number of the highest signal number.
+
+
+.. data:: ITIMER_REAL
+
+ Decrements interval timer in real time, and delivers :const:`SIGALRM` upon expiration.
+
+
+.. data:: ITIMER_VIRTUAL
+
+ Decrements interval timer only when the process is executing, and delivers
+ SIGVTALRM upon expiration.
+
+
+.. data:: ITIMER_PROF
+
+ Decrements interval timer both when the process executes and when the
+ system is executing on behalf of the process. Coupled with ITIMER_VIRTUAL,
+ this timer is usually used to profile the time spent by the application
+ in user and kernel space. SIGPROF is delivered upon expiration.
+
+
+The :mod:`signal` module defines one exception:
+
+.. exception:: ItimerError
+
+ Raised to signal an error from the underlying :func:`setitimer` or
+ :func:`getitimer` implementation. Expect this error if an invalid
+ interval timer or a negative time is passed to :func:`setitimer`.
+ This error is a subtype of :exc:`IOError`.
+
+
+The :mod:`signal` module defines the following functions:
+
+
+.. function:: alarm(time)
+
+ If *time* is non-zero, this function requests that a :const:`SIGALRM` signal be
+ sent to the process in *time* seconds. Any previously scheduled alarm is
+ canceled (only one alarm can be scheduled at any time). The returned value is
+ then the number of seconds before any previously set alarm was to have been
+ delivered. If *time* is zero, no alarm is scheduled, and any scheduled alarm is
+ canceled. If the return value is zero, no alarm is currently scheduled. (See
+ the Unix man page :manpage:`alarm(2)`.) Availability: Unix.
+
+
+.. function:: getsignal(signalnum)
+
+ Return the current signal handler for the signal *signalnum*. The returned value
+ may be a callable Python object, or one of the special values
+ :const:`signal.SIG_IGN`, :const:`signal.SIG_DFL` or :const:`None`. Here,
+ :const:`signal.SIG_IGN` means that the signal was previously ignored,
+ :const:`signal.SIG_DFL` means that the default way of handling the signal was
+ previously in use, and ``None`` means that the previous signal handler was not
+ installed from Python.
+
+
+.. function:: pause()
+
+ Cause the process to sleep until a signal is received; the appropriate handler
+ will then be called. Returns nothing. Not on Windows. (See the Unix man page
+ :manpage:`signal(2)`.)
+
+
+.. function:: setitimer(which, seconds[, interval])
+
+ Sets given interval timer (one of :const:`signal.ITIMER_REAL`,
+ :const:`signal.ITIMER_VIRTUAL` or :const:`signal.ITIMER_PROF`) specified
+ by *which* to fire after *seconds* (float is accepted, different from
+ :func:`alarm`) and after that every *interval* seconds. The interval
+ timer specified by *which* can be cleared by setting seconds to zero.
+
+ When an interval timer fires, a signal is sent to the process.
+ The signal sent is dependent on the timer being used;
+ :const:`signal.ITIMER_REAL` will deliver :const:`SIGALRM`,
+ :const:`signal.ITIMER_VIRTUAL` sends :const:`SIGVTALRM`,
+ and :const:`signal.ITIMER_PROF` will deliver :const:`SIGPROF`.
+
+ The old values are returned as a tuple: (delay, interval).
+
+ Attempting to pass an invalid interval timer will cause an
+ :exc:`ItimerError`. Availability: Unix.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: getitimer(which)
+
+ Returns current value of a given interval timer specified by *which*.
+ Availability: Unix.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: set_wakeup_fd(fd)
+
+ Set the wakeup fd to *fd*. When a signal is received, a ``'\0'`` byte is
+ written to the fd. This can be used by a library to wakeup a poll or select
+ call, allowing the signal to be fully processed.
+
+ The old wakeup fd is returned. *fd* must be non-blocking. It is up to the
+ library to remove any bytes before calling poll or select again.
+
+ When threads are enabled, this function can only be called from the main thread;
+ attempting to call it from other threads will cause a :exc:`ValueError`
+ exception to be raised.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: siginterrupt(signalnum, flag)
+
+ Change system call restart behaviour: if *flag* is :const:`False`, system
+ calls will be restarted when interrupted by signal *signalnum*, otherwise
+ system calls will be interrupted. Returns nothing. Availability: Unix (see
+ the man page :manpage:`siginterrupt(3)` for further information).
+
+ Note that installing a signal handler with :func:`signal` will reset the
+ restart behaviour to interruptible by implicitly calling
+ :c:func:`siginterrupt` with a true *flag* value for the given signal.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: signal(signalnum, handler)
+
+ Set the handler for signal *signalnum* to the function *handler*. *handler* can
+ be a callable Python object taking two arguments (see below), or one of the
+ special values :const:`signal.SIG_IGN` or :const:`signal.SIG_DFL`. The previous
+ signal handler will be returned (see the description of :func:`getsignal`
+ above). (See the Unix man page :manpage:`signal(2)`.)
+
+ When threads are enabled, this function can only be called from the main thread;
+ attempting to call it from other threads will cause a :exc:`ValueError`
+ exception to be raised.
+
+ The *handler* is called with two arguments: the signal number and the current
+ stack frame (``None`` or a frame object; for a description of frame objects,
+ see the :ref:`description in the type hierarchy <frame-objects>` or see the
+ attribute descriptions in the :mod:`inspect` module).
+
+ On Windows, :func:`signal` can only be called with :const:`SIGABRT`,
+ :const:`SIGFPE`, :const:`SIGILL`, :const:`SIGINT`, :const:`SIGSEGV`, or
+ :const:`SIGTERM`. A :exc:`ValueError` will be raised in any other case.
+
+
+.. _signal-example:
+
+Example
+-------
+
+Here is a minimal example program. It uses the :func:`alarm` function to limit
+the time spent waiting to open a file; this is useful if the file is for a
+serial device that may not be turned on, which would normally cause the
+:func:`os.open` to hang indefinitely. The solution is to set a 5-second alarm
+before opening the file; if the operation takes too long, the alarm signal will
+be sent, and the handler raises an exception. ::
+
+ import signal, os
+
+ def handler(signum, frame):
+ print 'Signal handler called with signal', signum
+ raise IOError("Couldn't open device!")
+
+ # Set the signal handler and a 5-second alarm
+ signal.signal(signal.SIGALRM, handler)
+ signal.alarm(5)
+
+ # This open() may hang indefinitely
+ fd = os.open('/dev/ttyS0', os.O_RDWR)
+
+ signal.alarm(0) # Disable the alarm

+:mod:`SimpleHTTPServer` --- Simple HTTP request handler
+=======================================================
+
+.. module:: SimpleHTTPServer
+ :synopsis: This module provides a basic request handler for HTTP servers.
+.. sectionauthor:: Moshe Zadka <[email protected]>
+
+.. note::
+ The :mod:`SimpleHTTPServer` module has been merged into :mod:`http.server` in
+ Python 3. The :term:`2to3` tool will automatically adapt imports when
+ converting your sources to Python 3.
+
+
+The :mod:`SimpleHTTPServer` module defines a single class,
+:class:`SimpleHTTPRequestHandler`, which is interface-compatible with
+:class:`BaseHTTPServer.BaseHTTPRequestHandler`.
+
+The :mod:`SimpleHTTPServer` module defines the following class:
+
+
+.. class:: SimpleHTTPRequestHandler(request, client_address, server)
+
+ This class serves files from the current directory and below, directly
+ mapping the directory structure to HTTP requests.
+
+ A lot of the work, such as parsing the request, is done by the base class
+ :class:`BaseHTTPServer.BaseHTTPRequestHandler`. This class implements the
+ :func:`do_GET` and :func:`do_HEAD` functions.
+
+ The following are defined as class-level attributes of
+ :class:`SimpleHTTPRequestHandler`:
+
+
+ .. attribute:: server_version
+
+ This will be ``"SimpleHTTP/" + __version__``, where ``__version__`` is
+ defined at the module level.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: extensions_map
+
+ A dictionary mapping suffixes into MIME types. The default is
+ signified by an empty string, and is considered to be
+ ``application/octet-stream``. The mapping is used case-insensitively,
+ and so should contain only lower-cased keys.
+
+ The :class:`SimpleHTTPRequestHandler` class defines the following methods:
+
+
+ .. method:: do_HEAD()
+
+ This method serves the ``'HEAD'`` request type: it sends the headers it
+ would send for the equivalent ``GET`` request. See the :meth:`do_GET`
+ method for a more complete explanation of the possible headers.
+
+
+ .. method:: do_GET()
+
+ The request is mapped to a local file by interpreting the request as a
+ path relative to the current working directory.
+
+ If the request was mapped to a directory, the directory is checked for a
+ file named ``index.html`` or ``index.htm`` (in that order). If found, the
+ file's contents are returned; otherwise a directory listing is generated
+ by calling the :meth:`list_directory` method. This method uses
+ :func:`os.listdir` to scan the directory, and returns a ``404`` error
+ response if the :func:`listdir` fails.
+
+ If the request was mapped to a file, it is opened and the contents are
+ returned. Any :exc:`IOError` exception in opening the requested file is
+ mapped to a ``404``, ``'File not found'`` error. Otherwise, the content
+ type is guessed by calling the :meth:`guess_type` method, which in turn
+ uses the *extensions_map* variable.
+
+ A ``'Content-type:'`` header with the guessed content type is output,
+ followed by a ``'Content-Length:'`` header with the file's size and a
+ ``'Last-Modified:'`` header with the file's modification time.
+
+ Then follows a blank line signifying the end of the headers, and then the
+ contents of the file are output. If the file's MIME type starts with
+ ``text/`` the file is opened in text mode; otherwise binary mode is used.
+
+ The :func:`test` function in the :mod:`SimpleHTTPServer` module is an
+ example which creates a server using the :class:`SimpleHTTPRequestHandler`
+ as the Handler.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+ The ``'Last-Modified'`` header.
+
+
+The :mod:`SimpleHTTPServer` module can be used in the following manner in order
+to set up a very basic web server serving files relative to the current
+directory. ::
+
+ import SimpleHTTPServer
+ import SocketServer
+
+ PORT = 8000
+
+ Handler = SimpleHTTPServer.SimpleHTTPRequestHandler
+
+ httpd = SocketServer.TCPServer(("", PORT), Handler)
+
+ print "serving at port", PORT
+ httpd.serve_forever()
+
+The :mod:`SimpleHTTPServer` module can also be invoked directly using the
+:option:`-m` switch of the interpreter with a ``port number`` argument.
+Similar to the previous example, this serves the files relative to the
+current directory. ::
+
+ python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8000
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ Module :mod:`BaseHTTPServer`
+ Base class implementation for Web server and request handler.

+
+.. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/SimpleXMLRPCServer.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`SimpleXMLRPCServer` module provides a basic server framework for
+XML-RPC servers written in Python. Servers can either be free standing, using
+:class:`SimpleXMLRPCServer`, or embedded in a CGI environment, using
+:class:`CGIXMLRPCRequestHandler`.
+
+
+.. class:: SimpleXMLRPCServer(addr[, requestHandler[, logRequests[, allow_none[, encoding[, bind_and_activate]]]])
+
+ Create a new server instance. This class provides methods for registration of
+ functions that can be called by the XML-RPC protocol. The *requestHandler*
+ parameter should be a factory for request handler instances; it defaults to
+ :class:`SimpleXMLRPCRequestHandler`. The *addr* and *requestHandler* parameters
+ are passed to the :class:`SocketServer.TCPServer` constructor. If *logRequests*
+ is true (the default), requests will be logged; setting this parameter to false
+ will turn off logging. The *allow_none* and *encoding* parameters are passed
+ on to :mod:`xmlrpclib` and control the XML-RPC responses that will be returned
+ from the server. The *bind_and_activate* parameter controls whether
+ :meth:`server_bind` and :meth:`server_activate` are called immediately by the
+ constructor; it defaults to true. Setting it to false allows code to manipulate
+ the *allow_reuse_address* class variable before the address is bound.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ The *allow_none* and *encoding* parameters were added.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ The *bind_and_activate* parameter was added.
+
+
+.. class:: CGIXMLRPCRequestHandler([allow_none[, encoding]])
+
+ Create a new instance to handle XML-RPC requests in a CGI environment. The
+ *allow_none* and *encoding* parameters are passed on to :mod:`xmlrpclib` and
+ control the XML-RPC responses that will be returned from the server.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ The *allow_none* and *encoding* parameters were added.
+
+
+.. class:: SimpleXMLRPCRequestHandler()
+
+ Create a new request handler instance. This request handler supports ``POST``
+ requests and modifies logging so that the *logRequests* parameter to the
+ :class:`SimpleXMLRPCServer` constructor parameter is honored.
+
+
+.. _simple-xmlrpc-servers:
+
+SimpleXMLRPCServer Objects
+--------------------------
+
+The :class:`SimpleXMLRPCServer` class is based on
+:class:`SocketServer.TCPServer` and provides a means of creating simple, stand
+alone XML-RPC servers.
+
+
+.. method:: SimpleXMLRPCServer.register_function(function[, name])
+
+ Register a function that can respond to XML-RPC requests. If *name* is given,
+ it will be the method name associated with *function*, otherwise
+ ``function.__name__`` will be used. *name* can be either a normal or Unicode
+ string, and may contain characters not legal in Python identifiers, including
+ the period character.
+
+
+.. method:: SimpleXMLRPCServer.register_instance(instance[, allow_dotted_names])
+
+ Register an object which is used to expose method names which have not been
+ registered using :meth:`register_function`. If *instance* contains a
+ :meth:`_dispatch` method, it is called with the requested method name and the
+ parameters from the request. Its API is ``def _dispatch(self, method, params)``
+ (note that *params* does not represent a variable argument list). If it calls
+ an underlying function to perform its task, that function is called as
+ ``func(*params)``, expanding the parameter list. The return value from
+ :meth:`_dispatch` is returned to the client as the result. If *instance* does
+ not have a :meth:`_dispatch` method, it is searched for an attribute matching
+ the name of the requested method.
+
+ If the optional *allow_dotted_names* argument is true and the instance does not
+ have a :meth:`_dispatch` method, then if the requested method name contains
+ periods, each component of the method name is searched for individually, with
+ the effect that a simple hierarchical search is performed. The value found from
+ this search is then called with the parameters from the request, and the return
+ value is passed back to the client.
+
+ .. warning::
+
+ Enabling the *allow_dotted_names* option allows intruders to access your
+ module's global variables and may allow intruders to execute arbitrary code on
+ your machine. Only use this option on a secure, closed network.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.3.5, 2.4.1
+ *allow_dotted_names* was added to plug a security hole; prior versions are
+ insecure.
+
+
+.. method:: SimpleXMLRPCServer.register_introspection_functions()
+
+ Registers the XML-RPC introspection functions ``system.listMethods``,
+ ``system.methodHelp`` and ``system.methodSignature``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. method:: SimpleXMLRPCServer.register_multicall_functions()
+
+ Registers the XML-RPC multicall function system.multicall.
+
+
+.. attribute:: SimpleXMLRPCRequestHandler.rpc_paths
+
+ An attribute value that must be a tuple listing valid path portions of the URL
+ for receiving XML-RPC requests. Requests posted to other paths will result in a
+ 404 "no such page" HTTP error. If this tuple is empty, all paths will be
+ considered valid. The default value is ``('/', '/RPC2')``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+.. attribute:: SimpleXMLRPCRequestHandler.encode_threshold
+
+ If this attribute is not ``None``, responses larger than this value
+ will be encoded using the *gzip* transfer encoding, if permitted by
+ the client. The default is ``1400`` which corresponds roughly
+ to a single TCP packet.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7

+SimpleXMLRPCServer Example
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+Server code::
+
+ from SimpleXMLRPCServer import SimpleXMLRPCServer
+ from SimpleXMLRPCServer import SimpleXMLRPCRequestHandler
+
+ # Restrict to a particular path.
+ class RequestHandler(SimpleXMLRPCRequestHandler):
+ rpc_paths = ('/RPC2',)
+
+ # Create server
+ server = SimpleXMLRPCServer(("localhost", 8000),
+ requestHandler=RequestHandler)
+ server.register_introspection_functions()
+
+ # Register pow() function; this will use the value of
+ # pow.__name__ as the name, which is just 'pow'.
+ server.register_function(pow)
+

+ def adder_function(x,y):
+ return x + y

+ class MyFuncs:
+ def div(self, x, y):
+ return x // y
+
+ server.register_instance(MyFuncs())
+
+ # Run the server's main loop
+ server.serve_forever()
+
+The following client code will call the methods made available by the preceding
+server::
+
+ import xmlrpclib
+
+ s = xmlrpclib.ServerProxy('http://localhost:8000')
+ print s.pow(2,3) # Returns 2**3 = 8
+ print s.add(2,3) # Returns 5
+ print s.div(5,2) # Returns 5//2 = 2
+
+ # Print list of available methods
+ print s.system.listMethods()
+
+
+CGIXMLRPCRequestHandler
+-----------------------
+
+The :class:`CGIXMLRPCRequestHandler` class can be used to handle XML-RPC
+requests sent to Python CGI scripts.
+
+
+.. method:: CGIXMLRPCRequestHandler.register_function(function[, name])
+
+ Register a function that can respond to XML-RPC requests. If *name* is given,
+ it will be the method name associated with function, otherwise
+ *function.__name__* will be used. *name* can be either a normal or Unicode
+ string, and may contain characters not legal in Python identifiers, including
+ the period character.
+
+
+.. method:: CGIXMLRPCRequestHandler.register_instance(instance)
+
+ Register an object which is used to expose method names which have not been
+ registered using :meth:`register_function`. If instance contains a
+ :meth:`_dispatch` method, it is called with the requested method name and the
+ parameters from the request; the return value is returned to the client as the
+ result. If instance does not have a :meth:`_dispatch` method, it is searched
+ for an attribute matching the name of the requested method; if the requested
+ method name contains periods, each component of the method name is searched for
+ individually, with the effect that a simple hierarchical search is performed.
+ The value found from this search is then called with the parameters from the
+ request, and the return value is passed back to the client.
+
+
+.. method:: CGIXMLRPCRequestHandler.register_introspection_functions()
+
+ Register the XML-RPC introspection functions ``system.listMethods``,
+ ``system.methodHelp`` and ``system.methodSignature``.
+
+
+.. method:: CGIXMLRPCRequestHandler.register_multicall_functions()
+
+ Register the XML-RPC multicall function ``system.multicall``.
+
+
+.. method:: CGIXMLRPCRequestHandler.handle_request([request_text = None])
+
+ Handle a XML-RPC request. If *request_text* is given, it should be the POST
+ data provided by the HTTP server, otherwise the contents of stdin will be used.
+
+Example::
+
+ class MyFuncs:
+ def div(self, x, y) : return x // y
+
+
+ handler = CGIXMLRPCRequestHandler()
+ handler.register_function(pow)
+ handler.register_function(lambda x,y: x+y, 'add')

+:mod:`site` --- Site-specific configuration hook
+================================================
+
+.. module:: site
+ :synopsis: Module responsible for site-specific configuration.
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/site.py`
+
+--------------
+
+.. highlightlang:: none
+
+**This module is automatically imported during initialization.** The automatic
+import can be suppressed using the interpreter's :option:`-S` option.
+
+.. index:: triple: module; search; path
+
+Importing this module will append site-specific paths to the module search path
+and add a few builtins.
+
+.. index::
+ pair: site-python; directory
+ pair: site-packages; directory
+
+It starts by constructing up to four directories from a head and a tail part.
+For the head part, it uses ``sys.prefix`` and ``sys.exec_prefix``; empty heads
+are skipped. For the tail part, it uses the empty string and then
+:file:`lib/site-packages` (on Windows) or
+:file:`lib/python{X.Y}/site-packages` and then :file:`lib/site-python` (on
+Unix and Macintosh). For each of the distinct head-tail combinations, it sees
+if it refers to an existing directory, and if so, adds it to ``sys.path`` and
+also inspects the newly added path for configuration files.
+
+A path configuration file is a file whose name has the form :file:`{name}.pth`
+and exists in one of the four directories mentioned above; its contents are
+additional items (one per line) to be added to ``sys.path``. Non-existing items
+are never added to ``sys.path``, and no check is made that the item refers to a
+directory rather than a file. No item is added to ``sys.path`` more than
+once. Blank lines and lines beginning with ``#`` are skipped. Lines starting
+with ``import`` (followed by space or tab) are executed.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ A space or tab is now required after the import keyword.
+
+.. index::
+ single: package
+ triple: path; configuration; file
+
+For example, suppose ``sys.prefix`` and ``sys.exec_prefix`` are set to
+:file:`/usr/local`. The Python X.Y library is then installed in
+:file:`/usr/local/lib/python{X.Y}`. Suppose this has
+a subdirectory :file:`/usr/local/lib/python{X.Y}/site-packages` with three
+subsubdirectories, :file:`foo`, :file:`bar` and :file:`spam`, and two path
+configuration files, :file:`foo.pth` and :file:`bar.pth`. Assume
+:file:`foo.pth` contains the following::
+
+ # foo package configuration
+
+ foo
+ bar
+ bletch
+
+and :file:`bar.pth` contains::
+
+ # bar package configuration
+
+ bar
+
+Then the following version-specific directories are added to
+``sys.path``, in this order::
+
+ /usr/local/lib/pythonX.Y/site-packages/bar
+ /usr/local/lib/pythonX.Y/site-packages/foo
+
+Note that :file:`bletch` is omitted because it doesn't exist; the :file:`bar`
+directory precedes the :file:`foo` directory because :file:`bar.pth` comes
+alphabetically before :file:`foo.pth`; and :file:`spam` is omitted because it is
+not mentioned in either path configuration file.
+
+.. index:: module: sitecustomize

+After these path manipulations, an attempt is made to import a module named
+:mod:`sitecustomize`, which can perform arbitrary site-specific customizations.
+It is typically created by a system administrator in the site-packages
+directory. If this import fails with an :exc:`ImportError` exception, it is
+silently ignored.
+
+.. index:: module: usercustomize
+
+After this, an attempt is made to import a module named :mod:`usercustomize`,
+which can perform arbitrary user-specific customizations, if
+:data:`ENABLE_USER_SITE` is true. This file is intended to be created in the
+user site-packages directory (see below), which is part of ``sys.path`` unless
+disabled by :option:`-s`. An :exc:`ImportError` will be silently ignored.
+
+Note that for some non-Unix systems, ``sys.prefix`` and ``sys.exec_prefix`` are
+empty, and the path manipulations are skipped; however the import of
+:mod:`sitecustomize` and :mod:`usercustomize` is still attempted.

+
+ A list of prefixes for site-packages directories.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. data:: ENABLE_USER_SITE
+
+ Flag showing the status of the user site-packages directory. ``True`` means
+ that it is enabled and was added to ``sys.path``. ``False`` means that it
+ was disabled by user request (with :option:`-s` or
+ :envvar:`PYTHONNOUSERSITE`). ``None`` means it was disabled for security
+ reasons (mismatch between user or group id and effective id) or by an
+ administrator.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. data:: USER_SITE
+
+ Path to the user site-packages for the running Python. Can be ``None`` if
+ :func:`getusersitepackages` hasn't been called yet. Default value is
+ :file:`~/.local/lib/python{X.Y}/site-packages` for UNIX and non-framework Mac
+ OS X builds, :file:`~/Library/Python/{X.Y}/lib/python/site-packages` for Mac
+ framework builds, and :file:`{%APPDATA%}\\Python\\Python{XY}\\site-packages`
+ on Windows. This directory is a site directory, which means that
+ :file:`.pth` files in it will be processed.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. data:: USER_BASE
+
+ Path to the base directory for the user site-packages. Can be ``None`` if
+ :func:`getuserbase` hasn't been called yet. Default value is
+ :file:`~/.local` for UNIX and Mac OS X non-framework builds,
+ :file:`~/Library/Python/{X.Y}` for Mac framework builds, and
+ :file:`{%APPDATA%}\\Python` for Windows. This value is used by Distutils to
+ compute the installation directories for scripts, data files, Python modules,
+ etc. for the :ref:`user installation scheme <inst-alt-install-user>`. See
+ also :envvar:`PYTHONUSERBASE`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: addsitedir(sitedir, known_paths=None)
+
+ Add a directory to sys.path and process its :file:`.pth` files. Typically
+ used in :mod:`sitecustomize` or :mod:`usercustomize` (see above).
+
+
+.. function:: getsitepackages()
+
+ Return a list containing all global site-packages directories (and possibly
+ site-python).
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+.. function:: getuserbase()
+
+ Return the path of the user base directory, :data:`USER_BASE`. If it is not
+ initialized yet, this function will also set it, respecting
+ :envvar:`PYTHONUSERBASE`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+.. function:: getusersitepackages()
+
+ Return the path of the user-specific site-packages directory,
+ :data:`USER_SITE`. If it is not initialized yet, this function will also set
+ it, respecting :envvar:`PYTHONNOUSERSITE` and :data:`USER_BASE`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+The :mod:`site` module also provides a way to get the user directories from the
+command line:
+
+.. code-block:: sh
+
+ $ python3 -m site --user-site
+ /home/user/.local/lib/python3.3/site-packages
+
+.. program:: site
+
+If it is called without arguments, it will print the contents of
+:data:`sys.path` on the standard output, followed by the value of
+:data:`USER_BASE` and whether the directory exists, then the same thing for
+:data:`USER_SITE`, and finally the value of :data:`ENABLE_USER_SITE`.
+
+.. cmdoption:: --user-base
+
+ Print the path to the user base directory.
+
+.. cmdoption:: --user-site
+
+ Print the path to the user site-packages directory.
+
+If both options are given, user base and user site will be printed (always in
+this order), separated by :data:`os.pathsep`.
+
+If any option is given, the script will exit with one of these values: ``O`` if
+the user site-packages directory is enabled, ``1`` if it was disabled by the
+user, ``2`` if it is disabled for security reasons or by an administrator, and a
+value greater than 2 if there is an error.

+:mod:`smtpd` --- SMTP Server
+============================
+
+.. module:: smtpd
+ :synopsis: A SMTP server implementation in Python.
+
+.. moduleauthor:: Barry Warsaw <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Moshe Zadka <[email protected]>
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/smtpd.py`
+
+--------------
+
+This module offers several classes to implement SMTP servers. One is a generic
+do-nothing implementation, which can be overridden, while the other two offer
+specific mail-sending strategies.
+
+
+SMTPServer Objects
+------------------
+
+
+.. class:: SMTPServer(localaddr, remoteaddr)
+
+ Create a new :class:`SMTPServer` object, which binds to local address
+ *localaddr*. It will treat *remoteaddr* as an upstream SMTP relayer. It
+ inherits from :class:`asyncore.dispatcher`, and so will insert itself into
+ :mod:`asyncore`'s event loop on instantiation.
+
+
+ .. method:: process_message(peer, mailfrom, rcpttos, data)
+
+ Raise :exc:`NotImplementedError` exception. Override this in subclasses to
+ do something useful with this message. Whatever was passed in the
+ constructor as *remoteaddr* will be available as the :attr:`_remoteaddr`
+ attribute. *peer* is the remote host's address, *mailfrom* is the envelope
+ originator, *rcpttos* are the envelope recipients and *data* is a string
+ containing the contents of the e-mail (which should be in :rfc:`2822`
+ format).
+
+
+DebuggingServer Objects
+-----------------------
+
+
+.. class:: DebuggingServer(localaddr, remoteaddr)
+
+ Create a new debugging server. Arguments are as per :class:`SMTPServer`.
+ Messages will be discarded, and printed on stdout.
+
+
+PureProxy Objects
+-----------------
+
+
+.. class:: PureProxy(localaddr, remoteaddr)
+
+ Create a new pure proxy server. Arguments are as per :class:`SMTPServer`.
+ Everything will be relayed to *remoteaddr*. Note that running this has a good
+ chance to make you into an open relay, so please be careful.
+
+
+MailmanProxy Objects
+--------------------
+
+
+.. class:: MailmanProxy(localaddr, remoteaddr)
+
+ Create a new pure proxy server. Arguments are as per :class:`SMTPServer`.
+ Everything will be relayed to *remoteaddr*, unless local mailman configurations
+ knows about an address, in which case it will be handled via mailman. Note that
+ running this has a good chance to make you into an open relay, so please be
+ careful.

+:mod:`smtplib` --- SMTP protocol client
+=======================================
+
+.. module:: smtplib
+ :synopsis: SMTP protocol client (requires sockets).
+.. sectionauthor:: Eric S. Raymond <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. index::
+ pair: SMTP; protocol
+ single: Simple Mail Transfer Protocol
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/smtplib.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`smtplib` module defines an SMTP client session object that can be used
+to send mail to any Internet machine with an SMTP or ESMTP listener daemon. For
+details of SMTP and ESMTP operation, consult :rfc:`821` (Simple Mail Transfer
+Protocol) and :rfc:`1869` (SMTP Service Extensions).
+
+
+.. class:: SMTP([host[, port[, local_hostname[, timeout]]]])
+
+ A :class:`SMTP` instance encapsulates an SMTP connection. It has methods
+ that support a full repertoire of SMTP and ESMTP operations. If the optional
+ host and port parameters are given, the SMTP :meth:`connect` method is called
+ with those parameters during initialization. If the :meth:`connect` call
+ returns anything other than a success code, an :exc:`SMTPConnectError` is
+ raised. The optional *timeout* parameter specifies a timeout in seconds for
+ blocking operations like the connection attempt (if not specified, the
+ global default timeout setting will be used).
+
+ For normal use, you should only require the initialization/connect,
+ :meth:`sendmail`, and :meth:`~smtplib.quit` methods.
+ An example is included below.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ *timeout* was added.
+
+
+.. class:: SMTP_SSL([host[, port[, local_hostname[, keyfile[, certfile[, timeout]]]]]])
+
+ A :class:`SMTP_SSL` instance behaves exactly the same as instances of
+ :class:`SMTP`. :class:`SMTP_SSL` should be used for situations where SSL is
+ required from the beginning of the connection and using :meth:`starttls` is
+ not appropriate. If *host* is not specified, the local host is used. If
+ *port* is omitted, the standard SMTP-over-SSL port (465) is used. *keyfile*
+ and *certfile* are also optional, and can contain a PEM formatted private key
+ and certificate chain file for the SSL connection. The optional *timeout*
+ parameter specifies a timeout in seconds for blocking operations like the
+ connection attempt (if not specified, the global default timeout setting
+ will be used).
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. class:: LMTP([host[, port[, local_hostname]]])
+
+ The LMTP protocol, which is very similar to ESMTP, is heavily based on the
+ standard SMTP client. It's common to use Unix sockets for LMTP, so our :meth:`connect`
+ method must support that as well as a regular host:port server. To specify a
+ Unix socket, you must use an absolute path for *host*, starting with a '/'.
+
+ Authentication is supported, using the regular SMTP mechanism. When using a Unix
+ socket, LMTP generally don't support or require any authentication, but your
+ mileage might vary.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+A nice selection of exceptions is defined as well:
+
+
+.. exception:: SMTPException
+
+ The base exception class for all the other excpetions provided by this
+ module.
+
+
+.. exception:: SMTPServerDisconnected
+
+ This exception is raised when the server unexpectedly disconnects, or when an
+ attempt is made to use the :class:`SMTP` instance before connecting it to a
+ server.
+
+
+.. exception:: SMTPResponseException
+
+ Base class for all exceptions that include an SMTP error code. These exceptions
+ are generated in some instances when the SMTP server returns an error code. The
+ error code is stored in the :attr:`smtp_code` attribute of the error, and the
+ :attr:`smtp_error` attribute is set to the error message.
+
+
+.. exception:: SMTPSenderRefused
+
+ Sender address refused. In addition to the attributes set by on all
+ :exc:`SMTPResponseException` exceptions, this sets 'sender' to the string that
+ the SMTP server refused.
+
+
+.. exception:: SMTPRecipientsRefused
+
+ All recipient addresses refused. The errors for each recipient are accessible
+ through the attribute :attr:`recipients`, which is a dictionary of exactly the
+ same sort as :meth:`SMTP.sendmail` returns.
+
+
+.. exception:: SMTPDataError
+
+ The SMTP server refused to accept the message data.
+
+
+.. exception:: SMTPConnectError
+
+ Error occurred during establishment of a connection with the server.
+
+
+.. exception:: SMTPHeloError
+
+ The server refused our ``HELO`` message.
+
+
+.. exception:: SMTPAuthenticationError
+
+ SMTP authentication went wrong. Most probably the server didn't accept the
+ username/password combination provided.
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ :rfc:`821` - Simple Mail Transfer Protocol
+ Protocol definition for SMTP. This document covers the model, operating
+ procedure, and protocol details for SMTP.
+
+ :rfc:`1869` - SMTP Service Extensions
+ Definition of the ESMTP extensions for SMTP. This describes a framework for
+ extending SMTP with new commands, supporting dynamic discovery of the commands
+ provided by the server, and defines a few additional commands.
+
+
+.. _smtp-objects:
+
+SMTP Objects
+------------
+
+An :class:`SMTP` instance has the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: SMTP.set_debuglevel(level)
+
+ Set the debug output level. A true value for *level* results in debug messages
+ for connection and for all messages sent to and received from the server.
+
+
+.. method:: SMTP.docmd(cmd, [, argstring])
+
+ Send a command *cmd* to the server. The optional argument *argstring* is simply
+ concatenated to the command, separated by a space.
+
+ This returns a 2-tuple composed of a numeric response code and the actual
+ response line (multiline responses are joined into one long line.)
+
+ In normal operation it should not be necessary to call this method explicitly.
+ It is used to implement other methods and may be useful for testing private
+ extensions.
+
+ If the connection to the server is lost while waiting for the reply,
+ :exc:`SMTPServerDisconnected` will be raised.
+
+
+.. method:: SMTP.connect([host[, port]])
+
+ Connect to a host on a given port. The defaults are to connect to the local
+ host at the standard SMTP port (25). If the hostname ends with a colon (``':'``)
+ followed by a number, that suffix will be stripped off and the number
+ interpreted as the port number to use. This method is automatically invoked by
+ the constructor if a host is specified during instantiation. Returns a
+ 2-tuple of the response code and message sent by the server in its
+ connection response.
+
+
+.. method:: SMTP.helo([hostname])
+
+ Identify yourself to the SMTP server using ``HELO``. The hostname argument
+ defaults to the fully qualified domain name of the local host.
+ The message returned by the server is stored as the :attr:`helo_resp` attribute
+ of the object.
+
+ In normal operation it should not be necessary to call this method explicitly.
+ It will be implicitly called by the :meth:`sendmail` when necessary.
+
+
+.. method:: SMTP.ehlo([hostname])
+
+ Identify yourself to an ESMTP server using ``EHLO``. The hostname argument
+ defaults to the fully qualified domain name of the local host. Examine the
+ response for ESMTP option and store them for use by :meth:`has_extn`.
+ Also sets several informational attributes: the message returned by
+ the server is stored as the :attr:`ehlo_resp` attribute, :attr:`does_esmtp`
+ is set to true or false depending on whether the server supports ESMTP, and
+ :attr:`esmtp_features` will be a dictionary containing the names of the
+ SMTP service extensions this server supports, and their
+ parameters (if any).
+
+ Unless you wish to use :meth:`has_extn` before sending mail, it should not be
+ necessary to call this method explicitly. It will be implicitly called by
+ :meth:`sendmail` when necessary.
+
+.. method:: SMTP.ehlo_or_helo_if_needed()
+
+ This method call :meth:`ehlo` and or :meth:`helo` if there has been no
+ previous ``EHLO`` or ``HELO`` command this session. It tries ESMTP ``EHLO``
+ first.
+
+ :exc:`SMTPHeloError`
+ The server didn't reply properly to the ``HELO`` greeting.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+.. method:: SMTP.has_extn(name)
+
+ Return :const:`True` if *name* is in the set of SMTP service extensions returned
+ by the server, :const:`False` otherwise. Case is ignored.
+
+
+.. method:: SMTP.verify(address)
+
+ Check the validity of an address on this server using SMTP ``VRFY``. Returns a
+ tuple consisting of code 250 and a full :rfc:`822` address (including human
+ name) if the user address is valid. Otherwise returns an SMTP error code of 400
+ or greater and an error string.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Many sites disable SMTP ``VRFY`` in order to foil spammers.
+
+
+.. method:: SMTP.login(user, password)
+
+ Log in on an SMTP server that requires authentication. The arguments are the
+ username and the password to authenticate with. If there has been no previous
+ ``EHLO`` or ``HELO`` command this session, this method tries ESMTP ``EHLO``
+ first. This method will return normally if the authentication was successful, or
+ may raise the following exceptions:
+
+ :exc:`SMTPHeloError`
+ The server didn't reply properly to the ``HELO`` greeting.
+
+ :exc:`SMTPAuthenticationError`
+ The server didn't accept the username/password combination.
+
+ :exc:`SMTPException`
+ No suitable authentication method was found.
+
+
+.. method:: SMTP.starttls([keyfile[, certfile]])
+
+ Put the SMTP connection in TLS (Transport Layer Security) mode. All SMTP
+ commands that follow will be encrypted. You should then call :meth:`ehlo`
+ again.
+
+ If *keyfile* and *certfile* are provided, these are passed to the :mod:`socket`
+ module's :func:`ssl` function.
+
+ If there has been no previous ``EHLO`` or ``HELO`` command this session,
+ this method tries ESMTP ``EHLO`` first.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+
+ :exc:`SMTPHeloError`
+ The server didn't reply properly to the ``HELO`` greeting.
+
+ :exc:`SMTPException`
+ The server does not support the STARTTLS extension.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+
+ :exc:`RuntimeError`
+ SSL/TLS support is not available to your Python interpreter.
+
+
+.. method:: SMTP.sendmail(from_addr, to_addrs, msg[, mail_options, rcpt_options])
+
+ Send mail. The required arguments are an :rfc:`822` from-address string, a list
+ of :rfc:`822` to-address strings (a bare string will be treated as a list with 1
+ address), and a message string. The caller may pass a list of ESMTP options
+ (such as ``8bitmime``) to be used in ``MAIL FROM`` commands as *mail_options*.
+ ESMTP options (such as ``DSN`` commands) that should be used with all ``RCPT``
+ commands can be passed as *rcpt_options*. (If you need to use different ESMTP
+ options to different recipients you have to use the low-level methods such as
+ :meth:`mail`, :meth:`rcpt` and :meth:`data` to send the message.)
+
+ .. note::
+
+ The *from_addr* and *to_addrs* parameters are used to construct the message
+ envelope used by the transport agents. The :class:`SMTP` does not modify the
+ message headers in any way.
+
+ If there has been no previous ``EHLO`` or ``HELO`` command this session, this
+ method tries ESMTP ``EHLO`` first. If the server does ESMTP, message size and
+ each of the specified options will be passed to it (if the option is in the
+ feature set the server advertises). If ``EHLO`` fails, ``HELO`` will be tried
+ and ESMTP options suppressed.
+
+ This method will return normally if the mail is accepted for at least one
+ recipient. Otherwise it will raise an exception. That is, if this method does
+ not raise an exception, then someone should get your mail. If this method does
+ not raise an exception, it returns a dictionary, with one entry for each
+ recipient that was refused. Each entry contains a tuple of the SMTP error code
+ and the accompanying error message sent by the server.
+
+ This method may raise the following exceptions:
+
+ :exc:`SMTPRecipientsRefused`
+ All recipients were refused. Nobody got the mail. The :attr:`recipients`
+ attribute of the exception object is a dictionary with information about the
+ refused recipients (like the one returned when at least one recipient was
+ accepted).
+
+ :exc:`SMTPHeloError`
+ The server didn't reply properly to the ``HELO`` greeting.
+
+ :exc:`SMTPSenderRefused`
+ The server didn't accept the *from_addr*.
+
+ :exc:`SMTPDataError`
+ The server replied with an unexpected error code (other than a refusal of a
+ recipient).
+
+ Unless otherwise noted, the connection will be open even after an exception is
+ raised.
+
+
+.. method:: SMTP.quit()
+
+ Terminate the SMTP session and close the connection. Return the result of
+ the SMTP ``QUIT`` command.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ Return a value.
+
+
+Low-level methods corresponding to the standard SMTP/ESMTP commands ``HELP``,
+``RSET``, ``NOOP``, ``MAIL``, ``RCPT``, and ``DATA`` are also supported.
+Normally these do not need to be called directly, so they are not documented
+here. For details, consult the module code.
+
+
+.. _smtp-example:
+
+SMTP Example
+------------
+
+This example prompts the user for addresses needed in the message envelope ('To'
+and 'From' addresses), and the message to be delivered. Note that the headers
+to be included with the message must be included in the message as entered; this
+example doesn't do any processing of the :rfc:`822` headers. In particular, the
+'To' and 'From' addresses must be included in the message headers explicitly. ::
+
+ import smtplib
+
+ def prompt(prompt):
+ return raw_input(prompt).strip()

+
+.. index::
+ single: A-LAW
+ single: u-LAW
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/sndhdr.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`sndhdr` provides utility functions which attempt to determine the type
+of sound data which is in a file. When these functions are able to determine
+what type of sound data is stored in a file, they return a tuple ``(type,
+sampling_rate, channels, frames, bits_per_sample)``. The value for *type*
+indicates the data type and will be one of the strings ``'aifc'``, ``'aiff'``,
+``'au'``, ``'hcom'``, ``'sndr'``, ``'sndt'``, ``'voc'``, ``'wav'``, ``'8svx'``,
+``'sb'``, ``'ub'``, or ``'ul'``. The *sampling_rate* will be either the actual
+value or ``0`` if unknown or difficult to decode. Similarly, *channels* will be
+either the number of channels or ``0`` if it cannot be determined or if the
+value is difficult to decode. The value for *frames* will be either the number
+of frames or ``-1``. The last item in the tuple, *bits_per_sample*, will either
+be the sample size in bits or ``'A'`` for A-LAW or ``'U'`` for u-LAW.
+
+

+:mod:`socket` --- Low-level networking interface
+================================================
+
+.. module:: socket
+ :synopsis: Low-level networking interface.
+
+
+This module provides access to the BSD *socket* interface. It is available on
+all modern Unix systems, Windows, Mac OS X, BeOS, OS/2, and probably additional
+platforms.
+
+.. note::
+
+ Some behavior may be platform dependent, since calls are made to the operating
+ system socket APIs.
+
+For an introduction to socket programming (in C), see the following papers: An
+Introductory 4.3BSD Interprocess Communication Tutorial, by Stuart Sechrest and
+An Advanced 4.3BSD Interprocess Communication Tutorial, by Samuel J. Leffler et
+al, both in the UNIX Programmer's Manual, Supplementary Documents 1 (sections
+PS1:7 and PS1:8). The platform-specific reference material for the various
+socket-related system calls are also a valuable source of information on the
+details of socket semantics. For Unix, refer to the manual pages; for Windows,
+see the WinSock (or Winsock 2) specification. For IPv6-ready APIs, readers may
+want to refer to :rfc:`3493` titled Basic Socket Interface Extensions for IPv6.
+
+.. index:: object: socket
+
+The Python interface is a straightforward transliteration of the Unix system
+call and library interface for sockets to Python's object-oriented style: the
+:func:`.socket` function returns a :dfn:`socket object` whose methods implement
+the various socket system calls. Parameter types are somewhat higher-level than
+in the C interface: as with :meth:`read` and :meth:`write` operations on Python
+files, buffer allocation on receive operations is automatic, and buffer length
+is implicit on send operations.
+
+Socket addresses are represented as follows: A single string is used for the
+:const:`AF_UNIX` address family. A pair ``(host, port)`` is used for the
+:const:`AF_INET` address family, where *host* is a string representing either a
+hostname in Internet domain notation like ``'daring.cwi.nl'`` or an IPv4 address
+like ``'100.50.200.5'``, and *port* is an integer. For
+:const:`AF_INET6` address family, a four-tuple ``(host, port, flowinfo,
+scopeid)`` is used, where *flowinfo* and *scopeid* represents ``sin6_flowinfo``
+and ``sin6_scope_id`` member in :const:`struct sockaddr_in6` in C. For
+:mod:`socket` module methods, *flowinfo* and *scopeid* can be omitted just for
+backward compatibility. Note, however, omission of *scopeid* can cause problems
+in manipulating scoped IPv6 addresses. Other address families are currently not
+supported. The address format required by a particular socket object is
+automatically selected based on the address family specified when the socket
+object was created.
+
+For IPv4 addresses, two special forms are accepted instead of a host address:
+the empty string represents :const:`INADDR_ANY`, and the string
+``'<broadcast>'`` represents :const:`INADDR_BROADCAST`. The behavior is not
+available for IPv6 for backward compatibility, therefore, you may want to avoid
+these if you intend to support IPv6 with your Python programs.
+
+If you use a hostname in the *host* portion of IPv4/v6 socket address, the
+program may show a nondeterministic behavior, as Python uses the first address
+returned from the DNS resolution. The socket address will be resolved
+differently into an actual IPv4/v6 address, depending on the results from DNS
+resolution and/or the host configuration. For deterministic behavior use a
+numeric address in *host* portion.

+ AF_NETLINK sockets are represented as pairs ``pid, groups``.
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.6
+ Linux-only support for TIPC is also available using the :const:`AF_TIPC`
+ address family. TIPC is an open, non-IP based networked protocol designed
+ for use in clustered computer environments. Addresses are represented by a
+ tuple, and the fields depend on the address type. The general tuple form is
+ ``(addr_type, v1, v2, v3 [, scope])``, where:
+
+ - *addr_type* is one of :const:`TIPC_ADDR_NAMESEQ`, :const:`TIPC_ADDR_NAME`,
+ or :const:`TIPC_ADDR_ID`.
+ - *scope* is one of :const:`TIPC_ZONE_SCOPE`, :const:`TIPC_CLUSTER_SCOPE`,
+ and :const:`TIPC_NODE_SCOPE`.
+ - If *addr_type* is :const:`TIPC_ADDR_NAME`, then *v1* is the server type, *v2* is
+ the port identifier, and *v3* should be 0.
+
+ If *addr_type* is :const:`TIPC_ADDR_NAMESEQ`, then *v1* is the server type, *v2*
+ is the lower port number, and *v3* is the upper port number.
+
+ If *addr_type* is :const:`TIPC_ADDR_ID`, then *v1* is the node, *v2* is the
+ reference, and *v3* should be set to 0.
+
+
+All errors raise exceptions. The normal exceptions for invalid argument types
+and out-of-memory conditions can be raised; errors related to socket or address
+semantics raise the error :exc:`socket.error`.
+
+Non-blocking mode is supported through :meth:`~socket.setblocking`. A
+generalization of this based on timeouts is supported through
+:meth:`~socket.settimeout`.
+
+The module :mod:`socket` exports the following constants and functions:
+
+
+.. exception:: error
+
+ .. index:: module: errno
+
+ This exception is raised for socket-related errors. The accompanying value is
+ either a string telling what went wrong or a pair ``(errno, string)``
+ representing an error returned by a system call, similar to the value
+ accompanying :exc:`os.error`. See the module :mod:`errno`, which contains names
+ for the error codes defined by the underlying operating system.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ :exc:`socket.error` is now a child class of :exc:`IOError`.
+
+
+.. exception:: herror
+
+ This exception is raised for address-related errors, i.e. for functions that use
+ *h_errno* in the C API, including :func:`gethostbyname_ex` and
+ :func:`gethostbyaddr`.
+
+ The accompanying value is a pair ``(h_errno, string)`` representing an error
+ returned by a library call. *string* represents the description of *h_errno*, as
+ returned by the :c:func:`hstrerror` C function.
+
+
+.. exception:: gaierror
+
+ This exception is raised for address-related errors, for :func:`getaddrinfo` and
+ :func:`getnameinfo`. The accompanying value is a pair ``(error, string)``
+ representing an error returned by a library call. *string* represents the
+ description of *error*, as returned by the :c:func:`gai_strerror` C function. The
+ *error* value will match one of the :const:`EAI_\*` constants defined in this
+ module.
+
+
+.. exception:: timeout
+
+ This exception is raised when a timeout occurs on a socket which has had
+ timeouts enabled via a prior call to :meth:`settimeout`. The accompanying value
+ is a string whose value is currently always "timed out".
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. data:: AF_UNIX
+ AF_INET
+ AF_INET6
+
+ These constants represent the address (and protocol) families, used for the
+ first argument to :func:`.socket`. If the :const:`AF_UNIX` constant is not
+ defined then this protocol is unsupported.
+
+
+.. data:: SOCK_STREAM
+ SOCK_DGRAM
+ SOCK_RAW
+ SOCK_RDM
+ SOCK_SEQPACKET
+
+ These constants represent the socket types, used for the second argument to
+ :func:`socket`. (Only :const:`SOCK_STREAM` and :const:`SOCK_DGRAM` appear to be
+ generally useful.)
+
+
+.. data:: SO_*
+ SOMAXCONN
+ MSG_*
+ SOL_*
+ IPPROTO_*
+ IPPORT_*
+ INADDR_*
+ IP_*
+ IPV6_*
+ EAI_*
+ AI_*
+ NI_*
+ TCP_*
+
+ Many constants of these forms, documented in the Unix documentation on sockets
+ and/or the IP protocol, are also defined in the socket module. They are
+ generally used in arguments to the :meth:`setsockopt` and :meth:`getsockopt`
+ methods of socket objects. In most cases, only those symbols that are defined
+ in the Unix header files are defined; for a few symbols, default values are
+ provided.
+
+.. data:: SIO_*
+ RCVALL_*
+
+ Constants for Windows' WSAIoctl(). The constants are used as arguments to the
+ :meth:`ioctl` method of socket objects.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+.. data:: TIPC_*
+
+ TIPC related constants, matching the ones exported by the C socket API. See
+ the TIPC documentation for more information.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+.. data:: has_ipv6
+
+ This constant contains a boolean value which indicates if IPv6 is supported on
+ this platform.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. function:: create_connection(address[, timeout[, source_address]])
+
+ Connect to a TCP service listening on the Internet *address* (a 2-tuple
+ ``(host, port)``), and return the socket object. This is a higher-level
+ function than :meth:`socket.connect`: if *host* is a non-numeric hostname,
+ it will try to resolve it for both :data:`AF_INET` and :data:`AF_INET6`,
+ and then try to connect to all possible addresses in turn until a
+ connection succeeds. This makes it easy to write clients that are
+ compatible to both IPv4 and IPv6.
+
+ Passing the optional *timeout* parameter will set the timeout on the
+ socket instance before attempting to connect. If no *timeout* is
+ supplied, the global default timeout setting returned by
+ :func:`getdefaulttimeout` is used.
+
+ If supplied, *source_address* must be a 2-tuple ``(host, port)`` for the
+ socket to bind to as its source address before connecting. If host or port
+ are '' or 0 respectively the OS default behavior will be used.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ *source_address* was added.
+
+
+.. function:: getaddrinfo(host, port[, family[, socktype[, proto[, flags]]]])
+
+ Translate the *host*/*port* argument into a sequence of 5-tuples that contain
+ all the necessary arguments for creating a socket connected to that service.
+ *host* is a domain name, a string representation of an IPv4/v6 address
+ or ``None``. *port* is a string service name such as ``'http'``, a numeric
+ port number or ``None``. By passing ``None`` as the value of *host*
+ and *port*, you can pass ``NULL`` to the underlying C API.
+
+ The *family*, *socktype* and *proto* arguments can be optionally specified
+ in order to narrow the list of addresses returned. By default, their value
+ is ``0``, meaning that the full range of results is selected.
+ The *flags* argument can be one or several of the ``AI_*`` constants,
+ and will influence how results are computed and returned. Its default value
+ is ``0``. For example, :const:`AI_NUMERICHOST` will disable domain name
+ resolution and will raise an error if *host* is a domain name.
+
+ The function returns a list of 5-tuples with the following structure:
+
+ ``(family, socktype, proto, canonname, sockaddr)``
+
+ In these tuples, *family*, *socktype*, *proto* are all integers and are
+ meant to be passed to the :func:`.socket` function. *canonname* will be
+ a string representing the canonical name of the *host* if
+ :const:`AI_CANONNAME` is part of the *flags* argument; else *canonname*
+ will be empty. *sockaddr* is a tuple describing a socket address, whose
+ format depends on the returned *family* (a ``(address, port)`` 2-tuple for
+ :const:`AF_INET`, a ``(address, port, flow info, scope id)`` 4-tuple for
+ :const:`AF_INET6`), and is meant to be passed to the :meth:`socket.connect`
+ method.
+
+ The following example fetches address information for a hypothetical TCP
+ connection to ``www.python.org`` on port 80 (results may differ on your
+ system if IPv6 isn't enabled)::
+
+ >>> socket.getaddrinfo("www.python.org", 80, 0, 0, socket.SOL_TCP)
+ [(2, 1, 6, '', ('82.94.164.162', 80)),
+ (10, 1, 6, '', ('2001:888:2000:d::a2', 80, 0, 0))]
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+
+.. function:: getfqdn([name])
+
+ Return a fully qualified domain name for *name*. If *name* is omitted or empty,
+ it is interpreted as the local host. To find the fully qualified name, the
+ hostname returned by :func:`gethostbyaddr` is checked, followed by aliases for the
+ host, if available. The first name which includes a period is selected. In
+ case no fully qualified domain name is available, the hostname as returned by
+ :func:`gethostname` is returned.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+
+.. function:: gethostbyname(hostname)
+
+ Translate a host name to IPv4 address format. The IPv4 address is returned as a
+ string, such as ``'100.50.200.5'``. If the host name is an IPv4 address itself
+ it is returned unchanged. See :func:`gethostbyname_ex` for a more complete
+ interface. :func:`gethostbyname` does not support IPv6 name resolution, and
+ :func:`getaddrinfo` should be used instead for IPv4/v6 dual stack support.
+
+
+.. function:: gethostbyname_ex(hostname)
+
+ Translate a host name to IPv4 address format, extended interface. Return a
+ triple ``(hostname, aliaslist, ipaddrlist)`` where *hostname* is the primary
+ host name responding to the given *ip_address*, *aliaslist* is a (possibly
+ empty) list of alternative host names for the same address, and *ipaddrlist* is
+ a list of IPv4 addresses for the same interface on the same host (often but not
+ always a single address). :func:`gethostbyname_ex` does not support IPv6 name
+ resolution, and :func:`getaddrinfo` should be used instead for IPv4/v6 dual
+ stack support.
+
+
+.. function:: gethostname()
+
+ Return a string containing the hostname of the machine where the Python
+ interpreter is currently executing.
+
+ If you want to know the current machine's IP address, you may want to use
+ ``gethostbyname(gethostname())``. This operation assumes that there is a
+ valid address-to-host mapping for the host, and the assumption does not
+ always hold.
+
+ Note: :func:`gethostname` doesn't always return the fully qualified domain
+ name; use ``getfqdn()`` (see above).
+
+
+.. function:: gethostbyaddr(ip_address)
+
+ Return a triple ``(hostname, aliaslist, ipaddrlist)`` where *hostname* is the
+ primary host name responding to the given *ip_address*, *aliaslist* is a
+ (possibly empty) list of alternative host names for the same address, and
+ *ipaddrlist* is a list of IPv4/v6 addresses for the same interface on the same
+ host (most likely containing only a single address). To find the fully qualified
+ domain name, use the function :func:`getfqdn`. :func:`gethostbyaddr` supports
+ both IPv4 and IPv6.
+
+
+.. function:: getnameinfo(sockaddr, flags)
+
+ Translate a socket address *sockaddr* into a 2-tuple ``(host, port)``. Depending
+ on the settings of *flags*, the result can contain a fully-qualified domain name
+ or numeric address representation in *host*. Similarly, *port* can contain a
+ string port name or a numeric port number.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+
+.. function:: getprotobyname(protocolname)
+
+ Translate an Internet protocol name (for example, ``'icmp'``) to a constant
+ suitable for passing as the (optional) third argument to the :func:`.socket`
+ function. This is usually only needed for sockets opened in "raw" mode
+ (:const:`SOCK_RAW`); for the normal socket modes, the correct protocol is chosen
+ automatically if the protocol is omitted or zero.
+
+
+.. function:: getservbyname(servicename[, protocolname])
+
+ Translate an Internet service name and protocol name to a port number for that
+ service. The optional protocol name, if given, should be ``'tcp'`` or
+ ``'udp'``, otherwise any protocol will match.
+
+
+.. function:: getservbyport(port[, protocolname])
+
+ Translate an Internet port number and protocol name to a service name for that
+ service. The optional protocol name, if given, should be ``'tcp'`` or
+ ``'udp'``, otherwise any protocol will match.
+
+
+.. function:: socket([family[, type[, proto]]])
+
+ Create a new socket using the given address family, socket type and protocol
+ number. The address family should be :const:`AF_INET` (the default),
+ :const:`AF_INET6` or :const:`AF_UNIX`. The socket type should be
+ :const:`SOCK_STREAM` (the default), :const:`SOCK_DGRAM` or perhaps one of the
+ other ``SOCK_`` constants. The protocol number is usually zero and may be
+ omitted in that case.
+
+
+.. function:: socketpair([family[, type[, proto]]])
+
+ Build a pair of connected socket objects using the given address family, socket
+ type, and protocol number. Address family, socket type, and protocol number are
+ as for the :func:`.socket` function above. The default family is :const:`AF_UNIX`
+ if defined on the platform; otherwise, the default is :const:`AF_INET`.
+ Availability: Unix.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+.. function:: fromfd(fd, family, type[, proto])
+
+ Duplicate the file descriptor *fd* (an integer as returned by a file object's
+ :meth:`fileno` method) and build a socket object from the result. Address
+ family, socket type and protocol number are as for the :func:`.socket` function
+ above. The file descriptor should refer to a socket, but this is not checked ---
+ subsequent operations on the object may fail if the file descriptor is invalid.
+ This function is rarely needed, but can be used to get or set socket options on
+ a socket passed to a program as standard input or output (such as a server
+ started by the Unix inet daemon). The socket is assumed to be in blocking mode.
+ Availability: Unix.
+
+
+.. function:: ntohl(x)
+
+ Convert 32-bit positive integers from network to host byte order. On machines
+ where the host byte order is the same as network byte order, this is a no-op;
+ otherwise, it performs a 4-byte swap operation.
+
+
+.. function:: ntohs(x)
+
+ Convert 16-bit positive integers from network to host byte order. On machines
+ where the host byte order is the same as network byte order, this is a no-op;
+ otherwise, it performs a 2-byte swap operation.
+
+
+.. function:: htonl(x)
+
+ Convert 32-bit positive integers from host to network byte order. On machines
+ where the host byte order is the same as network byte order, this is a no-op;
+ otherwise, it performs a 4-byte swap operation.
+
+
+.. function:: htons(x)
+
+ Convert 16-bit positive integers from host to network byte order. On machines
+ where the host byte order is the same as network byte order, this is a no-op;
+ otherwise, it performs a 2-byte swap operation.
+
+
+.. function:: inet_aton(ip_string)
+
+ Convert an IPv4 address from dotted-quad string format (for example,
+ '123.45.67.89') to 32-bit packed binary format, as a string four characters in
+ length. This is useful when conversing with a program that uses the standard C
+ library and needs objects of type :c:type:`struct in_addr`, which is the C type
+ for the 32-bit packed binary this function returns.
+
+ :func:`inet_aton` also accepts strings with less than three dots; see the
+ Unix manual page :manpage:`inet(3)` for details.
+
+ If the IPv4 address string passed to this function is invalid,
+ :exc:`socket.error` will be raised. Note that exactly what is valid depends on
+ the underlying C implementation of :c:func:`inet_aton`.
+
+ :func:`inet_aton` does not support IPv6, and :func:`inet_pton` should be used
+ instead for IPv4/v6 dual stack support.
+
+
+.. function:: inet_ntoa(packed_ip)
+
+ Convert a 32-bit packed IPv4 address (a string four characters in length) to its
+ standard dotted-quad string representation (for example, '123.45.67.89'). This
+ is useful when conversing with a program that uses the standard C library and
+ needs objects of type :c:type:`struct in_addr`, which is the C type for the
+ 32-bit packed binary data this function takes as an argument.
+
+ If the string passed to this function is not exactly 4 bytes in length,
+ :exc:`socket.error` will be raised. :func:`inet_ntoa` does not support IPv6, and
+ :func:`inet_ntop` should be used instead for IPv4/v6 dual stack support.
+
+
+.. function:: inet_pton(address_family, ip_string)
+
+ Convert an IP address from its family-specific string format to a packed, binary
+ format. :func:`inet_pton` is useful when a library or network protocol calls for
+ an object of type :c:type:`struct in_addr` (similar to :func:`inet_aton`) or
+ :c:type:`struct in6_addr`.
+
+ Supported values for *address_family* are currently :const:`AF_INET` and
+ :const:`AF_INET6`. If the IP address string *ip_string* is invalid,
+ :exc:`socket.error` will be raised. Note that exactly what is valid depends on
+ both the value of *address_family* and the underlying implementation of
+ :c:func:`inet_pton`.

+
+
+.. function:: inet_ntop(address_family, packed_ip)

+ standard, family-specific string representation (for example, ``'7.10.0.5'`` or
+ ``'5aef:2b::8'``) :func:`inet_ntop` is useful when a library or network protocol
+ returns an object of type :c:type:`struct in_addr` (similar to :func:`inet_ntoa`)
+ or :c:type:`struct in6_addr`.
+
+ Supported values for *address_family* are currently :const:`AF_INET` and
+ :const:`AF_INET6`. If the string *packed_ip* is not the correct length for the

+
+ Availability: Unix (maybe not all platforms).
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. function:: getdefaulttimeout()
+
+ Return the default timeout in seconds (float) for new socket objects. A value

+ module is first imported, the default is ``None``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. function:: setdefaulttimeout(timeout)
+
+ Set the default timeout in seconds (float) for new socket objects. A value of

+
+Socket Objects
+--------------
+
+Socket objects have the following methods. Except for :meth:`makefile` these
+correspond to Unix system calls applicable to sockets.
+
+
+.. method:: socket.accept()
+
+ Accept a connection. The socket must be bound to an address and listening for
+ connections. The return value is a pair ``(conn, address)`` where *conn* is a
+ *new* socket object usable to send and receive data on the connection, and
+ *address* is the address bound to the socket on the other end of the connection.
+
+
+.. method:: socket.bind(address)
+
+ Bind the socket to *address*. The socket must not already be bound. (The format
+ of *address* depends on the address family --- see above.)
+
+ .. note::
+
+ This method has historically accepted a pair of parameters for :const:`AF_INET`
+ addresses instead of only a tuple. This was never intentional and is no longer
+ available in Python 2.0 and later.
+
+
+.. method:: socket.close()
+
+ Close the socket. All future operations on the socket object will fail. The
+ remote end will receive no more data (after queued data is flushed). Sockets are
+ automatically closed when they are garbage-collected.
+
+ .. note::
+ :meth:`close()` releases the resource associated with a connection but
+ does not necessarily close the connection immediately. If you want
+ to close the connection in a timely fashion, call :meth:`shutdown()`
+ before :meth:`close()`.
+
+
+.. method:: socket.connect(address)
+
+ Connect to a remote socket at *address*. (The format of *address* depends on the
+ address family --- see above.)
+
+ .. note::
+
+ This method has historically accepted a pair of parameters for :const:`AF_INET`
+ addresses instead of only a tuple. This was never intentional and is no longer
+ available in Python 2.0 and later.
+
+
+.. method:: socket.connect_ex(address)
+
+ Like ``connect(address)``, but return an error indicator instead of raising an
+ exception for errors returned by the C-level :c:func:`connect` call (other
+ problems, such as "host not found," can still raise exceptions). The error
+ indicator is ``0`` if the operation succeeded, otherwise the value of the
+ :c:data:`errno` variable. This is useful to support, for example, asynchronous
+ connects.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ This method has historically accepted a pair of parameters for :const:`AF_INET`
+ addresses instead of only a tuple. This was never intentional and is no longer
+ available in Python 2.0 and later.
+
+
+.. method:: socket.fileno()
+
+ Return the socket's file descriptor (a small integer). This is useful with
+ :func:`select.select`.
+
+ Under Windows the small integer returned by this method cannot be used where a
+ file descriptor can be used (such as :func:`os.fdopen`). Unix does not have
+ this limitation.
+
+
+.. method:: socket.getpeername()
+
+ Return the remote address to which the socket is connected. This is useful to
+ find out the port number of a remote IPv4/v6 socket, for instance. (The format
+ of the address returned depends on the address family --- see above.) On some
+ systems this function is not supported.
+
+
+.. method:: socket.getsockname()
+
+ Return the socket's own address. This is useful to find out the port number of
+ an IPv4/v6 socket, for instance. (The format of the address returned depends on
+ the address family --- see above.)
+
+
+.. method:: socket.getsockopt(level, optname[, buflen])
+
+ Return the value of the given socket option (see the Unix man page
+ :manpage:`getsockopt(2)`). The needed symbolic constants (:const:`SO_\*` etc.)
+ are defined in this module. If *buflen* is absent, an integer option is assumed
+ and its integer value is returned by the function. If *buflen* is present, it
+ specifies the maximum length of the buffer used to receive the option in, and
+ this buffer is returned as a string. It is up to the caller to decode the
+ contents of the buffer (see the optional built-in module :mod:`struct` for a way
+ to decode C structures encoded as strings).
+
+
+.. method:: socket.ioctl(control, option)
+
+ :platform: Windows
+
+ The :meth:`ioctl` method is a limited interface to the WSAIoctl system
+ interface. Please refer to the `Win32 documentation
+ <http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms741621%28VS.85%29.aspx>`_ for more
+ information.
+
+ On other platforms, the generic :func:`fcntl.fcntl` and :func:`fcntl.ioctl`
+ functions may be used; they accept a socket object as their first argument.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. method:: socket.listen(backlog)
+
+ Listen for connections made to the socket. The *backlog* argument specifies the
+ maximum number of queued connections and should be at least 0; the maximum value
+ is system-dependent (usually 5), the minimum value is forced to 0.
+
+
+.. method:: socket.makefile([mode[, bufsize]])
+
+ .. index:: single: I/O control; buffering
+
+ Return a :dfn:`file object` associated with the socket. (File objects are
+ described in :ref:`bltin-file-objects`.) The file object
+ references a :c:func:`dup`\ ped version of the socket file descriptor, so the
+ file object and socket object may be closed or garbage-collected independently.
+ The socket must be in blocking mode (it can not have a timeout). The optional
+ *mode* and *bufsize* arguments are interpreted the same way as by the built-in
+ :func:`file` function.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ On Windows, the file-like object created by :meth:`makefile` cannot be
+ used where a file object with a file descriptor is expected, such as the
+ stream arguments of :meth:`subprocess.Popen`.
+
+
+.. method:: socket.recv(bufsize[, flags])
+
+ Receive data from the socket. The return value is a string representing the
+ data received. The maximum amount of data to be received at once is specified
+ by *bufsize*. See the Unix manual page :manpage:`recv(2)` for the meaning of
+ the optional argument *flags*; it defaults to zero.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ For best match with hardware and network realities, the value of *bufsize*
+ should be a relatively small power of 2, for example, 4096.
+
+
+.. method:: socket.recvfrom(bufsize[, flags])
+
+ Receive data from the socket. The return value is a pair ``(string, address)``
+ where *string* is a string representing the data received and *address* is the
+ address of the socket sending the data. See the Unix manual page
+ :manpage:`recv(2)` for the meaning of the optional argument *flags*; it defaults
+ to zero. (The format of *address* depends on the address family --- see above.)
+
+
+.. method:: socket.recvfrom_into(buffer[, nbytes[, flags]])
+
+ Receive data from the socket, writing it into *buffer* instead of creating a
+ new string. The return value is a pair ``(nbytes, address)`` where *nbytes* is
+ the number of bytes received and *address* is the address of the socket sending
+ the data. See the Unix manual page :manpage:`recv(2)` for the meaning of the
+ optional argument *flags*; it defaults to zero. (The format of *address*
+ depends on the address family --- see above.)
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. method:: socket.recv_into(buffer[, nbytes[, flags]])
+
+ Receive up to *nbytes* bytes from the socket, storing the data into a buffer
+ rather than creating a new string. If *nbytes* is not specified (or 0),
+ receive up to the size available in the given buffer. Returns the number of
+ bytes received. See the Unix manual page :manpage:`recv(2)` for the meaning
+ of the optional argument *flags*; it defaults to zero.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. method:: socket.send(string[, flags])
+
+ Send data to the socket. The socket must be connected to a remote socket. The
+ optional *flags* argument has the same meaning as for :meth:`recv` above.
+ Returns the number of bytes sent. Applications are responsible for checking that
+ all data has been sent; if only some of the data was transmitted, the
+ application needs to attempt delivery of the remaining data. For further
+ information on this concept, consult the :ref:`socket-howto`.
+
+
+.. method:: socket.sendall(string[, flags])
+
+ Send data to the socket. The socket must be connected to a remote socket. The
+ optional *flags* argument has the same meaning as for :meth:`recv` above.
+ Unlike :meth:`send`, this method continues to send data from *string* until
+ either all data has been sent or an error occurs. ``None`` is returned on
+ success. On error, an exception is raised, and there is no way to determine how
+ much data, if any, was successfully sent.
+
+
+.. method:: socket.sendto(string, address)
+ socket.sendto(string, flags, address)
+
+ Send data to the socket. The socket should not be connected to a remote socket,
+ since the destination socket is specified by *address*. The optional *flags*
+ argument has the same meaning as for :meth:`recv` above. Return the number of
+ bytes sent. (The format of *address* depends on the address family --- see
+ above.)
+
+
+.. method:: socket.setblocking(flag)
+
+ Set blocking or non-blocking mode of the socket: if *flag* is 0, the socket is
+ set to non-blocking, else to blocking mode. Initially all sockets are in
+ blocking mode. In non-blocking mode, if a :meth:`recv` call doesn't find any
+ data, or if a :meth:`send` call can't immediately dispose of the data, a
+ :exc:`error` exception is raised; in blocking mode, the calls block until they
+ can proceed. ``s.setblocking(0)`` is equivalent to ``s.settimeout(0.0)``;
+ ``s.setblocking(1)`` is equivalent to ``s.settimeout(None)``.
+
+
+.. method:: socket.settimeout(value)
+
+ Set a timeout on blocking socket operations. The *value* argument can be a
+ nonnegative float expressing seconds, or ``None``. If a float is given,
+ subsequent socket operations will raise a :exc:`timeout` exception if the
+ timeout period *value* has elapsed before the operation has completed. Setting
+ a timeout of ``None`` disables timeouts on socket operations.
+ ``s.settimeout(0.0)`` is equivalent to ``s.setblocking(0)``;
+ ``s.settimeout(None)`` is equivalent to ``s.setblocking(1)``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. method:: socket.gettimeout()
+
+ Return the timeout in seconds (float) associated with socket operations, or
+ ``None`` if no timeout is set. This reflects the last call to
+ :meth:`setblocking` or :meth:`settimeout`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+Some notes on socket blocking and timeouts: A socket object can be in one of
+three modes: blocking, non-blocking, or timeout. Sockets are always created in
+blocking mode. In blocking mode, operations block until complete or
+the system returns an error (such as connection timed out). In
+non-blocking mode, operations fail (with an error that is unfortunately
+system-dependent) if they cannot be completed immediately. In timeout mode,
+operations fail if they cannot be completed within the timeout specified for the
+socket or if the system returns an error. The :meth:`~socket.setblocking`
+method is simply a shorthand for certain :meth:`~socket.settimeout` calls.
+
+Timeout mode internally sets the socket in non-blocking mode. The blocking and
+timeout modes are shared between file descriptors and socket objects that refer
+to the same network endpoint. A consequence of this is that file objects
+returned by the :meth:`~socket.makefile` method must only be used when the
+socket is in blocking mode; in timeout or non-blocking mode file operations
+that cannot be completed immediately will fail.
+
+Note that the :meth:`~socket.connect` operation is subject to the timeout
+setting, and in general it is recommended to call :meth:`~socket.settimeout`
+before calling :meth:`~socket.connect` or pass a timeout parameter to
+:meth:`create_connection`. The system network stack may return a connection
+timeout error of its own regardless of any Python socket timeout setting.
+
+
+.. method:: socket.setsockopt(level, optname, value)
+
+ .. index:: module: struct
+
+ Set the value of the given socket option (see the Unix manual page
+ :manpage:`setsockopt(2)`). The needed symbolic constants are defined in the
+ :mod:`socket` module (:const:`SO_\*` etc.). The value can be an integer or a
+ string representing a buffer. In the latter case it is up to the caller to
+ ensure that the string contains the proper bits (see the optional built-in
+ module :mod:`struct` for a way to encode C structures as strings).
+
+
+.. method:: socket.shutdown(how)
+
+ Shut down one or both halves of the connection. If *how* is :const:`SHUT_RD`,
+ further receives are disallowed. If *how* is :const:`SHUT_WR`, further sends
+ are disallowed. If *how* is :const:`SHUT_RDWR`, further sends and receives are
+ disallowed. Depending on the platform, shutting down one half of the connection
+ can also close the opposite half (e.g. on Mac OS X, ``shutdown(SHUT_WR)`` does
+ not allow further reads on the other end of the connection).
+
+Note that there are no methods :meth:`read` or :meth:`write`; use
+:meth:`~socket.recv` and :meth:`~socket.send` without *flags* argument instead.
+
+Socket objects also have these (read-only) attributes that correspond to the
+values given to the :class:`socket` constructor.
+
+
+.. attribute:: socket.family
+
+ The socket family.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. attribute:: socket.type
+
+ The socket type.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. attribute:: socket.proto
+
+ The socket protocol.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. _socket-example:
+
+Example
+-------
+
+Here are four minimal example programs using the TCP/IP protocol: a server that
+echoes all data that it receives back (servicing only one client), and a client
+using it. Note that a server must perform the sequence :func:`.socket`,
+:meth:`~socket.bind`, :meth:`~socket.listen`, :meth:`~socket.accept` (possibly
+repeating the :meth:`~socket.accept` to service more than one client), while a
+client only needs the sequence :func:`.socket`, :meth:`~socket.connect`. Also
+note that the server does not :meth:`~socket.sendall`/:meth:`~socket.recv` on
+the socket it is listening on but on the new socket returned by
+:meth:`~socket.accept`.
+
+The first two examples support IPv4 only. ::
+
+ # Echo server program
+ import socket
+
+ HOST = '' # Symbolic name meaning all available interfaces
+ PORT = 50007 # Arbitrary non-privileged port
+ s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
+ s.bind((HOST, PORT))
+ s.listen(1)
+ conn, addr = s.accept()
+ print 'Connected by', addr
+ while 1:
+ data = conn.recv(1024)
+ if not data: break
+ conn.sendall(data)
+ conn.close()
+
+::
+
+ # Echo client program
+ import socket
+
+ HOST = 'daring.cwi.nl' # The remote host
+ PORT = 50007 # The same port as used by the server
+ s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
+ s.connect((HOST, PORT))
+ s.sendall('Hello, world')
+ data = s.recv(1024)
+ s.close()
+ print 'Received', repr(data)
+
+The next two examples are identical to the above two, but support both IPv4 and
+IPv6. The server side will listen to the first address family available (it
+should listen to both instead). On most of IPv6-ready systems, IPv6 will take
+precedence and the server may not accept IPv4 traffic. The client side will try
+to connect to the all addresses returned as a result of the name resolution, and
+sends traffic to the first one connected successfully. ::
+
+ # Echo server program
+ import socket
+ import sys
+
+ HOST = None # Symbolic name meaning all available interfaces
+ PORT = 50007 # Arbitrary non-privileged port
+ s = None
+ for res in socket.getaddrinfo(HOST, PORT, socket.AF_UNSPEC,
+ socket.SOCK_STREAM, 0, socket.AI_PASSIVE):
+ af, socktype, proto, canonname, sa = res
+ try:
+ s = socket.socket(af, socktype, proto)
+ except socket.error as msg:
+ s = None
+ continue
+ try:
+ s.bind(sa)
+ s.listen(1)
+ except socket.error as msg:
+ s.close()
+ s = None
+ continue
+ break
+ if s is None:
+ print 'could not open socket'
+ sys.exit(1)
+ conn, addr = s.accept()
+ print 'Connected by', addr
+ while 1:
+ data = conn.recv(1024)
+ if not data: break
+ conn.send(data)
+ conn.close()
+
+::
+
+ # Echo client program
+ import socket
+ import sys
+
+ HOST = 'daring.cwi.nl' # The remote host
+ PORT = 50007 # The same port as used by the server
+ s = None
+ for res in socket.getaddrinfo(HOST, PORT, socket.AF_UNSPEC, socket.SOCK_STREAM):
+ af, socktype, proto, canonname, sa = res
+ try:
+ s = socket.socket(af, socktype, proto)
+ except socket.error as msg:
+ s = None
+ continue
+ try:
+ s.connect(sa)
+ except socket.error as msg:
+ s.close()
+ s = None
+ continue
+ break
+ if s is None:
+ print 'could not open socket'
+ sys.exit(1)
+ s.sendall('Hello, world')
+ data = s.recv(1024)
+ s.close()
+ print 'Received', repr(data)
+
+
+The last example shows how to write a very simple network sniffer with raw
+sockets on Windows. The example requires administrator privileges to modify
+the interface::
+
+ import socket
+
+ # the public network interface
+ HOST = socket.gethostbyname(socket.gethostname())
+
+ # create a raw socket and bind it to the public interface
+ s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_RAW, socket.IPPROTO_IP)
+ s.bind((HOST, 0))
+
+ # Include IP headers
+ s.setsockopt(socket.IPPROTO_IP, socket.IP_HDRINCL, 1)
+
+ # receive all packages
+ s.ioctl(socket.SIO_RCVALL, socket.RCVALL_ON)
+
+ # receive a package
+ print s.recvfrom(65565)
+
+ # disabled promiscuous mode
+ s.ioctl(socket.SIO_RCVALL, socket.RCVALL_OFF)
+
+
+Running an example several times with too small delay between executions, could
+lead to this error::
+
+ socket.error: [Errno 98] Address already in use
+
+This is because the previous execution has left the socket in a ``TIME_WAIT``
+state, and can't be immediately reused.
+
+There is a :mod:`socket` flag to set, in order to prevent this,
+:data:`socket.SO_REUSEADDR`::
+
+ s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
+ s.setsockopt(socket.SOL_SOCKET, socket.SO_REUSEADDR, 1)
+ s.bind((HOST, PORT))
+
+the :data:`SO_REUSEADDR` flag tells the kernel to reuse a local socket in
+``TIME_WAIT`` state, without waiting for its natural timeout to expire.

+:mod:`SocketServer` --- A framework for network servers
+=======================================================
+
+.. module:: SocketServer
+ :synopsis: A framework for network servers.
+
+.. note::
+
+ The :mod:`SocketServer` module has been renamed to :mod:`socketserver` in
+ Python 3. The :term:`2to3` tool will automatically adapt imports when
+ converting your sources to Python 3.
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/SocketServer.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`SocketServer` module simplifies the task of writing network servers.
+
+There are four basic server classes: :class:`TCPServer` uses the Internet TCP
+protocol, which provides for continuous streams of data between the client and
+server. :class:`UDPServer` uses datagrams, which are discrete packets of
+information that may arrive out of order or be lost while in transit. The more
+infrequently used :class:`UnixStreamServer` and :class:`UnixDatagramServer`
+classes are similar, but use Unix domain sockets; they're not available on
+non-Unix platforms. For more details on network programming, consult a book
+such as
+W. Richard Steven's UNIX Network Programming or Ralph Davis's Win32 Network
+Programming.
+
+These four classes process requests :dfn:`synchronously`; each request must be
+completed before the next request can be started. This isn't suitable if each
+request takes a long time to complete, because it requires a lot of computation,
+or because it returns a lot of data which the client is slow to process. The
+solution is to create a separate process or thread to handle each request; the
+:class:`ForkingMixIn` and :class:`ThreadingMixIn` mix-in classes can be used to
+support asynchronous behaviour.
+
+Creating a server requires several steps. First, you must create a request
+handler class by subclassing the :class:`BaseRequestHandler` class and
+overriding its :meth:`handle` method; this method will process incoming
+requests. Second, you must instantiate one of the server classes, passing it
+the server's address and the request handler class. Finally, call the
+:meth:`handle_request` or :meth:`serve_forever` method of the server object to
+process one or many requests.
+
+When inheriting from :class:`ThreadingMixIn` for threaded connection behavior,
+you should explicitly declare how you want your threads to behave on an abrupt
+shutdown. The :class:`ThreadingMixIn` class defines an attribute
+*daemon_threads*, which indicates whether or not the server should wait for
+thread termination. You should set the flag explicitly if you would like threads
+to behave autonomously; the default is :const:`False`, meaning that Python will
+not exit until all threads created by :class:`ThreadingMixIn` have exited.
+
+Server classes have the same external methods and attributes, no matter what
+network protocol they use.
+
+
+Server Creation Notes
+---------------------
+
+There are five classes in an inheritance diagram, four of which represent
+synchronous servers of four types::
+
+ +------------+
+ | BaseServer |
+ +------------+
+ |
+ v
+ +-----------+ +------------------+
+ | TCPServer |------->| UnixStreamServer |
+ +-----------+ +------------------+
+ |
+ v
+ +-----------+ +--------------------+
+ | UDPServer |------->| UnixDatagramServer |
+ +-----------+ +--------------------+
+
+Note that :class:`UnixDatagramServer` derives from :class:`UDPServer`, not from
+:class:`UnixStreamServer` --- the only difference between an IP and a Unix
+stream server is the address family, which is simply repeated in both Unix
+server classes.
+
+Forking and threading versions of each type of server can be created using the
+:class:`ForkingMixIn` and :class:`ThreadingMixIn` mix-in classes. For instance,
+a threading UDP server class is created as follows::
+
+ class ThreadingUDPServer(ThreadingMixIn, UDPServer): pass
+
+The mix-in class must come first, since it overrides a method defined in
+:class:`UDPServer`. Setting the various attributes also change the
+behavior of the underlying server mechanism.
+
+To implement a service, you must derive a class from :class:`BaseRequestHandler`
+and redefine its :meth:`handle` method. You can then run various versions of
+the service by combining one of the server classes with your request handler
+class. The request handler class must be different for datagram or stream
+services. This can be hidden by using the handler subclasses
+:class:`StreamRequestHandler` or :class:`DatagramRequestHandler`.
+
+Of course, you still have to use your head! For instance, it makes no sense to
+use a forking server if the service contains state in memory that can be
+modified by different requests, since the modifications in the child process
+would never reach the initial state kept in the parent process and passed to
+each child. In this case, you can use a threading server, but you will probably
+have to use locks to protect the integrity of the shared data.
+
+On the other hand, if you are building an HTTP server where all data is stored
+externally (for instance, in the file system), a synchronous class will
+essentially render the service "deaf" while one request is being handled --
+which may be for a very long time if a client is slow to receive all the data it
+has requested. Here a threading or forking server is appropriate.
+
+In some cases, it may be appropriate to process part of a request synchronously,
+but to finish processing in a forked child depending on the request data. This
+can be implemented by using a synchronous server and doing an explicit fork in
+the request handler class :meth:`handle` method.
+
+Another approach to handling multiple simultaneous requests in an environment
+that supports neither threads nor :func:`fork` (or where these are too expensive
+or inappropriate for the service) is to maintain an explicit table of partially
+finished requests and to use :func:`select` to decide which request to work on
+next (or whether to handle a new incoming request). This is particularly
+important for stream services where each client can potentially be connected for
+a long time (if threads or subprocesses cannot be used). See :mod:`asyncore` for
+another way to manage this.
+
+.. XXX should data and methods be intermingled, or separate?
+ how should the distinction between class and instance variables be drawn?
+
+
+Server Objects
+--------------
+
+.. class:: BaseServer
+
+ This is the superclass of all Server objects in the module. It defines the
+ interface, given below, but does not implement most of the methods, which is
+ done in subclasses.
+
+
+.. method:: BaseServer.fileno()
+
+ Return an integer file descriptor for the socket on which the server is
+ listening. This function is most commonly passed to :func:`select.select`, to
+ allow monitoring multiple servers in the same process.
+
+
+.. method:: BaseServer.handle_request()
+
+ Process a single request. This function calls the following methods in
+ order: :meth:`get_request`, :meth:`verify_request`, and
+ :meth:`process_request`. If the user-provided :meth:`handle` method of the
+ handler class raises an exception, the server's :meth:`handle_error` method
+ will be called. If no request is received within :attr:`self.timeout`
+ seconds, :meth:`handle_timeout` will be called and :meth:`handle_request`
+ will return.
+
+
+.. method:: BaseServer.serve_forever(poll_interval=0.5)
+
+ Handle requests until an explicit :meth:`shutdown` request.
+ Poll for shutdown every *poll_interval* seconds. Ignores :attr:`self.timeout`.
+ If you need to do periodic tasks, do them in another thread.
+
+
+.. method:: BaseServer.shutdown()
+
+ Tell the :meth:`serve_forever` loop to stop and wait until it does.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. attribute:: BaseServer.address_family
+
+ The family of protocols to which the server's socket belongs.
+ Common examples are :const:`socket.AF_INET` and :const:`socket.AF_UNIX`.
+
+
+.. attribute:: BaseServer.RequestHandlerClass
+
+ The user-provided request handler class; an instance of this class is created
+ for each request.
+
+
+.. attribute:: BaseServer.server_address
+
+ The address on which the server is listening. The format of addresses varies
+ depending on the protocol family; see the documentation for the socket module
+ for details. For Internet protocols, this is a tuple containing a string giving
+ the address, and an integer port number: ``('127.0.0.1', 80)``, for example.
+
+
+.. attribute:: BaseServer.socket
+
+ The socket object on which the server will listen for incoming requests.
+
+
+The server classes support the following class variables:
+
+.. XXX should class variables be covered before instance variables, or vice versa?
+
+.. attribute:: BaseServer.allow_reuse_address
+
+ Whether the server will allow the reuse of an address. This defaults to
+ :const:`False`, and can be set in subclasses to change the policy.
+
+
+.. attribute:: BaseServer.request_queue_size
+
+ The size of the request queue. If it takes a long time to process a single
+ request, any requests that arrive while the server is busy are placed into a
+ queue, up to :attr:`request_queue_size` requests. Once the queue is full,
+ further requests from clients will get a "Connection denied" error. The default
+ value is usually 5, but this can be overridden by subclasses.
+
+
+.. attribute:: BaseServer.socket_type
+
+ The type of socket used by the server; :const:`socket.SOCK_STREAM` and
+ :const:`socket.SOCK_DGRAM` are two common values.
+
+
+.. attribute:: BaseServer.timeout
+
+ Timeout duration, measured in seconds, or :const:`None` if no timeout is
+ desired. If :meth:`handle_request` receives no incoming requests within the
+ timeout period, the :meth:`handle_timeout` method is called.
+
+
+There are various server methods that can be overridden by subclasses of base
+server classes like :class:`TCPServer`; these methods aren't useful to external
+users of the server object.
+
+.. XXX should the default implementations of these be documented, or should
+ it be assumed that the user will look at SocketServer.py?
+
+.. method:: BaseServer.finish_request()
+
+ Actually processes the request by instantiating :attr:`RequestHandlerClass` and
+ calling its :meth:`handle` method.
+
+
+.. method:: BaseServer.get_request()
+
+ Must accept a request from the socket, and return a 2-tuple containing the *new*
+ socket object to be used to communicate with the client, and the client's
+ address.
+
+
+.. method:: BaseServer.handle_error(request, client_address)
+
+ This function is called if the :attr:`RequestHandlerClass`'s :meth:`handle`
+ method raises an exception. The default action is to print the traceback to
+ standard output and continue handling further requests.
+
+
+.. method:: BaseServer.handle_timeout()
+
+ This function is called when the :attr:`timeout` attribute has been set to a
+ value other than :const:`None` and the timeout period has passed with no
+ requests being received. The default action for forking servers is
+ to collect the status of any child processes that have exited, while
+ in threading servers this method does nothing.
+
+
+.. method:: BaseServer.process_request(request, client_address)
+
+ Calls :meth:`finish_request` to create an instance of the
+ :attr:`RequestHandlerClass`. If desired, this function can create a new process
+ or thread to handle the request; the :class:`ForkingMixIn` and
+ :class:`ThreadingMixIn` classes do this.
+
+
+.. Is there any point in documenting the following two functions?
+ What would the purpose of overriding them be: initializing server
+ instance variables, adding new network families?
+
+.. method:: BaseServer.server_activate()
+
+ Called by the server's constructor to activate the server. The default behavior
+ just :meth:`listen`\ s to the server's socket. May be overridden.
+
+
+.. method:: BaseServer.server_bind()
+
+ Called by the server's constructor to bind the socket to the desired address.
+ May be overridden.
+
+
+.. method:: BaseServer.verify_request(request, client_address)
+
+ Must return a Boolean value; if the value is :const:`True`, the request will be
+ processed, and if it's :const:`False`, the request will be denied. This function
+ can be overridden to implement access controls for a server. The default
+ implementation always returns :const:`True`.
+
+
+RequestHandler Objects
+----------------------
+
+The request handler class must define a new :meth:`handle` method, and can
+override any of the following methods. A new instance is created for each
+request.
+
+
+.. method:: RequestHandler.finish()
+
+ Called after the :meth:`handle` method to perform any clean-up actions
+ required. The default implementation does nothing. If :meth:`setup`
+ raises an exception, this function will not be called.
+
+
+.. method:: RequestHandler.handle()
+
+ This function must do all the work required to service a request. The
+ default implementation does nothing. Several instance attributes are
+ available to it; the request is available as :attr:`self.request`; the client
+ address as :attr:`self.client_address`; and the server instance as
+ :attr:`self.server`, in case it needs access to per-server information.
+
+ The type of :attr:`self.request` is different for datagram or stream
+ services. For stream services, :attr:`self.request` is a socket object; for
+ datagram services, :attr:`self.request` is a pair of string and socket.
+ However, this can be hidden by using the request handler subclasses
+ :class:`StreamRequestHandler` or :class:`DatagramRequestHandler`, which
+ override the :meth:`setup` and :meth:`finish` methods, and provide
+ :attr:`self.rfile` and :attr:`self.wfile` attributes. :attr:`self.rfile` and
+ :attr:`self.wfile` can be read or written, respectively, to get the request
+ data or return data to the client.
+
+
+.. method:: RequestHandler.setup()
+
+ Called before the :meth:`handle` method to perform any initialization actions
+ required. The default implementation does nothing.
+

+An alternative request handler class that makes use of streams (file-like
+objects that simplify communication by providing the standard file interface)::
+
+ class MyTCPHandler(SocketServer.StreamRequestHandler):
+
+ def handle(self):
+ # self.rfile is a file-like object created by the handler;
+ # we can now use e.g. readline() instead of raw recv() calls
+ self.data = self.rfile.readline().strip()
+ print "{} wrote:".format(self.client_address[0])
+ print self.data
+ # Likewise, self.wfile is a file-like object used to write back
+ # to the client
+ self.wfile.write(self.data.upper())
+
+The difference is that the ``readline()`` call in the second handler will call
+``recv()`` multiple times until it encounters a newline character, while the
+single ``recv()`` call in the first handler will just return what has been sent
+from the client in one ``sendall()`` call.
+
+
+This is the client side::
+
+ import socket
+ import sys
+
+ HOST, PORT = "localhost", 9999
+ data = " ".join(sys.argv[1:])
+
+ # Create a socket (SOCK_STREAM means a TCP socket)
+ sock = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
+
+ try:
+ # Connect to server and send data
+ sock.connect((HOST, PORT))
+ sock.sendall(data + "\n")
+
+ # Receive data from the server and shut down
+ received = sock.recv(1024)
+ finally:
+ sock.close()
+
+ print "Sent: {}".format(data)
+ print "Received: {}".format(received)
+
+
+The output of the example should look something like this:
+
+Server::
+
+ $ python TCPServer.py
+ 127.0.0.1 wrote:
+ hello world with TCP
+ 127.0.0.1 wrote:

+
+
+:class:`SocketServer.UDPServer` Example
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+This is the server side::
+
+ import SocketServer
+
+ class MyUDPHandler(SocketServer.BaseRequestHandler):
+ """
+ This class works similar to the TCP handler class, except that
+ self.request consists of a pair of data and client socket, and since
+ there is no connection the client address must be given explicitly
+ when sending data back via sendto().
+ """
+
+ def handle(self):
+ data = self.request[0].strip()
+ socket = self.request[1]
+ print "{} wrote:".format(self.client_address[0])
+ print data
+ socket.sendto(data.upper(), self.client_address)
+
+ if __name__ == "__main__":
+ HOST, PORT = "localhost", 9999
+ server = SocketServer.UDPServer((HOST, PORT), MyUDPHandler)
+ server.serve_forever()
+
+This is the client side::
+
+ import socket
+ import sys
+
+ HOST, PORT = "localhost", 9999
+ data = " ".join(sys.argv[1:])
+
+ # SOCK_DGRAM is the socket type to use for UDP sockets
+ sock = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_DGRAM)
+
+ # As you can see, there is no connect() call; UDP has no connections.
+ # Instead, data is directly sent to the recipient via sendto().
+ sock.sendto(data + "\n", (HOST, PORT))
+ received = sock.recv(1024)
+
+ print "Sent: {}".format(data)
+ print "Received: {}".format(received)
+
+The output of the example should look exactly like for the TCP server example.
+
+
+Asynchronous Mixins
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+To build asynchronous handlers, use the :class:`ThreadingMixIn` and
+:class:`ForkingMixIn` classes.
+
+An example for the :class:`ThreadingMixIn` class::
+
+ import socket
+ import threading
+ import SocketServer
+
+ class ThreadedTCPRequestHandler(SocketServer.BaseRequestHandler):
+
+ def handle(self):
+ data = self.request.recv(1024)
+ cur_thread = threading.current_thread()
+ response = "{}: {}".format(cur_thread.name, data)
+ self.request.sendall(response)
+
+ class ThreadedTCPServer(SocketServer.ThreadingMixIn, SocketServer.TCPServer):
+ pass
+
+ def client(ip, port, message):
+ sock = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
+ sock.connect((ip, port))
+ try:
+ sock.sendall(message)
+ response = sock.recv(1024)
+ print "Received: {}".format(response)
+ finally:
+ sock.close()
+
+ if __name__ == "__main__":
+ # Port 0 means to select an arbitrary unused port
+ HOST, PORT = "localhost", 0
+
+ server = ThreadedTCPServer((HOST, PORT), ThreadedTCPRequestHandler)
+ ip, port = server.server_address
+
+ # Start a thread with the server -- that thread will then start one
+ # more thread for each request
+ server_thread = threading.Thread(target=server.serve_forever)
+ # Exit the server thread when the main thread terminates
+ server_thread.daemon = True
+ server_thread.start()
+ print "Server loop running in thread:", server_thread.name
+
+ client(ip, port, "Hello World 1")
+ client(ip, port, "Hello World 2")
+ client(ip, port, "Hello World 3")
+
+ server.shutdown()
+
+
+The output of the example should look something like this::
+
+ $ python ThreadedTCPServer.py
+ Server loop running in thread: Thread-1
+ Received: Thread-2: Hello World 1
+ Received: Thread-3: Hello World 2
+ Received: Thread-4: Hello World 3
+
+
+The :class:`ForkingMixIn` class is used in the same way, except that the server
+will spawn a new process for each request.

+:mod:`sqlite3` --- DB-API 2.0 interface for SQLite databases
+============================================================
+
+.. module:: sqlite3
+ :synopsis: A DB-API 2.0 implementation using SQLite 3.x.
+.. sectionauthor:: Gerhard Häring <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+SQLite is a C library that provides a lightweight disk-based database that
+doesn't require a separate server process and allows accessing the database
+using a nonstandard variant of the SQL query language. Some applications can use
+SQLite for internal data storage. It's also possible to prototype an
+application using SQLite and then port the code to a larger database such as
+PostgreSQL or Oracle.
+
+The sqlite3 module was written by Gerhard Häring. It provides a SQL interface
+compliant with the DB-API 2.0 specification described by :pep:`249`.
+
+To use the module, you must first create a :class:`Connection` object that
+represents the database. Here the data will be stored in the
+:file:`example.db` file::
+
+ import sqlite3
+ conn = sqlite3.connect('example.db')
+
+You can also supply the special name ``:memory:`` to create a database in RAM.
+
+Once you have a :class:`Connection`, you can create a :class:`Cursor` object
+and call its :meth:`~Cursor.execute` method to perform SQL commands::
+
+ c = conn.cursor()
+
+ # Create table
+ c.execute('''CREATE TABLE stocks
+ (date text, trans text, symbol text, qty real, price real)''')
+
+ # Insert a row of data
+ c.execute("INSERT INTO stocks VALUES ('2006-01-05','BUY','RHAT',100,35.14)")
+
+ # Save (commit) the changes
+ conn.commit()
+
+ # We can also close the connection if we are done with it.
+ # Just be sure any changes have been committed or they will be lost.
+ conn.close()
+
+The data you've saved is persistent and is available in subsequent sessions::
+
+ import sqlite3
+ conn = sqlite3.connect('example.db')
+ c = conn.cursor()
+
+Usually your SQL operations will need to use values from Python variables. You
+shouldn't assemble your query using Python's string operations because doing so
+is insecure; it makes your program vulnerable to an SQL injection attack
+(see http://xkcd.com/327/ for humorous example of what can go wrong).
+
+Instead, use the DB-API's parameter substitution. Put ``?`` as a placeholder
+wherever you want to use a value, and then provide a tuple of values as the
+second argument to the cursor's :meth:`~Cursor.execute` method. (Other database
+modules may use a different placeholder, such as ``%s`` or ``:1``.) For
+example::
+
+ # Never do this -- insecure!
+ symbol = 'RHAT'
+ c.execute("SELECT * FROM stocks WHERE symbol = '%s'" % symbol)
+
+ # Do this instead
+ t = ('RHAT',)
+ c.execute('SELECT * FROM stocks WHERE symbol=?', t)
+ print c.fetchone()
+
+ # Larger example that inserts many records at a time
+ purchases = [('2006-03-28', 'BUY', 'IBM', 1000, 45.00),
+ ('2006-04-05', 'BUY', 'MSFT', 1000, 72.00),
+ ('2006-04-06', 'SELL', 'IBM', 500, 53.00),
+ ]
+ c.executemany('INSERT INTO stocks VALUES (?,?,?,?,?)', purchases)
+
+To retrieve data after executing a SELECT statement, you can either treat the
+cursor as an :term:`iterator`, call the cursor's :meth:`~Cursor.fetchone` method to
+retrieve a single matching row, or call :meth:`~Cursor.fetchall` to get a list of the
+matching rows.
+
+This example uses the iterator form::
+
+ >>> for row in c.execute('SELECT * FROM stocks ORDER BY price'):
+ print row
+
+ (u'2006-01-05', u'BUY', u'RHAT', 100, 35.14)
+ (u'2006-03-28', u'BUY', u'IBM', 1000, 45.0)
+ (u'2006-04-06', u'SELL', u'IBM', 500, 53.0)
+ (u'2006-04-05', u'BUY', u'MSFT', 1000, 72.0)

+
+.. _sqlite3-module-contents:
+
+Module functions and constants
+------------------------------
+
+
+.. data:: version
+
+ The version number of this module, as a string. This is not the version of
+ the SQLite library.
+
+.. data:: version_info
+
+ The version number of this module, as a tuple of integers. This is not the
+ version of the SQLite library.
+
+.. data:: sqlite_version
+
+ The version number of the run-time SQLite library, as a string.
+
+.. data:: sqlite_version_info
+
+ The version number of the run-time SQLite library, as a tuple of integers.
+
+.. data:: PARSE_DECLTYPES
+
+ This constant is meant to be used with the *detect_types* parameter of the
+ :func:`connect` function.
+
+ Setting it makes the :mod:`sqlite3` module parse the declared type for each
+ column it returns. It will parse out the first word of the declared type,
+ i. e. for "integer primary key", it will parse out "integer", or for
+ "number(10)" it will parse out "number". Then for that column, it will look
+ into the converters dictionary and use the converter function registered for
+ that type there.
+
+
+.. data:: PARSE_COLNAMES
+
+ This constant is meant to be used with the *detect_types* parameter of the
+ :func:`connect` function.
+
+ Setting this makes the SQLite interface parse the column name for each column it
+ returns. It will look for a string formed [mytype] in there, and then decide
+ that 'mytype' is the type of the column. It will try to find an entry of
+ 'mytype' in the converters dictionary and then use the converter function found
+ there to return the value. The column name found in :attr:`Cursor.description`
+ is only the first word of the column name, i. e. if you use something like
+ ``'as "x [datetime]"'`` in your SQL, then we will parse out everything until the
+ first blank for the column name: the column name would simply be "x".
+
+
+.. function:: connect(database[, timeout, detect_types, isolation_level, check_same_thread, factory, cached_statements])
+
+ Opens a connection to the SQLite database file *database*. You can use
+ ``":memory:"`` to open a database connection to a database that resides in RAM
+ instead of on disk.
+
+ When a database is accessed by multiple connections, and one of the processes
+ modifies the database, the SQLite database is locked until that transaction is
+ committed. The *timeout* parameter specifies how long the connection should wait
+ for the lock to go away until raising an exception. The default for the timeout
+ parameter is 5.0 (five seconds).
+
+ For the *isolation_level* parameter, please see the
+ :attr:`Connection.isolation_level` property of :class:`Connection` objects.
+
+ SQLite natively supports only the types TEXT, INTEGER, FLOAT, BLOB and NULL. If
+ you want to use other types you must add support for them yourself. The
+ *detect_types* parameter and the using custom **converters** registered with the
+ module-level :func:`register_converter` function allow you to easily do that.
+
+ *detect_types* defaults to 0 (i. e. off, no type detection), you can set it to
+ any combination of :const:`PARSE_DECLTYPES` and :const:`PARSE_COLNAMES` to turn
+ type detection on.
+
+ By default, the :mod:`sqlite3` module uses its :class:`Connection` class for the
+ connect call. You can, however, subclass the :class:`Connection` class and make
+ :func:`connect` use your class instead by providing your class for the *factory*
+ parameter.
+
+ Consult the section :ref:`sqlite3-types` of this manual for details.
+
+ The :mod:`sqlite3` module internally uses a statement cache to avoid SQL parsing
+ overhead. If you want to explicitly set the number of statements that are cached
+ for the connection, you can set the *cached_statements* parameter. The currently
+ implemented default is to cache 100 statements.
+
+
+.. function:: register_converter(typename, callable)
+
+ Registers a callable to convert a bytestring from the database into a custom
+ Python type. The callable will be invoked for all database values that are of
+ the type *typename*. Confer the parameter *detect_types* of the :func:`connect`
+ function for how the type detection works. Note that the case of *typename* and
+ the name of the type in your query must match!
+
+
+.. function:: register_adapter(type, callable)
+
+ Registers a callable to convert the custom Python type *type* into one of
+ SQLite's supported types. The callable *callable* accepts as single parameter
+ the Python value, and must return a value of the following types: int, long,
+ float, str (UTF-8 encoded), unicode or buffer.
+
+
+.. function:: complete_statement(sql)
+
+ Returns :const:`True` if the string *sql* contains one or more complete SQL
+ statements terminated by semicolons. It does not verify that the SQL is
+ syntactically correct, only that there are no unclosed string literals and the
+ statement is terminated by a semicolon.
+
+ This can be used to build a shell for SQLite, as in the following example:
+
+
+ .. literalinclude:: ../includes/sqlite3/complete_statement.py
+
+
+.. function:: enable_callback_tracebacks(flag)
+
+ By default you will not get any tracebacks in user-defined functions,
+ aggregates, converters, authorizer callbacks etc. If you want to debug them, you
+ can call this function with *flag* as True. Afterwards, you will get tracebacks
+ from callbacks on ``sys.stderr``. Use :const:`False` to disable the feature
+ again.
+
+
+.. _sqlite3-connection-objects:
+
+Connection Objects
+------------------
+
+.. class:: Connection
+
+ A SQLite database connection has the following attributes and methods:
+
+ .. attribute:: isolation_level
+
+ Get or set the current isolation level. :const:`None` for autocommit mode or
+ one of "DEFERRED", "IMMEDIATE" or "EXCLUSIVE". See section
+ :ref:`sqlite3-controlling-transactions` for a more detailed explanation.
+
+
+ .. method:: cursor([cursorClass])
+
+ The cursor method accepts a single optional parameter *cursorClass*. If
+ supplied, this must be a custom cursor class that extends
+ :class:`sqlite3.Cursor`.
+
+ .. method:: commit()
+
+ This method commits the current transaction. If you don't call this method,
+ anything you did since the last call to ``commit()`` is not visible from
+ other database connections. If you wonder why you don't see the data you've
+ written to the database, please check you didn't forget to call this method.
+
+ .. method:: rollback()
+
+ This method rolls back any changes to the database since the last call to
+ :meth:`commit`.
+
+ .. method:: close()
+
+ This closes the database connection. Note that this does not automatically
+ call :meth:`commit`. If you just close your database connection without
+ calling :meth:`commit` first, your changes will be lost!
+
+ .. method:: execute(sql, [parameters])
+
+ This is a nonstandard shortcut that creates an intermediate cursor object by
+ calling the cursor method, then calls the cursor's :meth:`execute
+ <Cursor.execute>` method with the parameters given.
+
+
+ .. method:: executemany(sql, [parameters])
+
+ This is a nonstandard shortcut that creates an intermediate cursor object by
+ calling the cursor method, then calls the cursor's :meth:`executemany
+ <Cursor.executemany>` method with the parameters given.
+
+ .. method:: executescript(sql_script)
+
+ This is a nonstandard shortcut that creates an intermediate cursor object by
+ calling the cursor method, then calls the cursor's :meth:`executescript
+ <Cursor.executescript>` method with the parameters given.
+
+
+ .. method:: create_function(name, num_params, func)
+
+ Creates a user-defined function that you can later use from within SQL
+ statements under the function name *name*. *num_params* is the number of
+ parameters the function accepts, and *func* is a Python callable that is called
+ as the SQL function.
+
+ The function can return any of the types supported by SQLite: unicode, str, int,
+ long, float, buffer and None.
+
+ Example:
+
+ .. literalinclude:: ../includes/sqlite3/md5func.py
+
+
+ .. method:: create_aggregate(name, num_params, aggregate_class)
+
+ Creates a user-defined aggregate function.
+
+ The aggregate class must implement a ``step`` method, which accepts the number
+ of parameters *num_params*, and a ``finalize`` method which will return the
+ final result of the aggregate.
+
+ The ``finalize`` method can return any of the types supported by SQLite:
+ unicode, str, int, long, float, buffer and None.
+
+ Example:
+
+ .. literalinclude:: ../includes/sqlite3/mysumaggr.py
+
+
+ .. method:: create_collation(name, callable)
+
+ Creates a collation with the specified *name* and *callable*. The callable will
+ be passed two string arguments. It should return -1 if the first is ordered
+ lower than the second, 0 if they are ordered equal and 1 if the first is ordered
+ higher than the second. Note that this controls sorting (ORDER BY in SQL) so
+ your comparisons don't affect other SQL operations.
+
+ Note that the callable will get its parameters as Python bytestrings, which will
+ normally be encoded in UTF-8.
+
+ The following example shows a custom collation that sorts "the wrong way":
+
+ .. literalinclude:: ../includes/sqlite3/collation_reverse.py
+
+ To remove a collation, call ``create_collation`` with None as callable::
+
+ con.create_collation("reverse", None)
+
+
+ .. method:: interrupt()
+
+ You can call this method from a different thread to abort any queries that might
+ be executing on the connection. The query will then abort and the caller will
+ get an exception.
+
+
+ .. method:: set_authorizer(authorizer_callback)
+
+ This routine registers a callback. The callback is invoked for each attempt to
+ access a column of a table in the database. The callback should return
+ :const:`SQLITE_OK` if access is allowed, :const:`SQLITE_DENY` if the entire SQL
+ statement should be aborted with an error and :const:`SQLITE_IGNORE` if the
+ column should be treated as a NULL value. These constants are available in the
+ :mod:`sqlite3` module.
+
+ The first argument to the callback signifies what kind of operation is to be
+ authorized. The second and third argument will be arguments or :const:`None`
+ depending on the first argument. The 4th argument is the name of the database
+ ("main", "temp", etc.) if applicable. The 5th argument is the name of the
+ inner-most trigger or view that is responsible for the access attempt or
+ :const:`None` if this access attempt is directly from input SQL code.
+
+ Please consult the SQLite documentation about the possible values for the first
+ argument and the meaning of the second and third argument depending on the first
+ one. All necessary constants are available in the :mod:`sqlite3` module.
+
+
+ .. method:: set_progress_handler(handler, n)
+
+ This routine registers a callback. The callback is invoked for every *n*
+ instructions of the SQLite virtual machine. This is useful if you want to
+ get called from SQLite during long-running operations, for example to update
+ a GUI.
+
+ If you want to clear any previously installed progress handler, call the
+ method with :const:`None` for *handler*.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+ .. method:: enable_load_extension(enabled)
+
+ This routine allows/disallows the SQLite engine to load SQLite extensions
+ from shared libraries. SQLite extensions can define new functions,
+ aggregates or whole new virtual table implementations. One well-known
+ extension is the fulltext-search extension distributed with SQLite.
+
+ Loadable extensions are disabled by default. See [#f1]_.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+ .. literalinclude:: ../includes/sqlite3/load_extension.py
+
+ .. method:: load_extension(path)
+
+ This routine loads a SQLite extension from a shared library. You have to
+ enable extension loading with :meth:`enable_load_extension` before you can
+ use this routine.
+
+ Loadable extensions are disabled by default. See [#f1]_.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+ .. attribute:: row_factory
+
+ You can change this attribute to a callable that accepts the cursor and the
+ original row as a tuple and will return the real result row. This way, you can
+ implement more advanced ways of returning results, such as returning an object
+ that can also access columns by name.
+
+ Example:
+
+ .. literalinclude:: ../includes/sqlite3/row_factory.py
+
+ If returning a tuple doesn't suffice and you want name-based access to
+ columns, you should consider setting :attr:`row_factory` to the
+ highly-optimized :class:`sqlite3.Row` type. :class:`Row` provides both
+ index-based and case-insensitive name-based access to columns with almost no
+ memory overhead. It will probably be better than your own custom
+ dictionary-based approach or even a db_row based solution.
+
+ .. XXX what's a db_row-based solution?
+
+
+ .. attribute:: text_factory
+
+ Using this attribute you can control what objects are returned for the ``TEXT``
+ data type. By default, this attribute is set to :class:`unicode` and the
+ :mod:`sqlite3` module will return Unicode objects for ``TEXT``. If you want to
+ return bytestrings instead, you can set it to :class:`str`.
+
+ For efficiency reasons, there's also a way to return Unicode objects only for
+ non-ASCII data, and bytestrings otherwise. To activate it, set this attribute to
+ :const:`sqlite3.OptimizedUnicode`.
+
+ You can also set it to any other callable that accepts a single bytestring
+ parameter and returns the resulting object.
+
+ See the following example code for illustration:
+
+ .. literalinclude:: ../includes/sqlite3/text_factory.py
+
+
+ .. attribute:: total_changes
+
+ Returns the total number of database rows that have been modified, inserted, or
+ deleted since the database connection was opened.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: iterdump
+
+ Returns an iterator to dump the database in an SQL text format. Useful when
+ saving an in-memory database for later restoration. This function provides
+ the same capabilities as the :kbd:`.dump` command in the :program:`sqlite3`
+ shell.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ Example::
+
+ # Convert file existing_db.db to SQL dump file dump.sql
+ import sqlite3, os
+
+ con = sqlite3.connect('existing_db.db')
+ with open('dump.sql', 'w') as f:
+ for line in con.iterdump():
+ f.write('%s\n' % line)
+
+
+.. _sqlite3-cursor-objects:
+
+Cursor Objects
+--------------
+
+.. class:: Cursor
+
+ A :class:`Cursor` instance has the following attributes and methods.
+
+ .. method:: execute(sql, [parameters])
+
+ Executes an SQL statement. The SQL statement may be parameterized (i. e.
+ placeholders instead of SQL literals). The :mod:`sqlite3` module supports two
+ kinds of placeholders: question marks (qmark style) and named placeholders
+ (named style).
+
+ Here's an example of both styles:
+
+ .. literalinclude:: ../includes/sqlite3/execute_1.py
+
+ :meth:`execute` will only execute a single SQL statement. If you try to execute
+ more than one statement with it, it will raise a Warning. Use
+ :meth:`executescript` if you want to execute multiple SQL statements with one
+ call.
+
+
+ .. method:: executemany(sql, seq_of_parameters)
+
+ Executes an SQL command against all parameter sequences or mappings found in
+ the sequence *sql*. The :mod:`sqlite3` module also allows using an
+ :term:`iterator` yielding parameters instead of a sequence.
+
+ .. literalinclude:: ../includes/sqlite3/executemany_1.py
+
+ Here's a shorter example using a :term:`generator`:
+
+ .. literalinclude:: ../includes/sqlite3/executemany_2.py
+
+
+ .. method:: executescript(sql_script)
+
+ This is a nonstandard convenience method for executing multiple SQL statements
+ at once. It issues a ``COMMIT`` statement first, then executes the SQL script it
+ gets as a parameter.
+
+ *sql_script* can be a bytestring or a Unicode string.
+
+ Example:
+
+ .. literalinclude:: ../includes/sqlite3/executescript.py
+
+
+ .. method:: fetchone()
+
+ Fetches the next row of a query result set, returning a single sequence,
+ or :const:`None` when no more data is available.
+
+
+ .. method:: fetchmany([size=cursor.arraysize])
+
+ Fetches the next set of rows of a query result, returning a list. An empty
+ list is returned when no more rows are available.
+
+ The number of rows to fetch per call is specified by the *size* parameter.
+ If it is not given, the cursor's arraysize determines the number of rows
+ to be fetched. The method should try to fetch as many rows as indicated by
+ the size parameter. If this is not possible due to the specified number of
+ rows not being available, fewer rows may be returned.
+
+ Note there are performance considerations involved with the *size* parameter.
+ For optimal performance, it is usually best to use the arraysize attribute.
+ If the *size* parameter is used, then it is best for it to retain the same
+ value from one :meth:`fetchmany` call to the next.
+
+ .. method:: fetchall()
+
+ Fetches all (remaining) rows of a query result, returning a list. Note that
+ the cursor's arraysize attribute can affect the performance of this operation.
+ An empty list is returned when no rows are available.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: rowcount
+
+ Although the :class:`Cursor` class of the :mod:`sqlite3` module implements this
+ attribute, the database engine's own support for the determination of "rows
+ affected"/"rows selected" is quirky.
+
+ For :meth:`executemany` statements, the number of modifications are summed up
+ into :attr:`rowcount`.
+
+ As required by the Python DB API Spec, the :attr:`rowcount` attribute "is -1 in
+ case no ``executeXX()`` has been performed on the cursor or the rowcount of the
+ last operation is not determinable by the interface". This includes ``SELECT``
+ statements because we cannot determine the number of rows a query produced
+ until all rows were fetched.
+
+ With SQLite versions before 3.6.5, :attr:`rowcount` is set to 0 if
+ you make a ``DELETE FROM table`` without any condition.
+
+ .. attribute:: lastrowid
+
+ This read-only attribute provides the rowid of the last modified row. It is
+ only set if you issued a ``INSERT`` statement using the :meth:`execute`
+ method. For operations other than ``INSERT`` or when :meth:`executemany` is
+ called, :attr:`lastrowid` is set to :const:`None`.
+
+ .. attribute:: description
+
+ This read-only attribute provides the column names of the last query. To
+ remain compatible with the Python DB API, it returns a 7-tuple for each
+ column where the last six items of each tuple are :const:`None`.
+
+ It is set for ``SELECT`` statements without any matching rows as well.
+
+.. _sqlite3-row-objects:
+
+Row Objects
+-----------
+
+.. class:: Row
+
+ A :class:`Row` instance serves as a highly optimized
+ :attr:`~Connection.row_factory` for :class:`Connection` objects.
+ It tries to mimic a tuple in most of its features.
+
+ It supports mapping access by column name and index, iteration,
+ representation, equality testing and :func:`len`.
+
+ If two :class:`Row` objects have exactly the same columns and their
+ members are equal, they compare equal.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ Added iteration and equality (hashability).
+
+ .. method:: keys
+
+ This method returns a tuple of column names. Immediately after a query,
+ it is the first member of each tuple in :attr:`Cursor.description`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+Let's assume we initialize a table as in the example given above::
+
+ conn = sqlite3.connect(":memory:")
+ c = conn.cursor()
+ c.execute('''create table stocks
+ (date text, trans text, symbol text,
+ qty real, price real)''')
+ c.execute("""insert into stocks
+ values ('2006-01-05','BUY','RHAT',100,35.14)""")
+ conn.commit()
+ c.close()
+
+Now we plug :class:`Row` in::
+
+ >>> conn.row_factory = sqlite3.Row
+ >>> c = conn.cursor()
+ >>> c.execute('select * from stocks')
+ <sqlite3.Cursor object at 0x7f4e7dd8fa80>
+ >>> r = c.fetchone()
+ >>> type(r)
+ <type 'sqlite3.Row'>
+ >>> r
+ (u'2006-01-05', u'BUY', u'RHAT', 100.0, 35.14)
+ >>> len(r)
+ 5
+ >>> r[2]
+ u'RHAT'
+ >>> r.keys()
+ ['date', 'trans', 'symbol', 'qty', 'price']
+ >>> r['qty']
+ 100.0
+ >>> for member in r:
+ ... print member
+ ...
+ 2006-01-05
+ BUY
+ RHAT
+ 100.0
+ 35.14
+
+

+
+SQLite and Python types
+-----------------------
+
+
+Introduction
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+SQLite natively supports the following types: ``NULL``, ``INTEGER``,
+``REAL``, ``TEXT``, ``BLOB``.
+
+The following Python types can thus be sent to SQLite without any problem:
+
++-----------------------------+-------------+
+| Python type | SQLite type |
++=============================+=============+
+| :const:`None` | ``NULL`` |
++-----------------------------+-------------+
+| :class:`int` | ``INTEGER`` |
++-----------------------------+-------------+
+| :class:`long` | ``INTEGER`` |
++-----------------------------+-------------+
+| :class:`float` | ``REAL`` |
++-----------------------------+-------------+
+| :class:`str` (UTF8-encoded) | ``TEXT`` |
++-----------------------------+-------------+
+| :class:`unicode` | ``TEXT`` |
++-----------------------------+-------------+
+| :class:`buffer` | ``BLOB`` |
++-----------------------------+-------------+
+
+This is how SQLite types are converted to Python types by default:
+
++-------------+----------------------------------------------+
+| SQLite type | Python type |
++=============+==============================================+
+| ``NULL`` | :const:`None` |
++-------------+----------------------------------------------+
+| ``INTEGER`` | :class:`int` or :class:`long`, |
+| | depending on size |
++-------------+----------------------------------------------+
+| ``REAL`` | :class:`float` |
++-------------+----------------------------------------------+
+| ``TEXT`` | depends on :attr:`~Connection.text_factory`, |
+| | :class:`unicode` by default |
++-------------+----------------------------------------------+
+| ``BLOB`` | :class:`buffer` |
++-------------+----------------------------------------------+
+
+The type system of the :mod:`sqlite3` module is extensible in two ways: you can
+store additional Python types in a SQLite database via object adaptation, and
+you can let the :mod:`sqlite3` module convert SQLite types to different Python
+types via converters.
+
+
+Using adapters to store additional Python types in SQLite databases
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+As described before, SQLite supports only a limited set of types natively. To
+use other Python types with SQLite, you must **adapt** them to one of the
+sqlite3 module's supported types for SQLite: one of NoneType, int, long, float,
+str, unicode, buffer.
+
+The :mod:`sqlite3` module uses Python object adaptation, as described in
+:pep:`246` for this. The protocol to use is :class:`PrepareProtocol`.
+
+There are two ways to enable the :mod:`sqlite3` module to adapt a custom Python
+type to one of the supported ones.
+
+
+Letting your object adapt itself
+""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
+
+This is a good approach if you write the class yourself. Let's suppose you have
+a class like this::
+
+ class Point(object):
+ def __init__(self, x, y):
+ self.x, self.y = x, y
+
+Now you want to store the point in a single SQLite column. First you'll have to
+choose one of the supported types first to be used for representing the point.
+Let's just use str and separate the coordinates using a semicolon. Then you need
+to give your class a method ``__conform__(self, protocol)`` which must return
+the converted value. The parameter *protocol* will be :class:`PrepareProtocol`.
+
+.. literalinclude:: ../includes/sqlite3/adapter_point_1.py
+
+
+Registering an adapter callable
+"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
+
+The other possibility is to create a function that converts the type to the
+string representation and register the function with :meth:`register_adapter`.
+
+.. note::
+
+ The type/class to adapt must be a :term:`new-style class`, i. e. it must have
+ :class:`object` as one of its bases.
+
+.. literalinclude:: ../includes/sqlite3/adapter_point_2.py
+
+The :mod:`sqlite3` module has two default adapters for Python's built-in
+:class:`datetime.date` and :class:`datetime.datetime` types. Now let's suppose
+we want to store :class:`datetime.datetime` objects not in ISO representation,
+but as a Unix timestamp.
+
+.. literalinclude:: ../includes/sqlite3/adapter_datetime.py
+
+
+Converting SQLite values to custom Python types
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Writing an adapter lets you send custom Python types to SQLite. But to make it
+really useful we need to make the Python to SQLite to Python roundtrip work.
+
+Enter converters.
+
+Let's go back to the :class:`Point` class. We stored the x and y coordinates
+separated via semicolons as strings in SQLite.
+
+First, we'll define a converter function that accepts the string as a parameter
+and constructs a :class:`Point` object from it.
+
+.. note::
+
+ Converter functions **always** get called with a string, no matter under which
+ data type you sent the value to SQLite.
+
+::
+
+ def convert_point(s):
+ x, y = map(float, s.split(";"))
+ return Point(x, y)
+
+Now you need to make the :mod:`sqlite3` module know that what you select from
+the database is actually a point. There are two ways of doing this:
+
+* Implicitly via the declared type
+
+* Explicitly via the column name
+
+Both ways are described in section :ref:`sqlite3-module-contents`, in the entries
+for the constants :const:`PARSE_DECLTYPES` and :const:`PARSE_COLNAMES`.
+
+The following example illustrates both approaches.
+
+.. literalinclude:: ../includes/sqlite3/converter_point.py
+
+
+Default adapters and converters
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+There are default adapters for the date and datetime types in the datetime
+module. They will be sent as ISO dates/ISO timestamps to SQLite.
+
+The default converters are registered under the name "date" for
+:class:`datetime.date` and under the name "timestamp" for
+:class:`datetime.datetime`.
+
+This way, you can use date/timestamps from Python without any additional
+fiddling in most cases. The format of the adapters is also compatible with the
+experimental SQLite date/time functions.
+
+The following example demonstrates this.
+
+.. literalinclude:: ../includes/sqlite3/pysqlite_datetime.py
+
+If a timestamp stored in SQLite has a fractional part longer than 6
+numbers, its value will be truncated to microsecond precision by the
+timestamp converter.
+
+
+.. _sqlite3-controlling-transactions:
+
+Controlling Transactions
+------------------------
+
+By default, the :mod:`sqlite3` module opens transactions implicitly before a
+Data Modification Language (DML) statement (i.e.
+``INSERT``/``UPDATE``/``DELETE``/``REPLACE``), and commits transactions
+implicitly before a non-DML, non-query statement (i. e.
+anything other than ``SELECT`` or the aforementioned).
+
+So if you are within a transaction and issue a command like ``CREATE TABLE
+...``, ``VACUUM``, ``PRAGMA``, the :mod:`sqlite3` module will commit implicitly
+before executing that command. There are two reasons for doing that. The first
+is that some of these commands don't work within transactions. The other reason
+is that sqlite3 needs to keep track of the transaction state (if a transaction
+is active or not).
+
+You can control which kind of ``BEGIN`` statements sqlite3 implicitly executes
+(or none at all) via the *isolation_level* parameter to the :func:`connect`
+call, or via the :attr:`isolation_level` property of connections.
+
+If you want **autocommit mode**, then set :attr:`isolation_level` to None.
+
+Otherwise leave it at its default, which will result in a plain "BEGIN"
+statement, or set it to one of SQLite's supported isolation levels: "DEFERRED",
+"IMMEDIATE" or "EXCLUSIVE".
+
+
+
+Using :mod:`sqlite3` efficiently
+--------------------------------
+
+
+Using shortcut methods
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Using the nonstandard :meth:`execute`, :meth:`executemany` and
+:meth:`executescript` methods of the :class:`Connection` object, your code can
+be written more concisely because you don't have to create the (often
+superfluous) :class:`Cursor` objects explicitly. Instead, the :class:`Cursor`
+objects are created implicitly and these shortcut methods return the cursor
+objects. This way, you can execute a ``SELECT`` statement and iterate over it
+directly using only a single call on the :class:`Connection` object.
+
+.. literalinclude:: ../includes/sqlite3/shortcut_methods.py
+
+
+Accessing columns by name instead of by index
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+One useful feature of the :mod:`sqlite3` module is the built-in
+:class:`sqlite3.Row` class designed to be used as a row factory.
+
+Rows wrapped with this class can be accessed both by index (like tuples) and
+case-insensitively by name:
+
+.. literalinclude:: ../includes/sqlite3/rowclass.py
+
+
+Using the connection as a context manager
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+Connection objects can be used as context managers
+that automatically commit or rollback transactions. In the event of an
+exception, the transaction is rolled back; otherwise, the transaction is
+committed:
+
+.. literalinclude:: ../includes/sqlite3/ctx_manager.py
+
+
+Common issues
+-------------
+
+Multithreading
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Older SQLite versions had issues with sharing connections between threads.
+That's why the Python module disallows sharing connections and cursors between
+threads. If you still try to do so, you will get an exception at runtime.
+
+The only exception is calling the :meth:`~Connection.interrupt` method, which
+only makes sense to call from a different thread.
+
+.. rubric:: Footnotes
+
+.. [#f1] The sqlite3 module is not built with loadable extension support by
+ default, because some platforms (notably Mac OS X) have SQLite libraries
+ which are compiled without this feature. To get loadable extension support,
+ you must modify setup.py and remove the line that sets
+ SQLITE_OMIT_LOAD_EXTENSION.

+:mod:`ssl` --- TLS/SSL wrapper for socket objects
+=================================================
+
+.. module:: ssl
+ :synopsis: TLS/SSL wrapper for socket objects
+
+.. moduleauthor:: Bill Janssen <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Bill Janssen <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. index:: single: OpenSSL; (use in module ssl)
+
+.. index:: TLS, SSL, Transport Layer Security, Secure Sockets Layer
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/ssl.py`
+
+--------------
+
+This module provides access to Transport Layer Security (often known as "Secure
+Sockets Layer") encryption and peer authentication facilities for network
+sockets, both client-side and server-side. This module uses the OpenSSL
+library. It is available on all modern Unix systems, Windows, Mac OS X, and
+probably additional platforms, as long as OpenSSL is installed on that platform.
+
+.. note::
+
+ Some behavior may be platform dependent, since calls are made to the
+ operating system socket APIs. The installed version of OpenSSL may also
+ cause variations in behavior.
+
+This section documents the objects and functions in the ``ssl`` module; for more
+general information about TLS, SSL, and certificates, the reader is referred to
+the documents in the "See Also" section at the bottom.
+
+This module provides a class, :class:`ssl.SSLSocket`, which is derived from the
+:class:`socket.socket` type, and provides a socket-like wrapper that also
+encrypts and decrypts the data going over the socket with SSL. It supports
+additional :meth:`read` and :meth:`write` methods, along with a method,
+:meth:`getpeercert`, to retrieve the certificate of the other side of the
+connection, and a method, :meth:`cipher`, to retrieve the cipher being used for
+the secure connection.
+
+Functions, Constants, and Exceptions
+------------------------------------
+
+.. exception:: SSLError
+
+ Raised to signal an error from the underlying SSL implementation. This
+ signifies some problem in the higher-level encryption and authentication
+ layer that's superimposed on the underlying network connection. This error
+ is a subtype of :exc:`socket.error`, which in turn is a subtype of
+ :exc:`IOError`.
+
+.. function:: wrap_socket (sock, keyfile=None, certfile=None, server_side=False, cert_reqs=CERT_NONE, ssl_version={see docs}, ca_certs=None, do_handshake_on_connect=True, suppress_ragged_eofs=True, ciphers=None)
+
+ Takes an instance ``sock`` of :class:`socket.socket`, and returns an instance
+ of :class:`ssl.SSLSocket`, a subtype of :class:`socket.socket`, which wraps
+ the underlying socket in an SSL context. For client-side sockets, the
+ context construction is lazy; if the underlying socket isn't connected yet,
+ the context construction will be performed after :meth:`connect` is called on
+ the socket. For server-side sockets, if the socket has no remote peer, it is
+ assumed to be a listening socket, and the server-side SSL wrapping is
+ automatically performed on client connections accepted via the :meth:`accept`
+ method. :func:`wrap_socket` may raise :exc:`SSLError`.
+
+ The ``keyfile`` and ``certfile`` parameters specify optional files which
+ contain a certificate to be used to identify the local side of the
+ connection. See the discussion of :ref:`ssl-certificates` for more
+ information on how the certificate is stored in the ``certfile``.
+
+ Often the private key is stored in the same file as the certificate; in this
+ case, only the ``certfile`` parameter need be passed. If the private key is
+ stored in a separate file, both parameters must be used. If the private key
+ is stored in the ``certfile``, it should come before the first certificate in
+ the certificate chain::
+
+ -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
+ ... (private key in base64 encoding) ...
+ -----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
+ -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
+ ... (certificate in base64 PEM encoding) ...
+ -----END CERTIFICATE-----
+
+ The parameter ``server_side`` is a boolean which identifies whether
+ server-side or client-side behavior is desired from this socket.
+
+ The parameter ``cert_reqs`` specifies whether a certificate is required from
+ the other side of the connection, and whether it will be validated if
+ provided. It must be one of the three values :const:`CERT_NONE`
+ (certificates ignored), :const:`CERT_OPTIONAL` (not required, but validated
+ if provided), or :const:`CERT_REQUIRED` (required and validated). If the
+ value of this parameter is not :const:`CERT_NONE`, then the ``ca_certs``
+ parameter must point to a file of CA certificates.
+
+ The ``ca_certs`` file contains a set of concatenated "certification
+ authority" certificates, which are used to validate certificates passed from
+ the other end of the connection. See the discussion of
+ :ref:`ssl-certificates` for more information about how to arrange the
+ certificates in this file.
+
+ The parameter ``ssl_version`` specifies which version of the SSL protocol to
+ use. Typically, the server chooses a particular protocol version, and the
+ client must adapt to the server's choice. Most of the versions are not
+ interoperable with the other versions. If not specified, the default is
+ :data:`PROTOCOL_SSLv23`; it provides the most compatibility with other
+ versions.
+
+ Here's a table showing which versions in a client (down the side) can connect
+ to which versions in a server (along the top):
+
+ .. table::
+
+ ======================== ========= ========= ========== =========
+ *client* / **server** **SSLv2** **SSLv3** **SSLv23** **TLSv1**
+ ------------------------ --------- --------- ---------- ---------
+ *SSLv2* yes no yes no
+ *SSLv3* no yes yes no
+ *SSLv23* yes no yes no
+ *TLSv1* no no yes yes
+ ======================== ========= ========= ========== =========
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Which connections succeed will vary depending on the version of
+ OpenSSL. For instance, in some older versions of OpenSSL (such
+ as 0.9.7l on OS X 10.4), an SSLv2 client could not connect to an
+ SSLv23 server. Another example: beginning with OpenSSL 1.0.0,
+ an SSLv23 client will not actually attempt SSLv2 connections
+ unless you explicitly enable SSLv2 ciphers; for example, you
+ might specify ``"ALL"`` or ``"SSLv2"`` as the *ciphers* parameter
+ to enable them.
+
+ The *ciphers* parameter sets the available ciphers for this SSL object.
+ It should be a string in the `OpenSSL cipher list format
+ <http://www.openssl.org/docs/apps/ciphers.html#CIPHER_LIST_FORMAT>`_.
+
+ The parameter ``do_handshake_on_connect`` specifies whether to do the SSL
+ handshake automatically after doing a :meth:`socket.connect`, or whether the
+ application program will call it explicitly, by invoking the
+ :meth:`SSLSocket.do_handshake` method. Calling
+ :meth:`SSLSocket.do_handshake` explicitly gives the program control over the
+ blocking behavior of the socket I/O involved in the handshake.
+
+ The parameter ``suppress_ragged_eofs`` specifies how the
+ :meth:`SSLSocket.read` method should signal unexpected EOF from the other end
+ of the connection. If specified as :const:`True` (the default), it returns a
+ normal EOF in response to unexpected EOF errors raised from the underlying
+ socket; if :const:`False`, it will raise the exceptions back to the caller.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ New optional argument *ciphers*.
+
+.. function:: RAND_status()
+
+ Returns True if the SSL pseudo-random number generator has been seeded with
+ 'enough' randomness, and False otherwise. You can use :func:`ssl.RAND_egd`
+ and :func:`ssl.RAND_add` to increase the randomness of the pseudo-random
+ number generator.
+
+.. function:: RAND_egd(path)
+
+ If you are running an entropy-gathering daemon (EGD) somewhere, and ``path``
+ is the pathname of a socket connection open to it, this will read 256 bytes
+ of randomness from the socket, and add it to the SSL pseudo-random number
+ generator to increase the security of generated secret keys. This is
+ typically only necessary on systems without better sources of randomness.
+
+ See http://egd.sourceforge.net/ or http://prngd.sourceforge.net/ for sources
+ of entropy-gathering daemons.
+
+.. function:: RAND_add(bytes, entropy)
+
+ Mixes the given ``bytes`` into the SSL pseudo-random number generator. The
+ parameter ``entropy`` (a float) is a lower bound on the entropy contained in
+ string (so you can always use :const:`0.0`). See :rfc:`1750` for more
+ information on sources of entropy.
+
+.. function:: cert_time_to_seconds(timestring)
+
+ Returns a floating-point value containing a normal seconds-after-the-epoch
+ time value, given the time-string representing the "notBefore" or "notAfter"
+ date from a certificate.
+
+ Here's an example::
+
+ >>> import ssl
+ >>> ssl.cert_time_to_seconds("May 9 00:00:00 2007 GMT")
+ 1178694000.0
+ >>> import time
+ >>> time.ctime(ssl.cert_time_to_seconds("May 9 00:00:00 2007 GMT"))
+ 'Wed May 9 00:00:00 2007'
+ >>>
+
+.. function:: get_server_certificate (addr, ssl_version=PROTOCOL_SSLv3, ca_certs=None)
+
+ Given the address ``addr`` of an SSL-protected server, as a (*hostname*,
+ *port-number*) pair, fetches the server's certificate, and returns it as a
+ PEM-encoded string. If ``ssl_version`` is specified, uses that version of
+ the SSL protocol to attempt to connect to the server. If ``ca_certs`` is
+ specified, it should be a file containing a list of root certificates, the
+ same format as used for the same parameter in :func:`wrap_socket`. The call
+ will attempt to validate the server certificate against that set of root
+ certificates, and will fail if the validation attempt fails.
+
+.. function:: DER_cert_to_PEM_cert (DER_cert_bytes)
+
+ Given a certificate as a DER-encoded blob of bytes, returns a PEM-encoded
+ string version of the same certificate.
+
+.. function:: PEM_cert_to_DER_cert (PEM_cert_string)
+
+ Given a certificate as an ASCII PEM string, returns a DER-encoded sequence of
+ bytes for that same certificate.
+
+.. data:: CERT_NONE
+
+ Value to pass to the ``cert_reqs`` parameter to :func:`sslobject` when no

+
+.. data:: CERT_OPTIONAL
+
+ Value to pass to the ``cert_reqs`` parameter to :func:`sslobject` when no
+ certificates will be required from the other side of the socket connection,
+ but if they are provided, will be validated. Note that use of this setting
+ requires a valid certificate validation file also be passed as a value of the
+ ``ca_certs`` parameter.
+
+.. data:: CERT_REQUIRED
+
+ Value to pass to the ``cert_reqs`` parameter to :func:`sslobject` when
+ certificates will be required from the other side of the socket connection.
+ Note that use of this setting requires a valid certificate validation file
+ also be passed as a value of the ``ca_certs`` parameter.
+
+.. data:: PROTOCOL_SSLv2
+
+ Selects SSL version 2 as the channel encryption protocol.
+
+ This protocol is not available if OpenSSL is compiled with OPENSSL_NO_SSL2
+ flag.
+
+ .. warning::
+
+ SSL version 2 is insecure. Its use is highly discouraged.
+
+.. data:: PROTOCOL_SSLv23
+
+ Selects SSL version 2 or 3 as the channel encryption protocol. This is a

+
+SSLSocket Objects
+-----------------
+
+SSL sockets provide the following methods of :ref:`socket-objects`:
+
+- :meth:`~socket.socket.accept()`
+- :meth:`~socket.socket.bind()`
+- :meth:`~socket.socket.close()`
+- :meth:`~socket.socket.connect()`
+- :meth:`~socket.socket.fileno()`
+- :meth:`~socket.socket.getpeername()`, :meth:`~socket.socket.getsockname()`
+- :meth:`~socket.socket.getsockopt()`, :meth:`~socket.socket.setsockopt()`
+- :meth:`~socket.socket.gettimeout()`, :meth:`~socket.socket.settimeout()`,
+ :meth:`~socket.socket.setblocking()`
+- :meth:`~socket.socket.listen()`
+- :meth:`~socket.socket.makefile()`
+- :meth:`~socket.socket.recv()`, :meth:`~socket.socket.recv_into()`
+ (but passing a non-zero ``flags`` argument is not allowed)
+- :meth:`~socket.socket.send()`, :meth:`~socket.socket.sendall()` (with
+ the same limitation)
+- :meth:`~socket.socket.shutdown()`
+
+However, since the SSL (and TLS) protocol has its own framing atop
+of TCP, the SSL sockets abstraction can, in certain respects, diverge from
+the specification of normal, OS-level sockets.
+
+SSL sockets also have the following additional methods and attributes:
+
+.. method:: SSLSocket.getpeercert(binary_form=False)
+
+ If there is no certificate for the peer on the other end of the connection,
+ returns ``None``.
+
+ If the ``binary_form`` parameter is :const:`False`, and a certificate was
+ received from the peer, this method returns a :class:`dict` instance. If the
+ certificate was not validated, the dict is empty. If the certificate was
+ validated, it returns a dict with the keys ``subject`` (the principal for
+ which the certificate was issued), and ``notAfter`` (the time after which the
+ certificate should not be trusted). The certificate was already validated,
+ so the ``notBefore`` and ``issuer`` fields are not returned. If a
+ certificate contains an instance of the *Subject Alternative Name* extension
+ (see :rfc:`3280`), there will also be a ``subjectAltName`` key in the
+ dictionary.
+
+ The "subject" field is a tuple containing the sequence of relative
+ distinguished names (RDNs) given in the certificate's data structure for the
+ principal, and each RDN is a sequence of name-value pairs::
+
+ {'notAfter': 'Feb 16 16:54:50 2013 GMT',
+ 'subject': ((('countryName', u'US'),),
+ (('stateOrProvinceName', u'Delaware'),),
+ (('localityName', u'Wilmington'),),
+ (('organizationName', u'Python Software Foundation'),),
+ (('organizationalUnitName', u'SSL'),),
+ (('commonName', u'somemachine.python.org'),))}
+
+ If the ``binary_form`` parameter is :const:`True`, and a certificate was
+ provided, this method returns the DER-encoded form of the entire certificate
+ as a sequence of bytes, or :const:`None` if the peer did not provide a
+ certificate. Whether the peer provides a certificate depends on the SSL
+ socket's role:
+
+ * for a client SSL socket, the server will always provide a certificate,
+ regardless of whether validation was required;
+
+ * for a server SSL socket, the client will only provide a certificate
+ when requested by the server; therefore :meth:`getpeercert` will return
+ :const:`None` if you used :const:`CERT_NONE` (rather than
+ :const:`CERT_OPTIONAL` or :const:`CERT_REQUIRED`).
+
+.. method:: SSLSocket.cipher()
+
+ Returns a three-value tuple containing the name of the cipher being used, the
+ version of the SSL protocol that defines its use, and the number of secret
+ bits being used. If no connection has been established, returns ``None``.
+
+.. method:: SSLSocket.do_handshake()
+
+ Perform a TLS/SSL handshake. If this is used with a non-blocking socket, it
+ may raise :exc:`SSLError` with an ``arg[0]`` of :const:`SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ`
+ or :const:`SSL_ERROR_WANT_WRITE`, in which case it must be called again until
+ it completes successfully. For example, to simulate the behavior of a
+ blocking socket, one might write::
+
+ while True:
+ try:
+ s.do_handshake()
+ break
+ except ssl.SSLError as err:
+ if err.args[0] == ssl.SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ:
+ select.select([s], [], [])
+ elif err.args[0] == ssl.SSL_ERROR_WANT_WRITE:
+ select.select([], [s], [])
+ else:
+ raise
+
+.. method:: SSLSocket.unwrap()
+
+ Performs the SSL shutdown handshake, which removes the TLS layer from the
+ underlying socket, and returns the underlying socket object. This can be
+ used to go from encrypted operation over a connection to unencrypted. The
+ socket instance returned should always be used for further communication with
+ the other side of the connection, rather than the original socket instance
+ (which may not function properly after the unwrap).

+
+Certificates
+------------
+
+Certificates in general are part of a public-key / private-key system. In this
+system, each *principal*, (which may be a machine, or a person, or an
+organization) is assigned a unique two-part encryption key. One part of the key
+is public, and is called the *public key*; the other part is kept secret, and is
+called the *private key*. The two parts are related, in that if you encrypt a
+message with one of the parts, you can decrypt it with the other part, and
+**only** with the other part.
+
+A certificate contains information about two principals. It contains the name
+of a *subject*, and the subject's public key. It also contains a statement by a
+second principal, the *issuer*, that the subject is who he claims to be, and
+that this is indeed the subject's public key. The issuer's statement is signed
+with the issuer's private key, which only the issuer knows. However, anyone can
+verify the issuer's statement by finding the issuer's public key, decrypting the
+statement with it, and comparing it to the other information in the certificate.
+The certificate also contains information about the time period over which it is
+valid. This is expressed as two fields, called "notBefore" and "notAfter".
+
+In the Python use of certificates, a client or server can use a certificate to
+prove who they are. The other side of a network connection can also be required
+to produce a certificate, and that certificate can be validated to the
+satisfaction of the client or server that requires such validation. The
+connection attempt can be set to raise an exception if the validation fails.
+Validation is done automatically, by the underlying OpenSSL framework; the
+application need not concern itself with its mechanics. But the application
+does usually need to provide sets of certificates to allow this process to take
+place.
+
+Python uses files to contain certificates. They should be formatted as "PEM"
+(see :rfc:`1422`), which is a base-64 encoded form wrapped with a header line
+and a footer line::
+
+ -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
+ ... (certificate in base64 PEM encoding) ...
+ -----END CERTIFICATE-----
+
+The Python files which contain certificates can contain a sequence of
+certificates, sometimes called a *certificate chain*. This chain should start
+with the specific certificate for the principal who "is" the client or server,
+and then the certificate for the issuer of that certificate, and then the
+certificate for the issuer of *that* certificate, and so on up the chain till
+you get to a certificate which is *self-signed*, that is, a certificate which
+has the same subject and issuer, sometimes called a *root certificate*. The
+certificates should just be concatenated together in the certificate file. For
+example, suppose we had a three certificate chain, from our server certificate
+to the certificate of the certification authority that signed our server
+certificate, to the root certificate of the agency which issued the
+certification authority's certificate::
+
+ -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
+ ... (certificate for your server)...
+ -----END CERTIFICATE-----
+ -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
+ ... (the certificate for the CA)...
+ -----END CERTIFICATE-----
+ -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
+ ... (the root certificate for the CA's issuer)...
+ -----END CERTIFICATE-----
+
+If you are going to require validation of the other side of the connection's
+certificate, you need to provide a "CA certs" file, filled with the certificate
+chains for each issuer you are willing to trust. Again, this file just contains
+these chains concatenated together. For validation, Python will use the first
+chain it finds in the file which matches.
+
+Some "standard" root certificates are available from various certification
+authorities: `CACert.org <http://www.cacert.org/index.php?id=3>`_, `Thawte
+<http://www.thawte.com/roots/>`_, `Verisign
+<http://www.verisign.com/support/roots.html>`_, `Positive SSL
+<http://www.PositiveSSL.com/ssl-certificate-support/cert_installation/UTN-USERFirst-Hardware.crt>`_
+(used by python.org), `Equifax and GeoTrust
+<http://www.geotrust.com/resources/root_certificates/index.asp>`_.
+
+In general, if you are using SSL3 or TLS1, you don't need to put the full chain
+in your "CA certs" file; you only need the root certificates, and the remote
+peer is supposed to furnish the other certificates necessary to chain from its
+certificate to a root certificate. See :rfc:`4158` for more discussion of the
+way in which certification chains can be built.
+
+If you are going to create a server that provides SSL-encrypted connection
+services, you will need to acquire a certificate for that service. There are
+many ways of acquiring appropriate certificates, such as buying one from a
+certification authority. Another common practice is to generate a self-signed
+certificate. The simplest way to do this is with the OpenSSL package, using
+something like the following::
+
+ % openssl req -new -x509 -days 365 -nodes -out cert.pem -keyout cert.pem
+ Generating a 1024 bit RSA private key
+ .......++++++
+ .............................++++++
+ writing new private key to 'cert.pem'
+ -----
+ You are about to be asked to enter information that will be incorporated
+ into your certificate request.
+ What you are about to enter is what is called a Distinguished Name or a DN.
+ There are quite a few fields but you can leave some blank
+ For some fields there will be a default value,
+ If you enter '.', the field will be left blank.
+ -----
+ Country Name (2 letter code) [AU]:US
+ State or Province Name (full name) [Some-State]:MyState
+ Locality Name (eg, city) []:Some City
+ Organization Name (eg, company) [Internet Widgits Pty Ltd]:My Organization, Inc.
+ Organizational Unit Name (eg, section) []:My Group
+ Common Name (eg, YOUR name) []:myserver.mygroup.myorganization.com
+ Email Address []:[email protected]
+ %
+
+The disadvantage of a self-signed certificate is that it is its own root
+certificate, and no one else will have it in their cache of known (and trusted)
+root certificates.
+
+
+Examples
+--------
+
+Testing for SSL support
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+To test for the presence of SSL support in a Python installation, user code
+should use the following idiom::
+
+ try:
+ import ssl
+ except ImportError:
+ pass
+ else:
+ ... # do something that requires SSL support
+
+Client-side operation
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+This example connects to an SSL server, prints the server's address and
+certificate, sends some bytes, and reads part of the response::
+
+ import socket, ssl, pprint
+
+ s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
+
+ # require a certificate from the server
+ ssl_sock = ssl.wrap_socket(s,
+ ca_certs="/etc/ca_certs_file",
+ cert_reqs=ssl.CERT_REQUIRED)
+
+ ssl_sock.connect(('www.verisign.com', 443))
+
+ print repr(ssl_sock.getpeername())
+ print ssl_sock.cipher()
+ print pprint.pformat(ssl_sock.getpeercert())
+
+ # Set a simple HTTP request -- use httplib in actual code.
+ ssl_sock.write("""GET / HTTP/1.0\r
+ Host: www.verisign.com\r\n\r\n""")
+
+ # Read a chunk of data. Will not necessarily
+ # read all the data returned by the server.
+ data = ssl_sock.read()
+
+ # note that closing the SSLSocket will also close the underlying socket
+ ssl_sock.close()
+
+As of September 6, 2007, the certificate printed by this program looked like
+this::
+
+ {'notAfter': 'May 8 23:59:59 2009 GMT',
+ 'subject': ((('serialNumber', u'2497886'),),
+ (('1.3.6.1.4.1.311.60.2.1.3', u'US'),),
+ (('1.3.6.1.4.1.311.60.2.1.2', u'Delaware'),),
+ (('countryName', u'US'),),
+ (('postalCode', u'94043'),),
+ (('stateOrProvinceName', u'California'),),
+ (('localityName', u'Mountain View'),),
+ (('streetAddress', u'487 East Middlefield Road'),),
+ (('organizationName', u'VeriSign, Inc.'),),
+ (('organizationalUnitName',
+ u'Production Security Services'),),
+ (('organizationalUnitName',
+ u'Terms of use at www.verisign.com/rpa (c)06'),),
+ (('commonName', u'www.verisign.com'),))}
+
+which is a fairly poorly-formed ``subject`` field.
+
+Server-side operation
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+For server operation, typically you'd need to have a server certificate, and
+private key, each in a file. You'd open a socket, bind it to a port, call
+:meth:`listen` on it, then start waiting for clients to connect::
+
+ import socket, ssl
+
+ bindsocket = socket.socket()
+ bindsocket.bind(('myaddr.mydomain.com', 10023))
+ bindsocket.listen(5)
+
+When one did, you'd call :meth:`accept` on the socket to get the new socket from
+the other end, and use :func:`wrap_socket` to create a server-side SSL context
+for it::
+
+ while True:
+ newsocket, fromaddr = bindsocket.accept()
+ connstream = ssl.wrap_socket(newsocket,
+ server_side=True,
+ certfile="mycertfile",
+ keyfile="mykeyfile",
+ ssl_version=ssl.PROTOCOL_TLSv1)
+ try:
+ deal_with_client(connstream)
+ finally:
+ connstream.shutdown(socket.SHUT_RDWR)
+ connstream.close()
+
+Then you'd read data from the ``connstream`` and do something with it till you
+are finished with the client (or the client is finished with you)::
+
+ def deal_with_client(connstream):
+ data = connstream.read()
+ # null data means the client is finished with us
+ while data:
+ if not do_something(connstream, data):
+ # we'll assume do_something returns False
+ # when we're finished with client
+ break
+ data = connstream.read()
+ # finished with client
+
+And go back to listening for new client connections.

+:mod:`stat` --- Interpreting :func:`stat` results
+=================================================
+
+.. module:: stat
+ :synopsis: Utilities for interpreting the results of os.stat(), os.lstat() and os.fstat().
+.. sectionauthor:: Skip Montanaro <[email protected]>
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/stat.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`stat` module defines constants and functions for interpreting the
+results of :func:`os.stat`, :func:`os.fstat` and :func:`os.lstat` (if they
+exist). For complete details about the :c:func:`stat`, :c:func:`fstat` and
+:c:func:`lstat` calls, consult the documentation for your system.
+
+The :mod:`stat` module defines the following functions to test for specific file
+types:
+
+
+.. function:: S_ISDIR(mode)
+
+ Return non-zero if the mode is from a directory.
+
+
+.. function:: S_ISCHR(mode)
+
+ Return non-zero if the mode is from a character special device file.
+
+
+.. function:: S_ISBLK(mode)
+
+ Return non-zero if the mode is from a block special device file.
+
+
+.. function:: S_ISREG(mode)
+
+ Return non-zero if the mode is from a regular file.
+
+
+.. function:: S_ISFIFO(mode)
+
+ Return non-zero if the mode is from a FIFO (named pipe).
+
+
+.. function:: S_ISLNK(mode)
+
+ Return non-zero if the mode is from a symbolic link.
+
+
+.. function:: S_ISSOCK(mode)
+
+ Return non-zero if the mode is from a socket.
+
+Two additional functions are defined for more general manipulation of the file's
+mode:
+
+
+.. function:: S_IMODE(mode)
+
+ Return the portion of the file's mode that can be set by :func:`os.chmod`\
+ ---that is, the file's permission bits, plus the sticky bit, set-group-id, and
+ set-user-id bits (on systems that support them).
+
+
+.. function:: S_IFMT(mode)
+
+ Return the portion of the file's mode that describes the file type (used by the
+ :func:`S_IS\*` functions above).
+
+Normally, you would use the :func:`os.path.is\*` functions for testing the type
+of a file; the functions here are useful when you are doing multiple tests of
+the same file and wish to avoid the overhead of the :c:func:`stat` system call
+for each test. These are also useful when checking for information about a file
+that isn't handled by :mod:`os.path`, like the tests for block and character
+devices.
+
+Example::
+
+ import os, sys
+ from stat import *
+
+ def walktree(top, callback):
+ '''recursively descend the directory tree rooted at top,
+ calling the callback function for each regular file'''
+
+ for f in os.listdir(top):
+ pathname = os.path.join(top, f)
+ mode = os.stat(pathname).st_mode
+ if S_ISDIR(mode):
+ # It's a directory, recurse into it
+ walktree(pathname, callback)
+ elif S_ISREG(mode):
+ # It's a file, call the callback function
+ callback(pathname)
+ else:
+ # Unknown file type, print a message
+ print 'Skipping %s' % pathname
+
+ def visitfile(file):
+ print 'visiting', file
+
+ if __name__ == '__main__':
+ walktree(sys.argv[1], visitfile)
+
+All the variables below are simply symbolic indexes into the 10-tuple returned
+by :func:`os.stat`, :func:`os.fstat` or :func:`os.lstat`.
+
+
+.. data:: ST_MODE
+
+ Inode protection mode.
+
+
+.. data:: ST_INO
+
+ Inode number.
+
+
+.. data:: ST_DEV
+
+ Device inode resides on.
+
+
+.. data:: ST_NLINK
+
+ Number of links to the inode.
+
+
+.. data:: ST_UID
+
+ User id of the owner.
+
+
+.. data:: ST_GID
+
+ Group id of the owner.
+
+
+.. data:: ST_SIZE
+
+ Size in bytes of a plain file; amount of data waiting on some special files.
+
+
+.. data:: ST_ATIME
+
+ Time of last access.
+
+
+.. data:: ST_MTIME
+
+ Time of last modification.
+
+
+.. data:: ST_CTIME
+
+ The "ctime" as reported by the operating system. On some systems (like Unix) is
+ the time of the last metadata change, and, on others (like Windows), is the
+ creation time (see platform documentation for details).
+
+The interpretation of "file size" changes according to the file type. For plain
+files this is the size of the file in bytes. For FIFOs and sockets under most
+flavors of Unix (including Linux in particular), the "size" is the number of
+bytes waiting to be read at the time of the call to :func:`os.stat`,
+:func:`os.fstat`, or :func:`os.lstat`; this can sometimes be useful, especially
+for polling one of these special files after a non-blocking open. The meaning
+of the size field for other character and block devices varies more, depending
+on the implementation of the underlying system call.
+
+The variables below define the flags used in the :data:`ST_MODE` field.
+
+Use of the functions above is more portable than use of the first set of flags:
+
+.. data:: S_IFSOCK
+
+ Socket.
+
+.. data:: S_IFLNK
+
+ Symbolic link.
+
+.. data:: S_IFREG
+
+ Regular file.
+
+.. data:: S_IFBLK
+
+ Block device.
+
+.. data:: S_IFDIR
+
+ Directory.
+
+.. data:: S_IFCHR
+
+ Character device.
+
+.. data:: S_IFIFO
+
+ FIFO.
+
+The following flags can also be used in the *mode* argument of :func:`os.chmod`:
+
+.. data:: S_ISUID
+
+ Set UID bit.
+
+.. data:: S_ISGID
+
+ Set-group-ID bit. This bit has several special uses. For a directory
+ it indicates that BSD semantics is to be used for that directory:
+ files created there inherit their group ID from the directory, not
+ from the effective group ID of the creating process, and directories
+ created there will also get the :data:`S_ISGID` bit set. For a
+ file that does not have the group execution bit (:data:`S_IXGRP`)
+ set, the set-group-ID bit indicates mandatory file/record locking
+ (see also :data:`S_ENFMT`).
+
+.. data:: S_ISVTX
+
+ Sticky bit. When this bit is set on a directory it means that a file
+ in that directory can be renamed or deleted only by the owner of the
+ file, by the owner of the directory, or by a privileged process.
+
+.. data:: S_IRWXU
+
+ Mask for file owner permissions.
+
+.. data:: S_IRUSR
+
+ Owner has read permission.
+
+.. data:: S_IWUSR
+
+ Owner has write permission.
+
+.. data:: S_IXUSR
+
+ Owner has execute permission.
+
+.. data:: S_IRWXG
+
+ Mask for group permissions.
+
+.. data:: S_IRGRP
+
+ Group has read permission.
+
+.. data:: S_IWGRP
+
+ Group has write permission.
+
+.. data:: S_IXGRP
+
+ Group has execute permission.
+
+.. data:: S_IRWXO
+
+ Mask for permissions for others (not in group).
+
+.. data:: S_IROTH
+
+ Others have read permission.
+
+.. data:: S_IWOTH
+
+ Others have write permission.
+
+.. data:: S_IXOTH
+
+ Others have execute permission.
+
+.. data:: S_ENFMT
+
+ System V file locking enforcement. This flag is shared with :data:`S_ISGID`:
+ file/record locking is enforced on files that do not have the group
+ execution bit (:data:`S_IXGRP`) set.
+
+.. data:: S_IREAD
+
+ Unix V7 synonym for :data:`S_IRUSR`.
+
+.. data:: S_IWRITE
+
+ Unix V7 synonym for :data:`S_IWUSR`.
+
+.. data:: S_IEXEC
+
+ Unix V7 synonym for :data:`S_IXUSR`.
+
+The following flags can be used in the *flags* argument of :func:`os.chflags`:
+
+.. data:: UF_NODUMP
+
+ Do not dump the file.
+
+.. data:: UF_IMMUTABLE
+

+**************
+Built-in Types
+**************
+
+The following sections describe the standard types that are built into the
+interpreter.
+
+.. note::
+
+ Historically (until release 2.2), Python's built-in types have differed from
+ user-defined types because it was not possible to use the built-in types as the
+ basis for object-oriented inheritance. This limitation no longer
+ exists.
+
+.. index:: pair: built-in; types
+
+The principal built-in types are numerics, sequences, mappings, files, classes,
+instances and exceptions.
+
+.. index:: statement: print
+
+Some operations are supported by several object types; in particular,
+practically all objects can be compared, tested for truth value, and converted
+to a string (with the :ref:`repr() <func-repr>` function or the slightly different
+:func:`str` function). The latter function is implicitly used when an object is
+written by the :func:`print` function.
+
+
+.. _truth:
+
+Truth Value Testing
+===================
+
+.. index::
+ statement: if
+ statement: while
+ pair: truth; value
+ pair: Boolean; operations
+ single: false
+
+Any object can be tested for truth value, for use in an :keyword:`if` or
+:keyword:`while` condition or as operand of the Boolean operations below. The
+following values are considered false:
+
+ .. index:: single: None (Built-in object)
+
+* ``None``
+
+ .. index:: single: False (Built-in object)
+
+* ``False``
+
+* zero of any numeric type, for example, ``0``, ``0L``, ``0.0``, ``0j``.
+
+* any empty sequence, for example, ``''``, ``()``, ``[]``.
+
+* any empty mapping, for example, ``{}``.
+
+* instances of user-defined classes, if the class defines a :meth:`__nonzero__`
+ or :meth:`__len__` method, when that method returns the integer zero or
+ :class:`bool` value ``False``. [1]_
+
+.. index:: single: true
+
+All other values are considered true --- so objects of many types are always
+true.
+
+.. index::
+ operator: or
+ operator: and
+ single: False
+ single: True
+
+Operations and built-in functions that have a Boolean result always return ``0``
+or ``False`` for false and ``1`` or ``True`` for true, unless otherwise stated.
+(Important exception: the Boolean operations ``or`` and ``and`` always return
+one of their operands.)
+
+
+.. _boolean:
+
+Boolean Operations --- :keyword:`and`, :keyword:`or`, :keyword:`not`
+====================================================================
+
+.. index:: pair: Boolean; operations
+
+These are the Boolean operations, ordered by ascending priority:
+
++-------------+---------------------------------+-------+
+| Operation | Result | Notes |
++=============+=================================+=======+
+| ``x or y`` | if *x* is false, then *y*, else | \(1) |
+| | *x* | |
++-------------+---------------------------------+-------+
+| ``x and y`` | if *x* is false, then *x*, else | \(2) |
+| | *y* | |
++-------------+---------------------------------+-------+
+| ``not x`` | if *x* is false, then ``True``, | \(3) |
+| | else ``False`` | |
++-------------+---------------------------------+-------+
+
+.. index::
+ operator: and
+ operator: or
+ operator: not
+
+Notes:
+
+(1)
+ This is a short-circuit operator, so it only evaluates the second
+ argument if the first one is :const:`False`.
+
+(2)
+ This is a short-circuit operator, so it only evaluates the second
+ argument if the first one is :const:`True`.
+
+(3)
+ ``not`` has a lower priority than non-Boolean operators, so ``not a == b`` is
+ interpreted as ``not (a == b)``, and ``a == not b`` is a syntax error.
+
+

+Comparisons

+ pair: chaining; comparisons
+ pair: operator; comparison
+ operator: ==
+ operator: <
+ operator: <=
+ operator: >
+ operator: >=
+ operator: !=
+ operator: is
+ operator: is not
+
+Comparison operations are supported by all objects. They all have the same
+priority (which is higher than that of the Boolean operations). Comparisons can
+be chained arbitrarily; for example, ``x < y <= z`` is equivalent to ``x < y and
+y <= z``, except that *y* is evaluated only once (but in both cases *z* is not
+evaluated at all when ``x < y`` is found to be false).
+
+This table summarizes the comparison operations:
+
++------------+-------------------------+-------+
+| Operation | Meaning | Notes |
++============+=========================+=======+
+| ``<`` | strictly less than | |
++------------+-------------------------+-------+
+| ``<=`` | less than or equal | |
++------------+-------------------------+-------+
+| ``>`` | strictly greater than | |
++------------+-------------------------+-------+
+| ``>=`` | greater than or equal | |
++------------+-------------------------+-------+
+| ``==`` | equal | |
++------------+-------------------------+-------+
+| ``!=`` | not equal | \(1) |
++------------+-------------------------+-------+

++------------+-------------------------+-------+
+| ``is not`` | negated object identity | |
++------------+-------------------------+-------+
+
+Notes:
+

+ ``!=`` can also be written ``<>``, but this is an obsolete usage
+ kept for backwards compatibility only. New code should always use
+ ``!=``.
+
+.. index::
+ pair: object; numeric
+ pair: objects; comparing
+
+Objects of different types, except different numeric types and different string
+types, never compare equal; such objects are ordered consistently but
+arbitrarily (so that sorting a heterogeneous array yields a consistent result).
+Furthermore, some types (for example, file objects) support only a degenerate
+notion of comparison where any two objects of that type are unequal. Again,
+such objects are ordered arbitrarily but consistently. The ``<``, ``<=``, ``>``
+and ``>=`` operators will raise a :exc:`TypeError` exception when any operand is
+a complex number.
+
+.. index:: single: __cmp__() (instance method)
+
+Instances of a class normally compare as non-equal unless the class defines the
+:meth:`__cmp__` method. Refer to :ref:`customization`) for information on the
+use of this method to effect object comparisons.
+
+.. impl-detail::
+
+ Objects of different types except numbers are ordered by their type names;
+ objects of the same types that don't support proper comparison are ordered by
+ their address.
+

+
+Two more operations with the same syntactic priority, ``in`` and ``not in``, are
+supported only by sequence types (below).

+Numeric Types --- :class:`int`, :class:`float`, :class:`long`, :class:`complex`
+===============================================================================
+
+.. index::
+ object: numeric
+ object: Boolean
+ object: integer
+ object: long integer
+ object: floating point
+ object: complex number
+ pair: C; language
+
+There are four distinct numeric types: :dfn:`plain integers`, :dfn:`long
+integers`, :dfn:`floating point numbers`, and :dfn:`complex numbers`. In
+addition, Booleans are a subtype of plain integers. Plain integers (also just
+called :dfn:`integers`) are implemented using :c:type:`long` in C, which gives
+them at least 32 bits of precision (``sys.maxint`` is always set to the maximum
+plain integer value for the current platform, the minimum value is
+``-sys.maxint - 1``). Long integers have unlimited precision. Floating point
+numbers are usually implemented using :c:type:`double` in C; information about
+the precision and internal representation of floating point numbers for the
+machine on which your program is running is available in
+:data:`sys.float_info`. Complex numbers have a real and imaginary part, which
+are each a floating point number. To extract these parts from a complex number
+*z*, use ``z.real`` and ``z.imag``. (The standard library includes additional
+numeric types, :mod:`fractions` that hold rationals, and :mod:`decimal` that
+hold floating-point numbers with user-definable precision.)
+
+.. index::
+ pair: numeric; literals
+ pair: integer; literals
+ triple: long; integer; literals
+ pair: floating point; literals
+ pair: complex number; literals
+ pair: hexadecimal; literals
+ pair: octal; literals
+
+Numbers are created by numeric literals or as the result of built-in functions
+and operators. Unadorned integer literals (including binary, hex, and octal
+numbers) yield plain integers unless the value they denote is too large to be
+represented as a plain integer, in which case they yield a long integer.
+Integer literals with an ``'L'`` or ``'l'`` suffix yield long integers (``'L'``
+is preferred because ``1l`` looks too much like eleven!). Numeric literals
+containing a decimal point or an exponent sign yield floating point numbers.
+Appending ``'j'`` or ``'J'`` to a numeric literal yields a complex number with a
+zero real part. A complex numeric literal is the sum of a real and an imaginary
+part.
+
+.. index::
+ single: arithmetic
+ builtin: int
+ builtin: long
+ builtin: float
+ builtin: complex
+ operator: +
+ operator: -
+ operator: *
+ operator: /
+ operator: //
+ operator: %
+ operator: **
+
+Python fully supports mixed arithmetic: when a binary arithmetic operator has
+operands of different numeric types, the operand with the "narrower" type is
+widened to that of the other, where plain integer is narrower than long integer
+is narrower than floating point is narrower than complex. Comparisons between
+numbers of mixed type use the same rule. [2]_ The constructors :func:`int`,
+:func:`long`, :func:`float`, and :func:`complex` can be used to produce numbers
+of a specific type.
+
+All built-in numeric types support the following operations. See
+:ref:`power` and later sections for the operators' priorities.

+
+Bitwise operations only make sense for integers. Negative numbers are treated
+as their 2's complement value (this assumes a sufficiently large number of bits
+that no overflow occurs during the operation).
+
+The priorities of the binary bitwise operations are all lower than the numeric
+operations and higher than the comparisons; the unary operation ``~`` has the
+same priority as the other unary numeric operations (``+`` and ``-``).
+
+This table lists the bitwise operations sorted in ascending priority
+(operations in the same box have the same priority):
+

++------------+--------------------------------+----------+
+| ``~x`` | the bits of *x* inverted | |
++------------+--------------------------------+----------+
+
+Notes:
+
+(1)
+ Negative shift counts are illegal and cause a :exc:`ValueError` to be raised.
+
+(2)
+ A left shift by *n* bits is equivalent to multiplication by ``pow(2, n)``. A
+ long integer is returned if the result exceeds the range of plain integers.
+
+(3)
+ A right shift by *n* bits is equivalent to division by ``pow(2, n)``.
+
+
+Additional Methods on Integer Types
+-----------------------------------
+
+The integer types implement the :class:`numbers.Integral` :term:`abstract base
+class`. In addition, they provide one more method:
+
+.. method:: int.bit_length()
+.. method:: long.bit_length()
+
+ Return the number of bits necessary to represent an integer in binary,
+ excluding the sign and leading zeros::
+
+ >>> n = -37
+ >>> bin(n)
+ '-0b100101'
+ >>> n.bit_length()
+ 6
+
+ More precisely, if ``x`` is nonzero, then ``x.bit_length()`` is the
+ unique positive integer ``k`` such that ``2**(k-1) <= abs(x) < 2**k``.
+ Equivalently, when ``abs(x)`` is small enough to have a correctly
+ rounded logarithm, then ``k = 1 + int(log(abs(x), 2))``.
+ If ``x`` is zero, then ``x.bit_length()`` returns ``0``.
+
+ Equivalent to::
+
+ def bit_length(self):
+ s = bin(self) # binary representation: bin(-37) --> '-0b100101'
+ s = s.lstrip('-0b') # remove leading zeros and minus sign
+ return len(s) # len('100101') --> 6
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+Additional Methods on Float
+---------------------------
+
+The float type implements the :class:`numbers.Real` :term:`abstract base
+class`. float also has the following additional methods.
+
+.. method:: float.as_integer_ratio()
+
+ Return a pair of integers whose ratio is exactly equal to the
+ original float and with a positive denominator. Raises
+ :exc:`OverflowError` on infinities and a :exc:`ValueError` on
+ NaNs.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+.. method:: float.is_integer()
+
+ Return ``True`` if the float instance is finite with integral
+ value, and ``False`` otherwise::
+
+ >>> (-2.0).is_integer()
+ True
+ >>> (3.2).is_integer()
+ False
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+Two methods support conversion to
+and from hexadecimal strings. Since Python's floats are stored
+internally as binary numbers, converting a float to or from a
+*decimal* string usually involves a small rounding error. In
+contrast, hexadecimal strings allow exact representation and
+specification of floating-point numbers. This can be useful when
+debugging, and in numerical work.
+
+
+.. method:: float.hex()
+
+ Return a representation of a floating-point number as a hexadecimal
+ string. For finite floating-point numbers, this representation
+ will always include a leading ``0x`` and a trailing ``p`` and
+ exponent.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. method:: float.fromhex(s)
+
+ Class method to return the float represented by a hexadecimal
+ string *s*. The string *s* may have leading and trailing
+ whitespace.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+Note that :meth:`float.hex` is an instance method, while
+:meth:`float.fromhex` is a class method.
+
+A hexadecimal string takes the form::
+
+ [sign] ['0x'] integer ['.' fraction] ['p' exponent]
+
+where the optional ``sign`` may by either ``+`` or ``-``, ``integer``
+and ``fraction`` are strings of hexadecimal digits, and ``exponent``
+is a decimal integer with an optional leading sign. Case is not
+significant, and there must be at least one hexadecimal digit in
+either the integer or the fraction. This syntax is similar to the
+syntax specified in section 6.4.4.2 of the C99 standard, and also to
+the syntax used in Java 1.5 onwards. In particular, the output of
+:meth:`float.hex` is usable as a hexadecimal floating-point literal in
+C or Java code, and hexadecimal strings produced by C's ``%a`` format
+character or Java's ``Double.toHexString`` are accepted by
+:meth:`float.fromhex`.
+
+
+Note that the exponent is written in decimal rather than hexadecimal,
+and that it gives the power of 2 by which to multiply the coefficient.
+For example, the hexadecimal string ``0x3.a7p10`` represents the
+floating-point number ``(3 + 10./16 + 7./16**2) * 2.0**10``, or
+``3740.0``::
+
+ >>> float.fromhex('0x3.a7p10')
+ 3740.0
+
+
+Applying the reverse conversion to ``3740.0`` gives a different
+hexadecimal string representing the same number::
+
+ >>> float.hex(3740.0)
+ '0x1.d380000000000p+11'
+
+
+.. _typeiter:
+
+Iterator Types
+==============
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+.. index::
+ single: iterator protocol
+ single: protocol; iterator
+ single: sequence; iteration
+ single: container; iteration over
+
+Python supports a concept of iteration over containers. This is implemented
+using two distinct methods; these are used to allow user-defined classes to
+support iteration. Sequences, described below in more detail, always support
+the iteration methods.
+
+One method needs to be defined for container objects to provide iteration
+support:
+
+.. XXX duplicated in reference/datamodel!
+
+.. method:: container.__iter__()
+
+ Return an iterator object. The object is required to support the iterator
+ protocol described below. If a container supports different types of
+ iteration, additional methods can be provided to specifically request
+ iterators for those iteration types. (An example of an object supporting
+ multiple forms of iteration would be a tree structure which supports both
+ breadth-first and depth-first traversal.) This method corresponds to the
+ :attr:`tp_iter` slot of the type structure for Python objects in the Python/C
+ API.
+
+The iterator objects themselves are required to support the following two
+methods, which together form the :dfn:`iterator protocol`:
+
+
+.. method:: iterator.__iter__()
+
+ Return the iterator object itself. This is required to allow both containers
+ and iterators to be used with the :keyword:`for` and :keyword:`in` statements.
+ This method corresponds to the :attr:`tp_iter` slot of the type structure for
+ Python objects in the Python/C API.
+
+
+.. method:: iterator.next()
+
+ Return the next item from the container. If there are no further items, raise
+ the :exc:`StopIteration` exception. This method corresponds to the
+ :attr:`tp_iternext` slot of the type structure for Python objects in the
+ Python/C API.
+
+Python defines several iterator objects to support iteration over general and
+specific sequence types, dictionaries, and other more specialized forms. The
+specific types are not important beyond their implementation of the iterator
+protocol.
+
+The intention of the protocol is that once an iterator's :meth:`next` method
+raises :exc:`StopIteration`, it will continue to do so on subsequent calls.
+Implementations that do not obey this property are deemed broken. (This
+constraint was added in Python 2.3; in Python 2.2, various iterators are broken
+according to this rule.)
+
+
+.. _generator-types:
+
+Generator Types
+---------------
+
+Python's :term:`generator`\s provide a convenient way to implement the iterator
+protocol. If a container object's :meth:`__iter__` method is implemented as a
+generator, it will automatically return an iterator object (technically, a
+generator object) supplying the :meth:`__iter__` and :meth:`next` methods. More
+information about generators can be found in :ref:`the documentation for the
+yield expression <yieldexpr>`.
+
+
+.. _typesseq:
+
+Sequence Types --- :class:`str`, :class:`unicode`, :class:`list`, :class:`tuple`, :class:`bytearray`, :class:`buffer`, :class:`xrange`
+======================================================================================================================================
+
+There are seven sequence types: strings, Unicode strings, lists, tuples,
+bytearrays, buffers, and xrange objects.
+
+For other containers see the built in :class:`dict` and :class:`set` classes,
+and the :mod:`collections` module.
+
+
+.. index::
+ object: sequence
+ object: string
+ object: Unicode
+ object: tuple
+ object: list
+ object: bytearray
+ object: buffer
+ object: xrange
+
+String literals are written in single or double quotes: ``'xyzzy'``,
+``"frobozz"``. See :ref:`strings` for more about string literals.
+Unicode strings are much like strings, but are specified in the syntax
+using a preceding ``'u'`` character: ``u'abc'``, ``u"def"``. In addition
+to the functionality described here, there are also string-specific
+methods described in the :ref:`string-methods` section. Lists are
+constructed with square brackets, separating items with commas: ``[a, b, c]``.
+Tuples are constructed by the comma operator (not within square
+brackets), with or without enclosing parentheses, but an empty tuple
+must have the enclosing parentheses, such as ``a, b, c`` or ``()``. A
+single item tuple must have a trailing comma, such as ``(d,)``.
+
+Bytearray objects are created with the built-in function :func:`bytearray`.
+
+Buffer objects are not directly supported by Python syntax, but can be created
+by calling the built-in function :func:`buffer`. They don't support
+concatenation or repetition.
+
+Objects of type xrange are similar to buffers in that there is no specific syntax to
+create them, but they are created using the :func:`xrange` function. They don't
+support slicing, concatenation or repetition, and using ``in``, ``not in``,
+:func:`min` or :func:`max` on them is inefficient.
+
+Most sequence types support the following operations. The ``in`` and ``not in``
+operations have the same priorities as the comparison operations. The ``+`` and
+``*`` operations have the same priority as the corresponding numeric operations.
+[3]_ Additional methods are provided for :ref:`typesseq-mutable`.
+
+This table lists the sequence operations sorted in ascending priority
+(operations in the same box have the same priority). In the table, *s* and *t*
+are sequences of the same type; *n*, *i* and *j* are integers:
+
++------------------+--------------------------------+----------+
+| Operation | Result | Notes |
++==================+================================+==========+
+| ``x in s`` | ``True`` if an item of *s* is | \(1) |
+| | equal to *x*, else ``False`` | |
++------------------+--------------------------------+----------+
+| ``x not in s`` | ``False`` if an item of *s* is | \(1) |
+| | equal to *x*, else ``True`` | |
++------------------+--------------------------------+----------+
+| ``s + t`` | the concatenation of *s* and | \(6) |
+| | *t* | |
++------------------+--------------------------------+----------+
+| ``s * n, n * s`` | *n* shallow copies of *s* | \(2) |
+| | concatenated | |
++------------------+--------------------------------+----------+
+| ``s[i]`` | *i*\ th item of *s*, origin 0 | \(3) |
++------------------+--------------------------------+----------+
+| ``s[i:j]`` | slice of *s* from *i* to *j* | (3)(4) |
++------------------+--------------------------------+----------+
+| ``s[i:j:k]`` | slice of *s* from *i* to *j* | (3)(5) |
+| | with step *k* | |
++------------------+--------------------------------+----------+
+| ``len(s)`` | length of *s* | |
++------------------+--------------------------------+----------+
+| ``min(s)`` | smallest item of *s* | |
++------------------+--------------------------------+----------+
+| ``max(s)`` | largest item of *s* | |
++------------------+--------------------------------+----------+
+| ``s.index(i)`` | index of the first occurence | |
+| | of *i* in *s* | |
++------------------+--------------------------------+----------+
+| ``s.count(i)`` | total number of occurences of | |
+| | *i* in *s* | |
++------------------+--------------------------------+----------+
+
+Sequence types also support comparisons. In particular, tuples and lists
+are compared lexicographically by comparing corresponding
+elements. This means that to compare equal, every element must compare
+equal and the two sequences must be of the same type and have the same
+length. (For full details see :ref:`comparisons` in the language
+reference.)
+
+.. index::
+ triple: operations on; sequence; types
+ builtin: len
+ builtin: min
+ builtin: max
+ pair: concatenation; operation
+ pair: repetition; operation
+ pair: subscript; operation
+ pair: slice; operation
+ pair: extended slice; operation
+ operator: in
+ operator: not in
+
+Notes:
+
+(1)
+ When *s* is a string or Unicode string object the ``in`` and ``not in``
+ operations act like a substring test. In Python versions before 2.3, *x* had to
+ be a string of length 1. In Python 2.3 and beyond, *x* may be a string of any
+ length.
+
+(2)
+ Values of *n* less than ``0`` are treated as ``0`` (which yields an empty
+ sequence of the same type as *s*). Note also that the copies are shallow;
+ nested structures are not copied. This often haunts new Python programmers;
+ consider:
+
+ >>> lists = [[]] * 3
+ >>> lists
+ [[], [], []]
+ >>> lists[0].append(3)
+ >>> lists
+ [[3], [3], [3]]
+
+ What has happened is that ``[[]]`` is a one-element list containing an empty
+ list, so all three elements of ``[[]] * 3`` are (pointers to) this single empty
+ list. Modifying any of the elements of ``lists`` modifies this single list.
+ You can create a list of different lists this way:
+
+ >>> lists = [[] for i in range(3)]
+ >>> lists[0].append(3)
+ >>> lists[1].append(5)
+ >>> lists[2].append(7)
+ >>> lists
+ [[3], [5], [7]]
+
+(3)
+ If *i* or *j* is negative, the index is relative to the end of the string:
+ ``len(s) + i`` or ``len(s) + j`` is substituted. But note that ``-0`` is still
+ ``0``.
+
+(4)
+ The slice of *s* from *i* to *j* is defined as the sequence of items with index
+ *k* such that ``i <= k < j``. If *i* or *j* is greater than ``len(s)``, use
+ ``len(s)``. If *i* is omitted or ``None``, use ``0``. If *j* is omitted or
+ ``None``, use ``len(s)``. If *i* is greater than or equal to *j*, the slice is
+ empty.
+
+(5)
+ The slice of *s* from *i* to *j* with step *k* is defined as the sequence of
+ items with index ``x = i + n*k`` such that ``0 <= n < (j-i)/k``. In other words,
+ the indices are ``i``, ``i+k``, ``i+2*k``, ``i+3*k`` and so on, stopping when
+ *j* is reached (but never including *j*). If *i* or *j* is greater than
+ ``len(s)``, use ``len(s)``. If *i* or *j* are omitted or ``None``, they become
+ "end" values (which end depends on the sign of *k*). Note, *k* cannot be zero.
+ If *k* is ``None``, it is treated like ``1``.
+
+(6)
+ .. impl-detail::
+
+ If *s* and *t* are both strings, some Python implementations such as
+ CPython can usually perform an in-place optimization for assignments of
+ the form ``s = s + t`` or ``s += t``. When applicable, this optimization
+ makes quadratic run-time much less likely. This optimization is both
+ version and implementation dependent. For performance sensitive code, it
+ is preferable to use the :meth:`str.join` method which assures consistent
+ linear concatenation performance across versions and implementations.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ Formerly, string concatenation never occurred in-place.

+
+String Methods
+--------------
+
+.. index:: pair: string; methods
+
+Below are listed the string methods which both 8-bit strings and
+Unicode objects support. Some of them are also available on :class:`bytearray`
+objects.
+
+In addition, Python's strings support the sequence type methods
+described in the :ref:`typesseq` section. To output formatted strings
+use template strings or the ``%`` operator described in the
+:ref:`string-formatting` section. Also, see the :mod:`re` module for
+string functions based on regular expressions.
+
+.. method:: str.capitalize()
+
+ Return a copy of the string with its first character capitalized and the
+ rest lowercased.
+
+ For 8-bit strings, this method is locale-dependent.
+
+
+.. method:: str.center(width[, fillchar])
+
+ Return centered in a string of length *width*. Padding is done using the
+ specified *fillchar* (default is a space).
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ Support for the *fillchar* argument.
+
+
+.. method:: str.count(sub[, start[, end]])
+
+ Return the number of non-overlapping occurrences of substring *sub* in the
+ range [*start*, *end*]. Optional arguments *start* and *end* are
+ interpreted as in slice notation.
+
+
+.. method:: str.decode([encoding[, errors]])
+
+ Decodes the string using the codec registered for *encoding*. *encoding*
+ defaults to the default string encoding. *errors* may be given to set a
+ different error handling scheme. The default is ``'strict'``, meaning that
+ encoding errors raise :exc:`UnicodeError`. Other possible values are
+ ``'ignore'``, ``'replace'`` and any other name registered via
+ :func:`codecs.register_error`, see section :ref:`codec-base-classes`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ Support for other error handling schemes added.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ Support for keyword arguments added.
+
+.. method:: str.encode([encoding[,errors]])
+
+ Return an encoded version of the string. Default encoding is the current
+ default string encoding. *errors* may be given to set a different error
+ handling scheme. The default for *errors* is ``'strict'``, meaning that
+ encoding errors raise a :exc:`UnicodeError`. Other possible values are
+ ``'ignore'``, ``'replace'``, ``'xmlcharrefreplace'``, ``'backslashreplace'`` and
+ any other name registered via :func:`codecs.register_error`, see section
+ :ref:`codec-base-classes`. For a list of possible encodings, see section
+ :ref:`standard-encodings`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ Support for ``'xmlcharrefreplace'`` and ``'backslashreplace'`` and other error
+ handling schemes added.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ Support for keyword arguments added.
+
+.. method:: str.endswith(suffix[, start[, end]])
+
+ Return ``True`` if the string ends with the specified *suffix*, otherwise return
+ ``False``. *suffix* can also be a tuple of suffixes to look for. With optional
+ *start*, test beginning at that position. With optional *end*, stop comparing
+ at that position.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ Accept tuples as *suffix*.
+
+
+.. method:: str.expandtabs([tabsize])
+
+ Return a copy of the string where all tab characters are replaced by one or
+ more spaces, depending on the current column and the given tab size. Tab
+ positions occur every *tabsize* characters (default is 8, giving tab
+ positions at columns 0, 8, 16 and so on). To expand the string, the current
+ column is set to zero and the string is examined character by character. If
+ the character is a tab (``\t``), one or more space characters are inserted
+ in the result until the current column is equal to the next tab position.
+ (The tab character itself is not copied.) If the character is a newline
+ (``\n``) or return (``\r``), it is copied and the current column is reset to
+ zero. Any other character is copied unchanged and the current column is
+ incremented by one regardless of how the character is represented when
+ printed.
+
+ >>> '01\t012\t0123\t01234'.expandtabs()
+ '01 012 0123 01234'
+ >>> '01\t012\t0123\t01234'.expandtabs(4)
+ '01 012 0123 01234'
+
+
+.. method:: str.find(sub[, start[, end]])
+
+ Return the lowest index in the string where substring *sub* is found, such
+ that *sub* is contained in the slice ``s[start:end]``. Optional arguments
+ *start* and *end* are interpreted as in slice notation. Return ``-1`` if
+ *sub* is not found.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ The :meth:`~str.find` method should be used only if you need to know the
+ position of *sub*. To check if *sub* is a substring or not, use the
+ :keyword:`in` operator::
+
+ >>> 'Py' in 'Python'
+ True
+
+
+.. method:: str.format(*args, **kwargs)
+
+ Perform a string formatting operation. The string on which this method is
+ called can contain literal text or replacement fields delimited by braces
+ ``{}``. Each replacement field contains either the numeric index of a
+ positional argument, or the name of a keyword argument. Returns a copy of
+ the string where each replacement field is replaced with the string value of
+ the corresponding argument.
+
+ >>> "The sum of 1 + 2 is {0}".format(1+2)
+ 'The sum of 1 + 2 is 3'
+
+ See :ref:`formatstrings` for a description of the various formatting options
+ that can be specified in format strings.
+
+ This method of string formatting is the new standard in Python 3, and
+ should be preferred to the ``%`` formatting described in
+ :ref:`string-formatting` in new code.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. method:: str.index(sub[, start[, end]])
+
+ Like :meth:`find`, but raise :exc:`ValueError` when the substring is not found.
+
+
+.. method:: str.isalnum()
+
+ Return true if all characters in the string are alphanumeric and there is at
+ least one character, false otherwise.
+
+ For 8-bit strings, this method is locale-dependent.
+
+
+.. method:: str.isalpha()
+
+ Return true if all characters in the string are alphabetic and there is at least
+ one character, false otherwise.
+
+ For 8-bit strings, this method is locale-dependent.
+
+
+.. method:: str.isdigit()
+
+ Return true if all characters in the string are digits and there is at least one
+ character, false otherwise.
+
+ For 8-bit strings, this method is locale-dependent.
+
+
+.. method:: str.islower()
+
+ Return true if all cased characters [4]_ in the string are lowercase and there is at
+ least one cased character, false otherwise.
+
+ For 8-bit strings, this method is locale-dependent.
+
+
+.. method:: str.isspace()
+
+ Return true if there are only whitespace characters in the string and there is
+ at least one character, false otherwise.
+
+ For 8-bit strings, this method is locale-dependent.
+
+
+.. method:: str.istitle()
+
+ Return true if the string is a titlecased string and there is at least one
+ character, for example uppercase characters may only follow uncased characters
+ and lowercase characters only cased ones. Return false otherwise.
+
+ For 8-bit strings, this method is locale-dependent.
+
+
+.. method:: str.isupper()
+
+ Return true if all cased characters [4]_ in the string are uppercase and there is at
+ least one cased character, false otherwise.
+
+ For 8-bit strings, this method is locale-dependent.
+
+
+.. method:: str.join(iterable)
+
+ Return a string which is the concatenation of the strings in the
+ :term:`iterable` *iterable*. The separator between elements is the string
+ providing this method.
+
+
+.. method:: str.ljust(width[, fillchar])
+
+ Return the string left justified in a string of length *width*. Padding is done
+ using the specified *fillchar* (default is a space). The original string is
+ returned if *width* is less than or equal to ``len(s)``.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ Support for the *fillchar* argument.
+
+
+.. method:: str.lower()
+
+ Return a copy of the string with all the cased characters [4]_ converted to
+ lowercase.
+
+ For 8-bit strings, this method is locale-dependent.
+
+
+.. method:: str.lstrip([chars])
+
+ Return a copy of the string with leading characters removed. The *chars*
+ argument is a string specifying the set of characters to be removed. If omitted
+ or ``None``, the *chars* argument defaults to removing whitespace. The *chars*
+ argument is not a prefix; rather, all combinations of its values are stripped:
+
+ >>> ' spacious '.lstrip()
+ 'spacious '
+ >>> 'www.example.com'.lstrip('cmowz.')
+ 'example.com'
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.2.2
+ Support for the *chars* argument.
+
+
+.. method:: str.partition(sep)
+
+ Split the string at the first occurrence of *sep*, and return a 3-tuple
+ containing the part before the separator, the separator itself, and the part
+ after the separator. If the separator is not found, return a 3-tuple containing
+ the string itself, followed by two empty strings.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. method:: str.replace(old, new[, count])
+
+ Return a copy of the string with all occurrences of substring *old* replaced by
+ *new*. If the optional argument *count* is given, only the first *count*
+ occurrences are replaced.
+
+
+.. method:: str.rfind(sub [,start [,end]])
+
+ Return the highest index in the string where substring *sub* is found, such
+ that *sub* is contained within ``s[start:end]``. Optional arguments *start*
+ and *end* are interpreted as in slice notation. Return ``-1`` on failure.
+
+
+.. method:: str.rindex(sub[, start[, end]])
+
+ Like :meth:`rfind` but raises :exc:`ValueError` when the substring *sub* is not
+ found.
+
+
+.. method:: str.rjust(width[, fillchar])
+
+ Return the string right justified in a string of length *width*. Padding is done
+ using the specified *fillchar* (default is a space). The original string is
+ returned if *width* is less than or equal to ``len(s)``.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ Support for the *fillchar* argument.
+
+
+.. method:: str.rpartition(sep)
+
+ Split the string at the last occurrence of *sep*, and return a 3-tuple
+ containing the part before the separator, the separator itself, and the part
+ after the separator. If the separator is not found, return a 3-tuple containing
+ two empty strings, followed by the string itself.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. method:: str.rsplit([sep [,maxsplit]])
+
+ Return a list of the words in the string, using *sep* as the delimiter string.
+ If *maxsplit* is given, at most *maxsplit* splits are done, the *rightmost*
+ ones. If *sep* is not specified or ``None``, any whitespace string is a
+ separator. Except for splitting from the right, :meth:`rsplit` behaves like
+ :meth:`split` which is described in detail below.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+.. method:: str.rstrip([chars])
+
+ Return a copy of the string with trailing characters removed. The *chars*
+ argument is a string specifying the set of characters to be removed. If omitted
+ or ``None``, the *chars* argument defaults to removing whitespace. The *chars*
+ argument is not a suffix; rather, all combinations of its values are stripped:
+
+ >>> ' spacious '.rstrip()
+ ' spacious'
+ >>> 'mississippi'.rstrip('ipz')
+ 'mississ'
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.2.2
+ Support for the *chars* argument.
+
+
+.. method:: str.split([sep[, maxsplit]])
+
+ Return a list of the words in the string, using *sep* as the delimiter
+ string. If *maxsplit* is given, at most *maxsplit* splits are done (thus,
+ the list will have at most ``maxsplit+1`` elements). If *maxsplit* is not
+ specified or ``-1``, then there is no limit on the number of splits
+ (all possible splits are made).
+
+ If *sep* is given, consecutive delimiters are not grouped together and are
+ deemed to delimit empty strings (for example, ``'1,,2'.split(',')`` returns
+ ``['1', '', '2']``). The *sep* argument may consist of multiple characters
+ (for example, ``'1<>2<>3'.split('<>')`` returns ``['1', '2', '3']``).
+ Splitting an empty string with a specified separator returns ``['']``.
+
+ If *sep* is not specified or is ``None``, a different splitting algorithm is
+ applied: runs of consecutive whitespace are regarded as a single separator,
+ and the result will contain no empty strings at the start or end if the
+ string has leading or trailing whitespace. Consequently, splitting an empty
+ string or a string consisting of just whitespace with a ``None`` separator
+ returns ``[]``.
+
+ For example, ``' 1 2 3 '.split()`` returns ``['1', '2', '3']``, and
+ ``' 1 2 3 '.split(None, 1)`` returns ``['1', '2 3 ']``.
+
+
+.. index::
+ single: universal newlines; str.splitlines method
+
+.. method:: str.splitlines([keepends])
+
+ Return a list of the lines in the string, breaking at line boundaries.
+ This method uses the :term:`universal newlines` approach to splitting lines.
+ Line breaks are not included in the resulting list unless *keepends* is
+ given and true.
+
+ For example, ``'ab c\n\nde fg\rkl\r\n'.splitlines()`` returns
+ ``['ab c', '', 'de fg', 'kl']``, while the same call with ``splitlines(True)``
+ returns ``['ab c\n', '\n', 'de fg\r', 'kl\r\n']``.
+
+ Unlike :meth:`~str.split` when a delimiter string *sep* is given, this
+ method returns an empty list for the empty string, and a terminal line
+ break does not result in an extra line.
+
+
+.. method:: str.startswith(prefix[, start[, end]])
+
+ Return ``True`` if string starts with the *prefix*, otherwise return ``False``.
+ *prefix* can also be a tuple of prefixes to look for. With optional *start*,
+ test string beginning at that position. With optional *end*, stop comparing
+ string at that position.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ Accept tuples as *prefix*.
+
+
+.. method:: str.strip([chars])
+
+ Return a copy of the string with the leading and trailing characters removed.
+ The *chars* argument is a string specifying the set of characters to be removed.
+ If omitted or ``None``, the *chars* argument defaults to removing whitespace.
+ The *chars* argument is not a prefix or suffix; rather, all combinations of its
+ values are stripped:
+
+ >>> ' spacious '.strip()
+ 'spacious'
+ >>> 'www.example.com'.strip('cmowz.')
+ 'example'
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.2.2
+ Support for the *chars* argument.
+
+
+.. method:: str.swapcase()
+
+ Return a copy of the string with uppercase characters converted to lowercase and
+ vice versa.
+
+ For 8-bit strings, this method is locale-dependent.
+
+
+.. method:: str.title()
+
+ Return a titlecased version of the string where words start with an uppercase
+ character and the remaining characters are lowercase.
+
+ The algorithm uses a simple language-independent definition of a word as
+ groups of consecutive letters. The definition works in many contexts but
+ it means that apostrophes in contractions and possessives form word
+ boundaries, which may not be the desired result::
+
+ >>> "they're bill's friends from the UK".title()
+ "They'Re Bill'S Friends From The Uk"
+
+ A workaround for apostrophes can be constructed using regular expressions::
+
+ >>> import re
+ >>> def titlecase(s):
+ ... return re.sub(r"[A-Za-z]+('[A-Za-z]+)?",
+ ... lambda mo: mo.group(0)[0].upper() +
+ ... mo.group(0)[1:].lower(),
+ ... s)
+ ...
+ >>> titlecase("they're bill's friends.")
+ "They're Bill's Friends."
+
+ For 8-bit strings, this method is locale-dependent.
+
+
+.. method:: str.translate(table[, deletechars])
+
+ Return a copy of the string where all characters occurring in the optional
+ argument *deletechars* are removed, and the remaining characters have been
+ mapped through the given translation table, which must be a string of length
+ 256.
+
+ You can use the :func:`~string.maketrans` helper function in the :mod:`string`
+ module to create a translation table. For string objects, set the *table*
+ argument to ``None`` for translations that only delete characters:
+
+ >>> 'read this short text'.translate(None, 'aeiou')
+ 'rd ths shrt txt'
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+ Support for a ``None`` *table* argument.
+
+ For Unicode objects, the :meth:`translate` method does not accept the optional
+ *deletechars* argument. Instead, it returns a copy of the *s* where all
+ characters have been mapped through the given translation table which must be a
+ mapping of Unicode ordinals to Unicode ordinals, Unicode strings or ``None``.
+ Unmapped characters are left untouched. Characters mapped to ``None`` are
+ deleted. Note, a more flexible approach is to create a custom character mapping
+ codec using the :mod:`codecs` module (see :mod:`encodings.cp1251` for an
+ example).
+
+
+.. method:: str.upper()
+
+ Return a copy of the string with all the cased characters [4]_ converted to
+ uppercase. Note that ``str.upper().isupper()`` might be ``False`` if ``s``
+ contains uncased characters or if the Unicode category of the resulting
+ character(s) is not "Lu" (Letter, uppercase), but e.g. "Lt" (Letter, titlecase).
+
+ For 8-bit strings, this method is locale-dependent.
+
+
+.. method:: str.zfill(width)
+
+ Return the numeric string left filled with zeros in a string of length
+ *width*. A sign prefix is handled correctly. The original string is
+ returned if *width* is less than or equal to ``len(s)``.
+
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2.2
+
+The following methods are present only on unicode objects:
+
+.. method:: unicode.isnumeric()
+
+ Return ``True`` if there are only numeric characters in S, ``False``
+ otherwise. Numeric characters include digit characters, and all characters
+ that have the Unicode numeric value property, e.g. U+2155,
+ VULGAR FRACTION ONE FIFTH.
+
+.. method:: unicode.isdecimal()
+
+ Return ``True`` if there are only decimal characters in S, ``False``
+ otherwise. Decimal characters include digit characters, and all characters
+ that can be used to form decimal-radix numbers, e.g. U+0660,
+ ARABIC-INDIC DIGIT ZERO.

+
+String and Unicode objects have one unique built-in operation: the ``%``
+operator (modulo). This is also known as the string *formatting* or
+*interpolation* operator. Given ``format % values`` (where *format* is a string
+or Unicode object), ``%`` conversion specifications in *format* are replaced
+with zero or more elements of *values*. The effect is similar to the using
+:c:func:`sprintf` in the C language. If *format* is a Unicode object, or if any
+of the objects being converted using the ``%s`` conversion are Unicode objects,
+the result will also be a Unicode object.
+
+If *format* requires a single argument, *values* may be a single non-tuple
+object. [5]_ Otherwise, *values* must be a tuple with exactly the number of
+items specified by the format string, or a single mapping object (for example, a
+dictionary).
+
+A conversion specifier contains two or more characters and has the following
+components, which must occur in this order:
+
+#. The ``'%'`` character, which marks the start of the specifier.
+
+#. Mapping key (optional), consisting of a parenthesised sequence of characters
+ (for example, ``(somename)``).
+
+#. Conversion flags (optional), which affect the result of some conversion
+ types.
+
+#. Minimum field width (optional). If specified as an ``'*'`` (asterisk), the
+ actual width is read from the next element of the tuple in *values*, and the
+ object to convert comes after the minimum field width and optional precision.
+
+#. Precision (optional), given as a ``'.'`` (dot) followed by the precision. If
+ specified as ``'*'`` (an asterisk), the actual width is read from the next
+ element of the tuple in *values*, and the value to convert comes after the
+ precision.
+
+#. Length modifier (optional).
+
+#. Conversion type.
+
+When the right argument is a dictionary (or other mapping type), then the
+formats in the string *must* include a parenthesised mapping key into that
+dictionary inserted immediately after the ``'%'`` character. The mapping key
+selects the value to be formatted from the mapping. For example:
+
+ >>> print '%(language)s has %(number)03d quote types.' % \
+ ... {"language": "Python", "number": 2}
+ Python has 002 quote types.
+
+In this case no ``*`` specifiers may occur in a format (since they require a
+sequential parameter list).
+
+The conversion flag characters are:
+
++---------+---------------------------------------------------------------------+
+| Flag | Meaning |
++=========+=====================================================================+
+| ``'#'`` | The value conversion will use the "alternate form" (where defined |
+| | below). |
++---------+---------------------------------------------------------------------+
+| ``'0'`` | The conversion will be zero padded for numeric values. |
++---------+---------------------------------------------------------------------+
+| ``'-'`` | The converted value is left adjusted (overrides the ``'0'`` |
+| | conversion if both are given). |
++---------+---------------------------------------------------------------------+
+| ``' '`` | (a space) A blank should be left before a positive number (or empty |
+| | string) produced by a signed conversion. |
++---------+---------------------------------------------------------------------+
+| ``'+'`` | A sign character (``'+'`` or ``'-'``) will precede the conversion |
+| | (overrides a "space" flag). |
++---------+---------------------------------------------------------------------+
+
+A length modifier (``h``, ``l``, or ``L``) may be present, but is ignored as it
+is not necessary for Python -- so e.g. ``%ld`` is identical to ``%d``.
+
+The conversion types are:
+
++------------+-----------------------------------------------------+-------+

+
+Notes:
+
+(1)
+ The alternate form causes a leading zero (``'0'``) to be inserted between
+ left-hand padding and the formatting of the number if the leading character
+ of the result is not already a zero.
+
+(2)
+ The alternate form causes a leading ``'0x'`` or ``'0X'`` (depending on whether
+ the ``'x'`` or ``'X'`` format was used) to be inserted between left-hand padding
+ and the formatting of the number if the leading character of the result is not
+ already a zero.
+
+(3)
+ The alternate form causes the result to always contain a decimal point, even if
+ no digits follow it.
+
+ The precision determines the number of digits after the decimal point and
+ defaults to 6.
+
+(4)
+ The alternate form causes the result to always contain a decimal point, and
+ trailing zeroes are not removed as they would otherwise be.
+
+ The precision determines the number of significant digits before and after the
+ decimal point and defaults to 6.
+
+(5)
+ The ``%r`` conversion was added in Python 2.0.
+
+ The precision determines the maximal number of characters used.
+
+(6)
+ If the object or format provided is a :class:`unicode` string, the resulting
+ string will also be :class:`unicode`.
+
+ The precision determines the maximal number of characters used.
+
+(7)
+ See :pep:`237`.
+
+Since Python strings have an explicit length, ``%s`` conversions do not assume
+that ``'\0'`` is the end of the string.

+
+
+.. _typesseq-xrange:
+
+XRange Type
+-----------
+
+.. index:: object: xrange
+
+The :class:`xrange` type is an immutable sequence which is commonly used for
+looping. The advantage of the :class:`xrange` type is that an :class:`xrange`
+object will always take the same amount of memory, no matter the size of the
+range it represents. There are no consistent performance advantages.
+
+XRange objects have very little behavior: they only support indexing, iteration,
+and the :func:`len` function.
+
+
+.. _typesseq-mutable:
+
+Mutable Sequence Types
+----------------------
+
+.. index::
+ triple: mutable; sequence; types
+ object: list
+
+List and :class:`bytearray` objects support additional operations that allow
+in-place modification of the object. Other mutable sequence types (when added
+to the language) should also support these operations. Strings and tuples
+are immutable sequence types: such objects cannot be modified once created.
+The following operations are defined on mutable sequence types (where *x* is
+an arbitrary object):

+(1)
+ *t* must have the same length as the slice it is replacing.
+
+(2)
+ The C implementation of Python has historically accepted multiple parameters and

+ this misfeature has been deprecated since Python 1.4.
+
+(3)
+ *x* can be any iterable object.
+
+(4)
+ Raises :exc:`ValueError` when *x* is not found in *s*. When a negative index is
+ passed as the second or third parameter to the :meth:`index` method, the list
+ length is added, as for slice indices. If it is still negative, it is truncated
+ to zero, as for slice indices.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ Previously, :meth:`index` didn't have arguments for specifying start and stop
+ positions.
+
+(5)
+ When a negative index is passed as the first parameter to the :meth:`insert`
+ method, the list length is added, as for slice indices. If it is still
+ negative, it is truncated to zero, as for slice indices.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ Previously, all negative indices were truncated to zero.
+
+(6)
+ The :meth:`pop` method is only supported by the list and array types. The
+ optional argument *i* defaults to ``-1``, so that by default the last item is
+ removed and returned.
+
+(7)
+ The :meth:`sort` and :meth:`reverse` methods modify the list in place for
+ economy of space when sorting or reversing a large list. To remind you that
+ they operate by side effect, they don't return the sorted or reversed list.
+
+(8)
+ The :meth:`sort` method takes optional arguments for controlling the
+ comparisons.
+
+ *cmp* specifies a custom comparison function of two arguments (list items) which
+ should return a negative, zero or positive number depending on whether the first
+ argument is considered smaller than, equal to, or larger than the second
+ argument: ``cmp=lambda x,y: cmp(x.lower(), y.lower())``. The default value
+ is ``None``.
+
+ *key* specifies a function of one argument that is used to extract a comparison
+ key from each list element: ``key=str.lower``. The default value is ``None``.
+
+ *reverse* is a boolean value. If set to ``True``, then the list elements are
+ sorted as if each comparison were reversed.
+
+ In general, the *key* and *reverse* conversion processes are much faster than
+ specifying an equivalent *cmp* function. This is because *cmp* is called
+ multiple times for each list element while *key* and *reverse* touch each
+ element only once. Use :func:`functools.cmp_to_key` to convert an
+ old-style *cmp* function to a *key* function.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ Support for ``None`` as an equivalent to omitting *cmp* was added.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ Support for *key* and *reverse* was added.
+
+(9)
+ Starting with Python 2.3, the :meth:`sort` method is guaranteed to be stable. A
+ sort is stable if it guarantees not to change the relative order of elements
+ that compare equal --- this is helpful for sorting in multiple passes (for
+ example, sort by department, then by salary grade).
+
+(10)
+ .. impl-detail::
+
+ While a list is being sorted, the effect of attempting to mutate, or even
+ inspect, the list is undefined. The C implementation of Python 2.3 and
+ newer makes the list appear empty for the duration, and raises
+ :exc:`ValueError` if it can detect that the list has been mutated during a
+ sort.
+
+
+.. _types-set:
+
+Set Types --- :class:`set`, :class:`frozenset`
+==============================================
+
+.. index:: object: set
+
+A :dfn:`set` object is an unordered collection of distinct :term:`hashable` objects.
+Common uses include membership testing, removing duplicates from a sequence, and
+computing mathematical operations such as intersection, union, difference, and
+symmetric difference.
+(For other containers see the built in :class:`dict`, :class:`list`,
+and :class:`tuple` classes, and the :mod:`collections` module.)
+
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+Like other collections, sets support ``x in set``, ``len(set)``, and ``for x in
+set``. Being an unordered collection, sets do not record element position or
+order of insertion. Accordingly, sets do not support indexing, slicing, or
+other sequence-like behavior.
+
+There are currently two built-in set types, :class:`set` and :class:`frozenset`.
+The :class:`set` type is mutable --- the contents can be changed using methods
+like :meth:`add` and :meth:`remove`. Since it is mutable, it has no hash value
+and cannot be used as either a dictionary key or as an element of another set.
+The :class:`frozenset` type is immutable and :term:`hashable` --- its contents
+cannot be altered after it is created; it can therefore be used as a dictionary
+key or as an element of another set.
+
+As of Python 2.7, non-empty sets (not frozensets) can be created by placing a
+comma-separated list of elements within braces, for example: ``{'jack',
+'sjoerd'}``, in addition to the :class:`set` constructor.
+
+The constructors for both classes work the same:
+
+.. class:: set([iterable])
+ frozenset([iterable])
+
+ Return a new set or frozenset object whose elements are taken from
+ *iterable*. The elements of a set must be :term:`hashable`. To
+ represent sets of sets, the inner sets must be :class:`frozenset`
+ objects. If *iterable* is not specified, a new empty set is
+ returned.
+
+ Instances of :class:`set` and :class:`frozenset` provide the following
+ operations:
+
+ .. describe:: len(s)
+
+ Return the cardinality of set *s*.
+
+ .. describe:: x in s
+
+ Test *x* for membership in *s*.
+
+ .. describe:: x not in s
+
+ Test *x* for non-membership in *s*.
+
+ .. method:: isdisjoint(other)
+
+ Return True if the set has no elements in common with *other*. Sets are
+ disjoint if and only if their intersection is the empty set.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. method:: issubset(other)
+ set <= other
+
+ Test whether every element in the set is in *other*.
+
+ .. method:: set < other
+
+ Test whether the set is a proper subset of *other*, that is,
+ ``set <= other and set != other``.
+
+ .. method:: issuperset(other)
+ set >= other
+
+ Test whether every element in *other* is in the set.
+
+ .. method:: set > other
+
+ Test whether the set is a proper superset of *other*, that is, ``set >=
+ other and set != other``.
+
+ .. method:: union(other, ...)
+ set | other | ...
+
+ Return a new set with elements from the set and all others.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ Accepts multiple input iterables.
+
+ .. method:: intersection(other, ...)
+ set & other & ...
+
+ Return a new set with elements common to the set and all others.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ Accepts multiple input iterables.
+
+ .. method:: difference(other, ...)
+ set - other - ...
+
+ Return a new set with elements in the set that are not in the others.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ Accepts multiple input iterables.
+
+ .. method:: symmetric_difference(other)
+ set ^ other
+
+ Return a new set with elements in either the set or *other* but not both.
+
+ .. method:: copy()
+
+ Return a new set with a shallow copy of *s*.
+
+
+ Note, the non-operator versions of :meth:`union`, :meth:`intersection`,
+ :meth:`difference`, and :meth:`symmetric_difference`, :meth:`issubset`, and
+ :meth:`issuperset` methods will accept any iterable as an argument. In
+ contrast, their operator based counterparts require their arguments to be
+ sets. This precludes error-prone constructions like ``set('abc') & 'cbs'``
+ in favor of the more readable ``set('abc').intersection('cbs')``.
+
+ Both :class:`set` and :class:`frozenset` support set to set comparisons. Two
+ sets are equal if and only if every element of each set is contained in the
+ other (each is a subset of the other). A set is less than another set if and
+ only if the first set is a proper subset of the second set (is a subset, but
+ is not equal). A set is greater than another set if and only if the first set
+ is a proper superset of the second set (is a superset, but is not equal).
+
+ Instances of :class:`set` are compared to instances of :class:`frozenset`
+ based on their members. For example, ``set('abc') == frozenset('abc')``
+ returns ``True`` and so does ``set('abc') in set([frozenset('abc')])``.
+
+ The subset and equality comparisons do not generalize to a total ordering
+ function. For example, any two non-empty disjoint sets are not equal and are not
+ subsets of each other, so *all* of the following return ``False``: ``a<b``,
+ ``a==b``, or ``a>b``. Accordingly, sets do not implement the :meth:`__cmp__`
+ method.
+
+ Since sets only define partial ordering (subset relationships), the output of
+ the :meth:`list.sort` method is undefined for lists of sets.
+
+ Set elements, like dictionary keys, must be :term:`hashable`.
+
+ Binary operations that mix :class:`set` instances with :class:`frozenset`
+ return the type of the first operand. For example: ``frozenset('ab') |
+ set('bc')`` returns an instance of :class:`frozenset`.
+
+ The following table lists operations available for :class:`set` that do not
+ apply to immutable instances of :class:`frozenset`:
+
+ .. method:: update(other, ...)
+ set |= other | ...
+
+ Update the set, adding elements from all others.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ Accepts multiple input iterables.
+
+ .. method:: intersection_update(other, ...)
+ set &= other & ...
+
+ Update the set, keeping only elements found in it and all others.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ Accepts multiple input iterables.
+
+ .. method:: difference_update(other, ...)
+ set -= other | ...
+
+ Update the set, removing elements found in others.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ Accepts multiple input iterables.
+
+ .. method:: symmetric_difference_update(other)
+ set ^= other
+
+ Update the set, keeping only elements found in either set, but not in both.
+
+ .. method:: add(elem)
+
+ Add element *elem* to the set.
+
+ .. method:: remove(elem)
+
+ Remove element *elem* from the set. Raises :exc:`KeyError` if *elem* is
+ not contained in the set.
+
+ .. method:: discard(elem)
+
+ Remove element *elem* from the set if it is present.
+
+ .. method:: pop()
+
+ Remove and return an arbitrary element from the set. Raises
+ :exc:`KeyError` if the set is empty.
+
+ .. method:: clear()
+
+ Remove all elements from the set.
+
+
+ Note, the non-operator versions of the :meth:`update`,
+ :meth:`intersection_update`, :meth:`difference_update`, and
+ :meth:`symmetric_difference_update` methods will accept any iterable as an
+ argument.
+
+ Note, the *elem* argument to the :meth:`__contains__`, :meth:`remove`, and
+ :meth:`discard` methods may be a set. To support searching for an equivalent
+ frozenset, the *elem* set is temporarily mutated during the search and then
+ restored. During the search, the *elem* set should not be read or mutated
+ since it does not have a meaningful value.

+.. _typesmapping:
+
+Mapping Types --- :class:`dict`
+===============================
+
+.. index::
+ object: mapping
+ object: dictionary
+ triple: operations on; mapping; types
+ triple: operations on; dictionary; type
+ statement: del
+ builtin: len
+
+A :term:`mapping` object maps :term:`hashable` values to arbitrary objects.
+Mappings are mutable objects. There is currently only one standard mapping
+type, the :dfn:`dictionary`. (For other containers see the built in
+:class:`list`, :class:`set`, and :class:`tuple` classes, and the
+:mod:`collections` module.)
+
+A dictionary's keys are *almost* arbitrary values. Values that are not
+:term:`hashable`, that is, values containing lists, dictionaries or other
+mutable types (that are compared by value rather than by object identity) may
+not be used as keys. Numeric types used for keys obey the normal rules for
+numeric comparison: if two numbers compare equal (such as ``1`` and ``1.0``)
+then they can be used interchangeably to index the same dictionary entry. (Note
+however, that since computers store floating-point numbers as approximations it
+is usually unwise to use them as dictionary keys.)
+
+Dictionaries can be created by placing a comma-separated list of ``key: value``
+pairs within braces, for example: ``{'jack': 4098, 'sjoerd': 4127}`` or ``{4098:
+'jack', 4127: 'sjoerd'}``, or by the :class:`dict` constructor.
+
+.. class:: dict(**kwarg)
+ dict(mapping, **kwarg)
+ dict(iterable, **kwarg)
+
+ Return a new dictionary initialized from an optional positional argument
+ and a possibly empty set of keyword arguments.
+
+ If no positional argument is given, an empty dictionary is created.
+ If a positional argument is given and it is a mapping object, a dictionary
+ is created with the same key-value pairs as the mapping object. Otherwise,
+ the positional argument must be an :term:`iterator` object. Each item in
+ the iterable must itself be an iterator with exactly two objects. The
+ first object of each item becomes a key in the new dictionary, and the
+ second object the corresponding value. If a key occurs more than once, the
+ last value for that key becomes the corresponding value in the new
+ dictionary.
+
+ If keyword arguments are given, the keyword arguments and their values are
+ added to the dictionary created from the positional argument. If a key
+ being added is already present, the value from the keyword argument
+ replaces the value from the positional argument.
+
+ To illustrate, the following examples all return a dictionary equal to
+ ``{"one": 1, "two": 2, "three": 3}``::
+
+ >>> a = dict(one=1, two=2, three=3)
+ >>> b = {'one': 1, 'two': 2, 'three': 3}
+ >>> c = dict(zip(['one', 'two', 'three'], [1, 2, 3]))
+ >>> d = dict([('two', 2), ('one', 1), ('three', 3)])
+ >>> e = dict({'three': 3, 'one': 1, 'two': 2})
+ >>> a == b == c == d == e
+ True
+
+ Providing keyword arguments as in the first example only works for keys that
+ are valid Python identifiers. Otherwise, any valid keys can be used.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ Support for building a dictionary from keyword arguments added.
+
+
+ These are the operations that dictionaries support (and therefore, custom
+ mapping types should support too):
+
+ .. describe:: len(d)
+
+ Return the number of items in the dictionary *d*.
+
+ .. describe:: d[key]
+
+ Return the item of *d* with key *key*. Raises a :exc:`KeyError` if *key*
+ is not in the map.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+ If a subclass of dict defines a method :meth:`__missing__`, if the key
+ *key* is not present, the ``d[key]`` operation calls that method with
+ the key *key* as argument. The ``d[key]`` operation then returns or
+ raises whatever is returned or raised by the ``__missing__(key)`` call
+ if the key is not present. No other operations or methods invoke
+ :meth:`__missing__`. If :meth:`__missing__` is not defined,
+ :exc:`KeyError` is raised. :meth:`__missing__` must be a method; it
+ cannot be an instance variable. For an example, see
+ :class:`collections.defaultdict`.

+
+ .. method:: copy()
+
+ Return a shallow copy of the dictionary.
+
+ .. method:: fromkeys(seq[, value])
+
+ Create a new dictionary with keys from *seq* and values set to *value*.
+
+ :func:`fromkeys` is a class method that returns a new dictionary. *value*
+ defaults to ``None``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+ .. method:: get(key[, default])
+
+ Return the value for *key* if *key* is in the dictionary, else *default*.
+ If *default* is not given, it defaults to ``None``, so that this method
+ never raises a :exc:`KeyError`.
+
+ .. method:: has_key(key)
+
+ Test for the presence of *key* in the dictionary. :meth:`has_key` is
+ deprecated in favor of ``key in d``.
+
+ .. method:: items()
+
+ Return a copy of the dictionary's list of ``(key, value)`` pairs.
+
+ .. impl-detail::
+
+ Keys and values are listed in an arbitrary order which is non-random,
+ varies across Python implementations, and depends on the dictionary's
+ history of insertions and deletions.
+
+ If :meth:`items`, :meth:`keys`, :meth:`values`, :meth:`iteritems`,
+ :meth:`iterkeys`, and :meth:`itervalues` are called with no intervening
+ modifications to the dictionary, the lists will directly correspond. This
+ allows the creation of ``(value, key)`` pairs using :func:`zip`: ``pairs =
+ zip(d.values(), d.keys())``. The same relationship holds for the
+ :meth:`iterkeys` and :meth:`itervalues` methods: ``pairs =
+ zip(d.itervalues(), d.iterkeys())`` provides the same value for
+ ``pairs``. Another way to create the same list is ``pairs = [(v, k) for
+ (k, v) in d.iteritems()]``.
+
+ .. method:: iteritems()
+
+ Return an iterator over the dictionary's ``(key, value)`` pairs. See the

+
+ Using :meth:`iteritems` while adding or deleting entries in the dictionary
+ may raise a :exc:`RuntimeError` or fail to iterate over all entries.

+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+ .. method:: popitem()
+
+ Remove and return an arbitrary ``(key, value)`` pair from the dictionary.
+
+ :func:`popitem` is useful to destructively iterate over a dictionary, as
+ often used in set algorithms. If the dictionary is empty, calling
+ :func:`popitem` raises a :exc:`KeyError`.
+
+ .. method:: setdefault(key[, default])
+
+ If *key* is in the dictionary, return its value. If not, insert *key*
+ with a value of *default* and return *default*. *default* defaults to
+ ``None``.
+
+ .. method:: update([other])
+
+ Update the dictionary with the key/value pairs from *other*, overwriting
+ existing keys. Return ``None``.
+
+ :func:`update` accepts either another dictionary object or an iterable of
+ key/value pairs (as tuples or other iterables of length two). If keyword
+ arguments are specified, the dictionary is then updated with those
+ key/value pairs: ``d.update(red=1, blue=2)``.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ Allowed the argument to be an iterable of key/value pairs and allowed

+.. _dict-views:
+
+Dictionary view objects
+-----------------------
+
+The objects returned by :meth:`dict.viewkeys`, :meth:`dict.viewvalues` and
+:meth:`dict.viewitems` are *view objects*. They provide a dynamic view on the
+dictionary's entries, which means that when the dictionary changes, the view
+reflects these changes.
+
+Dictionary views can be iterated over to yield their respective data, and
+support membership tests:
+
+.. describe:: len(dictview)
+
+ Return the number of entries in the dictionary.
+
+.. describe:: iter(dictview)
+
+ Return an iterator over the keys, values or items (represented as tuples of
+ ``(key, value)``) in the dictionary.
+
+ Keys and values are iterated over in an arbitrary order which is non-random,
+ varies across Python implementations, and depends on the dictionary's history
+ of insertions and deletions. If keys, values and items views are iterated
+ over with no intervening modifications to the dictionary, the order of items
+ will directly correspond. This allows the creation of ``(value, key)`` pairs
+ using :func:`zip`: ``pairs = zip(d.values(), d.keys())``. Another way to
+ create the same list is ``pairs = [(v, k) for (k, v) in d.items()]``.
+
+ Iterating views while adding or deleting entries in the dictionary may raise
+ a :exc:`RuntimeError` or fail to iterate over all entries.
+
+.. describe:: x in dictview
+
+ Return ``True`` if *x* is in the underlying dictionary's keys, values or
+ items (in the latter case, *x* should be a ``(key, value)`` tuple).
+
+
+Keys views are set-like since their entries are unique and hashable. If all
+values are hashable, so that (key, value) pairs are unique and hashable, then
+the items view is also set-like. (Values views are not treated as set-like
+since the entries are generally not unique.) Then these set operations are
+available ("other" refers either to another view or a set):
+
+.. describe:: dictview & other
+
+ Return the intersection of the dictview and the other object as a new set.
+
+.. describe:: dictview | other
+
+ Return the union of the dictview and the other object as a new set.
+
+.. describe:: dictview - other
+
+ Return the difference between the dictview and the other object (all elements
+ in *dictview* that aren't in *other*) as a new set.
+
+.. describe:: dictview ^ other
+
+ Return the symmetric difference (all elements either in *dictview* or
+ *other*, but not in both) of the dictview and the other object as a new set.
+
+
+An example of dictionary view usage::
+
+ >>> dishes = {'eggs': 2, 'sausage': 1, 'bacon': 1, 'spam': 500}
+ >>> keys = dishes.viewkeys()
+ >>> values = dishes.viewvalues()
+
+ >>> # iteration
+ >>> n = 0
+ >>> for val in values:
+ ... n += val
+ >>> print(n)
+ 504
+
+ >>> # keys and values are iterated over in the same order
+ >>> list(keys)
+ ['eggs', 'bacon', 'sausage', 'spam']
+ >>> list(values)
+ [2, 1, 1, 500]
+
+ >>> # view objects are dynamic and reflect dict changes
+ >>> del dishes['eggs']
+ >>> del dishes['sausage']
+ >>> list(keys)
+ ['spam', 'bacon']
+
+ >>> # set operations
+ >>> keys & {'eggs', 'bacon', 'salad'}
+ {'bacon'}

+
+File Objects
+============
+
+.. index::
+ object: file
+ builtin: file
+ module: os
+ module: socket
+
+File objects are implemented using C's ``stdio`` package and can be
+created with the built-in :func:`open` function. File
+objects are also returned by some other built-in functions and methods,
+such as :func:`os.popen` and :func:`os.fdopen` and the :meth:`makefile`
+method of socket objects. Temporary files can be created using the
+:mod:`tempfile` module, and high-level file operations such as copying,
+moving, and deleting files and directories can be achieved with the
+:mod:`shutil` module.
+
+When a file operation fails for an I/O-related reason, the exception
+:exc:`IOError` is raised. This includes situations where the operation is not
+defined for some reason, like :meth:`seek` on a tty device or writing a file
+opened for reading.
+
+Files have the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: file.close()
+
+ Close the file. A closed file cannot be read or written any more. Any operation
+ which requires that the file be open will raise a :exc:`ValueError` after the
+ file has been closed. Calling :meth:`close` more than once is allowed.
+
+ As of Python 2.5, you can avoid having to call this method explicitly if you use
+ the :keyword:`with` statement. For example, the following code will
+ automatically close *f* when the :keyword:`with` block is exited::
+
+ from __future__ import with_statement # This isn't required in Python 2.6
+
+ with open("hello.txt") as f:
+ for line in f:
+ print line,
+
+ In older versions of Python, you would have needed to do this to get the same
+ effect::
+
+ f = open("hello.txt")
+ try:
+ for line in f:
+ print line,
+ finally:
+ f.close()
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Not all "file-like" types in Python support use as a context manager for the
+ :keyword:`with` statement. If your code is intended to work with any file-like
+ object, you can use the function :func:`contextlib.closing` instead of using
+ the object directly.
+
+
+.. method:: file.flush()
+
+ Flush the internal buffer, like ``stdio``'s :c:func:`fflush`. This may be a
+ no-op on some file-like objects.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ :meth:`flush` does not necessarily write the file's data to disk. Use
+ :meth:`flush` followed by :func:`os.fsync` to ensure this behavior.
+
+
+.. method:: file.fileno()
+
+ .. index::
+ pair: file; descriptor
+ module: fcntl
+
+ Return the integer "file descriptor" that is used by the underlying
+ implementation to request I/O operations from the operating system. This can be
+ useful for other, lower level interfaces that use file descriptors, such as the
+ :mod:`fcntl` module or :func:`os.read` and friends.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ File-like objects which do not have a real file descriptor should *not* provide
+ this method!
+
+
+.. method:: file.isatty()
+
+ Return ``True`` if the file is connected to a tty(-like) device, else ``False``.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ If a file-like object is not associated with a real file, this method should
+ *not* be implemented.
+
+
+.. method:: file.next()
+
+ A file object is its own iterator, for example ``iter(f)`` returns *f* (unless
+ *f* is closed). When a file is used as an iterator, typically in a
+ :keyword:`for` loop (for example, ``for line in f: print line.strip()``), the
+ :meth:`~file.next` method is called repeatedly. This method returns the next input
+ line, or raises :exc:`StopIteration` when EOF is hit when the file is open for
+ reading (behavior is undefined when the file is open for writing). In order to
+ make a :keyword:`for` loop the most efficient way of looping over the lines of a
+ file (a very common operation), the :meth:`~file.next` method uses a hidden read-ahead
+ buffer. As a consequence of using a read-ahead buffer, combining :meth:`~file.next`
+ with other file methods (like :meth:`~file.readline`) does not work right. However,
+ using :meth:`seek` to reposition the file to an absolute position will flush the
+ read-ahead buffer.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. method:: file.read([size])
+
+ Read at most *size* bytes from the file (less if the read hits EOF before
+ obtaining *size* bytes). If the *size* argument is negative or omitted, read
+ all data until EOF is reached. The bytes are returned as a string object. An
+ empty string is returned when EOF is encountered immediately. (For certain
+ files, like ttys, it makes sense to continue reading after an EOF is hit.) Note
+ that this method may call the underlying C function :c:func:`fread` more than
+ once in an effort to acquire as close to *size* bytes as possible. Also note
+ that when in non-blocking mode, less data than was requested may be
+ returned, even if no *size* parameter was given.
+
+ .. note::
+ This function is simply a wrapper for the underlying
+ :c:func:`fread` C function, and will behave the same in corner cases,
+ such as whether the EOF value is cached.
+
+
+.. method:: file.readline([size])
+
+ Read one entire line from the file. A trailing newline character is kept in
+ the string (but may be absent when a file ends with an incomplete line). [6]_
+ If the *size* argument is present and non-negative, it is a maximum byte
+ count (including the trailing newline) and an incomplete line may be
+ returned. When *size* is not 0, an empty string is returned *only* when EOF
+ is encountered immediately.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Unlike ``stdio``'s :c:func:`fgets`, the returned string contains null characters
+ (``'\0'``) if they occurred in the input.
+
+
+.. method:: file.readlines([sizehint])
+
+ Read until EOF using :meth:`~file.readline` and return a list containing the lines
+ thus read. If the optional *sizehint* argument is present, instead of
+ reading up to EOF, whole lines totalling approximately *sizehint* bytes
+ (possibly after rounding up to an internal buffer size) are read. Objects
+ implementing a file-like interface may choose to ignore *sizehint* if it
+ cannot be implemented, or cannot be implemented efficiently.
+
+
+.. method:: file.xreadlines()
+
+ This method returns the same thing as ``iter(f)``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.1
+
+ .. deprecated:: 2.3
+ Use ``for line in file`` instead.
+
+
+.. method:: file.seek(offset[, whence])
+
+ Set the file's current position, like ``stdio``'s :c:func:`fseek`. The *whence*
+ argument is optional and defaults to ``os.SEEK_SET`` or ``0`` (absolute file
+ positioning); other values are ``os.SEEK_CUR`` or ``1`` (seek relative to the
+ current position) and ``os.SEEK_END`` or ``2`` (seek relative to the file's
+ end). There is no return value.
+
+ For example, ``f.seek(2, os.SEEK_CUR)`` advances the position by two and
+ ``f.seek(-3, os.SEEK_END)`` sets the position to the third to last.
+
+ Note that if the file is opened for appending
+ (mode ``'a'`` or ``'a+'``), any :meth:`seek` operations will be undone at the
+ next write. If the file is only opened for writing in append mode (mode
+ ``'a'``), this method is essentially a no-op, but it remains useful for files
+ opened in append mode with reading enabled (mode ``'a+'``). If the file is
+ opened in text mode (without ``'b'``), only offsets returned by :meth:`tell` are
+ legal. Use of other offsets causes undefined behavior.
+
+ Note that not all file objects are seekable.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ Passing float values as offset has been deprecated.
+
+
+.. method:: file.tell()
+
+ Return the file's current position, like ``stdio``'s :c:func:`ftell`.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ On Windows, :meth:`tell` can return illegal values (after an :c:func:`fgets`)
+ when reading files with Unix-style line-endings. Use binary mode (``'rb'``) to
+ circumvent this problem.
+
+
+.. method:: file.truncate([size])
+
+ Truncate the file's size. If the optional *size* argument is present, the file
+ is truncated to (at most) that size. The size defaults to the current position.
+ The current file position is not changed. Note that if a specified size exceeds
+ the file's current size, the result is platform-dependent: possibilities
+ include that the file may remain unchanged, increase to the specified size as if
+ zero-filled, or increase to the specified size with undefined new content.
+ Availability: Windows, many Unix variants.
+
+
+.. method:: file.write(str)
+
+ Write a string to the file. There is no return value. Due to buffering, the
+ string may not actually show up in the file until the :meth:`flush` or
+ :meth:`close` method is called.
+
+
+.. method:: file.writelines(sequence)
+
+ Write a sequence of strings to the file. The sequence can be any iterable
+ object producing strings, typically a list of strings. There is no return value.
+ (The name is intended to match :meth:`readlines`; :meth:`writelines` does not
+ add line separators.)
+
+Files support the iterator protocol. Each iteration returns the same result as
+:meth:`~file.readline`, and iteration ends when the :meth:`~file.readline` method returns
+an empty string.
+
+File objects also offer a number of other interesting attributes. These are not
+required for file-like objects, but should be implemented if they make sense for
+the particular object.
+
+
+.. attribute:: file.closed
+
+ bool indicating the current state of the file object. This is a read-only
+ attribute; the :meth:`close` method changes the value. It may not be available
+ on all file-like objects.
+
+
+.. attribute:: file.encoding
+
+ The encoding that this file uses. When Unicode strings are written to a file,
+ they will be converted to byte strings using this encoding. In addition, when
+ the file is connected to a terminal, the attribute gives the encoding that the
+ terminal is likely to use (that information might be incorrect if the user has
+ misconfigured the terminal). The attribute is read-only and may not be present
+ on all file-like objects. It may also be ``None``, in which case the file uses
+ the system default encoding for converting Unicode strings.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. attribute:: file.errors
+
+ The Unicode error handler used along with the encoding.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. attribute:: file.mode
+
+ The I/O mode for the file. If the file was created using the :func:`open`
+ built-in function, this will be the value of the *mode* parameter. This is a
+ read-only attribute and may not be present on all file-like objects.
+
+
+.. attribute:: file.name
+
+ If the file object was created using :func:`open`, the name of the file.
+ Otherwise, some string that indicates the source of the file object, of the
+ form ``<...>``. This is a read-only attribute and may not be present on all
+ file-like objects.
+
+ .. index::
+ single: universal newlines; file.newlines attribute
+
+
+.. attribute:: file.newlines
+
+ If Python was built with :term:`universal newlines` enabled (the default) this
+ read-only attribute exists, and for files opened in universal newline read
+ mode it keeps track of the types of newlines encountered while reading the
+ file. The values it can take are ``'\r'``, ``'\n'``, ``'\r\n'``, ``None``
+ (unknown, no newlines read yet) or a tuple containing all the newline types
+ seen, to indicate that multiple newline conventions were encountered. For
+ files not opened in universal newlines read mode the value of this attribute
+ will be ``None``.
+
+
+.. attribute:: file.softspace
+
+ Boolean that indicates whether a space character needs to be printed before
+ another value when using the :keyword:`print` statement. Classes that are trying
+ to simulate a file object should also have a writable :attr:`softspace`
+ attribute, which should be initialized to zero. This will be automatic for most
+ classes implemented in Python (care may be needed for objects that override
+ attribute access); types implemented in C will have to provide a writable
+ :attr:`softspace` attribute.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ This attribute is not used to control the :keyword:`print` statement, but to
+ allow the implementation of :keyword:`print` to keep track of its internal
+ state.
+
+
+.. _typememoryview:
+
+memoryview type
+===============
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+:class:`memoryview` objects allow Python code to access the internal data
+of an object that supports the buffer protocol without copying. Memory
+is generally interpreted as simple bytes.
+
+.. class:: memoryview(obj)
+
+ Create a :class:`memoryview` that references *obj*. *obj* must support the
+ buffer protocol. Built-in objects that support the buffer protocol include
+ :class:`str` and :class:`bytearray` (but not :class:`unicode`).
+
+ A :class:`memoryview` has the notion of an *element*, which is the
+ atomic memory unit handled by the originating object *obj*. For many
+ simple types such as :class:`str` and :class:`bytearray`, an element
+ is a single byte, but other third-party types may expose larger elements.
+
+ ``len(view)`` returns the total number of elements in the memoryview,
+ *view*. The :class:`~memoryview.itemsize` attribute will give you the
+ number of bytes in a single element.
+
+ A :class:`memoryview` supports slicing to expose its data. Taking a single
+ index will return a single element as a :class:`str` object. Full
+ slicing will result in a subview::
+
+ >>> v = memoryview('abcefg')
+ >>> v[1]
+ 'b'
+ >>> v[-1]
+ 'g'
+ >>> v[1:4]
+ <memory at 0x77ab28>
+ >>> v[1:4].tobytes()
+ 'bce'
+
+ If the object the memoryview is over supports changing its data, the
+ memoryview supports slice assignment::
+
+ >>> data = bytearray('abcefg')
+ >>> v = memoryview(data)
+ >>> v.readonly
+ False
+ >>> v[0] = 'z'
+ >>> data
+ bytearray(b'zbcefg')
+ >>> v[1:4] = '123'
+ >>> data
+ bytearray(b'z123fg')
+ >>> v[2] = 'spam'
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
+ ValueError: cannot modify size of memoryview object
+
+ Notice how the size of the memoryview object cannot be changed.
+
+ :class:`memoryview` has two methods:
+
+ .. method:: tobytes()
+
+ Return the data in the buffer as a bytestring (an object of class
+ :class:`str`). ::
+
+ >>> m = memoryview("abc")
+ >>> m.tobytes()
+ 'abc'
+
+ .. method:: tolist()
+
+ Return the data in the buffer as a list of integers. ::
+
+ >>> memoryview("abc").tolist()
+ [97, 98, 99]
+
+ There are also several readonly attributes available:
+
+ .. attribute:: format
+
+ A string containing the format (in :mod:`struct` module style) for each
+ element in the view. This defaults to ``'B'``, a simple bytestring.
+
+ .. attribute:: itemsize
+
+ The size in bytes of each element of the memoryview.
+
+ .. attribute:: shape
+
+ A tuple of integers the length of :attr:`ndim` giving the shape of the
+ memory as a N-dimensional array.
+
+ .. attribute:: ndim
+
+ An integer indicating how many dimensions of a multi-dimensional array the
+ memory represents.
+
+ .. attribute:: strides
+
+ A tuple of integers the length of :attr:`ndim` giving the size in bytes to
+ access each element for each dimension of the array.
+
+ .. attribute:: readonly
+
+ A bool indicating whether the memory is read only.
+
+ .. memoryview.suboffsets isn't documented because it only seems useful for C

+
+Context Manager Types
+=====================
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+.. index::
+ single: context manager
+ single: context management protocol
+ single: protocol; context management
+
+Python's :keyword:`with` statement supports the concept of a runtime context
+defined by a context manager. This is implemented using two separate methods
+that allow user-defined classes to define a runtime context that is entered
+before the statement body is executed and exited when the statement ends.
+
+The :dfn:`context management protocol` consists of a pair of methods that need
+to be provided for a context manager object to define a runtime context:
+
+
+.. method:: contextmanager.__enter__()
+
+ Enter the runtime context and return either this object or another object
+ related to the runtime context. The value returned by this method is bound to
+ the identifier in the :keyword:`as` clause of :keyword:`with` statements using
+ this context manager.
+
+ An example of a context manager that returns itself is a file object. File
+ objects return themselves from __enter__() to allow :func:`open` to be used as
+ the context expression in a :keyword:`with` statement.
+
+ An example of a context manager that returns a related object is the one
+ returned by :func:`decimal.localcontext`. These managers set the active
+ decimal context to a copy of the original decimal context and then return the
+ copy. This allows changes to be made to the current decimal context in the body
+ of the :keyword:`with` statement without affecting code outside the
+ :keyword:`with` statement.
+
+
+.. method:: contextmanager.__exit__(exc_type, exc_val, exc_tb)
+
+ Exit the runtime context and return a Boolean flag indicating if any exception
+ that occurred should be suppressed. If an exception occurred while executing the
+ body of the :keyword:`with` statement, the arguments contain the exception type,
+ value and traceback information. Otherwise, all three arguments are ``None``.
+
+ Returning a true value from this method will cause the :keyword:`with` statement
+ to suppress the exception and continue execution with the statement immediately
+ following the :keyword:`with` statement. Otherwise the exception continues
+ propagating after this method has finished executing. Exceptions that occur
+ during execution of this method will replace any exception that occurred in the
+ body of the :keyword:`with` statement.
+
+ The exception passed in should never be reraised explicitly - instead, this
+ method should return a false value to indicate that the method completed
+ successfully and does not want to suppress the raised exception. This allows
+ context management code (such as ``contextlib.nested``) to easily detect whether
+ or not an :meth:`__exit__` method has actually failed.
+
+Python defines several context managers to support easy thread synchronisation,
+prompt closure of files or other objects, and simpler manipulation of the active
+decimal arithmetic context. The specific types are not treated specially beyond
+their implementation of the context management protocol. See the
+:mod:`contextlib` module for some examples.
+
+Python's :term:`generator`\s and the ``contextlib.contextmanager`` :term:`decorator`
+provide a convenient way to implement these protocols. If a generator function is
+decorated with the ``contextlib.contextmanager`` decorator, it will return a
+context manager implementing the necessary :meth:`__enter__` and
+:meth:`__exit__` methods, rather than the iterator produced by an undecorated
+generator function.
+
+Note that there is no specific slot for any of these methods in the type
+structure for Python objects in the Python/C API. Extension types wanting to
+define these methods must provide them as a normal Python accessible method.
+Compared to the overhead of setting up the runtime context, the overhead of a
+single class dictionary lookup is negligible.
+
+
+.. _typesother:
+
+Other Built-in Types
+====================
+
+The interpreter supports several other kinds of objects. Most of these support
+only one or two operations.
+
+
+.. _typesmodules:
+
+Modules
+-------
+
+The only special operation on a module is attribute access: ``m.name``, where
+*m* is a module and *name* accesses a name defined in *m*'s symbol table.
+Module attributes can be assigned to. (Note that the :keyword:`import`
+statement is not, strictly speaking, an operation on a module object; ``import
+foo`` does not require a module object named *foo* to exist, rather it requires
+an (external) *definition* for a module named *foo* somewhere.)
+
+A special attribute of every module is :attr:`__dict__`. This is the dictionary
+containing the module's symbol table. Modifying this dictionary will actually
+change the module's symbol table, but direct assignment to the :attr:`__dict__`
+attribute is not possible (you can write ``m.__dict__['a'] = 1``, which defines
+``m.a`` to be ``1``, but you can't write ``m.__dict__ = {}``). Modifying
+:attr:`__dict__` directly is not recommended.
+
+Modules built into the interpreter are written like this: ``<module 'sys'
+(built-in)>``. If loaded from a file, they are written as ``<module 'os' from
+'/usr/local/lib/pythonX.Y/os.pyc'>``.
+
+
+.. _typesobjects:
+
+Classes and Class Instances
+---------------------------
+
+See :ref:`objects` and :ref:`class` for these.
+
+
+.. _typesfunctions:
+
+Functions
+---------
+
+Function objects are created by function definitions. The only operation on a
+function object is to call it: ``func(argument-list)``.
+
+There are really two flavors of function objects: built-in functions and
+user-defined functions. Both support the same operation (to call the function),
+but the implementation is different, hence the different object types.
+
+See :ref:`function` for more information.
+
+
+.. _typesmethods:
+
+Methods
+-------
+
+.. index:: object: method
+
+Methods are functions that are called using the attribute notation. There are
+two flavors: built-in methods (such as :meth:`append` on lists) and class
+instance methods. Built-in methods are described with the types that support
+them.
+
+The implementation adds two special read-only attributes to class instance
+methods: ``m.im_self`` is the object on which the method operates, and
+``m.im_func`` is the function implementing the method. Calling ``m(arg-1,
+arg-2, ..., arg-n)`` is completely equivalent to calling ``m.im_func(m.im_self,
+arg-1, arg-2, ..., arg-n)``.
+
+Class instance methods are either *bound* or *unbound*, referring to whether the
+method was accessed through an instance or a class, respectively. When a method
+is unbound, its ``im_self`` attribute will be ``None`` and if called, an
+explicit ``self`` object must be passed as the first argument. In this case,
+``self`` must be an instance of the unbound method's class (or a subclass of
+that class), otherwise a :exc:`TypeError` is raised.
+
+Like function objects, methods objects support getting arbitrary attributes.
+However, since method attributes are actually stored on the underlying function
+object (``meth.im_func``), setting method attributes on either bound or unbound
+methods is disallowed. Attempting to set an attribute on a method results in
+an :exc:`AttributeError` being raised. In order to set a method attribute, you
+need to explicitly set it on the underlying function object::
+
+ >>> class C:
+ ... def method(self):
+ ... pass
+ ...
+ >>> c = C()
+ >>> c.method.whoami = 'my name is method' # can't set on the method
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
+ AttributeError: 'instancemethod' object has no attribute 'whoami'
+ >>> c.method.im_func.whoami = 'my name is method'
+ >>> c.method.whoami
+ 'my name is method'
+
+
+See :ref:`types` for more information.
+
+
+.. _bltin-code-objects:
+
+Code Objects
+------------
+
+.. index:: object: code
+
+.. index::
+ builtin: compile
+ single: func_code (function object attribute)
+
+Code objects are used by the implementation to represent "pseudo-compiled"
+executable Python code such as a function body. They differ from function
+objects because they don't contain a reference to their global execution
+environment. Code objects are returned by the built-in :func:`compile` function
+and can be extracted from function objects through their :attr:`func_code`
+attribute. See also the :mod:`code` module.
+
+.. index::
+ statement: exec
+ builtin: eval
+
+A code object can be executed or evaluated by passing it (instead of a source
+string) to the :keyword:`exec` statement or the built-in :func:`eval` function.
+
+See :ref:`types` for more information.
+
+
+.. _bltin-type-objects:
+
+Type Objects
+------------
+
+.. index::
+ builtin: type
+ module: types
+
+Type objects represent the various object types. An object's type is accessed
+by the built-in function :func:`type`. There are no special operations on
+types. The standard module :mod:`types` defines names for all standard built-in
+types.
+
+Types are written like this: ``<type 'int'>``.
+
+
+.. _bltin-null-object:
+
+The Null Object
+---------------
+
+This object is returned by functions that don't explicitly return a value. It
+supports no special operations. There is exactly one null object, named
+``None`` (a built-in name).
+
+It is written as ``None``.
+
+
+.. _bltin-ellipsis-object:
+
+The Ellipsis Object
+-------------------
+
+This object is used by extended slice notation (see :ref:`slicings`). It
+supports no special operations. There is exactly one ellipsis object, named
+:const:`Ellipsis` (a built-in name).
+
+It is written as ``Ellipsis``. When in a subscript, it can also be written as
+``...``, for example ``seq[...]``.
+
+
+The NotImplemented Object
+-------------------------
+
+This object is returned from comparisons and binary operations when they are
+asked to operate on types they don't support. See :ref:`comparisons` for more
+information.
+
+It is written as ``NotImplemented``.
+
+
+Boolean Values
+--------------
+
+Boolean values are the two constant objects ``False`` and ``True``. They are
+used to represent truth values (although other values can also be considered
+false or true). In numeric contexts (for example when used as the argument to
+an arithmetic operator), they behave like the integers 0 and 1, respectively.
+The built-in function :func:`bool` can be used to convert any value to a
+Boolean, if the value can be interpreted as a truth value (see section
+:ref:`truth` above).
+
+.. index::
+ single: False
+ single: True
+ pair: Boolean; values
+
+They are written as ``False`` and ``True``, respectively.
+
+
+.. _typesinternal:
+
+Internal Objects
+----------------
+
+See :ref:`types` for this information. It describes stack frame objects,
+traceback objects, and slice objects.
+
+
+.. _specialattrs:
+
+Special Attributes
+==================
+
+The implementation adds a few special read-only attributes to several object
+types, where they are relevant. Some of these are not reported by the
+:func:`dir` built-in function.
+
+
+.. attribute:: object.__dict__
+
+ A dictionary or other mapping object used to store an object's (writable)
+ attributes.
+
+
+.. attribute:: object.__methods__
+
+ .. deprecated:: 2.2
+ Use the built-in function :func:`dir` to get a list of an object's attributes.
+ This attribute is no longer available.
+
+
+.. attribute:: object.__members__
+
+ .. deprecated:: 2.2
+ Use the built-in function :func:`dir` to get a list of an object's attributes.
+ This attribute is no longer available.
+
+
+.. attribute:: instance.__class__
+
+ The class to which a class instance belongs.
+
+
+.. attribute:: class.__bases__
+
+ The tuple of base classes of a class object.
+
+
+.. attribute:: class.__name__
+
+ The name of the class or type.
+
+
+The following attributes are only supported by :term:`new-style class`\ es.
+
+.. attribute:: class.__mro__
+
+ This attribute is a tuple of classes that are considered when looking for
+ base classes during method resolution.
+
+
+.. method:: class.mro()
+
+ This method can be overridden by a metaclass to customize the method
+ resolution order for its instances. It is called at class instantiation, and
+ its result is stored in :attr:`__mro__`.
+
+
+.. method:: class.__subclasses__
+
+ Each new-style class keeps a list of weak references to its immediate
+ subclasses. This method returns a list of all those references still alive.
+ Example::
+
+ >>> int.__subclasses__()
+ [<type 'bool'>]
+
+
+.. rubric:: Footnotes
+
+.. [1] Additional information on these special methods may be found in the Python
+ Reference Manual (:ref:`customization`).
+
+.. [2] As a consequence, the list ``[1, 2]`` is considered equal to ``[1.0, 2.0]``, and
+ similarly for tuples.
+
+.. [3] They must have since the parser can't tell the type of the operands.
+
+.. [4] Cased characters are those with general category property being one of
+ "Lu" (Letter, uppercase), "Ll" (Letter, lowercase), or "Lt" (Letter, titlecase).
+
+.. [5] To format only a tuple you should therefore provide a singleton tuple whose only
+ element is the tuple to be formatted.
+
+.. [6] The advantage of leaving the newline on is that returning an empty string is
+ then an unambiguous EOF indication. It is also possible (in cases where it
+ might matter, for example, if you want to make an exact copy of a file while
+ scanning its lines) to tell whether the last line of a file ended in a newline
+ or not (yes this happens!).

+:mod:`string` --- Common string operations
+==========================================
+
+.. module:: string
+ :synopsis: Common string operations.
+
+
+.. index:: module: re
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/string.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`string` module contains a number of useful constants and
+classes, as well as some deprecated legacy functions that are also
+available as methods on strings. In addition, Python's built-in string
+classes support the sequence type methods described in the
+:ref:`typesseq` section, and also the string-specific methods described
+in the :ref:`string-methods` section. To output formatted strings use
+template strings or the ``%`` operator described in the
+:ref:`string-formatting` section. Also, see the :mod:`re` module for
+string functions based on regular expressions.
+
+String constants
+----------------
+
+The constants defined in this module are:
+
+
+.. data:: ascii_letters
+
+ The concatenation of the :const:`ascii_lowercase` and :const:`ascii_uppercase`
+ constants described below. This value is not locale-dependent.
+
+
+.. data:: ascii_lowercase
+
+ The lowercase letters ``'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'``. This value is not
+ locale-dependent and will not change.
+
+
+.. data:: ascii_uppercase
+
+ The uppercase letters ``'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ'``. This value is not
+ locale-dependent and will not change.
+
+
+.. data:: digits
+
+ The string ``'0123456789'``.
+
+
+.. data:: hexdigits
+
+ The string ``'0123456789abcdefABCDEF'``.
+
+
+.. data:: letters
+
+ The concatenation of the strings :const:`lowercase` and :const:`uppercase`
+ described below. The specific value is locale-dependent, and will be updated
+ when :func:`locale.setlocale` is called.
+
+
+.. data:: lowercase
+
+ A string containing all the characters that are considered lowercase letters.
+ On most systems this is the string ``'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'``. The
+ specific value is locale-dependent, and will be updated when
+ :func:`locale.setlocale` is called.
+
+
+.. data:: octdigits
+
+ The string ``'01234567'``.
+
+
+.. data:: punctuation
+
+ String of ASCII characters which are considered punctuation characters in the
+ ``C`` locale.
+
+
+.. data:: printable
+
+ String of characters which are considered printable. This is a combination of
+ :const:`digits`, :const:`letters`, :const:`punctuation`, and
+ :const:`whitespace`.
+
+
+.. data:: uppercase
+
+ A string containing all the characters that are considered uppercase letters.
+ On most systems this is the string ``'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ'``. The
+ specific value is locale-dependent, and will be updated when
+ :func:`locale.setlocale` is called.
+
+
+.. data:: whitespace
+
+ A string containing all characters that are considered whitespace. On most
+ systems this includes the characters space, tab, linefeed, return, formfeed, and
+ vertical tab.
+
+
+.. _new-string-formatting:
+
+String Formatting
+-----------------
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+The built-in str and unicode classes provide the ability
+to do complex variable substitutions and value formatting via the
+:meth:`str.format` method described in :pep:`3101`. The :class:`Formatter`
+class in the :mod:`string` module allows you to create and customize your own
+string formatting behaviors using the same implementation as the built-in
+:meth:`format` method.
+
+.. class:: Formatter
+
+ The :class:`Formatter` class has the following public methods:
+
+ .. method:: format(format_string, *args, **kwargs)
+
+ :meth:`format` is the primary API method. It takes a format string and
+ an arbitrary set of positional and keyword arguments.
+ :meth:`format` is just a wrapper that calls :meth:`vformat`.
+
+ .. method:: vformat(format_string, args, kwargs)
+
+ This function does the actual work of formatting. It is exposed as a
+ separate function for cases where you want to pass in a predefined
+ dictionary of arguments, rather than unpacking and repacking the
+ dictionary as individual arguments using the ``*args`` and ``**kwargs``
+ syntax. :meth:`vformat` does the work of breaking up the format string
+ into character data and replacement fields. It calls the various
+ methods described below.
+
+ In addition, the :class:`Formatter` defines a number of methods that are
+ intended to be replaced by subclasses:
+
+ .. method:: parse(format_string)
+
+ Loop over the format_string and return an iterable of tuples
+ (*literal_text*, *field_name*, *format_spec*, *conversion*). This is used
+ by :meth:`vformat` to break the string into either literal text, or
+ replacement fields.
+
+ The values in the tuple conceptually represent a span of literal text
+ followed by a single replacement field. If there is no literal text
+ (which can happen if two replacement fields occur consecutively), then
+ *literal_text* will be a zero-length string. If there is no replacement
+ field, then the values of *field_name*, *format_spec* and *conversion*
+ will be ``None``.
+
+ .. method:: get_field(field_name, args, kwargs)
+
+ Given *field_name* as returned by :meth:`parse` (see above), convert it to
+ an object to be formatted. Returns a tuple (obj, used_key). The default
+ version takes strings of the form defined in :pep:`3101`, such as
+ "0[name]" or "label.title". *args* and *kwargs* are as passed in to
+ :meth:`vformat`. The return value *used_key* has the same meaning as the
+ *key* parameter to :meth:`get_value`.
+
+ .. method:: get_value(key, args, kwargs)
+
+ Retrieve a given field value. The *key* argument will be either an
+ integer or a string. If it is an integer, it represents the index of the
+ positional argument in *args*; if it is a string, then it represents a
+ named argument in *kwargs*.
+
+ The *args* parameter is set to the list of positional arguments to
+ :meth:`vformat`, and the *kwargs* parameter is set to the dictionary of
+ keyword arguments.
+
+ For compound field names, these functions are only called for the first
+ component of the field name; Subsequent components are handled through
+ normal attribute and indexing operations.
+
+ So for example, the field expression '0.name' would cause
+ :meth:`get_value` to be called with a *key* argument of 0. The ``name``
+ attribute will be looked up after :meth:`get_value` returns by calling the
+ built-in :func:`getattr` function.
+
+ If the index or keyword refers to an item that does not exist, then an
+ :exc:`IndexError` or :exc:`KeyError` should be raised.
+
+ .. method:: check_unused_args(used_args, args, kwargs)
+
+ Implement checking for unused arguments if desired. The arguments to this
+ function is the set of all argument keys that were actually referred to in
+ the format string (integers for positional arguments, and strings for
+ named arguments), and a reference to the *args* and *kwargs* that was
+ passed to vformat. The set of unused args can be calculated from these
+ parameters. :meth:`check_unused_args` is assumed to raise an exception if
+ the check fails.
+
+ .. method:: format_field(value, format_spec)
+
+ :meth:`format_field` simply calls the global :func:`format` built-in. The
+ method is provided so that subclasses can override it.
+
+ .. method:: convert_field(value, conversion)
+
+ Converts the value (returned by :meth:`get_field`) given a conversion type
+ (as in the tuple returned by the :meth:`parse` method). The default
+ version understands 's' (str), 'r' (repr) and 'a' (ascii) conversion
+ types.
+
+
+.. _formatstrings:
+
+Format String Syntax
+--------------------
+
+The :meth:`str.format` method and the :class:`Formatter` class share the same
+syntax for format strings (although in the case of :class:`Formatter`,
+subclasses can define their own format string syntax).
+
+Format strings contain "replacement fields" surrounded by curly braces ``{}``.
+Anything that is not contained in braces is considered literal text, which is
+copied unchanged to the output. If you need to include a brace character in the
+literal text, it can be escaped by doubling: ``{{`` and ``}}``.
+
+The grammar for a replacement field is as follows:
+
+ .. productionlist:: sf
+ replacement_field: "{" [`field_name`] ["!" `conversion`] [":" `format_spec`] "}"
+ field_name: arg_name ("." `attribute_name` | "[" `element_index` "]")*
+ arg_name: [`identifier` | `integer`]
+ attribute_name: `identifier`
+ element_index: `integer` | `index_string`
+ index_string: <any source character except "]"> +
+ conversion: "r" | "s"
+ format_spec: <described in the next section>
+
+In less formal terms, the replacement field can start with a *field_name* that specifies
+the object whose value is to be formatted and inserted
+into the output instead of the replacement field.
+The *field_name* is optionally followed by a *conversion* field, which is
+preceded by an exclamation point ``'!'``, and a *format_spec*, which is preceded
+by a colon ``':'``. These specify a non-default format for the replacement value.
+
+See also the :ref:`formatspec` section.
+
+The *field_name* itself begins with an *arg_name* that is either a number or a
+keyword. If it's a number, it refers to a positional argument, and if it's a keyword,
+it refers to a named keyword argument. If the numerical arg_names in a format string
+are 0, 1, 2, ... in sequence, they can all be omitted (not just some)
+and the numbers 0, 1, 2, ... will be automatically inserted in that order.
+Because *arg_name* is not quote-delimited, it is not possible to specify arbitrary
+dictionary keys (e.g., the strings ``'10'`` or ``':-]'``) within a format string.
+The *arg_name* can be followed by any number of index or
+attribute expressions. An expression of the form ``'.name'`` selects the named
+attribute using :func:`getattr`, while an expression of the form ``'[index]'``
+does an index lookup using :func:`__getitem__`.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ The positional argument specifiers can be omitted, so ``'{} {}'`` is
+ equivalent to ``'{0} {1}'``.
+
+Some simple format string examples::
+
+ "First, thou shalt count to {0}" # References first positional argument
+ "Bring me a {}" # Implicitly references the first positional argument
+ "From {} to {}" # Same as "From {0} to {1}"
+ "My quest is {name}" # References keyword argument 'name'
+ "Weight in tons {0.weight}" # 'weight' attribute of first positional arg
+ "Units destroyed: {players[0]}" # First element of keyword argument 'players'.
+
+The *conversion* field causes a type coercion before formatting. Normally, the
+job of formatting a value is done by the :meth:`__format__` method of the value
+itself. However, in some cases it is desirable to force a type to be formatted
+as a string, overriding its own definition of formatting. By converting the
+value to a string before calling :meth:`__format__`, the normal formatting logic
+is bypassed.
+
+Two conversion flags are currently supported: ``'!s'`` which calls :func:`str`
+on the value, and ``'!r'`` which calls :func:`repr`.
+
+Some examples::
+
+ "Harold's a clever {0!s}" # Calls str() on the argument first
+ "Bring out the holy {name!r}" # Calls repr() on the argument first
+
+The *format_spec* field contains a specification of how the value should be
+presented, including such details as field width, alignment, padding, decimal
+precision and so on. Each value type can define its own "formatting
+mini-language" or interpretation of the *format_spec*.
+
+Most built-in types support a common formatting mini-language, which is
+described in the next section.
+
+A *format_spec* field can also include nested replacement fields within it.
+These nested replacement fields can contain only a field name; conversion flags
+and format specifications are not allowed. The replacement fields within the
+format_spec are substituted before the *format_spec* string is interpreted.
+This allows the formatting of a value to be dynamically specified.
+
+See the :ref:`formatexamples` section for some examples.
+
+
+.. _formatspec:
+
+Format Specification Mini-Language
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+"Format specifications" are used within replacement fields contained within a
+format string to define how individual values are presented (see
+:ref:`formatstrings`). They can also be passed directly to the built-in
+:func:`format` function. Each formattable type may define how the format
+specification is to be interpreted.
+
+Most built-in types implement the following options for format specifications,
+although some of the formatting options are only supported by the numeric types.
+
+A general convention is that an empty format string (``""``) produces
+the same result as if you had called :func:`str` on the value. A
+non-empty format string typically modifies the result.
+
+The general form of a *standard format specifier* is:
+
+.. productionlist:: sf
+ format_spec: [[`fill`]`align`][`sign`][#][0][`width`][,][.`precision`][`type`]
+ fill: <a character other than '{' or '}'>
+ align: "<" | ">" | "=" | "^"
+ sign: "+" | "-" | " "
+ width: `integer`
+ precision: `integer`
+ type: "b" | "c" | "d" | "e" | "E" | "f" | "F" | "g" | "G" | "n" | "o" | "s" | "x" | "X" | "%"
+
+The *fill* character can be any character other than '{' or '}'. The presence
+of a fill character is signaled by the character following it, which must be
+one of the alignment options. If the second character of *format_spec* is not
+a valid alignment option, then it is assumed that both the fill character and
+the alignment option are absent.
+
+The meaning of the various alignment options is as follows:
+
+ +---------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | Option | Meaning |
+ +=========+==========================================================+
+ | ``'<'`` | Forces the field to be left-aligned within the available |
+ | | space (this is the default for most objects). |
+ +---------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'>'`` | Forces the field to be right-aligned within the |
+ | | available space (this is the default for numbers). |
+ +---------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'='`` | Forces the padding to be placed after the sign (if any) |
+ | | but before the digits. This is used for printing fields |
+ | | in the form '+000000120'. This alignment option is only |
+ | | valid for numeric types. |
+ +---------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'^'`` | Forces the field to be centered within the available |
+ | | space. |
+ +---------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+
+Note that unless a minimum field width is defined, the field width will always
+be the same size as the data to fill it, so that the alignment option has no
+meaning in this case.
+
+The *sign* option is only valid for number types, and can be one of the
+following:
+
+ +---------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | Option | Meaning |
+ +=========+==========================================================+
+ | ``'+'`` | indicates that a sign should be used for both |
+ | | positive as well as negative numbers. |
+ +---------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'-'`` | indicates that a sign should be used only for negative |
+ | | numbers (this is the default behavior). |
+ +---------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | space | indicates that a leading space should be used on |
+ | | positive numbers, and a minus sign on negative numbers. |
+ +---------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+
+The ``'#'`` option is only valid for integers, and only for binary, octal, or
+hexadecimal output. If present, it specifies that the output will be prefixed
+by ``'0b'``, ``'0o'``, or ``'0x'``, respectively.
+
+The ``','`` option signals the use of a comma for a thousands separator.
+For a locale aware separator, use the ``'n'`` integer presentation type
+instead.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ Added the ``','`` option (see also :pep:`378`).
+
+*width* is a decimal integer defining the minimum field width. If not
+specified, then the field width will be determined by the content.
+
+Preceding the *width* field by a zero (``'0'``) character enables
+sign-aware zero-padding for numeric types. This is equivalent to a *fill*
+character of ``'0'`` with an *alignment* type of ``'='``.
+
+The *precision* is a decimal number indicating how many digits should be
+displayed after the decimal point for a floating point value formatted with
+``'f'`` and ``'F'``, or before and after the decimal point for a floating point
+value formatted with ``'g'`` or ``'G'``. For non-number types the field
+indicates the maximum field size - in other words, how many characters will be
+used from the field content. The *precision* is not allowed for integer values.
+
+Finally, the *type* determines how the data should be presented.
+
+The available string presentation types are:
+
+ +---------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | Type | Meaning |
+ +=========+==========================================================+
+ | ``'s'`` | String format. This is the default type for strings and |
+ | | may be omitted. |
+ +---------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | None | The same as ``'s'``. |
+ +---------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+
+The available integer presentation types are:
+
+ +---------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | Type | Meaning |
+ +=========+==========================================================+
+ | ``'b'`` | Binary format. Outputs the number in base 2. |
+ +---------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'c'`` | Character. Converts the integer to the corresponding |
+ | | unicode character before printing. |
+ +---------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'d'`` | Decimal Integer. Outputs the number in base 10. |
+ +---------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'o'`` | Octal format. Outputs the number in base 8. |
+ +---------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'x'`` | Hex format. Outputs the number in base 16, using lower- |
+ | | case letters for the digits above 9. |
+ +---------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'X'`` | Hex format. Outputs the number in base 16, using upper- |
+ | | case letters for the digits above 9. |
+ +---------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'n'`` | Number. This is the same as ``'d'``, except that it uses |
+ | | the current locale setting to insert the appropriate |
+ | | number separator characters. |
+ +---------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | None | The same as ``'d'``. |
+ +---------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+
+In addition to the above presentation types, integers can be formatted
+with the floating point presentation types listed below (except
+``'n'`` and None). When doing so, :func:`float` is used to convert the
+integer to a floating point number before formatting.
+
+The available presentation types for floating point and decimal values are:
+
+ +---------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | Type | Meaning |
+ +=========+==========================================================+
+ | ``'e'`` | Exponent notation. Prints the number in scientific |
+ | | notation using the letter 'e' to indicate the exponent. |
+ | | The default precision is ``6``. |
+ +---------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'E'`` | Exponent notation. Same as ``'e'`` except it uses an |
+ | | upper case 'E' as the separator character. |
+ +---------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'f'`` | Fixed point. Displays the number as a fixed-point |
+ | | number. The default precision is ``6``. |
+ +---------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'F'`` | Fixed point. Same as ``'f'``. |
+ +---------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'g'`` | General format. For a given precision ``p >= 1``, |
+ | | this rounds the number to ``p`` significant digits and |
+ | | then formats the result in either fixed-point format |
+ | | or in scientific notation, depending on its magnitude. |
+ | | |
+ | | The precise rules are as follows: suppose that the |
+ | | result formatted with presentation type ``'e'`` and |
+ | | precision ``p-1`` would have exponent ``exp``. Then |
+ | | if ``-4 <= exp < p``, the number is formatted |
+ | | with presentation type ``'f'`` and precision |
+ | | ``p-1-exp``. Otherwise, the number is formatted |
+ | | with presentation type ``'e'`` and precision ``p-1``. |
+ | | In both cases insignificant trailing zeros are removed |
+ | | from the significand, and the decimal point is also |
+ | | removed if there are no remaining digits following it. |
+ | | |
+ | | Positive and negative infinity, positive and negative |
+ | | zero, and nans, are formatted as ``inf``, ``-inf``, |
+ | | ``0``, ``-0`` and ``nan`` respectively, regardless of |
+ | | the precision. |
+ | | |
+ | | A precision of ``0`` is treated as equivalent to a |
+ | | precision of ``1``. The default precision is ``6``. |
+ +---------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'G'`` | General format. Same as ``'g'`` except switches to |
+ | | ``'E'`` if the number gets too large. The |
+ | | representations of infinity and NaN are uppercased, too. |
+ +---------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'n'`` | Number. This is the same as ``'g'``, except that it uses |
+ | | the current locale setting to insert the appropriate |
+ | | number separator characters. |
+ +---------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'%'`` | Percentage. Multiplies the number by 100 and displays |
+ | | in fixed (``'f'``) format, followed by a percent sign. |
+ +---------+----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | None | The same as ``'g'``. |
+ +---------+----------------------------------------------------------+

+Format examples
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+This section contains examples of the new format syntax and comparison with
+the old ``%``-formatting.
+
+In most of the cases the syntax is similar to the old ``%``-formatting, with the
+addition of the ``{}`` and with ``:`` used instead of ``%``.
+For example, ``'%03.2f'`` can be translated to ``'{:03.2f}'``.
+
+The new format syntax also supports new and different options, shown in the
+follow examples.
+
+Accessing arguments by position::
+
+ >>> '{0}, {1}, {2}'.format('a', 'b', 'c')
+ 'a, b, c'
+ >>> '{}, {}, {}'.format('a', 'b', 'c') # 2.7+ only
+ 'a, b, c'
+ >>> '{2}, {1}, {0}'.format('a', 'b', 'c')
+ 'c, b, a'
+ >>> '{2}, {1}, {0}'.format(*'abc') # unpacking argument sequence
+ 'c, b, a'
+ >>> '{0}{1}{0}'.format('abra', 'cad') # arguments' indices can be repeated
+ 'abracadabra'
+
+Accessing arguments by name::
+
+ >>> 'Coordinates: {latitude}, {longitude}'.format(latitude='37.24N', longitude='-115.81W')
+ 'Coordinates: 37.24N, -115.81W'
+ >>> coord = {'latitude': '37.24N', 'longitude': '-115.81W'}
+ >>> 'Coordinates: {latitude}, {longitude}'.format(**coord)
+ 'Coordinates: 37.24N, -115.81W'
+
+Accessing arguments' attributes::
+
+ >>> c = 3-5j
+ >>> ('The complex number {0} is formed from the real part {0.real} '
+ ... 'and the imaginary part {0.imag}.').format(c)
+ 'The complex number (3-5j) is formed from the real part 3.0 and the imaginary part -5.0.'
+ >>> class Point(object):
+ ... def __init__(self, x, y):
+ ... self.x, self.y = x, y
+ ... def __str__(self):
+ ... return 'Point({self.x}, {self.y})'.format(self=self)
+ ...
+ >>> str(Point(4, 2))
+ 'Point(4, 2)'
+
+
+Accessing arguments' items::
+
+ >>> coord = (3, 5)
+ >>> 'X: {0[0]}; Y: {0[1]}'.format(coord)
+ 'X: 3; Y: 5'
+
+Replacing ``%s`` and ``%r``::
+
+ >>> "repr() shows quotes: {!r}; str() doesn't: {!s}".format('test1', 'test2')
+ "repr() shows quotes: 'test1'; str() doesn't: test2"
+
+Aligning the text and specifying a width::
+
+ >>> '{:<30}'.format('left aligned')
+ 'left aligned '
+ >>> '{:>30}'.format('right aligned')
+ ' right aligned'
+ >>> '{:^30}'.format('centered')
+ ' centered '
+ >>> '{:*^30}'.format('centered') # use '*' as a fill char
+ '***********centered***********'
+
+Replacing ``%+f``, ``%-f``, and ``% f`` and specifying a sign::
+
+ >>> '{:+f}; {:+f}'.format(3.14, -3.14) # show it always
+ '+3.140000; -3.140000'
+ >>> '{: f}; {: f}'.format(3.14, -3.14) # show a space for positive numbers
+ ' 3.140000; -3.140000'
+ >>> '{:-f}; {:-f}'.format(3.14, -3.14) # show only the minus -- same as '{:f}; {:f}'
+ '3.140000; -3.140000'
+
+Replacing ``%x`` and ``%o`` and converting the value to different bases::
+
+ >>> # format also supports binary numbers
+ >>> "int: {0:d}; hex: {0:x}; oct: {0:o}; bin: {0:b}".format(42)
+ 'int: 42; hex: 2a; oct: 52; bin: 101010'
+ >>> # with 0x, 0o, or 0b as prefix:
+ >>> "int: {0:d}; hex: {0:#x}; oct: {0:#o}; bin: {0:#b}".format(42)
+ 'int: 42; hex: 0x2a; oct: 0o52; bin: 0b101010'
+
+Using the comma as a thousands separator::
+
+ >>> '{:,}'.format(1234567890)
+ '1,234,567,890'
+
+Expressing a percentage::
+
+ >>> points = 19.5
+ >>> total = 22
+ >>> 'Correct answers: {:.2%}'.format(points/total)
+ 'Correct answers: 88.64%'
+
+Using type-specific formatting::
+
+ >>> import datetime
+ >>> d = datetime.datetime(2010, 7, 4, 12, 15, 58)
+ >>> '{:%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S}'.format(d)
+ '2010-07-04 12:15:58'
+
+Nesting arguments and more complex examples::
+
+ >>> for align, text in zip('<^>', ['left', 'center', 'right']):
+ ... '{0:{fill}{align}16}'.format(text, fill=align, align=align)
+ ...
+ 'left<<<<<<<<<<<<'
+ '^^^^^center^^^^^'

+
+
+Template strings
+----------------
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+Templates provide simpler string substitutions as described in :pep:`292`.
+Instead of the normal ``%``\ -based substitutions, Templates support ``$``\
+-based substitutions, using the following rules:
+
+* ``$$`` is an escape; it is replaced with a single ``$``.
+
+* ``$identifier`` names a substitution placeholder matching a mapping key of
+ ``"identifier"``. By default, ``"identifier"`` must spell a Python
+ identifier. The first non-identifier character after the ``$`` character
+ terminates this placeholder specification.
+
+* ``${identifier}`` is equivalent to ``$identifier``. It is required when valid
+ identifier characters follow the placeholder but are not part of the
+ placeholder, such as ``"${noun}ification"``.
+
+Any other appearance of ``$`` in the string will result in a :exc:`ValueError`
+being raised.
+
+The :mod:`string` module provides a :class:`Template` class that implements
+these rules. The methods of :class:`Template` are:
+
+
+.. class:: Template(template)
+
+ The constructor takes a single argument which is the template string.
+
+
+ .. method:: substitute(mapping[, **kws])
+
+ Performs the template substitution, returning a new string. *mapping* is
+ any dictionary-like object with keys that match the placeholders in the
+ template. Alternatively, you can provide keyword arguments, where the
+ keywords are the placeholders. When both *mapping* and *kws* are given
+ and there are duplicates, the placeholders from *kws* take precedence.
+
+
+ .. method:: safe_substitute(mapping[, **kws])
+
+ Like :meth:`substitute`, except that if placeholders are missing from
+ *mapping* and *kws*, instead of raising a :exc:`KeyError` exception, the
+ original placeholder will appear in the resulting string intact. Also,
+ unlike with :meth:`substitute`, any other appearances of the ``$`` will
+ simply return ``$`` instead of raising :exc:`ValueError`.
+
+ While other exceptions may still occur, this method is called "safe"
+ because substitutions always tries to return a usable string instead of
+ raising an exception. In another sense, :meth:`safe_substitute` may be
+ anything other than safe, since it will silently ignore malformed
+ templates containing dangling delimiters, unmatched braces, or
+ placeholders that are not valid Python identifiers.
+
+ :class:`Template` instances also provide one public data attribute:
+
+ .. attribute:: template
+
+ This is the object passed to the constructor's *template* argument. In
+ general, you shouldn't change it, but read-only access is not enforced.
+
+Here is an example of how to use a Template::
+
+ >>> from string import Template
+ >>> s = Template('$who likes $what')
+ >>> s.substitute(who='tim', what='kung pao')
+ 'tim likes kung pao'
+ >>> d = dict(who='tim')
+ >>> Template('Give $who $100').substitute(d)
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ ...
+ ValueError: Invalid placeholder in string: line 1, col 11
+ >>> Template('$who likes $what').substitute(d)
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ ...
+ KeyError: 'what'
+ >>> Template('$who likes $what').safe_substitute(d)
+ 'tim likes $what'
+
+Advanced usage: you can derive subclasses of :class:`Template` to customize the
+placeholder syntax, delimiter character, or the entire regular expression used
+to parse template strings. To do this, you can override these class attributes:
+
+* *delimiter* -- This is the literal string describing a placeholder introducing
+ delimiter. The default value is ``$``. Note that this should *not* be a
+ regular expression, as the implementation will call :meth:`re.escape` on this
+ string as needed.
+
+* *idpattern* -- This is the regular expression describing the pattern for
+ non-braced placeholders (the braces will be added automatically as
+ appropriate). The default value is the regular expression
+ ``[_a-z][_a-z0-9]*``.
+
+Alternatively, you can provide the entire regular expression pattern by
+overriding the class attribute *pattern*. If you do this, the value must be a
+regular expression object with four named capturing groups. The capturing
+groups correspond to the rules given above, along with the invalid placeholder
+rule:
+
+* *escaped* -- This group matches the escape sequence, e.g. ``$$``, in the
+ default pattern.
+
+* *named* -- This group matches the unbraced placeholder name; it should not
+ include the delimiter in capturing group.
+
+* *braced* -- This group matches the brace enclosed placeholder name; it should
+ not include either the delimiter or braces in the capturing group.
+
+* *invalid* -- This group matches any other delimiter pattern (usually a single
+ delimiter), and it should appear last in the regular expression.
+
+
+String functions
+----------------
+
+The following functions are available to operate on string and Unicode objects.
+They are not available as string methods.
+
+
+.. function:: capwords(s[, sep])
+
+ Split the argument into words using :meth:`str.split`, capitalize each word
+ using :meth:`str.capitalize`, and join the capitalized words using
+ :meth:`str.join`. If the optional second argument *sep* is absent
+ or ``None``, runs of whitespace characters are replaced by a single space
+ and leading and trailing whitespace are removed, otherwise *sep* is used to
+ split and join the words.
+
+
+.. function:: maketrans(from, to)
+
+ Return a translation table suitable for passing to :func:`translate`, that will
+ map each character in *from* into the character at the same position in *to*;
+ *from* and *to* must have the same length.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Don't use strings derived from :const:`lowercase` and :const:`uppercase` as
+ arguments; in some locales, these don't have the same length. For case
+ conversions, always use :meth:`str.lower` and :meth:`str.upper`.
+
+
+Deprecated string functions
+---------------------------
+
+The following list of functions are also defined as methods of string and
+Unicode objects; see section :ref:`string-methods` for more information on
+those. You should consider these functions as deprecated, although they will
+not be removed until Python 3. The functions defined in this module are:
+
+
+.. function:: atof(s)
+
+ .. deprecated:: 2.0
+ Use the :func:`float` built-in function.
+
+ .. index:: builtin: float
+
+ Convert a string to a floating point number. The string must have the standard
+ syntax for a floating point literal in Python, optionally preceded by a sign
+ (``+`` or ``-``). Note that this behaves identical to the built-in function
+ :func:`float` when passed a string.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ .. index::
+ single: NaN
+ single: Infinity
+
+ When passing in a string, values for NaN and Infinity may be returned, depending
+ on the underlying C library. The specific set of strings accepted which cause
+ these values to be returned depends entirely on the C library and is known to
+ vary.
+
+
+.. function:: atoi(s[, base])
+
+ .. deprecated:: 2.0
+ Use the :func:`int` built-in function.
+
+ .. index:: builtin: eval
+
+ Convert string *s* to an integer in the given *base*. The string must consist
+ of one or more digits, optionally preceded by a sign (``+`` or ``-``). The
+ *base* defaults to 10. If it is 0, a default base is chosen depending on the
+ leading characters of the string (after stripping the sign): ``0x`` or ``0X``
+ means 16, ``0`` means 8, anything else means 10. If *base* is 16, a leading
+ ``0x`` or ``0X`` is always accepted, though not required. This behaves
+ identically to the built-in function :func:`int` when passed a string. (Also
+ note: for a more flexible interpretation of numeric literals, use the built-in
+ function :func:`eval`.)
+
+
+.. function:: atol(s[, base])
+
+ .. deprecated:: 2.0
+ Use the :func:`long` built-in function.
+
+ .. index:: builtin: long
+
+ Convert string *s* to a long integer in the given *base*. The string must
+ consist of one or more digits, optionally preceded by a sign (``+`` or ``-``).
+ The *base* argument has the same meaning as for :func:`atoi`. A trailing ``l``
+ or ``L`` is not allowed, except if the base is 0. Note that when invoked
+ without *base* or with *base* set to 10, this behaves identical to the built-in
+ function :func:`long` when passed a string.
+
+
+.. function:: capitalize(word)
+
+ Return a copy of *word* with only its first character capitalized.
+
+
+.. function:: expandtabs(s[, tabsize])
+
+ Expand tabs in a string replacing them by one or more spaces, depending on the
+ current column and the given tab size. The column number is reset to zero after
+ each newline occurring in the string. This doesn't understand other non-printing
+ characters or escape sequences. The tab size defaults to 8.
+
+
+.. function:: find(s, sub[, start[,end]])
+
+ Return the lowest index in *s* where the substring *sub* is found such that
+ *sub* is wholly contained in ``s[start:end]``. Return ``-1`` on failure.
+ Defaults for *start* and *end* and interpretation of negative values is the same
+ as for slices.
+
+
+.. function:: rfind(s, sub[, start[, end]])
+
+ Like :func:`find` but find the highest index.
+
+
+.. function:: index(s, sub[, start[, end]])
+
+ Like :func:`find` but raise :exc:`ValueError` when the substring is not found.
+
+
+.. function:: rindex(s, sub[, start[, end]])
+
+ Like :func:`rfind` but raise :exc:`ValueError` when the substring is not found.
+
+
+.. function:: count(s, sub[, start[, end]])
+
+ Return the number of (non-overlapping) occurrences of substring *sub* in string
+ ``s[start:end]``. Defaults for *start* and *end* and interpretation of negative
+ values are the same as for slices.
+
+
+.. function:: lower(s)
+
+ Return a copy of *s*, but with upper case letters converted to lower case.
+
+
+.. function:: split(s[, sep[, maxsplit]])
+
+ Return a list of the words of the string *s*. If the optional second argument
+ *sep* is absent or ``None``, the words are separated by arbitrary strings of
+ whitespace characters (space, tab, newline, return, formfeed). If the second
+ argument *sep* is present and not ``None``, it specifies a string to be used as
+ the word separator. The returned list will then have one more item than the
+ number of non-overlapping occurrences of the separator in the string.
+ If *maxsplit* is given, at most *maxsplit* number of splits occur, and the
+ remainder of the string is returned as the final element of the list (thus,
+ the list will have at most ``maxsplit+1`` elements). If *maxsplit* is not
+ specified or ``-1``, then there is no limit on the number of splits (all
+ possible splits are made).
+
+ The behavior of split on an empty string depends on the value of *sep*. If *sep*
+ is not specified, or specified as ``None``, the result will be an empty list.
+ If *sep* is specified as any string, the result will be a list containing one
+ element which is an empty string.
+
+
+.. function:: rsplit(s[, sep[, maxsplit]])
+
+ Return a list of the words of the string *s*, scanning *s* from the end. To all
+ intents and purposes, the resulting list of words is the same as returned by
+ :func:`split`, except when the optional third argument *maxsplit* is explicitly
+ specified and nonzero. If *maxsplit* is given, at most *maxsplit* number of
+ splits -- the *rightmost* ones -- occur, and the remainder of the string is
+ returned as the first element of the list (thus, the list will have at most
+ ``maxsplit+1`` elements).
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+.. function:: splitfields(s[, sep[, maxsplit]])
+
+ This function behaves identically to :func:`split`. (In the past, :func:`split`
+ was only used with one argument, while :func:`splitfields` was only used with
+ two arguments.)
+
+
+.. function:: join(words[, sep])
+
+ Concatenate a list or tuple of words with intervening occurrences of *sep*.
+ The default value for *sep* is a single space character. It is always true that
+ ``string.join(string.split(s, sep), sep)`` equals *s*.
+
+
+.. function:: joinfields(words[, sep])
+
+ This function behaves identically to :func:`join`. (In the past, :func:`join`
+ was only used with one argument, while :func:`joinfields` was only used with two
+ arguments.) Note that there is no :meth:`joinfields` method on string objects;
+ use the :meth:`join` method instead.
+
+
+.. function:: lstrip(s[, chars])
+
+ Return a copy of the string with leading characters removed. If *chars* is
+ omitted or ``None``, whitespace characters are removed. If given and not
+ ``None``, *chars* must be a string; the characters in the string will be
+ stripped from the beginning of the string this method is called on.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.2.3
+ The *chars* parameter was added. The *chars* parameter cannot be passed in
+ earlier 2.2 versions.
+
+
+.. function:: rstrip(s[, chars])
+
+ Return a copy of the string with trailing characters removed. If *chars* is
+ omitted or ``None``, whitespace characters are removed. If given and not
+ ``None``, *chars* must be a string; the characters in the string will be
+ stripped from the end of the string this method is called on.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.2.3
+ The *chars* parameter was added. The *chars* parameter cannot be passed in
+ earlier 2.2 versions.
+
+
+.. function:: strip(s[, chars])
+
+ Return a copy of the string with leading and trailing characters removed. If
+ *chars* is omitted or ``None``, whitespace characters are removed. If given and
+ not ``None``, *chars* must be a string; the characters in the string will be
+ stripped from the both ends of the string this method is called on.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.2.3
+ The *chars* parameter was added. The *chars* parameter cannot be passed in
+ earlier 2.2 versions.
+
+
+.. function:: swapcase(s)
+
+ Return a copy of *s*, but with lower case letters converted to upper case and
+ vice versa.
+
+
+.. function:: translate(s, table[, deletechars])
+
+ Delete all characters from *s* that are in *deletechars* (if present), and then
+ translate the characters using *table*, which must be a 256-character string
+ giving the translation for each character value, indexed by its ordinal. If
+ *table* is ``None``, then only the character deletion step is performed.
+
+
+.. function:: upper(s)
+
+ Return a copy of *s*, but with lower case letters converted to upper case.
+
+
+.. function:: ljust(s, width[, fillchar])
+ rjust(s, width[, fillchar])
+ center(s, width[, fillchar])
+
+ These functions respectively left-justify, right-justify and center a string in
+ a field of given width. They return a string that is at least *width*
+ characters wide, created by padding the string *s* with the character *fillchar*
+ (default is a space) until the given width on the right, left or both sides.
+ The string is never truncated.
+
+
+.. function:: zfill(s, width)
+
+ Pad a numeric string *s* on the left with zero digits until the
+ given *width* is reached. Strings starting with a sign are handled
+ correctly.
+
+
+.. function:: replace(s, old, new[, maxreplace])
+
+ Return a copy of string *s* with all occurrences of substring *old* replaced
+ by *new*. If the optional argument *maxreplace* is given, the first
+ *maxreplace* occurrences are replaced.

+This module implements a file-like class, :class:`StringIO`, that reads and
+writes a string buffer (also known as *memory files*). See the description of
+file objects for operations (section :ref:`bltin-file-objects`). (For
+standard strings, see :class:`str` and :class:`unicode`.)
+
+
+.. class:: StringIO([buffer])
+
+ When a :class:`StringIO` object is created, it can be initialized to an existing
+ string by passing the string to the constructor. If no string is given, the
+ :class:`StringIO` will start empty. In both cases, the initial file position
+ starts at zero.
+
+ The :class:`StringIO` object can accept either Unicode or 8-bit strings, but
+ mixing the two may take some care. If both are used, 8-bit strings that cannot
+ be interpreted as 7-bit ASCII (that use the 8th bit) will cause a
+ :exc:`UnicodeError` to be raised when :meth:`getvalue` is called.
+
+The following methods of :class:`StringIO` objects require special mention:
+
+
+.. method:: StringIO.getvalue()
+
+ Retrieve the entire contents of the "file" at any time before the
+ :class:`StringIO` object's :meth:`close` method is called. See the note above
+ for information about mixing Unicode and 8-bit strings; such mixing can cause
+ this method to raise :exc:`UnicodeError`.
+
+
+.. method:: StringIO.close()
+
+ Free the memory buffer. Attempting to do further operations with a closed
+ :class:`StringIO` object will raise a :exc:`ValueError`.
+
+Example usage::
+
+ import StringIO
+
+ output = StringIO.StringIO()
+ output.write('First line.\n')
+ print >>output, 'Second line.'
+
+ # Retrieve file contents -- this will be
+ # 'First line.\nSecond line.\n'
+ contents = output.getvalue()
+
+ # Close object and discard memory buffer --
+ # .getvalue() will now raise an exception.
+ output.close()
+
+
+:mod:`cStringIO` --- Faster version of :mod:`StringIO`
+======================================================
+
+.. module:: cStringIO
+ :synopsis: Faster version of StringIO, but not subclassable.
+.. moduleauthor:: Jim Fulton <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Fred L. Drake, Jr. <[email protected]>
+
+
+The module :mod:`cStringIO` provides an interface similar to that of the
+:mod:`StringIO` module. Heavy use of :class:`StringIO.StringIO` objects can be
+made more efficient by using the function :func:`StringIO` from this module
+instead.
+
+
+.. function:: StringIO([s])
+
+ Return a StringIO-like stream for reading or writing.
+
+ Since this is a factory function which returns objects of built-in types,
+ there's no way to build your own version using subclassing. It's not
+ possible to set attributes on it. Use the original :mod:`StringIO` module in
+ those cases.
+
+ Unlike the :mod:`StringIO` module, this module is not able to accept Unicode
+ strings that cannot be encoded as plain ASCII strings.
+
+ Another difference from the :mod:`StringIO` module is that calling
+ :func:`StringIO` with a string parameter creates a read-only object. Unlike an
+ object created without a string parameter, it does not have write methods.
+ These objects are not generally visible. They turn up in tracebacks as
+ :class:`StringI` and :class:`StringO`.
+
+
+
+The following data objects are provided as well:
+
+
+.. data:: InputType
+
+ The type object of the objects created by calling :func:`StringIO` with a string
+ parameter.
+
+
+.. data:: OutputType
+
+ The type object of the objects returned by calling :func:`StringIO` with no
+ parameters.
+
+There is a C API to the module as well; refer to the module source for more
+information.
+
+Example usage::
+
+ import cStringIO
+
+ output = cStringIO.StringIO()
+ output.write('First line.\n')
+ print >>output, 'Second line.'
+
+ # Retrieve file contents -- this will be
+ # 'First line.\nSecond line.\n'
+ contents = output.getvalue()
+
+ # Close object and discard memory buffer --
+ # .getvalue() will now raise an exception.
+ output.close()

+:mod:`stringprep` --- Internet String Preparation
+=================================================
+
+.. module:: stringprep
+ :synopsis: String preparation, as per RFC 3453
+ :deprecated:
+.. moduleauthor:: Martin v. Löwis <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Martin v. Löwis <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+When identifying things (such as host names) in the internet, it is often
+necessary to compare such identifications for "equality". Exactly how this
+comparison is executed may depend on the application domain, e.g. whether it
+should be case-insensitive or not. It may be also necessary to restrict the
+possible identifications, to allow only identifications consisting of
+"printable" characters.
+
+:rfc:`3454` defines a procedure for "preparing" Unicode strings in internet
+protocols. Before passing strings onto the wire, they are processed with the
+preparation procedure, after which they have a certain normalized form. The RFC
+defines a set of tables, which can be combined into profiles. Each profile must
+define which tables it uses, and what other optional parts of the ``stringprep``
+procedure are part of the profile. One example of a ``stringprep`` profile is
+``nameprep``, which is used for internationalized domain names.
+
+The module :mod:`stringprep` only exposes the tables from RFC 3454. As these
+tables would be very large to represent them as dictionaries or lists, the
+module uses the Unicode character database internally. The module source code
+itself was generated using the ``mkstringprep.py`` utility.
+
+As a result, these tables are exposed as functions, not as data structures.
+There are two kinds of tables in the RFC: sets and mappings. For a set,
+:mod:`stringprep` provides the "characteristic function", i.e. a function that
+returns true if the parameter is part of the set. For mappings, it provides the
+mapping function: given the key, it returns the associated value. Below is a
+list of all functions available in the module.
+
+
+.. function:: in_table_a1(code)
+
+ Determine whether *code* is in tableA.1 (Unassigned code points in Unicode 3.2).
+
+
+.. function:: in_table_b1(code)
+
+ Determine whether *code* is in tableB.1 (Commonly mapped to nothing).
+
+
+.. function:: map_table_b2(code)
+

+ case-folding used with NFKC).
+
+
+.. function:: map_table_b3(code)
+
+ Return the mapped value for *code* according to tableB.3 (Mapping for
+ case-folding used with no normalization).

+:mod:`struct` --- Interpret strings as packed binary data
+=========================================================
+
+.. module:: struct
+ :synopsis: Interpret strings as packed binary data.
+
+.. index::
+ pair: C; structures
+ triple: packing; binary; data
+
+This module performs conversions between Python values and C structs represented
+as Python strings. This can be used in handling binary data stored in files or
+from network connections, among other sources. It uses
+:ref:`struct-format-strings` as compact descriptions of the layout of the C
+structs and the intended conversion to/from Python values.
+
+.. note::
+
+ By default, the result of packing a given C struct includes pad bytes in
+ order to maintain proper alignment for the C types involved; similarly,
+ alignment is taken into account when unpacking. This behavior is chosen so
+ that the bytes of a packed struct correspond exactly to the layout in memory
+ of the corresponding C struct. To handle platform-independent data formats
+ or omit implicit pad bytes, use ``standard`` size and alignment instead of
+ ``native`` size and alignment: see :ref:`struct-alignment` for details.
+
+Functions and Exceptions
+------------------------
+
+The module defines the following exception and functions:
+
+
+.. exception:: error
+
+ Exception raised on various occasions; argument is a string describing what
+ is wrong.
+
+
+.. function:: pack(fmt, v1, v2, ...)
+
+ Return a string containing the values ``v1, v2, ...`` packed according to the
+ given format. The arguments must match the values required by the format
+ exactly.
+
+
+.. function:: pack_into(fmt, buffer, offset, v1, v2, ...)
+
+ Pack the values ``v1, v2, ...`` according to the given format, write the
+ packed bytes into the writable *buffer* starting at *offset*. Note that the
+ offset is a required argument.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. function:: unpack(fmt, string)
+
+ Unpack the string (presumably packed by ``pack(fmt, ...)``) according to the
+ given format. The result is a tuple even if it contains exactly one item.
+ The string must contain exactly the amount of data required by the format
+ (``len(string)`` must equal ``calcsize(fmt)``).
+
+
+.. function:: unpack_from(fmt, buffer[,offset=0])
+
+ Unpack the *buffer* according to the given format. The result is a tuple even
+ if it contains exactly one item. The *buffer* must contain at least the
+ amount of data required by the format (``len(buffer[offset:])`` must be at
+ least ``calcsize(fmt)``).
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. function:: calcsize(fmt)
+
+ Return the size of the struct (and hence of the string) corresponding to the
+ given format.
+
+.. _struct-format-strings:
+
+Format Strings
+--------------
+
+Format strings are the mechanism used to specify the expected layout when
+packing and unpacking data. They are built up from :ref:`format-characters`,
+which specify the type of data being packed/unpacked. In addition, there are
+special characters for controlling the :ref:`struct-alignment`.
+
+
+.. _struct-alignment:
+
+Byte Order, Size, and Alignment
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+By default, C types are represented in the machine's native format and byte
+order, and properly aligned by skipping pad bytes if necessary (according to the
+rules used by the C compiler).
+
+Alternatively, the first character of the format string can be used to indicate
+the byte order, size and alignment of the packed data, according to the
+following table:
+
++-----------+------------------------+----------+-----------+
+| Character | Byte order | Size | Alignment |
++===========+========================+==========+===========+
+| ``@`` | native | native | native |
++-----------+------------------------+----------+-----------+
+| ``=`` | native | standard | none |
++-----------+------------------------+----------+-----------+
+| ``<`` | little-endian | standard | none |
++-----------+------------------------+----------+-----------+
+| ``>`` | big-endian | standard | none |
++-----------+------------------------+----------+-----------+
+| ``!`` | network (= big-endian) | standard | none |
++-----------+------------------------+----------+-----------+
+
+If the first character is not one of these, ``'@'`` is assumed.
+
+Native byte order is big-endian or little-endian, depending on the host
+system. For example, Intel x86 and AMD64 (x86-64) are little-endian;
+Motorola 68000 and PowerPC G5 are big-endian; ARM and Intel Itanium feature
+switchable endianness (bi-endian). Use ``sys.byteorder`` to check the
+endianness of your system.
+
+Native size and alignment are determined using the C compiler's
+``sizeof`` expression. This is always combined with native byte order.
+
+Standard size depends only on the format character; see the table in
+the :ref:`format-characters` section.
+
+Note the difference between ``'@'`` and ``'='``: both use native byte order, but
+the size and alignment of the latter is standardized.
+
+The form ``'!'`` is available for those poor souls who claim they can't remember
+whether network byte order is big-endian or little-endian.
+
+There is no way to indicate non-native byte order (force byte-swapping); use the
+appropriate choice of ``'<'`` or ``'>'``.
+
+Notes:
+
+(1) Padding is only automatically added between successive structure members.
+ No padding is added at the beginning or the end of the encoded struct.
+
+(2) No padding is added when using non-native size and alignment, e.g.
+ with '<', '>', '=', and '!'.
+
+(3) To align the end of a structure to the alignment requirement of a
+ particular type, end the format with the code for that type with a repeat
+ count of zero. See :ref:`struct-examples`.
+
+
+.. _format-characters:
+
+Format Characters
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Format characters have the following meaning; the conversion between C and
+Python values should be obvious given their types. The 'Standard size' column
+refers to the size of the packed value in bytes when using standard size; that
+is, when the format string starts with one of ``'<'``, ``'>'``, ``'!'`` or
+``'='``. When using native size, the size of the packed value is
+platform-dependent.
+
++--------+--------------------------+--------------------+----------------+------------+

+
+Notes:
+
+(1)
+ The ``'?'`` conversion code corresponds to the :c:type:`_Bool` type defined by
+ C99. If this type is not available, it is simulated using a :c:type:`char`. In
+ standard mode, it is always represented by one byte.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+(2)
+ The ``'q'`` and ``'Q'`` conversion codes are available in native mode only if
+ the platform C compiler supports C :c:type:`long long`, or, on Windows,
+ :c:type:`__int64`. They are always available in standard modes.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+(3)
+ When attempting to pack a non-integer using any of the integer conversion
+ codes, if the non-integer has a :meth:`__index__` method then that method is
+ called to convert the argument to an integer before packing. If no
+ :meth:`__index__` method exists, or the call to :meth:`__index__` raises
+ :exc:`TypeError`, then the :meth:`__int__` method is tried. However, the use
+ of :meth:`__int__` is deprecated, and will raise :exc:`DeprecationWarning`.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ Use of the :meth:`__index__` method for non-integers is new in 2.7.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ Prior to version 2.7, not all integer conversion codes would use the
+ :meth:`__int__` method to convert, and :exc:`DeprecationWarning` was
+ raised only for float arguments.
+
+(4)
+ For the ``'f'`` and ``'d'`` conversion codes, the packed representation uses
+ the IEEE 754 binary32 (for ``'f'``) or binary64 (for ``'d'``) format,
+ regardless of the floating-point format used by the platform.
+
+(5)
+ The ``'P'`` format character is only available for the native byte ordering
+ (selected as the default or with the ``'@'`` byte order character). The byte
+ order character ``'='`` chooses to use little- or big-endian ordering based
+ on the host system. The struct module does not interpret this as native
+ ordering, so the ``'P'`` format is not available.
+
+
+A format character may be preceded by an integral repeat count. For example,
+the format string ``'4h'`` means exactly the same as ``'hhhh'``.
+
+Whitespace characters between formats are ignored; a count and its format must
+not contain whitespace though.
+
+For the ``'s'`` format character, the count is interpreted as the size of the
+string, not a repeat count like for the other format characters; for example,
+``'10s'`` means a single 10-byte string, while ``'10c'`` means 10 characters.
+If a count is not given, it defaults to 1. For packing, the string is
+truncated or padded with null bytes as appropriate to make it fit. For
+unpacking, the resulting string always has exactly the specified number of
+bytes. As a special case, ``'0s'`` means a single, empty string (while
+``'0c'`` means 0 characters).
+
+The ``'p'`` format character encodes a "Pascal string", meaning a short
+variable-length string stored in a *fixed number of bytes*, given by the count.
+The first byte stored is the length of the string, or 255, whichever is smaller.
+The bytes of the string follow. If the string passed in to :func:`pack` is too
+long (longer than the count minus 1), only the leading ``count-1`` bytes of the
+string are stored. If the string is shorter than ``count-1``, it is padded with
+null bytes so that exactly count bytes in all are used. Note that for
+:func:`unpack`, the ``'p'`` format character consumes count bytes, but that the
+string returned can never contain more than 255 characters.
+
+For the ``'P'`` format character, the return value is a Python integer or long
+integer, depending on the size needed to hold a pointer when it has been cast to
+an integer type. A *NULL* pointer will always be returned as the Python integer
+``0``. When packing pointer-sized values, Python integer or long integer objects
+may be used. For example, the Alpha and Merced processors use 64-bit pointer
+values, meaning a Python long integer will be used to hold the pointer; other
+platforms use 32-bit pointers and will use a Python integer.
+
+For the ``'?'`` format character, the return value is either :const:`True` or
+:const:`False`. When packing, the truth value of the argument object is used.
+Either 0 or 1 in the native or standard bool representation will be packed, and
+any non-zero value will be True when unpacking.
+
+
+
+.. _struct-examples:
+
+Examples
+^^^^^^^^
+
+.. note::
+ All examples assume a native byte order, size, and alignment with a
+ big-endian machine.
+
+A basic example of packing/unpacking three integers::
+
+ >>> from struct import *
+ >>> pack('hhl', 1, 2, 3)
+ '\x00\x01\x00\x02\x00\x00\x00\x03'
+ >>> unpack('hhl', '\x00\x01\x00\x02\x00\x00\x00\x03')
+ (1, 2, 3)
+ >>> calcsize('hhl')
+ 8
+
+Unpacked fields can be named by assigning them to variables or by wrapping
+the result in a named tuple::
+
+ >>> record = 'raymond \x32\x12\x08\x01\x08'
+ >>> name, serialnum, school, gradelevel = unpack('<10sHHb', record)
+
+ >>> from collections import namedtuple
+ >>> Student = namedtuple('Student', 'name serialnum school gradelevel')
+ >>> Student._make(unpack('<10sHHb', record))
+ Student(name='raymond ', serialnum=4658, school=264, gradelevel=8)
+
+The ordering of format characters may have an impact on size since the padding
+needed to satisfy alignment requirements is different::
+
+ >>> pack('ci', '*', 0x12131415)
+ '*\x00\x00\x00\x12\x13\x14\x15'
+ >>> pack('ic', 0x12131415, '*')
+ '\x12\x13\x14\x15*'
+ >>> calcsize('ci')
+ 8
+ >>> calcsize('ic')
+ 5
+
+The following format ``'llh0l'`` specifies two pad bytes at the end, assuming
+longs are aligned on 4-byte boundaries::
+
+ >>> pack('llh0l', 1, 2, 3)
+ '\x00\x00\x00\x01\x00\x00\x00\x02\x00\x03\x00\x00'
+
+This only works when native size and alignment are in effect; standard size and
+alignment does not enforce any alignment.

+The :mod:`struct` module also defines the following type:
+

+
+ Return a new Struct object which writes and reads binary data according to

+ methods is more efficient than calling the :mod:`struct` functions with the
+ same format since the format string only needs to be compiled once.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+ Compiled Struct objects support the following methods and attributes:
+
+
+ .. method:: pack(v1, v2, ...)
+
+ Identical to the :func:`pack` function, using the compiled format.
+ (``len(result)`` will equal :attr:`self.size`.)

+
+ Identical to the :func:`pack_into` function, using the compiled format.
+

+ .. method:: unpack(string)
+
+ Identical to the :func:`unpack` function, using the compiled format.
+ (``len(string)`` must equal :attr:`self.size`).

+:mod:`subprocess` --- Subprocess management
+===========================================
+
+.. module:: subprocess
+ :synopsis: Subprocess management.
+.. moduleauthor:: Peter Åstrand <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Peter Åstrand <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+The :mod:`subprocess` module allows you to spawn new processes, connect to their
+input/output/error pipes, and obtain their return codes. This module intends to
+replace several other, older modules and functions, such as::
+
+ os.system
+ os.spawn*
+ os.popen*
+ popen2.*
+ commands.*
+
+Information about how the :mod:`subprocess` module can be used to replace these
+modules and functions can be found in the following sections.
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ :pep:`324` -- PEP proposing the subprocess module
+
+
+Using the :mod:`subprocess` Module
+----------------------------------
+
+The recommended approach to invoking subprocesses is to use the following
+convenience functions for all use cases they can handle. For more advanced
+use cases, the underlying :class:`Popen` interface can be used directly.
+
+
+.. function:: call(args, *, stdin=None, stdout=None, stderr=None, shell=False)
+
+ Run the command described by *args*. Wait for command to complete, then
+ return the :attr:`returncode` attribute.
+
+ The arguments shown above are merely the most common ones, described below
+ in :ref:`frequently-used-arguments` (hence the slightly odd notation in
+ the abbreviated signature). The full function signature is the same as
+ that of the :class:`Popen` constructor - this functions passes all
+ supplied arguments directly through to that interface.
+
+ Examples::
+
+ >>> subprocess.call(["ls", "-l"])
+ 0
+
+ >>> subprocess.call("exit 1", shell=True)
+ 1
+
+ .. warning::
+
+ Invoking the system shell with ``shell=True`` can be a security hazard
+ if combined with untrusted input. See the warning under
+ :ref:`frequently-used-arguments` for details.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Do not use ``stdout=PIPE`` or ``stderr=PIPE`` with this function. As
+ the pipes are not being read in the current process, the child
+ process may block if it generates enough output to a pipe to fill up
+ the OS pipe buffer.
+
+
+.. function:: check_call(args, *, stdin=None, stdout=None, stderr=None, shell=False)
+
+ Run command with arguments. Wait for command to complete. If the return
+ code was zero then return, otherwise raise :exc:`CalledProcessError`. The
+ :exc:`CalledProcessError` object will have the return code in the
+ :attr:`returncode` attribute.
+
+ The arguments shown above are merely the most common ones, described below
+ in :ref:`frequently-used-arguments` (hence the slightly odd notation in
+ the abbreviated signature). The full function signature is the same as
+ that of the :class:`Popen` constructor - this functions passes all
+ supplied arguments directly through to that interface.
+
+ Examples::
+
+ >>> subprocess.check_call(["ls", "-l"])
+ 0
+
+ >>> subprocess.check_call("exit 1", shell=True)
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ ...
+ subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command 'exit 1' returned non-zero exit status 1
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+ .. warning::
+
+ Invoking the system shell with ``shell=True`` can be a security hazard
+ if combined with untrusted input. See the warning under
+ :ref:`frequently-used-arguments` for details.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Do not use ``stdout=PIPE`` or ``stderr=PIPE`` with this function. As
+ the pipes are not being read in the current process, the child
+ process may block if it generates enough output to a pipe to fill up
+ the OS pipe buffer.
+
+
+.. function:: check_output(args, *, stdin=None, stderr=None, shell=False, universal_newlines=False)
+
+ Run command with arguments and return its output as a byte string.
+
+ If the return code was non-zero it raises a :exc:`CalledProcessError`. The
+ :exc:`CalledProcessError` object will have the return code in the
+ :attr:`returncode` attribute and any output in the :attr:`output`
+ attribute.
+
+ The arguments shown above are merely the most common ones, described below
+ in :ref:`frequently-used-arguments` (hence the slightly odd notation in
+ the abbreviated signature). The full function signature is largely the
+ same as that of the :class:`Popen` constructor, except that *stdout* is
+ not permitted as it is used internally. All other supplied arguments are
+ passed directly through to the :class:`Popen` constructor.
+
+ Examples::
+
+ >>> subprocess.check_output(["echo", "Hello World!"])
+ 'Hello World!\n'
+
+ >>> subprocess.check_output("exit 1", shell=True)
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ ...
+ subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command 'exit 1' returned non-zero exit status 1
+
+ To also capture standard error in the result, use
+ ``stderr=subprocess.STDOUT``::
+
+ >>> subprocess.check_output(
+ ... "ls non_existent_file; exit 0",
+ ... stderr=subprocess.STDOUT,
+ ... shell=True)
+ 'ls: non_existent_file: No such file or directory\n'
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+ ..
+
+ .. warning::
+
+ Invoking the system shell with ``shell=True`` can be a security hazard
+ if combined with untrusted input. See the warning under
+ :ref:`frequently-used-arguments` for details.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Do not use ``stderr=PIPE`` with this function. As the pipe is not being
+ read in the current process, the child process may block if it
+ generates enough output to the pipe to fill up the OS pipe buffer.
+
+
+.. data:: PIPE
+
+ Special value that can be used as the *stdin*, *stdout* or *stderr* argument
+ to :class:`Popen` and indicates that a pipe to the standard stream should be
+ opened.
+
+
+.. data:: STDOUT
+
+ Special value that can be used as the *stderr* argument to :class:`Popen` and
+ indicates that standard error should go into the same handle as standard
+ output.
+
+
+.. exception:: CalledProcessError
+
+ Exception raised when a process run by :func:`check_call` or
+ :func:`check_output` returns a non-zero exit status.
+
+ .. attribute:: returncode
+
+ Exit status of the child process.
+
+ .. attribute:: cmd
+
+ Command that was used to spawn the child process.
+
+ .. attribute:: output
+
+ Output of the child process if this exception is raised by
+ :func:`check_output`. Otherwise, ``None``.

+.. _frequently-used-arguments:
+
+Frequently Used Arguments
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+To support a wide variety of use cases, the :class:`Popen` constructor (and
+the convenience functions) accept a large number of optional arguments. For
+most typical use cases, many of these arguments can be safely left at their
+default values. The arguments that are most commonly needed are:
+
+ *args* is required for all calls and should be a string, or a sequence of
+ program arguments. Providing a sequence of arguments is generally
+ preferred, as it allows the module to take care of any required escaping
+ and quoting of arguments (e.g. to permit spaces in file names). If passing
+ a single string, either *shell* must be :const:`True` (see below) or else
+ the string must simply name the program to be executed without specifying
+ any arguments.
+
+ *stdin*, *stdout* and *stderr* specify the executed program's standard input,
+ standard output and standard error file handles, respectively. Valid values
+ are :data:`PIPE`, an existing file descriptor (a positive integer), an
+ existing file object, and ``None``. :data:`PIPE` indicates that a new pipe
+ to the child should be created. With the default settings of ``None``, no
+ redirection will occur; the child's file handles will be inherited from the
+ parent. Additionally, *stderr* can be :data:`STDOUT`, which indicates that
+ the stderr data from the child process should be captured into the same file
+ handle as for stdout.
+
+ .. index::
+ single: universal newlines; subprocess module
+
+ When *stdout* or *stderr* are pipes and *universal_newlines* is
+ ``True`` then all line endings will be converted to ``'\n'`` as described
+ for the :term:`universal newlines` ``'U'`` mode argument to :func:`open`.
+
+ If *shell* is ``True``, the specified command will be executed through
+ the shell. This can be useful if you are using Python primarily for the
+ enhanced control flow it offers over most system shells and still want
+ convenient access to other shell features such as shell pipes, filename
+ wildcards, environment variable expansion, and expansion of ``~`` to a
+ user's home directory. However, note that Python itself offers
+ implementations of many shell-like features (in particular, :mod:`glob`,
+ :mod:`fnmatch`, :func:`os.walk`, :func:`os.path.expandvars`,
+ :func:`os.path.expanduser`, and :mod:`shutil`).
+
+ .. warning::
+
+ Executing shell commands that incorporate unsanitized input from an
+ untrusted source makes a program vulnerable to `shell injection
+ <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shell_injection#Shell_injection>`_,
+ a serious security flaw which can result in arbitrary command execution.
+ For this reason, the use of ``shell=True`` is **strongly discouraged**
+ in cases where the command string is constructed from external input::
+
+ >>> from subprocess import call
+ >>> filename = input("What file would you like to display?\n")
+ What file would you like to display?
+ non_existent; rm -rf / #
+ >>> call("cat " + filename, shell=True) # Uh-oh. This will end badly...
+
+ ``shell=False`` disables all shell based features, but does not suffer
+ from this vulnerability; see the Note in the :class:`Popen` constructor
+ documentation for helpful hints in getting ``shell=False`` to work.
+
+ When using ``shell=True``, :func:`pipes.quote` can be used to properly
+ escape whitespace and shell metacharacters in strings that are going to
+ be used to construct shell commands.
+
+These options, along with all of the other options, are described in more
+detail in the :class:`Popen` constructor documentation.
+
+
+Popen Constructor
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The underlying process creation and management in this module is handled by
+the :class:`Popen` class. It offers a lot of flexibility so that developers
+are able to handle the less common cases not covered by the convenience
+functions.
+
+
+.. class:: Popen(args, bufsize=0, executable=None, stdin=None, stdout=None, \
+ stderr=None, preexec_fn=None, close_fds=False, shell=False, \
+ cwd=None, env=None, universal_newlines=False, \
+ startupinfo=None, creationflags=0)
+
+ Execute a child program in a new process. On Unix, the class uses
+ :meth:`os.execvp`-like behavior to execute the child program. On Windows,
+ the class uses the Windows ``CreateProcess()`` function. The arguments to
+ :class:`Popen` are as follows.
+
+ *args* should be a sequence of program arguments or else a single string.
+ By default, the program to execute is the first item in *args* if *args* is
+ a sequence. If *args* is a string, the interpretation is
+ platform-dependent and described below. See the *shell* and *executable*
+ arguments for additional differences from the default behavior. Unless
+ otherwise stated, it is recommended to pass *args* as a sequence.
+
+ On Unix, if *args* is a string, the string is interpreted as the name or
+ path of the program to execute. However, this can only be done if not
+ passing arguments to the program.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ :meth:`shlex.split` can be useful when determining the correct
+ tokenization for *args*, especially in complex cases::
+
+ >>> import shlex, subprocess
+ >>> command_line = raw_input()
+ /bin/vikings -input eggs.txt -output "spam spam.txt" -cmd "echo '$MONEY'"
+ >>> args = shlex.split(command_line)
+ >>> print args
+ ['/bin/vikings', '-input', 'eggs.txt', '-output', 'spam spam.txt', '-cmd', "echo '$MONEY'"]
+ >>> p = subprocess.Popen(args) # Success!
+
+ Note in particular that options (such as *-input*) and arguments (such
+ as *eggs.txt*) that are separated by whitespace in the shell go in separate
+ list elements, while arguments that need quoting or backslash escaping when
+ used in the shell (such as filenames containing spaces or the *echo* command
+ shown above) are single list elements.
+
+ On Windows, if *args* is a sequence, it will be converted to a string in a
+ manner described in :ref:`converting-argument-sequence`. This is because
+ the underlying ``CreateProcess()`` operates on strings.
+
+ The *shell* argument (which defaults to *False*) specifies whether to use
+ the shell as the program to execute. If *shell* is *True*, it is
+ recommended to pass *args* as a string rather than as a sequence.
+
+ On Unix with ``shell=True``, the shell defaults to :file:`/bin/sh`. If
+ *args* is a string, the string specifies the command
+ to execute through the shell. This means that the string must be
+ formatted exactly as it would be when typed at the shell prompt. This
+ includes, for example, quoting or backslash escaping filenames with spaces in
+ them. If *args* is a sequence, the first item specifies the command string, and
+ any additional items will be treated as additional arguments to the shell
+ itself. That is to say, :class:`Popen` does the equivalent of::
+
+ Popen(['/bin/sh', '-c', args[0], args[1], ...])
+
+ On Windows with ``shell=True``, the :envvar:`COMSPEC` environment variable
+ specifies the default shell. The only time you need to specify
+ ``shell=True`` on Windows is when the command you wish to execute is built
+ into the shell (e.g. :command:`dir` or :command:`copy`). You do not need
+ ``shell=True`` to run a batch file or console-based executable.
+
+ .. warning::
+
+ Passing ``shell=True`` can be a security hazard if combined with
+ untrusted input. See the warning under :ref:`frequently-used-arguments`
+ for details.
+
+ *bufsize*, if given, has the same meaning as the corresponding argument to the
+ built-in open() function: :const:`0` means unbuffered, :const:`1` means line
+ buffered, any other positive value means use a buffer of (approximately) that
+ size. A negative *bufsize* means to use the system default, which usually means
+ fully buffered. The default value for *bufsize* is :const:`0` (unbuffered).
+
+ .. note::
+
+ If you experience performance issues, it is recommended that you try to
+ enable buffering by setting *bufsize* to either -1 or a large enough
+ positive value (such as 4096).
+
+ The *executable* argument specifies a replacement program to execute. It
+ is very seldom needed. When ``shell=False``, *executable* replaces the
+ program to execute specified by *args*. However, the original *args* is
+ still passed to the program. Most programs treat the program specified
+ by *args* as the command name, which can then be different from the program
+ actually executed. On Unix, the *args* name
+ becomes the display name for the executable in utilities such as
+ :program:`ps`. If ``shell=True``, on Unix the *executable* argument
+ specifies a replacement shell for the default :file:`/bin/sh`.
+
+ *stdin*, *stdout* and *stderr* specify the executed program's standard input,
+ standard output and standard error file handles, respectively. Valid values
+ are :data:`PIPE`, an existing file descriptor (a positive integer), an
+ existing file object, and ``None``. :data:`PIPE` indicates that a new pipe
+ to the child should be created. With the default settings of ``None``, no
+ redirection will occur; the child's file handles will be inherited from the
+ parent. Additionally, *stderr* can be :data:`STDOUT`, which indicates that
+ the stderr data from the child process should be captured into the same file
+ handle as for stdout.
+
+ If *preexec_fn* is set to a callable object, this object will be called in the
+ child process just before the child is executed. (Unix only)
+
+ If *close_fds* is true, all file descriptors except :const:`0`, :const:`1` and
+ :const:`2` will be closed before the child process is executed. (Unix only).
+ Or, on Windows, if *close_fds* is true then no handles will be inherited by the
+ child process. Note that on Windows, you cannot set *close_fds* to true and
+ also redirect the standard handles by setting *stdin*, *stdout* or *stderr*.
+
+ If *cwd* is not ``None``, the child's current directory will be changed to *cwd*
+ before it is executed. Note that this directory is not considered when
+ searching the executable, so you can't specify the program's path relative to
+ *cwd*.
+
+ If *env* is not ``None``, it must be a mapping that defines the environment
+ variables for the new process; these are used instead of inheriting the current
+ process' environment, which is the default behavior.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ If specified, *env* must provide any variables required
+ for the program to execute. On Windows, in order to run a
+ `side-by-side assembly`_ the specified *env* **must** include a valid
+ :envvar:`SystemRoot`.
+
+ .. _side-by-side assembly: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Side-by-Side_Assembly
+
+ If *universal_newlines* is ``True``, the file objects *stdout* and *stderr*
+ are opened as text files in :term:`universal newlines` mode. Lines may be
+ terminated by any of ``'\n'``, the Unix end-of-line convention, ``'\r'``,
+ the old Macintosh convention or ``'\r\n'``, the Windows convention. All of
+ these external representations are seen as ``'\n'`` by the Python program.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ This feature is only available if Python is built with universal newline
+ support (the default). Also, the newlines attribute of the file objects
+ :attr:`stdout`, :attr:`stdin` and :attr:`stderr` are not updated by the
+ communicate() method.
+
+ If given, *startupinfo* will be a :class:`STARTUPINFO` object, which is
+ passed to the underlying ``CreateProcess`` function.
+ *creationflags*, if given, can be :data:`CREATE_NEW_CONSOLE` or
+ :data:`CREATE_NEW_PROCESS_GROUP`. (Windows only)
+
+
+Exceptions
+^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Exceptions raised in the child process, before the new program has started to
+execute, will be re-raised in the parent. Additionally, the exception object
+will have one extra attribute called :attr:`child_traceback`, which is a string
+containing traceback information from the child's point of view.
+
+The most common exception raised is :exc:`OSError`. This occurs, for example,
+when trying to execute a non-existent file. Applications should prepare for
+:exc:`OSError` exceptions.
+
+A :exc:`ValueError` will be raised if :class:`Popen` is called with invalid
+arguments.
+
+:func:`check_call` and :func:`check_output` will raise
+:exc:`CalledProcessError` if the called process returns a non-zero return
+code.
+
+
+Security
+^^^^^^^^
+
+Unlike some other popen functions, this implementation will never call a
+system shell implicitly. This means that all characters, including shell
+metacharacters, can safely be passed to child processes. Obviously, if the
+shell is invoked explicitly, then it is the application's responsibility to
+ensure that all whitespace and metacharacters are quoted appropriately.
+
+
+Popen Objects
+-------------
+
+Instances of the :class:`Popen` class have the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: Popen.poll()
+
+ Check if child process has terminated. Set and return :attr:`returncode`
+ attribute.
+
+
+.. method:: Popen.wait()
+
+ Wait for child process to terminate. Set and return :attr:`returncode`
+ attribute.
+
+ .. warning::
+
+ This will deadlock when using ``stdout=PIPE`` and/or
+ ``stderr=PIPE`` and the child process generates enough output to
+ a pipe such that it blocks waiting for the OS pipe buffer to
+ accept more data. Use :meth:`communicate` to avoid that.
+
+
+.. method:: Popen.communicate(input=None)
+
+ Interact with process: Send data to stdin. Read data from stdout and stderr,
+ until end-of-file is reached. Wait for process to terminate. The optional
+ *input* argument should be a string to be sent to the child process, or
+ ``None``, if no data should be sent to the child.
+
+ :meth:`communicate` returns a tuple ``(stdoutdata, stderrdata)``.
+
+ Note that if you want to send data to the process's stdin, you need to create
+ the Popen object with ``stdin=PIPE``. Similarly, to get anything other than
+ ``None`` in the result tuple, you need to give ``stdout=PIPE`` and/or
+ ``stderr=PIPE`` too.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ The data read is buffered in memory, so do not use this method if the data
+ size is large or unlimited.
+
+
+.. method:: Popen.send_signal(signal)
+
+ Sends the signal *signal* to the child.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ On Windows, SIGTERM is an alias for :meth:`terminate`. CTRL_C_EVENT and
+ CTRL_BREAK_EVENT can be sent to processes started with a *creationflags*
+ parameter which includes `CREATE_NEW_PROCESS_GROUP`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. method:: Popen.terminate()
+
+ Stop the child. On Posix OSs the method sends SIGTERM to the
+ child. On Windows the Win32 API function :c:func:`TerminateProcess` is called
+ to stop the child.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. method:: Popen.kill()
+
+ Kills the child. On Posix OSs the function sends SIGKILL to the child.
+ On Windows :meth:`kill` is an alias for :meth:`terminate`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+The following attributes are also available:
+
+.. warning::
+
+ Use :meth:`~Popen.communicate` rather than :attr:`.stdin.write <Popen.stdin>`,
+ :attr:`.stdout.read <Popen.stdout>` or :attr:`.stderr.read <Popen.stderr>` to avoid
+ deadlocks due to any of the other OS pipe buffers filling up and blocking the
+ child process.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Popen.stdin
+
+ If the *stdin* argument was :data:`PIPE`, this attribute is a file object
+ that provides input to the child process. Otherwise, it is ``None``.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Popen.stdout
+
+ If the *stdout* argument was :data:`PIPE`, this attribute is a file object
+ that provides output from the child process. Otherwise, it is ``None``.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Popen.stderr
+
+ If the *stderr* argument was :data:`PIPE`, this attribute is a file object
+ that provides error output from the child process. Otherwise, it is
+ ``None``.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Popen.pid
+
+ The process ID of the child process.
+
+ Note that if you set the *shell* argument to ``True``, this is the process ID
+ of the spawned shell.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Popen.returncode
+
+ The child return code, set by :meth:`poll` and :meth:`wait` (and indirectly
+ by :meth:`communicate`). A ``None`` value indicates that the process
+ hasn't terminated yet.
+
+ A negative value ``-N`` indicates that the child was terminated by signal
+ ``N`` (Unix only).
+
+
+Windows Popen Helpers
+---------------------
+
+The :class:`STARTUPINFO` class and following constants are only available
+on Windows.
+
+.. class:: STARTUPINFO()
+
+ Partial support of the Windows
+ `STARTUPINFO <http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms686331(v=vs.85).aspx>`__
+ structure is used for :class:`Popen` creation.
+
+ .. attribute:: dwFlags
+
+ A bit field that determines whether certain :class:`STARTUPINFO`
+ attributes are used when the process creates a window. ::
+
+ si = subprocess.STARTUPINFO()
+ si.dwFlags = subprocess.STARTF_USESTDHANDLES | subprocess.STARTF_USESHOWWINDOW
+
+ .. attribute:: hStdInput
+
+ If :attr:`dwFlags` specifies :data:`STARTF_USESTDHANDLES`, this attribute
+ is the standard input handle for the process. If
+ :data:`STARTF_USESTDHANDLES` is not specified, the default for standard
+ input is the keyboard buffer.
+
+ .. attribute:: hStdOutput
+
+ If :attr:`dwFlags` specifies :data:`STARTF_USESTDHANDLES`, this attribute
+ is the standard output handle for the process. Otherwise, this attribute
+ is ignored and the default for standard output is the console window's
+ buffer.
+
+ .. attribute:: hStdError
+
+ If :attr:`dwFlags` specifies :data:`STARTF_USESTDHANDLES`, this attribute
+ is the standard error handle for the process. Otherwise, this attribute is
+ ignored and the default for standard error is the console window's buffer.
+
+ .. attribute:: wShowWindow
+
+ If :attr:`dwFlags` specifies :data:`STARTF_USESHOWWINDOW`, this attribute
+ can be any of the values that can be specified in the ``nCmdShow``
+ parameter for the
+ `ShowWindow <http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms633548(v=vs.85).aspx>`__
+ function, except for ``SW_SHOWDEFAULT``. Otherwise, this attribute is
+ ignored.
+
+ :data:`SW_HIDE` is provided for this attribute. It is used when
+ :class:`Popen` is called with ``shell=True``.
+
+
+Constants
+^^^^^^^^^
+
+The :mod:`subprocess` module exposes the following constants.
+
+.. data:: STD_INPUT_HANDLE
+
+ The standard input device. Initially, this is the console input buffer,
+ ``CONIN$``.
+
+.. data:: STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE
+
+ The standard output device. Initially, this is the active console screen
+ buffer, ``CONOUT$``.
+
+.. data:: STD_ERROR_HANDLE
+
+ The standard error device. Initially, this is the active console screen
+ buffer, ``CONOUT$``.
+
+.. data:: SW_HIDE
+
+ Hides the window. Another window will be activated.
+
+.. data:: STARTF_USESTDHANDLES
+
+ Specifies that the :attr:`STARTUPINFO.hStdInput`,
+ :attr:`STARTUPINFO.hStdOutput`, and :attr:`STARTUPINFO.hStdError` attributes
+ contain additional information.
+
+.. data:: STARTF_USESHOWWINDOW
+
+ Specifies that the :attr:`STARTUPINFO.wShowWindow` attribute contains
+ additional information.
+
+.. data:: CREATE_NEW_CONSOLE
+
+ The new process has a new console, instead of inheriting its parent's
+ console (the default).
+
+ This flag is always set when :class:`Popen` is created with ``shell=True``.
+
+.. data:: CREATE_NEW_PROCESS_GROUP
+
+ A :class:`Popen` ``creationflags`` parameter to specify that a new process
+ group will be created. This flag is necessary for using :func:`os.kill`
+ on the subprocess.
+
+ This flag is ignored if :data:`CREATE_NEW_CONSOLE` is specified.
+
+
+.. _subprocess-replacements:
+
+Replacing Older Functions with the :mod:`subprocess` Module
+-----------------------------------------------------------
+
+In this section, "a becomes b" means that b can be used as a replacement for a.
+
+.. note::
+
+ All "a" functions in this section fail (more or less) silently if the
+ executed program cannot be found; the "b" replacements raise :exc:`OSError`
+ instead.
+
+ In addition, the replacements using :func:`check_output` will fail with a
+ :exc:`CalledProcessError` if the requested operation produces a non-zero
+ return code. The output is still available as the ``output`` attribute of
+ the raised exception.
+
+In the following examples, we assume that the relevant functions have already
+been imported from the :mod:`subprocess` module.
+
+
+Replacing /bin/sh shell backquote
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+::
+
+ output=`mycmd myarg`
+ # becomes
+ output = check_output(["mycmd", "myarg"])
+
+
+Replacing shell pipeline
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+::
+
+ output=`dmesg | grep hda`
+ # becomes
+ p1 = Popen(["dmesg"], stdout=PIPE)
+ p2 = Popen(["grep", "hda"], stdin=p1.stdout, stdout=PIPE)
+ p1.stdout.close() # Allow p1 to receive a SIGPIPE if p2 exits.
+ output = p2.communicate()[0]
+
+The p1.stdout.close() call after starting the p2 is important in order for p1
+to receive a SIGPIPE if p2 exits before p1.
+
+Alternatively, for trusted input, the shell's own pipeline support may still
+be used directly::
+
+ output=`dmesg | grep hda`
+ # becomes
+ output=check_output("dmesg | grep hda", shell=True)
+
+
+Replacing :func:`os.system`
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+::
+
+ sts = os.system("mycmd" + " myarg")
+ # becomes
+ sts = call("mycmd" + " myarg", shell=True)
+
+Notes:
+
+* Calling the program through the shell is usually not required.
+
+A more realistic example would look like this::
+
+ try:
+ retcode = call("mycmd" + " myarg", shell=True)
+ if retcode < 0:
+ print >>sys.stderr, "Child was terminated by signal", -retcode
+ else:
+ print >>sys.stderr, "Child returned", retcode
+ except OSError as e:
+ print >>sys.stderr, "Execution failed:", e
+
+
+Replacing the :func:`os.spawn <os.spawnl>` family
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+P_NOWAIT example::
+
+ pid = os.spawnlp(os.P_NOWAIT, "/bin/mycmd", "mycmd", "myarg")
+ ==>
+ pid = Popen(["/bin/mycmd", "myarg"]).pid
+
+P_WAIT example::
+
+ retcode = os.spawnlp(os.P_WAIT, "/bin/mycmd", "mycmd", "myarg")
+ ==>
+ retcode = call(["/bin/mycmd", "myarg"])
+
+Vector example::
+
+ os.spawnvp(os.P_NOWAIT, path, args)
+ ==>
+ Popen([path] + args[1:])
+
+Environment example::
+
+ os.spawnlpe(os.P_NOWAIT, "/bin/mycmd", "mycmd", "myarg", env)
+ ==>
+ Popen(["/bin/mycmd", "myarg"], env={"PATH": "/usr/bin"})
+
+
+Replacing :func:`os.popen`, :func:`os.popen2`, :func:`os.popen3`
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+::
+
+ pipe = os.popen("cmd", 'r', bufsize)
+ ==>
+ pipe = Popen("cmd", shell=True, bufsize=bufsize, stdout=PIPE).stdout
+
+::
+
+ pipe = os.popen("cmd", 'w', bufsize)
+ ==>
+ pipe = Popen("cmd", shell=True, bufsize=bufsize, stdin=PIPE).stdin
+
+::
+
+ (child_stdin, child_stdout) = os.popen2("cmd", mode, bufsize)
+ ==>
+ p = Popen("cmd", shell=True, bufsize=bufsize,
+ stdin=PIPE, stdout=PIPE, close_fds=True)
+ (child_stdin, child_stdout) = (p.stdin, p.stdout)
+
+::
+
+ (child_stdin,
+ child_stdout,
+ child_stderr) = os.popen3("cmd", mode, bufsize)
+ ==>
+ p = Popen("cmd", shell=True, bufsize=bufsize,
+ stdin=PIPE, stdout=PIPE, stderr=PIPE, close_fds=True)
+ (child_stdin,
+ child_stdout,
+ child_stderr) = (p.stdin, p.stdout, p.stderr)
+
+::
+
+ (child_stdin, child_stdout_and_stderr) = os.popen4("cmd", mode,
+ bufsize)
+ ==>
+ p = Popen("cmd", shell=True, bufsize=bufsize,
+ stdin=PIPE, stdout=PIPE, stderr=STDOUT, close_fds=True)
+ (child_stdin, child_stdout_and_stderr) = (p.stdin, p.stdout)
+
+On Unix, os.popen2, os.popen3 and os.popen4 also accept a sequence as
+the command to execute, in which case arguments will be passed
+directly to the program without shell intervention. This usage can be
+replaced as follows::
+
+ (child_stdin, child_stdout) = os.popen2(["/bin/ls", "-l"], mode,
+ bufsize)
+ ==>
+ p = Popen(["/bin/ls", "-l"], bufsize=bufsize, stdin=PIPE, stdout=PIPE)
+ (child_stdin, child_stdout) = (p.stdin, p.stdout)
+
+Return code handling translates as follows::
+
+ pipe = os.popen("cmd", 'w')
+ ...
+ rc = pipe.close()
+ if rc is not None and rc >> 8:
+ print "There were some errors"
+ ==>
+ process = Popen("cmd", 'w', shell=True, stdin=PIPE)
+ ...
+ process.stdin.close()
+ if process.wait() != 0:
+ print "There were some errors"
+
+
+Replacing functions from the :mod:`popen2` module
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+::
+
+ (child_stdout, child_stdin) = popen2.popen2("somestring", bufsize, mode)
+ ==>
+ p = Popen(["somestring"], shell=True, bufsize=bufsize,

+ (child_stdout, child_stdin) = (p.stdout, p.stdin)
+
+:class:`popen2.Popen3` and :class:`popen2.Popen4` basically work as
+:class:`subprocess.Popen`, except that:
+
+* :class:`Popen` raises an exception if the execution fails.
+
+* the *capturestderr* argument is replaced with the *stderr* argument.
+
+* ``stdin=PIPE`` and ``stdout=PIPE`` must be specified.
+
+* popen2 closes all file descriptors by default, but you have to specify
+ ``close_fds=True`` with :class:`Popen`.

+
+.. _converting-argument-sequence:
+
+Converting an argument sequence to a string on Windows
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+On Windows, an *args* sequence is converted to a string that can be parsed
+using the following rules (which correspond to the rules used by the MS C
+runtime):
+
+1. Arguments are delimited by white space, which is either a
+ space or a tab.
+
+2. A string surrounded by double quotation marks is
+ interpreted as a single argument, regardless of white space
+ contained within. A quoted string can be embedded in an
+ argument.
+
+3. A double quotation mark preceded by a backslash is
+ interpreted as a literal double quotation mark.
+
+4. Backslashes are interpreted literally, unless they
+ immediately precede a double quotation mark.
+
+5. If backslashes immediately precede a double quotation mark,
+ every pair of backslashes is interpreted as a literal
+ backslash. If the number of backslashes is odd, the last
+ backslash escapes the next double quotation mark as
+ described in rule 3.

+:mod:`sunau` --- Read and write Sun AU files
+============================================
+
+.. module:: sunau
+ :synopsis: Provide an interface to the Sun AU sound format.
+.. sectionauthor:: Moshe Zadka <[email protected]>
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/sunau.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`sunau` module provides a convenient interface to the Sun AU sound
+format. Note that this module is interface-compatible with the modules
+:mod:`aifc` and :mod:`wave`.
+
+An audio file consists of a header followed by the data. The fields of the
+header are:
+
++---------------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| Field | Contents |
++===============+===============================================+
+| magic word | The four bytes ``.snd``. |
++---------------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| header size | Size of the header, including info, in bytes. |
++---------------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| data size | Physical size of the data, in bytes. |
++---------------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| encoding | Indicates how the audio samples are encoded. |
++---------------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| sample rate | The sampling rate. |
++---------------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| # of channels | The number of channels in the samples. |
++---------------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| info | ASCII string giving a description of the |
+| | audio file (padded with null bytes). |
++---------------+-----------------------------------------------+
+
+Apart from the info field, all header fields are 4 bytes in size. They are all
+32-bit unsigned integers encoded in big-endian byte order.
+
+The :mod:`sunau` module defines the following functions:
+
+
+.. function:: open(file, mode)
+
+ If *file* is a string, open the file by that name, otherwise treat it as a
+ seekable file-like object. *mode* can be any of
+
+ ``'r'``
+ Read only mode.
+
+ ``'w'``
+ Write only mode.
+
+ Note that it does not allow read/write files.
+
+ A *mode* of ``'r'`` returns a :class:`AU_read` object, while a *mode* of ``'w'``
+ or ``'wb'`` returns a :class:`AU_write` object.
+
+
+.. function:: openfp(file, mode)
+
+ A synonym for :func:`.open`, maintained for backwards compatibility.
+
+
+The :mod:`sunau` module defines the following exception:
+
+.. exception:: Error
+
+ An error raised when something is impossible because of Sun AU specs or
+ implementation deficiency.
+
+
+The :mod:`sunau` module defines the following data items:
+
+.. data:: AUDIO_FILE_MAGIC
+
+ An integer every valid Sun AU file begins with, stored in big-endian form. This
+ is the string ``.snd`` interpreted as an integer.
+
+
+.. data:: AUDIO_FILE_ENCODING_MULAW_8
+ AUDIO_FILE_ENCODING_LINEAR_8
+ AUDIO_FILE_ENCODING_LINEAR_16
+ AUDIO_FILE_ENCODING_LINEAR_24
+ AUDIO_FILE_ENCODING_LINEAR_32
+ AUDIO_FILE_ENCODING_ALAW_8
+
+ Values of the encoding field from the AU header which are supported by this
+ module.
+
+
+.. data:: AUDIO_FILE_ENCODING_FLOAT
+ AUDIO_FILE_ENCODING_DOUBLE
+ AUDIO_FILE_ENCODING_ADPCM_G721
+ AUDIO_FILE_ENCODING_ADPCM_G722
+ AUDIO_FILE_ENCODING_ADPCM_G723_3
+ AUDIO_FILE_ENCODING_ADPCM_G723_5
+
+ Additional known values of the encoding field from the AU header, but which are
+ not supported by this module.
+
+
+.. _au-read-objects:
+
+AU_read Objects
+---------------
+
+AU_read objects, as returned by :func:`.open` above, have the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: AU_read.close()
+
+ Close the stream, and make the instance unusable. (This is called automatically
+ on deletion.)
+
+
+.. method:: AU_read.getnchannels()
+
+ Returns number of audio channels (1 for mone, 2 for stereo).
+
+
+.. method:: AU_read.getsampwidth()
+
+ Returns sample width in bytes.
+
+
+.. method:: AU_read.getframerate()
+
+ Returns sampling frequency.
+
+
+.. method:: AU_read.getnframes()
+
+ Returns number of audio frames.
+
+
+.. method:: AU_read.getcomptype()
+
+ Returns compression type. Supported compression types are ``'ULAW'``, ``'ALAW'``
+ and ``'NONE'``.
+
+
+.. method:: AU_read.getcompname()
+
+ Human-readable version of :meth:`getcomptype`. The supported types have the
+ respective names ``'CCITT G.711 u-law'``, ``'CCITT G.711 A-law'`` and ``'not
+ compressed'``.
+
+
+.. method:: AU_read.getparams()
+
+ Returns a tuple ``(nchannels, sampwidth, framerate, nframes, comptype,
+ compname)``, equivalent to output of the :meth:`get\*` methods.
+
+
+.. method:: AU_read.readframes(n)
+
+ Reads and returns at most *n* frames of audio, as a string of bytes. The data
+ will be returned in linear format. If the original data is in u-LAW format, it
+ will be converted.
+
+
+.. method:: AU_read.rewind()
+
+ Rewind the file pointer to the beginning of the audio stream.
+
+The following two methods define a term "position" which is compatible between
+them, and is otherwise implementation dependent.
+
+
+.. method:: AU_read.setpos(pos)
+
+ Set the file pointer to the specified position. Only values returned from
+ :meth:`tell` should be used for *pos*.
+
+
+.. method:: AU_read.tell()
+
+ Return current file pointer position. Note that the returned value has nothing
+ to do with the actual position in the file.
+
+The following two functions are defined for compatibility with the :mod:`aifc`,
+and don't do anything interesting.
+
+
+.. method:: AU_read.getmarkers()
+
+ Returns ``None``.
+
+
+.. method:: AU_read.getmark(id)
+
+ Raise an error.
+
+
+.. _au-write-objects:
+
+AU_write Objects
+----------------
+
+AU_write objects, as returned by :func:`.open` above, have the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: AU_write.setnchannels(n)
+
+ Set the number of channels.
+
+
+.. method:: AU_write.setsampwidth(n)
+
+ Set the sample width (in bytes.)
+
+
+.. method:: AU_write.setframerate(n)
+
+ Set the frame rate.
+
+
+.. method:: AU_write.setnframes(n)
+
+ Set the number of frames. This can be later changed, when and if more frames
+ are written.
+
+
+.. method:: AU_write.setcomptype(type, name)
+
+ Set the compression type and description. Only ``'NONE'`` and ``'ULAW'`` are
+ supported on output.
+
+
+.. method:: AU_write.setparams(tuple)
+
+ The *tuple* should be ``(nchannels, sampwidth, framerate, nframes, comptype,
+ compname)``, with values valid for the :meth:`set\*` methods. Set all
+ parameters.
+
+
+.. method:: AU_write.tell()
+
+ Return current position in the file, with the same disclaimer for the
+ :meth:`AU_read.tell` and :meth:`AU_read.setpos` methods.
+
+
+.. method:: AU_write.writeframesraw(data)
+
+ Write audio frames, without correcting *nframes*.
+
+
+.. method:: AU_write.writeframes(data)
+
+ Write audio frames and make sure *nframes* is correct.
+
+
+.. method:: AU_write.close()
+
+ Make sure *nframes* is correct, and close the file.
+
+ This method is called upon deletion.
+
+Note that it is invalid to set any parameters after calling :meth:`writeframes`
+or :meth:`writeframesraw`.

+===================================================
+
+.. module:: sunaudiodev
+ :platform: SunOS
+ :synopsis: Access to Sun audio hardware.
+ :deprecated:
+
+.. deprecated:: 2.6
+ The :mod:`sunaudiodev` module has been removed in Python 3.
+
+
+
+.. index:: single: u-LAW
+
+This module allows you to access the Sun audio interface. The Sun audio hardware
+is capable of recording and playing back audio data in u-LAW format with a
+sample rate of 8K per second. A full description can be found in the
+:manpage:`audio(7I)` manual page.
+
+.. index:: module: SUNAUDIODEV
+
+The module :mod:`SUNAUDIODEV` defines constants which may be used with this
+module.
+
+This module defines the following variables and functions:
+
+
+.. exception:: error
+
+ This exception is raised on all errors. The argument is a string describing what
+ went wrong.
+
+
+.. function:: open(mode)
+
+ This function opens the audio device and returns a Sun audio device object. This
+ object can then be used to do I/O on. The *mode* parameter is one of ``'r'`` for
+ record-only access, ``'w'`` for play-only access, ``'rw'`` for both and
+ ``'control'`` for access to the control device. Since only one process is
+ allowed to have the recorder or player open at the same time it is a good idea
+ to open the device only for the activity needed. See :manpage:`audio(7I)` for
+ details.
+
+ As per the manpage, this module first looks in the environment variable
+ ``AUDIODEV`` for the base audio device filename. If not found, it falls back to
+ :file:`/dev/audio`. The control device is calculated by appending "ctl" to the
+ base audio device.
+
+
+.. _audio-device-objects:
+
+Audio Device Objects
+--------------------
+
+The audio device objects are returned by :func:`.open` define the following
+methods (except ``control`` objects which only provide :meth:`getinfo`,
+:meth:`setinfo`, :meth:`fileno`, and :meth:`drain`):
+
+
+.. method:: audio device.close()
+
+ This method explicitly closes the device. It is useful in situations where
+ deleting the object does not immediately close it since there are other
+ references to it. A closed device should not be used again.
+
+
+.. method:: audio device.fileno()
+
+ Returns the file descriptor associated with the device. This can be used to set
+ up ``SIGPOLL`` notification, as described below.
+
+
+.. method:: audio device.drain()
+
+ This method waits until all pending output is processed and then returns.
+ Calling this method is often not necessary: destroying the object will
+ automatically close the audio device and this will do an implicit drain.
+
+
+.. method:: audio device.flush()
+
+ This method discards all pending output. It can be used avoid the slow response
+ to a user's stop request (due to buffering of up to one second of sound).
+
+
+.. method:: audio device.getinfo()
+
+ This method retrieves status information like input and output volume, etc. and
+ returns it in the form of an audio status object. This object has no methods but
+ it contains a number of attributes describing the current device status. The
+ names and meanings of the attributes are described in ``<sun/audioio.h>`` and in
+ the :manpage:`audio(7I)` manual page. Member names are slightly different from
+ their C counterparts: a status object is only a single structure. Members of the
+ :c:data:`play` substructure have ``o_`` prepended to their name and members of
+ the :c:data:`record` structure have ``i_``. So, the C member
+ :c:data:`play.sample_rate` is accessed as :attr:`o_sample_rate`,
+ :c:data:`record.gain` as :attr:`i_gain` and :c:data:`monitor_gain` plainly as
+ :attr:`monitor_gain`.
+
+
+.. method:: audio device.ibufcount()
+
+ This method returns the number of samples that are buffered on the recording
+ side, i.e. the program will not block on a :func:`read` call of so many samples.
+
+
+.. method:: audio device.obufcount()
+
+ This method returns the number of samples buffered on the playback side.
+ Unfortunately, this number cannot be used to determine a number of samples that
+ can be written without blocking since the kernel output queue length seems to be
+ variable.
+
+
+.. method:: audio device.read(size)
+
+ This method reads *size* samples from the audio input and returns them as a
+ Python string. The function blocks until enough data is available.
+
+
+.. method:: audio device.setinfo(status)
+
+ This method sets the audio device status parameters. The *status* parameter is
+ an device status object as returned by :func:`getinfo` and possibly modified by
+ the program.
+
+
+.. method:: audio device.write(samples)
+
+ Write is passed a Python string containing audio samples to be played. If there
+ is enough buffer space free it will immediately return, otherwise it will block.
+
+The audio device supports asynchronous notification of various events, through
+the SIGPOLL signal. Here's an example of how you might enable this in Python::
+
+ def handle_sigpoll(signum, frame):
+ print 'I got a SIGPOLL update'
+
+ import fcntl, signal, STROPTS
+
+ signal.signal(signal.SIGPOLL, handle_sigpoll)
+ fcntl.ioctl(audio_obj.fileno(), STROPTS.I_SETSIG, STROPTS.S_MSG)

+
+.. module:: symtable
+ :synopsis: Interface to the compiler's internal symbol tables.
+
+.. moduleauthor:: Jeremy Hylton <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Benjamin Peterson <[email protected]>
+
+
+Symbol tables are generated by the compiler from AST just before bytecode is
+generated. The symbol table is responsible for calculating the scope of every
+identifier in the code. :mod:`symtable` provides an interface to examine these
+tables.
+
+
+Generating Symbol Tables
+------------------------
+
+.. function:: symtable(code, filename, compile_type)
+
+ Return the toplevel :class:`SymbolTable` for the Python source *code*.
+ *filename* is the name of the file containing the code. *compile_type* is
+ like the *mode* argument to :func:`compile`.
+
+
+Examining Symbol Tables
+-----------------------
+
+.. class:: SymbolTable
+
+ A namespace table for a block. The constructor is not public.
+
+ .. method:: get_type()
+
+ Return the type of the symbol table. Possible values are ``'class'``,
+ ``'module'``, and ``'function'``.
+
+ .. method:: get_id()
+
+ Return the table's identifier.
+
+ .. method:: get_name()
+
+ Return the table's name. This is the name of the class if the table is
+ for a class, the name of the function if the table is for a function, or
+ ``'top'`` if the table is global (:meth:`get_type` returns ``'module'``).
+
+ .. method:: get_lineno()
+
+ Return the number of the first line in the block this table represents.
+
+ .. method:: is_optimized()
+
+ Return ``True`` if the locals in this table can be optimized.
+
+ .. method:: is_nested()
+
+ Return ``True`` if the block is a nested class or function.
+
+ .. method:: has_children()
+
+ Return ``True`` if the block has nested namespaces within it. These can
+ be obtained with :meth:`get_children`.
+
+ .. method:: has_exec()

+ >>> table.lookup("some_func").is_namespace()
+ True
+
+ Note that a single name can be bound to multiple objects. If the result
+ is ``True``, the name may also be bound to other objects, like an int or

+ Return a list of namespaces bound to this name.
+
+ .. method:: get_namespace()
+
+ Return the namespace bound to this name. If more than one namespace is

+:mod:`sys` --- System-specific parameters and functions
+=======================================================
+
+.. module:: sys
+ :synopsis: Access system-specific parameters and functions.
+
+
+This module provides access to some variables used or maintained by the
+interpreter and to functions that interact strongly with the interpreter. It is
+always available.
+
+
+.. data:: argv
+
+ The list of command line arguments passed to a Python script. ``argv[0]`` is the
+ script name (it is operating system dependent whether this is a full pathname or
+ not). If the command was executed using the :option:`-c` command line option to
+ the interpreter, ``argv[0]`` is set to the string ``'-c'``. If no script name
+ was passed to the Python interpreter, ``argv[0]`` is the empty string.
+
+ To loop over the standard input, or the list of files given on the
+ command line, see the :mod:`fileinput` module.
+
+
+.. data:: byteorder
+
+ An indicator of the native byte order. This will have the value ``'big'`` on
+ big-endian (most-significant byte first) platforms, and ``'little'`` on
+ little-endian (least-significant byte first) platforms.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+
+.. data:: builtin_module_names
+
+ A tuple of strings giving the names of all modules that are compiled into this
+ Python interpreter. (This information is not available in any other way ---
+ ``modules.keys()`` only lists the imported modules.)
+
+
+.. function:: call_tracing(func, args)
+
+ Call ``func(*args)``, while tracing is enabled. The tracing state is saved,
+ and restored afterwards. This is intended to be called from a debugger from
+ a checkpoint, to recursively debug some other code.
+
+
+.. data:: copyright
+
+ A string containing the copyright pertaining to the Python interpreter.
+
+
+.. function:: _clear_type_cache()
+
+ Clear the internal type cache. The type cache is used to speed up attribute
+ and method lookups. Use the function *only* to drop unnecessary references
+ during reference leak debugging.
+
+ This function should be used for internal and specialized purposes only.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: _current_frames()
+
+ Return a dictionary mapping each thread's identifier to the topmost stack frame
+ currently active in that thread at the time the function is called. Note that
+ functions in the :mod:`traceback` module can build the call stack given such a
+ frame.
+
+ This is most useful for debugging deadlock: this function does not require the
+ deadlocked threads' cooperation, and such threads' call stacks are frozen for as
+ long as they remain deadlocked. The frame returned for a non-deadlocked thread
+ may bear no relationship to that thread's current activity by the time calling
+ code examines the frame.
+
+ This function should be used for internal and specialized purposes only.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. data:: dllhandle
+
+ Integer specifying the handle of the Python DLL. Availability: Windows.
+
+
+.. function:: displayhook(value)
+
+ If *value* is not ``None``, this function prints it to ``sys.stdout``, and saves
+ it in ``__builtin__._``.
+
+ ``sys.displayhook`` is called on the result of evaluating an :term:`expression`
+ entered in an interactive Python session. The display of these values can be
+ customized by assigning another one-argument function to ``sys.displayhook``.
+
+
+.. data:: dont_write_bytecode
+
+ If this is true, Python won't try to write ``.pyc`` or ``.pyo`` files on the
+ import of source modules. This value is initially set to ``True`` or
+ ``False`` depending on the :option:`-B` command line option and the
+ :envvar:`PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE` environment variable, but you can set it
+ yourself to control bytecode file generation.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: excepthook(type, value, traceback)
+
+ This function prints out a given traceback and exception to ``sys.stderr``.
+
+ When an exception is raised and uncaught, the interpreter calls
+ ``sys.excepthook`` with three arguments, the exception class, exception
+ instance, and a traceback object. In an interactive session this happens just
+ before control is returned to the prompt; in a Python program this happens just
+ before the program exits. The handling of such top-level exceptions can be
+ customized by assigning another three-argument function to ``sys.excepthook``.
+
+
+.. data:: __displayhook__
+ __excepthook__
+
+ These objects contain the original values of ``displayhook`` and ``excepthook``
+ at the start of the program. They are saved so that ``displayhook`` and
+ ``excepthook`` can be restored in case they happen to get replaced with broken
+ objects.
+
+
+.. function:: exc_info()
+
+ This function returns a tuple of three values that give information about the
+ exception that is currently being handled. The information returned is specific
+ both to the current thread and to the current stack frame. If the current stack
+ frame is not handling an exception, the information is taken from the calling
+ stack frame, or its caller, and so on until a stack frame is found that is
+ handling an exception. Here, "handling an exception" is defined as "executing
+ or having executed an except clause." For any stack frame, only information
+ about the most recently handled exception is accessible.
+
+ .. index:: object: traceback
+
+ If no exception is being handled anywhere on the stack, a tuple containing three
+ ``None`` values is returned. Otherwise, the values returned are ``(type, value,
+ traceback)``. Their meaning is: *type* gets the exception type of the exception
+ being handled (a class object); *value* gets the exception parameter (its
+ :dfn:`associated value` or the second argument to :keyword:`raise`, which is
+ always a class instance if the exception type is a class object); *traceback*
+ gets a traceback object (see the Reference Manual) which encapsulates the call
+ stack at the point where the exception originally occurred.
+
+ If :func:`exc_clear` is called, this function will return three ``None`` values
+ until either another exception is raised in the current thread or the execution
+ stack returns to a frame where another exception is being handled.
+
+ .. warning::
+
+ Assigning the *traceback* return value to a local variable in a function that is
+ handling an exception will cause a circular reference. This will prevent
+ anything referenced by a local variable in the same function or by the traceback
+ from being garbage collected. Since most functions don't need access to the
+ traceback, the best solution is to use something like ``exctype, value =
+ sys.exc_info()[:2]`` to extract only the exception type and value. If you do
+ need the traceback, make sure to delete it after use (best done with a
+ :keyword:`try` ... :keyword:`finally` statement) or to call :func:`exc_info` in
+ a function that does not itself handle an exception.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Beginning with Python 2.2, such cycles are automatically reclaimed when garbage
+ collection is enabled and they become unreachable, but it remains more efficient
+ to avoid creating cycles.
+
+
+.. function:: exc_clear()
+
+ This function clears all information relating to the current or last exception
+ that occurred in the current thread. After calling this function,
+ :func:`exc_info` will return three ``None`` values until another exception is
+ raised in the current thread or the execution stack returns to a frame where
+ another exception is being handled.
+
+ This function is only needed in only a few obscure situations. These include
+ logging and error handling systems that report information on the last or
+ current exception. This function can also be used to try to free resources and
+ trigger object finalization, though no guarantee is made as to what objects will
+ be freed, if any.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. data:: exc_type
+ exc_value
+ exc_traceback
+
+ .. deprecated:: 1.5
+ Use :func:`exc_info` instead.
+
+ Since they are global variables, they are not specific to the current thread, so
+ their use is not safe in a multi-threaded program. When no exception is being
+ handled, ``exc_type`` is set to ``None`` and the other two are undefined.
+
+
+.. data:: exec_prefix
+
+ A string giving the site-specific directory prefix where the platform-dependent
+ Python files are installed; by default, this is also ``'/usr/local'``. This can
+ be set at build time with the ``--exec-prefix`` argument to the
+ :program:`configure` script. Specifically, all configuration files (e.g. the
+ :file:`pyconfig.h` header file) are installed in the directory
+ :file:`{exec_prefix}/lib/python{X.Y}/config`, and shared library modules are
+ installed in :file:`{exec_prefix}/lib/python{X.Y}/lib-dynload`, where *X.Y*
+ is the version number of Python, for example ``2.7``.
+
+
+.. data:: executable
+
+ A string giving the absolute path of the executable binary for the Python
+ interpreter, on systems where this makes sense. If Python is unable to retrieve
+ the real path to its executable, :data:`sys.executable` will be an empty string
+ or ``None``.
+
+
+.. function:: exit([arg])
+
+ Exit from Python. This is implemented by raising the :exc:`SystemExit`
+ exception, so cleanup actions specified by finally clauses of :keyword:`try`
+ statements are honored, and it is possible to intercept the exit attempt at
+ an outer level.
+
+ The optional argument *arg* can be an integer giving the exit status
+ (defaulting to zero), or another type of object. If it is an integer, zero
+ is considered "successful termination" and any nonzero value is considered
+ "abnormal termination" by shells and the like. Most systems require it to be
+ in the range 0-127, and produce undefined results otherwise. Some systems
+ have a convention for assigning specific meanings to specific exit codes, but
+ these are generally underdeveloped; Unix programs generally use 2 for command
+ line syntax errors and 1 for all other kind of errors. If another type of
+ object is passed, ``None`` is equivalent to passing zero, and any other
+ object is printed to :data:`stderr` and results in an exit code of 1. In
+ particular, ``sys.exit("some error message")`` is a quick way to exit a
+ program when an error occurs.
+
+ Since :func:`exit` ultimately "only" raises an exception, it will only exit
+ the process when called from the main thread, and the exception is not
+ intercepted.
+
+
+.. data:: exitfunc
+
+ This value is not actually defined by the module, but can be set by the user (or
+ by a program) to specify a clean-up action at program exit. When set, it should
+ be a parameterless function. This function will be called when the interpreter
+ exits. Only one function may be installed in this way; to allow multiple
+ functions which will be called at termination, use the :mod:`atexit` module.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ The exit function is not called when the program is killed by a signal, when a
+ Python fatal internal error is detected, or when ``os._exit()`` is called.
+
+ .. deprecated:: 2.4
+ Use :mod:`atexit` instead.
+
+
+.. data:: flags
+
+ The struct sequence *flags* exposes the status of command line flags. The
+ attributes are read only.

+ +---------------------+----------------+--------------------------------------------------+
+
+ The attribute :attr:`sys.float_info.dig` needs further explanation. If
+ ``s`` is any string representing a decimal number with at most
+ :attr:`sys.float_info.dig` significant digits, then converting ``s`` to a
+ float and back again will recover a string representing the same decimal
+ value::
+
+ >>> import sys
+ >>> sys.float_info.dig
+ 15
+ >>> s = '3.14159265358979' # decimal string with 15 significant digits
+ >>> format(float(s), '.15g') # convert to float and back -> same value
+ '3.14159265358979'
+
+ But for strings with more than :attr:`sys.float_info.dig` significant digits,
+ this isn't always true::
+
+ >>> s = '9876543211234567' # 16 significant digits is too many!
+ >>> format(float(s), '.16g') # conversion changes value
+ '9876543211234568'
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+.. data:: float_repr_style
+
+ A string indicating how the :func:`repr` function behaves for
+ floats. If the string has value ``'short'`` then for a finite
+ float ``x``, ``repr(x)`` aims to produce a short string with the
+ property that ``float(repr(x)) == x``. This is the usual behaviour
+ in Python 2.7 and later. Otherwise, ``float_repr_style`` has value
+ ``'legacy'`` and ``repr(x)`` behaves in the same way as it did in
+ versions of Python prior to 2.7.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+.. function:: getcheckinterval()
+
+ Return the interpreter's "check interval"; see :func:`setcheckinterval`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. function:: getdefaultencoding()
+
+ Return the name of the current default string encoding used by the Unicode
+ implementation.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+
+.. function:: getdlopenflags()
+
+ Return the current value of the flags that are used for :c:func:`dlopen` calls.
+ The flag constants are defined in the :mod:`dl` and :mod:`DLFCN` modules.
+ Availability: Unix.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+
+.. function:: getfilesystemencoding()
+
+ Return the name of the encoding used to convert Unicode filenames into system
+ file names, or ``None`` if the system default encoding is used. The result value
+ depends on the operating system:
+
+ * On Mac OS X, the encoding is ``'utf-8'``.
+
+ * On Unix, the encoding is the user's preference according to the result of
+ nl_langinfo(CODESET), or ``None`` if the ``nl_langinfo(CODESET)``
+ failed.
+
+ * On Windows NT+, file names are Unicode natively, so no conversion is
+ performed. :func:`getfilesystemencoding` still returns ``'mbcs'``, as
+ this is the encoding that applications should use when they explicitly
+ want to convert Unicode strings to byte strings that are equivalent when
+ used as file names.
+
+ * On Windows 9x, the encoding is ``'mbcs'``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. function:: getrefcount(object)
+
+ Return the reference count of the *object*. The count returned is generally one
+ higher than you might expect, because it includes the (temporary) reference as
+ an argument to :func:`getrefcount`.
+
+
+.. function:: getrecursionlimit()
+
+ Return the current value of the recursion limit, the maximum depth of the Python
+ interpreter stack. This limit prevents infinite recursion from causing an
+ overflow of the C stack and crashing Python. It can be set by
+ :func:`setrecursionlimit`.
+
+
+.. function:: getsizeof(object[, default])
+
+ Return the size of an object in bytes. The object can be any type of
+ object. All built-in objects will return correct results, but this
+ does not have to hold true for third-party extensions as it is implementation
+ specific.
+
+ If given, *default* will be returned if the object does not provide means to
+ retrieve the size. Otherwise a :exc:`TypeError` will be raised.
+
+ :func:`getsizeof` calls the object's ``__sizeof__`` method and adds an
+ additional garbage collector overhead if the object is managed by the garbage
+ collector.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: _getframe([depth])
+
+ Return a frame object from the call stack. If optional integer *depth* is
+ given, return the frame object that many calls below the top of the stack. If
+ that is deeper than the call stack, :exc:`ValueError` is raised. The default
+ for *depth* is zero, returning the frame at the top of the call stack.
+
+ .. impl-detail::
+
+ This function should be used for internal and specialized purposes only.
+ It is not guaranteed to exist in all implementations of Python.
+
+
+.. function:: getprofile()
+
+ .. index::
+ single: profile function
+ single: profiler
+
+ Get the profiler function as set by :func:`setprofile`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: gettrace()
+
+ .. index::
+ single: trace function
+ single: debugger
+
+ Get the trace function as set by :func:`settrace`.
+
+ .. impl-detail::
+
+ The :func:`gettrace` function is intended only for implementing debuggers,
+ profilers, coverage tools and the like. Its behavior is part of the
+ implementation platform, rather than part of the language definition, and
+ thus may not be available in all Python implementations.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: getwindowsversion()
+
+ Return a named tuple describing the Windows version
+ currently running. The named elements are *major*, *minor*,
+ *build*, *platform*, *service_pack*, *service_pack_minor*,
+ *service_pack_major*, *suite_mask*, and *product_type*.
+ *service_pack* contains a string while all other values are
+ integers. The components can also be accessed by name, so
+ ``sys.getwindowsversion()[0]`` is equivalent to
+ ``sys.getwindowsversion().major``. For compatibility with prior
+ versions, only the first 5 elements are retrievable by indexing.
+
+ *platform* may be one of the following values:
+
+ +-----------------------------------------+-------------------------+
+ | Constant | Platform |
+ +=========================================+=========================+
+ | :const:`0 (VER_PLATFORM_WIN32s)` | Win32s on Windows 3.1 |

+ +-----------------------------------------+-------------------------+
+ | :const:`3 (VER_PLATFORM_WIN32_CE)` | Windows CE |
+ +-----------------------------------------+-------------------------+
+
+ *product_type* may be one of the following values:
+
+ +---------------------------------------+---------------------------------+
+ | Constant | Meaning |
+ +=======================================+=================================+
+ | :const:`1 (VER_NT_WORKSTATION)` | The system is a workstation. |

+ +---------------------------------------+---------------------------------+
+ | :const:`3 (VER_NT_SERVER)` | The system is a server, but not |
+ | | a domain controller. |
+ +---------------------------------------+---------------------------------+
+
+
+ This function wraps the Win32 :c:func:`GetVersionEx` function; see the
+ Microsoft documentation on :c:func:`OSVERSIONINFOEX` for more information
+ about these fields.
+
+ Availability: Windows.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ Changed to a named tuple and added *service_pack_minor*,
+ *service_pack_major*, *suite_mask*, and *product_type*.
+
+
+.. data:: hexversion
+
+ The version number encoded as a single integer. This is guaranteed to increase
+ with each version, including proper support for non-production releases. For
+ example, to test that the Python interpreter is at least version 1.5.2, use::
+
+ if sys.hexversion >= 0x010502F0:
+ # use some advanced feature
+ ...
+ else:
+ # use an alternative implementation or warn the user
+ ...
+
+ This is called ``hexversion`` since it only really looks meaningful when viewed
+ as the result of passing it to the built-in :func:`hex` function. The
+ ``version_info`` value may be used for a more human-friendly encoding of the
+ same information.
+
+ The ``hexversion`` is a 32-bit number with the following layout:

+
+ .. versionadded:: 1.5.2
+
+
+.. data:: long_info
+
+ A struct sequence that holds information about Python's
+ internal representation of integers. The attributes are read only.
+
+ .. tabularcolumns:: |l|L|
+
+ +-------------------------+----------------------------------------------+
+ | Attribute | Explanation |
+ +=========================+==============================================+
+ | :const:`bits_per_digit` | number of bits held in each digit. Python |
+ | | integers are stored internally in base |
+ | | ``2**long_info.bits_per_digit`` |
+ +-------------------------+----------------------------------------------+
+ | :const:`sizeof_digit` | size in bytes of the C type used to |
+ | | represent a digit |
+ +-------------------------+----------------------------------------------+
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+.. data:: last_type
+ last_value
+ last_traceback
+
+ These three variables are not always defined; they are set when an exception is
+ not handled and the interpreter prints an error message and a stack traceback.
+ Their intended use is to allow an interactive user to import a debugger module
+ and engage in post-mortem debugging without having to re-execute the command
+ that caused the error. (Typical use is ``import pdb; pdb.pm()`` to enter the
+ post-mortem debugger; see chapter :ref:`debugger` for
+ more information.)
+
+ The meaning of the variables is the same as that of the return values from
+ :func:`exc_info` above. (Since there is only one interactive thread,
+ thread-safety is not a concern for these variables, unlike for ``exc_type``
+ etc.)
+
+
+.. data:: maxint
+
+ The largest positive integer supported by Python's regular integer type. This
+ is at least 2\*\*31-1. The largest negative integer is ``-maxint-1`` --- the
+ asymmetry results from the use of 2's complement binary arithmetic.
+
+.. data:: maxsize
+
+ The largest positive integer supported by the platform's Py_ssize_t type,
+ and thus the maximum size lists, strings, dicts, and many other containers
+ can have.
+
+.. data:: maxunicode
+
+ An integer giving the largest supported code point for a Unicode character. The
+ value of this depends on the configuration option that specifies whether Unicode
+ characters are stored as UCS-2 or UCS-4.
+
+
+.. data:: meta_path
+
+ A list of :term:`finder` objects that have their :meth:`find_module`
+ methods called to see if one of the objects can find the module to be
+ imported. The :meth:`find_module` method is called at least with the
+ absolute name of the module being imported. If the module to be imported is
+ contained in package then the parent package's :attr:`__path__` attribute
+ is passed in as a second argument. The method returns ``None`` if
+ the module cannot be found, else returns a :term:`loader`.
+
+ :data:`sys.meta_path` is searched before any implicit default finders or
+ :data:`sys.path`.
+
+ See :pep:`302` for the original specification.
+
+
+.. data:: modules
+
+ .. index:: builtin: reload
+
+ This is a dictionary that maps module names to modules which have already been
+ loaded. This can be manipulated to force reloading of modules and other tricks.
+ Note that removing a module from this dictionary is *not* the same as calling
+ :func:`reload` on the corresponding module object.
+
+
+.. data:: path
+
+ .. index:: triple: module; search; path
+
+ A list of strings that specifies the search path for modules. Initialized from
+ the environment variable :envvar:`PYTHONPATH`, plus an installation-dependent
+ default.
+
+ As initialized upon program startup, the first item of this list, ``path[0]``,
+ is the directory containing the script that was used to invoke the Python
+ interpreter. If the script directory is not available (e.g. if the interpreter
+ is invoked interactively or if the script is read from standard input),
+ ``path[0]`` is the empty string, which directs Python to search modules in the
+ current directory first. Notice that the script directory is inserted *before*
+ the entries inserted as a result of :envvar:`PYTHONPATH`.
+
+ A program is free to modify this list for its own purposes.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ Unicode strings are no longer ignored.
+
+ .. seealso::
+ Module :mod:`site` This describes how to use .pth files to extend
+ :data:`sys.path`.
+
+
+.. data:: path_hooks
+
+ A list of callables that take a path argument to try to create a
+ :term:`finder` for the path. If a finder can be created, it is to be
+ returned by the callable, else raise :exc:`ImportError`.
+
+ Originally specified in :pep:`302`.
+
+
+.. data:: path_importer_cache
+
+ A dictionary acting as a cache for :term:`finder` objects. The keys are
+ paths that have been passed to :data:`sys.path_hooks` and the values are
+ the finders that are found. If a path is a valid file system path but no
+ explicit finder is found on :data:`sys.path_hooks` then ``None`` is
+ stored to represent the implicit default finder should be used. If the path
+ is not an existing path then :class:`imp.NullImporter` is set.
+
+ Originally specified in :pep:`302`.
+
+
+.. data:: platform
+
+ This string contains a platform identifier that can be used to append
+ platform-specific components to :data:`sys.path`, for instance.
+
+ For most Unix systems, this is the lowercased OS name as returned by ``uname
+ -s`` with the first part of the version as returned by ``uname -r`` appended,
+ e.g. ``'sunos5'``, *at the time when Python was built*. Unless you want to
+ test for a specific system version, it is therefore recommended to use the
+ following idiom::
+
+ if sys.platform.startswith('freebsd'):
+ # FreeBSD-specific code here...
+ elif sys.platform.startswith('linux'):
+ # Linux-specific code here...
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7.3
+ Since lots of code check for ``sys.platform == 'linux2'``, and there is
+ no essential change between Linux 2.x and 3.x, ``sys.platform`` is always
+ set to ``'linux2'``, even on Linux 3.x. In Python 3.3 and later, the
+ value will always be set to ``'linux'``, so it is recommended to always
+ use the ``startswith`` idiom presented above.
+
+ For other systems, the values are:
+
+ ===================== ===========================
+ System :data:`platform` value
+ ===================== ===========================
+ Linux (2.x *and* 3.x) ``'linux2'``
+ Windows ``'win32'``
+ Windows/Cygwin ``'cygwin'``
+ Mac OS X ``'darwin'``
+ OS/2 ``'os2'``
+ OS/2 EMX ``'os2emx'``
+ RiscOS ``'riscos'``
+ AtheOS ``'atheos'``
+ ===================== ===========================
+
+ .. seealso::
+ :attr:`os.name` has a coarser granularity. :func:`os.uname` gives
+ system-dependent version information.
+
+ The :mod:`platform` module provides detailed checks for the
+ system's identity.
+
+.. data:: prefix
+
+ A string giving the site-specific directory prefix where the platform
+ independent Python files are installed; by default, this is the string
+ ``'/usr/local'``. This can be set at build time with the ``--prefix``
+ argument to the :program:`configure` script. The main collection of Python
+ library modules is installed in the directory :file:`{prefix}/lib/python{X.Y}`
+ while the platform independent header files (all except :file:`pyconfig.h`) are
+ stored in :file:`{prefix}/include/python{X.Y}`, where *X.Y* is the version
+ number of Python, for example ``2.7``.
+
+
+.. data:: ps1
+ ps2
+
+ .. index::
+ single: interpreter prompts
+ single: prompts, interpreter
+
+ Strings specifying the primary and secondary prompt of the interpreter. These
+ are only defined if the interpreter is in interactive mode. Their initial
+ values in this case are ``'>>> '`` and ``'... '``. If a non-string object is
+ assigned to either variable, its :func:`str` is re-evaluated each time the
+ interpreter prepares to read a new interactive command; this can be used to
+ implement a dynamic prompt.
+
+
+.. data:: py3kwarning
+
+ Bool containing the status of the Python 3 warning flag. It's ``True``
+ when Python is started with the -3 option. (This should be considered
+ read-only; setting it to a different value doesn't have an effect on
+ Python 3 warnings.)
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: setcheckinterval(interval)
+
+ Set the interpreter's "check interval". This integer value determines how often
+ the interpreter checks for periodic things such as thread switches and signal
+ handlers. The default is ``100``, meaning the check is performed every 100
+ Python virtual instructions. Setting it to a larger value may increase
+ performance for programs using threads. Setting it to a value ``<=`` 0 checks
+ every virtual instruction, maximizing responsiveness as well as overhead.
+
+
+.. function:: setdefaultencoding(name)
+
+ Set the current default string encoding used by the Unicode implementation. If
+ *name* does not match any available encoding, :exc:`LookupError` is raised.
+ This function is only intended to be used by the :mod:`site` module
+ implementation and, where needed, by :mod:`sitecustomize`. Once used by the
+ :mod:`site` module, it is removed from the :mod:`sys` module's namespace.
+
+ .. Note that :mod:`site` is not imported if the :option:`-S` option is passed
+ to the interpreter, in which case this function will remain available.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+
+.. function:: setdlopenflags(n)
+
+ Set the flags used by the interpreter for :c:func:`dlopen` calls, such as when
+ the interpreter loads extension modules. Among other things, this will enable a
+ lazy resolving of symbols when importing a module, if called as
+ ``sys.setdlopenflags(0)``. To share symbols across extension modules, call as
+ ``sys.setdlopenflags(dl.RTLD_NOW | dl.RTLD_GLOBAL)``. Symbolic names for the
+ flag modules can be either found in the :mod:`dl` module, or in the :mod:`DLFCN`
+ module. If :mod:`DLFCN` is not available, it can be generated from
+ :file:`/usr/include/dlfcn.h` using the :program:`h2py` script. Availability:
+ Unix.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+
+.. function:: setprofile(profilefunc)
+
+ .. index::
+ single: profile function
+ single: profiler
+
+ Set the system's profile function, which allows you to implement a Python source
+ code profiler in Python. See chapter :ref:`profile` for more information on the
+ Python profiler. The system's profile function is called similarly to the
+ system's trace function (see :func:`settrace`), but it isn't called for each
+ executed line of code (only on call and return, but the return event is reported
+ even when an exception has been set). The function is thread-specific, but
+ there is no way for the profiler to know about context switches between threads,
+ so it does not make sense to use this in the presence of multiple threads. Also,
+ its return value is not used, so it can simply return ``None``.
+
+
+.. function:: setrecursionlimit(limit)
+
+ Set the maximum depth of the Python interpreter stack to *limit*. This limit
+ prevents infinite recursion from causing an overflow of the C stack and crashing
+ Python.
+
+ The highest possible limit is platform-dependent. A user may need to set the
+ limit higher when she has a program that requires deep recursion and a platform
+ that supports a higher limit. This should be done with care, because a too-high
+ limit can lead to a crash.
+
+
+.. function:: settrace(tracefunc)
+
+ .. index::
+ single: trace function
+ single: debugger
+
+ Set the system's trace function, which allows you to implement a Python
+ source code debugger in Python. The function is thread-specific; for a
+ debugger to support multiple threads, it must be registered using
+ :func:`settrace` for each thread being debugged.
+
+ Trace functions should have three arguments: *frame*, *event*, and
+ *arg*. *frame* is the current stack frame. *event* is a string: ``'call'``,
+ ``'line'``, ``'return'``, ``'exception'``, ``'c_call'``, ``'c_return'``, or
+ ``'c_exception'``. *arg* depends on the event type.
+
+ The trace function is invoked (with *event* set to ``'call'``) whenever a new
+ local scope is entered; it should return a reference to a local trace
+ function to be used that scope, or ``None`` if the scope shouldn't be traced.
+
+ The local trace function should return a reference to itself (or to another
+ function for further tracing in that scope), or ``None`` to turn off tracing
+ in that scope.
+
+ The events have the following meaning:
+
+ ``'call'``
+ A function is called (or some other code block entered). The
+ global trace function is called; *arg* is ``None``; the return value
+ specifies the local trace function.
+
+ ``'line'``
+ The interpreter is about to execute a new line of code or re-execute the
+ condition of a loop. The local trace function is called; *arg* is
+ ``None``; the return value specifies the new local trace function. See
+ :file:`Objects/lnotab_notes.txt` for a detailed explanation of how this
+ works.
+
+ ``'return'``
+ A function (or other code block) is about to return. The local trace
+ function is called; *arg* is the value that will be returned, or ``None``
+ if the event is caused by an exception being raised. The trace function's
+ return value is ignored.
+
+ ``'exception'``
+ An exception has occurred. The local trace function is called; *arg* is a
+ tuple ``(exception, value, traceback)``; the return value specifies the
+ new local trace function.
+
+ ``'c_call'``
+ A C function is about to be called. This may be an extension function or
+ a built-in. *arg* is the C function object.
+
+ ``'c_return'``
+ A C function has returned. *arg* is the C function object.
+
+ ``'c_exception'``
+ A C function has raised an exception. *arg* is the C function object.
+
+ Note that as an exception is propagated down the chain of callers, an
+ ``'exception'`` event is generated at each level.
+
+ For more information on code and frame objects, refer to :ref:`types`.
+
+ .. impl-detail::
+
+ The :func:`settrace` function is intended only for implementing debuggers,
+ profilers, coverage tools and the like. Its behavior is part of the
+ implementation platform, rather than part of the language definition, and
+ thus may not be available in all Python implementations.
+
+
+.. function:: settscdump(on_flag)
+
+ Activate dumping of VM measurements using the Pentium timestamp counter, if
+ *on_flag* is true. Deactivate these dumps if *on_flag* is off. The function is
+ available only if Python was compiled with ``--with-tsc``. To understand
+ the output of this dump, read :file:`Python/ceval.c` in the Python sources.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+ .. impl-detail::
+
+ This function is intimately bound to CPython implementation details and
+ thus not likely to be implemented elsewhere.
+
+
+.. data:: stdin
+ stdout
+ stderr
+
+ .. index::
+ builtin: input
+ builtin: raw_input
+
+ File objects corresponding to the interpreter's standard input, output and error
+ streams. ``stdin`` is used for all interpreter input except for scripts but
+ including calls to :func:`input` and :func:`raw_input`. ``stdout`` is used for
+ the output of :keyword:`print` and :term:`expression` statements and for the
+ prompts of :func:`input` and :func:`raw_input`. The interpreter's own prompts
+ and (almost all of) its error messages go to ``stderr``. ``stdout`` and
+ ``stderr`` needn't be built-in file objects: any object is acceptable as long
+ as it has a :meth:`write` method that takes a string argument. (Changing these
+ objects doesn't affect the standard I/O streams of processes executed by
+ :func:`os.popen`, :func:`os.system` or the :func:`exec\*` family of functions in
+ the :mod:`os` module.)
+
+
+.. data:: __stdin__
+ __stdout__
+ __stderr__
+
+ These objects contain the original values of ``stdin``, ``stderr`` and
+ ``stdout`` at the start of the program. They are used during finalization,
+ and could be useful to print to the actual standard stream no matter if the
+ ``sys.std*`` object has been redirected.
+
+ It can also be used to restore the actual files to known working file objects
+ in case they have been overwritten with a broken object. However, the
+ preferred way to do this is to explicitly save the previous stream before
+ replacing it, and restore the saved object.
+
+
+.. data:: subversion
+
+ A triple (repo, branch, version) representing the Subversion information of the
+ Python interpreter. *repo* is the name of the repository, ``'CPython'``.
+ *branch* is a string of one of the forms ``'trunk'``, ``'branches/name'`` or
+ ``'tags/name'``. *version* is the output of ``svnversion``, if the interpreter
+ was built from a Subversion checkout; it contains the revision number (range)
+ and possibly a trailing 'M' if there were local modifications. If the tree was
+ exported (or svnversion was not available), it is the revision of
+ ``Include/patchlevel.h`` if the branch is a tag. Otherwise, it is ``None``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+ .. note::
+ Python is now `developed <http://docs.python.org/devguide/>`_ using
+ Mercurial. In recent Python 2.7 bugfix releases, :data:`subversion`
+ therefore contains placeholder information. It is removed in Python
+ 3.3.
+
+
+.. data:: tracebacklimit
+
+ When this variable is set to an integer value, it determines the maximum number
+ of levels of traceback information printed when an unhandled exception occurs.
+ The default is ``1000``. When set to ``0`` or less, all traceback information
+ is suppressed and only the exception type and value are printed.
+
+
+.. data:: version
+
+ A string containing the version number of the Python interpreter plus additional
+ information on the build number and compiler used. This string is displayed
+ when the interactive interpreter is started. Do not extract version information
+ out of it, rather, use :data:`version_info` and the functions provided by the
+ :mod:`platform` module.
+
+
+.. data:: api_version
+
+ The C API version for this interpreter. Programmers may find this useful when
+ debugging version conflicts between Python and extension modules.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. data:: version_info
+
+ A tuple containing the five components of the version number: *major*, *minor*,
+ *micro*, *releaselevel*, and *serial*. All values except *releaselevel* are
+ integers; the release level is ``'alpha'``, ``'beta'``, ``'candidate'``, or
+ ``'final'``. The ``version_info`` value corresponding to the Python version 2.0
+ is ``(2, 0, 0, 'final', 0)``. The components can also be accessed by name,
+ so ``sys.version_info[0]`` is equivalent to ``sys.version_info.major``
+ and so on.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.0
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ Added named component attributes
+
+
+.. data:: warnoptions
+
+ This is an implementation detail of the warnings framework; do not modify this
+ value. Refer to the :mod:`warnings` module for more information on the warnings
+ framework.
+
+
+.. data:: winver
+
+ The version number used to form registry keys on Windows platforms. This is
+ stored as string resource 1000 in the Python DLL. The value is normally the
+ first three characters of :const:`version`. It is provided in the :mod:`sys`
+ module for informational purposes; modifying this value has no effect on the
+ registry keys used by Python. Availability: Windows.

+.. sectionauthor:: Tarek Ziade <[email protected]>
+.. index::
+ single: configuration information
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/sysconfig.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`sysconfig` module provides access to Python's configuration
+information like the list of installation paths and the configuration variables
+relevant for the current platform.
+
+Configuration variables
+-----------------------
+
+A Python distribution contains a :file:`Makefile` and a :file:`pyconfig.h`
+header file that are necessary to build both the Python binary itself and
+third-party C extensions compiled using :mod:`distutils`.
+
+:mod:`sysconfig` puts all variables found in these files in a dictionary that
+can be accessed using :func:`get_config_vars` or :func:`get_config_var`.
+
+Notice that on Windows, it's a much smaller set.
+
+.. function:: get_config_vars(\*args)
+
+ With no arguments, return a dictionary of all configuration variables
+ relevant for the current platform.
+
+ With arguments, return a list of values that result from looking up each
+ argument in the configuration variable dictionary.
+
+ For each argument, if the value is not found, return ``None``.
+
+
+.. function:: get_config_var(name)
+
+ Return the value of a single variable *name*. Equivalent to
+ ``get_config_vars().get(name)``.
+
+ If *name* is not found, return ``None``.
+
+Example of usage::
+
+ >>> import sysconfig
+ >>> sysconfig.get_config_var('Py_ENABLE_SHARED')
+ 0
+ >>> sysconfig.get_config_var('LIBDIR')
+ '/usr/local/lib'
+ >>> sysconfig.get_config_vars('AR', 'CXX')
+ ['ar', 'g++']
+
+
+Installation paths
+------------------
+
+Python uses an installation scheme that differs depending on the platform and on
+the installation options. These schemes are stored in :mod:`sysconfig` under
+unique identifiers based on the value returned by :const:`os.name`.
+
+Every new component that is installed using :mod:`distutils` or a
+Distutils-based system will follow the same scheme to copy its file in the right
+places.
+
+Python currently supports seven schemes:
+
+- *posix_prefix*: scheme for Posix platforms like Linux or Mac OS X. This is
+ the default scheme used when Python or a component is installed.
+- *posix_home*: scheme for Posix platforms used when a *home* option is used
+ upon installation. This scheme is used when a component is installed through
+ Distutils with a specific home prefix.
+- *posix_user*: scheme for Posix platforms used when a component is installed
+ through Distutils and the *user* option is used. This scheme defines paths
+ located under the user home directory.
+- *nt*: scheme for NT platforms like Windows.
+- *nt_user*: scheme for NT platforms, when the *user* option is used.
+- *os2*: scheme for OS/2 platforms.
+- *os2_home*: scheme for OS/2 patforms, when the *user* option is used.
+
+Each scheme is itself composed of a series of paths and each path has a unique
+identifier. Python currently uses eight paths:
+
+- *stdlib*: directory containing the standard Python library files that are not
+ platform-specific.
+- *platstdlib*: directory containing the standard Python library files that are
+ platform-specific.
+- *platlib*: directory for site-specific, platform-specific files.
+- *purelib*: directory for site-specific, non-platform-specific files.
+- *include*: directory for non-platform-specific header files.
+- *platinclude*: directory for platform-specific header files.
+- *scripts*: directory for script files.
+- *data*: directory for data files.
+
+:mod:`sysconfig` provides some functions to determine these paths.
+
+.. function:: get_scheme_names()
+
+ Return a tuple containing all schemes currently supported in
+ :mod:`sysconfig`.
+
+
+.. function:: get_path_names()
+
+ Return a tuple containing all path names currently supported in
+ :mod:`sysconfig`.
+
+
+.. function:: get_path(name, [scheme, [vars, [expand]]])
+
+ Return an installation path corresponding to the path *name*, from the
+ install scheme named *scheme*.
+
+ *name* has to be a value from the list returned by :func:`get_path_names`.
+
+ :mod:`sysconfig` stores installation paths corresponding to each path name,
+ for each platform, with variables to be expanded. For instance the *stdlib*
+ path for the *nt* scheme is: ``{base}/Lib``.
+
+ :func:`get_path` will use the variables returned by :func:`get_config_vars`
+ to expand the path. All variables have default values for each platform so
+ one may call this function and get the default value.
+
+ If *scheme* is provided, it must be a value from the list returned by
+ :func:`get_scheme_names`. Otherwise, the default scheme for the current
+ platform is used.
+
+ If *vars* is provided, it must be a dictionary of variables that will update
+ the dictionary return by :func:`get_config_vars`.
+
+ If *expand* is set to ``False``, the path will not be expanded using the
+ variables.
+
+ If *name* is not found, return ``None``.
+
+
+.. function:: get_paths([scheme, [vars, [expand]]])
+
+ Return a dictionary containing all installation paths corresponding to an
+ installation scheme. See :func:`get_path` for more information.
+
+ If *scheme* is not provided, will use the default scheme for the current
+ platform.
+
+ If *vars* is provided, it must be a dictionary of variables that will
+ update the dictionary used to expand the paths.
+
+ If *expand* is set to False, the paths will not be expanded.
+
+ If *scheme* is not an existing scheme, :func:`get_paths` will raise a
+ :exc:`KeyError`.
+
+
+Other functions
+---------------
+
+.. function:: get_python_version()
+
+ Return the ``MAJOR.MINOR`` Python version number as a string. Similar to
+ ``sys.version[:3]``.
+
+
+.. function:: get_platform()
+
+ Return a string that identifies the current platform.
+
+ This is used mainly to distinguish platform-specific build directories and
+ platform-specific built distributions. Typically includes the OS name and
+ version and the architecture (as supplied by :func:`os.uname`), although the
+ exact information included depends on the OS; e.g. for IRIX the architecture
+ isn't particularly important (IRIX only runs on SGI hardware), but for Linux
+ the kernel version isn't particularly important.
+
+ Examples of returned values:
+
+ - linux-i586
+ - linux-alpha (?)
+ - solaris-2.6-sun4u
+ - irix-5.3
+ - irix64-6.2
+
+ Windows will return one of:
+
+ - win-amd64 (64bit Windows on AMD64 (aka x86_64, Intel64, EM64T, etc)
+ - win-ia64 (64bit Windows on Itanium)
+ - win32 (all others - specifically, sys.platform is returned)
+
+ Mac OS X can return:

+:mod:`syslog` --- Unix syslog library routines
+==============================================
+
+.. module:: syslog
+ :platform: Unix
+ :synopsis: An interface to the Unix syslog library routines.
+
+
+This module provides an interface to the Unix ``syslog`` library routines.
+Refer to the Unix manual pages for a detailed description of the ``syslog``
+facility.
+
+This module wraps the system ``syslog`` family of routines. A pure Python
+library that can speak to a syslog server is available in the
+:mod:`logging.handlers` module as :class:`SysLogHandler`.
+
+The module defines the following functions:
+
+
+.. function:: syslog(message)
+ syslog(priority, message)
+
+ Send the string *message* to the system logger. A trailing newline is added
+ if necessary. Each message is tagged with a priority composed of a
+ *facility* and a *level*. The optional *priority* argument, which defaults
+ to :const:`LOG_INFO`, determines the message priority. If the facility is
+ not encoded in *priority* using logical-or (``LOG_INFO | LOG_USER``), the
+ value given in the :func:`openlog` call is used.
+
+ If :func:`openlog` has not been called prior to the call to :func:`syslog`,
+ ``openlog()`` will be called with no arguments.
+
+
+.. function:: openlog([ident[, logoption[, facility]]])
+
+ Logging options of subsequent :func:`syslog` calls can be set by calling
+ :func:`openlog`. :func:`syslog` will call :func:`openlog` with no arguments
+ if the log is not currently open.
+
+ The optional *ident* keyword argument is a string which is prepended to every
+ message, and defaults to ``sys.argv[0]`` with leading path components
+ stripped. The optional *logoption* keyword argument (default is 0) is a bit
+ field -- see below for possible values to combine. The optional *facility*
+ keyword argument (default is :const:`LOG_USER`) sets the default facility for
+ messages which do not have a facility explicitly encoded.
+
+
+.. function:: closelog()
+
+ Reset the syslog module values and call the system library ``closelog()``.
+
+ This causes the module to behave as it does when initially imported. For
+ example, :func:`openlog` will be called on the first :func:`syslog` call (if
+ :func:`openlog` hasn't already been called), and *ident* and other
+ :func:`openlog` parameters are reset to defaults.
+
+
+.. function:: setlogmask(maskpri)
+
+ Set the priority mask to *maskpri* and return the previous mask value. Calls
+ to :func:`syslog` with a priority level not set in *maskpri* are ignored.
+ The default is to log all priorities. The function ``LOG_MASK(pri)``
+ calculates the mask for the individual priority *pri*. The function
+ ``LOG_UPTO(pri)`` calculates the mask for all priorities up to and including
+ *pri*.
+
+The module defines the following constants:
+
+Priority levels (high to low):
+ :const:`LOG_EMERG`, :const:`LOG_ALERT`, :const:`LOG_CRIT`, :const:`LOG_ERR`,
+ :const:`LOG_WARNING`, :const:`LOG_NOTICE`, :const:`LOG_INFO`,
+ :const:`LOG_DEBUG`.
+
+Facilities:
+ :const:`LOG_KERN`, :const:`LOG_USER`, :const:`LOG_MAIL`, :const:`LOG_DAEMON`,
+ :const:`LOG_AUTH`, :const:`LOG_LPR`, :const:`LOG_NEWS`, :const:`LOG_UUCP`,
+ :const:`LOG_CRON`, :const:`LOG_SYSLOG` and :const:`LOG_LOCAL0` to
+ :const:`LOG_LOCAL7`.
+
+Log options:
+ :const:`LOG_PID`, :const:`LOG_CONS`, :const:`LOG_NDELAY`, :const:`LOG_NOWAIT`
+ and :const:`LOG_PERROR` if defined in ``<syslog.h>``.
+
+
+Examples
+--------
+
+Simple example
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+A simple set of examples::
+
+ import syslog
+
+ syslog.syslog('Processing started')
+ if error:
+ syslog.syslog(syslog.LOG_ERR, 'Processing started')
+
+An example of setting some log options, these would include the process ID in
+logged messages, and write the messages to the destination facility used for
+mail logging::
+
+ syslog.openlog(logoption=syslog.LOG_PID, facility=syslog.LOG_MAIL)
+ syslog.syslog('E-mail processing initiated...')

+:mod:`tarfile` --- Read and write tar archive files
+===================================================
+
+.. module:: tarfile
+ :synopsis: Read and write tar-format archive files.
+
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+.. moduleauthor:: Lars Gustäbel <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Lars Gustäbel <[email protected]>
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/tarfile.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`tarfile` module makes it possible to read and write tar
+archives, including those using gzip or bz2 compression.
+Use the :mod:`zipfile` module to read or write :file:`.zip` files, or the
+higher-level functions in :ref:`shutil <archiving-operations>`.
+
+Some facts and figures:
+
+* reads and writes :mod:`gzip` and :mod:`bz2` compressed archives.
+
+* read/write support for the POSIX.1-1988 (ustar) format.
+
+* read/write support for the GNU tar format including *longname* and *longlink*
+ extensions, read-only support for the *sparse* extension.
+
+* read/write support for the POSIX.1-2001 (pax) format.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+* handles directories, regular files, hardlinks, symbolic links, fifos,
+ character devices and block devices and is able to acquire and restore file
+ information like timestamp, access permissions and owner.
+
+
+.. function:: open(name=None, mode='r', fileobj=None, bufsize=10240, \*\*kwargs)
+
+ Return a :class:`TarFile` object for the pathname *name*. For detailed
+ information on :class:`TarFile` objects and the keyword arguments that are
+ allowed, see :ref:`tarfile-objects`.
+
+ *mode* has to be a string of the form ``'filemode[:compression]'``, it defaults
+ to ``'r'``. Here is a full list of mode combinations:
+
+ +------------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | mode | action |
+ +==================+=============================================+
+ | ``'r' or 'r:*'`` | Open for reading with transparent |
+ | | compression (recommended). |
+ +------------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'r:'`` | Open for reading exclusively without |
+ | | compression. |
+ +------------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'r:gz'`` | Open for reading with gzip compression. |
+ +------------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'r:bz2'`` | Open for reading with bzip2 compression. |
+ +------------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'a' or 'a:'`` | Open for appending with no compression. The |
+ | | file is created if it does not exist. |
+ +------------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'w' or 'w:'`` | Open for uncompressed writing. |
+ +------------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'w:gz'`` | Open for gzip compressed writing. |
+ +------------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'w:bz2'`` | Open for bzip2 compressed writing. |
+ +------------------+---------------------------------------------+
+
+ Note that ``'a:gz'`` or ``'a:bz2'`` is not possible. If *mode* is not suitable
+ to open a certain (compressed) file for reading, :exc:`ReadError` is raised. Use
+ *mode* ``'r'`` to avoid this. If a compression method is not supported,
+ :exc:`CompressionError` is raised.
+
+ If *fileobj* is specified, it is used as an alternative to a file object opened
+ for *name*. It is supposed to be at position 0.
+
+ For special purposes, there is a second format for *mode*:
+ ``'filemode|[compression]'``. :func:`tarfile.open` will return a :class:`TarFile`
+ object that processes its data as a stream of blocks. No random seeking will
+ be done on the file. If given, *fileobj* may be any object that has a
+ :meth:`read` or :meth:`write` method (depending on the *mode*). *bufsize*
+ specifies the blocksize and defaults to ``20 * 512`` bytes. Use this variant
+ in combination with e.g. ``sys.stdin``, a socket file object or a tape
+ device. However, such a :class:`TarFile` object is limited in that it does
+ not allow to be accessed randomly, see :ref:`tar-examples`. The currently
+ possible modes:
+
+ +-------------+--------------------------------------------+
+ | Mode | Action |
+ +=============+============================================+
+ | ``'r|*'`` | Open a *stream* of tar blocks for reading |
+ | | with transparent compression. |
+ +-------------+--------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'r|'`` | Open a *stream* of uncompressed tar blocks |
+ | | for reading. |
+ +-------------+--------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'r|gz'`` | Open a gzip compressed *stream* for |
+ | | reading. |
+ +-------------+--------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'r|bz2'`` | Open a bzip2 compressed *stream* for |
+ | | reading. |
+ +-------------+--------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'w|'`` | Open an uncompressed *stream* for writing. |
+ +-------------+--------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'w|gz'`` | Open an gzip compressed *stream* for |
+ | | writing. |
+ +-------------+--------------------------------------------+
+ | ``'w|bz2'`` | Open an bzip2 compressed *stream* for |
+ | | writing. |
+ +-------------+--------------------------------------------+

+.. _tarfile-objects:
+
+TarFile Objects
+---------------
+
+The :class:`TarFile` object provides an interface to a tar archive. A tar
+archive is a sequence of blocks. An archive member (a stored file) is made up of
+a header block followed by data blocks. It is possible to store a file in a tar
+archive several times. Each archive member is represented by a :class:`TarInfo`
+object, see :ref:`tarinfo-objects` for details.
+
+A :class:`TarFile` object can be used as a context manager in a :keyword:`with`
+statement. It will automatically be closed when the block is completed. Please
+note that in the event of an exception an archive opened for writing will not
+be finalized; only the internally used file object will be closed. See the
+:ref:`tar-examples` section for a use case.
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.7
+ Added support for the context manager protocol.
+
+.. class:: TarFile(name=None, mode='r', fileobj=None, format=DEFAULT_FORMAT, tarinfo=TarInfo, dereference=False, ignore_zeros=False, encoding=ENCODING, errors=None, pax_headers=None, debug=0, errorlevel=0)
+
+ All following arguments are optional and can be accessed as instance attributes
+ as well.
+
+ *name* is the pathname of the archive. It can be omitted if *fileobj* is given.
+ In this case, the file object's :attr:`name` attribute is used if it exists.
+
+ *mode* is either ``'r'`` to read from an existing archive, ``'a'`` to append
+ data to an existing file or ``'w'`` to create a new file overwriting an existing
+ one.
+
+ If *fileobj* is given, it is used for reading or writing data. If it can be
+ determined, *mode* is overridden by *fileobj*'s mode. *fileobj* will be used
+ from position 0.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ *fileobj* is not closed, when :class:`TarFile` is closed.
+
+ *format* controls the archive format. It must be one of the constants
+ :const:`USTAR_FORMAT`, :const:`GNU_FORMAT` or :const:`PAX_FORMAT` that are
+ defined at module level.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ The *tarinfo* argument can be used to replace the default :class:`TarInfo` class
+ with a different one.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ If *dereference* is :const:`False`, add symbolic and hard links to the archive. If it
+ is :const:`True`, add the content of the target files to the archive. This has no
+ effect on systems that do not support symbolic links.
+
+ If *ignore_zeros* is :const:`False`, treat an empty block as the end of the archive.
+ If it is :const:`True`, skip empty (and invalid) blocks and try to get as many members
+ as possible. This is only useful for reading concatenated or damaged archives.
+
+ *debug* can be set from ``0`` (no debug messages) up to ``3`` (all debug
+ messages). The messages are written to ``sys.stderr``.
+
+ If *errorlevel* is ``0``, all errors are ignored when using :meth:`TarFile.extract`.
+ Nevertheless, they appear as error messages in the debug output, when debugging
+ is enabled. If ``1``, all *fatal* errors are raised as :exc:`OSError` or
+ :exc:`IOError` exceptions. If ``2``, all *non-fatal* errors are raised as
+ :exc:`TarError` exceptions as well.
+
+ The *encoding* and *errors* arguments control the way strings are converted to
+ unicode objects and vice versa. The default settings will work for most users.
+ See section :ref:`tar-unicode` for in-depth information.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ The *pax_headers* argument is an optional dictionary of unicode strings which
+ will be added as a pax global header if *format* is :const:`PAX_FORMAT`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. method:: TarFile.open(...)
+
+ Alternative constructor. The :func:`tarfile.open` function is actually a
+ shortcut to this classmethod.
+
+
+.. method:: TarFile.getmember(name)
+
+ Return a :class:`TarInfo` object for member *name*. If *name* can not be found
+ in the archive, :exc:`KeyError` is raised.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ If a member occurs more than once in the archive, its last occurrence is assumed
+ to be the most up-to-date version.
+
+
+.. method:: TarFile.getmembers()
+
+ Return the members of the archive as a list of :class:`TarInfo` objects. The
+ list has the same order as the members in the archive.
+
+
+.. method:: TarFile.getnames()
+
+ Return the members as a list of their names. It has the same order as the list
+ returned by :meth:`getmembers`.
+
+
+.. method:: TarFile.list(verbose=True)
+
+ Print a table of contents to ``sys.stdout``. If *verbose* is :const:`False`,
+ only the names of the members are printed. If it is :const:`True`, output
+ similar to that of :program:`ls -l` is produced.
+
+
+.. method:: TarFile.next()
+
+ Return the next member of the archive as a :class:`TarInfo` object, when
+ :class:`TarFile` is opened for reading. Return :const:`None` if there is no more
+ available.
+
+
+.. method:: TarFile.extractall(path=".", members=None)
+
+ Extract all members from the archive to the current working directory or
+ directory *path*. If optional *members* is given, it must be a subset of the
+ list returned by :meth:`getmembers`. Directory information like owner,
+ modification time and permissions are set after all members have been extracted.
+ This is done to work around two problems: A directory's modification time is
+ reset each time a file is created in it. And, if a directory's permissions do
+ not allow writing, extracting files to it will fail.
+
+ .. warning::
+
+ Never extract archives from untrusted sources without prior inspection.
+ It is possible that files are created outside of *path*, e.g. members
+ that have absolute filenames starting with ``"/"`` or filenames with two
+ dots ``".."``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. method:: TarFile.extract(member, path="")
+
+ Extract a member from the archive to the current working directory, using its
+ full name. Its file information is extracted as accurately as possible. *member*
+ may be a filename or a :class:`TarInfo` object. You can specify a different
+ directory using *path*.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ The :meth:`extract` method does not take care of several extraction issues.
+ In most cases you should consider using the :meth:`extractall` method.
+
+ .. warning::
+
+ See the warning for :meth:`extractall`.
+
+
+.. method:: TarFile.extractfile(member)
+
+ Extract a member from the archive as a file object. *member* may be a filename
+ or a :class:`TarInfo` object. If *member* is a regular file, a file-like object
+ is returned. If *member* is a link, a file-like object is constructed from the
+ link's target. If *member* is none of the above, :const:`None` is returned.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ The file-like object is read-only. It provides the methods
+ :meth:`read`, :meth:`readline`, :meth:`readlines`, :meth:`seek`, :meth:`tell`,
+ and :meth:`close`, and also supports iteration over its lines.
+
+
+.. method:: TarFile.add(name, arcname=None, recursive=True, exclude=None, filter=None)
+
+ Add the file *name* to the archive. *name* may be any type of file (directory,
+ fifo, symbolic link, etc.). If given, *arcname* specifies an alternative name
+ for the file in the archive. Directories are added recursively by default. This
+ can be avoided by setting *recursive* to :const:`False`. If *exclude* is given
+ it must be a function that takes one filename argument and returns a boolean
+ value. Depending on this value the respective file is either excluded
+ (:const:`True`) or added (:const:`False`). If *filter* is specified it must
+ be a function that takes a :class:`TarInfo` object argument and returns the
+ changed :class:`TarInfo` object. If it instead returns :const:`None` the :class:`TarInfo`
+ object will be excluded from the archive. See :ref:`tar-examples` for an
+ example.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ Added the *exclude* parameter.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ Added the *filter* parameter.
+
+ .. deprecated:: 2.7
+ The *exclude* parameter is deprecated, please use the *filter* parameter
+ instead. For maximum portability, *filter* should be used as a keyword
+ argument rather than as a positional argument so that code won't be
+ affected when *exclude* is ultimately removed.
+
+
+.. method:: TarFile.addfile(tarinfo, fileobj=None)
+
+ Add the :class:`TarInfo` object *tarinfo* to the archive. If *fileobj* is given,
+ ``tarinfo.size`` bytes are read from it and added to the archive. You can
+ create :class:`TarInfo` objects using :meth:`gettarinfo`.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ On Windows platforms, *fileobj* should always be opened with mode ``'rb'`` to
+ avoid irritation about the file size.
+
+
+.. method:: TarFile.gettarinfo(name=None, arcname=None, fileobj=None)
+
+ Create a :class:`TarInfo` object for either the file *name* or the file object
+ *fileobj* (using :func:`os.fstat` on its file descriptor). You can modify some
+ of the :class:`TarInfo`'s attributes before you add it using :meth:`addfile`.
+ If given, *arcname* specifies an alternative name for the file in the archive.
+
+
+.. method:: TarFile.close()
+
+ Close the :class:`TarFile`. In write mode, two finishing zero blocks are
+ appended to the archive.
+
+
+.. attribute:: TarFile.posix
+
+ Setting this to :const:`True` is equivalent to setting the :attr:`format`
+ attribute to :const:`USTAR_FORMAT`, :const:`False` is equivalent to
+ :const:`GNU_FORMAT`.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ *posix* defaults to :const:`False`.
+
+ .. deprecated:: 2.6
+ Use the :attr:`format` attribute instead.
+
+
+.. attribute:: TarFile.pax_headers
+
+ A dictionary containing key-value pairs of pax global headers.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. _tarinfo-objects:
+
+TarInfo Objects
+---------------
+
+A :class:`TarInfo` object represents one member in a :class:`TarFile`. Aside
+from storing all required attributes of a file (like file type, size, time,
+permissions, owner etc.), it provides some useful methods to determine its type.
+It does *not* contain the file's data itself.
+
+:class:`TarInfo` objects are returned by :class:`TarFile`'s methods
+:meth:`getmember`, :meth:`getmembers` and :meth:`gettarinfo`.
+
+
+.. class:: TarInfo(name="")
+
+ Create a :class:`TarInfo` object.
+
+
+.. method:: TarInfo.frombuf(buf)
+
+ Create and return a :class:`TarInfo` object from string buffer *buf*.

+
+.. _tar-formats:
+
+Supported tar formats
+---------------------
+
+There are three tar formats that can be created with the :mod:`tarfile` module:
+
+* The POSIX.1-1988 ustar format (:const:`USTAR_FORMAT`). It supports filenames
+ up to a length of at best 256 characters and linknames up to 100 characters. The
+ maximum file size is 8 gigabytes. This is an old and limited but widely
+ supported format.
+
+* The GNU tar format (:const:`GNU_FORMAT`). It supports long filenames and
+ linknames, files bigger than 8 gigabytes and sparse files. It is the de facto
+ standard on GNU/Linux systems. :mod:`tarfile` fully supports the GNU tar
+ extensions for long names, sparse file support is read-only.
+
+* The POSIX.1-2001 pax format (:const:`PAX_FORMAT`). It is the most flexible
+ format with virtually no limits. It supports long filenames and linknames, large
+ files and stores pathnames in a portable way. However, not all tar
+ implementations today are able to handle pax archives properly.
+
+ The *pax* format is an extension to the existing *ustar* format. It uses extra
+ headers for information that cannot be stored otherwise. There are two flavours
+ of pax headers: Extended headers only affect the subsequent file header, global
+ headers are valid for the complete archive and affect all following files. All
+ the data in a pax header is encoded in *UTF-8* for portability reasons.
+
+There are some more variants of the tar format which can be read, but not
+created:
+
+* The ancient V7 format. This is the first tar format from Unix Seventh Edition,
+ storing only regular files and directories. Names must not be longer than 100
+ characters, there is no user/group name information. Some archives have
+ miscalculated header checksums in case of fields with non-ASCII characters.
+
+* The SunOS tar extended format. This format is a variant of the POSIX.1-2001
+ pax format, but is not compatible.
+
+.. _tar-unicode:
+
+Unicode issues
+--------------
+
+The tar format was originally conceived to make backups on tape drives with the
+main focus on preserving file system information. Nowadays tar archives are
+commonly used for file distribution and exchanging archives over networks. One
+problem of the original format (that all other formats are merely variants of)
+is that there is no concept of supporting different character encodings. For
+example, an ordinary tar archive created on a *UTF-8* system cannot be read
+correctly on a *Latin-1* system if it contains non-ASCII characters. Names (i.e.
+filenames, linknames, user/group names) containing these characters will appear
+damaged. Unfortunately, there is no way to autodetect the encoding of an
+archive.
+
+The pax format was designed to solve this problem. It stores non-ASCII names
+using the universal character encoding *UTF-8*. When a pax archive is read,
+these *UTF-8* names are converted to the encoding of the local file system.
+
+The details of unicode conversion are controlled by the *encoding* and *errors*
+keyword arguments of the :class:`TarFile` class.
+
+The default value for *encoding* is the local character encoding. It is deduced
+from :func:`sys.getfilesystemencoding` and :func:`sys.getdefaultencoding`. In
+read mode, *encoding* is used exclusively to convert unicode names from a pax
+archive to strings in the local character encoding. In write mode, the use of
+*encoding* depends on the chosen archive format. In case of :const:`PAX_FORMAT`,
+input names that contain non-ASCII characters need to be decoded before being
+stored as *UTF-8* strings. The other formats do not make use of *encoding*
+unless unicode objects are used as input names. These are converted to 8-bit
+character strings before they are added to the archive.
+
+The *errors* argument defines how characters are treated that cannot be
+converted to or from *encoding*. Possible values are listed in section
+:ref:`codec-base-classes`. In read mode, there is an additional scheme
+``'utf-8'`` which means that bad characters are replaced by their *UTF-8*
+representation. This is the default scheme. In write mode the default value for
+*errors* is ``'strict'`` to ensure that name information is not altered
+unnoticed.

+:mod:`telnetlib` --- Telnet client
+==================================
+
+.. module:: telnetlib
+ :synopsis: Telnet client class.
+.. sectionauthor:: Skip Montanaro <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. index:: single: protocol; Telnet
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/telnetlib.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`telnetlib` module provides a :class:`Telnet` class that implements the
+Telnet protocol. See :rfc:`854` for details about the protocol. In addition, it
+provides symbolic constants for the protocol characters (see below), and for the
+telnet options. The symbolic names of the telnet options follow the definitions
+in ``arpa/telnet.h``, with the leading ``TELOPT_`` removed. For symbolic names
+of options which are traditionally not included in ``arpa/telnet.h``, see the
+module source itself.
+
+The symbolic constants for the telnet commands are: IAC, DONT, DO, WONT, WILL,
+SE (Subnegotiation End), NOP (No Operation), DM (Data Mark), BRK (Break), IP
+(Interrupt process), AO (Abort output), AYT (Are You There), EC (Erase
+Character), EL (Erase Line), GA (Go Ahead), SB (Subnegotiation Begin).
+
+
+.. class:: Telnet([host[, port[, timeout]]])
+
+ :class:`Telnet` represents a connection to a Telnet server. The instance is
+ initially not connected by default; the :meth:`open` method must be used to
+ establish a connection. Alternatively, the host name and optional port
+ number can be passed to the constructor, to, in which case the connection to
+ the server will be established before the constructor returns. The optional
+ *timeout* parameter specifies a timeout in seconds for blocking operations
+ like the connection attempt (if not specified, the global default timeout
+ setting will be used).
+
+ Do not reopen an already connected instance.
+
+ This class has many :meth:`read_\*` methods. Note that some of them raise
+ :exc:`EOFError` when the end of the connection is read, because they can return
+ an empty string for other reasons. See the individual descriptions below.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ *timeout* was added.
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ :rfc:`854` - Telnet Protocol Specification
+ Definition of the Telnet protocol.
+
+
+.. _telnet-objects:
+
+Telnet Objects
+--------------
+
+:class:`Telnet` instances have the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: Telnet.read_until(expected[, timeout])
+
+ Read until a given string, *expected*, is encountered or until *timeout* seconds
+ have passed.
+
+ When no match is found, return whatever is available instead, possibly the empty
+ string. Raise :exc:`EOFError` if the connection is closed and no cooked data is
+ available.
+
+
+.. method:: Telnet.read_all()
+
+ Read all data until EOF; block until connection closed.
+
+
+.. method:: Telnet.read_some()
+
+ Read at least one byte of cooked data unless EOF is hit. Return ``''`` if EOF is
+ hit. Block if no data is immediately available.
+
+
+.. method:: Telnet.read_very_eager()
+
+ Read everything that can be without blocking in I/O (eager).
+
+ Raise :exc:`EOFError` if connection closed and no cooked data available. Return
+ ``''`` if no cooked data available otherwise. Do not block unless in the midst
+ of an IAC sequence.
+
+
+.. method:: Telnet.read_eager()
+
+ Read readily available data.
+
+ Raise :exc:`EOFError` if connection closed and no cooked data available. Return
+ ``''`` if no cooked data available otherwise. Do not block unless in the midst
+ of an IAC sequence.
+
+
+.. method:: Telnet.read_lazy()
+
+ Process and return data already in the queues (lazy).
+
+ Raise :exc:`EOFError` if connection closed and no data available. Return ``''``
+ if no cooked data available otherwise. Do not block unless in the midst of an
+ IAC sequence.
+
+
+.. method:: Telnet.read_very_lazy()
+
+ Return any data available in the cooked queue (very lazy).
+
+ Raise :exc:`EOFError` if connection closed and no data available. Return ``''``
+ if no cooked data available otherwise. This method never blocks.
+
+
+.. method:: Telnet.read_sb_data()
+
+ Return the data collected between a SB/SE pair (suboption begin/end). The
+ callback should access these data when it was invoked with a ``SE`` command.
+ This method never blocks.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. method:: Telnet.open(host[, port[, timeout]])
+
+ Connect to a host. The optional second argument is the port number, which
+ defaults to the standard Telnet port (23). The optional *timeout* parameter
+ specifies a timeout in seconds for blocking operations like the connection
+ attempt (if not specified, the global default timeout setting will be used).
+
+ Do not try to reopen an already connected instance.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ *timeout* was added.
+
+
+.. method:: Telnet.msg(msg[, *args])
+
+ Print a debug message when the debug level is ``>`` 0. If extra arguments are
+ present, they are substituted in the message using the standard string
+ formatting operator.
+
+
+.. method:: Telnet.set_debuglevel(debuglevel)
+
+ Set the debug level. The higher the value of *debuglevel*, the more debug
+ output you get (on ``sys.stdout``).
+
+
+.. method:: Telnet.close()
+
+ Close the connection.
+
+
+.. method:: Telnet.get_socket()
+
+ Return the socket object used internally.
+
+
+.. method:: Telnet.fileno()
+
+ Return the file descriptor of the socket object used internally.
+
+
+.. method:: Telnet.write(buffer)
+
+ Write a string to the socket, doubling any IAC characters. This can block if the
+ connection is blocked. May raise :exc:`socket.error` if the connection is
+ closed.
+
+
+.. method:: Telnet.interact()
+
+ Interaction function, emulates a very dumb Telnet client.
+
+
+.. method:: Telnet.mt_interact()
+
+ Multithreaded version of :meth:`interact`.
+
+
+.. method:: Telnet.expect(list[, timeout])
+
+ Read until one from a list of a regular expressions matches.
+
+ The first argument is a list of regular expressions, either compiled
+ (:class:`re.RegexObject` instances) or uncompiled (strings). The optional second
+ argument is a timeout, in seconds; the default is to block indefinitely.
+
+ Return a tuple of three items: the index in the list of the first regular
+ expression that matches; the match object returned; and the text read up till
+ and including the match.
+
+ If end of file is found and no text was read, raise :exc:`EOFError`. Otherwise,
+ when nothing matches, return ``(-1, None, text)`` where *text* is the text
+ received so far (may be the empty string if a timeout happened).
+
+ If a regular expression ends with a greedy match (such as ``.*``) or if more
+ than one expression can match the same input, the results are
+ non-deterministic, and may depend on the I/O timing.
+
+
+.. method:: Telnet.set_option_negotiation_callback(callback)
+
+ Each time a telnet option is read on the input flow, this *callback* (if set) is
+ called with the following parameters : callback(telnet socket, command
+ (DO/DONT/WILL/WONT), option). No other action is done afterwards by telnetlib.

+:mod:`tempfile` --- Generate temporary files and directories
+============================================================
+
+.. sectionauthor:: Zack Weinberg <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. module:: tempfile
+ :synopsis: Generate temporary files and directories.
+
+
+.. index::
+ pair: temporary; file name
+ pair: temporary; file
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/tempfile.py`
+
+--------------
+
+This module generates temporary files and directories. It works on all
+supported platforms.
+
+In version 2.3 of Python, this module was overhauled for enhanced security. It
+now provides three new functions, :func:`NamedTemporaryFile`, :func:`mkstemp`,
+and :func:`mkdtemp`, which should eliminate all remaining need to use the
+insecure :func:`mktemp` function. Temporary file names created by this module
+no longer contain the process ID; instead a string of six random characters is
+used.
+
+Also, all the user-callable functions now take additional arguments which
+allow direct control over the location and name of temporary files. It is
+no longer necessary to use the global *tempdir* and *template* variables.
+To maintain backward compatibility, the argument order is somewhat odd; it
+is recommended to use keyword arguments for clarity.
+
+The module defines the following user-callable functions:
+
+
+.. function:: TemporaryFile([mode='w+b'[, bufsize=-1[, suffix=''[, prefix='tmp'[, dir=None]]]]])
+
+ Return a file-like object that can be used as a temporary storage area.
+ The file is created using :func:`mkstemp`. It will be destroyed as soon
+ as it is closed (including an implicit close when the object is garbage
+ collected). Under Unix, the directory entry for the file is removed
+ immediately after the file is created. Other platforms do not support
+ this; your code should not rely on a temporary file created using this
+ function having or not having a visible name in the file system.
+
+ The *mode* parameter defaults to ``'w+b'`` so that the file created can
+ be read and written without being closed. Binary mode is used so that it
+ behaves consistently on all platforms without regard for the data that is
+ stored. *bufsize* defaults to ``-1``, meaning that the operating system
+ default is used.
+
+ The *dir*, *prefix* and *suffix* parameters are passed to :func:`mkstemp`.
+
+ The returned object is a true file object on POSIX platforms. On other
+ platforms, it is a file-like object whose :attr:`!file` attribute is the
+ underlying true file object. This file-like object can be used in a
+ :keyword:`with` statement, just like a normal file.
+
+
+.. function:: NamedTemporaryFile([mode='w+b'[, bufsize=-1[, suffix=''[, prefix='tmp'[, dir=None[, delete=True]]]]]])
+
+ This function operates exactly as :func:`TemporaryFile` does, except that
+ the file is guaranteed to have a visible name in the file system (on
+ Unix, the directory entry is not unlinked). That name can be retrieved
+ from the :attr:`name` attribute of the file object. Whether the name can be
+ used to open the file a second time, while the named temporary file is
+ still open, varies across platforms (it can be so used on Unix; it cannot
+ on Windows NT or later). If *delete* is true (the default), the file is
+ deleted as soon as it is closed.
+
+ The returned object is always a file-like object whose :attr:`!file`
+ attribute is the underlying true file object. This file-like object can
+ be used in a :keyword:`with` statement, just like a normal file.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+ The *delete* parameter.
+
+
+.. function:: SpooledTemporaryFile([max_size=0, [mode='w+b'[, bufsize=-1[, suffix=''[, prefix='tmp'[, dir=None]]]]]])
+
+ This function operates exactly as :func:`TemporaryFile` does, except that
+ data is spooled in memory until the file size exceeds *max_size*, or
+ until the file's :func:`fileno` method is called, at which point the
+ contents are written to disk and operation proceeds as with
+ :func:`TemporaryFile`. Also, it's ``truncate`` method does not
+ accept a ``size`` argument.
+
+ The resulting file has one additional method, :func:`rollover`, which
+ causes the file to roll over to an on-disk file regardless of its size.
+
+ The returned object is a file-like object whose :attr:`_file` attribute
+ is either a :class:`StringIO` object or a true file object, depending on
+ whether :func:`rollover` has been called. This file-like object can be
+ used in a :keyword:`with` statement, just like a normal file.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: mkstemp([suffix=''[, prefix='tmp'[, dir=None[, text=False]]]])
+
+ Creates a temporary file in the most secure manner possible. There are
+ no race conditions in the file's creation, assuming that the platform
+ properly implements the :const:`os.O_EXCL` flag for :func:`os.open`. The
+ file is readable and writable only by the creating user ID. If the
+ platform uses permission bits to indicate whether a file is executable,
+ the file is executable by no one. The file descriptor is not inherited
+ by child processes.
+
+ Unlike :func:`TemporaryFile`, the user of :func:`mkstemp` is responsible
+ for deleting the temporary file when done with it.
+
+ If *suffix* is specified, the file name will end with that suffix,
+ otherwise there will be no suffix. :func:`mkstemp` does not put a dot
+ between the file name and the suffix; if you need one, put it at the
+ beginning of *suffix*.
+
+ If *prefix* is specified, the file name will begin with that prefix;
+ otherwise, a default prefix is used.
+
+ If *dir* is specified, the file will be created in that directory;
+ otherwise, a default directory is used. The default directory is chosen
+ from a platform-dependent list, but the user of the application can
+ control the directory location by setting the *TMPDIR*, *TEMP* or *TMP*
+ environment variables. There is thus no guarantee that the generated
+ filename will have any nice properties, such as not requiring quoting
+ when passed to external commands via ``os.popen()``.
+
+ If *text* is specified, it indicates whether to open the file in binary
+ mode (the default) or text mode. On some platforms, this makes no
+ difference.
+
+ :func:`mkstemp` returns a tuple containing an OS-level handle to an open
+ file (as would be returned by :func:`os.open`) and the absolute pathname
+ of that file, in that order.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. function:: mkdtemp([suffix=''[, prefix='tmp'[, dir=None]]])
+
+ Creates a temporary directory in the most secure manner possible. There
+ are no race conditions in the directory's creation. The directory is
+ readable, writable, and searchable only by the creating user ID.
+
+ The user of :func:`mkdtemp` is responsible for deleting the temporary
+ directory and its contents when done with it.
+
+ The *prefix*, *suffix*, and *dir* arguments are the same as for
+ :func:`mkstemp`.
+
+ :func:`mkdtemp` returns the absolute pathname of the new directory.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. function:: mktemp([suffix=''[, prefix='tmp'[, dir=None]]])
+
+ .. deprecated:: 2.3
+ Use :func:`mkstemp` instead.
+
+ Return an absolute pathname of a file that did not exist at the time the
+ call is made. The *prefix*, *suffix*, and *dir* arguments are the same
+ as for :func:`mkstemp`.
+
+ .. warning::
+
+ Use of this function may introduce a security hole in your program. By
+ the time you get around to doing anything with the file name it returns,
+ someone else may have beaten you to the punch. :func:`mktemp` usage can
+ be replaced easily with :func:`NamedTemporaryFile`, passing it the
+ ``delete=False`` parameter::
+
+ >>> f = NamedTemporaryFile(delete=False)
+ >>> f
+ <open file '<fdopen>', mode 'w+b' at 0x384698>
+ >>> f.name
+ '/var/folders/5q/5qTPn6xq2RaWqk+1Ytw3-U+++TI/-Tmp-/tmpG7V1Y0'
+ >>> f.write("Hello World!\n")
+ >>> f.close()
+ >>> os.unlink(f.name)
+ >>> os.path.exists(f.name)
+ False
+
+The module uses two global variables that tell it how to construct a
+temporary name. They are initialized at the first call to any of the
+functions above. The caller may change them, but this is discouraged; use
+the appropriate function arguments, instead.
+
+
+.. data:: tempdir
+
+ When set to a value other than ``None``, this variable defines the
+ default value for the *dir* argument to all the functions defined in this
+ module.
+
+ If ``tempdir`` is unset or ``None`` at any call to any of the above
+ functions, Python searches a standard list of directories and sets
+ *tempdir* to the first one which the calling user can create files in.
+ The list is:
+
+ #. The directory named by the :envvar:`TMPDIR` environment variable.
+
+ #. The directory named by the :envvar:`TEMP` environment variable.
+
+ #. The directory named by the :envvar:`TMP` environment variable.
+
+ #. A platform-specific location:
+
+ * On RiscOS, the directory named by the :envvar:`Wimp$ScrapDir` environment
+ variable.
+
+ * On Windows, the directories :file:`C:\\TEMP`, :file:`C:\\TMP`,

+
+ * On all other platforms, the directories :file:`/tmp`, :file:`/var/tmp`, and
+ :file:`/usr/tmp`, in that order.
+
+ #. As a last resort, the current working directory.
+
+
+.. function:: gettempdir()
+
+ Return the directory currently selected to create temporary files in. If
+ :data:`tempdir` is not ``None``, this simply returns its contents; otherwise,
+ the search described above is performed, and the result returned.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. data:: template
+
+ .. deprecated:: 2.0
+ Use :func:`gettempprefix` instead.
+
+ When set to a value other than ``None``, this variable defines the prefix of the
+ final component of the filenames returned by :func:`mktemp`. A string of six
+ random letters and digits is appended to the prefix to make the filename unique.
+ The default prefix is :file:`tmp`.
+
+ Older versions of this module used to require that ``template`` be set to
+ ``None`` after a call to :func:`os.fork`; this has not been necessary since
+ version 1.5.2.
+
+
+.. function:: gettempprefix()
+
+ Return the filename prefix used to create temporary files. This does not
+ contain the directory component. Using this function is preferred over reading
+ the *template* variable directly.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 1.5.2

+:mod:`termios` --- POSIX style tty control
+==========================================
+
+.. module:: termios
+ :platform: Unix
+ :synopsis: POSIX style tty control.
+
+
+.. index::
+ pair: POSIX; I/O control
+ pair: tty; I/O control
+
+This module provides an interface to the POSIX calls for tty I/O control. For a
+complete description of these calls, see the POSIX or Unix manual pages. It is
+only available for those Unix versions that support POSIX *termios* style tty
+I/O control (and then only if configured at installation time).
+
+All functions in this module take a file descriptor *fd* as their first
+argument. This can be an integer file descriptor, such as returned by
+``sys.stdin.fileno()``, or a file object, such as ``sys.stdin`` itself.
+
+This module also defines all the constants needed to work with the functions
+provided here; these have the same name as their counterparts in C. Please
+refer to your system documentation for more information on using these terminal
+control interfaces.
+
+The module defines the following functions:
+
+
+.. function:: tcgetattr(fd)
+
+ Return a list containing the tty attributes for file descriptor *fd*, as
+ follows: ``[iflag, oflag, cflag, lflag, ispeed, ospeed, cc]`` where *cc* is a
+ list of the tty special characters (each a string of length 1, except the
+ items with indices :const:`VMIN` and :const:`VTIME`, which are integers when
+ these fields are defined). The interpretation of the flags and the speeds as
+ well as the indexing in the *cc* array must be done using the symbolic
+ constants defined in the :mod:`termios` module.
+
+
+.. function:: tcsetattr(fd, when, attributes)
+
+ Set the tty attributes for file descriptor *fd* from the *attributes*, which is
+ a list like the one returned by :func:`tcgetattr`. The *when* argument
+ determines when the attributes are changed: :const:`TCSANOW` to change
+ immediately, :const:`TCSADRAIN` to change after transmitting all queued output,
+ or :const:`TCSAFLUSH` to change after transmitting all queued output and
+ discarding all queued input.
+
+
+.. function:: tcsendbreak(fd, duration)
+
+ Send a break on file descriptor *fd*. A zero *duration* sends a break for 0.25
+ --0.5 seconds; a nonzero *duration* has a system dependent meaning.
+
+
+.. function:: tcdrain(fd)
+
+ Wait until all output written to file descriptor *fd* has been transmitted.
+
+
+.. function:: tcflush(fd, queue)
+
+ Discard queued data on file descriptor *fd*. The *queue* selector specifies
+ which queue: :const:`TCIFLUSH` for the input queue, :const:`TCOFLUSH` for the
+ output queue, or :const:`TCIOFLUSH` for both queues.
+
+
+.. function:: tcflow(fd, action)
+
+ Suspend or resume input or output on file descriptor *fd*. The *action*
+ argument can be :const:`TCOOFF` to suspend output, :const:`TCOON` to restart
+ output, :const:`TCIOFF` to suspend input, or :const:`TCION` to restart input.
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ Module :mod:`tty`
+ Convenience functions for common terminal control operations.
+
+
+Example
+-------
+
+.. _termios-example:
+
+Here's a function that prompts for a password with echoing turned off. Note the
+technique using a separate :func:`tcgetattr` call and a :keyword:`try` ...
+:keyword:`finally` statement to ensure that the old tty attributes are restored
+exactly no matter what happens::
+
+ def getpass(prompt="Password: "):
+ import termios, sys
+ fd = sys.stdin.fileno()
+ old = termios.tcgetattr(fd)
+ new = termios.tcgetattr(fd)
+ new[3] = new[3] & ~termios.ECHO # lflags
+ try:

+ passwd = raw_input(prompt)
+ finally:
+ termios.tcsetattr(fd, termios.TCSADRAIN, old)

+:mod:`test` --- Regression tests package for Python
+===================================================
+
+.. module:: test
+ :synopsis: Regression tests package containing the testing suite for Python.
+.. sectionauthor:: Brett Cannon <[email protected]>
+
+.. note::
+ The :mod:`test` package is meant for internal use by Python only. It is
+ documented for the benefit of the core developers of Python. Any use of
+ this package outside of Python's standard library is discouraged as code
+ mentioned here can change or be removed without notice between releases of
+ Python.
+
+
+The :mod:`test` package contains all regression tests for Python as well as the
+modules :mod:`test.test_support` and :mod:`test.regrtest`.
+:mod:`test.test_support` is used to enhance your tests while
+:mod:`test.regrtest` drives the testing suite.
+
+Each module in the :mod:`test` package whose name starts with ``test_`` is a
+testing suite for a specific module or feature. All new tests should be written
+using the :mod:`unittest` or :mod:`doctest` module. Some older tests are
+written using a "traditional" testing style that compares output printed to
+``sys.stdout``; this style of test is considered deprecated.
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ Module :mod:`unittest`
+ Writing PyUnit regression tests.
+
+ Module :mod:`doctest`
+ Tests embedded in documentation strings.
+
+
+.. _writing-tests:
+
+Writing Unit Tests for the :mod:`test` package
+----------------------------------------------
+
+It is preferred that tests that use the :mod:`unittest` module follow a few
+guidelines. One is to name the test module by starting it with ``test_`` and end
+it with the name of the module being tested. The test methods in the test module
+should start with ``test_`` and end with a description of what the method is
+testing. This is needed so that the methods are recognized by the test driver as
+test methods. Also, no documentation string for the method should be included. A
+comment (such as ``# Tests function returns only True or False``) should be used
+to provide documentation for test methods. This is done because documentation
+strings get printed out if they exist and thus what test is being run is not
+stated.
+
+A basic boilerplate is often used::
+
+ import unittest
+ from test import test_support
+
+ class MyTestCase1(unittest.TestCase):
+
+ # Only use setUp() and tearDown() if necessary
+
+ def setUp(self):
+ ... code to execute in preparation for tests ...
+
+ def tearDown(self):
+ ... code to execute to clean up after tests ...
+
+ def test_feature_one(self):
+ # Test feature one.
+ ... testing code ...
+
+ def test_feature_two(self):
+ # Test feature two.
+ ... testing code ...
+
+ ... more test methods ...
+
+ class MyTestCase2(unittest.TestCase):
+ ... same structure as MyTestCase1 ...
+
+ ... more test classes ...
+
+ def test_main():
+ test_support.run_unittest(MyTestCase1,
+ MyTestCase2,
+ ... list other tests ...
+ )
+
+ if __name__ == '__main__':
+ test_main()
+
+This boilerplate code allows the testing suite to be run by :mod:`test.regrtest`
+as well as on its own as a script.
+
+The goal for regression testing is to try to break code. This leads to a few
+guidelines to be followed:
+
+* The testing suite should exercise all classes, functions, and constants. This
+ includes not just the external API that is to be presented to the outside
+ world but also "private" code.
+
+* Whitebox testing (examining the code being tested when the tests are being
+ written) is preferred. Blackbox testing (testing only the published user
+ interface) is not complete enough to make sure all boundary and edge cases
+ are tested.
+
+* Make sure all possible values are tested including invalid ones. This makes
+ sure that not only all valid values are acceptable but also that improper
+ values are handled correctly.
+
+* Exhaust as many code paths as possible. Test where branching occurs and thus
+ tailor input to make sure as many different paths through the code are taken.
+
+* Add an explicit test for any bugs discovered for the tested code. This will
+ make sure that the error does not crop up again if the code is changed in the
+ future.
+
+* Make sure to clean up after your tests (such as close and remove all temporary
+ files).
+
+* If a test is dependent on a specific condition of the operating system then
+ verify the condition already exists before attempting the test.
+
+* Import as few modules as possible and do it as soon as possible. This
+ minimizes external dependencies of tests and also minimizes possible anomalous
+ behavior from side-effects of importing a module.
+
+* Try to maximize code reuse. On occasion, tests will vary by something as small
+ as what type of input is used. Minimize code duplication by subclassing a
+ basic test class with a class that specifies the input::
+
+ class TestFuncAcceptsSequences(unittest.TestCase):
+
+ func = mySuperWhammyFunction
+
+ def test_func(self):
+ self.func(self.arg)
+
+ class AcceptLists(TestFuncAcceptsSequences):
+ arg = [1, 2, 3]
+
+ class AcceptStrings(TestFuncAcceptsSequences):
+ arg = 'abc'
+
+ class AcceptTuples(TestFuncAcceptsSequences):
+ arg = (1, 2, 3)
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ Test Driven Development
+ A book by Kent Beck on writing tests before code.
+
+
+.. _regrtest:
+
+Running tests using the command-line interface
+----------------------------------------------
+
+The :mod:`test.regrtest` module can be run as a script to drive Python's regression
+test suite, thanks to the :option:`-m` option: :program:`python -m test.regrtest`.
+Running the script by itself automatically starts running all regression
+tests in the :mod:`test` package. It does this by finding all modules in the
+package whose name starts with ``test_``, importing them, and executing the
+function :func:`test_main` if present. The names of tests to execute may also
+be passed to the script. Specifying a single regression test (:program:`python
+-m test.regrtest test_spam`) will minimize output and only print whether
+the test passed or failed and thus minimize output.
+
+Running :mod:`test.regrtest` directly allows what resources are available for
+tests to use to be set. You do this by using the ``-u`` command-line
+option. Specifying ``all`` as the value for the ``-u`` option enables all
+possible resources: :program:`python -m test -uall`.
+If all but one resource is desired (a more common case), a
+comma-separated list of resources that are not desired may be listed after
+``all``. The command :program:`python -m test.regrtest -uall,-audio,-largefile`
+will run :mod:`test.regrtest` with all resources except the ``audio`` and
+``largefile`` resources. For a list of all resources and more command-line
+options, run :program:`python -m test.regrtest -h`.
+
+Some other ways to execute the regression tests depend on what platform the
+tests are being executed on. On Unix, you can run :program:`make test` at the
+top-level directory where Python was built. On Windows, executing
+:program:`rt.bat` from your :file:`PCBuild` directory will run all regression
+tests.
+
+
+:mod:`test.test_support` --- Utility functions for tests
+========================================================
+
+.. module:: test.test_support
+ :synopsis: Support for Python regression tests.
+
+.. note::
+
+ The :mod:`test.test_support` module has been renamed to :mod:`test.support`
+ in Python 3.x.
+
+The :mod:`test.test_support` module provides support for Python's regression
+tests.
+
+This module defines the following exceptions:
+
+
+.. exception:: TestFailed
+
+ Exception to be raised when a test fails. This is deprecated in favor of
+ :mod:`unittest`\ -based tests and :class:`unittest.TestCase`'s assertion
+ methods.
+
+
+.. exception:: ResourceDenied
+
+ Subclass of :exc:`unittest.SkipTest`. Raised when a resource (such as a
+ network connection) is not available. Raised by the :func:`requires`
+ function.
+
+The :mod:`test.test_support` module defines the following constants:
+
+
+.. data:: verbose
+
+ :const:`True` when verbose output is enabled. Should be checked when more
+ detailed information is desired about a running test. *verbose* is set by
+ :mod:`test.regrtest`.
+
+
+.. data:: have_unicode
+
+ :const:`True` when Unicode support is available.
+
+
+.. data:: is_jython
+
+ :const:`True` if the running interpreter is Jython.
+
+
+.. data:: TESTFN
+
+ Set to a name that is safe to use as the name of a temporary file. Any
+ temporary file that is created should be closed and unlinked (removed).
+
+The :mod:`test.test_support` module defines the following functions:
+
+
+.. function:: forget(module_name)
+
+ Remove the module named *module_name* from ``sys.modules`` and delete any
+ byte-compiled files of the module.
+
+
+.. function:: is_resource_enabled(resource)
+
+ Return :const:`True` if *resource* is enabled and available. The list of
+ available resources is only set when :mod:`test.regrtest` is executing the
+ tests.
+
+
+.. function:: requires(resource[, msg])
+
+ Raise :exc:`ResourceDenied` if *resource* is not available. *msg* is the
+ argument to :exc:`ResourceDenied` if it is raised. Always returns
+ :const:`True` if called by a function whose ``__name__`` is ``'__main__'``.
+ Used when tests are executed by :mod:`test.regrtest`.
+
+
+.. function:: findfile(filename)
+
+ Return the path to the file named *filename*. If no match is found
+ *filename* is returned. This does not equal a failure since it could be the
+ path to the file.
+
+
+.. function:: run_unittest(*classes)
+
+ Execute :class:`unittest.TestCase` subclasses passed to the function. The
+ function scans the classes for methods starting with the prefix ``test_``
+ and executes the tests individually.
+
+ It is also legal to pass strings as parameters; these should be keys in
+ ``sys.modules``. Each associated module will be scanned by
+ ``unittest.TestLoader.loadTestsFromModule()``. This is usually seen in the
+ following :func:`test_main` function::
+
+ def test_main():
+ test_support.run_unittest(__name__)
+
+ This will run all tests defined in the named module.
+
+
+.. function:: check_warnings(*filters, quiet=True)
+
+ A convenience wrapper for :func:`warnings.catch_warnings()` that makes it
+ easier to test that a warning was correctly raised. It is approximately
+ equivalent to calling ``warnings.catch_warnings(record=True)`` with
+ :meth:`warnings.simplefilter` set to ``always`` and with the option to
+ automatically validate the results that are recorded.
+
+ ``check_warnings`` accepts 2-tuples of the form ``("message regexp",
+ WarningCategory)`` as positional arguments. If one or more *filters* are
+ provided, or if the optional keyword argument *quiet* is :const:`False`,
+ it checks to make sure the warnings are as expected: each specified filter
+ must match at least one of the warnings raised by the enclosed code or the
+ test fails, and if any warnings are raised that do not match any of the
+ specified filters the test fails. To disable the first of these checks,
+ set *quiet* to :const:`True`.
+
+ If no arguments are specified, it defaults to::
+
+ check_warnings(("", Warning), quiet=True)
+
+ In this case all warnings are caught and no errors are raised.
+
+ On entry to the context manager, a :class:`WarningRecorder` instance is
+ returned. The underlying warnings list from
+ :func:`~warnings.catch_warnings` is available via the recorder object's
+ :attr:`warnings` attribute. As a convenience, the attributes of the object
+ representing the most recent warning can also be accessed directly through
+ the recorder object (see example below). If no warning has been raised,
+ then any of the attributes that would otherwise be expected on an object
+ representing a warning will return :const:`None`.
+
+ The recorder object also has a :meth:`reset` method, which clears the
+ warnings list.
+
+ The context manager is designed to be used like this::
+
+ with check_warnings(("assertion is always true", SyntaxWarning),
+ ("", UserWarning)):
+ exec('assert(False, "Hey!")')
+ warnings.warn(UserWarning("Hide me!"))
+
+ In this case if either warning was not raised, or some other warning was
+ raised, :func:`check_warnings` would raise an error.
+
+ When a test needs to look more deeply into the warnings, rather than
+ just checking whether or not they occurred, code like this can be used::
+
+ with check_warnings(quiet=True) as w:
+ warnings.warn("foo")
+ assert str(w.args[0]) == "foo"
+ warnings.warn("bar")
+ assert str(w.args[0]) == "bar"
+ assert str(w.warnings[0].args[0]) == "foo"
+ assert str(w.warnings[1].args[0]) == "bar"
+ w.reset()
+ assert len(w.warnings) == 0
+
+ Here all warnings will be caught, and the test code tests the captured
+ warnings directly.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ New optional arguments *filters* and *quiet*.
+
+
+.. function:: check_py3k_warnings(*filters, quiet=False)
+
+ Similar to :func:`check_warnings`, but for Python 3 compatibility warnings.
+ If ``sys.py3kwarning == 1``, it checks if the warning is effectively raised.
+ If ``sys.py3kwarning == 0``, it checks that no warning is raised. It
+ accepts 2-tuples of the form ``("message regexp", WarningCategory)`` as
+ positional arguments. When the optional keyword argument *quiet* is
+ :const:`True`, it does not fail if a filter catches nothing. Without
+ arguments, it defaults to::
+
+ check_py3k_warnings(("", DeprecationWarning), quiet=False)
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+.. function:: captured_stdout()
+
+ This is a context manager that runs the :keyword:`with` statement body using
+ a :class:`StringIO.StringIO` object as sys.stdout. That object can be
+ retrieved using the ``as`` clause of the :keyword:`with` statement.
+
+ Example use::
+
+ with captured_stdout() as s:
+ print "hello"
+ assert s.getvalue() == "hello\n"
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: import_module(name, deprecated=False)
+
+ This function imports and returns the named module. Unlike a normal
+ import, this function raises :exc:`unittest.SkipTest` if the module
+ cannot be imported.
+
+ Module and package deprecation messages are suppressed during this import
+ if *deprecated* is :const:`True`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+.. function:: import_fresh_module(name, fresh=(), blocked=(), deprecated=False)
+
+ This function imports and returns a fresh copy of the named Python module
+ by removing the named module from ``sys.modules`` before doing the import.
+ Note that unlike :func:`reload`, the original module is not affected by
+ this operation.
+
+ *fresh* is an iterable of additional module names that are also removed
+ from the ``sys.modules`` cache before doing the import.
+
+ *blocked* is an iterable of module names that are replaced with :const:`0`
+ in the module cache during the import to ensure that attempts to import
+ them raise :exc:`ImportError`.
+
+ The named module and any modules named in the *fresh* and *blocked*
+ parameters are saved before starting the import and then reinserted into
+ ``sys.modules`` when the fresh import is complete.
+
+ Module and package deprecation messages are suppressed during this import
+ if *deprecated* is :const:`True`.
+
+ This function will raise :exc:`unittest.SkipTest` is the named module
+ cannot be imported.
+
+ Example use::
+
+ # Get copies of the warnings module for testing without
+ # affecting the version being used by the rest of the test suite
+ # One copy uses the C implementation, the other is forced to use
+ # the pure Python fallback implementation
+ py_warnings = import_fresh_module('warnings', blocked=['_warnings'])
+ c_warnings = import_fresh_module('warnings', fresh=['_warnings'])
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+The :mod:`test.test_support` module defines the following classes:
+
+.. class:: TransientResource(exc[, **kwargs])
+
+ Instances are a context manager that raises :exc:`ResourceDenied` if the
+ specified exception type is raised. Any keyword arguments are treated as
+ attribute/value pairs to be compared against any exception raised within the
+ :keyword:`with` statement. Only if all pairs match properly against
+ attributes on the exception is :exc:`ResourceDenied` raised.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+.. class:: EnvironmentVarGuard()
+
+ Class used to temporarily set or unset environment variables. Instances can
+ be used as a context manager and have a complete dictionary interface for
+ querying/modifying the underlying ``os.environ``. After exit from the
+ context manager all changes to environment variables done through this
+ instance will be rolled back.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ Added dictionary interface.
+
+
+.. method:: EnvironmentVarGuard.set(envvar, value)
+
+ Temporarily set the environment variable ``envvar`` to the value of
+ ``value``.
+
+
+.. method:: EnvironmentVarGuard.unset(envvar)
+
+ Temporarily unset the environment variable ``envvar``.
+
+
+.. class:: WarningsRecorder()
+
+ Class used to record warnings for unit tests. See documentation of
+ :func:`check_warnings` above for more details.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6

+:mod:`textwrap` --- Text wrapping and filling
+=============================================
+
+.. module:: textwrap
+ :synopsis: Text wrapping and filling
+.. moduleauthor:: Greg Ward <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Greg Ward <[email protected]>
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/textwrap.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`textwrap` module provides two convenience functions, :func:`wrap` and
+:func:`fill`, as well as :class:`TextWrapper`, the class that does all the work,
+and a utility function :func:`dedent`. If you're just wrapping or filling one
+or two text strings, the convenience functions should be good enough;
+otherwise, you should use an instance of :class:`TextWrapper` for efficiency.
+
+.. function:: wrap(text[, width[, ...]])
+
+ Wraps the single paragraph in *text* (a string) so every line is at most *width*
+ characters long. Returns a list of output lines, without final newlines.
+
+ Optional keyword arguments correspond to the instance attributes of
+ :class:`TextWrapper`, documented below. *width* defaults to ``70``.
+
+ See the :meth:`TextWrapper.wrap` method for additional details on how
+ :func:`wrap` behaves.
+
+
+.. function:: fill(text[, width[, ...]])
+
+ Wraps the single paragraph in *text*, and returns a single string containing the
+ wrapped paragraph. :func:`fill` is shorthand for ::
+
+ "\n".join(wrap(text, ...))
+
+ In particular, :func:`fill` accepts exactly the same keyword arguments as
+ :func:`wrap`.
+
+Both :func:`wrap` and :func:`fill` work by creating a :class:`TextWrapper`
+instance and calling a single method on it. That instance is not reused, so for
+applications that wrap/fill many text strings, it will be more efficient for you
+to create your own :class:`TextWrapper` object.
+
+Text is preferably wrapped on whitespaces and right after the hyphens in
+hyphenated words; only then will long words be broken if necessary, unless
+:attr:`TextWrapper.break_long_words` is set to false.
+
+An additional utility function, :func:`dedent`, is provided to remove
+indentation from strings that have unwanted whitespace to the left of the text.
+
+
+.. function:: dedent(text)
+
+ Remove any common leading whitespace from every line in *text*.
+
+ This can be used to make triple-quoted strings line up with the left edge of the
+ display, while still presenting them in the source code in indented form.
+
+ Note that tabs and spaces are both treated as whitespace, but they are not
+ equal: the lines ``" hello"`` and ``"\thello"`` are considered to have no
+ common leading whitespace. (This behaviour is new in Python 2.5; older versions
+ of this module incorrectly expanded tabs before searching for common leading
+ whitespace.)
+
+ For example::
+
+ def test():
+ # end first line with \ to avoid the empty line!
+ s = '''\
+ hello
+ world
+ '''
+ print repr(s) # prints ' hello\n world\n '
+ print repr(dedent(s)) # prints 'hello\n world\n'
+
+
+.. class:: TextWrapper(...)
+
+ The :class:`TextWrapper` constructor accepts a number of optional keyword
+ arguments. Each argument corresponds to one instance attribute, so for example
+ ::
+
+ wrapper = TextWrapper(initial_indent="* ")
+
+ is the same as ::
+
+ wrapper = TextWrapper()
+ wrapper.initial_indent = "* "
+
+ You can re-use the same :class:`TextWrapper` object many times, and you can
+ change any of its options through direct assignment to instance attributes
+ between uses.
+
+ The :class:`TextWrapper` instance attributes (and keyword arguments to the
+ constructor) are as follows:
+
+
+ .. attribute:: width
+
+ (default: ``70``) The maximum length of wrapped lines. As long as there
+ are no individual words in the input text longer than :attr:`width`,
+ :class:`TextWrapper` guarantees that no output line will be longer than
+ :attr:`width` characters.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: expand_tabs
+
+ (default: ``True``) If true, then all tab characters in *text* will be
+ expanded to spaces using the :meth:`expandtabs` method of *text*.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: replace_whitespace
+
+ (default: ``True``) If true, after tab expansion but before wrapping,
+ the :meth:`wrap` method will replace each whitespace character
+ with a single space. The whitespace characters replaced are
+ as follows: tab, newline, vertical tab, formfeed, and carriage
+ return (``'\t\n\v\f\r'``).
+
+ .. note::
+
+ If :attr:`expand_tabs` is false and :attr:`replace_whitespace` is true,
+ each tab character will be replaced by a single space, which is *not*
+ the same as tab expansion.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ If :attr:`replace_whitespace` is false, newlines may appear in the
+ middle of a line and cause strange output. For this reason, text should
+ be split into paragraphs (using :meth:`str.splitlines` or similar)
+ which are wrapped separately.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: drop_whitespace
+
+ (default: ``True``) If true, whitespace at the beginning and ending of
+ every line (after wrapping but before indenting) is dropped.
+ Whitespace at the beginning of the paragraph, however, is not dropped
+ if non-whitespace follows it. If whitespace being dropped takes up an
+ entire line, the whole line is dropped.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+ Whitespace was always dropped in earlier versions.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: initial_indent
+
+ (default: ``''``) String that will be prepended to the first line of
+ wrapped output. Counts towards the length of the first line. The empty
+ string is not indented.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: subsequent_indent
+
+ (default: ``''``) String that will be prepended to all lines of wrapped
+ output except the first. Counts towards the length of each line except
+ the first.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: fix_sentence_endings
+
+ (default: ``False``) If true, :class:`TextWrapper` attempts to detect
+ sentence endings and ensure that sentences are always separated by exactly
+ two spaces. This is generally desired for text in a monospaced font.
+ However, the sentence detection algorithm is imperfect: it assumes that a
+ sentence ending consists of a lowercase letter followed by one of ``'.'``,
+ ``'!'``, or ``'?'``, possibly followed by one of ``'"'`` or ``"'"``,
+ followed by a space. One problem with this is algorithm is that it is
+ unable to detect the difference between "Dr." in ::
+
+ [...] Dr. Frankenstein's monster [...]
+
+ and "Spot." in ::
+
+ [...] See Spot. See Spot run [...]
+
+ :attr:`fix_sentence_endings` is false by default.
+
+ Since the sentence detection algorithm relies on ``string.lowercase`` for
+ the definition of "lowercase letter," and a convention of using two spaces
+ after a period to separate sentences on the same line, it is specific to
+ English-language texts.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: break_long_words
+
+ (default: ``True``) If true, then words longer than :attr:`width` will be
+ broken in order to ensure that no lines are longer than :attr:`width`. If
+ it is false, long words will not be broken, and some lines may be longer
+ than :attr:`width`. (Long words will be put on a line by themselves, in
+ order to minimize the amount by which :attr:`width` is exceeded.)
+
+
+ .. attribute:: break_on_hyphens
+
+ (default: ``True``) If true, wrapping will occur preferably on whitespaces
+ and right after hyphens in compound words, as it is customary in English.
+ If false, only whitespaces will be considered as potentially good places
+ for line breaks, but you need to set :attr:`break_long_words` to false if
+ you want truly insecable words. Default behaviour in previous versions
+ was to always allow breaking hyphenated words.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+ :class:`TextWrapper` also provides two public methods, analogous to the
+ module-level convenience functions:
+
+ .. method:: wrap(text)
+
+ Wraps the single paragraph in *text* (a string) so every line is at most
+ :attr:`width` characters long. All wrapping options are taken from
+ instance attributes of the :class:`TextWrapper` instance. Returns a list
+ of output lines, without final newlines. If the wrapped output has no
+ content, the returned list is empty.
+
+
+ .. method:: fill(text)
+
+ Wraps the single paragraph in *text*, and returns a single string
+ containing the wrapped paragraph.

+:mod:`thread` --- Multiple threads of control
+=============================================
+
+.. module:: thread
+ :synopsis: Create multiple threads of control within one interpreter.
+
+.. note::
+ The :mod:`thread` module has been renamed to :mod:`_thread` in Python 3.
+ The :term:`2to3` tool will automatically adapt imports when converting your
+ sources to Python 3; however, you should consider using the high-level
+ :mod:`threading` module instead.
+
+
+.. index::
+ single: light-weight processes
+ single: processes, light-weight
+ single: binary semaphores
+ single: semaphores, binary
+
+This module provides low-level primitives for working with multiple threads
+(also called :dfn:`light-weight processes` or :dfn:`tasks`) --- multiple threads of
+control sharing their global data space. For synchronization, simple locks
+(also called :dfn:`mutexes` or :dfn:`binary semaphores`) are provided.
+The :mod:`threading` module provides an easier to use and higher-level
+threading API built on top of this module.
+
+.. index::
+ single: pthreads
+ pair: threads; POSIX
+
+The module is optional. It is supported on Windows, Linux, SGI IRIX, Solaris
+2.x, as well as on systems that have a POSIX thread (a.k.a. "pthread")
+implementation. For systems lacking the :mod:`thread` module, the
+:mod:`dummy_thread` module is available. It duplicates this module's interface
+and can be used as a drop-in replacement.
+
+It defines the following constant and functions:
+
+
+.. exception:: error
+
+ Raised on thread-specific errors.
+
+
+.. data:: LockType
+
+ This is the type of lock objects.
+
+
+.. function:: start_new_thread(function, args[, kwargs])
+
+ Start a new thread and return its identifier. The thread executes the function
+ *function* with the argument list *args* (which must be a tuple). The optional
+ *kwargs* argument specifies a dictionary of keyword arguments. When the function
+ returns, the thread silently exits. When the function terminates with an
+ unhandled exception, a stack trace is printed and then the thread exits (but
+ other threads continue to run).
+
+
+.. function:: interrupt_main()
+
+ Raise a :exc:`KeyboardInterrupt` exception in the main thread. A subthread can
+ use this function to interrupt the main thread.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. function:: exit()
+
+ Raise the :exc:`SystemExit` exception. When not caught, this will cause the
+ thread to exit silently.
+
+..
+ function:: exit_prog(status)
+
+ Exit all threads and report the value of the integer argument
+ *status* as the exit status of the entire program.
+ **Caveat:** code in pending :keyword:`finally` clauses, in this thread
+ or in other threads, is not executed.
+
+
+.. function:: allocate_lock()
+
+ Return a new lock object. Methods of locks are described below. The lock is
+ initially unlocked.
+
+
+.. function:: get_ident()
+
+ Return the 'thread identifier' of the current thread. This is a nonzero
+ integer. Its value has no direct meaning; it is intended as a magic cookie to
+ be used e.g. to index a dictionary of thread-specific data. Thread identifiers
+ may be recycled when a thread exits and another thread is created.
+
+
+.. function:: stack_size([size])
+
+ Return the thread stack size used when creating new threads. The optional
+ *size* argument specifies the stack size to be used for subsequently created
+ threads, and must be 0 (use platform or configured default) or a positive
+ integer value of at least 32,768 (32kB). If changing the thread stack size is
+ unsupported, the :exc:`error` exception is raised. If the specified stack size is
+ invalid, a :exc:`ValueError` is raised and the stack size is unmodified. 32kB
+ is currently the minimum supported stack size value to guarantee sufficient
+ stack space for the interpreter itself. Note that some platforms may have
+ particular restrictions on values for the stack size, such as requiring a
+ minimum stack size > 32kB or requiring allocation in multiples of the system
+ memory page size - platform documentation should be referred to for more
+ information (4kB pages are common; using multiples of 4096 for the stack size is
+ the suggested approach in the absence of more specific information).
+ Availability: Windows, systems with POSIX threads.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+Lock objects have the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: lock.acquire([waitflag])
+
+ Without the optional argument, this method acquires the lock unconditionally, if
+ necessary waiting until it is released by another thread (only one thread at a
+ time can acquire a lock --- that's their reason for existence). If the integer
+ *waitflag* argument is present, the action depends on its value: if it is zero,
+ the lock is only acquired if it can be acquired immediately without waiting,
+ while if it is nonzero, the lock is acquired unconditionally as before. The
+ return value is ``True`` if the lock is acquired successfully, ``False`` if not.
+
+
+.. method:: lock.release()
+
+ Releases the lock. The lock must have been acquired earlier, but not
+ necessarily by the same thread.
+
+
+.. method:: lock.locked()
+
+ Return the status of the lock: ``True`` if it has been acquired by some thread,
+ ``False`` if not.
+
+In addition to these methods, lock objects can also be used via the
+:keyword:`with` statement, e.g.::
+
+ import thread
+
+ a_lock = thread.allocate_lock()
+
+ with a_lock:
+ print "a_lock is locked while this executes"
+
+**Caveats:**
+
+ .. index:: module: signal
+
+* Threads interact strangely with interrupts: the :exc:`KeyboardInterrupt`
+ exception will be received by an arbitrary thread. (When the :mod:`signal`
+ module is available, interrupts always go to the main thread.)
+
+* Calling :func:`sys.exit` or raising the :exc:`SystemExit` exception is
+ equivalent to calling :func:`thread.exit`.
+
+* Not all built-in functions that may block waiting for I/O allow other threads
+ to run. (The most popular ones (:func:`time.sleep`, :meth:`file.read`,
+ :func:`select.select`) work as expected.)
+
+* It is not possible to interrupt the :meth:`acquire` method on a lock --- the
+ :exc:`KeyboardInterrupt` exception will happen after the lock has been acquired.
+
+ .. index:: pair: threads; IRIX
+
+* When the main thread exits, it is system defined whether the other threads
+ survive. On SGI IRIX using the native thread implementation, they survive. On
+ most other systems, they are killed without executing :keyword:`try` ...
+ :keyword:`finally` clauses or executing object destructors.
+
+* When the main thread exits, it does not do any of its usual cleanup (except
+ that :keyword:`try` ... :keyword:`finally` clauses are honored), and the
+ standard I/O files are not flushed.

+:mod:`threading` --- Higher-level threading interface
+=====================================================
+
+.. module:: threading
+ :synopsis: Higher-level threading interface.
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/threading.py`
+
+--------------
+
+This module constructs higher-level threading interfaces on top of the lower
+level :mod:`thread` module.
+See also the :mod:`mutex` and :mod:`Queue` modules.
+
+The :mod:`dummy_threading` module is provided for situations where
+:mod:`threading` cannot be used because :mod:`thread` is missing.
+
+.. note::
+
+ Starting with Python 2.6, this module provides :pep:`8` compliant aliases and
+ properties to replace the ``camelCase`` names that were inspired by Java's
+ threading API. This updated API is compatible with that of the
+ :mod:`multiprocessing` module. However, no schedule has been set for the
+ deprecation of the ``camelCase`` names and they remain fully supported in
+ both Python 2.x and 3.x.
+
+.. note::
+
+ Starting with Python 2.5, several Thread methods raise :exc:`RuntimeError`
+ instead of :exc:`AssertionError` if called erroneously.
+
+.. impl-detail::
+
+ In CPython, due to the :term:`Global Interpreter Lock`, only one thread
+ can execute Python code at once (even though certain performance-oriented
+ libraries might overcome this limitation).
+ If you want your application to make better use of the computational
+ resources of multi-core machines, you are advised to use
+ :mod:`multiprocessing`. However, threading is still an appropriate model
+ if you want to run multiple I/O-bound tasks simultaneously.
+
+
+This module defines the following functions and objects:
+
+.. function:: active_count()
+ activeCount()
+
+ Return the number of :class:`Thread` objects currently alive. The returned
+ count is equal to the length of the list returned by :func:`.enumerate`.
+
+
+.. function:: Condition()
+ :noindex:
+
+ A factory function that returns a new condition variable object. A condition
+ variable allows one or more threads to wait until they are notified by another
+ thread.
+
+ See :ref:`condition-objects`.
+
+
+.. function:: current_thread()
+ currentThread()
+
+ Return the current :class:`Thread` object, corresponding to the caller's thread
+ of control. If the caller's thread of control was not created through the
+ :mod:`threading` module, a dummy thread object with limited functionality is
+ returned.
+
+
+.. function:: enumerate()
+
+ Return a list of all :class:`Thread` objects currently alive. The list
+ includes daemonic threads, dummy thread objects created by
+ :func:`current_thread`, and the main thread. It excludes terminated threads
+ and threads that have not yet been started.
+
+
+.. function:: Event()
+ :noindex:
+
+ A factory function that returns a new event object. An event manages a flag
+ that can be set to true with the :meth:`~Event.set` method and reset to false
+ with the :meth:`clear` method. The :meth:`wait` method blocks until the flag
+ is true.
+
+ See :ref:`event-objects`.
+
+
+.. class:: local
+
+ A class that represents thread-local data. Thread-local data are data whose
+ values are thread specific. To manage thread-local data, just create an
+ instance of :class:`local` (or a subclass) and store attributes on it::
+
+ mydata = threading.local()
+ mydata.x = 1
+
+ The instance's values will be different for separate threads.
+
+ For more details and extensive examples, see the documentation string of the
+ :mod:`_threading_local` module.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+.. function:: Lock()
+
+ A factory function that returns a new primitive lock object. Once a thread has
+ acquired it, subsequent attempts to acquire it block, until it is released; any
+ thread may release it.
+
+ See :ref:`lock-objects`.
+
+
+.. function:: RLock()
+
+ A factory function that returns a new reentrant lock object. A reentrant lock
+ must be released by the thread that acquired it. Once a thread has acquired a
+ reentrant lock, the same thread may acquire it again without blocking; the
+ thread must release it once for each time it has acquired it.
+
+ See :ref:`rlock-objects`.
+
+
+.. function:: Semaphore([value])
+ :noindex:
+
+ A factory function that returns a new semaphore object. A semaphore manages a
+ counter representing the number of :meth:`release` calls minus the number of
+ :meth:`acquire` calls, plus an initial value. The :meth:`acquire` method blocks
+ if necessary until it can return without making the counter negative. If not
+ given, *value* defaults to 1.
+
+ See :ref:`semaphore-objects`.
+
+
+.. function:: BoundedSemaphore([value])
+
+ A factory function that returns a new bounded semaphore object. A bounded
+ semaphore checks to make sure its current value doesn't exceed its initial
+ value. If it does, :exc:`ValueError` is raised. In most situations semaphores
+ are used to guard resources with limited capacity. If the semaphore is released
+ too many times it's a sign of a bug. If not given, *value* defaults to 1.
+
+
+.. class:: Thread
+ :noindex:
+
+ A class that represents a thread of control. This class can be safely
+ subclassed in a limited fashion.
+
+ See :ref:`thread-objects`.
+
+
+.. class:: Timer
+ :noindex:
+
+ A thread that executes a function after a specified interval has passed.
+
+ See :ref:`timer-objects`.
+
+
+.. function:: settrace(func)
+
+ .. index:: single: trace function
+
+ Set a trace function for all threads started from the :mod:`threading` module.
+ The *func* will be passed to :func:`sys.settrace` for each thread, before its
+ :meth:`run` method is called.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. function:: setprofile(func)
+
+ .. index:: single: profile function
+
+ Set a profile function for all threads started from the :mod:`threading` module.
+ The *func* will be passed to :func:`sys.setprofile` for each thread, before its
+ :meth:`run` method is called.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. function:: stack_size([size])
+
+ Return the thread stack size used when creating new threads. The optional
+ *size* argument specifies the stack size to be used for subsequently created
+ threads, and must be 0 (use platform or configured default) or a positive
+ integer value of at least 32,768 (32kB). If changing the thread stack size is
+ unsupported, a :exc:`ThreadError` is raised. If the specified stack size is
+ invalid, a :exc:`ValueError` is raised and the stack size is unmodified. 32kB
+ is currently the minimum supported stack size value to guarantee sufficient
+ stack space for the interpreter itself. Note that some platforms may have
+ particular restrictions on values for the stack size, such as requiring a
+ minimum stack size > 32kB or requiring allocation in multiples of the system
+ memory page size - platform documentation should be referred to for more
+ information (4kB pages are common; using multiples of 4096 for the stack size is
+ the suggested approach in the absence of more specific information).
+ Availability: Windows, systems with POSIX threads.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+Detailed interfaces for the objects are documented below.
+
+The design of this module is loosely based on Java's threading model. However,
+where Java makes locks and condition variables basic behavior of every object,
+they are separate objects in Python. Python's :class:`Thread` class supports a
+subset of the behavior of Java's Thread class; currently, there are no
+priorities, no thread groups, and threads cannot be destroyed, stopped,
+suspended, resumed, or interrupted. The static methods of Java's Thread class,
+when implemented, are mapped to module-level functions.
+
+All of the methods described below are executed atomically.
+
+
+.. _thread-objects:
+
+Thread Objects
+--------------
+
+This class represents an activity that is run in a separate thread of control.
+There are two ways to specify the activity: by passing a callable object to the
+constructor, or by overriding the :meth:`run` method in a subclass. No other
+methods (except for the constructor) should be overridden in a subclass. In
+other words, *only* override the :meth:`__init__` and :meth:`run` methods of
+this class.
+
+Once a thread object is created, its activity must be started by calling the
+thread's :meth:`start` method. This invokes the :meth:`run` method in a
+separate thread of control.
+
+Once the thread's activity is started, the thread is considered 'alive'. It
+stops being alive when its :meth:`run` method terminates -- either normally, or
+by raising an unhandled exception. The :meth:`is_alive` method tests whether the
+thread is alive.
+
+Other threads can call a thread's :meth:`join` method. This blocks the calling
+thread until the thread whose :meth:`join` method is called is terminated.
+
+A thread has a name. The name can be passed to the constructor, and read or
+changed through the :attr:`name` attribute.
+
+A thread can be flagged as a "daemon thread". The significance of this flag is
+that the entire Python program exits when only daemon threads are left. The
+initial value is inherited from the creating thread. The flag can be set
+through the :attr:`daemon` property.
+
+.. note::
+ Daemon threads are abruptly stopped at shutdown. Their resources (such
+ as open files, database transactions, etc.) may not be released properly.
+ If you want your threads to stop gracefully, make them non-daemonic and
+ use a suitable signalling mechanism such as an :class:`Event`.
+
+There is a "main thread" object; this corresponds to the initial thread of
+control in the Python program. It is not a daemon thread.
+
+There is the possibility that "dummy thread objects" are created. These are
+thread objects corresponding to "alien threads", which are threads of control
+started outside the threading module, such as directly from C code. Dummy
+thread objects have limited functionality; they are always considered alive and
+daemonic, and cannot be :meth:`join`\ ed. They are never deleted, since it is
+impossible to detect the termination of alien threads.
+
+
+.. class:: Thread(group=None, target=None, name=None, args=(), kwargs={})
+
+ This constructor should always be called with keyword arguments. Arguments
+ are:
+
+ *group* should be ``None``; reserved for future extension when a
+ :class:`ThreadGroup` class is implemented.
+
+ *target* is the callable object to be invoked by the :meth:`run` method.
+ Defaults to ``None``, meaning nothing is called.
+
+ *name* is the thread name. By default, a unique name is constructed of the
+ form "Thread-*N*" where *N* is a small decimal number.
+
+ *args* is the argument tuple for the target invocation. Defaults to ``()``.
+
+ *kwargs* is a dictionary of keyword arguments for the target invocation.
+ Defaults to ``{}``.
+
+ If the subclass overrides the constructor, it must make sure to invoke the
+ base class constructor (``Thread.__init__()``) before doing anything else to
+ the thread.
+
+ .. method:: start()
+
+ Start the thread's activity.
+
+ It must be called at most once per thread object. It arranges for the
+ object's :meth:`run` method to be invoked in a separate thread of control.
+
+ This method will raise a :exc:`RuntimeError` if called more than once
+ on the same thread object.
+
+ .. method:: run()
+
+ Method representing the thread's activity.
+
+ You may override this method in a subclass. The standard :meth:`run`
+ method invokes the callable object passed to the object's constructor as
+ the *target* argument, if any, with sequential and keyword arguments taken
+ from the *args* and *kwargs* arguments, respectively.
+
+ .. method:: join([timeout])
+
+ Wait until the thread terminates. This blocks the calling thread until the
+ thread whose :meth:`join` method is called terminates -- either normally
+ or through an unhandled exception -- or until the optional timeout occurs.
+
+ When the *timeout* argument is present and not ``None``, it should be a
+ floating point number specifying a timeout for the operation in seconds
+ (or fractions thereof). As :meth:`join` always returns ``None``, you must
+ call :meth:`isAlive` after :meth:`join` to decide whether a timeout
+ happened -- if the thread is still alive, the :meth:`join` call timed out.
+
+ When the *timeout* argument is not present or ``None``, the operation will
+ block until the thread terminates.
+
+ A thread can be :meth:`join`\ ed many times.
+
+ :meth:`join` raises a :exc:`RuntimeError` if an attempt is made to join
+ the current thread as that would cause a deadlock. It is also an error to
+ :meth:`join` a thread before it has been started and attempts to do so
+ raises the same exception.
+
+ .. method:: getName()
+ setName()
+
+ Old API for :attr:`~Thread.name`.
+
+ .. attribute:: name
+
+ A string used for identification purposes only. It has no semantics.
+ Multiple threads may be given the same name. The initial name is set by
+ the constructor.
+
+ .. attribute:: ident
+
+ The 'thread identifier' of this thread or ``None`` if the thread has not
+ been started. This is a nonzero integer. See the
+ :func:`thread.get_ident()` function. Thread identifiers may be recycled
+ when a thread exits and another thread is created. The identifier is
+ available even after the thread has exited.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. method:: is_alive()
+ isAlive()
+
+ Return whether the thread is alive.
+
+ This method returns ``True`` just before the :meth:`run` method starts
+ until just after the :meth:`run` method terminates. The module function
+ :func:`.enumerate` returns a list of all alive threads.
+
+ .. method:: isDaemon()
+ setDaemon()
+
+ Old API for :attr:`~Thread.daemon`.
+
+ .. attribute:: daemon
+
+ A boolean value indicating whether this thread is a daemon thread (True)
+ or not (False). This must be set before :meth:`start` is called,
+ otherwise :exc:`RuntimeError` is raised. Its initial value is inherited
+ from the creating thread; the main thread is not a daemon thread and
+ therefore all threads created in the main thread default to :attr:`daemon`
+ = ``False``.
+
+ The entire Python program exits when no alive non-daemon threads are left.
+
+
+.. _lock-objects:
+
+Lock Objects
+------------
+
+A primitive lock is a synchronization primitive that is not owned by a
+particular thread when locked. In Python, it is currently the lowest level
+synchronization primitive available, implemented directly by the :mod:`thread`
+extension module.
+
+A primitive lock is in one of two states, "locked" or "unlocked". It is created
+in the unlocked state. It has two basic methods, :meth:`acquire` and
+:meth:`release`. When the state is unlocked, :meth:`acquire` changes the state
+to locked and returns immediately. When the state is locked, :meth:`acquire`
+blocks until a call to :meth:`release` in another thread changes it to unlocked,
+then the :meth:`acquire` call resets it to locked and returns. The
+:meth:`release` method should only be called in the locked state; it changes the
+state to unlocked and returns immediately. If an attempt is made to release an
+unlocked lock, a :exc:`RuntimeError` will be raised.
+
+When more than one thread is blocked in :meth:`acquire` waiting for the state to
+turn to unlocked, only one thread proceeds when a :meth:`release` call resets
+the state to unlocked; which one of the waiting threads proceeds is not defined,
+and may vary across implementations.
+
+All methods are executed atomically.
+
+
+.. method:: Lock.acquire([blocking])
+
+ Acquire a lock, blocking or non-blocking.
+
+ When invoked with the *blocking* argument set to ``True`` (the default),
+ block until the lock is unlocked, then set it to locked and return ``True``.
+
+ When invoked with the *blocking* argument set to ``False``, do not block.
+ If a call with *blocking* set to ``True`` would block, return ``False``
+ immediately; otherwise, set the lock to locked and return ``True``.
+
+
+.. method:: Lock.release()
+
+ Release a lock.
+
+ When the lock is locked, reset it to unlocked, and return. If any other threads
+ are blocked waiting for the lock to become unlocked, allow exactly one of them
+ to proceed.
+
+ When invoked on an unlocked lock, a :exc:`ThreadError` is raised.
+
+ There is no return value.

+
+A reentrant lock is a synchronization primitive that may be acquired multiple
+times by the same thread. Internally, it uses the concepts of "owning thread"
+and "recursion level" in addition to the locked/unlocked state used by primitive
+locks. In the locked state, some thread owns the lock; in the unlocked state,
+no thread owns it.
+
+To lock the lock, a thread calls its :meth:`acquire` method; this returns once
+the thread owns the lock. To unlock the lock, a thread calls its
+:meth:`release` method. :meth:`acquire`/:meth:`release` call pairs may be
+nested; only the final :meth:`release` (the :meth:`release` of the outermost
+pair) resets the lock to unlocked and allows another thread blocked in
+:meth:`acquire` to proceed.
+
+
+.. method:: RLock.acquire([blocking=1])
+
+ Acquire a lock, blocking or non-blocking.
+
+ When invoked without arguments: if this thread already owns the lock, increment
+ the recursion level by one, and return immediately. Otherwise, if another
+ thread owns the lock, block until the lock is unlocked. Once the lock is
+ unlocked (not owned by any thread), then grab ownership, set the recursion level
+ to one, and return. If more than one thread is blocked waiting until the lock
+ is unlocked, only one at a time will be able to grab ownership of the lock.
+ There is no return value in this case.
+
+ When invoked with the *blocking* argument set to true, do the same thing as when
+ called without arguments, and return true.
+
+ When invoked with the *blocking* argument set to false, do not block. If a call
+ without an argument would block, return false immediately; otherwise, do the
+ same thing as when called without arguments, and return true.
+
+
+.. method:: RLock.release()
+
+ Release a lock, decrementing the recursion level. If after the decrement it is
+ zero, reset the lock to unlocked (not owned by any thread), and if any other
+ threads are blocked waiting for the lock to become unlocked, allow exactly one
+ of them to proceed. If after the decrement the recursion level is still
+ nonzero, the lock remains locked and owned by the calling thread.
+
+ Only call this method when the calling thread owns the lock. A
+ :exc:`RuntimeError` is raised if this method is called when the lock is
+ unlocked.
+
+ There is no return value.
+
+
+.. _condition-objects:
+
+Condition Objects
+-----------------
+
+A condition variable is always associated with some kind of lock; this can be
+passed in or one will be created by default. (Passing one in is useful when
+several condition variables must share the same lock.)
+
+A condition variable has :meth:`acquire` and :meth:`release` methods that call
+the corresponding methods of the associated lock. It also has a :meth:`wait`
+method, and :meth:`notify` and :meth:`notifyAll` methods. These three must only
+be called when the calling thread has acquired the lock, otherwise a
+:exc:`RuntimeError` is raised.
+
+The :meth:`wait` method releases the lock, and then blocks until it is awakened
+by a :meth:`notify` or :meth:`notifyAll` call for the same condition variable in
+another thread. Once awakened, it re-acquires the lock and returns. It is also
+possible to specify a timeout.
+
+The :meth:`notify` method wakes up one of the threads waiting for the condition
+variable, if any are waiting. The :meth:`notifyAll` method wakes up all threads
+waiting for the condition variable.
+
+Note: the :meth:`notify` and :meth:`notifyAll` methods don't release the lock;
+this means that the thread or threads awakened will not return from their
+:meth:`wait` call immediately, but only when the thread that called
+:meth:`notify` or :meth:`notifyAll` finally relinquishes ownership of the lock.
+
+Tip: the typical programming style using condition variables uses the lock to
+synchronize access to some shared state; threads that are interested in a
+particular change of state call :meth:`wait` repeatedly until they see the
+desired state, while threads that modify the state call :meth:`notify` or
+:meth:`notifyAll` when they change the state in such a way that it could
+possibly be a desired state for one of the waiters. For example, the following
+code is a generic producer-consumer situation with unlimited buffer capacity::
+
+ # Consume one item
+ cv.acquire()
+ while not an_item_is_available():
+ cv.wait()
+ get_an_available_item()
+ cv.release()
+
+ # Produce one item
+ cv.acquire()
+ make_an_item_available()
+ cv.notify()
+ cv.release()
+
+To choose between :meth:`notify` and :meth:`notifyAll`, consider whether one
+state change can be interesting for only one or several waiting threads. E.g.
+in a typical producer-consumer situation, adding one item to the buffer only
+needs to wake up one consumer thread.
+
+
+.. class:: Condition([lock])
+
+ If the *lock* argument is given and not ``None``, it must be a :class:`Lock`
+ or :class:`RLock` object, and it is used as the underlying lock. Otherwise,
+ a new :class:`RLock` object is created and used as the underlying lock.
+
+ .. method:: acquire(*args)
+
+ Acquire the underlying lock. This method calls the corresponding method on
+ the underlying lock; the return value is whatever that method returns.
+
+ .. method:: release()
+
+ Release the underlying lock. This method calls the corresponding method on
+ the underlying lock; there is no return value.
+
+ .. method:: wait([timeout])
+
+ Wait until notified or until a timeout occurs. If the calling thread has not
+ acquired the lock when this method is called, a :exc:`RuntimeError` is raised.
+
+ This method releases the underlying lock, and then blocks until it is
+ awakened by a :meth:`notify` or :meth:`notifyAll` call for the same
+ condition variable in another thread, or until the optional timeout
+ occurs. Once awakened or timed out, it re-acquires the lock and returns.
+
+ When the *timeout* argument is present and not ``None``, it should be a
+ floating point number specifying a timeout for the operation in seconds
+ (or fractions thereof).
+
+ When the underlying lock is an :class:`RLock`, it is not released using
+ its :meth:`release` method, since this may not actually unlock the lock
+ when it was acquired multiple times recursively. Instead, an internal
+ interface of the :class:`RLock` class is used, which really unlocks it
+ even when it has been recursively acquired several times. Another internal
+ interface is then used to restore the recursion level when the lock is
+ reacquired.
+
+ .. method:: notify(n=1)
+
+ By default, wake up one thread waiting on this condition, if any. If the
+ calling thread has not acquired the lock when this method is called, a
+ :exc:`RuntimeError` is raised.
+
+ This method wakes up at most *n* of the threads waiting for the condition
+ variable; it is a no-op if no threads are waiting.
+
+ The current implementation wakes up exactly *n* threads, if at least *n*
+ threads are waiting. However, it's not safe to rely on this behavior.
+ A future, optimized implementation may occasionally wake up more than
+ *n* threads.
+
+ Note: an awakened thread does not actually return from its :meth:`wait`
+ call until it can reacquire the lock. Since :meth:`notify` does not
+ release the lock, its caller should.
+
+ .. method:: notify_all()
+ notifyAll()
+
+ Wake up all threads waiting on this condition. This method acts like
+ :meth:`notify`, but wakes up all waiting threads instead of one. If the
+ calling thread has not acquired the lock when this method is called, a
+ :exc:`RuntimeError` is raised.
+
+
+.. _semaphore-objects:
+
+Semaphore Objects
+-----------------
+
+This is one of the oldest synchronization primitives in the history of computer
+science, invented by the early Dutch computer scientist Edsger W. Dijkstra (he
+used :meth:`P` and :meth:`V` instead of :meth:`acquire` and :meth:`release`).
+
+A semaphore manages an internal counter which is decremented by each
+:meth:`acquire` call and incremented by each :meth:`release` call. The counter
+can never go below zero; when :meth:`acquire` finds that it is zero, it blocks,
+waiting until some other thread calls :meth:`release`.
+
+
+.. class:: Semaphore([value])
+
+ The optional argument gives the initial *value* for the internal counter; it
+ defaults to ``1``. If the *value* given is less than 0, :exc:`ValueError` is
+ raised.
+
+ .. method:: acquire([blocking])
+
+ Acquire a semaphore.
+
+ When invoked without arguments: if the internal counter is larger than
+ zero on entry, decrement it by one and return immediately. If it is zero
+ on entry, block, waiting until some other thread has called
+ :meth:`release` to make it larger than zero. This is done with proper
+ interlocking so that if multiple :meth:`acquire` calls are blocked,
+ :meth:`release` will wake exactly one of them up. The implementation may
+ pick one at random, so the order in which blocked threads are awakened
+ should not be relied on. There is no return value in this case.
+
+ When invoked with *blocking* set to true, do the same thing as when called
+ without arguments, and return true.
+
+ When invoked with *blocking* set to false, do not block. If a call
+ without an argument would block, return false immediately; otherwise, do
+ the same thing as when called without arguments, and return true.
+
+ .. method:: release()
+
+ Release a semaphore, incrementing the internal counter by one. When it
+ was zero on entry and another thread is waiting for it to become larger
+ than zero again, wake up that thread.
+
+
+.. _semaphore-examples:
+
+:class:`Semaphore` Example
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Semaphores are often used to guard resources with limited capacity, for example,
+a database server. In any situation where the size of the resource is fixed,
+you should use a bounded semaphore. Before spawning any worker threads, your
+main thread would initialize the semaphore::
+
+ maxconnections = 5
+ ...
+ pool_sema = BoundedSemaphore(value=maxconnections)
+
+Once spawned, worker threads call the semaphore's acquire and release methods
+when they need to connect to the server::
+
+ pool_sema.acquire()
+ conn = connectdb()
+ ... use connection ...
+ conn.close()
+ pool_sema.release()
+
+The use of a bounded semaphore reduces the chance that a programming error which
+causes the semaphore to be released more than it's acquired will go undetected.
+
+
+.. _event-objects:
+
+Event Objects
+-------------
+
+This is one of the simplest mechanisms for communication between threads: one
+thread signals an event and other threads wait for it.
+
+An event object manages an internal flag that can be set to true with the
+:meth:`~Event.set` method and reset to false with the :meth:`clear` method. The
+:meth:`wait` method blocks until the flag is true.
+
+
+.. class:: Event()
+
+ The internal flag is initially false.
+
+ .. method:: is_set()
+ isSet()
+
+ Return true if and only if the internal flag is true.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ The ``is_set()`` syntax is new.
+
+ .. method:: set()
+
+ Set the internal flag to true. All threads waiting for it to become true
+ are awakened. Threads that call :meth:`wait` once the flag is true will
+ not block at all.
+
+ .. method:: clear()
+
+ Reset the internal flag to false. Subsequently, threads calling
+ :meth:`wait` will block until :meth:`.set` is called to set the internal
+ flag to true again.
+
+ .. method:: wait([timeout])
+
+ Block until the internal flag is true. If the internal flag is true on
+ entry, return immediately. Otherwise, block until another thread calls
+ :meth:`.set` to set the flag to true, or until the optional timeout
+ occurs.
+
+ When the timeout argument is present and not ``None``, it should be a
+ floating point number specifying a timeout for the operation in seconds
+ (or fractions thereof).
+
+ This method returns the internal flag on exit, so it will always return
+ ``True`` except if a timeout is given and the operation times out.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ Previously, the method always returned ``None``.
+
+
+.. _timer-objects:
+
+Timer Objects
+-------------
+
+This class represents an action that should be run only after a certain amount
+of time has passed --- a timer. :class:`Timer` is a subclass of :class:`Thread`
+and as such also functions as an example of creating custom threads.
+
+Timers are started, as with threads, by calling their :meth:`start` method. The
+timer can be stopped (before its action has begun) by calling the :meth:`cancel`
+method. The interval the timer will wait before executing its action may not be
+exactly the same as the interval specified by the user.
+
+For example::
+
+ def hello():
+ print "hello, world"
+
+ t = Timer(30.0, hello)
+ t.start() # after 30 seconds, "hello, world" will be printed
+
+
+.. class:: Timer(interval, function, args=[], kwargs={})
+
+ Create a timer that will run *function* with arguments *args* and keyword
+ arguments *kwargs*, after *interval* seconds have passed.
+
+ .. method:: cancel()
+
+ Stop the timer, and cancel the execution of the timer's action. This will
+ only work if the timer is still in its waiting stage.
+
+
+.. _with-locks:
+
+Using locks, conditions, and semaphores in the :keyword:`with` statement
+------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+All of the objects provided by this module that have :meth:`acquire` and
+:meth:`release` methods can be used as context managers for a :keyword:`with`
+statement. The :meth:`acquire` method will be called when the block is entered,
+and :meth:`release` will be called when the block is exited.
+
+Currently, :class:`Lock`, :class:`RLock`, :class:`Condition`,
+:class:`Semaphore`, and :class:`BoundedSemaphore` objects may be used as
+:keyword:`with` statement context managers. For example::
+
+ import threading
+
+ some_rlock = threading.RLock()
+
+ with some_rlock:
+ print "some_rlock is locked while this executes"
+
+
+.. _threaded-imports:
+
+Importing in threaded code
+--------------------------
+
+While the import machinery is thread-safe, there are two key restrictions on
+threaded imports due to inherent limitations in the way that thread-safety is
+provided:
+
+* Firstly, other than in the main module, an import should not have the
+ side effect of spawning a new thread and then waiting for that thread in
+ any way. Failing to abide by this restriction can lead to a deadlock if
+ the spawned thread directly or indirectly attempts to import a module.
+* Secondly, all import attempts must be completed before the interpreter
+ starts shutting itself down. This can be most easily achieved by only
+ performing imports from non-daemon threads created through the threading
+ module. Daemon threads and threads created directly with the thread
+ module will require some other form of synchronization to ensure they do
+ not attempt imports after system shutdown has commenced. Failure to
+ abide by this restriction will lead to intermittent exceptions and
+ crashes during interpreter shutdown (as the late imports attempt to
+ access machinery which is no longer in a valid state).

+
+:mod:`time` --- Time access and conversions
+===========================================
+
+.. module:: time
+ :synopsis: Time access and conversions.
+
+
+This module provides various time-related functions. For related
+functionality, see also the :mod:`datetime` and :mod:`calendar` modules.
+
+Although this module is always available,
+not all functions are available on all platforms. Most of the functions
+defined in this module call platform C library functions with the same name. It
+may sometimes be helpful to consult the platform documentation, because the
+semantics of these functions varies among platforms.
+
+An explanation of some terminology and conventions is in order.
+
+.. index:: single: epoch
+
+* The :dfn:`epoch` is the point where the time starts. On January 1st of that
+ year, at 0 hours, the "time since the epoch" is zero. For Unix, the epoch is
+ 1970. To find out what the epoch is, look at ``gmtime(0)``.
+
+.. index:: single: Year 2038
+
+* The functions in this module do not handle dates and times before the epoch or
+ far in the future. The cut-off point in the future is determined by the C
+ library; for Unix, it is typically in 2038.
+
+.. index::
+ single: Year 2000
+ single: Y2K
+
+.. _time-y2kissues:
+
+* **Year 2000 (Y2K) issues**: Python depends on the platform's C library, which
+ generally doesn't have year 2000 issues, since all dates and times are
+ represented internally as seconds since the epoch. Functions accepting a
+ :class:`struct_time` (see below) generally require a 4-digit year. For backward
+ compatibility, 2-digit years are supported if the module variable
+ ``accept2dyear`` is a non-zero integer; this variable is initialized to ``1``
+ unless the environment variable :envvar:`PYTHONY2K` is set to a non-empty
+ string, in which case it is initialized to ``0``. Thus, you can set
+ :envvar:`PYTHONY2K` to a non-empty string in the environment to require 4-digit
+ years for all year input. When 2-digit years are accepted, they are converted
+ according to the POSIX or X/Open standard: values 69-99 are mapped to 1969-1999,
+ and values 0--68 are mapped to 2000--2068. Values 100--1899 are always illegal.
+ Note that this is new as of Python 1.5.2(a2); earlier versions, up to Python
+ 1.5.1 and 1.5.2a1, would add 1900 to year values below 1900.
+
+.. index::
+ single: UTC
+ single: Coordinated Universal Time
+ single: Greenwich Mean Time
+
+* UTC is Coordinated Universal Time (formerly known as Greenwich Mean Time, or
+ GMT). The acronym UTC is not a mistake but a compromise between English and
+ French.
+
+.. index:: single: Daylight Saving Time
+
+* DST is Daylight Saving Time, an adjustment of the timezone by (usually) one
+ hour during part of the year. DST rules are magic (determined by local law) and
+ can change from year to year. The C library has a table containing the local
+ rules (often it is read from a system file for flexibility) and is the only
+ source of True Wisdom in this respect.
+
+* The precision of the various real-time functions may be less than suggested by
+ the units in which their value or argument is expressed. E.g. on most Unix
+ systems, the clock "ticks" only 50 or 100 times a second.
+
+* On the other hand, the precision of :func:`.time` and :func:`sleep` is better
+ than their Unix equivalents: times are expressed as floating point numbers,
+ :func:`.time` returns the most accurate time available (using Unix
+ :c:func:`gettimeofday` where available), and :func:`sleep` will accept a time
+ with a nonzero fraction (Unix :c:func:`select` is used to implement this, where
+ available).
+
+* The time value as returned by :func:`gmtime`, :func:`localtime`, and
+ :func:`strptime`, and accepted by :func:`asctime`, :func:`mktime` and
+ :func:`strftime`, may be considered as a sequence of 9 integers. The return
+ values of :func:`gmtime`, :func:`localtime`, and :func:`strptime` also offer
+ attribute names for individual fields.
+
+ See :class:`struct_time` for a description of these objects.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.2
+ The time value sequence was changed from a tuple to a :class:`struct_time`, with
+ the addition of attribute names for the fields.
+
+* Use the following functions to convert between time representations:
+
+ +-------------------------+-------------------------+-------------------------+
+ | From | To | Use |
+ +=========================+=========================+=========================+
+ | seconds since the epoch | :class:`struct_time` in | :func:`gmtime` |
+ | | UTC | |
+ +-------------------------+-------------------------+-------------------------+
+ | seconds since the epoch | :class:`struct_time` in | :func:`localtime` |
+ | | local time | |
+ +-------------------------+-------------------------+-------------------------+
+ | :class:`struct_time` in | seconds since the epoch | :func:`calendar.timegm` |
+ | UTC | | |
+ +-------------------------+-------------------------+-------------------------+
+ | :class:`struct_time` in | seconds since the epoch | :func:`mktime` |
+ | local time | | |
+ +-------------------------+-------------------------+-------------------------+
+
+
+The module defines the following functions and data items:
+
+.. data:: accept2dyear
+
+ Boolean value indicating whether two-digit year values will be accepted. This
+ is true by default, but will be set to false if the environment variable
+ :envvar:`PYTHONY2K` has been set to a non-empty string. It may also be modified
+ at run time.
+
+
+.. data:: altzone
+
+ The offset of the local DST timezone, in seconds west of UTC, if one is defined.
+ This is negative if the local DST timezone is east of UTC (as in Western Europe,
+ including the UK). Only use this if ``daylight`` is nonzero.
+
+
+.. function:: asctime([t])
+
+ Convert a tuple or :class:`struct_time` representing a time as returned by
+ :func:`gmtime` or :func:`localtime` to a 24-character string of the following
+ form: ``'Sun Jun 20 23:21:05 1993'``. If *t* is not provided, the current time
+ as returned by :func:`localtime` is used. Locale information is not used by
+ :func:`asctime`.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Unlike the C function of the same name, there is no trailing newline.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.1
+ Allowed *t* to be omitted.
+
+
+.. function:: clock()
+
+ .. index::
+ single: CPU time
+ single: processor time
+ single: benchmarking
+
+ On Unix, return the current processor time as a floating point number expressed
+ in seconds. The precision, and in fact the very definition of the meaning of
+ "processor time", depends on that of the C function of the same name, but in any
+ case, this is the function to use for benchmarking Python or timing algorithms.
+
+ On Windows, this function returns wall-clock seconds elapsed since the first
+ call to this function, as a floating point number, based on the Win32 function
+ :c:func:`QueryPerformanceCounter`. The resolution is typically better than one
+ microsecond.
+
+
+.. function:: ctime([secs])
+
+ Convert a time expressed in seconds since the epoch to a string representing
+ local time. If *secs* is not provided or :const:`None`, the current time as
+ returned by :func:`.time` is used. ``ctime(secs)`` is equivalent to
+ ``asctime(localtime(secs))``. Locale information is not used by :func:`ctime`.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.1
+ Allowed *secs* to be omitted.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ If *secs* is :const:`None`, the current time is used.
+
+
+.. data:: daylight
+
+ Nonzero if a DST timezone is defined.
+
+
+.. function:: gmtime([secs])
+
+ Convert a time expressed in seconds since the epoch to a :class:`struct_time` in
+ UTC in which the dst flag is always zero. If *secs* is not provided or
+ :const:`None`, the current time as returned by :func:`.time` is used. Fractions
+ of a second are ignored. See above for a description of the
+ :class:`struct_time` object. See :func:`calendar.timegm` for the inverse of this
+ function.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.1
+ Allowed *secs* to be omitted.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ If *secs* is :const:`None`, the current time is used.
+
+
+.. function:: localtime([secs])
+
+ Like :func:`gmtime` but converts to local time. If *secs* is not provided or
+ :const:`None`, the current time as returned by :func:`.time` is used. The dst
+ flag is set to ``1`` when DST applies to the given time.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.1
+ Allowed *secs* to be omitted.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ If *secs* is :const:`None`, the current time is used.
+
+
+.. function:: mktime(t)
+
+ This is the inverse function of :func:`localtime`. Its argument is the
+ :class:`struct_time` or full 9-tuple (since the dst flag is needed; use ``-1``
+ as the dst flag if it is unknown) which expresses the time in *local* time, not
+ UTC. It returns a floating point number, for compatibility with :func:`.time`.
+ If the input value cannot be represented as a valid time, either
+ :exc:`OverflowError` or :exc:`ValueError` will be raised (which depends on
+ whether the invalid value is caught by Python or the underlying C libraries).
+ The earliest date for which it can generate a time is platform-dependent.
+
+
+.. function:: sleep(secs)
+
+ Suspend execution for the given number of seconds. The argument may be a
+ floating point number to indicate a more precise sleep time. The actual
+ suspension time may be less than that requested because any caught signal will
+ terminate the :func:`sleep` following execution of that signal's catching
+ routine. Also, the suspension time may be longer than requested by an arbitrary
+ amount because of the scheduling of other activity in the system.
+
+
+.. function:: strftime(format[, t])
+
+ Convert a tuple or :class:`struct_time` representing a time as returned by
+ :func:`gmtime` or :func:`localtime` to a string as specified by the *format*
+ argument. If *t* is not provided, the current time as returned by
+ :func:`localtime` is used. *format* must be a string. :exc:`ValueError` is
+ raised if any field in *t* is outside of the allowed range.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.1
+ Allowed *t* to be omitted.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ :exc:`ValueError` raised if a field in *t* is out of range.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ 0 is now a legal argument for any position in the time tuple; if it is normally
+ illegal the value is forced to a correct one..
+
+ The following directives can be embedded in the *format* string. They are shown
+ without the optional field width and precision specification, and are replaced
+ by the indicated characters in the :func:`strftime` result:
+
+ +-----------+--------------------------------+-------+
+ | Directive | Meaning | Notes |

+
+ Notes:
+
+ (1)
+ When used with the :func:`strptime` function, the ``%p`` directive only affects
+ the output hour field if the ``%I`` directive is used to parse the hour.
+
+ (2)
+ The range really is ``0`` to ``61``; this accounts for leap seconds and the
+ (very rare) double leap seconds.
+
+ (3)
+ When used with the :func:`strptime` function, ``%U`` and ``%W`` are only used in
+ calculations when the day of the week and the year are specified.
+
+ Here is an example, a format for dates compatible with that specified in the
+ :rfc:`2822` Internet email standard. [#]_ ::
+
+ >>> from time import gmtime, strftime
+ >>> strftime("%a, %d %b %Y %H:%M:%S +0000", gmtime())
+ 'Thu, 28 Jun 2001 14:17:15 +0000'
+
+ Additional directives may be supported on certain platforms, but only the ones
+ listed here have a meaning standardized by ANSI C.
+
+ On some platforms, an optional field width and precision specification can
+ immediately follow the initial ``'%'`` of a directive in the following order;
+ this is also not portable. The field width is normally 2 except for ``%j`` where
+ it is 3.
+
+
+.. function:: strptime(string[, format])
+
+ Parse a string representing a time according to a format. The return value is
+ a :class:`struct_time` as returned by :func:`gmtime` or :func:`localtime`.
+
+ The *format* parameter uses the same directives as those used by
+ :func:`strftime`; it defaults to ``"%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y"`` which matches the
+ formatting returned by :func:`ctime`. If *string* cannot be parsed according to
+ *format*, or if it has excess data after parsing, :exc:`ValueError` is raised.
+ The default values used to fill in any missing data when more accurate values
+ cannot be inferred are ``(1900, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, -1)``.
+
+ For example:
+
+ >>> import time
+ >>> time.strptime("30 Nov 00", "%d %b %y") # doctest: +NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE
+ time.struct_time(tm_year=2000, tm_mon=11, tm_mday=30, tm_hour=0, tm_min=0,
+ tm_sec=0, tm_wday=3, tm_yday=335, tm_isdst=-1)
+
+ Support for the ``%Z`` directive is based on the values contained in ``tzname``
+ and whether ``daylight`` is true. Because of this, it is platform-specific
+ except for recognizing UTC and GMT which are always known (and are considered to
+ be non-daylight savings timezones).
+
+ Only the directives specified in the documentation are supported. Because
+ ``strftime()`` is implemented per platform it can sometimes offer more
+ directives than those listed. But ``strptime()`` is independent of any platform
+ and thus does not necessarily support all directives available that are not
+ documented as supported.
+
+
+.. class:: struct_time
+
+ The type of the time value sequence returned by :func:`gmtime`,
+ :func:`localtime`, and :func:`strptime`. It is an object with a :term:`named
+ tuple` interface: values can be accessed by index and by attribute name. The
+ following values are present:
+
+ +-------+-------------------+---------------------------------+
+ | Index | Attribute | Values |
+ +=======+===================+=================================+
+ | 0 | :attr:`tm_year` | (for example, 1993) |
+ +-------+-------------------+---------------------------------+
+ | 1 | :attr:`tm_mon` | range [1, 12] |
+ +-------+-------------------+---------------------------------+
+ | 2 | :attr:`tm_mday` | range [1, 31] |
+ +-------+-------------------+---------------------------------+
+ | 3 | :attr:`tm_hour` | range [0, 23] |
+ +-------+-------------------+---------------------------------+
+ | 4 | :attr:`tm_min` | range [0, 59] |
+ +-------+-------------------+---------------------------------+
+ | 5 | :attr:`tm_sec` | range [0, 61]; see **(2)** in |
+ | | | :func:`strftime` description |
+ +-------+-------------------+---------------------------------+
+ | 6 | :attr:`tm_wday` | range [0, 6], Monday is 0 |
+ +-------+-------------------+---------------------------------+
+ | 7 | :attr:`tm_yday` | range [1, 366] |
+ +-------+-------------------+---------------------------------+
+ | 8 | :attr:`tm_isdst` | 0, 1 or -1; see below |
+ +-------+-------------------+---------------------------------+
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+ Note that unlike the C structure, the month value is a range of [1, 12], not
+ [0, 11]. A year value will be handled as described under :ref:`Year 2000
+ (Y2K) issues <time-y2kissues>` above. A ``-1`` argument as the daylight
+ savings flag, passed to :func:`mktime` will usually result in the correct
+ daylight savings state to be filled in.
+
+ When a tuple with an incorrect length is passed to a function expecting a
+ :class:`struct_time`, or having elements of the wrong type, a
+ :exc:`TypeError` is raised.
+
+
+.. function:: time()
+
+ Return the time in seconds since the epoch as a floating point number.
+ Note that even though the time is always returned as a floating point
+ number, not all systems provide time with a better precision than 1 second.
+ While this function normally returns non-decreasing values, it can return a
+ lower value than a previous call if the system clock has been set back between
+ the two calls.
+
+
+.. data:: timezone
+
+ The offset of the local (non-DST) timezone, in seconds west of UTC (negative in
+ most of Western Europe, positive in the US, zero in the UK).
+
+
+.. data:: tzname
+
+ A tuple of two strings: the first is the name of the local non-DST timezone, the
+ second is the name of the local DST timezone. If no DST timezone is defined,
+ the second string should not be used.
+
+
+.. function:: tzset()
+
+ Resets the time conversion rules used by the library routines. The environment
+ variable :envvar:`TZ` specifies how this is done.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+ Availability: Unix.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Although in many cases, changing the :envvar:`TZ` environment variable may
+ affect the output of functions like :func:`localtime` without calling
+ :func:`tzset`, this behavior should not be relied on.
+
+ The :envvar:`TZ` environment variable should contain no whitespace.
+
+ The standard format of the :envvar:`TZ` environment variable is (whitespace
+ added for clarity)::
+
+ std offset [dst [offset [,start[/time], end[/time]]]]
+
+ Where the components are:
+
+ ``std`` and ``dst``
+ Three or more alphanumerics giving the timezone abbreviations. These will be
+ propagated into time.tzname
+
+ ``offset``
+ The offset has the form: ``± hh[:mm[:ss]]``. This indicates the value
+ added the local time to arrive at UTC. If preceded by a '-', the timezone
+ is east of the Prime Meridian; otherwise, it is west. If no offset follows
+ dst, summer time is assumed to be one hour ahead of standard time.
+
+ ``start[/time], end[/time]``
+ Indicates when to change to and back from DST. The format of the
+ start and end dates are one of the following:
+
+ :samp:`J{n}`
+ The Julian day *n* (1 <= *n* <= 365). Leap days are not counted, so in
+ all years February 28 is day 59 and March 1 is day 60.
+
+ :samp:`{n}`
+ The zero-based Julian day (0 <= *n* <= 365). Leap days are counted, and
+ it is possible to refer to February 29.
+
+ :samp:`M{m}.{n}.{d}`
+ The *d*'th day (0 <= *d* <= 6) or week *n* of month *m* of the year (1
+ <= *n* <= 5, 1 <= *m* <= 12, where week 5 means "the last *d* day in
+ month *m*" which may occur in either the fourth or the fifth
+ week). Week 1 is the first week in which the *d*'th day occurs. Day
+ zero is Sunday.
+
+ ``time`` has the same format as ``offset`` except that no leading sign
+ ('-' or '+') is allowed. The default, if time is not given, is 02:00:00.
+
+ ::
+
+ >>> os.environ['TZ'] = 'EST+05EDT,M4.1.0,M10.5.0'
+ >>> time.tzset()
+ >>> time.strftime('%X %x %Z')
+ '02:07:36 05/08/03 EDT'
+ >>> os.environ['TZ'] = 'AEST-10AEDT-11,M10.5.0,M3.5.0'
+ >>> time.tzset()
+ >>> time.strftime('%X %x %Z')
+ '16:08:12 05/08/03 AEST'
+
+ On many Unix systems (including \*BSD, Linux, Solaris, and Darwin), it is more
+ convenient to use the system's zoneinfo (:manpage:`tzfile(5)`) database to
+ specify the timezone rules. To do this, set the :envvar:`TZ` environment
+ variable to the path of the required timezone datafile, relative to the root of
+ the systems 'zoneinfo' timezone database, usually located at
+ :file:`/usr/share/zoneinfo`. For example, ``'US/Eastern'``,
+ ``'Australia/Melbourne'``, ``'Egypt'`` or ``'Europe/Amsterdam'``. ::
+
+ >>> os.environ['TZ'] = 'US/Eastern'
+ >>> time.tzset()
+ >>> time.tzname
+ ('EST', 'EDT')
+ >>> os.environ['TZ'] = 'Egypt'
+ >>> time.tzset()
+ >>> time.tzname
+ ('EET', 'EEST')

+:mod:`timeit` --- Measure execution time of small code snippets
+===============================================================
+
+.. module:: timeit
+ :synopsis: Measure the execution time of small code snippets.
+
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+.. index::
+ single: Benchmarking
+ single: Performance
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/timeit.py`
+
+--------------
+
+This module provides a simple way to time small bits of Python code. It has both
+a :ref:`command-line-interface` as well as a :ref:`callable <python-interface>`
+one. It avoids a number of common traps for measuring execution times.
+See also Tim Peters' introduction to the "Algorithms" chapter in the *Python
+Cookbook*, published by O'Reilly.
+
+
+Basic Examples
+--------------
+
+The following example shows how the :ref:`command-line-interface`
+can be used to compare three different expressions:
+
+.. code-block:: sh
+
+ $ python -m timeit '"-".join(str(n) for n in range(100))'
+ 10000 loops, best of 3: 40.3 usec per loop
+ $ python -m timeit '"-".join([str(n) for n in range(100)])'
+ 10000 loops, best of 3: 33.4 usec per loop
+ $ python -m timeit '"-".join(map(str, range(100)))'
+ 10000 loops, best of 3: 25.2 usec per loop
+
+This can be achieved from the :ref:`python-interface` with::
+
+ >>> import timeit
+ >>> timeit.timeit('"-".join(str(n) for n in range(100))', number=10000)
+ 0.8187260627746582
+ >>> timeit.timeit('"-".join([str(n) for n in range(100)])', number=10000)
+ 0.7288308143615723
+ >>> timeit.timeit('"-".join(map(str, range(100)))', number=10000)
+ 0.5858950614929199
+
+Note however that :mod:`timeit` will automatically determine the number of
+repetitions only when the command-line interface is used. In the
+:ref:`timeit-examples` section you can find more advanced examples.
+
+
+.. _python-interface:
+
+Python Interface
+----------------
+
+The module defines three convenience functions and a public class:
+
+
+.. function:: timeit(stmt='pass', setup='pass', timer=<default timer>, number=1000000)
+
+ Create a :class:`Timer` instance with the given statement, *setup* code and
+ *timer* function and run its :meth:`.timeit` method with *number* executions.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: repeat(stmt='pass', setup='pass', timer=<default timer>, repeat=3, number=1000000)
+
+ Create a :class:`Timer` instance with the given statement, *setup* code and
+ *timer* function and run its :meth:`.repeat` method with the given *repeat*
+ count and *number* executions.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: default_timer()
+
+ Define a default timer, in a platform-specific manner. On Windows,
+ :func:`time.clock` has microsecond granularity, but :func:`time.time`'s
+ granularity is 1/60th of a second. On Unix, :func:`time.clock` has 1/100th of
+ a second granularity, and :func:`time.time` is much more precise. On either
+ platform, :func:`default_timer` measures wall clock time, not the CPU
+ time. This means that other processes running on the same computer may
+ interfere with the timing.
+
+
+.. class:: Timer(stmt='pass', setup='pass', timer=<timer function>)
+
+ Class for timing execution speed of small code snippets.
+
+ The constructor takes a statement to be timed, an additional statement used
+ for setup, and a timer function. Both statements default to ``'pass'``;
+ the timer function is platform-dependent (see the module doc string).
+ *stmt* and *setup* may also contain multiple statements separated by ``;``
+ or newlines, as long as they don't contain multi-line string literals.
+
+ To measure the execution time of the first statement, use the :meth:`.timeit`
+ method. The :meth:`.repeat` method is a convenience to call :meth:`.timeit`
+ multiple times and return a list of results.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ The *stmt* and *setup* parameters can now also take objects that are
+ callable without arguments. This will embed calls to them in a timer
+ function that will then be executed by :meth:`.timeit`. Note that the
+ timing overhead is a little larger in this case because of the extra
+ function calls.
+
+
+ .. method:: Timer.timeit(number=1000000)
+
+ Time *number* executions of the main statement. This executes the setup
+ statement once, and then returns the time it takes to execute the main
+ statement a number of times, measured in seconds as a float.
+ The argument is the number of times through the loop, defaulting to one
+ million. The main statement, the setup statement and the timer function
+ to be used are passed to the constructor.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ By default, :meth:`.timeit` temporarily turns off :term:`garbage
+ collection` during the timing. The advantage of this approach is that
+ it makes independent timings more comparable. This disadvantage is
+ that GC may be an important component of the performance of the
+ function being measured. If so, GC can be re-enabled as the first
+ statement in the *setup* string. For example::
+
+ timeit.Timer('for i in xrange(10): oct(i)', 'gc.enable()').timeit()
+
+
+ .. method:: Timer.repeat(repeat=3, number=1000000)
+
+ Call :meth:`.timeit` a few times.
+
+ This is a convenience function that calls the :meth:`.timeit` repeatedly,
+ returning a list of results. The first argument specifies how many times
+ to call :meth:`.timeit`. The second argument specifies the *number*
+ argument for :meth:`.timeit`.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ It's tempting to calculate mean and standard deviation from the result
+ vector and report these. However, this is not very useful.
+ In a typical case, the lowest value gives a lower bound for how fast
+ your machine can run the given code snippet; higher values in the
+ result vector are typically not caused by variability in Python's
+ speed, but by other processes interfering with your timing accuracy.
+ So the :func:`min` of the result is probably the only number you
+ should be interested in. After that, you should look at the entire
+ vector and apply common sense rather than statistics.
+
+
+ .. method:: Timer.print_exc(file=None)
+
+ Helper to print a traceback from the timed code.
+
+ Typical use::
+
+ t = Timer(...) # outside the try/except
+ try:
+ t.timeit(...) # or t.repeat(...)
+ except:
+ t.print_exc()
+
+ The advantage over the standard traceback is that source lines in the
+ compiled template will be displayed. The optional *file* argument directs
+ where the traceback is sent; it defaults to :data:`sys.stderr`.
+
+
+.. _command-line-interface:
+
+Command-Line Interface
+----------------------
+
+When called as a program from the command line, the following form is used::
+
+ python -m timeit [-n N] [-r N] [-s S] [-t] [-c] [-h] [statement ...]
+
+Where the following options are understood:
+
+.. program:: timeit
+
+.. cmdoption:: -n N, --number=N
+
+ how many times to execute 'statement'
+
+.. cmdoption:: -r N, --repeat=N
+
+ how many times to repeat the timer (default 3)
+
+.. cmdoption:: -s S, --setup=S
+
+ statement to be executed once initially (default ``pass``)
+
+.. cmdoption:: -t, --time
+
+ use :func:`time.time` (default on all platforms but Windows)
+
+.. cmdoption:: -c, --clock
+
+ use :func:`time.clock` (default on Windows)
+
+.. cmdoption:: -v, --verbose
+
+ print raw timing results; repeat for more digits precision
+
+.. cmdoption:: -h, --help
+
+ print a short usage message and exit
+
+A multi-line statement may be given by specifying each line as a separate
+statement argument; indented lines are possible by enclosing an argument in
+quotes and using leading spaces. Multiple :option:`-s` options are treated
+similarly.
+
+If :option:`-n` is not given, a suitable number of loops is calculated by trying
+successive powers of 10 until the total time is at least 0.2 seconds.
+
+:func:`default_timer` measurations can be affected by other programs running on
+the same machine, so
+the best thing to do when accurate timing is necessary is to repeat
+the timing a few times and use the best time. The :option:`-r` option is good
+for this; the default of 3 repetitions is probably enough in most cases. On
+Unix, you can use :func:`time.clock` to measure CPU time.
+
+.. note::
+
+ There is a certain baseline overhead associated with executing a pass statement.
+ The code here doesn't try to hide it, but you should be aware of it. The
+ baseline overhead can be measured by invoking the program without arguments, and
+ it might differ between Python versions. Also, to fairly compare older Python
+ versions to Python 2.3, you may want to use Python's :option:`-O` option for
+ the older versions to avoid timing ``SET_LINENO`` instructions.
+
+
+.. _timeit-examples:
+
+Examples
+--------
+
+It is possible to provide a setup statement that is executed only once at the beginning:
+
+.. code-block:: sh
+
+ $ python -m timeit -s 'text = "sample string"; char = "g"' 'char in text'
+ 10000000 loops, best of 3: 0.0877 usec per loop
+ $ python -m timeit -s 'text = "sample string"; char = "g"' 'text.find(char)'
+ 1000000 loops, best of 3: 0.342 usec per loop
+
+::
+
+ >>> import timeit
+ >>> timeit.timeit('char in text', setup='text = "sample string"; char = "g"')
+ 0.41440500499993504
+ >>> timeit.timeit('text.find(char)', setup='text = "sample string"; char = "g"')
+ 1.7246671520006203
+
+The same can be done using the :class:`Timer` class and its methods::
+
+ >>> import timeit
+ >>> t = timeit.Timer('char in text', setup='text = "sample string"; char = "g"')
+ >>> t.timeit()
+ 0.3955516149999312
+ >>> t.repeat()
+ [0.40193588800002544, 0.3960157959998014, 0.39594301399984033]
+
+
+The following examples show how to time expressions that contain multiple lines.
+Here we compare the cost of using :func:`hasattr` vs. :keyword:`try`/:keyword:`except`
+to test for missing and present object attributes:
+
+.. code-block:: sh
+
+ $ python -m timeit 'try:' ' str.__nonzero__' 'except AttributeError:' ' pass'
+ 100000 loops, best of 3: 15.7 usec per loop
+ $ python -m timeit 'if hasattr(str, "__nonzero__"): pass'
+ 100000 loops, best of 3: 4.26 usec per loop
+
+ $ python -m timeit 'try:' ' int.__nonzero__' 'except AttributeError:' ' pass'
+ 1000000 loops, best of 3: 1.43 usec per loop
+ $ python -m timeit 'if hasattr(int, "__nonzero__"): pass'
+ 100000 loops, best of 3: 2.23 usec per loop
+
+::
+
+ >>> import timeit
+ >>> # attribute is missing
+ >>> s = """\
+ ... try:
+ ... str.__nonzero__
+ ... except AttributeError:
+ ... pass
+ ... """
+ >>> timeit.timeit(stmt=s, number=100000)
+ 0.9138244460009446
+ >>> s = "if hasattr(str, '__bool__'): pass"
+ >>> timeit.timeit(stmt=s, number=100000)
+ 0.5829014980008651
+ >>>
+ >>> # attribute is present
+ >>> s = """\
+ ... try:
+ ... int.__nonzero__
+ ... except AttributeError:
+ ... pass
+ ... """
+ >>> timeit.timeit(stmt=s, number=100000)
+ 0.04215312199994514
+ >>> s = "if hasattr(int, '__bool__'): pass"
+ >>> timeit.timeit(stmt=s, number=100000)
+ 0.08588060699912603
+
+To give the :mod:`timeit` module access to functions you define, you can pass a
+*setup* parameter which contains an import statement::
+
+ def test():
+ """Stupid test function"""
+ L = []
+ for i in range(100):
+ L.append(i)
+
+ if __name__ == '__main__':
+ import timeit
+ print(timeit.timeit("test()", setup="from __main__ import test"))

+:mod:`Tix` --- Extension widgets for Tk
+=======================================
+
+.. module:: Tix
+ :synopsis: Tk Extension Widgets for Tkinter
+.. sectionauthor:: Mike Clarkson <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. index:: single: Tix
+
+The :mod:`Tix` (Tk Interface Extension) module provides an additional rich set
+of widgets. Although the standard Tk library has many useful widgets, they are
+far from complete. The :mod:`Tix` library provides most of the commonly needed
+widgets that are missing from standard Tk: :class:`HList`, :class:`ComboBox`,
+:class:`Control` (a.k.a. SpinBox) and an assortment of scrollable widgets.
+:mod:`Tix` also includes many more widgets that are generally useful in a wide
+range of applications: :class:`NoteBook`, :class:`FileEntry`,
+:class:`PanedWindow`, etc; there are more than 40 of them.
+
+With all these new widgets, you can introduce new interaction techniques into
+applications, creating more useful and more intuitive user interfaces. You can

+
+Using Tix
+---------
+
+
+.. class:: Tix(screenName[, baseName[, className]])
+
+ Toplevel widget of Tix which represents mostly the main window of an
+ application. It has an associated Tcl interpreter.
+
+ Classes in the :mod:`Tix` module subclasses the classes in the :mod:`Tkinter`
+ module. The former imports the latter, so to use :mod:`Tix` with Tkinter, all
+ you need to do is to import one module. In general, you can just import
+ :mod:`Tix`, and replace the toplevel call to :class:`Tkinter.Tk` with
+ :class:`Tix.Tk`::
+
+ import Tix
+ from Tkconstants import *
+ root = Tix.Tk()
+
+To use :mod:`Tix`, you must have the :mod:`Tix` widgets installed, usually
+alongside your installation of the Tk widgets. To test your installation, try
+the following::
+
+ import Tix
+ root = Tix.Tk()
+ root.tk.eval('package require Tix')
+
+If this fails, you have a Tk installation problem which must be resolved before
+proceeding. Use the environment variable :envvar:`TIX_LIBRARY` to point to the
+installed :mod:`Tix` library directory, and make sure you have the dynamic
+object library (:file:`tix8183.dll` or :file:`libtix8183.so`) in the same
+directory that contains your Tk dynamic object library (:file:`tk8183.dll` or
+:file:`libtk8183.so`). The directory with the dynamic object library should also
+have a file called :file:`pkgIndex.tcl` (case sensitive), which contains the
+line::
+
+ package ifneeded Tix 8.1 [list load "[file join $dir tix8183.dll]" Tix]
+
+
+Tix Widgets
+-----------
+
+`Tix <http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/man/html/TixCmd/TixIntro.htm>`_
+introduces over 40 widget classes to the :mod:`Tkinter` repertoire. There is a
+demo of all the :mod:`Tix` widgets in the :file:`Demo/tix` directory of the
+standard distribution.
+
+.. The Python sample code is still being added to Python, hence commented out
+
+
+Basic Widgets
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+
+.. class:: Balloon()
+
+ A `Balloon
+ <http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/man/html/TixCmd/tixBalloon.htm>`_ that
+ pops up over a widget to provide help. When the user moves the cursor inside a
+ widget to which a Balloon widget has been bound, a small pop-up window with a
+ descriptive message will be shown on the screen.
+
+.. Python Demo of:
+.. \ulink{Balloon}{http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/demos/samples/Balloon.tcl}
+
+
+.. class:: ButtonBox()
+
+ The `ButtonBox
+ <http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/man/html/TixCmd/tixButtonBox.htm>`_
+ widget creates a box of buttons, such as is commonly used for ``Ok Cancel``.
+
+.. Python Demo of:
+.. \ulink{ButtonBox}{http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/demos/samples/BtnBox.tcl}
+
+
+.. class:: ComboBox()
+
+ The `ComboBox
+ <http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/man/html/TixCmd/tixComboBox.htm>`_
+ widget is similar to the combo box control in MS Windows. The user can select a
+ choice by either typing in the entry subwdget or selecting from the listbox
+ subwidget.
+
+.. Python Demo of:
+.. \ulink{ComboBox}{http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/demos/samples/ComboBox.tcl}
+
+
+.. class:: Control()
+
+ The `Control
+ <http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/man/html/TixCmd/tixControl.htm>`_
+ widget is also known as the :class:`SpinBox` widget. The user can adjust the
+ value by pressing the two arrow buttons or by entering the value directly into
+ the entry. The new value will be checked against the user-defined upper and
+ lower limits.
+
+.. Python Demo of:
+.. \ulink{Control}{http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/demos/samples/Control.tcl}
+
+
+.. class:: LabelEntry()
+
+ The `LabelEntry
+ <http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/man/html/TixCmd/tixLabelEntry.htm>`_
+ widget packages an entry widget and a label into one mega widget. It can be used
+ be used to simplify the creation of "entry-form" type of interface.
+
+.. Python Demo of:
+.. \ulink{LabelEntry}{http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/demos/samples/LabEntry.tcl}

+
+.. class:: LabelFrame()
+
+ The `LabelFrame
+ <http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/man/html/TixCmd/tixLabelFrame.htm>`_
+ widget packages a frame widget and a label into one mega widget. To create
+ widgets inside a LabelFrame widget, one creates the new widgets relative to the
+ :attr:`frame` subwidget and manage them inside the :attr:`frame` subwidget.
+
+.. Python Demo of:
+.. \ulink{LabelFrame}{http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/demos/samples/LabFrame.tcl}
+
+
+.. class:: Meter()

+
+.. class:: PopupMenu()
+
+ The `PopupMenu
+ <http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/man/html/TixCmd/tixPopupMenu.htm>`_
+ widget can be used as a replacement of the ``tk_popup`` command. The advantage
+ of the :mod:`Tix` :class:`PopupMenu` widget is it requires less application code
+ to manipulate.
+
+.. Python Demo of:
+.. \ulink{PopupMenu}{http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/demos/samples/PopMenu.tcl}
+
+
+.. class:: Select()

+.. Python Demo of:
+.. \ulink{DirList}{http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/demos/samples/DirList.tcl}
+
+
+.. class:: DirTree()
+
+ The `DirTree
+ <http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/man/html/TixCmd/tixDirTree.htm>`_
+ widget displays a tree view of a directory, its previous directories and its
+ sub-directories. The user can choose one of the directories displayed in the
+ list or change to another directory.
+
+.. Python Demo of:
+.. \ulink{DirTree}{http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/demos/samples/DirTree.tcl}
+
+
+.. class:: DirSelectDialog()
+
+ The `DirSelectDialog
+ <http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/man/html/TixCmd/tixDirSelectDialog.htm>`_
+ widget presents the directories in the file system in a dialog window. The user
+ can use this dialog window to navigate through the file system to select the
+ desired directory.
+
+.. Python Demo of:
+.. \ulink{DirSelectDialog}{http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/demos/samples/DirDlg.tcl}
+
+
+.. class:: DirSelectBox()
+
+ The :class:`DirSelectBox` is similar to the standard Motif(TM)
+ directory-selection box. It is generally used for the user to choose a
+ directory. DirSelectBox stores the directories mostly recently selected into
+ a ComboBox widget so that they can be quickly selected again.
+
+
+.. class:: ExFileSelectBox()
+
+ The `ExFileSelectBox
+ <http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/man/html/TixCmd/tixExFileSelectBox.htm>`_
+ widget is usually embedded in a tixExFileSelectDialog widget. It provides an
+ convenient method for the user to select files. The style of the
+ :class:`ExFileSelectBox` widget is very similar to the standard file dialog on
+ MS Windows 3.1.
+
+.. Python Demo of:
+.. \ulink{ExFileSelectDialog}{http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/demos/samples/EFileDlg.tcl}
+
+
+.. class:: FileSelectBox()
+
+ The `FileSelectBox
+ <http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/man/html/TixCmd/tixFileSelectBox.htm>`_
+ is similar to the standard Motif(TM) file-selection box. It is generally used
+ for the user to choose a file. FileSelectBox stores the files mostly recently
+ selected into a :class:`ComboBox` widget so that they can be quickly selected
+ again.
+
+.. Python Demo of:
+.. \ulink{FileSelectDialog}{http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/demos/samples/FileDlg.tcl}
+
+
+.. class:: FileEntry()
+
+ The `FileEntry
+ <http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/man/html/TixCmd/tixFileEntry.htm>`_
+ widget can be used to input a filename. The user can type in the filename
+ manually. Alternatively, the user can press the button widget that sits next to
+ the entry, which will bring up a file selection dialog.
+
+.. Python Demo of:
+.. \ulink{FileEntry}{http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/demos/samples/FileEnt.tcl}
+
+
+Hierarchical ListBox
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+
+.. class:: HList()
+
+ The `HList
+ <http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/man/html/TixCmd/tixHList.htm>`_ widget
+ can be used to display any data that have a hierarchical structure, for example,
+ file system directory trees. The list entries are indented and connected by
+ branch lines according to their places in the hierarchy.
+
+.. Python Demo of:
+.. \ulink{HList}{http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/demos/samples/HList1.tcl}
+
+
+.. class:: CheckList()
+
+ The `CheckList
+ <http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/man/html/TixCmd/tixCheckList.htm>`_
+ widget displays a list of items to be selected by the user. CheckList acts
+ similarly to the Tk checkbutton or radiobutton widgets, except it is capable of
+ handling many more items than checkbuttons or radiobuttons.
+
+.. Python Demo of:
+.. \ulink{ CheckList}{http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/demos/samples/ChkList.tcl}

+Tabular ListBox
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+
+.. class:: TList()
+
+ The `TList
+ <http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/man/html/TixCmd/tixTList.htm>`_ widget
+ can be used to display data in a tabular format. The list entries of a
+ :class:`TList` widget are similar to the entries in the Tk listbox widget. The
+ main differences are (1) the :class:`TList` widget can display the list entries
+ in a two dimensional format and (2) you can use graphical images as well as
+ multiple colors and fonts for the list entries.

+
+
+.. class:: ListNoteBook()
+
+ The `ListNoteBook
+ <http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/man/html/TixCmd/tixListNoteBook.htm>`_
+ widget is very similar to the :class:`TixNoteBook` widget: it can be used to
+ display many windows in a limited space using a notebook metaphor. The notebook
+ is divided into a stack of pages (windows). At one time only one of these pages
+ can be shown. The user can navigate through these pages by choosing the name of
+ the desired page in the :attr:`hlist` subwidget.
+
+.. Python Demo of:

+ <http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/man/html/TixCmd/tixNoteBook.htm>`_
+ widget can be used to display many windows in a limited space using a notebook
+ metaphor. The notebook is divided into a stack of pages. At one time only one of
+ these pages can be shown. The user can navigate through these pages by choosing
+ the visual "tabs" at the top of the NoteBook widget.
+
+.. Python Demo of:

+Image Types
+^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The :mod:`Tix` module adds:
+
+* `pixmap <http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/man/html/TixCmd/pixmap.htm>`_
+ capabilities to all :mod:`Tix` and :mod:`Tkinter` widgets to create color images

+ types can be used to create images that consists of multiple horizontal lines;
+ each line is composed of a series of items (texts, bitmaps, images or spaces)
+ arranged from left to right. For example, a compound image can be used to
+ display a bitmap and a text string simultaneously in a Tk :class:`Button`
+ widget.

+
+
+Miscellaneous Widgets
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+
+.. class:: InputOnly()
+
+ The `InputOnly
+ <http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/man/html/TixCmd/tixInputOnly.htm>`_
+ widgets are to accept inputs from the user, which can be done with the ``bind``
+ command (Unix only).
+
+
+Form Geometry Manager
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+In addition, :mod:`Tix` augments :mod:`Tkinter` by providing:
+
+
+.. class:: Form()
+
+ The `Form
+ <http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/man/html/TixCmd/tixForm.htm>`_ geometry
+ manager based on attachment rules for all Tk widgets.
+
+
+
+Tix Commands
+------------
+
+
+.. class:: tixCommand()
+
+ The `tix commands
+ <http://tix.sourceforge.net/dist/current/man/html/TixCmd/tix.htm>`_ provide
+ access to miscellaneous elements of :mod:`Tix`'s internal state and the
+ :mod:`Tix` application context. Most of the information manipulated by these
+ methods pertains to the application as a whole, or to a screen or display,
+ rather than to a particular window.
+
+ To view the current settings, the common usage is::
+
+ import Tix
+ root = Tix.Tk()
+ print root.tix_configure()
+
+
+.. method:: tixCommand.tix_configure(cnf=None **kw)
+
+ Query or modify the configuration options of the Tix application context. If no
+ option is specified, returns a dictionary all of the available options. If
+ option is specified with no value, then the method returns a list describing the
+ one named option (this list will be identical to the corresponding sublist of
+ the value returned if no option is specified). If one or more option-value
+ pairs are specified, then the method modifies the given option(s) to have the
+ given value(s); in this case the method returns an empty string. Option may be
+ any of the configuration options.
+
+
+.. method:: tixCommand.tix_cget(option)
+
+ Returns the current value of the configuration option given by *option*. Option
+ may be any of the configuration options.
+
+
+.. method:: tixCommand.tix_getbitmap(name)
+
+ Locates a bitmap file of the name ``name.xpm`` or ``name`` in one of the bitmap
+ directories (see the :meth:`tix_addbitmapdir` method). By using
+ :meth:`tix_getbitmap`, you can avoid hard coding the pathnames of the bitmap
+ files in your application. When successful, it returns the complete pathname of
+ the bitmap file, prefixed with the character ``@``. The returned value can be
+ used to configure the ``bitmap`` option of the Tk and Tix widgets.
+
+
+.. method:: tixCommand.tix_addbitmapdir(directory)
+
+ Tix maintains a list of directories under which the :meth:`tix_getimage` and
+ :meth:`tix_getbitmap` methods will search for image files. The standard bitmap
+ directory is :file:`$TIX_LIBRARY/bitmaps`. The :meth:`tix_addbitmapdir` method
+ adds *directory* into this list. By using this method, the image files of an
+ applications can also be located using the :meth:`tix_getimage` or
+ :meth:`tix_getbitmap` method.
+
+
+.. method:: tixCommand.tix_filedialog([dlgclass])
+
+ Returns the file selection dialog that may be shared among different calls from
+ this application. This method will create a file selection dialog widget when
+ it is called the first time. This dialog will be returned by all subsequent
+ calls to :meth:`tix_filedialog`. An optional dlgclass parameter can be passed
+ as a string to specified what type of file selection dialog widget is desired.
+ Possible options are ``tix``, ``FileSelectDialog`` or ``tixExFileSelectDialog``.
+
+
+.. method:: tixCommand.tix_getimage(self, name)
+
+ Locates an image file of the name :file:`name.xpm`, :file:`name.xbm` or
+ :file:`name.ppm` in one of the bitmap directories (see the
+ :meth:`tix_addbitmapdir` method above). If more than one file with the same name
+ (but different extensions) exist, then the image type is chosen according to the
+ depth of the X display: xbm images are chosen on monochrome displays and color
+ images are chosen on color displays. By using :meth:`tix_getimage`, you can
+ avoid hard coding the pathnames of the image files in your application. When
+ successful, this method returns the name of the newly created image, which can
+ be used to configure the ``image`` option of the Tk and Tix widgets.
+
+
+.. method:: tixCommand.tix_option_get(name)
+
+ Gets the options maintained by the Tix scheme mechanism.
+
+
+.. method:: tixCommand.tix_resetoptions(newScheme, newFontSet[, newScmPrio])
+
+ Resets the scheme and fontset of the Tix application to *newScheme* and
+ *newFontSet*, respectively. This affects only those widgets created after this
+ call. Therefore, it is best to call the resetoptions method before the creation
+ of any widgets in a Tix application.
+
+ The optional parameter *newScmPrio* can be given to reset the priority level of
+ the Tk options set by the Tix schemes.
+
+ Because of the way Tk handles the X option database, after Tix has been has
+ imported and inited, it is not possible to reset the color schemes and font sets
+ using the :meth:`tix_config` method. Instead, the :meth:`tix_resetoptions`
+ method must be used.

+
+Tk/Tcl has long been an integral part of Python. It provides a robust and
+platform independent windowing toolkit, that is available to Python programmers
+using the :mod:`Tkinter` module, and its extensions, the :mod:`Tix` and
+the :mod:`ttk` modules.
+
+The :mod:`Tkinter` module is a thin object-oriented layer on top of Tcl/Tk. To
+use :mod:`Tkinter`, you don't need to write Tcl code, but you will need to
+consult the Tk documentation, and occasionally the Tcl documentation.
+:mod:`Tkinter` is a set of wrappers that implement the Tk widgets as Python
+classes. In addition, the internal module :mod:`_tkinter` provides a threadsafe
+mechanism which allows Python and Tcl to interact.
+
+:mod:`Tkinter`'s chief virtues are that it is fast, and that it usually comes
+bundled with Python. Although its standard documentation is weak, good
+material is available, which includes: references, tutorials, a book and
+others. :mod:`Tkinter` is also famous for having an outdated look and feel,
+which has been vastly improved in Tk 8.5. Nevertheless, there are many other
+GUI libraries that you could be interested in. For more information about
+alternatives, see the :ref:`other-gui-packages` section.

+:mod:`Tkinter` --- Python interface to Tcl/Tk
+=============================================
+
+.. module:: Tkinter
+ :synopsis: Interface to Tcl/Tk for graphical user interfaces
+.. moduleauthor:: Guido van Rossum <[email protected]>
+
+
+The :mod:`Tkinter` module ("Tk interface") is the standard Python interface to
+the Tk GUI toolkit. Both Tk and :mod:`Tkinter` are available on most Unix
+platforms, as well as on Windows systems. (Tk itself is not part of Python; it
+is maintained at ActiveState.)
+
+.. note::
+
+ :mod:`Tkinter` has been renamed to :mod:`tkinter` in Python 3. The
+ :term:`2to3` tool will automatically adapt imports when converting your
+ sources to Python 3.
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ `Python Tkinter Resources <http://www.python.org/topics/tkinter/>`_

+
+Tkinter Modules
+---------------
+
+Most of the time, the :mod:`Tkinter` module is all you really need, but a number
+of additional modules are available as well. The Tk interface is located in a
+binary module named :mod:`_tkinter`. This module contains the low-level
+interface to Tk, and should never be used directly by application programmers.
+It is usually a shared library (or DLL), but might in some cases be statically
+linked with the Python interpreter.
+
+In addition to the Tk interface module, :mod:`Tkinter` includes a number of
+Python modules. The two most important modules are the :mod:`Tkinter` module
+itself, and a module called :mod:`Tkconstants`. The former automatically imports
+the latter, so to use Tkinter, all you need to do is to import one module::
+
+ import Tkinter
+
+Or, more often::
+
+ from Tkinter import *
+
+
+.. class:: Tk(screenName=None, baseName=None, className='Tk', useTk=1)
+
+ The :class:`Tk` class is instantiated without arguments. This creates a toplevel
+ widget of Tk which usually is the main window of an application. Each instance
+ has its own associated Tcl interpreter.
+
+ .. FIXME: The following keyword arguments are currently recognized:
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ The *useTk* parameter was added.
+
+
+.. function:: Tcl(screenName=None, baseName=None, className='Tk', useTk=0)
+
+ The :func:`Tcl` function is a factory function which creates an object much like
+ that created by the :class:`Tk` class, except that it does not initialize the Tk
+ subsystem. This is most often useful when driving the Tcl interpreter in an
+ environment where one doesn't want to create extraneous toplevel windows, or
+ where one cannot (such as Unix/Linux systems without an X server). An object
+ created by the :func:`Tcl` object can have a Toplevel window created (and the Tk
+ subsystem initialized) by calling its :meth:`loadtk` method.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+Other modules that provide Tk support include:
+
+:mod:`ScrolledText`
+ Text widget with a vertical scroll bar built in.
+
+:mod:`tkColorChooser`
+ Dialog to let the user choose a color.
+
+:mod:`tkCommonDialog`
+ Base class for the dialogs defined in the other modules listed here.
+
+:mod:`tkFileDialog`
+ Common dialogs to allow the user to specify a file to open or save.
+
+:mod:`tkFont`
+ Utilities to help work with fonts.
+
+:mod:`tkMessageBox`
+ Access to standard Tk dialog boxes.
+
+:mod:`tkSimpleDialog`
+ Basic dialogs and convenience functions.
+
+:mod:`Tkdnd`
+ Drag-and-drop support for :mod:`Tkinter`. This is experimental and should become
+ deprecated when it is replaced with the Tk DND.
+
+:mod:`turtle`
+ Turtle graphics in a Tk window.
+
+These have been renamed as well in Python 3; they were all made submodules of
+the new ``tkinter`` package.
+
+
+Tkinter Life Preserver
+----------------------
+
+.. sectionauthor:: Matt Conway
+
+
+This section is not designed to be an exhaustive tutorial on either Tk or
+Tkinter. Rather, it is intended as a stop gap, providing some introductory
+orientation on the system.
+
+Credits:
+
+* Tkinter was written by Steen Lumholt and Guido van Rossum.
+
+* Tk was written by John Ousterhout while at Berkeley.
+
+* This Life Preserver was written by Matt Conway at the University of Virginia.
+
+* The html rendering, and some liberal editing, was produced from a FrameMaker
+ version by Ken Manheimer.
+
+* Fredrik Lundh elaborated and revised the class interface descriptions, to get
+ them current with Tk 4.2.
+
+* Mike Clarkson converted the documentation to LaTeX, and compiled the User
+ Interface chapter of the reference manual.
+
+
+How To Use This Section
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+This section is designed in two parts: the first half (roughly) covers
+background material, while the second half can be taken to the keyboard as a
+handy reference.
+
+When trying to answer questions of the form "how do I do blah", it is often best
+to find out how to do"blah" in straight Tk, and then convert this back into the
+corresponding :mod:`Tkinter` call. Python programmers can often guess at the
+correct Python command by looking at the Tk documentation. This means that in
+order to use Tkinter, you will have to know a little bit about Tk. This document
+can't fulfill that role, so the best we can do is point you to the best
+documentation that exists. Here are some hints:
+
+* The authors strongly suggest getting a copy of the Tk man pages. Specifically,
+ the man pages in the ``mann`` directory are most useful. The ``man3`` man pages
+ describe the C interface to the Tk library and thus are not especially helpful
+ for script writers.
+
+* Addison-Wesley publishes a book called Tcl and the Tk Toolkit by John
+ Ousterhout (ISBN 0-201-63337-X) which is a good introduction to Tcl and Tk for
+ the novice. The book is not exhaustive, and for many details it defers to the
+ man pages.
+
+* :file:`Tkinter.py` is a last resort for most, but can be a good place to go
+ when nothing else makes sense.

+A Simple Hello World Program
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+::

+ from Tkinter import *
+
+ class Application(Frame):
+ def say_hi(self):
+ print "hi there, everyone!"
+
+ def createWidgets(self):
+ self.QUIT = Button(self)
+ self.QUIT["text"] = "QUIT"

+ self.QUIT["command"] = self.quit
+
+ self.QUIT.pack({"side": "left"})
+
+ self.hi_there = Button(self)
+ self.hi_there["text"] = "Hello",
+ self.hi_there["command"] = self.say_hi
+

+ root.destroy()
+
+
+A (Very) Quick Look at Tcl/Tk
+-----------------------------
+
+The class hierarchy looks complicated, but in actual practice, application
+programmers almost always refer to the classes at the very bottom of the
+hierarchy.
+
+Notes:
+
+* These classes are provided for the purposes of organizing certain functions
+ under one namespace. They aren't meant to be instantiated independently.
+
+* The :class:`Tk` class is meant to be instantiated only once in an application.
+ Application programmers need not instantiate one explicitly, the system creates
+ one whenever any of the other classes are instantiated.
+
+* The :class:`Widget` class is not meant to be instantiated, it is meant only
+ for subclassing to make "real" widgets (in C++, this is called an 'abstract
+ class').
+
+To make use of this reference material, there will be times when you will need
+to know how to read short passages of Tk and how to identify the various parts
+of a Tk command. (See section :ref:`tkinter-basic-mapping` for the
+:mod:`Tkinter` equivalents of what's below.)
+
+Tk scripts are Tcl programs. Like all Tcl programs, Tk scripts are just lists
+of tokens separated by spaces. A Tk widget is just its *class*, the *options*
+that help configure it, and the *actions* that make it do useful things.
+
+To make a widget in Tk, the command is always of the form::
+
+ classCommand newPathname options
+
+*classCommand*
+ denotes which kind of widget to make (a button, a label, a menu...)
+
+*newPathname*
+ is the new name for this widget. All names in Tk must be unique. To help
+ enforce this, widgets in Tk are named with *pathnames*, just like files in a
+ file system. The top level widget, the *root*, is called ``.`` (period) and
+ children are delimited by more periods. For example,
+ ``.myApp.controlPanel.okButton`` might be the name of a widget.
+
+*options*
+ configure the widget's appearance and in some cases, its behavior. The options
+ come in the form of a list of flags and values. Flags are preceded by a '-',
+ like Unix shell command flags, and values are put in quotes if they are more
+ than one word.
+
+For example::
+
+ button .fred -fg red -text "hi there"
+ ^ ^ \_____________________/
+ | | |
+ class new options
+ command widget (-opt val -opt val ...)
+
+Once created, the pathname to the widget becomes a new command. This new
+*widget command* is the programmer's handle for getting the new widget to
+perform some *action*. In C, you'd express this as someAction(fred,
+someOptions), in C++, you would express this as fred.someAction(someOptions),
+and in Tk, you say::
+
+ .fred someAction someOptions
+
+Note that the object name, ``.fred``, starts with a dot.
+
+As you'd expect, the legal values for *someAction* will depend on the widget's
+class: ``.fred disable`` works if fred is a button (fred gets greyed out), but
+does not work if fred is a label (disabling of labels is not supported in Tk).
+
+The legal values of *someOptions* is action dependent. Some actions, like
+``disable``, require no arguments, others, like a text-entry box's ``delete``
+command, would need arguments to specify what range of text to delete.
+
+
+.. _tkinter-basic-mapping:
+
+Mapping Basic Tk into Tkinter
+-----------------------------
+
+Class commands in Tk correspond to class constructors in Tkinter. ::
+
+ button .fred =====> fred = Button()
+
+The master of an object is implicit in the new name given to it at creation
+time. In Tkinter, masters are specified explicitly. ::
+
+ button .panel.fred =====> fred = Button(panel)
+
+The configuration options in Tk are given in lists of hyphened tags followed by
+values. In Tkinter, options are specified as keyword-arguments in the instance
+constructor, and keyword-args for configure calls or as instance indices, in
+dictionary style, for established instances. See section
+:ref:`tkinter-setting-options` on setting options. ::
+
+ button .fred -fg red =====> fred = Button(panel, fg = "red")
+ .fred configure -fg red =====> fred["fg"] = red
+ OR ==> fred.config(fg = "red")
+
+In Tk, to perform an action on a widget, use the widget name as a command, and
+follow it with an action name, possibly with arguments (options). In Tkinter,
+you call methods on the class instance to invoke actions on the widget. The
+actions (methods) that a given widget can perform are listed in the Tkinter.py
+module. ::
+
+ .fred invoke =====> fred.invoke()
+
+To give a widget to the packer (geometry manager), you call pack with optional
+arguments. In Tkinter, the Pack class holds all this functionality, and the
+various forms of the pack command are implemented as methods. All widgets in
+:mod:`Tkinter` are subclassed from the Packer, and so inherit all the packing
+methods. See the :mod:`Tix` module documentation for additional information on
+the Form geometry manager. ::
+
+ pack .fred -side left =====> fred.pack(side = "left")
+
+
+How Tk and Tkinter are Related
+------------------------------
+
+From the top down:
+
+Your App Here (Python)
+ A Python application makes a :mod:`Tkinter` call.
+
+Tkinter (Python Module)
+ This call (say, for example, creating a button widget), is implemented in the
+ *Tkinter* module, which is written in Python. This Python function will parse
+ the commands and the arguments and convert them into a form that makes them look
+ as if they had come from a Tk script instead of a Python script.
+
+tkinter (C)
+ These commands and their arguments will be passed to a C function in the
+ *tkinter* - note the lowercase - extension module.
+
+Tk Widgets (C and Tcl)
+ This C function is able to make calls into other C modules, including the C
+ functions that make up the Tk library. Tk is implemented in C and some Tcl.
+ The Tcl part of the Tk widgets is used to bind certain default behaviors to
+ widgets, and is executed once at the point where the Python :mod:`Tkinter`
+ module is imported. (The user never sees this stage).
+
+Tk (C)
+ The Tk part of the Tk Widgets implement the final mapping to ...
+
+Xlib (C)
+ the Xlib library to draw graphics on the screen.
+
+
+Handy Reference
+---------------
+
+
+.. _tkinter-setting-options:
+
+Setting Options
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Options control things like the color and border width of a widget. Options can
+be set in three ways:
+
+At object creation time, using keyword arguments
+ ::
+
+ fred = Button(self, fg = "red", bg = "blue")
+
+After object creation, treating the option name like a dictionary index
+ ::
+
+ fred["fg"] = "red"
+ fred["bg"] = "blue"
+
+Use the config() method to update multiple attrs subsequent to object creation
+ ::
+
+ fred.config(fg = "red", bg = "blue")
+
+For a complete explanation of a given option and its behavior, see the Tk man
+pages for the widget in question.
+
+Note that the man pages list "STANDARD OPTIONS" and "WIDGET SPECIFIC OPTIONS"
+for each widget. The former is a list of options that are common to many
+widgets, the latter are the options that are idiosyncratic to that particular
+widget. The Standard Options are documented on the :manpage:`options(3)` man
+page.
+
+No distinction between standard and widget-specific options is made in this
+document. Some options don't apply to some kinds of widgets. Whether a given
+widget responds to a particular option depends on the class of the widget;
+buttons have a ``command`` option, labels do not.
+
+The options supported by a given widget are listed in that widget's man page, or
+can be queried at runtime by calling the :meth:`config` method without
+arguments, or by calling the :meth:`keys` method on that widget. The return
+value of these calls is a dictionary whose key is the name of the option as a
+string (for example, ``'relief'``) and whose values are 5-tuples.
+
+Some options, like ``bg`` are synonyms for common options with long names
+(``bg`` is shorthand for "background"). Passing the ``config()`` method the name
+of a shorthand option will return a 2-tuple, not 5-tuple. The 2-tuple passed
+back will contain the name of the synonym and the "real" option (such as
+``('bg', 'background')``).
+
++-------+---------------------------------+--------------+
+| Index | Meaning | Example |
++=======+=================================+==============+
+| 0 | option name | ``'relief'`` |
++-------+---------------------------------+--------------+
+| 1 | option name for database lookup | ``'relief'`` |
++-------+---------------------------------+--------------+
+| 2 | option class for database | ``'Relief'`` |
+| | lookup | |
++-------+---------------------------------+--------------+
+| 3 | default value | ``'raised'`` |
++-------+---------------------------------+--------------+
+| 4 | current value | ``'groove'`` |
++-------+---------------------------------+--------------+
+
+Example::
+
+ >>> print fred.config()
+ {'relief' : ('relief', 'relief', 'Relief', 'raised', 'groove')}
+
+Of course, the dictionary printed will include all the options available and
+their values. This is meant only as an example.
+
+
+The Packer
+^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. index:: single: packing (widgets)
+
+The packer is one of Tk's geometry-management mechanisms. Geometry managers
+are used to specify the relative positioning of the positioning of widgets
+within their container - their mutual *master*. In contrast to the more
+cumbersome *placer* (which is used less commonly, and we do not cover here), the
+packer takes qualitative relationship specification - *above*, *to the left of*,
+*filling*, etc - and works everything out to determine the exact placement
+coordinates for you.
+
+The size of any *master* widget is determined by the size of the "slave widgets"
+inside. The packer is used to control where slave widgets appear inside the
+master into which they are packed. You can pack widgets into frames, and frames
+into other frames, in order to achieve the kind of layout you desire.
+Additionally, the arrangement is dynamically adjusted to accommodate incremental
+changes to the configuration, once it is packed.
+
+Note that widgets do not appear until they have had their geometry specified
+with a geometry manager. It's a common early mistake to leave out the geometry
+specification, and then be surprised when the widget is created but nothing
+appears. A widget will appear only after it has had, for example, the packer's
+:meth:`pack` method applied to it.
+
+The pack() method can be called with keyword-option/value pairs that control
+where the widget is to appear within its container, and how it is to behave when
+the main application window is resized. Here are some examples::
+
+ fred.pack() # defaults to side = "top"
+ fred.pack(side = "left")
+ fred.pack(expand = 1)
+
+
+Packer Options
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+For more extensive information on the packer and the options that it can take,
+see the man pages and page 183 of John Ousterhout's book.
+
+anchor
+ Anchor type. Denotes where the packer is to place each slave in its parcel.
+
+expand
+ Boolean, ``0`` or ``1``.
+
+fill
+ Legal values: ``'x'``, ``'y'``, ``'both'``, ``'none'``.
+
+ipadx and ipady
+ A distance - designating internal padding on each side of the slave widget.
+
+padx and pady
+ A distance - designating external padding on each side of the slave widget.
+
+side
+ Legal values are: ``'left'``, ``'right'``, ``'top'``, ``'bottom'``.
+
+
+Coupling Widget Variables
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The current-value setting of some widgets (like text entry widgets) can be
+connected directly to application variables by using special options. These
+options are ``variable``, ``textvariable``, ``onvalue``, ``offvalue``, and
+``value``. This connection works both ways: if the variable changes for any
+reason, the widget it's connected to will be updated to reflect the new value.
+
+Unfortunately, in the current implementation of :mod:`Tkinter` it is not
+possible to hand over an arbitrary Python variable to a widget through a
+``variable`` or ``textvariable`` option. The only kinds of variables for which
+this works are variables that are subclassed from a class called Variable,
+defined in the :mod:`Tkinter` module.
+
+There are many useful subclasses of Variable already defined:
+:class:`StringVar`, :class:`IntVar`, :class:`DoubleVar`, and
+:class:`BooleanVar`. To read the current value of such a variable, call the
+:meth:`get` method on it, and to change its value you call the :meth:`!set`
+method. If you follow this protocol, the widget will always track the value of
+the variable, with no further intervention on your part.
+
+For example::
+
+ class App(Frame):
+ def __init__(self, master=None):
+ Frame.__init__(self, master)
+ self.pack()
+
+ self.entrythingy = Entry()
+ self.entrythingy.pack()
+
+ # here is the application variable
+ self.contents = StringVar()
+ # set it to some value
+ self.contents.set("this is a variable")
+ # tell the entry widget to watch this variable
+ self.entrythingy["textvariable"] = self.contents
+
+ # and here we get a callback when the user hits return.
+ # we will have the program print out the value of the
+ # application variable when the user hits return
+ self.entrythingy.bind('<Key-Return>',
+ self.print_contents)
+
+ def print_contents(self, event):
+ print "hi. contents of entry is now ---->", \
+ self.contents.get()
+
+
+The Window Manager
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. index:: single: window manager (widgets)
+
+In Tk, there is a utility command, ``wm``, for interacting with the window
+manager. Options to the ``wm`` command allow you to control things like titles,
+placement, icon bitmaps, and the like. In :mod:`Tkinter`, these commands have
+been implemented as methods on the :class:`Wm` class. Toplevel widgets are
+subclassed from the :class:`Wm` class, and so can call the :class:`Wm` methods
+directly.
+
+To get at the toplevel window that contains a given widget, you can often just
+refer to the widget's master. Of course if the widget has been packed inside of
+a frame, the master won't represent a toplevel window. To get at the toplevel
+window that contains an arbitrary widget, you can call the :meth:`_root` method.
+This method begins with an underscore to denote the fact that this function is
+part of the implementation, and not an interface to Tk functionality.
+
+Here are some examples of typical usage::
+
+ from Tkinter import *
+ class App(Frame):
+ def __init__(self, master=None):
+ Frame.__init__(self, master)
+ self.pack()
+
+
+ # create the application
+ myapp = App()
+
+ #
+ # here are method calls to the window manager class
+ #
+ myapp.master.title("My Do-Nothing Application")
+ myapp.master.maxsize(1000, 400)
+
+ # start the program
+ myapp.mainloop()
+
+
+Tk Option Data Types
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. index:: single: Tk Option Data Types
+
+anchor
+ Legal values are points of the compass: ``"n"``, ``"ne"``, ``"e"``, ``"se"``,
+ ``"s"``, ``"sw"``, ``"w"``, ``"nw"``, and also ``"center"``.
+
+bitmap
+ There are eight built-in, named bitmaps: ``'error'``, ``'gray25'``,
+ ``'gray50'``, ``'hourglass'``, ``'info'``, ``'questhead'``, ``'question'``,
+ ``'warning'``. To specify an X bitmap filename, give the full path to the file,
+ preceded with an ``@``, as in ``"@/usr/contrib/bitmap/gumby.bit"``.
+
+boolean
+ You can pass integers 0 or 1 or the strings ``"yes"`` or ``"no"`` .
+
+callback
+ This is any Python function that takes no arguments. For example::
+
+ def print_it():
+ print "hi there"
+ fred["command"] = print_it
+
+color
+ Colors can be given as the names of X colors in the rgb.txt file, or as strings
+ representing RGB values in 4 bit: ``"#RGB"``, 8 bit: ``"#RRGGBB"``, 12 bit"
+ ``"#RRRGGGBBB"``, or 16 bit ``"#RRRRGGGGBBBB"`` ranges, where R,G,B here
+ represent any legal hex digit. See page 160 of Ousterhout's book for details.
+
+cursor
+ The standard X cursor names from :file:`cursorfont.h` can be used, without the
+ ``XC_`` prefix. For example to get a hand cursor (:const:`XC_hand2`), use the
+ string ``"hand2"``. You can also specify a bitmap and mask file of your own.
+ See page 179 of Ousterhout's book.
+
+distance
+ Screen distances can be specified in either pixels or absolute distances.
+ Pixels are given as numbers and absolute distances as strings, with the trailing
+ character denoting units: ``c`` for centimetres, ``i`` for inches, ``m`` for
+ millimetres, ``p`` for printer's points. For example, 3.5 inches is expressed
+ as ``"3.5i"``.
+
+font
+ Tk uses a list font name format, such as ``{courier 10 bold}``. Font sizes with
+ positive numbers are measured in points; sizes with negative numbers are
+ measured in pixels.
+
+geometry
+ This is a string of the form ``widthxheight``, where width and height are
+ measured in pixels for most widgets (in characters for widgets displaying text).
+ For example: ``fred["geometry"] = "200x100"``.
+
+justify
+ Legal values are the strings: ``"left"``, ``"center"``, ``"right"``, and
+ ``"fill"``.
+
+region
+ This is a string with four space-delimited elements, each of which is a legal
+ distance (see above). For example: ``"2 3 4 5"`` and ``"3i 2i 4.5i 2i"`` and
+ ``"3c 2c 4c 10.43c"`` are all legal regions.
+
+relief
+ Determines what the border style of a widget will be. Legal values are:
+ ``"raised"``, ``"sunken"``, ``"flat"``, ``"groove"``, and ``"ridge"``.
+
+scrollcommand
+ This is almost always the :meth:`!set` method of some scrollbar widget, but can
+ be any widget method that takes a single argument. Refer to the file
+ :file:`Demo/tkinter/matt/canvas-with-scrollbars.py` in the Python source
+ distribution for an example.
+
+wrap:
+ Must be one of: ``"none"``, ``"char"``, or ``"word"``.
+
+
+Bindings and Events
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. index::
+ single: bind (widgets)
+ single: events (widgets)
+
+The bind method from the widget command allows you to watch for certain events
+and to have a callback function trigger when that event type occurs. The form
+of the bind method is::
+
+ def bind(self, sequence, func, add=''):
+
+where:
+
+sequence
+ is a string that denotes the target kind of event. (See the bind man page and
+ page 201 of John Ousterhout's book for details).
+
+func
+ is a Python function, taking one argument, to be invoked when the event occurs.
+ An Event instance will be passed as the argument. (Functions deployed this way
+ are commonly known as *callbacks*.)
+
+add
+ is optional, either ``''`` or ``'+'``. Passing an empty string denotes that
+ this binding is to replace any other bindings that this event is associated
+ with. Passing a ``'+'`` means that this function is to be added to the list
+ of functions bound to this event type.
+
+For example::
+
+ def turnRed(self, event):
+ event.widget["activeforeground"] = "red"
+
+ self.button.bind("<Enter>", self.turnRed)
+
+Notice how the widget field of the event is being accessed in the
+:meth:`turnRed` callback. This field contains the widget that caught the X
+event. The following table lists the other event fields you can access, and how
+they are denoted in Tk, which can be useful when referring to the Tk man pages.
+::
+
+ Tk Tkinter Event Field Tk Tkinter Event Field
+ -- ------------------- -- -------------------
+ %f focus %A char
+ %h height %E send_event
+ %k keycode %K keysym
+ %s state %N keysym_num
+ %t time %T type
+ %w width %W widget
+ %x x %X x_root
+ %y y %Y y_root
+
+
+The index Parameter
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+A number of widgets require"index" parameters to be passed. These are used to
+point at a specific place in a Text widget, or to particular characters in an
+Entry widget, or to particular menu items in a Menu widget.
+
+Entry widget indexes (index, view index, etc.)
+ Entry widgets have options that refer to character positions in the text being
+ displayed. You can use these :mod:`Tkinter` functions to access these special
+ points in text widgets:
+
+ AtEnd()
+ refers to the last position in the text
+
+ AtInsert()
+ refers to the point where the text cursor is
+
+ AtSelFirst()
+ indicates the beginning point of the selected text
+
+ AtSelLast()
+ denotes the last point of the selected text and finally
+
+ At(x[, y])
+ refers to the character at pixel location *x*, *y* (with *y* not used in the
+ case of a text entry widget, which contains a single line of text).
+
+Text widget indexes
+ The index notation for Text widgets is very rich and is best described in the Tk
+ man pages.
+
+Menu indexes (menu.invoke(), menu.entryconfig(), etc.)
+ Some options and methods for menus manipulate specific menu entries. Anytime a
+ menu index is needed for an option or a parameter, you may pass in:
+
+ * an integer which refers to the numeric position of the entry in the widget,
+ counted from the top, starting with 0;
+
+ * the string ``'active'``, which refers to the menu position that is currently
+ under the cursor;
+
+ * the string ``"last"`` which refers to the last menu item;
+
+ * An integer preceded by ``@``, as in ``@6``, where the integer is interpreted
+ as a y pixel coordinate in the menu's coordinate system;
+
+ * the string ``"none"``, which indicates no menu entry at all, most often used
+ with menu.activate() to deactivate all entries, and finally,
+
+ * a text string that is pattern matched against the label of the menu entry, as
+ scanned from the top of the menu to the bottom. Note that this index type is
+ considered after all the others, which means that matches for menu items
+ labelled ``last``, ``active``, or ``none`` may be interpreted as the above
+ literals, instead.
+
+
+Images
+^^^^^^
+
+Bitmap/Pixelmap images can be created through the subclasses of
+:class:`Tkinter.Image`:
+
+* :class:`BitmapImage` can be used for X11 bitmap data.
+
+* :class:`PhotoImage` can be used for GIF and PPM/PGM color bitmaps.
+
+Either type of image is created through either the ``file`` or the ``data``
+option (other options are available as well).
+
+The image object can then be used wherever an ``image`` option is supported by
+some widget (e.g. labels, buttons, menus). In these cases, Tk will not keep a
+reference to the image. When the last Python reference to the image object is
+deleted, the image data is deleted as well, and Tk will display an empty box
+wherever the image was used.

+
+This module provides constants which represent the numeric values of leaf nodes
+of the parse tree (terminal tokens). Refer to the file :file:`Grammar/Grammar`
+in the Python distribution for the definitions of the names in the context of
+the language grammar. The specific numeric values which the names map to may

+
+The module also provides a mapping from numeric codes to names and some
+functions. The functions mirror definitions in the Python C header files.

+:mod:`tokenize` --- Tokenizer for Python source
+===============================================
+
+.. module:: tokenize
+ :synopsis: Lexical scanner for Python source code.
+.. moduleauthor:: Ka Ping Yee
+.. sectionauthor:: Fred L. Drake, Jr. <[email protected]>
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/tokenize.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`tokenize` module provides a lexical scanner for Python source code,
+implemented in Python. The scanner in this module returns comments as tokens as
+well, making it useful for implementing "pretty-printers," including colorizers
+for on-screen displays.
+
+To simplify token stream handling, all :ref:`operators` and :ref:`delimiters`
+tokens are returned using the generic :data:`token.OP` token type. The exact
+type can be determined by checking the token ``string`` field on the
+:term:`named tuple` returned from :func:`tokenize.tokenize` for the character
+sequence that identifies a specific operator token.
+
+The primary entry point is a :term:`generator`:
+
+.. function:: generate_tokens(readline)
+
+ The :func:`generate_tokens` generator requires one argument, *readline*,
+ which must be a callable object which provides the same interface as the
+ :meth:`readline` method of built-in file objects (see section
+ :ref:`bltin-file-objects`). Each call to the function should return one line
+ of input as a string. Alternately, *readline* may be a callable object that
+ signals completion by raising :exc:`StopIteration`.
+
+ The generator produces 5-tuples with these members: the token type; the token
+ string; a 2-tuple ``(srow, scol)`` of ints specifying the row and column
+ where the token begins in the source; a 2-tuple ``(erow, ecol)`` of ints
+ specifying the row and column where the token ends in the source; and the
+ line on which the token was found. The line passed (the last tuple item) is
+ the *logical* line; continuation lines are included.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+An older entry point is retained for backward compatibility:
+
+
+.. function:: tokenize(readline[, tokeneater])
+
+ The :func:`tokenize` function accepts two parameters: one representing the input
+ stream, and one providing an output mechanism for :func:`tokenize`.
+
+ The first parameter, *readline*, must be a callable object which provides the
+ same interface as the :meth:`readline` method of built-in file objects (see
+ section :ref:`bltin-file-objects`). Each call to the function should return one
+ line of input as a string. Alternately, *readline* may be a callable object that
+ signals completion by raising :exc:`StopIteration`.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ Added :exc:`StopIteration` support.
+
+ The second parameter, *tokeneater*, must also be a callable object. It is
+ called once for each token, with five arguments, corresponding to the tuples
+ generated by :func:`generate_tokens`.
+
+All constants from the :mod:`token` module are also exported from
+:mod:`tokenize`, as are two additional token type values that might be passed to
+the *tokeneater* function by :func:`tokenize`:
+
+
+.. data:: COMMENT
+
+ Token value used to indicate a comment.
+
+
+.. data:: NL
+
+ Token value used to indicate a non-terminating newline. The NEWLINE token
+ indicates the end of a logical line of Python code; NL tokens are generated when
+ a logical line of code is continued over multiple physical lines.
+
+Another function is provided to reverse the tokenization process. This is useful
+for creating tools that tokenize a script, modify the token stream, and write
+back the modified script.
+
+
+.. function:: untokenize(iterable)
+
+ Converts tokens back into Python source code. The *iterable* must return
+ sequences with at least two elements, the token type and the token string. Any
+ additional sequence elements are ignored.
+
+ The reconstructed script is returned as a single string. The result is
+ guaranteed to tokenize back to match the input so that the conversion is
+ lossless and round-trips are assured. The guarantee applies only to the token
+ type and token string as the spacing between tokens (column positions) may
+ change.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+Example of a script re-writer that transforms float literals into Decimal
+objects::
+
+ def decistmt(s):
+ """Substitute Decimals for floats in a string of statements.
+
+ >>> from decimal import Decimal
+ >>> s = 'print +21.3e-5*-.1234/81.7'
+ >>> decistmt(s)
+ "print +Decimal ('21.3e-5')*-Decimal ('.1234')/Decimal ('81.7')"
+
+ >>> exec(s)
+ -3.21716034272e-007
+ >>> exec(decistmt(s))
+ -3.217160342717258261933904529E-7
+
+ """
+ result = []
+ g = generate_tokens(StringIO(s).readline) # tokenize the string
+ for toknum, tokval, _, _, _ in g:
+ if toknum == NUMBER and '.' in tokval: # replace NUMBER tokens
+ result.extend([
+ (NAME, 'Decimal'),
+ (OP, '('),
+ (STRING, repr(tokval)),
+ (OP, ')')
+ ])
+ else:
+ result.append((toknum, tokval))
+ return untokenize(result)

+:mod:`trace` --- Trace or track Python statement execution
+==========================================================
+
+.. module:: trace
+ :synopsis: Trace or track Python statement execution.
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/trace.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`trace` module allows you to trace program execution, generate
+annotated statement coverage listings, print caller/callee relationships and
+list functions executed during a program run. It can be used in another program
+or from the command line.
+
+.. _trace-cli:
+
+Command-Line Usage
+------------------
+
+The :mod:`trace` module can be invoked from the command line. It can be as
+simple as ::
+
+ python -m trace --count -C . somefile.py ...
+
+The above will execute :file:`somefile.py` and generate annotated listings of
+all Python modules imported during the execution into the current directory.
+
+.. program:: trace
+
+.. cmdoption:: --help
+
+ Display usage and exit.
+
+.. cmdoption:: --version
+
+ Display the version of the module and exit.
+
+Main options
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+At least one of the following options must be specified when invoking
+:mod:`trace`. The :option:`--listfuncs <-l>` option is mutually exclusive with
+the :option:`--trace <-t>` and :option:`--counts <-c>` options . When
+:option:`--listfuncs <-l>` is provided, neither :option:`--counts <-c>` nor
+:option:`--trace <-t>` are accepted, and vice versa.
+
+.. program:: trace
+
+.. cmdoption:: -c, --count
+
+ Produce a set of annotated listing files upon program completion that shows
+ how many times each statement was executed. See also
+ :option:`--coverdir <-C>`, :option:`--file <-f>` and
+ :option:`--no-report <-R>` below.
+
+.. cmdoption:: -t, --trace
+
+ Display lines as they are executed.
+
+.. cmdoption:: -l, --listfuncs
+
+ Display the functions executed by running the program.
+
+.. cmdoption:: -r, --report
+
+ Produce an annotated list from an earlier program run that used the
+ :option:`--count <-c>` and :option:`--file <-f>` option. This does not
+ execute any code.
+
+.. cmdoption:: -T, --trackcalls
+
+ Display the calling relationships exposed by running the program.
+
+Modifiers
+^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. program:: trace
+
+.. cmdoption:: -f, --file=<file>
+
+ Name of a file to accumulate counts over several tracing runs. Should be
+ used with the :option:`--count <-c>` option.
+
+.. cmdoption:: -C, --coverdir=<dir>
+
+ Directory where the report files go. The coverage report for
+ ``package.module`` is written to file :file:`{dir}/{package}/{module}.cover`.
+
+.. cmdoption:: -m, --missing
+
+ When generating annotated listings, mark lines which were not executed with
+ ``>>>>>>``.
+
+.. cmdoption:: -s, --summary
+
+ When using :option:`--count <-c>` or :option:`--report <-r>`, write a brief
+ summary to stdout for each file processed.
+
+.. cmdoption:: -R, --no-report
+
+ Do not generate annotated listings. This is useful if you intend to make
+ several runs with :option:`--count <-c>`, and then produce a single set of
+ annotated listings at the end.
+
+.. cmdoption:: -g, --timing
+
+ Prefix each line with the time since the program started. Only used while
+ tracing.
+
+Filters
+^^^^^^^
+
+These options may be repeated multiple times.
+
+.. program:: trace
+
+.. cmdoption:: --ignore-module=<mod>
+
+ Ignore each of the given module names and its submodules (if it is a
+ package). The argument can be a list of names separated by a comma.
+
+.. cmdoption:: --ignore-dir=<dir>
+
+ Ignore all modules and packages in the named directory and subdirectories.
+ The argument can be a list of directories separated by :data:`os.pathsep`.
+
+.. _trace-api:
+
+Programmatic Interface
+----------------------
+
+.. class:: Trace([count=1[, trace=1[, countfuncs=0[, countcallers=0[, ignoremods=()[, ignoredirs=()[, infile=None[, outfile=None[, timing=False]]]]]]]]])
+
+ Create an object to trace execution of a single statement or expression. All
+ parameters are optional. *count* enables counting of line numbers. *trace*
+ enables line execution tracing. *countfuncs* enables listing of the
+ functions called during the run. *countcallers* enables call relationship
+ tracking. *ignoremods* is a list of modules or packages to ignore.
+ *ignoredirs* is a list of directories whose modules or packages should be
+ ignored. *infile* is the name of the file from which to read stored count
+ information. *outfile* is the name of the file in which to write updated
+ count information. *timing* enables a timestamp relative to when tracing was
+ started to be displayed.
+
+ .. method:: run(cmd)
+
+ Execute the command and gather statistics from the execution with
+ the current tracing parameters. *cmd* must be a string or code object,
+ suitable for passing into :func:`exec`.
+
+ .. method:: runctx(cmd, globals=None, locals=None)
+
+ Execute the command and gather statistics from the execution with the
+ current tracing parameters, in the defined global and local
+ environments. If not defined, *globals* and *locals* default to empty
+ dictionaries.
+
+ .. method:: runfunc(func, *args, **kwds)
+
+ Call *func* with the given arguments under control of the :class:`Trace`
+ object with the current tracing parameters.
+
+ .. method:: results()
+
+ Return a :class:`CoverageResults` object that contains the cumulative
+ results of all previous calls to ``run``, ``runctx`` and ``runfunc``
+ for the given :class:`Trace` instance. Does not reset the accumulated
+ trace results.
+
+.. class:: CoverageResults
+
+ A container for coverage results, created by :meth:`Trace.results`. Should
+ not be created directly by the user.
+
+ .. method:: update(other)
+
+ Merge in data from another :class:`CoverageResults` object.
+
+ .. method:: write_results([show_missing=True[, summary=False[, coverdir=None]]])
+
+ Write coverage results. Set *show_missing* to show lines that had no
+ hits. Set *summary* to include in the output the coverage summary per
+ module. *coverdir* specifies the directory into which the coverage
+ result files will be output. If ``None``, the results for each source
+ file are placed in its directory.
+
+A simple example demonstrating the use of the programmatic interface::
+
+ import sys
+ import trace
+
+ # create a Trace object, telling it what to ignore, and whether to
+ # do tracing or line-counting or both.
+ tracer = trace.Trace(
+ ignoredirs=[sys.prefix, sys.exec_prefix],
+ trace=0,
+ count=1)
+
+ # run the new command using the given tracer
+ tracer.run('main()')
+
+ # make a report, placing output in the current directory
+ r = tracer.results()
+ r.write_results(show_missing=True, coverdir=".")

+:mod:`traceback` --- Print or retrieve a stack traceback
+========================================================
+
+.. module:: traceback
+ :synopsis: Print or retrieve a stack traceback.
+
+
+This module provides a standard interface to extract, format and print stack
+traces of Python programs. It exactly mimics the behavior of the Python
+interpreter when it prints a stack trace. This is useful when you want to print
+stack traces under program control, such as in a "wrapper" around the
+interpreter.
+
+.. index:: object: traceback
+
+The module uses traceback objects --- this is the object type that is stored in
+the variables :data:`sys.exc_traceback` (deprecated) and :data:`sys.last_traceback` and
+returned as the third item from :func:`sys.exc_info`.
+
+The module defines the following functions:
+
+
+.. function:: print_tb(traceback[, limit[, file]])
+
+ Print up to *limit* stack trace entries from *traceback*. If *limit* is omitted
+ or ``None``, all entries are printed. If *file* is omitted or ``None``, the
+ output goes to ``sys.stderr``; otherwise it should be an open file or file-like
+ object to receive the output.
+
+
+.. function:: print_exception(type, value, traceback[, limit[, file]])
+
+ Print exception information and up to *limit* stack trace entries from
+ *traceback* to *file*. This differs from :func:`print_tb` in the following ways:
+ (1) if *traceback* is not ``None``, it prints a header ``Traceback (most recent
+ call last):``; (2) it prints the exception *type* and *value* after the stack
+ trace; (3) if *type* is :exc:`SyntaxError` and *value* has the appropriate
+ format, it prints the line where the syntax error occurred with a caret
+ indicating the approximate position of the error.
+
+
+.. function:: print_exc([limit[, file]])
+
+ This is a shorthand for ``print_exception(sys.exc_type, sys.exc_value,
+ sys.exc_traceback, limit, file)``. (In fact, it uses :func:`sys.exc_info` to
+ retrieve the same information in a thread-safe way instead of using the
+ deprecated variables.)
+
+
+.. function:: format_exc([limit])
+
+ This is like ``print_exc(limit)`` but returns a string instead of printing to a
+ file.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+.. function:: print_last([limit[, file]])
+
+ This is a shorthand for ``print_exception(sys.last_type, sys.last_value,
+ sys.last_traceback, limit, file)``. In general it will work only after
+ an exception has reached an interactive prompt (see :data:`sys.last_type`).
+
+
+.. function:: print_stack([f[, limit[, file]]])
+
+ This function prints a stack trace from its invocation point. The optional *f*
+ argument can be used to specify an alternate stack frame to start. The optional
+ *limit* and *file* arguments have the same meaning as for
+ :func:`print_exception`.
+
+
+.. function:: extract_tb(traceback[, limit])
+
+ Return a list of up to *limit* "pre-processed" stack trace entries extracted
+ from the traceback object *traceback*. It is useful for alternate formatting of
+ stack traces. If *limit* is omitted or ``None``, all entries are extracted. A
+ "pre-processed" stack trace entry is a quadruple (*filename*, *line number*,
+ *function name*, *text*) representing the information that is usually printed
+ for a stack trace. The *text* is a string with leading and trailing whitespace
+ stripped; if the source is not available it is ``None``.
+
+
+.. function:: extract_stack([f[, limit]])
+
+ Extract the raw traceback from the current stack frame. The return value has
+ the same format as for :func:`extract_tb`. The optional *f* and *limit*
+ arguments have the same meaning as for :func:`print_stack`.
+
+
+.. function:: format_list(list)
+
+ Given a list of tuples as returned by :func:`extract_tb` or
+ :func:`extract_stack`, return a list of strings ready for printing. Each string
+ in the resulting list corresponds to the item with the same index in the
+ argument list. Each string ends in a newline; the strings may contain internal
+ newlines as well, for those items whose source text line is not ``None``.
+
+
+.. function:: format_exception_only(type, value)
+
+ Format the exception part of a traceback. The arguments are the exception type
+ and value such as given by ``sys.last_type`` and ``sys.last_value``. The return
+ value is a list of strings, each ending in a newline. Normally, the list
+ contains a single string; however, for :exc:`SyntaxError` exceptions, it
+ contains several lines that (when printed) display detailed information about
+ where the syntax error occurred. The message indicating which exception
+ occurred is the always last string in the list.
+
+
+.. function:: format_exception(type, value, tb[, limit])
+
+ Format a stack trace and the exception information. The arguments have the
+ same meaning as the corresponding arguments to :func:`print_exception`. The
+ return value is a list of strings, each ending in a newline and some containing
+ internal newlines. When these lines are concatenated and printed, exactly the
+ same text is printed as does :func:`print_exception`.
+
+
+.. function:: format_tb(tb[, limit])
+
+ A shorthand for ``format_list(extract_tb(tb, limit))``.
+
+
+.. function:: format_stack([f[, limit]])
+
+ A shorthand for ``format_list(extract_stack(f, limit))``.
+
+
+.. function:: tb_lineno(tb)
+
+ This function returns the current line number set in the traceback object. This
+ function was necessary because in versions of Python prior to 2.3 when the
+ :option:`-O` flag was passed to Python the ``tb.tb_lineno`` was not updated
+ correctly. This function has no use in versions past 2.3.
+
+
+.. _traceback-example:
+
+Traceback Examples
+------------------
+
+This simple example implements a basic read-eval-print loop, similar to (but
+less useful than) the standard Python interactive interpreter loop. For a more
+complete implementation of the interpreter loop, refer to the :mod:`code`
+module. ::
+
+ import sys, traceback
+
+ def run_user_code(envdir):
+ source = raw_input(">>> ")
+ try:
+ exec source in envdir
+ except:
+ print "Exception in user code:"
+ print '-'*60
+ traceback.print_exc(file=sys.stdout)
+ print '-'*60
+
+ envdir = {}
+ while 1:
+ run_user_code(envdir)
+
+
+The following example demonstrates the different ways to print and format the
+exception and traceback::
+
+ import sys, traceback
+
+ def lumberjack():
+ bright_side_of_death()
+
+ def bright_side_of_death():
+ return tuple()[0]
+
+ try:
+ lumberjack()
+ except IndexError:
+ exc_type, exc_value, exc_traceback = sys.exc_info()
+ print "*** print_tb:"
+ traceback.print_tb(exc_traceback, limit=1, file=sys.stdout)
+ print "*** print_exception:"
+ traceback.print_exception(exc_type, exc_value, exc_traceback,
+ limit=2, file=sys.stdout)
+ print "*** print_exc:"
+ traceback.print_exc()
+ print "*** format_exc, first and last line:"
+ formatted_lines = traceback.format_exc().splitlines()
+ print formatted_lines[0]
+ print formatted_lines[-1]
+ print "*** format_exception:"
+ print repr(traceback.format_exception(exc_type, exc_value,
+ exc_traceback))
+ print "*** extract_tb:"
+ print repr(traceback.extract_tb(exc_traceback))
+ print "*** format_tb:"
+ print repr(traceback.format_tb(exc_traceback))
+ print "*** tb_lineno:", exc_traceback.tb_lineno
+
+
+The output for the example would look similar to this::
+
+ *** print_tb:
+ File "<doctest...>", line 10, in <module>
+ lumberjack()
+ *** print_exception:
+ Traceback (most recent call last):
+ File "<doctest...>", line 10, in <module>
+ lumberjack()
+ File "<doctest...>", line 4, in lumberjack
+ bright_side_of_death()
+ IndexError: tuple index out of range
+ *** print_exc:
+ Traceback (most recent call last):

+:mod:`ttk` --- Tk themed widgets
+================================
+
+.. module:: ttk
+ :synopsis: Tk themed widget set
+.. sectionauthor:: Guilherme Polo <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. index:: single: ttk
+
+The :mod:`ttk` module provides access to the Tk themed widget set, which has
+been introduced in Tk 8.5. If Python is not compiled against Tk 8.5 code may
+still use this module as long as Tile is installed. However, some features
+provided by the new Tk, like anti-aliased font rendering under X11, window
+transparency (on X11 you will need a composition window manager) will be
+missing.
+
+The basic idea of :mod:`ttk` is to separate, to the extent possible, the code
+implementing a widget's behavior from the code implementing its appearance.
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ `Tk Widget Styling Support <http://www.tcl.tk/cgi-bin/tct/tip/48>`_
+ The document which brought up theming support for Tk
+
+
+Using Ttk
+---------
+
+To start using Ttk, import its module::
+
+ import ttk
+
+But code like this::
+
+ from Tkinter import *
+
+may optionally want to use this::
+
+ from Tkinter import *
+ from ttk import *
+
+And then several :mod:`ttk` widgets (:class:`Button`, :class:`Checkbutton`,
+:class:`Entry`, :class:`Frame`, :class:`Label`, :class:`LabelFrame`,
+:class:`Menubutton`, :class:`PanedWindow`, :class:`Radiobutton`, :class:`Scale`
+and :class:`Scrollbar`) will automatically substitute for the Tk widgets.
+
+This has the direct benefit of using the new widgets, giving better look & feel
+across platforms, but be aware that they are not totally compatible. The main
+difference is that widget options such as "fg", "bg" and others related to
+widget styling are no longer present in Ttk widgets. Use :class:`ttk.Style` to
+achieve the same (or better) styling.
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ `Converting existing applications to use the Tile widgets <http://tktable.sourceforge.net/tile/doc/converting.txt>`_
+ A text which talks in Tcl terms about differences typically found when
+ converting applications to use the new widgets.
+
+
+Ttk Widgets
+-----------
+
+Ttk comes with 17 widgets, 11 of which already exist in Tkinter:
+:class:`Button`, :class:`Checkbutton`, :class:`Entry`, :class:`Frame`,
+:class:`Label`, :class:`LabelFrame`, :class:`Menubutton`,
+:class:`PanedWindow`, :class:`Radiobutton`, :class:`Scale` and
+:class:`Scrollbar`. The 6 new widget classes are: :class:`Combobox`,
+:class:`Notebook`, :class:`Progressbar`, :class:`Separator`,
+:class:`Sizegrip` and :class:`Treeview`. All of these classes are
+subclasses of :class:`Widget`.
+
+As said previously, you will notice changes in look-and-feel as well in the
+styling code. To demonstrate the latter, a very simple example is shown below.
+
+Tk code::
+
+ l1 = Tkinter.Label(text="Test", fg="black", bg="white")
+ l2 = Tkinter.Label(text="Test", fg="black", bg="white")
+
+
+Corresponding Ttk code::
+
+ style = ttk.Style()
+ style.configure("BW.TLabel", foreground="black", background="white")
+
+ l1 = ttk.Label(text="Test", style="BW.TLabel")
+ l2 = ttk.Label(text="Test", style="BW.TLabel")
+
+For more information about TtkStyling_ read the :class:`Style` class
+documentation.
+
+Widget
+------
+
+:class:`ttk.Widget` defines standard options and methods supported by Tk
+themed widgets and is not supposed to be directly instantiated.
+
+
+Standard Options
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+All the :mod:`ttk` widgets accept the following options:
+
+ +-----------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | Option | Description |
+ +===========+==============================================================+
+ | class | Specifies the window class. The class is used when querying |
+ | | the option database for the window's other options, to |
+ | | determine the default bindtags for the window, and to select |
+ | | the widget's default layout and style. This is a read-only |
+ | | option which may only be specified when the window is |
+ | | created. |
+ +-----------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | cursor | Specifies the mouse cursor to be used for the widget. If set |
+ | | to the empty string (the default), the cursor is inherited |
+ | | from the parent widget. |
+ +-----------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | takefocus | Determines whether the window accepts the focus during |
+ | | keyboard traversal. 0, 1 or an empty string is returned. |
+ | | If 0, the window should be skipped entirely |
+ | | during keyboard traversal. If 1, the window |
+ | | should receive the input focus as long as it is viewable. |
+ | | An empty string means that the traversal scripts make the |
+ | | decision about whether or not to focus on the window. |
+ +-----------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | style | May be used to specify a custom widget style. |
+ +-----------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+
+
+Scrollable Widget Options
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The following options are supported by widgets that are controlled by a
+scrollbar.
+
+ +----------------+---------------------------------------------------------+
+ | option | description |
+ +================+=========================================================+
+ | xscrollcommand | Used to communicate with horizontal scrollbars. |
+ | | |
+ | | When the view in the widget's window changes, the widget|
+ | | will generate a Tcl command based on the scrollcommand. |
+ | | |
+ | | Usually this option consists of the |
+ | | :meth:`Scrollbar.set` method of some scrollbar. This |
+ | | will cause |
+ | | the scrollbar to be updated whenever the view in the |
+ | | window changes. |
+ +----------------+---------------------------------------------------------+
+ | yscrollcommand | Used to communicate with vertical scrollbars. |
+ | | For more information, see above. |
+ +----------------+---------------------------------------------------------+
+
+
+Label Options
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The following options are supported by labels, buttons and other button-like
+widgets.
+
+.. tabularcolumns:: |p{0.2\textwidth}|p{0.7\textwidth}|
+..
+
+ +--------------+-----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | option | description |
+ +==============+===========================================================+
+ | text | Specifies a text string to be displayed inside the widget.|
+ +--------------+-----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | textvariable | Specifies a name whose value will be used in place of the |
+ | | text option resource. |
+ +--------------+-----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | underline | If set, specifies the index (0-based) of a character to |
+ | | underline in the text string. The underline character is |
+ | | used for mnemonic activation. |
+ +--------------+-----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | image | Specifies an image to display. This is a list of 1 or more|
+ | | elements. The first element is the default image name. The|
+ | | rest of the list is a sequence of statespec/value pairs as|
+ | | defined by :meth:`Style.map`, specifying different images |
+ | | to use when the widget is in a particular state or a |
+ | | combination of states. All images in the list should have |
+ | | the same size. |
+ +--------------+-----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | compound | Specifies how to display the image relative to the text, |
+ | | in the case both text and image options are present. |
+ | | Valid values are: |
+ | | |
+ | | * text: display text only |
+ | | * image: display image only |
+ | | * top, bottom, left, right: display image above, below, |
+ | | left of, or right of the text, respectively. |
+ | | * none: the default. display the image if present, |
+ | | otherwise the text. |
+ +--------------+-----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | width | If greater than zero, specifies how much space, in |
+ | | character widths, to allocate for the text label; if less |
+ | | than zero, specifies a minimum width. If zero or |
+ | | unspecified, the natural width of the text label is used. |
+ +--------------+-----------------------------------------------------------+
+
+
+Compatibility Options
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+ +--------+----------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | option | description |
+ +========+================================================================+
+ | state | May be set to "normal" or "disabled" to control the "disabled" |
+ | | state bit. This is a write-only option: setting it changes the |
+ | | widget state, but the :meth:`Widget.state` method does not |
+ | | affect this option. |
+ +--------+----------------------------------------------------------------+
+
+Widget States
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The widget state is a bitmap of independent state flags.
+
+ +------------+-------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | flag | description |
+ +============+=============================================================+
+ | active | The mouse cursor is over the widget and pressing a mouse |
+ | | button will cause some action to occur. |
+ +------------+-------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | disabled | Widget is disabled under program control. |
+ +------------+-------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | focus | Widget has keyboard focus. |
+ +------------+-------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | pressed | Widget is being pressed. |
+ +------------+-------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | selected | "On", "true", or "current" for things like Checkbuttons and |
+ | | radiobuttons. |
+ +------------+-------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | background | Windows and Mac have a notion of an "active" or foreground |
+ | | window. The *background* state is set for widgets in a |
+ | | background window, and cleared for those in the foreground |
+ | | window. |
+ +------------+-------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | readonly | Widget should not allow user modification. |
+ +------------+-------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | alternate | A widget-specific alternate display format. |
+ +------------+-------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | invalid | The widget's value is invalid. |
+ +------------+-------------------------------------------------------------+
+
+A state specification is a sequence of state names, optionally prefixed with
+an exclamation point indicating that the bit is off.
+
+
+ttk.Widget
+^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Besides the methods described below, the :class:`ttk.Widget` class supports the
+:meth:`Tkinter.Widget.cget` and :meth:`Tkinter.Widget.configure` methods.
+
+.. class:: Widget
+
+ .. method:: identify(x, y)
+
+ Returns the name of the element at position *x* *y*, or the empty string
+ if the point does not lie within any element.
+
+ *x* and *y* are pixel coordinates relative to the widget.
+
+
+ .. method:: instate(statespec, callback=None, *args, **kw)
+
+ Test the widget's state. If a callback is not specified, returns True
+ if the widget state matches *statespec* and False otherwise. If callback
+ is specified then it is called with *args* if widget state matches
+ *statespec*.
+
+
+ .. method:: state([statespec=None])
+
+ Modify or read widget state. If *statespec* is specified, sets the
+ widget state accordingly and returns a new *statespec* indicating
+ which flags were changed. If *statespec* is not specified, returns
+ the currently-enabled state flags.
+
+ *statespec* will usually be a list or a tuple.
+
+
+Combobox
+--------
+
+The :class:`ttk.Combobox` widget combines a text field with a pop-down list of
+values. This widget is a subclass of :class:`Entry`.
+
+Besides the methods inherited from :class:`Widget` (:meth:`Widget.cget`,
+:meth:`Widget.configure`, :meth:`Widget.identify`, :meth:`Widget.instate`
+and :meth:`Widget.state`) and those inherited from :class:`Entry`
+(:meth:`Entry.bbox`, :meth:`Entry.delete`, :meth:`Entry.icursor`,
+:meth:`Entry.index`, :meth:`Entry.inset`, :meth:`Entry.selection`,
+:meth:`Entry.xview`), this class has some other methods, described at
+:class:`ttk.Combobox`.
+
+
+Options
+^^^^^^^
+
+This widget accepts the following options:
+
+ +-----------------+--------------------------------------------------------+
+ | option | description |
+ +=================+========================================================+
+ | exportselection | Boolean value. If set, the widget selection is linked |
+ | | to the Window Manager selection (which can be returned |
+ | | by invoking :meth:`Misc.selection_get`, for example). |
+ +-----------------+--------------------------------------------------------+
+ | justify | Specifies how the text is aligned within the widget. |
+ | | One of "left", "center", or "right". |
+ +-----------------+--------------------------------------------------------+
+ | height | Specifies the height of the pop-down listbox, in rows. |
+ +-----------------+--------------------------------------------------------+
+ | postcommand | A script (possibly registered with |
+ | | :meth:`Misc.register`) that |
+ | | is called immediately before displaying the values. It |
+ | | may specify which values to display. |
+ +-----------------+--------------------------------------------------------+
+ | state | One of "normal", "readonly", or "disabled". In the |
+ | | "readonly" state, the value may not be edited directly,|
+ | | and the user can only select one of the values from the|
+ | | dropdown list. In the "normal" state, the text field is|
+ | | directly editable. In the "disabled" state, no |
+ | | interaction is possible. |
+ +-----------------+--------------------------------------------------------+
+ | textvariable | Specifies a name whose value is linked to the widget |
+ | | value. Whenever the value associated with that name |
+ | | changes, the widget value is updated, and vice versa. |
+ | | See :class:`Tkinter.StringVar`. |
+ +-----------------+--------------------------------------------------------+
+ | values | Specifies the list of values to display in the |
+ | | drop-down listbox. |
+ +-----------------+--------------------------------------------------------+
+ | width | Specifies an integer value indicating the desired width|
+ | | of the entry window, in average-size characters of the |
+ | | widget's font. |
+ +-----------------+--------------------------------------------------------+
+
+
+Virtual events
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The combobox widget generates a **<<ComboboxSelected>>** virtual event
+when the user selects an element from the list of values.
+
+
+ttk.Combobox
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. class:: Combobox
+
+ .. method:: current([newindex=None])
+
+ If *newindex* is specified, sets the combobox value to the element
+ position *newindex*. Otherwise, returns the index of the current value or
+ -1 if the current value is not in the values list.
+
+
+ .. method:: get()
+
+ Returns the current value of the combobox.
+
+
+ .. method:: set(value)
+
+ Sets the value of the combobox to *value*.
+
+
+Notebook
+--------
+
+The Ttk Notebook widget manages a collection of windows and displays a single
+one at a time. Each child window is associated with a tab, which the user
+may select to change the currently-displayed window.
+
+
+Options
+^^^^^^^
+
+This widget accepts the following specific options:
+
+ +---------+----------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | option | description |
+ +=========+================================================================+
+ | height | If present and greater than zero, specifies the desired height |
+ | | of the pane area (not including internal padding or tabs). |
+ | | Otherwise, the maximum height of all panes is used. |
+ +---------+----------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | padding | Specifies the amount of extra space to add around the outside |
+ | | of the notebook. The padding is a list of up to four length |
+ | | specifications: left top right bottom. If fewer than four |
+ | | elements are specified, bottom defaults to top, right defaults |
+ | | to left, and top defaults to left. |
+ +---------+----------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | width | If present and greater than zero, specifies the desired width |
+ | | of the pane area (not including internal padding). Otherwise, |
+ | | the maximum width of all panes is used. |
+ +---------+----------------------------------------------------------------+
+
+
+Tab Options
+^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+There are also specific options for tabs:
+
+ +-----------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | option | description |
+ +===========+==============================================================+
+ | state | Either "normal", "disabled" or "hidden". If "disabled", then |
+ | | the tab is not selectable. If "hidden", then the tab is not |
+ | | shown. |
+ +-----------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | sticky | Specifies how the child window is positioned within the pane |
+ | | area. Value is a string containing zero or more of the |
+ | | characters "n", "s", "e" or "w". Each letter refers to a |
+ | | side (north, south, east or west) that the child window will |
+ | | stick to, as per the :meth:`grid` geometry manager. |
+ +-----------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | padding | Specifies the amount of extra space to add between the |
+ | | notebook and this pane. Syntax is the same as for the option |
+ | | padding used by this widget. |
+ +-----------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | text | Specifies a text to be displayed in the tab. |
+ +-----------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | image | Specifies an image to display in the tab. See the option |
+ | | image described in :class:`Widget`. |
+ +-----------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | compound | Specifies how to display the image relative to the text, in |
+ | | the case both text and image options are present. See |
+ | | `Label Options`_ for legal values. |
+ +-----------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | underline | Specifies the index (0-based) of a character to underline in |
+ | | the text string. The underlined character is used for |
+ | | mnemonic activation if :meth:`Notebook.enable_traversal` is |
+ | | called. |
+ +-----------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+
+
+Tab Identifiers
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The *tab_id* present in several methods of :class:`ttk.Notebook` may take any
+of the following forms:
+
+* An integer between zero and the number of tabs.
+* The name of a child window.
+* A positional specification of the form "@x,y", which identifies the tab.
+* The literal string "current", which identifies the currently-selected tab.
+* The literal string "end", which returns the number of tabs (only valid for
+ :meth:`Notebook.index`).
+
+
+Virtual Events
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+This widget generates a **<<NotebookTabChanged>>** virtual event after a new
+tab is selected.
+
+
+ttk.Notebook
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. class:: Notebook
+
+ .. method:: add(child, **kw)
+
+ Adds a new tab to the notebook.
+
+ If window is currently managed by the notebook but hidden, it is
+ restored to its previous position.
+
+ See `Tab Options`_ for the list of available options.
+
+
+ .. method:: forget(tab_id)
+
+ Removes the tab specified by *tab_id*, unmaps and unmanages the
+ associated window.
+
+
+ .. method:: hide(tab_id)
+
+ Hides the tab specified by *tab_id*.
+
+ The tab will not be displayed, but the associated window remains
+ managed by the notebook and its configuration remembered. Hidden tabs
+ may be restored with the :meth:`add` command.
+
+
+ .. method:: identify(x, y)
+
+ Returns the name of the tab element at position *x*, *y*, or the empty
+ string if none.
+
+
+ .. method:: index(tab_id)
+
+ Returns the numeric index of the tab specified by *tab_id*, or the total
+ number of tabs if *tab_id* is the string "end".
+
+
+ .. method:: insert(pos, child, **kw)
+
+ Inserts a pane at the specified position.
+
+ *pos* is either the string "end", an integer index, or the name of a
+ managed child. If *child* is already managed by the notebook, moves it to
+ the specified position.
+
+ See `Tab Options`_ for the list of available options.
+
+
+ .. method:: select([tab_id])
+
+ Selects the specified *tab_id*.
+
+ The associated child window will be displayed, and the
+ previously-selected window (if different) is unmapped. If *tab_id* is
+ omitted, returns the widget name of the currently selected pane.
+
+
+ .. method:: tab(tab_id, option=None, **kw)
+
+ Query or modify the options of the specific *tab_id*.
+
+ If *kw* is not given, returns a dictionary of the tab option values. If
+ *option* is specified, returns the value of that *option*. Otherwise,
+ sets the options to the corresponding values.
+
+
+ .. method:: tabs()
+
+ Returns a list of windows managed by the notebook.
+
+
+ .. method:: enable_traversal()
+
+ Enable keyboard traversal for a toplevel window containing this notebook.
+
+ This will extend the bindings for the toplevel window containing the
+ notebook as follows:
+
+ * Control-Tab: selects the tab following the currently selected one.
+ * Shift-Control-Tab: selects the tab preceding the currently selected one.
+ * Alt-K: where K is the mnemonic (underlined) character of any tab, will
+ select that tab.
+
+ Multiple notebooks in a single toplevel may be enabled for traversal,
+ including nested notebooks. However, notebook traversal only works
+ properly if all panes have the notebook they are in as master.
+
+
+Progressbar
+-----------
+
+The :class:`ttk.Progressbar` widget shows the status of a long-running
+operation. It can operate in two modes: determinate mode shows the amount
+completed relative to the total amount of work to be done, and indeterminate
+mode provides an animated display to let the user know that something is
+happening.
+
+
+Options
+^^^^^^^
+
+This widget accepts the following specific options:
+
+ +----------+---------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | option | description |
+ +==========+===============================================================+
+ | orient | One of "horizontal" or "vertical". Specifies the orientation |
+ | | of the progress bar. |
+ +----------+---------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | length | Specifies the length of the long axis of the progress bar |
+ | | (width if horizontal, height if vertical). |
+ +----------+---------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | mode | One of "determinate" or "indeterminate". |
+ +----------+---------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | maximum | A number specifying the maximum value. Defaults to 100. |
+ +----------+---------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | value | The current value of the progress bar. In "determinate" mode, |
+ | | this represents the amount of work completed. In |
+ | | "indeterminate" mode, it is interpreted as modulo *maximum*; |
+ | | that is, the progress bar completes one "cycle" when its value|
+ | | increases by *maximum*. |
+ +----------+---------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | variable | A name which is linked to the option value. If specified, the |
+ | | value of the progress bar is automatically set to the value of|
+ | | this name whenever the latter is modified. |
+ +----------+---------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | phase | Read-only option. The widget periodically increments the value|
+ | | of this option whenever its value is greater than 0 and, in |
+ | | determinate mode, less than maximum. This option may be used |
+ | | by the current theme to provide additional animation effects. |
+ +----------+---------------------------------------------------------------+
+
+
+ttk.Progressbar
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. class:: Progressbar
+
+ .. method:: start([interval])
+
+ Begin autoincrement mode: schedules a recurring timer event that calls
+ :meth:`Progressbar.step` every *interval* milliseconds. If omitted,
+ *interval* defaults to 50 milliseconds.
+
+
+ .. method:: step([amount])
+
+ Increments the progress bar's value by *amount*.
+
+ *amount* defaults to 1.0 if omitted.
+
+
+ .. method:: stop()
+
+ Stop autoincrement mode: cancels any recurring timer event initiated by
+ :meth:`Progressbar.start` for this progress bar.
+
+
+Separator
+---------
+
+The :class:`ttk.Separator` widget displays a horizontal or vertical separator
+bar.
+
+It has no other methods besides the ones inherited from :class:`ttk.Widget`.
+
+
+Options
+^^^^^^^
+
+This widget accepts the following specific option:
+
+ +--------+----------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | option | description |
+ +========+================================================================+
+ | orient | One of "horizontal" or "vertical". Specifies the orientation of|
+ | | the separator. |
+ +--------+----------------------------------------------------------------+
+
+
+Sizegrip
+--------
+
+The :class:`ttk.Sizegrip` widget (also known as a grow box) allows the user to
+resize the containing toplevel window by pressing and dragging the grip.
+
+This widget has neither specific options nor specific methods, besides the
+ones inherited from :class:`ttk.Widget`.
+
+
+Platform-specific notes
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+* On Mac OS X, toplevel windows automatically include a built-in size grip
+ by default. Adding a :class:`Sizegrip` is harmless, since the built-in
+ grip will just mask the widget.
+
+
+Bugs
+^^^^
+
+* If the containing toplevel's position was specified relative to the right
+ or bottom of the screen (e.g. ....), the :class:`Sizegrip` widget will
+ not resize the window.
+* This widget supports only "southeast" resizing.
+
+
+Treeview
+--------
+
+The :class:`ttk.Treeview` widget displays a hierarchical collection of items.
+Each item has a textual label, an optional image, and an optional list of data
+values. The data values are displayed in successive columns after the tree
+label.
+
+The order in which data values are displayed may be controlled by setting
+the widget option ``displaycolumns``. The tree widget can also display column
+headings. Columns may be accessed by number or symbolic names listed in the
+widget option columns. See `Column Identifiers`_.
+
+Each item is identified by an unique name. The widget will generate item IDs
+if they are not supplied by the caller. There is a distinguished root item,
+named ``{}``. The root item itself is not displayed; its children appear at the
+top level of the hierarchy.
+
+Each item also has a list of tags, which can be used to associate event bindings
+with individual items and control the appearance of the item.
+
+The Treeview widget supports horizontal and vertical scrolling, according to
+the options described in `Scrollable Widget Options`_ and the methods
+:meth:`Treeview.xview` and :meth:`Treeview.yview`.
+
+
+Options
+^^^^^^^
+
+This widget accepts the following specific options:
+
+.. tabularcolumns:: |p{0.2\textwidth}|p{0.7\textwidth}|
+..
+
+ +----------------+--------------------------------------------------------+
+ | option | description |
+ +================+========================================================+
+ | columns | A list of column identifiers, specifying the number of |
+ | | columns and their names. |
+ +----------------+--------------------------------------------------------+
+ | displaycolumns | A list of column identifiers (either symbolic or |
+ | | integer indices) specifying which data columns are |
+ | | displayed and the order in which they appear, or the |
+ | | string "#all". |
+ +----------------+--------------------------------------------------------+
+ | height | Specifies the number of rows which should be visible. |
+ | | Note: the requested width is determined from the sum |
+ | | of the column widths. |
+ +----------------+--------------------------------------------------------+
+ | padding | Specifies the internal padding for the widget. The |
+ | | padding is a list of up to four length specifications. |
+ +----------------+--------------------------------------------------------+
+ | selectmode | Controls how the built-in class bindings manage the |
+ | | selection. One of "extended", "browse" or "none". |
+ | | If set to "extended" (the default), multiple items may |
+ | | be selected. If "browse", only a single item will be |
+ | | selected at a time. If "none", the selection will not |
+ | | be changed. |
+ | | |
+ | | Note that the application code and tag bindings can set|
+ | | the selection however they wish, regardless of the |
+ | | value of this option. |
+ +----------------+--------------------------------------------------------+
+ | show | A list containing zero or more of the following values,|
+ | | specifying which elements of the tree to display. |
+ | | |
+ | | * tree: display tree labels in column #0. |
+ | | * headings: display the heading row. |
+ | | |
+ | | The default is "tree headings", i.e., show all |
+ | | elements. |
+ | | |
+ | | **Note**: Column #0 always refers to the tree column, |
+ | | even if show="tree" is not specified. |
+ +----------------+--------------------------------------------------------+
+
+
+Item Options
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The following item options may be specified for items in the insert and item
+widget commands.
+
+ +--------+---------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | option | description |
+ +========+===============================================================+
+ | text | The textual label to display for the item. |
+ +--------+---------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | image | A Tk Image, displayed to the left of the label. |
+ +--------+---------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | values | The list of values associated with the item. |
+ | | |
+ | | Each item should have the same number of values as the widget |
+ | | option columns. If there are fewer values than columns, the |
+ | | remaining values are assumed empty. If there are more values |
+ | | than columns, the extra values are ignored. |
+ +--------+---------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | open | True/False value indicating whether the item's children should|
+ | | be displayed or hidden. |
+ +--------+---------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | tags | A list of tags associated with this item. |
+ +--------+---------------------------------------------------------------+
+
+
+Tag Options
+^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The following options may be specified on tags:
+
+ +------------+-----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | option | description |
+ +============+===========================================================+
+ | foreground | Specifies the text foreground color. |
+ +------------+-----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | background | Specifies the cell or item background color. |
+ +------------+-----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | font | Specifies the font to use when drawing text. |
+ +------------+-----------------------------------------------------------+
+ | image | Specifies the item image, in case the item's image option |
+ | | is empty. |
+ +------------+-----------------------------------------------------------+
+
+
+Column Identifiers
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Column identifiers take any of the following forms:
+
+* A symbolic name from the list of columns option.
+* An integer n, specifying the nth data column.
+* A string of the form #n, where n is an integer, specifying the nth display
+ column.
+
+Notes:
+
+* Item's option values may be displayed in a different order than the order
+ in which they are stored.
+* Column #0 always refers to the tree column, even if show="tree" is not
+ specified.
+
+A data column number is an index into an item's option values list; a display
+column number is the column number in the tree where the values are displayed.
+Tree labels are displayed in column #0. If option displaycolumns is not set,
+then data column n is displayed in column #n+1. Again, **column #0 always
+refers to the tree column**.
+
+
+Virtual Events
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The Treeview widget generates the following virtual events.
+
+ +--------------------+--------------------------------------------------+
+ | event | description |
+ +====================+==================================================+
+ | <<TreeviewSelect>> | Generated whenever the selection changes. |
+ +--------------------+--------------------------------------------------+
+ | <<TreeviewOpen>> | Generated just before settings the focus item to |
+ | | open=True. |
+ +--------------------+--------------------------------------------------+
+ | <<TreeviewClose>> | Generated just after setting the focus item to |
+ | | open=False. |
+ +--------------------+--------------------------------------------------+
+
+The :meth:`Treeview.focus` and :meth:`Treeview.selection` methods can be used
+to determine the affected item or items.

+
+ See `Item Options`_ for the list of available points.
+
+
+ .. method:: item(item[, option[, **kw]])
+

+Ttk Styling
+-----------
+
+Each widget in :mod:`ttk` is assigned a style, which specifies the set of
+elements making up the widget and how they are arranged, along with dynamic and
+default settings for element options. By default the style name is the same as
+the widget's class name, but it may be overridden by the widget's style
+option. If the class name of a widget is unknown, use the method
+:meth:`Misc.winfo_class` (somewidget.winfo_class()).
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ `Tcl'2004 conference presentation <http://tktable.sourceforge.net/tile/tile-tcl2004.pdf>`_
+ This document explains how the theme engine works
+
+
+.. class:: Style
+
+ This class is used to manipulate the style database.
+
+
+ .. method:: configure(style, query_opt=None, **kw)
+
+ Query or set the default value of the specified option(s) in *style*.
+
+ Each key in *kw* is an option and each value is a string identifying
+ the value for that option.
+
+ For example, to change every default button to be a flat button with some
+ padding and a different background color do::
+
+ import ttk
+ import Tkinter
+
+ root = Tkinter.Tk()
+
+ ttk.Style().configure("TButton", padding=6, relief="flat",
+ background="#ccc")
+
+ btn = ttk.Button(text="Sample")
+ btn.pack()
+
+ root.mainloop()
+
+
+ .. method:: map(style, query_opt=None, **kw)
+
+ Query or sets dynamic values of the specified option(s) in *style*.
+
+ Each key in *kw* is an option and each value should be a list or a
+ tuple (usually) containing statespecs grouped in tuples, lists, or
+ something else of your preference. A statespec is a compound of one
+ or more states and then a value.
+
+ An example::
+
+ import Tkinter
+ import ttk
+
+ root = Tkinter.Tk()
+
+ style = ttk.Style()
+ style.map("C.TButton",
+ foreground=[('pressed', 'red'), ('active', 'blue')],
+ background=[('pressed', '!disabled', 'black'), ('active', 'white')]
+ )
+
+ colored_btn = ttk.Button(text="Test", style="C.TButton").pack()
+
+ root.mainloop()
+
+
+ Note that the order of the (states, value) sequences for an
+ option matters. In the previous example, if you change the
+ order to ``[('active', 'blue'), ('pressed', 'red')]`` in the
+ foreground option, for example, you would get a blue foreground
+ when the widget is in the active or pressed states.
+
+ .. method:: lookup(style, option, state=None, default=None)
+
+ Returns the value specified for *option* in *style*.
+
+ If *state* is specified, it is expected to be a sequence of one or more
+ states. If the *default* argument is set, it is used as a fallback value
+ in case no specification for option is found.
+
+ To check what font a Button uses by default, do::
+
+ import ttk
+
+ print ttk.Style().lookup("TButton", "font")
+
+
+ .. method:: layout(style, layoutspec=None)
+
+ Define the widget layout for given *style*. If *layoutspec* is omitted,
+ return the layout specification for given style.
+
+ *layoutspec*, if specified, is expected to be a list or some other
+ sequence type (excluding strings), where each item should be a tuple and
+ the first item is the layout name and the second item should have the
+ format described in `Layouts`_.
+
+ To understand the format, see the following example (it is not
+ intended to do anything useful)::
+
+ import ttk
+ import Tkinter
+
+ root = Tkinter.Tk()
+
+ style = ttk.Style()
+ style.layout("TMenubutton", [
+ ("Menubutton.background", None),
+ ("Menubutton.button", {"children":
+ [("Menubutton.focus", {"children":
+ [("Menubutton.padding", {"children":
+ [("Menubutton.label", {"side": "left", "expand": 1})]
+ })]
+ })]
+ }),
+ ])
+
+ mbtn = ttk.Menubutton(text='Text')
+ mbtn.pack()
+ root.mainloop()
+
+
+ .. method:: element_create(elementname, etype, *args, **kw)
+
+ Create a new element in the current theme, of the given *etype* which is
+ expected to be either "image", "from" or "vsapi". The latter is only
+ available in Tk 8.6a for Windows XP and Vista and is not described here.
+
+ If "image" is used, *args* should contain the default image name followed
+ by statespec/value pairs (this is the imagespec), and *kw* may have the
+ following options:
+
+ * border=padding
+ padding is a list of up to four integers, specifying the left, top,
+ right, and bottom borders, respectively.
+
+ * height=height
+ Specifies a minimum height for the element. If less than zero, the
+ base image's height is used as a default.
+
+ * padding=padding
+ Specifies the element's interior padding. Defaults to border's value
+ if not specified.
+
+ * sticky=spec
+ Specifies how the image is placed within the final parcel. spec
+ contains zero or more characters "n", "s", "w", or "e".
+
+ * width=width
+ Specifies a minimum width for the element. If less than zero, the
+ base image's width is used as a default.
+
+ If "from" is used as the value of *etype*,
+ :meth:`element_create` will clone an existing
+ element. *args* is expected to contain a themename, from which
+ the element will be cloned, and optionally an element to clone from.
+ If this element to clone from is not specified, an empty element will
+ be used. *kw* is discarded.
+
+
+ .. method:: element_names()
+
+ Returns the list of elements defined in the current theme.
+
+
+ .. method:: element_options(elementname)
+
+ Returns the list of *elementname*'s options.
+
+
+ .. method:: theme_create(themename, parent=None, settings=None)
+
+ Create a new theme.
+
+ It is an error if *themename* already exists. If *parent* is specified,
+ the new theme will inherit styles, elements and layouts from the parent
+ theme. If *settings* are present they are expected to have the same
+ syntax used for :meth:`theme_settings`.
+
+
+ .. method:: theme_settings(themename, settings)
+
+ Temporarily sets the current theme to *themename*, apply specified
+ *settings* and then restore the previous theme.
+
+ Each key in *settings* is a style and each value may contain the keys
+ 'configure', 'map', 'layout' and 'element create' and they are expected
+ to have the same format as specified by the methods
+ :meth:`Style.configure`, :meth:`Style.map`, :meth:`Style.layout` and
+ :meth:`Style.element_create` respectively.
+
+ As an example, let's change the Combobox for the default theme a bit::
+
+ import ttk
+ import Tkinter
+
+ root = Tkinter.Tk()
+
+ style = ttk.Style()
+ style.theme_settings("default", {
+ "TCombobox": {
+ "configure": {"padding": 5},
+ "map": {
+ "background": [("active", "green2"),
+ ("!disabled", "green4")],
+ "fieldbackground": [("!disabled", "green3")],
+ "foreground": [("focus", "OliveDrab1"),
+ ("!disabled", "OliveDrab2")]
+ }
+ }
+ })
+
+ combo = ttk.Combobox().pack()
+
+ root.mainloop()
+
+
+ .. method:: theme_names()
+
+ Returns a list of all known themes.
+
+
+ .. method:: theme_use([themename])
+
+ If *themename* is not given, returns the theme in use. Otherwise, sets
+ the current theme to *themename*, refreshes all widgets and emits a
+ <<ThemeChanged>> event.
+
+
+Layouts
+^^^^^^^
+
+A layout can be just None, if it takes no options, or a dict of
+options specifying how to arrange the element. The layout mechanism
+uses a simplified version of the pack geometry manager: given an
+initial cavity, each element is allocated a parcel. Valid
+options/values are:
+
+ * side: whichside
+ Specifies which side of the cavity to place the element; one of
+ top, right, bottom or left. If omitted, the element occupies the
+ entire cavity.
+
+ * sticky: nswe
+ Specifies where the element is placed inside its allocated parcel.
+
+ * unit: 0 or 1
+ If set to 1, causes the element and all of its descendants to be treated as
+ a single element for the purposes of :meth:`Widget.identify` et al. It's
+ used for things like scrollbar thumbs with grips.
+
+ * children: [sublayout... ]
+ Specifies a list of elements to place inside the element. Each
+ element is a tuple (or other sequence type) where the first item is
+ the layout name, and the other is a `Layout`_.

+
+Turtle graphics is a popular way for introducing programming to kids. It was
+part of the original Logo programming language developed by Wally Feurzig and
+Seymour Papert in 1966.
+
+Imagine a robotic turtle starting at (0, 0) in the x-y plane. After an ``import turtle``, give it the
+command ``turtle.forward(15)``, and it moves (on-screen!) 15 pixels in the
+direction it is facing, drawing a line as it moves. Give it the command
+``turtle.right(25)``, and it rotates in-place 25 degrees clockwise.
+
+By combining together these and similar commands, intricate shapes and pictures
+can easily be drawn.
+
+The :mod:`turtle` module is an extended reimplementation of the same-named
+module from the Python standard distribution up to version Python 2.5.
+
+It tries to keep the merits of the old turtle module and to be (nearly) 100%
+compatible with it. This means in the first place to enable the learning
+programmer to use all the commands, classes and methods interactively when using
+the module from within IDLE run with the ``-n`` switch.
+
+The turtle module provides turtle graphics primitives, in both object-oriented
+and procedure-oriented ways. Because it uses :mod:`Tkinter` for the underlying
+graphics, it needs a version of Python installed with Tk support.
+
+The object-oriented interface uses essentially two+two classes:
+
+1. The :class:`TurtleScreen` class defines graphics windows as a playground for
+ the drawing turtles. Its constructor needs a :class:`Tkinter.Canvas` or a
+ :class:`ScrolledCanvas` as argument. It should be used when :mod:`turtle` is
+ used as part of some application.
+
+ The function :func:`Screen` returns a singleton object of a
+ :class:`TurtleScreen` subclass. This function should be used when
+ :mod:`turtle` is used as a standalone tool for doing graphics.
+ As a singleton object, inheriting from its class is not possible.
+
+ All methods of TurtleScreen/Screen also exist as functions, i.e. as part of
+ the procedure-oriented interface.
+
+2. :class:`RawTurtle` (alias: :class:`RawPen`) defines Turtle objects which draw
+ on a :class:`TurtleScreen`. Its constructor needs a Canvas, ScrolledCanvas
+ or TurtleScreen as argument, so the RawTurtle objects know where to draw.
+
+ Derived from RawTurtle is the subclass :class:`Turtle` (alias: :class:`Pen`),
+ which draws on "the" :class:`Screen` - instance which is automatically
+ created, if not already present.
+
+ All methods of RawTurtle/Turtle also exist as functions, i.e. part of the
+ procedure-oriented interface.
+
+The procedural interface provides functions which are derived from the methods
+of the classes :class:`Screen` and :class:`Turtle`. They have the same names as
+the corresponding methods. A screen object is automatically created whenever a
+function derived from a Screen method is called. An (unnamed) turtle object is
+automatically created whenever any of the functions derived from a Turtle method
+is called.
+
+To use multiple turtles an a screen one has to use the object-oriented interface.
+
+.. note::
+ In the following documentation the argument list for functions is given.
+ Methods, of course, have the additional first argument *self* which is
+ omitted here.

+
+ ``fillcolor(colorstring)``
+ Set fillcolor to *colorstring*, which is a Tk color specification string,
+ such as ``"red"``, ``"yellow"``, or ``"#33cc8c"``.
+
+ ``fillcolor((r, g, b))``
+ Set fillcolor to the RGB color represented by the tuple of *r*, *g*, and

+
+Visibility
+~~~~~~~~~~
+
+.. function:: hideturtle()
+ ht()
+
+ Make the turtle invisible. It's a good idea to do this while you're in the

+
+Appearance
+~~~~~~~~~~
+
+.. function:: shape(name=None)
+
+ :param name: a string which is a valid shapename
+
+ Set turtle shape to shape with given *name* or, if name is not given, return
+ name of current shape. Shape with *name* must exist in the TurtleScreen's
+ shape dictionary. Initially there are the following polygon shapes: "arrow",
+ "turtle", "circle", "square", "triangle", "classic". To learn about how to

+ :param rmode: one of the strings "auto", "user", "noresize"
+
+ Set resizemode to one of the values: "auto", "user", "noresize". If *rmode*
+ is not given, return current resizemode. Different resizemodes have the
+ following effects:
+
+ - "auto": adapts the appearance of the turtle corresponding to the value of pensize.
+ - "user": adapts the appearance of the turtle according to the values of
+ stretchfactor and outlinewidth (outline), which are set by
+ :func:`shapesize`.
+ - "noresize": no adaption of the turtle's appearance takes place.
+
+ resizemode("user") is called by :func:`shapesize` when used with arguments.

+
+ Return or set the pen's attributes x/y-stretchfactors and/or outline. Set
+ resizemode to "user". If and only if resizemode is set to "user", the turtle
+ will be displayed stretched according to its stretchfactors: *stretch_wid* is
+ stretchfactor perpendicular to its orientation, *stretch_len* is
+ stretchfactor in direction of its orientation, *outline* determines the width
+ of the shapes's outline.

+
+ Subsequently, clicking and dragging the Turtle will move it across
+ the screen thereby producing handdrawings (if pen is down).

+ >>> register_shape("myFavouriteShape", p)
+
+
+.. function:: clone()
+
+ Create and return a clone of the turtle with same position, heading and

+
+ .. doctest::
+
+ >>> mick = Turtle()
+ >>> joe = mick.clone()
+
+
+.. function:: getturtle()
+ getpen()
+
+ Return the Turtle object itself. Only reasonable use: as a function to
+ return the "anonymous turtle":

+ >>> pet = getturtle()
+ >>> pet.fd(50)
+ >>> pet
+ <turtle.Turtle object at 0x...>
+
+
+.. function:: getscreen()
+
+ Return the :class:`TurtleScreen` object the turtle is drawing on.
+ TurtleScreen methods can then be called for that object.
+
+ .. doctest::
+
+ >>> ts = turtle.getscreen()
+ >>> ts
+ <turtle._Screen object at 0x...>
+ >>> ts.bgcolor("pink")
+
+
+.. function:: setundobuffer(size)
+
+ :param size: an integer or ``None``
+
+ Set or disable undobuffer. If *size* is an integer an empty undobuffer of
+ given size is installed. *size* gives the maximum number of turtle actions
+ that can be undone by the :func:`undo` method/function. If *size* is
+ ``None``, the undobuffer is disabled.

+.. _compoundshapes:
+
+Excursus about the use of compound shapes
+-----------------------------------------
+
+To use compound turtle shapes, which consist of several polygons of different
+color, you must use the helper class :class:`Shape` explicitly as described
+below:
+
+1. Create an empty Shape object of type "compound".
+2. Add as many components to this object as desired, using the
+ :meth:`addcomponent` method.
+
+ For example:
+
+ .. doctest::
+
+ >>> s = Shape("compound")
+ >>> poly1 = ((0,0),(10,-5),(0,10),(-10,-5))
+ >>> s.addcomponent(poly1, "red", "blue")
+ >>> poly2 = ((0,0),(10,-5),(-10,-5))
+ >>> s.addcomponent(poly2, "blue", "red")
+
+3. Now add the Shape to the Screen's shapelist and use it:
+
+ .. doctest::
+
+ >>> register_shape("myshape", s)
+ >>> shape("myshape")
+
+
+.. note::
+
+ The :class:`Shape` class is used internally by the :func:`register_shape`
+ method in different ways. The application programmer has to deal with the
+ Shape class *only* when using compound shapes like shown above!
+
+
+Methods of TurtleScreen/Screen and corresponding functions
+==========================================================
+
+Most of the examples in this section refer to a TurtleScreen instance called
+``screen``.
+
+.. doctest::

+
+.. function:: bgcolor(*args)
+
+ :param args: a color string or three numbers in the range 0..colormode or a
+ 3-tuple of such numbers
+

+
+.. function:: bgpic(picname=None)
+
+ :param picname: a string, name of a gif-file or ``"nopic"``, or ``None``
+
+ Set background image or return name of current backgroundimage. If *picname*
+ is a filename, set the corresponding image as background. If *picname* is
+ ``"nopic"``, delete background image, if present. If *picname* is ``None``,
+ return the filename of the current backgroundimage. ::
+
+ >>> screen.bgpic()
+ 'nopic'
+ >>> screen.bgpic("landscape.gif")
+ >>> screen.bgpic()
+ "landscape.gif"
+
+
+.. function:: clear()
+ clearscreen()
+
+ Delete all drawings and all turtles from the TurtleScreen. Reset the now
+ empty TurtleScreen to its initial state: white background, no background
+ image, no event bindings and tracing on.
+
+ .. note::
+ This TurtleScreen method is available as a global function only under the
+ name ``clearscreen``. The global function ``clear`` is another one
+ derived from the Turtle method ``clear``.
+
+
+.. function:: reset()
+ resetscreen()
+
+ Reset all Turtles on the Screen to their initial state.
+
+ .. note::
+ This TurtleScreen method is available as a global function only under the
+ name ``resetscreen``. The global function ``reset`` is another one
+ derived from the Turtle method ``reset``.
+
+
+.. function:: screensize(canvwidth=None, canvheight=None, bg=None)
+
+ :param canvwidth: positive integer, new width of canvas in pixels
+ :param canvheight: positive integer, new height of canvas in pixels
+ :param bg: colorstring or color-tuple, new background color
+
+ If no arguments are given, return current (canvaswidth, canvasheight). Else
+ resize the canvas the turtles are drawing on. Do not alter the drawing
+ window. To observe hidden parts of the canvas, use the scrollbars. With this
+ method, one can make visible those parts of a drawing which were outside the
+ canvas before.
+
+ >>> screen.screensize()
+ (400, 300)
+ >>> screen.screensize(2000,1500)
+ >>> screen.screensize()
+ (2000, 1500)
+
+ e.g. to search for an erroneously escaped turtle ;-)
+
+
+.. function:: setworldcoordinates(llx, lly, urx, ury)
+
+ :param llx: a number, x-coordinate of lower left corner of canvas
+ :param lly: a number, y-coordinate of lower left corner of canvas
+ :param urx: a number, x-coordinate of upper right corner of canvas
+ :param ury: a number, y-coordinate of upper right corner of canvas
+
+ Set up user-defined coordinate system and switch to mode "world" if
+ necessary. This performs a ``screen.reset()``. If mode "world" is already
+ active, all drawings are redrawn according to the new coordinates.
+
+ **ATTENTION**: in user-defined coordinate systems angles may appear
+ distorted.
+
+ .. doctest::

+
+
+Animation control
+-----------------
+
+.. function:: delay(delay=None)
+
+ :param delay: positive integer
+
+ Set or return the drawing *delay* in milliseconds. (This is approximately
+ the time interval between two consecutive canvas updates.) The longer the
+ drawing delay, the slower the animation.
+
+ Optional argument:
+
+ .. doctest::
+
+ >>> screen.delay()
+ 10
+ >>> screen.delay(5)
+ >>> screen.delay()
+ 5
+
+
+.. function:: tracer(n=None, delay=None)
+
+ :param n: nonnegative integer
+ :param delay: nonnegative integer
+
+ Turn turtle animation on/off and set delay for update drawings. If *n* is
+ given, only each n-th regular screen update is really performed. (Can be
+ used to accelerate the drawing of complex graphics.) Second argument sets
+ delay value (see :func:`delay`).
+
+ .. doctest::
+
+ >>> screen.tracer(8, 25)
+ >>> dist = 2
+ >>> for i in range(200):
+ ... fd(dist)
+ ... rt(90)
+ ... dist += 2
+
+
+.. function:: update()
+
+ Perform a TurtleScreen update. To be used when tracer is turned off.
+
+See also the RawTurtle/Turtle method :func:`speed`.
+
+
+Using screen events
+-------------------
+
+.. function:: listen(xdummy=None, ydummy=None)
+
+ Set focus on TurtleScreen (in order to collect key-events). Dummy arguments
+ are provided in order to be able to pass :func:`listen` to the onclick method.
+
+
+.. function:: onkey(fun, key)
+
+ :param fun: a function with no arguments or ``None``
+ :param key: a string: key (e.g. "a") or key-symbol (e.g. "space")
+
+ Bind *fun* to key-release event of key. If *fun* is ``None``, event bindings
+ are removed. Remark: in order to be able to register key-events, TurtleScreen
+ must have the focus. (See method :func:`listen`.)
+
+ .. doctest::
+
+ >>> def f():
+ ... fd(50)
+ ... lt(60)
+ ...
+ >>> screen.onkey(f, "Up")
+ >>> screen.listen()
+
+
+.. function:: onclick(fun, btn=1, add=None)
+ onscreenclick(fun, btn=1, add=None)
+
+ :param fun: a function with two arguments which will be called with the
+ coordinates of the clicked point on the canvas
+ :param num: number of the mouse-button, defaults to 1 (left mouse button)
+ :param add: ``True`` or ``False`` -- if ``True``, a new binding will be
+ added, otherwise it will replace a former binding
+
+ Bind *fun* to mouse-click events on this screen. If *fun* is ``None``,
+ existing bindings are removed.
+
+ Example for a TurtleScreen instance named ``screen`` and a Turtle instance
+ named turtle:
+
+ .. doctest::
+
+ >>> screen.onclick(turtle.goto) # Subsequently clicking into the TurtleScreen will
+ >>> # make the turtle move to the clicked point.
+ >>> screen.onclick(None) # remove event binding again
+
+ .. note::
+ This TurtleScreen method is available as a global function only under the
+ name ``onscreenclick``. The global function ``onclick`` is another one
+ derived from the Turtle method ``onclick``.
+
+
+.. function:: ontimer(fun, t=0)
+
+ :param fun: a function with no arguments
+ :param t: a number >= 0
+
+ Install a timer that calls *fun* after *t* milliseconds.
+
+ .. doctest::
+
+ >>> running = True
+ >>> def f():
+ ... if running:
+ ... fd(50)
+ ... lt(60)
+ ... screen.ontimer(f, 250)
+ >>> f() ### makes the turtle march around
+ >>> running = False
+
+
+Settings and special methods
+----------------------------
+
+.. function:: mode(mode=None)
+
+ :param mode: one of the strings "standard", "logo" or "world"
+
+ Set turtle mode ("standard", "logo" or "world") and perform reset. If mode
+ is not given, current mode is returned.
+
+ Mode "standard" is compatible with old :mod:`turtle`. Mode "logo" is
+ compatible with most Logo turtle graphics. Mode "world" uses user-defined
+ "world coordinates". **Attention**: in this mode angles appear distorted if
+ ``x/y`` unit-ratio doesn't equal 1.

+.. function:: exitonclick()
+
+ Bind bye() method to mouse clicks on the Screen.
+
+
+ If the value "using_IDLE" in the configuration dictionary is ``False``
+ (default value), also enter mainloop. Remark: If IDLE with the ``-n`` switch
+ (no subprocess) is used, this value should be set to ``True`` in
+ :file:`turtle.cfg`. In this case IDLE's own mainloop is active also for the
+ client script.
+
+
+.. function:: setup(width=_CFG["width"], height=_CFG["height"], startx=_CFG["leftright"], starty=_CFG["topbottom"])
+
+ Set the size and position of the main window. Default values of arguments
+ are stored in the configuration dictionary and can be changed via a
+ :file:`turtle.cfg` file.

+
+
+The public classes of the module :mod:`turtle`
+==============================================
+
+
+.. class:: RawTurtle(canvas)
+ RawPen(canvas)
+
+ :param canvas: a :class:`Tkinter.Canvas`, a :class:`ScrolledCanvas` or a
+ :class:`TurtleScreen`
+
+ Create a turtle. The turtle has all methods described above as "methods of
+ Turtle/RawTurtle".
+
+
+.. class:: Turtle()
+
+ Subclass of RawTurtle, has the same interface but draws on a default
+ :class:`Screen` object created automatically when needed for the first time.
+
+
+.. class:: TurtleScreen(cv)
+
+ :param cv: a :class:`Tkinter.Canvas`
+
+ Provides screen oriented methods like :func:`setbg` etc. that are described
+ above.
+
+.. class:: Screen()
+
+ Subclass of TurtleScreen, with :ref:`four methods added <screenspecific>`.
+
+
+.. class:: ScrolledCanvas(master)
+
+ :param master: some Tkinter widget to contain the ScrolledCanvas, i.e.
+ a Tkinter-canvas with scrollbars added
+
+ Used by class Screen, which thus automatically provides a ScrolledCanvas as
+ playground for the turtles.
+
+.. class:: Shape(type_, data)
+
+ :param type\_: one of the strings "polygon", "image", "compound"
+
+ Data structure modeling shapes. The pair ``(type_, data)`` must follow this
+ specification:
+
+
+ =========== ===========
+ *type_* *data*
+ =========== ===========
+ "polygon" a polygon-tuple, i.e. a tuple of pairs of coordinates
+ "image" an image (in this form only used internally!)
+ "compound" ``None`` (a compound shape has to be constructed using the
+ :meth:`addcomponent` method)
+ =========== ===========
+
+ .. method:: addcomponent(poly, fill, outline=None)
+
+ :param poly: a polygon, i.e. a tuple of pairs of numbers
+ :param fill: a color the *poly* will be filled with
+ :param outline: a color for the poly's outline (if given)
+
+ Example:
+
+ .. doctest::
+
+ >>> poly = ((0,0),(10,-5),(0,10),(-10,-5))
+ >>> s = Shape("compound")
+ >>> s.addcomponent(poly, "red", "blue")
+ >>> # ... add more components and then use register_shape()
+
+ See :ref:`compoundshapes`.
+
+
+.. class:: Vec2D(x, y)
+
+ A two-dimensional vector class, used as a helper class for implementing
+ turtle graphics. May be useful for turtle graphics programs too. Derived
+ from tuple, so a vector is a tuple!
+
+ Provides (for *a*, *b* vectors, *k* number):
+
+ * ``a + b`` vector addition
+ * ``a - b`` vector subtraction
+ * ``a * b`` inner product
+ * ``k * a`` and ``a * k`` multiplication with scalar
+ * ``abs(a)`` absolute value of a
+ * ``a.rotate(angle)`` rotation
+
+
+Help and configuration
+======================
+
+How to use help
+---------------
+
+The public methods of the Screen and Turtle classes are documented extensively
+via docstrings. So these can be used as online-help via the Python help
+facilities:
+
+- When using IDLE, tooltips show the signatures and first lines of the
+ docstrings of typed in function-/method calls.
+
+- Calling :func:`help` on methods or functions displays the docstrings::
+
+ >>> help(Screen.bgcolor)
+ Help on method bgcolor in module turtle:
+
+ bgcolor(self, *args) unbound turtle.Screen method
+ Set or return backgroundcolor of the TurtleScreen.
+
+ Arguments (if given): a color string or three numbers
+ in the range 0..colormode or a 3-tuple of such numbers.
+
+
+ >>> screen.bgcolor("orange")
+ >>> screen.bgcolor()
+ "orange"
+ >>> screen.bgcolor(0.5,0,0.5)
+ >>> screen.bgcolor()
+ "#800080"
+
+ >>> help(Turtle.penup)
+ Help on method penup in module turtle:
+
+ penup(self) unbound turtle.Turtle method
+ Pull the pen up -- no drawing when moving.
+
+ Aliases: penup | pu | up
+
+ No argument
+
+ >>> turtle.penup()
+
+- The docstrings of the functions which are derived from methods have a modified
+ form::
+
+ >>> help(bgcolor)
+ Help on function bgcolor in module turtle:
+
+ bgcolor(*args)
+ Set or return backgroundcolor of the TurtleScreen.
+
+ Arguments (if given): a color string or three numbers
+ in the range 0..colormode or a 3-tuple of such numbers.
+
+ Example::
+
+ >>> bgcolor("orange")
+ >>> bgcolor()
+ "orange"
+ >>> bgcolor(0.5,0,0.5)
+ >>> bgcolor()
+ "#800080"
+
+ >>> help(penup)
+ Help on function penup in module turtle:
+
+ penup()
+ Pull the pen up -- no drawing when moving.
+
+ Aliases: penup | pu | up
+
+ No argument
+
+ Example:
+ >>> penup()
+
+These modified docstrings are created automatically together with the function
+definitions that are derived from the methods at import time.
+
+
+Translation of docstrings into different languages
+--------------------------------------------------
+
+There is a utility to create a dictionary the keys of which are the method names
+and the values of which are the docstrings of the public methods of the classes
+Screen and Turtle.
+
+.. function:: write_docstringdict(filename="turtle_docstringdict")
+
+ :param filename: a string, used as filename
+
+ Create and write docstring-dictionary to a Python script with the given
+ filename. This function has to be called explicitly (it is not used by the
+ turtle graphics classes). The docstring dictionary will be written to the
+ Python script :file:`{filename}.py`. It is intended to serve as a template
+ for translation of the docstrings into different languages.
+
+If you (or your students) want to use :mod:`turtle` with online help in your
+native language, you have to translate the docstrings and save the resulting
+file as e.g. :file:`turtle_docstringdict_german.py`.
+
+If you have an appropriate entry in your :file:`turtle.cfg` file this dictionary
+will be read in at import time and will replace the original English docstrings.
+
+At the time of this writing there are docstring dictionaries in German and in
+Italian. (Requests please to [email protected].)
+
+
+
+How to configure Screen and Turtles
+-----------------------------------
+
+The built-in default configuration mimics the appearance and behaviour of the
+old turtle module in order to retain best possible compatibility with it.
+
+If you want to use a different configuration which better reflects the features
+of this module or which better fits to your needs, e.g. for use in a classroom,
+you can prepare a configuration file ``turtle.cfg`` which will be read at import
+time and modify the configuration according to its settings.
+
+The built in configuration would correspond to the following turtle.cfg::
+
+ width = 0.5
+ height = 0.75
+ leftright = None
+ topbottom = None
+ canvwidth = 400
+ canvheight = 300
+ mode = standard
+ colormode = 1.0
+ delay = 10
+ undobuffersize = 1000
+ shape = classic
+ pencolor = black
+ fillcolor = black
+ resizemode = noresize
+ visible = True
+ language = english
+ exampleturtle = turtle
+ examplescreen = screen
+ title = Python Turtle Graphics
+ using_IDLE = False
+
+Short explanation of selected entries:
+
+- The first four lines correspond to the arguments of the :meth:`Screen.setup`
+ method.
+- Line 5 and 6 correspond to the arguments of the method
+ :meth:`Screen.screensize`.
+- *shape* can be any of the built-in shapes, e.g: arrow, turtle, etc. For more
+ info try ``help(shape)``.
+- If you want to use no fillcolor (i.e. make the turtle transparent), you have
+ to write ``fillcolor = ""`` (but all nonempty strings must not have quotes in
+ the cfg-file).
+- If you want to reflect the turtle its state, you have to use ``resizemode =
+ auto``.
+- If you set e.g. ``language = italian`` the docstringdict
+ :file:`turtle_docstringdict_italian.py` will be loaded at import time (if
+ present on the import path, e.g. in the same directory as :mod:`turtle`.
+- The entries *exampleturtle* and *examplescreen* define the names of these
+ objects as they occur in the docstrings. The transformation of
+ method-docstrings to function-docstrings will delete these names from the
+ docstrings.
+- *using_IDLE*: Set this to ``True`` if you regularly work with IDLE and its -n
+ switch ("no subprocess"). This will prevent :func:`exitonclick` to enter the
+ mainloop.
+
+There can be a :file:`turtle.cfg` file in the directory where :mod:`turtle` is
+stored and an additional one in the current working directory. The latter will
+override the settings of the first one.
+
+The :file:`Demo/turtle` directory contains a :file:`turtle.cfg` file. You can
+study it as an example and see its effects when running the demos (preferably
+not from within the demo-viewer).
+
+
+Demo scripts
+============
+
+There is a set of demo scripts in the turtledemo directory located in the
+:file:`Demo/turtle` directory in the source distribution.
+
+It contains:
+
+- a set of 15 demo scripts demonstrating different features of the new module
+ :mod:`turtle`
+- a demo viewer :file:`turtleDemo.py` which can be used to view the sourcecode
+ of the scripts and run them at the same time. 14 of the examples can be
+ accessed via the Examples menu; all of them can also be run standalone.
+- The example :file:`turtledemo_two_canvases.py` demonstrates the simultaneous
+ use of two canvases with the turtle module. Therefore it only can be run
+ standalone.
+- There is a :file:`turtle.cfg` file in this directory, which also serves as an
+ example for how to write and use such files.
+
+The demoscripts are:

+:mod:`types` --- Names for built-in types
+=========================================
+
+.. module:: types
+ :synopsis: Names for built-in types.
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/types.py`
+
+--------------
+
+This module defines names for some object types that are used by the standard
+Python interpreter, but not for the types defined by various extension modules.
+Also, it does not include some of the types that arise during processing such as
+the ``listiterator`` type. It is safe to use ``from types import *`` --- the
+module does not export any names besides the ones listed here. New names
+exported by future versions of this module will all end in ``Type``.
+
+Typical use is for functions that do different things depending on their
+argument types, like the following::
+
+ from types import *
+ def delete(mylist, item):
+ if type(item) is IntType:
+ del mylist[item]
+ else:
+ mylist.remove(item)
+
+Starting in Python 2.2, built-in factory functions such as :func:`int` and
+:func:`str` are also names for the corresponding types. This is now the
+preferred way to access the type instead of using the :mod:`types` module.
+Accordingly, the example above should be written as follows::
+
+ def delete(mylist, item):
+ if isinstance(item, int):
+ del mylist[item]
+ else:
+ mylist.remove(item)
+
+The module defines the following names:
+
+
+.. data:: NoneType
+
+ The type of ``None``.
+
+
+.. data:: TypeType
+
+ .. index:: builtin: type
+
+ The type of type objects (such as returned by :func:`type`); alias of the
+ built-in :class:`type`.
+
+
+.. data:: BooleanType
+
+ The type of the :class:`bool` values ``True`` and ``False``; alias of the
+ built-in :class:`bool`.

+
+ The type of integers (e.g. ``1``); alias of the built-in :class:`int`.
+
+
+.. data:: LongType
+
+ The type of long integers (e.g. ``1L``); alias of the built-in :class:`long`.

+ :class:`float`.
+
+

+ built without complex number support.
+

+.. data:: StringType
+
+ The type of character strings (e.g. ``'Spam'``); alias of the built-in
+ :class:`str`.
+
+
+.. data:: UnicodeType
+
+ The type of Unicode character strings (e.g. ``u'Spam'``). This is not defined
+ if Python was built without Unicode support. It's an alias of the built-in
+ :class:`unicode`.
+
+
+.. data:: TupleType
+
+ The type of tuples (e.g. ``(1, 2, 3, 'Spam')``); alias of the built-in
+ :class:`tuple`.
+
+
+.. data:: ListType
+
+ The type of lists (e.g. ``[0, 1, 2, 3]``); alias of the built-in
+ :class:`list`.
+
+
+.. data:: DictType
+
+ The type of dictionaries (e.g. ``{'Bacon': 1, 'Ham': 0}``); alias of the
+ built-in :class:`dict`.
+
+
+.. data:: DictionaryType
+
+ An alternate name for ``DictType``.
+
+
+.. data:: FunctionType
+ LambdaType
+
+ The type of user-defined functions and functions created by :keyword:`lambda`
+ expressions.
+
+

+ generator function.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2
+

+
+.. data:: InstanceType
+
+ The type of instances of user-defined classes.
+

+ BuiltinMethodType
+
+ The type of built-in functions like :func:`len` or :func:`sys.exit`, and

+ The type of range objects returned by :func:`xrange`; alias of the built-in
+ :class:`xrange`.
+
+
+.. data:: SliceType
+
+ .. index:: builtin: slice
+
+ The type of objects returned by :func:`slice`; alias of the built-in
+ :class:`slice`.
+
+
+.. data:: EllipsisType
+
+ The type of ``Ellipsis``.
+
+
+.. data:: TracebackType
+
+ The type of traceback objects such as found in ``sys.exc_traceback``.
+
+
+.. data:: FrameType
+
+ The type of frame objects such as found in ``tb.tb_frame`` if ``tb`` is a

+
+
+.. data:: GetSetDescriptorType
+
+ The type of objects defined in extension modules with ``PyGetSetDef``, such
+ as ``FrameType.f_locals`` or ``array.array.typecode``. This type is used as
+ descriptor for object attributes; it has the same purpose as the
+ :class:`property` type, but for classes defined in extension modules.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. data:: MemberDescriptorType
+
+ The type of objects defined in extension modules with ``PyMemberDef``, such
+ as ``datetime.timedelta.days``. This type is used as descriptor for simple C
+ data members which use standard conversion functions; it has the same purpose
+ as the :class:`property` type, but for classes defined in extension modules.
+
+ .. impl-detail::
+
+ In other implementations of Python, this type may be identical to
+ ``GetSetDescriptorType``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. data:: StringTypes
+
+ A sequence containing ``StringType`` and ``UnicodeType`` used to facilitate
+ easier checking for any string object. Using this is more portable than using a
+ sequence of the two string types constructed elsewhere since it only contains
+ ``UnicodeType`` if it has been built in the running version of Python. For
+ example: ``isinstance(s, types.StringTypes)``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2

+********************
+Undocumented Modules
+********************
+
+Here's a quick listing of modules that are currently undocumented, but that
+should be documented. Feel free to contribute documentation for them! (Send
+via email to [email protected].)
+
+The idea and original contents for this chapter were taken from a posting by
+Fredrik Lundh; the specific contents of this chapter have been substantially
+revised.
+
+
+Miscellaneous useful utilities
+==============================
+
+Some of these are very old and/or not very robust; marked with "hmm."
+
+:mod:`ihooks`
+ --- Import hook support (for :mod:`rexec`; may become obsolete). Removed in
+ Python 3.x.
+
+
+Platform specific modules
+=========================
+
+These modules are used to implement the :mod:`os.path` module, and are not
+documented beyond this mention. There's little need to document these.
+
+:mod:`ntpath`
+ --- Implementation of :mod:`os.path` on Win32, Win64, WinCE, and OS/2 platforms.
+
+:mod:`posixpath`
+ --- Implementation of :mod:`os.path` on POSIX.
+
+:mod:`bsddb185`
+ --- Backwards compatibility module for systems which still use the Berkeley DB
+ 1.85 module. It is normally only available on certain BSD Unix-based systems.
+ It should never be used directly.
+
+
+Multimedia
+==========
+
+:mod:`audiodev`
+ --- Platform-independent API for playing audio data. Removed in Python 3.x.
+
+:mod:`linuxaudiodev`
+ --- Play audio data on the Linux audio device. Replaced in Python 2.3 by the
+ :mod:`ossaudiodev` module. Removed in Python 3.x.
+
+:mod:`sunaudio`
+ --- Interpret Sun audio headers (may become obsolete or a tool/demo).
+ Removed in Python 3.x.
+

+:mod:`unicodedata` --- Unicode Database
+=======================================
+
+.. module:: unicodedata
+ :synopsis: Access the Unicode Database.
+.. moduleauthor:: Marc-Andre Lemburg <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Marc-Andre Lemburg <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Martin v. Löwis <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. index::
+ single: Unicode
+ single: character
+ pair: Unicode; database
+
+This module provides access to the Unicode Character Database which defines
+character properties for all Unicode characters. The data in this database is
+based on the :file:`UnicodeData.txt` file version 5.2.0 which is publicly
+available from ftp://ftp.unicode.org/.
+
+The module uses the same names and symbols as defined by the UnicodeData File
+Format 5.2.0 (see http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr44/tr44-4.html).
+It defines the following functions:
+
+
+.. function:: lookup(name)
+
+ Look up character by name. If a character with the given name is found, return
+ the corresponding Unicode character. If not found, :exc:`KeyError` is raised.
+
+
+.. function:: name(unichr[, default])
+
+ Returns the name assigned to the Unicode character *unichr* as a string. If no
+ name is defined, *default* is returned, or, if not given, :exc:`ValueError` is
+ raised.
+
+
+.. function:: decimal(unichr[, default])
+
+ Returns the decimal value assigned to the Unicode character *unichr* as integer.
+ If no such value is defined, *default* is returned, or, if not given,
+ :exc:`ValueError` is raised.
+
+
+.. function:: digit(unichr[, default])
+
+ Returns the digit value assigned to the Unicode character *unichr* as integer.
+ If no such value is defined, *default* is returned, or, if not given,
+ :exc:`ValueError` is raised.
+
+
+.. function:: numeric(unichr[, default])
+
+ Returns the numeric value assigned to the Unicode character *unichr* as float.
+ If no such value is defined, *default* is returned, or, if not given,
+ :exc:`ValueError` is raised.
+
+
+.. function:: category(unichr)
+
+ Returns the general category assigned to the Unicode character *unichr* as
+ string.
+
+
+.. function:: bidirectional(unichr)
+
+ Returns the bidirectional class assigned to the Unicode character *unichr* as
+ string. If no such value is defined, an empty string is returned.
+
+
+.. function:: combining(unichr)
+
+ Returns the canonical combining class assigned to the Unicode character *unichr*
+ as integer. Returns ``0`` if no combining class is defined.
+
+
+.. function:: east_asian_width(unichr)
+
+ Returns the east asian width assigned to the Unicode character *unichr* as
+ string.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+.. function:: mirrored(unichr)
+
+ Returns the mirrored property assigned to the Unicode character *unichr* as
+ integer. Returns ``1`` if the character has been identified as a "mirrored"
+ character in bidirectional text, ``0`` otherwise.
+
+
+.. function:: decomposition(unichr)
+
+ Returns the character decomposition mapping assigned to the Unicode character
+ *unichr* as string. An empty string is returned in case no such mapping is
+ defined.
+
+
+.. function:: normalize(form, unistr)
+
+ Return the normal form *form* for the Unicode string *unistr*. Valid values for
+ *form* are 'NFC', 'NFKC', 'NFD', and 'NFKD'.
+
+ The Unicode standard defines various normalization forms of a Unicode string,
+ based on the definition of canonical equivalence and compatibility equivalence.
+ In Unicode, several characters can be expressed in various way. For example, the
+ character U+00C7 (LATIN CAPITAL LETTER C WITH CEDILLA) can also be expressed as
+ the sequence U+0043 (LATIN CAPITAL LETTER C) U+0327 (COMBINING CEDILLA).
+
+ For each character, there are two normal forms: normal form C and normal form D.
+ Normal form D (NFD) is also known as canonical decomposition, and translates
+ each character into its decomposed form. Normal form C (NFC) first applies a
+ canonical decomposition, then composes pre-combined characters again.
+
+ In addition to these two forms, there are two additional normal forms based on
+ compatibility equivalence. In Unicode, certain characters are supported which
+ normally would be unified with other characters. For example, U+2160 (ROMAN
+ NUMERAL ONE) is really the same thing as U+0049 (LATIN CAPITAL LETTER I).
+ However, it is supported in Unicode for compatibility with existing character
+ sets (e.g. gb2312).
+
+ The normal form KD (NFKD) will apply the compatibility decomposition, i.e.
+ replace all compatibility characters with their equivalents. The normal form KC
+ (NFKC) first applies the compatibility decomposition, followed by the canonical
+ composition.
+
+ Even if two unicode strings are normalized and look the same to
+ a human reader, if one has combining characters and the other
+ doesn't, they may not compare equal.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+In addition, the module exposes the following constant:
+
+
+.. data:: unidata_version
+
+ The version of the Unicode database used in this module.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. data:: ucd_3_2_0
+
+ This is an object that has the same methods as the entire module, but uses the
+ Unicode database version 3.2 instead, for applications that require this
+ specific version of the Unicode database (such as IDNA).
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+Examples:
+
+ >>> import unicodedata
+ >>> unicodedata.lookup('LEFT CURLY BRACKET')
+ u'{'
+ >>> unicodedata.name(u'/')
+ 'SOLIDUS'
+ >>> unicodedata.decimal(u'9')

+:mod:`unittest` --- Unit testing framework
+==========================================
+
+.. module:: unittest
+ :synopsis: Unit testing framework for Python.
+.. moduleauthor:: Steve Purcell <[email protected]>

+
+(If you are already familiar with the basic concepts of testing, you might want
+to skip to :ref:`the list of assert methods <assert-methods>`.)
+
+The Python unit testing framework, sometimes referred to as "PyUnit," is a
+Python language version of JUnit, by Kent Beck and Erich Gamma. JUnit is, in
+turn, a Java version of Kent's Smalltalk testing framework. Each is the de
+facto standard unit testing framework for its respective language.
+
+:mod:`unittest` supports test automation, sharing of setup and shutdown code for
+tests, aggregation of tests into collections, and independence of the tests from
+the reporting framework. The :mod:`unittest` module provides classes that make
+it easy to support these qualities for a set of tests.
+
+To achieve this, :mod:`unittest` supports some important concepts:
+
+test fixture
+ A :dfn:`test fixture` represents the preparation needed to perform one or more
+ tests, and any associate cleanup actions. This may involve, for example,
+ creating temporary or proxy databases, directories, or starting a server
+ process.
+
+test case
+ A :dfn:`test case` is the smallest unit of testing. It checks for a specific
+ response to a particular set of inputs. :mod:`unittest` provides a base class,
+ :class:`TestCase`, which may be used to create new test cases.
+
+test suite
+ A :dfn:`test suite` is a collection of test cases, test suites, or both. It is
+ used to aggregate tests that should be executed together.
+
+test runner
+ A :dfn:`test runner` is a component which orchestrates the execution of tests
+ and provides the outcome to the user. The runner may use a graphical interface,
+ a textual interface, or return a special value to indicate the results of
+ executing the tests.
+
+The test case and test fixture concepts are supported through the
+:class:`TestCase` and :class:`FunctionTestCase` classes; the former should be
+used when creating new tests, and the latter can be used when integrating
+existing test code with a :mod:`unittest`\ -driven framework. When building test
+fixtures using :class:`TestCase`, the :meth:`~TestCase.setUp` and
+:meth:`~TestCase.tearDown` methods can be overridden to provide initialization
+and cleanup for the fixture. With :class:`FunctionTestCase`, existing functions
+can be passed to the constructor for these purposes. When the test is run, the
+fixture initialization is run first; if it succeeds, the cleanup method is run
+after the test has been executed, regardless of the outcome of the test. Each
+instance of the :class:`TestCase` will only be used to run a single test method,
+so a new fixture is created for each test.
+
+Test suites are implemented by the :class:`TestSuite` class. This class allows
+individual tests and test suites to be aggregated; when the suite is executed,
+all tests added directly to the suite and in "child" test suites are run.
+
+A test runner is an object that provides a single method,
+:meth:`~TestRunner.run`, which accepts a :class:`TestCase` or :class:`TestSuite`
+object as a parameter, and returns a result object. The class
+:class:`TestResult` is provided for use as the result object. :mod:`unittest`
+provides the :class:`TextTestRunner` as an example test runner which reports
+test results on the standard error stream by default. Alternate runners can be
+implemented for other environments (such as graphical environments) without any
+need to derive from a specific class.

+
+Basic example
+-------------
+
+The :mod:`unittest` module provides a rich set of tools for constructing and
+running tests. This section demonstrates that a small subset of the tools
+suffice to meet the needs of most users.
+
+Here is a short script to test three functions from the :mod:`random` module::
+
+ import random
+ import unittest
+
+ class TestSequenceFunctions(unittest.TestCase):
+
+ def setUp(self):
+ self.seq = range(10)
+
+ def test_shuffle(self):
+ # make sure the shuffled sequence does not lose any elements
+ random.shuffle(self.seq)
+ self.seq.sort()
+ self.assertEqual(self.seq, range(10))
+
+ # should raise an exception for an immutable sequence
+ self.assertRaises(TypeError, random.shuffle, (1,2,3))
+
+ def test_choice(self):
+ element = random.choice(self.seq)
+ self.assertTrue(element in self.seq)
+
+ def test_sample(self):
+ with self.assertRaises(ValueError):
+ random.sample(self.seq, 20)
+ for element in random.sample(self.seq, 5):
+ self.assertTrue(element in self.seq)
+
+ if __name__ == '__main__':
+ unittest.main()
+
+A testcase is created by subclassing :class:`unittest.TestCase`. The three
+individual tests are defined with methods whose names start with the letters
+``test``. This naming convention informs the test runner about which methods
+represent tests.
+
+The crux of each test is a call to :meth:`~TestCase.assertEqual` to check for an
+expected result; :meth:`~TestCase.assertTrue` to verify a condition; or
+:meth:`~TestCase.assertRaises` to verify that an expected exception gets raised.
+These methods are used instead of the :keyword:`assert` statement so the test
+runner can accumulate all test results and produce a report.
+
+When a :meth:`~TestCase.setUp` method is defined, the test runner will run that
+method prior to each test. Likewise, if a :meth:`~TestCase.tearDown` method is
+defined, the test runner will invoke that method after each test. In the
+example, :meth:`~TestCase.setUp` was used to create a fresh sequence for each
+test.
+
+The final block shows a simple way to run the tests. :func:`unittest.main`
+provides a command-line interface to the test script. When run from the command
+line, the above script produces an output that looks like this::
+
+ ...
+ ----------------------------------------------------------------------
+ Ran 3 tests in 0.000s
+
+ OK
+
+Instead of :func:`unittest.main`, there are other ways to run the tests with a
+finer level of control, less terse output, and no requirement to be run from the
+command line. For example, the last two lines may be replaced with::
+
+ suite = unittest.TestLoader().loadTestsFromTestCase(TestSequenceFunctions)
+ unittest.TextTestRunner(verbosity=2).run(suite)
+
+Running the revised script from the interpreter or another script produces the
+following output::
+
+ test_choice (__main__.TestSequenceFunctions) ... ok
+ test_sample (__main__.TestSequenceFunctions) ... ok
+ test_shuffle (__main__.TestSequenceFunctions) ... ok
+
+ ----------------------------------------------------------------------
+ Ran 3 tests in 0.110s
+
+ OK
+
+The above examples show the most commonly used :mod:`unittest` features which
+are sufficient to meet many everyday testing needs. The remainder of the
+documentation explores the full feature set from first principles.
+
+
+.. _unittest-command-line-interface:
+
+Command-Line Interface
+----------------------
+
+The unittest module can be used from the command line to run tests from
+modules, classes or even individual test methods::
+
+ python -m unittest test_module1 test_module2
+ python -m unittest test_module.TestClass
+ python -m unittest test_module.TestClass.test_method
+
+You can pass in a list with any combination of module names, and fully
+qualified class or method names.
+
+You can run tests with more detail (higher verbosity) by passing in the -v flag::
+
+ python -m unittest -v test_module
+
+For a list of all the command-line options::
+
+ python -m unittest -h
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ In earlier versions it was only possible to run individual test methods and
+ not modules or classes.
+
+
+Command-line options
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+:program:`unittest` supports these command-line options:
+
+.. program:: unittest
+
+.. cmdoption:: -b, --buffer
+
+ The standard output and standard error streams are buffered during the test
+ run. Output during a passing test is discarded. Output is echoed normally
+ on test fail or error and is added to the failure messages.
+
+.. cmdoption:: -c, --catch
+
+ Control-C during the test run waits for the current test to end and then
+ reports all the results so far. A second control-C raises the normal
+ :exc:`KeyboardInterrupt` exception.
+
+ See `Signal Handling`_ for the functions that provide this functionality.
+
+.. cmdoption:: -f, --failfast
+
+ Stop the test run on the first error or failure.
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.7
+ The command-line options ``-b``, ``-c`` and ``-f`` were added.
+
+The command line can also be used for test discovery, for running all of the
+tests in a project or just a subset.
+
+
+.. _unittest-test-discovery:
+
+Test Discovery
+--------------
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+Unittest supports simple test discovery. In order to be compatible with test
+discovery, all of the test files must be :ref:`modules <tut-modules>` or
+:ref:`packages <tut-packages>` importable from the top-level directory of
+the project (this means that their filenames must be valid
+:ref:`identifiers <identifiers>`).
+
+Test discovery is implemented in :meth:`TestLoader.discover`, but can also be
+used from the command line. The basic command-line usage is::
+
+ cd project_directory
+ python -m unittest discover
+
+The ``discover`` sub-command has the following options:
+
+.. program:: unittest discover
+
+.. cmdoption:: -v, --verbose
+
+ Verbose output
+
+.. cmdoption:: -s, --start-directory directory
+
+ Directory to start discovery (``.`` default)
+
+.. cmdoption:: -p, --pattern pattern
+
+ Pattern to match test files (``test*.py`` default)
+
+.. cmdoption:: -t, --top-level-directory directory
+
+ Top level directory of project (defaults to start directory)
+
+The :option:`-s`, :option:`-p`, and :option:`-t` options can be passed in
+as positional arguments in that order. The following two command lines
+are equivalent::
+
+ python -m unittest discover -s project_directory -p '*_test.py'
+ python -m unittest discover project_directory '*_test.py'
+
+As well as being a path it is possible to pass a package name, for example
+``myproject.subpackage.test``, as the start directory. The package name you
+supply will then be imported and its location on the filesystem will be used
+as the start directory.
+
+.. caution::
+
+ Test discovery loads tests by importing them. Once test discovery has
+ found all the test files from the start directory you specify it turns the
+ paths into package names to import. For example :file:`foo/bar/baz.py` will be
+ imported as ``foo.bar.baz``.
+
+ If you have a package installed globally and attempt test discovery on
+ a different copy of the package then the import *could* happen from the
+ wrong place. If this happens test discovery will warn you and exit.
+
+ If you supply the start directory as a package name rather than a
+ path to a directory then discover assumes that whichever location it
+ imports from is the location you intended, so you will not get the
+ warning.
+
+Test modules and packages can customize test loading and discovery by through
+the `load_tests protocol`_.
+
+
+.. _organizing-tests:
+
+Organizing test code
+--------------------
+
+The basic building blocks of unit testing are :dfn:`test cases` --- single
+scenarios that must be set up and checked for correctness. In :mod:`unittest`,
+test cases are represented by instances of :mod:`unittest`'s :class:`TestCase`
+class. To make your own test cases you must write subclasses of
+:class:`TestCase`, or use :class:`FunctionTestCase`.
+
+An instance of a :class:`TestCase`\ -derived class is an object that can
+completely run a single test method, together with optional set-up and tidy-up
+code.
+
+The testing code of a :class:`TestCase` instance should be entirely self
+contained, such that it can be run either in isolation or in arbitrary
+combination with any number of other test cases.
+
+The simplest :class:`TestCase` subclass will simply override the
+:meth:`~TestCase.runTest` method in order to perform specific testing code::
+
+ import unittest
+
+ class DefaultWidgetSizeTestCase(unittest.TestCase):
+ def runTest(self):
+ widget = Widget('The widget')
+ self.assertEqual(widget.size(), (50, 50), 'incorrect default size')
+
+Note that in order to test something, we use one of the :meth:`assert\*`
+methods provided by the :class:`TestCase` base class. If the test fails, an
+exception will be raised, and :mod:`unittest` will identify the test case as a
+:dfn:`failure`. Any other exceptions will be treated as :dfn:`errors`. This
+helps you identify where the problem is: :dfn:`failures` are caused by incorrect
+results - a 5 where you expected a 6. :dfn:`Errors` are caused by incorrect
+code - e.g., a :exc:`TypeError` caused by an incorrect function call.
+
+The way to run a test case will be described later. For now, note that to
+construct an instance of such a test case, we call its constructor without
+arguments::
+
+ testCase = DefaultWidgetSizeTestCase()
+
+Now, such test cases can be numerous, and their set-up can be repetitive. In
+the above case, constructing a :class:`Widget` in each of 100 Widget test case
+subclasses would mean unsightly duplication.
+
+Luckily, we can factor out such set-up code by implementing a method called
+:meth:`~TestCase.setUp`, which the testing framework will automatically call for
+us when we run the test::
+
+ import unittest
+
+ class SimpleWidgetTestCase(unittest.TestCase):
+ def setUp(self):
+ self.widget = Widget('The widget')
+
+ class DefaultWidgetSizeTestCase(SimpleWidgetTestCase):
+ def runTest(self):
+ self.assertEqual(self.widget.size(), (50,50),
+ 'incorrect default size')
+
+ class WidgetResizeTestCase(SimpleWidgetTestCase):
+ def runTest(self):
+ self.widget.resize(100,150)
+ self.assertEqual(self.widget.size(), (100,150),
+ 'wrong size after resize')
+
+If the :meth:`~TestCase.setUp` method raises an exception while the test is
+running, the framework will consider the test to have suffered an error, and the
+:meth:`~TestCase.runTest` method will not be executed.
+
+Similarly, we can provide a :meth:`~TestCase.tearDown` method that tidies up
+after the :meth:`~TestCase.runTest` method has been run::
+
+ import unittest
+
+ class SimpleWidgetTestCase(unittest.TestCase):
+ def setUp(self):
+ self.widget = Widget('The widget')
+
+ def tearDown(self):
+ self.widget.dispose()
+ self.widget = None
+
+If :meth:`~TestCase.setUp` succeeded, the :meth:`~TestCase.tearDown` method will
+be run whether :meth:`~TestCase.runTest` succeeded or not.
+
+Such a working environment for the testing code is called a :dfn:`fixture`.
+
+Often, many small test cases will use the same fixture. In this case, we would
+end up subclassing :class:`SimpleWidgetTestCase` into many small one-method
+classes such as :class:`DefaultWidgetSizeTestCase`. This is time-consuming and
+discouraging, so in the same vein as JUnit, :mod:`unittest` provides a simpler
+mechanism::
+
+ import unittest
+
+ class WidgetTestCase(unittest.TestCase):
+ def setUp(self):
+ self.widget = Widget('The widget')
+
+ def tearDown(self):
+ self.widget.dispose()
+ self.widget = None
+
+ def test_default_size(self):
+ self.assertEqual(self.widget.size(), (50,50),
+ 'incorrect default size')
+
+ def test_resize(self):
+ self.widget.resize(100,150)
+ self.assertEqual(self.widget.size(), (100,150),
+ 'wrong size after resize')
+
+Here we have not provided a :meth:`~TestCase.runTest` method, but have instead
+provided two different test methods. Class instances will now each run one of
+the :meth:`test_\*` methods, with ``self.widget`` created and destroyed
+separately for each instance. When creating an instance we must specify the
+test method it is to run. We do this by passing the method name in the
+constructor::
+
+ defaultSizeTestCase = WidgetTestCase('test_default_size')
+ resizeTestCase = WidgetTestCase('test_resize')
+
+Test case instances are grouped together according to the features they test.
+:mod:`unittest` provides a mechanism for this: the :dfn:`test suite`,
+represented by :mod:`unittest`'s :class:`TestSuite` class::
+
+ widgetTestSuite = unittest.TestSuite()
+ widgetTestSuite.addTest(WidgetTestCase('test_default_size'))
+ widgetTestSuite.addTest(WidgetTestCase('test_resize'))
+
+For the ease of running tests, as we will see later, it is a good idea to
+provide in each test module a callable object that returns a pre-built test
+suite::
+
+ def suite():
+ suite = unittest.TestSuite()
+ suite.addTest(WidgetTestCase('test_default_size'))
+ suite.addTest(WidgetTestCase('test_resize'))
+ return suite
+
+or even::
+
+ def suite():
+ tests = ['test_default_size', 'test_resize']
+
+ return unittest.TestSuite(map(WidgetTestCase, tests))
+
+Since it is a common pattern to create a :class:`TestCase` subclass with many
+similarly named test functions, :mod:`unittest` provides a :class:`TestLoader`
+class that can be used to automate the process of creating a test suite and
+populating it with individual tests. For example, ::
+
+ suite = unittest.TestLoader().loadTestsFromTestCase(WidgetTestCase)
+
+will create a test suite that will run ``WidgetTestCase.test_default_size()`` and
+``WidgetTestCase.test_resize``. :class:`TestLoader` uses the ``'test'`` method
+name prefix to identify test methods automatically.
+
+Note that the order in which the various test cases will be run is
+determined by sorting the test function names with respect to the
+built-in ordering for strings.
+
+Often it is desirable to group suites of test cases together, so as to run tests
+for the whole system at once. This is easy, since :class:`TestSuite` instances
+can be added to a :class:`TestSuite` just as :class:`TestCase` instances can be
+added to a :class:`TestSuite`::
+
+ suite1 = module1.TheTestSuite()
+ suite2 = module2.TheTestSuite()
+ alltests = unittest.TestSuite([suite1, suite2])
+
+You can place the definitions of test cases and test suites in the same modules
+as the code they are to test (such as :file:`widget.py`), but there are several
+advantages to placing the test code in a separate module, such as
+:file:`test_widget.py`:
+
+* The test module can be run standalone from the command line.
+
+* The test code can more easily be separated from shipped code.
+
+* There is less temptation to change test code to fit the code it tests without
+ a good reason.
+
+* Test code should be modified much less frequently than the code it tests.
+
+* Tested code can be refactored more easily.
+
+* Tests for modules written in C must be in separate modules anyway, so why not
+ be consistent?
+
+* If the testing strategy changes, there is no need to change the source code.
+
+
+.. _legacy-unit-tests:
+
+Re-using old test code
+----------------------
+
+Some users will find that they have existing test code that they would like to
+run from :mod:`unittest`, without converting every old test function to a
+:class:`TestCase` subclass.
+
+For this reason, :mod:`unittest` provides a :class:`FunctionTestCase` class.
+This subclass of :class:`TestCase` can be used to wrap an existing test
+function. Set-up and tear-down functions can also be provided.
+
+Given the following test function::
+
+ def testSomething():
+ something = makeSomething()
+ assert something.name is not None
+ # ...
+
+one can create an equivalent test case instance as follows::
+
+ testcase = unittest.FunctionTestCase(testSomething)
+
+If there are additional set-up and tear-down methods that should be called as
+part of the test case's operation, they can also be provided like so::
+
+ testcase = unittest.FunctionTestCase(testSomething,
+ setUp=makeSomethingDB,
+ tearDown=deleteSomethingDB)
+
+To make migrating existing test suites easier, :mod:`unittest` supports tests
+raising :exc:`AssertionError` to indicate test failure. However, it is
+recommended that you use the explicit :meth:`TestCase.fail\*` and
+:meth:`TestCase.assert\*` methods instead, as future versions of :mod:`unittest`
+may treat :exc:`AssertionError` differently.
+
+.. note::
+
+ Even though :class:`FunctionTestCase` can be used to quickly convert an
+ existing test base over to a :mod:`unittest`\ -based system, this approach is
+ not recommended. Taking the time to set up proper :class:`TestCase`
+ subclasses will make future test refactorings infinitely easier.
+
+In some cases, the existing tests may have been written using the :mod:`doctest`
+module. If so, :mod:`doctest` provides a :class:`DocTestSuite` class that can
+automatically build :class:`unittest.TestSuite` instances from the existing
+:mod:`doctest`\ -based tests.
+
+
+.. _unittest-skipping:
+
+Skipping tests and expected failures
+------------------------------------
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+Unittest supports skipping individual test methods and even whole classes of
+tests. In addition, it supports marking a test as a "expected failure," a test
+that is broken and will fail, but shouldn't be counted as a failure on a
+:class:`TestResult`.
+
+Skipping a test is simply a matter of using the :func:`skip` :term:`decorator`
+or one of its conditional variants.
+
+Basic skipping looks like this::
+
+ class MyTestCase(unittest.TestCase):
+
+ @unittest.skip("demonstrating skipping")
+ def test_nothing(self):
+ self.fail("shouldn't happen")
+
+ @unittest.skipIf(mylib.__version__ < (1, 3),
+ "not supported in this library version")
+ def test_format(self):
+ # Tests that work for only a certain version of the library.
+ pass
+
+ @unittest.skipUnless(sys.platform.startswith("win"), "requires Windows")
+ def test_windows_support(self):
+ # windows specific testing code
+ pass
+
+This is the output of running the example above in verbose mode::
+
+ test_format (__main__.MyTestCase) ... skipped 'not supported in this library version'
+ test_nothing (__main__.MyTestCase) ... skipped 'demonstrating skipping'
+ test_windows_support (__main__.MyTestCase) ... skipped 'requires Windows'
+
+ ----------------------------------------------------------------------
+ Ran 3 tests in 0.005s
+
+ OK (skipped=3)
+
+Classes can be skipped just like methods::
+
+ @unittest.skip("showing class skipping")
+ class MySkippedTestCase(unittest.TestCase):
+ def test_not_run(self):
+ pass
+
+:meth:`TestCase.setUp` can also skip the test. This is useful when a resource
+that needs to be set up is not available.
+
+Expected failures use the :func:`expectedFailure` decorator. ::
+
+ class ExpectedFailureTestCase(unittest.TestCase):
+ @unittest.expectedFailure
+ def test_fail(self):
+ self.assertEqual(1, 0, "broken")
+
+It's easy to roll your own skipping decorators by making a decorator that calls
+:func:`skip` on the test when it wants it to be skipped. This decorator skips
+the test unless the passed object has a certain attribute::
+
+ def skipUnlessHasattr(obj, attr):
+ if hasattr(obj, attr):
+ return lambda func: func
+ return unittest.skip("{!r} doesn't have {!r}".format(obj, attr))
+
+The following decorators implement test skipping and expected failures:
+
+.. function:: skip(reason)
+
+ Unconditionally skip the decorated test. *reason* should describe why the
+ test is being skipped.
+
+.. function:: skipIf(condition, reason)
+
+ Skip the decorated test if *condition* is true.
+
+.. function:: skipUnless(condition, reason)
+
+ Skip the decorated test unless *condition* is true.
+
+.. function:: expectedFailure
+
+ Mark the test as an expected failure. If the test fails when run, the test
+ is not counted as a failure.
+
+.. exception:: SkipTest(reason)
+
+ This exception is raised to skip a test.
+
+ Usually you can use :meth:`TestCase.skipTest` or one of the skipping
+ decorators instead of raising this directly.
+
+Skipped tests will not have :meth:`setUp` or :meth:`tearDown` run around them.
+Skipped classes will not have :meth:`setUpClass` or :meth:`tearDownClass` run.
+
+
+.. _unittest-contents:
+
+Classes and functions
+---------------------
+
+This section describes in depth the API of :mod:`unittest`.
+
+
+.. _testcase-objects:
+
+Test cases
+~~~~~~~~~~
+
+.. class:: TestCase(methodName='runTest')
+
+ Instances of the :class:`TestCase` class represent the smallest testable units
+ in the :mod:`unittest` universe. This class is intended to be used as a base
+ class, with specific tests being implemented by concrete subclasses. This class
+ implements the interface needed by the test runner to allow it to drive the
+ test, and methods that the test code can use to check for and report various
+ kinds of failure.
+
+ Each instance of :class:`TestCase` will run a single test method: the method
+ named *methodName*. If you remember, we had an earlier example that went
+ something like this::
+
+ def suite():
+ suite = unittest.TestSuite()
+ suite.addTest(WidgetTestCase('test_default_size'))
+ suite.addTest(WidgetTestCase('test_resize'))
+ return suite
+
+ Here, we create two instances of :class:`WidgetTestCase`, each of which runs a
+ single test.
+
+ *methodName* defaults to :meth:`runTest`.
+
+ :class:`TestCase` instances provide three groups of methods: one group used
+ to run the test, another used by the test implementation to check conditions
+ and report failures, and some inquiry methods allowing information about the
+ test itself to be gathered.
+
+ Methods in the first group (running the test) are:
+
+
+ .. method:: setUp()
+
+ Method called to prepare the test fixture. This is called immediately
+ before calling the test method; any exception raised by this method will
+ be considered an error rather than a test failure. The default
+ implementation does nothing.
+
+
+ .. method:: tearDown()
+
+ Method called immediately after the test method has been called and the
+ result recorded. This is called even if the test method raised an
+ exception, so the implementation in subclasses may need to be particularly
+ careful about checking internal state. Any exception raised by this
+ method will be considered an error rather than a test failure. This
+ method will only be called if the :meth:`setUp` succeeds, regardless of
+ the outcome of the test method. The default implementation does nothing.
+
+
+ .. method:: setUpClass()
+
+ A class method called before tests in an individual class run.
+ ``setUpClass`` is called with the class as the only argument
+ and must be decorated as a :func:`classmethod`::
+
+ @classmethod
+ def setUpClass(cls):
+ ...
+
+ See `Class and Module Fixtures`_ for more details.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+ .. method:: tearDownClass()
+
+ A class method called after tests in an individual class have run.
+ ``tearDownClass`` is called with the class as the only argument
+ and must be decorated as a :meth:`classmethod`::
+
+ @classmethod
+ def tearDownClass(cls):
+ ...
+
+ See `Class and Module Fixtures`_ for more details.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+ .. method:: run(result=None)
+
+ Run the test, collecting the result into the test result object passed as
+ *result*. If *result* is omitted or ``None``, a temporary result
+ object is created (by calling the :meth:`defaultTestResult` method) and
+ used. The result object is not returned to :meth:`run`'s caller.
+
+ The same effect may be had by simply calling the :class:`TestCase`
+ instance.
+
+
+ .. method:: skipTest(reason)
+
+ Calling this during a test method or :meth:`setUp` skips the current
+ test. See :ref:`unittest-skipping` for more information.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+ .. method:: debug()
+
+ Run the test without collecting the result. This allows exceptions raised
+ by the test to be propagated to the caller, and can be used to support
+ running tests under a debugger.
+
+ .. _assert-methods:
+
+ The :class:`TestCase` class provides a number of methods to check for and
+ report failures, such as:
+
+ +-----------------------------------------+-----------------------------+---------------+
+ | Method | Checks that | New in |
+ +=========================================+=============================+===============+
+ | :meth:`assertEqual(a, b) | ``a == b`` | |
+ | <TestCase.assertEqual>` | | |
+ +-----------------------------------------+-----------------------------+---------------+
+ | :meth:`assertNotEqual(a, b) | ``a != b`` | |
+ | <TestCase.assertNotEqual>` | | |
+ +-----------------------------------------+-----------------------------+---------------+
+ | :meth:`assertTrue(x) | ``bool(x) is True`` | |
+ | <TestCase.assertTrue>` | | |
+ +-----------------------------------------+-----------------------------+---------------+
+ | :meth:`assertFalse(x) | ``bool(x) is False`` | |
+ | <TestCase.assertFalse>` | | |
+ +-----------------------------------------+-----------------------------+---------------+
+ | :meth:`assertIs(a, b) | ``a is b`` | 2.7 |
+ | <TestCase.assertIs>` | | |
+ +-----------------------------------------+-----------------------------+---------------+
+ | :meth:`assertIsNot(a, b) | ``a is not b`` | 2.7 |
+ | <TestCase.assertIsNot>` | | |
+ +-----------------------------------------+-----------------------------+---------------+
+ | :meth:`assertIsNone(x) | ``x is None`` | 2.7 |
+ | <TestCase.assertIsNone>` | | |
+ +-----------------------------------------+-----------------------------+---------------+
+ | :meth:`assertIsNotNone(x) | ``x is not None`` | 2.7 |
+ | <TestCase.assertIsNotNone>` | | |
+ +-----------------------------------------+-----------------------------+---------------+
+ | :meth:`assertIn(a, b) | ``a in b`` | 2.7 |
+ | <TestCase.assertIn>` | | |
+ +-----------------------------------------+-----------------------------+---------------+
+ | :meth:`assertNotIn(a, b) | ``a not in b`` | 2.7 |
+ | <TestCase.assertNotIn>` | | |
+ +-----------------------------------------+-----------------------------+---------------+
+ | :meth:`assertIsInstance(a, b) | ``isinstance(a, b)`` | 2.7 |
+ | <TestCase.assertIsInstance>` | | |
+ +-----------------------------------------+-----------------------------+---------------+
+ | :meth:`assertNotIsInstance(a, b) | ``not isinstance(a, b)`` | 2.7 |
+ | <TestCase.assertNotIsInstance>` | | |
+ +-----------------------------------------+-----------------------------+---------------+
+
+ All the assert methods (except :meth:`assertRaises`,
+ :meth:`assertRaisesRegexp`)
+ accept a *msg* argument that, if specified, is used as the error message on
+ failure (see also :data:`longMessage`).
+
+ .. method:: assertEqual(first, second, msg=None)
+
+ Test that *first* and *second* are equal. If the values do not compare
+ equal, the test will fail.
+
+ In addition, if *first* and *second* are the exact same type and one of
+ list, tuple, dict, set, frozenset or unicode or any type that a subclass
+ registers with :meth:`addTypeEqualityFunc` the type-specific equality
+ function will be called in order to generate a more useful default
+ error message (see also the :ref:`list of type-specific methods
+ <type-specific-methods>`).
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ Added the automatic calling of type-specific equality function.
+
+
+ .. method:: assertNotEqual(first, second, msg=None)
+
+ Test that *first* and *second* are not equal. If the values do compare
+ equal, the test will fail.
+
+ .. method:: assertTrue(expr, msg=None)
+ assertFalse(expr, msg=None)
+
+ Test that *expr* is true (or false).
+
+ Note that this is equivalent to ``bool(expr) is True`` and not to ``expr
+ is True`` (use ``assertIs(expr, True)`` for the latter). This method
+ should also be avoided when more specific methods are available (e.g.
+ ``assertEqual(a, b)`` instead of ``assertTrue(a == b)``), because they
+ provide a better error message in case of failure.
+
+
+ .. method:: assertIs(first, second, msg=None)
+ assertIsNot(first, second, msg=None)
+
+ Test that *first* and *second* evaluate (or don't evaluate) to the same object.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+ .. method:: assertIsNone(expr, msg=None)
+ assertIsNotNone(expr, msg=None)
+
+ Test that *expr* is (or is not) None.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+ .. method:: assertIn(first, second, msg=None)
+ assertNotIn(first, second, msg=None)
+
+ Test that *first* is (or is not) in *second*.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+ .. method:: assertIsInstance(obj, cls, msg=None)
+ assertNotIsInstance(obj, cls, msg=None)
+
+ Test that *obj* is (or is not) an instance of *cls* (which can be a
+ class or a tuple of classes, as supported by :func:`isinstance`).
+ To check for the exact type, use :func:`assertIs(type(obj), cls) <assertIs>`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+ It is also possible to check that exceptions and warnings are raised using
+ the following methods:
+
+ +---------------------------------------------------------+--------------------------------------+------------+
+ | Method | Checks that | New in |
+ +=========================================================+======================================+============+
+ | :meth:`assertRaises(exc, fun, *args, **kwds) | ``fun(*args, **kwds)`` raises *exc* | |
+ | <TestCase.assertRaises>` | | |
+ +---------------------------------------------------------+--------------------------------------+------------+
+ | :meth:`assertRaisesRegexp(exc, re, fun, *args, **kwds) | ``fun(*args, **kwds)`` raises *exc* | 2.7 |
+ | <TestCase.assertRaisesRegexp>` | and the message matches *re* | |
+ +---------------------------------------------------------+--------------------------------------+------------+
+
+ .. method:: assertRaises(exception, callable, *args, **kwds)
+ assertRaises(exception)
+
+ Test that an exception is raised when *callable* is called with any
+ positional or keyword arguments that are also passed to
+ :meth:`assertRaises`. The test passes if *exception* is raised, is an
+ error if another exception is raised, or fails if no exception is raised.
+ To catch any of a group of exceptions, a tuple containing the exception
+ classes may be passed as *exception*.
+
+ If only the *exception* argument is given, returns a context manager so
+ that the code under test can be written inline rather than as a function::
+
+ with self.assertRaises(SomeException):
+ do_something()
+
+ The context manager will store the caught exception object in its
+ :attr:`exception` attribute. This can be useful if the intention
+ is to perform additional checks on the exception raised::
+
+ with self.assertRaises(SomeException) as cm:
+ do_something()
+
+ the_exception = cm.exception
+ self.assertEqual(the_exception.error_code, 3)
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ Added the ability to use :meth:`assertRaises` as a context manager.
+
+
+ .. method:: assertRaisesRegexp(exception, regexp, callable, *args, **kwds)
+ assertRaisesRegexp(exception, regexp)
+
+ Like :meth:`assertRaises` but also tests that *regexp* matches
+ on the string representation of the raised exception. *regexp* may be
+ a regular expression object or a string containing a regular expression
+ suitable for use by :func:`re.search`. Examples::
+
+ self.assertRaisesRegexp(ValueError, 'invalid literal for.*XYZ$',
+ int, 'XYZ')
+
+ or::
+
+ with self.assertRaisesRegexp(ValueError, 'literal'):
+ int('XYZ')
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+
+ There are also other methods used to perform more specific checks, such as:
+
+ +---------------------------------------+--------------------------------+--------------+
+ | Method | Checks that | New in |
+ +=======================================+================================+==============+
+ | :meth:`assertAlmostEqual(a, b) | ``round(a-b, 7) == 0`` | |
+ | <TestCase.assertAlmostEqual>` | | |

+ | :meth:`assertNotRegexpMatches(s, re) | ``not regex.search(s)`` | 2.7 |
+ | <TestCase.assertNotRegexpMatches>` | | |
+ +---------------------------------------+--------------------------------+--------------+
+ | :meth:`assertItemsEqual(a, b) | sorted(a) == sorted(b) and | 2.7 |

+ +---------------------------------------+--------------------------------+--------------+
+ | :meth:`assertDictContainsSubset(a, b) | all the key/value pairs | 2.7 |
+ | <TestCase.assertDictContainsSubset>` | in *a* exist in *b* | |
+ +---------------------------------------+--------------------------------+--------------+
+
+
+ .. method:: assertAlmostEqual(first, second, places=7, msg=None, delta=None)
+ assertNotAlmostEqual(first, second, places=7, msg=None, delta=None)
+
+ Test that *first* and *second* are approximately (or not approximately)
+ equal by computing the difference, rounding to the given number of
+ decimal *places* (default 7), and comparing to zero. Note that these
+ methods round the values to the given number of *decimal places* (i.e.
+ like the :func:`round` function) and not *significant digits*.
+
+ If *delta* is supplied instead of *places* then the difference
+ between *first* and *second* must be less (or more) than *delta*.
+
+ Supplying both *delta* and *places* raises a ``TypeError``.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ :meth:`assertAlmostEqual` automatically considers almost equal objects
+ that compare equal. :meth:`assertNotAlmostEqual` automatically fails
+ if the objects compare equal. Added the *delta* keyword argument.
+
+
+
+ .. method:: assertGreater(first, second, msg=None)
+ assertGreaterEqual(first, second, msg=None)
+ assertLess(first, second, msg=None)
+ assertLessEqual(first, second, msg=None)
+
+ Test that *first* is respectively >, >=, < or <= than *second* depending
+ on the method name. If not, the test will fail::
+
+ >>> self.assertGreaterEqual(3, 4)
+ AssertionError: "3" unexpectedly not greater than or equal to "4"
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+ .. method:: assertRegexpMatches(text, regexp, msg=None)
+
+ Test that a *regexp* search matches *text*. In case
+ of failure, the error message will include the pattern and the *text* (or
+ the pattern and the part of *text* that unexpectedly matched). *regexp*
+ may be a regular expression object or a string containing a regular
+ expression suitable for use by :func:`re.search`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+ .. method:: assertNotRegexpMatches(text, regexp, msg=None)
+
+ Verifies that a *regexp* search does not match *text*. Fails with an error
+ message including the pattern and the part of *text* that matches. *regexp*
+ may be a regular expression object or a string containing a regular
+ expression suitable for use by :func:`re.search`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+ .. method:: assertItemsEqual(actual, expected, msg=None)
+
+ Test that sequence *expected* contains the same elements as *actual*,
+ regardless of their order. When they don't, an error message listing the
+ differences between the sequences will be generated.
+
+ Duplicate elements are *not* ignored when comparing *actual* and
+ *expected*. It verifies if each element has the same count in both
+ sequences. It is the equivalent of ``assertEqual(sorted(expected),
+ sorted(actual))`` but it works with sequences of unhashable objects as
+ well.
+
+ In Python 3, this method is named ``assertCountEqual``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+ .. method:: assertDictContainsSubset(expected, actual, msg=None)
+
+ Tests whether the key/value pairs in dictionary *actual* are a
+ superset of those in *expected*. If not, an error message listing
+ the missing keys and mismatched values is generated.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+ .. deprecated:: 3.2
+
+
+
+ .. _type-specific-methods:
+
+ The :meth:`assertEqual` method dispatches the equality check for objects of
+ the same type to different type-specific methods. These methods are already
+ implemented for most of the built-in types, but it's also possible to
+ register new methods using :meth:`addTypeEqualityFunc`:
+
+ .. method:: addTypeEqualityFunc(typeobj, function)
+
+ Registers a type-specific method called by :meth:`assertEqual` to check
+ if two objects of exactly the same *typeobj* (not subclasses) compare
+ equal. *function* must take two positional arguments and a third msg=None
+ keyword argument just as :meth:`assertEqual` does. It must raise
+ :data:`self.failureException(msg) <failureException>` when inequality
+ between the first two parameters is detected -- possibly providing useful
+ information and explaining the inequalities in details in the error
+ message.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+ The list of type-specific methods automatically used by
+ :meth:`~TestCase.assertEqual` are summarized in the following table. Note
+ that it's usually not necessary to invoke these methods directly.

+
+
+
+ .. method:: assertMultiLineEqual(first, second, msg=None)
+
+ Test that the multiline string *first* is equal to the string *second*.
+ When not equal a diff of the two strings highlighting the differences
+ will be included in the error message. This method is used by default
+ when comparing strings with :meth:`assertEqual`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+ .. method:: assertSequenceEqual(seq1, seq2, msg=None, seq_type=None)
+
+ Tests that two sequences are equal. If a *seq_type* is supplied, both
+ *seq1* and *seq2* must be instances of *seq_type* or a failure will
+ be raised. If the sequences are different an error message is
+ constructed that shows the difference between the two.
+
+ This method is not called directly by :meth:`assertEqual`, but
+ it's used to implement :meth:`assertListEqual` and
+ :meth:`assertTupleEqual`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+ .. method:: assertListEqual(list1, list2, msg=None)
+ assertTupleEqual(tuple1, tuple2, msg=None)
+
+ Tests that two lists or tuples are equal. If not, an error message is
+ constructed that shows only the differences between the two. An error
+ is also raised if either of the parameters are of the wrong type.
+ These methods are used by default when comparing lists or tuples with
+ :meth:`assertEqual`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+ .. method:: assertSetEqual(set1, set2, msg=None)
+
+ Tests that two sets are equal. If not, an error message is constructed
+ that lists the differences between the sets. This method is used by
+ default when comparing sets or frozensets with :meth:`assertEqual`.
+
+ Fails if either of *set1* or *set2* does not have a :meth:`set.difference`
+ method.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+ .. method:: assertDictEqual(expected, actual, msg=None)
+
+ Test that two dictionaries are equal. If not, an error message is
+ constructed that shows the differences in the dictionaries. This
+ method will be used by default to compare dictionaries in
+ calls to :meth:`assertEqual`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+
+ .. _other-methods-and-attrs:
+
+ Finally the :class:`TestCase` provides the following methods and attributes:
+
+
+ .. method:: fail(msg=None)
+
+ Signals a test failure unconditionally, with *msg* or ``None`` for
+ the error message.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: failureException
+
+ This class attribute gives the exception raised by the test method. If a
+ test framework needs to use a specialized exception, possibly to carry
+ additional information, it must subclass this exception in order to "play
+ fair" with the framework. The initial value of this attribute is
+ :exc:`AssertionError`.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: longMessage
+
+ If set to ``True`` then any explicit failure message you pass in to the
+ :ref:`assert methods <assert-methods>` will be appended to the end of the
+ normal failure message. The normal messages contain useful information
+ about the objects involved, for example the message from assertEqual
+ shows you the repr of the two unequal objects. Setting this attribute
+ to ``True`` allows you to have a custom error message in addition to the
+ normal one.
+
+ This attribute defaults to ``False``, meaning that a custom message passed
+ to an assert method will silence the normal message.
+
+ The class setting can be overridden in individual tests by assigning an
+ instance attribute to ``True`` or ``False`` before calling the assert methods.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+ .. attribute:: maxDiff
+
+ This attribute controls the maximum length of diffs output by assert
+ methods that report diffs on failure. It defaults to 80*8 characters.
+ Assert methods affected by this attribute are
+ :meth:`assertSequenceEqual` (including all the sequence comparison
+ methods that delegate to it), :meth:`assertDictEqual` and
+ :meth:`assertMultiLineEqual`.
+
+ Setting ``maxDiff`` to None means that there is no maximum length of
+ diffs.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+ Testing frameworks can use the following methods to collect information on
+ the test:
+
+
+ .. method:: countTestCases()
+
+ Return the number of tests represented by this test object. For
+ :class:`TestCase` instances, this will always be ``1``.
+
+
+ .. method:: defaultTestResult()
+
+ Return an instance of the test result class that should be used for this
+ test case class (if no other result instance is provided to the
+ :meth:`run` method).
+
+ For :class:`TestCase` instances, this will always be an instance of
+ :class:`TestResult`; subclasses of :class:`TestCase` should override this
+ as necessary.
+
+
+ .. method:: id()
+
+ Return a string identifying the specific test case. This is usually the
+ full name of the test method, including the module and class name.
+
+
+ .. method:: shortDescription()
+
+ Returns a description of the test, or ``None`` if no description
+ has been provided. The default implementation of this method
+ returns the first line of the test method's docstring, if available,
+ or :const:`None`.
+
+
+
+ .. method:: addCleanup(function, *args, **kwargs)
+
+ Add a function to be called after :meth:`tearDown` to cleanup resources
+ used during the test. Functions will be called in reverse order to the
+ order they are added (LIFO). They are called with any arguments and
+ keyword arguments passed into :meth:`addCleanup` when they are
+ added.
+
+ If :meth:`setUp` fails, meaning that :meth:`tearDown` is not called,
+ then any cleanup functions added will still be called.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+ .. method:: doCleanups()
+
+ This method is called unconditionally after :meth:`tearDown`, or
+ after :meth:`setUp` if :meth:`setUp` raises an exception.
+
+ It is responsible for calling all the cleanup functions added by
+ :meth:`addCleanup`. If you need cleanup functions to be called
+ *prior* to :meth:`tearDown` then you can call :meth:`doCleanups`
+ yourself.
+
+ :meth:`doCleanups` pops methods off the stack of cleanup
+ functions one at a time, so it can be called at any time.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+.. class:: FunctionTestCase(testFunc, setUp=None, tearDown=None, description=None)
+
+ This class implements the portion of the :class:`TestCase` interface which
+ allows the test runner to drive the test, but does not provide the methods
+ which test code can use to check and report errors. This is used to create
+ test cases using legacy test code, allowing it to be integrated into a
+ :mod:`unittest`-based test framework.
+
+
+Deprecated aliases
+##################
+
+For historical reasons, some of the :class:`TestCase` methods had one or more
+aliases that are now deprecated. The following table lists the correct names
+along with their deprecated aliases:

+
+.. _testsuite-objects:
+
+Grouping tests
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+.. class:: TestSuite(tests=())
+
+ This class represents an aggregation of individual tests cases and test suites.
+ The class presents the interface needed by the test runner to allow it to be run
+ as any other test case. Running a :class:`TestSuite` instance is the same as
+ iterating over the suite, running each test individually.
+
+ If *tests* is given, it must be an iterable of individual test cases or other
+ test suites that will be used to build the suite initially. Additional methods
+ are provided to add test cases and suites to the collection later on.
+
+ :class:`TestSuite` objects behave much like :class:`TestCase` objects, except
+ they do not actually implement a test. Instead, they are used to aggregate
+ tests into groups of tests that should be run together. Some additional
+ methods are available to add tests to :class:`TestSuite` instances:
+
+
+ .. method:: TestSuite.addTest(test)
+
+ Add a :class:`TestCase` or :class:`TestSuite` to the suite.
+
+
+ .. method:: TestSuite.addTests(tests)
+
+ Add all the tests from an iterable of :class:`TestCase` and :class:`TestSuite`
+ instances to this test suite.
+
+ This is equivalent to iterating over *tests*, calling :meth:`addTest` for
+ each element.
+
+ :class:`TestSuite` shares the following methods with :class:`TestCase`:
+
+
+ .. method:: run(result)
+
+ Run the tests associated with this suite, collecting the result into the
+ test result object passed as *result*. Note that unlike
+ :meth:`TestCase.run`, :meth:`TestSuite.run` requires the result object to
+ be passed in.
+
+
+ .. method:: debug()
+
+ Run the tests associated with this suite without collecting the
+ result. This allows exceptions raised by the test to be propagated to the
+ caller and can be used to support running tests under a debugger.
+
+
+ .. method:: countTestCases()
+
+ Return the number of tests represented by this test object, including all
+ individual tests and sub-suites.
+
+
+ .. method:: __iter__()
+
+ Tests grouped by a :class:`TestSuite` are always accessed by iteration.
+ Subclasses can lazily provide tests by overriding :meth:`__iter__`. Note
+ that this method maybe called several times on a single suite
+ (for example when counting tests or comparing for equality)
+ so the tests returned must be the same for repeated iterations.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ In earlier versions the :class:`TestSuite` accessed tests directly rather
+ than through iteration, so overriding :meth:`__iter__` wasn't sufficient
+ for providing tests.
+
+ In the typical usage of a :class:`TestSuite` object, the :meth:`run` method
+ is invoked by a :class:`TestRunner` rather than by the end-user test harness.
+
+
+Loading and running tests
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+.. class:: TestLoader()
+
+ The :class:`TestLoader` class is used to create test suites from classes and
+ modules. Normally, there is no need to create an instance of this class; the
+ :mod:`unittest` module provides an instance that can be shared as
+ :data:`unittest.defaultTestLoader`. Using a subclass or instance, however,
+ allows customization of some configurable properties.
+
+ :class:`TestLoader` objects have the following methods:
+
+
+ .. method:: loadTestsFromTestCase(testCaseClass)
+
+ Return a suite of all tests cases contained in the :class:`TestCase`\ -derived
+ :class:`testCaseClass`.
+
+
+ .. method:: loadTestsFromModule(module)
+
+ Return a suite of all tests cases contained in the given module. This
+ method searches *module* for classes derived from :class:`TestCase` and
+ creates an instance of the class for each test method defined for the
+ class.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ While using a hierarchy of :class:`TestCase`\ -derived classes can be
+ convenient in sharing fixtures and helper functions, defining test
+ methods on base classes that are not intended to be instantiated
+ directly does not play well with this method. Doing so, however, can
+ be useful when the fixtures are different and defined in subclasses.
+
+ If a module provides a ``load_tests`` function it will be called to
+ load the tests. This allows modules to customize test loading.
+ This is the `load_tests protocol`_.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ Support for ``load_tests`` added.
+
+
+ .. method:: loadTestsFromName(name, module=None)
+
+ Return a suite of all tests cases given a string specifier.
+
+ The specifier *name* is a "dotted name" that may resolve either to a
+ module, a test case class, a test method within a test case class, a
+ :class:`TestSuite` instance, or a callable object which returns a
+ :class:`TestCase` or :class:`TestSuite` instance. These checks are
+ applied in the order listed here; that is, a method on a possible test
+ case class will be picked up as "a test method within a test case class",
+ rather than "a callable object".
+
+ For example, if you have a module :mod:`SampleTests` containing a
+ :class:`TestCase`\ -derived class :class:`SampleTestCase` with three test
+ methods (:meth:`test_one`, :meth:`test_two`, and :meth:`test_three`), the
+ specifier ``'SampleTests.SampleTestCase'`` would cause this method to
+ return a suite which will run all three test methods. Using the specifier
+ ``'SampleTests.SampleTestCase.test_two'`` would cause it to return a test
+ suite which will run only the :meth:`test_two` test method. The specifier
+ can refer to modules and packages which have not been imported; they will
+ be imported as a side-effect.
+
+ The method optionally resolves *name* relative to the given *module*.
+
+
+ .. method:: loadTestsFromNames(names, module=None)
+
+ Similar to :meth:`loadTestsFromName`, but takes a sequence of names rather
+ than a single name. The return value is a test suite which supports all
+ the tests defined for each name.
+
+
+ .. method:: getTestCaseNames(testCaseClass)
+
+ Return a sorted sequence of method names found within *testCaseClass*;
+ this should be a subclass of :class:`TestCase`.
+
+
+ .. method:: discover(start_dir, pattern='test*.py', top_level_dir=None)
+
+ Find and return all test modules from the specified start directory,
+ recursing into subdirectories to find them. Only test files that match
+ *pattern* will be loaded. (Using shell style pattern matching.) Only
+ module names that are importable (i.e. are valid Python identifiers) will
+ be loaded.
+
+ All test modules must be importable from the top level of the project. If
+ the start directory is not the top level directory then the top level
+ directory must be specified separately.
+
+ If importing a module fails, for example due to a syntax error, then this
+ will be recorded as a single error and discovery will continue.
+
+ If a test package name (directory with :file:`__init__.py`) matches the
+ pattern then the package will be checked for a ``load_tests``
+ function. If this exists then it will be called with *loader*, *tests*,
+ *pattern*.
+
+ If load_tests exists then discovery does *not* recurse into the package,
+ ``load_tests`` is responsible for loading all tests in the package.
+
+ The pattern is deliberately not stored as a loader attribute so that
+ packages can continue discovery themselves. *top_level_dir* is stored so
+ ``load_tests`` does not need to pass this argument in to
+ ``loader.discover()``.
+
+ *start_dir* can be a dotted module name as well as a directory.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+ The following attributes of a :class:`TestLoader` can be configured either by
+ subclassing or assignment on an instance:
+
+
+ .. attribute:: testMethodPrefix
+
+ String giving the prefix of method names which will be interpreted as test
+ methods. The default value is ``'test'``.
+
+ This affects :meth:`getTestCaseNames` and all the :meth:`loadTestsFrom\*`
+ methods.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: sortTestMethodsUsing
+
+ Function to be used to compare method names when sorting them in
+ :meth:`getTestCaseNames` and all the :meth:`loadTestsFrom\*` methods. The
+ default value is the built-in :func:`cmp` function; the attribute can also
+ be set to :const:`None` to disable the sort.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: suiteClass
+
+ Callable object that constructs a test suite from a list of tests. No
+ methods on the resulting object are needed. The default value is the
+ :class:`TestSuite` class.
+
+ This affects all the :meth:`loadTestsFrom\*` methods.
+
+
+.. class:: TestResult
+
+ This class is used to compile information about which tests have succeeded
+ and which have failed.
+
+ A :class:`TestResult` object stores the results of a set of tests. The
+ :class:`TestCase` and :class:`TestSuite` classes ensure that results are
+ properly recorded; test authors do not need to worry about recording the
+ outcome of tests.
+
+ Testing frameworks built on top of :mod:`unittest` may want access to the
+ :class:`TestResult` object generated by running a set of tests for reporting
+ purposes; a :class:`TestResult` instance is returned by the
+ :meth:`TestRunner.run` method for this purpose.
+
+ :class:`TestResult` instances have the following attributes that will be of
+ interest when inspecting the results of running a set of tests:
+
+
+ .. attribute:: errors
+
+ A list containing 2-tuples of :class:`TestCase` instances and strings
+ holding formatted tracebacks. Each tuple represents a test which raised an
+ unexpected exception.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.2
+ Contains formatted tracebacks instead of :func:`sys.exc_info` results.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: failures
+
+ A list containing 2-tuples of :class:`TestCase` instances and strings
+ holding formatted tracebacks. Each tuple represents a test where a failure
+ was explicitly signalled using the :meth:`TestCase.fail\*` or
+ :meth:`TestCase.assert\*` methods.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.2
+ Contains formatted tracebacks instead of :func:`sys.exc_info` results.
+
+ .. attribute:: skipped
+
+ A list containing 2-tuples of :class:`TestCase` instances and strings
+ holding the reason for skipping the test.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+ .. attribute:: expectedFailures
+
+ A list containing 2-tuples of :class:`TestCase` instances and strings
+ holding formatted tracebacks. Each tuple represents an expected failure
+ of the test case.
+
+ .. attribute:: unexpectedSuccesses
+
+ A list containing :class:`TestCase` instances that were marked as expected
+ failures, but succeeded.
+
+ .. attribute:: shouldStop
+
+ Set to ``True`` when the execution of tests should stop by :meth:`stop`.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: testsRun
+
+ The total number of tests run so far.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: buffer
+
+ If set to true, ``sys.stdout`` and ``sys.stderr`` will be buffered in between
+ :meth:`startTest` and :meth:`stopTest` being called. Collected output will
+ only be echoed onto the real ``sys.stdout`` and ``sys.stderr`` if the test
+ fails or errors. Any output is also attached to the failure / error message.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+ .. attribute:: failfast
+
+ If set to true :meth:`stop` will be called on the first failure or error,
+ halting the test run.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+ .. method:: wasSuccessful()
+
+ Return ``True`` if all tests run so far have passed, otherwise returns
+ ``False``.
+
+
+ .. method:: stop()
+
+ This method can be called to signal that the set of tests being run should
+ be aborted by setting the :attr:`shouldStop` attribute to ``True``.
+ :class:`TestRunner` objects should respect this flag and return without
+ running any additional tests.
+
+ For example, this feature is used by the :class:`TextTestRunner` class to
+ stop the test framework when the user signals an interrupt from the
+ keyboard. Interactive tools which provide :class:`TestRunner`
+ implementations can use this in a similar manner.
+
+ The following methods of the :class:`TestResult` class are used to maintain
+ the internal data structures, and may be extended in subclasses to support
+ additional reporting requirements. This is particularly useful in building
+ tools which support interactive reporting while tests are being run.
+
+
+ .. method:: startTest(test)
+
+ Called when the test case *test* is about to be run.
+
+ .. method:: stopTest(test)
+
+ Called after the test case *test* has been executed, regardless of the
+ outcome.
+
+ .. method:: startTestRun(test)
+
+ Called once before any tests are executed.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+ .. method:: stopTestRun(test)
+
+ Called once after all tests are executed.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+ .. method:: addError(test, err)
+
+ Called when the test case *test* raises an unexpected exception *err* is a
+ tuple of the form returned by :func:`sys.exc_info`: ``(type, value,
+ traceback)``.
+
+ The default implementation appends a tuple ``(test, formatted_err)`` to
+ the instance's :attr:`errors` attribute, where *formatted_err* is a
+ formatted traceback derived from *err*.
+
+
+ .. method:: addFailure(test, err)
+
+ Called when the test case *test* signals a failure. *err* is a tuple of
+ the form returned by :func:`sys.exc_info`: ``(type, value, traceback)``.
+
+ The default implementation appends a tuple ``(test, formatted_err)`` to
+ the instance's :attr:`failures` attribute, where *formatted_err* is a
+ formatted traceback derived from *err*.
+
+
+ .. method:: addSuccess(test)
+
+ Called when the test case *test* succeeds.
+
+ The default implementation does nothing.
+
+
+ .. method:: addSkip(test, reason)
+
+ Called when the test case *test* is skipped. *reason* is the reason the
+ test gave for skipping.
+
+ The default implementation appends a tuple ``(test, reason)`` to the
+ instance's :attr:`skipped` attribute.
+
+
+ .. method:: addExpectedFailure(test, err)
+
+ Called when the test case *test* fails, but was marked with the
+ :func:`expectedFailure` decorator.
+
+ The default implementation appends a tuple ``(test, formatted_err)`` to
+ the instance's :attr:`expectedFailures` attribute, where *formatted_err*
+ is a formatted traceback derived from *err*.
+
+
+ .. method:: addUnexpectedSuccess(test)
+
+ Called when the test case *test* was marked with the
+ :func:`expectedFailure` decorator, but succeeded.
+
+ The default implementation appends the test to the instance's
+ :attr:`unexpectedSuccesses` attribute.
+
+.. class:: TextTestResult(stream, descriptions, verbosity)
+
+ A concrete implementation of :class:`TestResult` used by the
+ :class:`TextTestRunner`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+ This class was previously named ``_TextTestResult``. The old name still
+ exists as an alias but is deprecated.
+
+.. data:: defaultTestLoader
+
+ Instance of the :class:`TestLoader` class intended to be shared. If no
+ customization of the :class:`TestLoader` is needed, this instance can be used
+ instead of repeatedly creating new instances.
+
+
+.. class:: TextTestRunner(stream=sys.stderr, descriptions=True, verbosity=1)
+
+ A basic test runner implementation which prints results on standard error. It
+ has a few configurable parameters, but is essentially very simple. Graphical
+ applications which run test suites should provide alternate implementations.
+
+ .. method:: _makeResult()
+
+ This method returns the instance of ``TestResult`` used by :meth:`run`.
+ It is not intended to be called directly, but can be overridden in
+ subclasses to provide a custom ``TestResult``.
+
+ ``_makeResult()`` instantiates the class or callable passed in the
+ ``TextTestRunner`` constructor as the ``resultclass`` argument. It
+ defaults to :class:`TextTestResult` if no ``resultclass`` is provided.
+ The result class is instantiated with the following arguments::
+
+ stream, descriptions, verbosity
+
+
+.. function:: main([module[, defaultTest[, argv[, testRunner[, testLoader[, exit[, verbosity[, failfast[, catchbreak[, buffer]]]]]]]]]])
+
+ A command-line program that loads a set of tests from *module* and runs them;
+ this is primarily for making test modules conveniently executable.
+ The simplest use for this function is to include the following line at the
+ end of a test script::
+
+ if __name__ == '__main__':
+ unittest.main()
+
+ You can run tests with more detailed information by passing in the verbosity
+ argument::
+
+ if __name__ == '__main__':
+ unittest.main(verbosity=2)
+
+ The *argv* argument can be a list of options passed to the program, with the
+ first element being the program name. If not specified or ``None``,
+ the values of :data:`sys.argv` are used.
+
+ The *testRunner* argument can either be a test runner class or an already
+ created instance of it. By default ``main`` calls :func:`sys.exit` with
+ an exit code indicating success or failure of the tests run.
+
+ The *testLoader* argument has to be a :class:`TestLoader` instance,
+ and defaults to :data:`defaultTestLoader`.
+
+ ``main`` supports being used from the interactive interpreter by passing in the
+ argument ``exit=False``. This displays the result on standard output without
+ calling :func:`sys.exit`::
+
+ >>> from unittest import main
+ >>> main(module='test_module', exit=False)
+
+ The *failfast*, *catchbreak* and *buffer* parameters have the same
+ effect as the same-name `command-line options`_.
+
+ Calling ``main`` actually returns an instance of the ``TestProgram`` class.
+ This stores the result of the tests run as the ``result`` attribute.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ The *exit*, *verbosity*, *failfast*, *catchbreak* and *buffer*
+ parameters were added.
+
+
+load_tests Protocol
+###################
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+Modules or packages can customize how tests are loaded from them during normal
+test runs or test discovery by implementing a function called ``load_tests``.
+
+If a test module defines ``load_tests`` it will be called by
+:meth:`TestLoader.loadTestsFromModule` with the following arguments::
+
+ load_tests(loader, standard_tests, None)
+
+It should return a :class:`TestSuite`.
+
+*loader* is the instance of :class:`TestLoader` doing the loading.
+*standard_tests* are the tests that would be loaded by default from the
+module. It is common for test modules to only want to add or remove tests
+from the standard set of tests.
+The third argument is used when loading packages as part of test discovery.
+
+A typical ``load_tests`` function that loads tests from a specific set of
+:class:`TestCase` classes may look like::
+
+ test_cases = (TestCase1, TestCase2, TestCase3)
+
+ def load_tests(loader, tests, pattern):
+ suite = TestSuite()
+ for test_class in test_cases:
+ tests = loader.loadTestsFromTestCase(test_class)
+ suite.addTests(tests)
+ return suite
+
+If discovery is started, either from the command line or by calling
+:meth:`TestLoader.discover`, with a pattern that matches a package
+name then the package :file:`__init__.py` will be checked for ``load_tests``.
+
+.. note::
+
+ The default pattern is ``'test*.py'``. This matches all Python files
+ that start with ``'test'`` but *won't* match any test directories.
+
+ A pattern like ``'test*'`` will match test packages as well as
+ modules.
+
+If the package :file:`__init__.py` defines ``load_tests`` then it will be
+called and discovery not continued into the package. ``load_tests``
+is called with the following arguments::
+
+ load_tests(loader, standard_tests, pattern)
+
+This should return a :class:`TestSuite` representing all the tests
+from the package. (``standard_tests`` will only contain tests
+collected from :file:`__init__.py`.)
+
+Because the pattern is passed into ``load_tests`` the package is free to
+continue (and potentially modify) test discovery. A 'do nothing'
+``load_tests`` function for a test package would look like::
+
+ def load_tests(loader, standard_tests, pattern):
+ # top level directory cached on loader instance
+ this_dir = os.path.dirname(__file__)
+ package_tests = loader.discover(start_dir=this_dir, pattern=pattern)
+ standard_tests.addTests(package_tests)
+ return standard_tests
+
+
+Class and Module Fixtures
+-------------------------
+
+Class and module level fixtures are implemented in :class:`TestSuite`. When
+the test suite encounters a test from a new class then :meth:`tearDownClass`
+from the previous class (if there is one) is called, followed by
+:meth:`setUpClass` from the new class.
+
+Similarly if a test is from a different module from the previous test then
+``tearDownModule`` from the previous module is run, followed by
+``setUpModule`` from the new module.
+
+After all the tests have run the final ``tearDownClass`` and
+``tearDownModule`` are run.
+
+Note that shared fixtures do not play well with [potential] features like test
+parallelization and they break test isolation. They should be used with care.
+
+The default ordering of tests created by the unittest test loaders is to group
+all tests from the same modules and classes together. This will lead to
+``setUpClass`` / ``setUpModule`` (etc) being called exactly once per class and
+module. If you randomize the order, so that tests from different modules and
+classes are adjacent to each other, then these shared fixture functions may be
+called multiple times in a single test run.
+
+Shared fixtures are not intended to work with suites with non-standard
+ordering. A ``BaseTestSuite`` still exists for frameworks that don't want to
+support shared fixtures.
+
+If there are any exceptions raised during one of the shared fixture functions
+the test is reported as an error. Because there is no corresponding test
+instance an ``_ErrorHolder`` object (that has the same interface as a
+:class:`TestCase`) is created to represent the error. If you are just using
+the standard unittest test runner then this detail doesn't matter, but if you
+are a framework author it may be relevant.
+
+
+setUpClass and tearDownClass
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+These must be implemented as class methods::
+
+ import unittest
+
+ class Test(unittest.TestCase):
+ @classmethod
+ def setUpClass(cls):
+ cls._connection = createExpensiveConnectionObject()
+
+ @classmethod
+ def tearDownClass(cls):
+ cls._connection.destroy()
+
+If you want the ``setUpClass`` and ``tearDownClass`` on base classes called
+then you must call up to them yourself. The implementations in
+:class:`TestCase` are empty.
+
+If an exception is raised during a ``setUpClass`` then the tests in the class
+are not run and the ``tearDownClass`` is not run. Skipped classes will not
+have ``setUpClass`` or ``tearDownClass`` run. If the exception is a
+:exc:`SkipTest` exception then the class will be reported as having been skipped
+instead of as an error.
+
+
+setUpModule and tearDownModule
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+These should be implemented as functions::
+
+ def setUpModule():
+ createConnection()
+
+ def tearDownModule():
+ closeConnection()
+
+If an exception is raised in a ``setUpModule`` then none of the tests in the
+module will be run and the ``tearDownModule`` will not be run. If the exception is a
+:exc:`SkipTest` exception then the module will be reported as having been skipped
+instead of as an error.
+
+
+Signal Handling
+---------------
+
+The :option:`-c/--catch <unittest -c>` command-line option to unittest,
+along with the ``catchbreak`` parameter to :func:`unittest.main()`, provide
+more friendly handling of control-C during a test run. With catch break
+behavior enabled control-C will allow the currently running test to complete,
+and the test run will then end and report all the results so far. A second
+control-c will raise a :exc:`KeyboardInterrupt` in the usual way.
+
+The control-c handling signal handler attempts to remain compatible with code or
+tests that install their own :const:`signal.SIGINT` handler. If the ``unittest``
+handler is called but *isn't* the installed :const:`signal.SIGINT` handler,
+i.e. it has been replaced by the system under test and delegated to, then it
+calls the default handler. This will normally be the expected behavior by code
+that replaces an installed handler and delegates to it. For individual tests
+that need ``unittest`` control-c handling disabled the :func:`removeHandler`
+decorator can be used.
+
+There are a few utility functions for framework authors to enable control-c
+handling functionality within test frameworks.
+
+.. function:: installHandler()
+
+ Install the control-c handler. When a :const:`signal.SIGINT` is received
+ (usually in response to the user pressing control-c) all registered results
+ have :meth:`~TestResult.stop` called.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+.. function:: registerResult(result)
+
+ Register a :class:`TestResult` object for control-c handling. Registering a
+ result stores a weak reference to it, so it doesn't prevent the result from
+ being garbage collected.
+
+ Registering a :class:`TestResult` object has no side-effects if control-c
+ handling is not enabled, so test frameworks can unconditionally register
+ all results they create independently of whether or not handling is enabled.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+.. function:: removeResult(result)
+
+ Remove a registered result. Once a result has been removed then
+ :meth:`~TestResult.stop` will no longer be called on that result object in
+ response to a control-c.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+.. function:: removeHandler(function=None)
+
+ When called without arguments this function removes the control-c handler
+ if it has been installed. This function can also be used as a test decorator
+ to temporarily remove the handler whilst the test is being executed::
+
+ @unittest.removeHandler
+ def test_signal_handling(self):
+ ...
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7

+:mod:`urllib` --- Open arbitrary resources by URL
+=================================================
+
+.. module:: urllib
+ :synopsis: Open an arbitrary network resource by URL (requires sockets).
+
+.. note::
+ The :mod:`urllib` module has been split into parts and renamed in
+ Python 3 to :mod:`urllib.request`, :mod:`urllib.parse`,
+ and :mod:`urllib.error`. The :term:`2to3` tool will automatically adapt
+ imports when converting your sources to Python 3.
+ Also note that the :func:`urllib.urlopen` function has been removed in
+ Python 3 in favor of :func:`urllib2.urlopen`.
+
+.. index::
+ single: WWW
+ single: World Wide Web
+ single: URL
+
+This module provides a high-level interface for fetching data across the World
+Wide Web. In particular, the :func:`urlopen` function is similar to the
+built-in function :func:`open`, but accepts Universal Resource Locators (URLs)
+instead of filenames. Some restrictions apply --- it can only open URLs for
+reading, and no seek operations are available.
+
+.. warning:: When opening HTTPS URLs, it does not attempt to validate the
+ server certificate. Use at your own risk!
+
+
+High-level interface
+--------------------
+
+.. function:: urlopen(url[, data[, proxies]])
+
+ Open a network object denoted by a URL for reading. If the URL does not
+ have a scheme identifier, or if it has :file:`file:` as its scheme
+ identifier, this opens a local file (without :term:`universal newlines`);
+ otherwise it opens a socket to a server somewhere on the network. If the
+ connection cannot be made the :exc:`IOError` exception is raised. If all
+ went well, a file-like object is returned. This supports the following
+ methods: :meth:`read`, :meth:`readline`, :meth:`readlines`, :meth:`fileno`,
+ :meth:`close`, :meth:`info`, :meth:`getcode` and :meth:`geturl`. It also
+ has proper support for the :term:`iterator` protocol. One caveat: the
+ :meth:`read` method, if the size argument is omitted or negative, may not
+ read until the end of the data stream; there is no good way to determine
+ that the entire stream from a socket has been read in the general case.
+
+ Except for the :meth:`info`, :meth:`getcode` and :meth:`geturl` methods,
+ these methods have the same interface as for file objects --- see section
+ :ref:`bltin-file-objects` in this manual. (It is not a built-in file object,
+ however, so it can't be used at those few places where a true built-in file
+ object is required.)
+
+ .. index:: module: mimetools
+
+ The :meth:`info` method returns an instance of the class
+ :class:`mimetools.Message` containing meta-information associated with the
+ URL. When the method is HTTP, these headers are those returned by the server
+ at the head of the retrieved HTML page (including Content-Length and
+ Content-Type). When the method is FTP, a Content-Length header will be
+ present if (as is now usual) the server passed back a file length in response
+ to the FTP retrieval request. A Content-Type header will be present if the
+ MIME type can be guessed. When the method is local-file, returned headers
+ will include a Date representing the file's last-modified time, a
+ Content-Length giving file size, and a Content-Type containing a guess at the
+ file's type. See also the description of the :mod:`mimetools` module.
+
+ The :meth:`geturl` method returns the real URL of the page. In some cases, the
+ HTTP server redirects a client to another URL. The :func:`urlopen` function
+ handles this transparently, but in some cases the caller needs to know which URL
+ the client was redirected to. The :meth:`geturl` method can be used to get at
+ this redirected URL.
+
+ The :meth:`getcode` method returns the HTTP status code that was sent with the
+ response, or ``None`` if the URL is no HTTP URL.
+
+ If the *url* uses the :file:`http:` scheme identifier, the optional *data*
+ argument may be given to specify a ``POST`` request (normally the request type
+ is ``GET``). The *data* argument must be in standard
+ :mimetype:`application/x-www-form-urlencoded` format; see the :func:`urlencode`
+ function below.
+
+ The :func:`urlopen` function works transparently with proxies which do not
+ require authentication. In a Unix or Windows environment, set the
+ :envvar:`http_proxy`, or :envvar:`ftp_proxy` environment variables to a URL that
+ identifies the proxy server before starting the Python interpreter. For example
+ (the ``'%'`` is the command prompt)::
+
+ % http_proxy="http://www.someproxy.com:3128"
+ % export http_proxy
+ % python
+ ...
+
+ The :envvar:`no_proxy` environment variable can be used to specify hosts which
+ shouldn't be reached via proxy; if set, it should be a comma-separated list
+ of hostname suffixes, optionally with ``:port`` appended, for example
+ ``cern.ch,ncsa.uiuc.edu,some.host:8080``.
+
+ In a Windows environment, if no proxy environment variables are set, proxy
+ settings are obtained from the registry's Internet Settings section.
+
+ .. index:: single: Internet Config
+
+ In a Mac OS X environment, :func:`urlopen` will retrieve proxy information
+ from the OS X System Configuration Framework, which can be managed with
+ Network System Preferences panel.
+
+
+ Alternatively, the optional *proxies* argument may be used to explicitly specify
+ proxies. It must be a dictionary mapping scheme names to proxy URLs, where an
+ empty dictionary causes no proxies to be used, and ``None`` (the default value)
+ causes environmental proxy settings to be used as discussed above. For
+ example::
+
+ # Use http://www.someproxy.com:3128 for http proxying
+ proxies = {'http': 'http://www.someproxy.com:3128'}
+ filehandle = urllib.urlopen(some_url, proxies=proxies)
+ # Don't use any proxies
+ filehandle = urllib.urlopen(some_url, proxies={})
+ # Use proxies from environment - both versions are equivalent
+ filehandle = urllib.urlopen(some_url, proxies=None)
+ filehandle = urllib.urlopen(some_url)
+
+ Proxies which require authentication for use are not currently supported; this
+ is considered an implementation limitation.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ Added the *proxies* support.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ Added :meth:`getcode` to returned object and support for the
+ :envvar:`no_proxy` environment variable.
+
+ .. deprecated:: 2.6
+ The :func:`urlopen` function has been removed in Python 3 in favor
+ of :func:`urllib2.urlopen`.
+
+
+.. function:: urlretrieve(url[, filename[, reporthook[, data]]])
+
+ Copy a network object denoted by a URL to a local file, if necessary. If the URL
+ points to a local file, or a valid cached copy of the object exists, the object
+ is not copied. Return a tuple ``(filename, headers)`` where *filename* is the
+ local file name under which the object can be found, and *headers* is whatever
+ the :meth:`info` method of the object returned by :func:`urlopen` returned (for
+ a remote object, possibly cached). Exceptions are the same as for
+ :func:`urlopen`.
+
+ The second argument, if present, specifies the file location to copy to (if
+ absent, the location will be a tempfile with a generated name). The third
+ argument, if present, is a hook function that will be called once on
+ establishment of the network connection and once after each block read
+ thereafter. The hook will be passed three arguments; a count of blocks
+ transferred so far, a block size in bytes, and the total size of the file. The
+ third argument may be ``-1`` on older FTP servers which do not return a file
+ size in response to a retrieval request.
+
+ If the *url* uses the :file:`http:` scheme identifier, the optional *data*
+ argument may be given to specify a ``POST`` request (normally the request type
+ is ``GET``). The *data* argument must in standard
+ :mimetype:`application/x-www-form-urlencoded` format; see the :func:`urlencode`
+ function below.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ :func:`urlretrieve` will raise :exc:`ContentTooShortError` when it detects that
+ the amount of data available was less than the expected amount (which is the
+ size reported by a *Content-Length* header). This can occur, for example, when
+ the download is interrupted.
+
+ The *Content-Length* is treated as a lower bound: if there's more data to read,
+ :func:`urlretrieve` reads more data, but if less data is available, it raises
+ the exception.
+
+ You can still retrieve the downloaded data in this case, it is stored in the
+ :attr:`content` attribute of the exception instance.
+
+ If no *Content-Length* header was supplied, :func:`urlretrieve` can not check
+ the size of the data it has downloaded, and just returns it. In this case you
+ just have to assume that the download was successful.
+
+
+.. data:: _urlopener
+
+ The public functions :func:`urlopen` and :func:`urlretrieve` create an instance
+ of the :class:`FancyURLopener` class and use it to perform their requested
+ actions. To override this functionality, programmers can create a subclass of
+ :class:`URLopener` or :class:`FancyURLopener`, then assign an instance of that
+ class to the ``urllib._urlopener`` variable before calling the desired function.
+ For example, applications may want to specify a different
+ :mailheader:`User-Agent` header than :class:`URLopener` defines. This can be
+ accomplished with the following code::
+
+ import urllib
+
+ class AppURLopener(urllib.FancyURLopener):
+ version = "App/1.7"
+
+ urllib._urlopener = AppURLopener()
+
+
+.. function:: urlcleanup()
+
+ Clear the cache that may have been built up by previous calls to
+ :func:`urlretrieve`.
+
+
+Utility functions
+-----------------
+
+.. function:: quote(string[, safe])
+
+ Replace special characters in *string* using the ``%xx`` escape. Letters,
+ digits, and the characters ``'_.-'`` are never quoted. By default, this
+ function is intended for quoting the path section of the URL. The optional
+ *safe* parameter specifies additional characters that should not be quoted
+ --- its default value is ``'/'``.
+
+ Example: ``quote('/~connolly/')`` yields ``'/%7econnolly/'``.
+
+
+.. function:: quote_plus(string[, safe])
+
+ Like :func:`quote`, but also replaces spaces by plus signs, as required for
+ quoting HTML form values when building up a query string to go into a URL.
+ Plus signs in the original string are escaped unless they are included in
+ *safe*. It also does not have *safe* default to ``'/'``.
+
+
+.. function:: unquote(string)
+
+ Replace ``%xx`` escapes by their single-character equivalent.
+
+ Example: ``unquote('/%7Econnolly/')`` yields ``'/~connolly/'``.
+
+
+.. function:: unquote_plus(string)
+
+ Like :func:`unquote`, but also replaces plus signs by spaces, as required for
+ unquoting HTML form values.
+
+
+.. function:: urlencode(query[, doseq])
+
+ Convert a mapping object or a sequence of two-element tuples to a
+ "percent-encoded" string, suitable to pass to :func:`urlopen` above as the
+ optional *data* argument. This is useful to pass a dictionary of form
+ fields to a ``POST`` request. The resulting string is a series of
+ ``key=value`` pairs separated by ``'&'`` characters, where both *key* and
+ *value* are quoted using :func:`quote_plus` above. When a sequence of
+ two-element tuples is used as the *query* argument, the first element of
+ each tuple is a key and the second is a value. The value element in itself
+ can be a sequence and in that case, if the optional parameter *doseq* is
+ evaluates to *True*, individual ``key=value`` pairs separated by ``'&'`` are
+ generated for each element of the value sequence for the key. The order of
+ parameters in the encoded string will match the order of parameter tuples in
+ the sequence. The :mod:`urlparse` module provides the functions
+ :func:`parse_qs` and :func:`parse_qsl` which are used to parse query strings
+ into Python data structures.
+
+
+.. function:: pathname2url(path)
+
+ Convert the pathname *path* from the local syntax for a path to the form used in
+ the path component of a URL. This does not produce a complete URL. The return
+ value will already be quoted using the :func:`quote` function.
+
+
+.. function:: url2pathname(path)
+
+ Convert the path component *path* from an percent-encoded URL to the local syntax for a
+ path. This does not accept a complete URL. This function uses :func:`unquote`
+ to decode *path*.
+
+
+.. function:: getproxies()
+
+ This helper function returns a dictionary of scheme to proxy server URL
+ mappings. It scans the environment for variables named ``<scheme>_proxy``,
+ in case insensitive way, for all operating systems first, and when it cannot
+ find it, looks for proxy information from Mac OSX System Configuration for
+ Mac OS X and Windows Systems Registry for Windows.
+
+.. note::
+ urllib also exposes certain utility functions like splittype, splithost and
+ others parsing url into various components. But it is recommended to use
+ :mod:`urlparse` for parsing urls than using these functions directly.
+ Python 3 does not expose these helper functions from :mod:`urllib.parse`
+ module.
+
+
+URL Opener objects
+------------------
+
+.. class:: URLopener([proxies[, **x509]])
+
+ Base class for opening and reading URLs. Unless you need to support opening
+ objects using schemes other than :file:`http:`, :file:`ftp:`, or :file:`file:`,
+ you probably want to use :class:`FancyURLopener`.
+
+ By default, the :class:`URLopener` class sends a :mailheader:`User-Agent` header
+ of ``urllib/VVV``, where *VVV* is the :mod:`urllib` version number.
+ Applications can define their own :mailheader:`User-Agent` header by subclassing
+ :class:`URLopener` or :class:`FancyURLopener` and setting the class attribute
+ :attr:`version` to an appropriate string value in the subclass definition.
+
+ The optional *proxies* parameter should be a dictionary mapping scheme names to
+ proxy URLs, where an empty dictionary turns proxies off completely. Its default
+ value is ``None``, in which case environmental proxy settings will be used if
+ present, as discussed in the definition of :func:`urlopen`, above.
+
+ Additional keyword parameters, collected in *x509*, may be used for
+ authentication of the client when using the :file:`https:` scheme. The keywords
+ *key_file* and *cert_file* are supported to provide an SSL key and certificate;
+ both are needed to support client authentication.
+
+ :class:`URLopener` objects will raise an :exc:`IOError` exception if the server
+ returns an error code.
+
+ .. method:: open(fullurl[, data])
+
+ Open *fullurl* using the appropriate protocol. This method sets up cache and
+ proxy information, then calls the appropriate open method with its input
+ arguments. If the scheme is not recognized, :meth:`open_unknown` is called.
+ The *data* argument has the same meaning as the *data* argument of
+ :func:`urlopen`.
+
+
+ .. method:: open_unknown(fullurl[, data])
+
+ Overridable interface to open unknown URL types.
+
+
+ .. method:: retrieve(url[, filename[, reporthook[, data]]])
+
+ Retrieves the contents of *url* and places it in *filename*. The return value
+ is a tuple consisting of a local filename and either a
+ :class:`mimetools.Message` object containing the response headers (for remote
+ URLs) or ``None`` (for local URLs). The caller must then open and read the
+ contents of *filename*. If *filename* is not given and the URL refers to a
+ local file, the input filename is returned. If the URL is non-local and
+ *filename* is not given, the filename is the output of :func:`tempfile.mktemp`
+ with a suffix that matches the suffix of the last path component of the input
+ URL. If *reporthook* is given, it must be a function accepting three numeric
+ parameters. It will be called after each chunk of data is read from the
+ network. *reporthook* is ignored for local URLs.
+
+ If the *url* uses the :file:`http:` scheme identifier, the optional *data*
+ argument may be given to specify a ``POST`` request (normally the request type
+ is ``GET``). The *data* argument must in standard
+ :mimetype:`application/x-www-form-urlencoded` format; see the :func:`urlencode`
+ function below.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: version
+
+ Variable that specifies the user agent of the opener object. To get
+ :mod:`urllib` to tell servers that it is a particular user agent, set this in a
+ subclass as a class variable or in the constructor before calling the base
+ constructor.
+
+
+.. class:: FancyURLopener(...)
+
+ :class:`FancyURLopener` subclasses :class:`URLopener` providing default handling
+ for the following HTTP response codes: 301, 302, 303, 307 and 401. For the 30x
+ response codes listed above, the :mailheader:`Location` header is used to fetch
+ the actual URL. For 401 response codes (authentication required), basic HTTP
+ authentication is performed. For the 30x response codes, recursion is bounded
+ by the value of the *maxtries* attribute, which defaults to 10.
+
+ For all other response codes, the method :meth:`http_error_default` is called
+ which you can override in subclasses to handle the error appropriately.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ According to the letter of :rfc:`2616`, 301 and 302 responses to POST requests
+ must not be automatically redirected without confirmation by the user. In
+ reality, browsers do allow automatic redirection of these responses, changing
+ the POST to a GET, and :mod:`urllib` reproduces this behaviour.
+
+ The parameters to the constructor are the same as those for :class:`URLopener`.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ When performing basic authentication, a :class:`FancyURLopener` instance calls
+ its :meth:`prompt_user_passwd` method. The default implementation asks the
+ users for the required information on the controlling terminal. A subclass may
+ override this method to support more appropriate behavior if needed.
+
+ The :class:`FancyURLopener` class offers one additional method that should be
+ overloaded to provide the appropriate behavior:
+
+ .. method:: prompt_user_passwd(host, realm)
+
+ Return information needed to authenticate the user at the given host in the
+ specified security realm. The return value should be a tuple, ``(user,
+ password)``, which can be used for basic authentication.
+
+ The implementation prompts for this information on the terminal; an application
+ should override this method to use an appropriate interaction model in the local
+ environment.
+
+.. exception:: ContentTooShortError(msg[, content])
+
+ This exception is raised when the :func:`urlretrieve` function detects that the
+ amount of the downloaded data is less than the expected amount (given by the
+ *Content-Length* header). The :attr:`content` attribute stores the downloaded
+ (and supposedly truncated) data.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+:mod:`urllib` Restrictions
+--------------------------
+
+ .. index::
+ pair: HTTP; protocol
+ pair: FTP; protocol
+
+* Currently, only the following protocols are supported: HTTP, (versions 0.9 and
+ 1.0), FTP, and local files.
+
+* The caching feature of :func:`urlretrieve` has been disabled until I find the
+ time to hack proper processing of Expiration time headers.
+
+* There should be a function to query whether a particular URL is in the cache.
+
+* For backward compatibility, if a URL appears to point to a local file but the
+ file can't be opened, the URL is re-interpreted using the FTP protocol. This
+ can sometimes cause confusing error messages.
+
+* The :func:`urlopen` and :func:`urlretrieve` functions can cause arbitrarily
+ long delays while waiting for a network connection to be set up. This means
+ that it is difficult to build an interactive Web client using these functions
+ without using threads.
+
+ .. index::
+ single: HTML
+ pair: HTTP; protocol
+ module: htmllib
+
+* The data returned by :func:`urlopen` or :func:`urlretrieve` is the raw data
+ returned by the server. This may be binary data (such as an image), plain text
+ or (for example) HTML. The HTTP protocol provides type information in the reply
+ header, which can be inspected by looking at the :mailheader:`Content-Type`
+ header. If the returned data is HTML, you can use the module :mod:`htmllib` to
+ parse it.
+
+ .. index:: single: FTP
+
+* The code handling the FTP protocol cannot differentiate between a file and a
+ directory. This can lead to unexpected behavior when attempting to read a URL
+ that points to a file that is not accessible. If the URL ends in a ``/``, it is
+ assumed to refer to a directory and will be handled accordingly. But if an
+ attempt to read a file leads to a 550 error (meaning the URL cannot be found or
+ is not accessible, often for permission reasons), then the path is treated as a
+ directory in order to handle the case when a directory is specified by a URL but
+ the trailing ``/`` has been left off. This can cause misleading results when
+ you try to fetch a file whose read permissions make it inaccessible; the FTP
+ code will try to read it, fail with a 550 error, and then perform a directory
+ listing for the unreadable file. If fine-grained control is needed, consider
+ using the :mod:`ftplib` module, subclassing :class:`FancyURLopener`, or changing
+ *_urlopener* to meet your needs.
+
+* This module does not support the use of proxies which require authentication.
+ This may be implemented in the future.
+
+ .. index:: module: urlparse
+
+* Although the :mod:`urllib` module contains (undocumented) routines to parse
+ and unparse URL strings, the recommended interface for URL manipulation is in
+ module :mod:`urlparse`.

+
+Examples
+--------
+
+Here is an example session that uses the ``GET`` method to retrieve a URL
+containing parameters::
+
+ >>> import urllib
+ >>> params = urllib.urlencode({'spam': 1, 'eggs': 2, 'bacon': 0})
+ >>> f = urllib.urlopen("http://www.musi-cal.com/cgi-bin/query?%s" % params)
+ >>> print f.read()
+
+The following example uses the ``POST`` method instead::
+
+ >>> import urllib
+ >>> params = urllib.urlencode({'spam': 1, 'eggs': 2, 'bacon': 0})
+ >>> f = urllib.urlopen("http://www.musi-cal.com/cgi-bin/query", params)
+ >>> print f.read()
+
+The following example uses an explicitly specified HTTP proxy, overriding
+environment settings::
+
+ >>> import urllib
+ >>> proxies = {'http': 'http://proxy.example.com:8080/'}
+ >>> opener = urllib.FancyURLopener(proxies)
+ >>> f = opener.open("http://www.python.org")
+ >>> f.read()
+
+The following example uses no proxies at all, overriding environment settings::
+
+ >>> import urllib
+ >>> opener = urllib.FancyURLopener({})
+ >>> f = opener.open("http://www.python.org/")
+ >>> f.read()

+:mod:`urllib2` --- extensible library for opening URLs
+======================================================
+
+.. module:: urllib2
+ :synopsis: Next generation URL opening library.
+.. moduleauthor:: Jeremy Hylton <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Moshe Zadka <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. note::
+ The :mod:`urllib2` module has been split across several modules in
+ Python 3 named :mod:`urllib.request` and :mod:`urllib.error`.
+ The :term:`2to3` tool will automatically adapt imports when converting
+ your sources to Python 3.
+
+
+The :mod:`urllib2` module defines functions and classes which help in opening
+URLs (mostly HTTP) in a complex world --- basic and digest authentication,
+redirections, cookies and more.
+
+
+The :mod:`urllib2` module defines the following functions:
+
+
+.. function:: urlopen(url[, data][, timeout])
+
+ Open the URL *url*, which can be either a string or a :class:`Request` object.
+
+ .. warning::
+ HTTPS requests do not do any verification of the server's certificate.
+
+ *data* may be a string specifying additional data to send to the server, or
+ ``None`` if no such data is needed. Currently HTTP requests are the only ones
+ that use *data*; the HTTP request will be a POST instead of a GET when the
+ *data* parameter is provided. *data* should be a buffer in the standard
+ :mimetype:`application/x-www-form-urlencoded` format. The
+ :func:`urllib.urlencode` function takes a mapping or sequence of 2-tuples and
+ returns a string in this format. urllib2 module sends HTTP/1.1 requests with
+ ``Connection:close`` header included.
+
+ The optional *timeout* parameter specifies a timeout in seconds for blocking
+ operations like the connection attempt (if not specified, the global default
+ timeout setting will be used). This actually only works for HTTP, HTTPS and
+ FTP connections.
+
+ This function returns a file-like object with two additional methods:
+
+ * :meth:`geturl` --- return the URL of the resource retrieved, commonly used to
+ determine if a redirect was followed
+
+ * :meth:`info` --- return the meta-information of the page, such as headers,
+ in the form of an :class:`mimetools.Message` instance
+ (see `Quick Reference to HTTP Headers <http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/http.html>`_)
+
+ * :meth:`getcode` --- return the HTTP status code of the response.
+
+ Raises :exc:`URLError` on errors.
+
+ Note that ``None`` may be returned if no handler handles the request (though the
+ default installed global :class:`OpenerDirector` uses :class:`UnknownHandler` to
+ ensure this never happens).
+
+ In addition, if proxy settings are detected (for example, when a ``*_proxy``
+ environment variable like :envvar:`http_proxy` is set),
+ :class:`ProxyHandler` is default installed and makes sure the requests are
+ handled through the proxy.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ *timeout* was added.
+
+
+.. function:: install_opener(opener)
+
+ Install an :class:`OpenerDirector` instance as the default global opener.
+ Installing an opener is only necessary if you want urlopen to use that opener;
+ otherwise, simply call :meth:`OpenerDirector.open` instead of :func:`urlopen`.
+ The code does not check for a real :class:`OpenerDirector`, and any class with
+ the appropriate interface will work.
+
+
+.. function:: build_opener([handler, ...])
+
+ Return an :class:`OpenerDirector` instance, which chains the handlers in the
+ order given. *handler*\s can be either instances of :class:`BaseHandler`, or
+ subclasses of :class:`BaseHandler` (in which case it must be possible to call
+ the constructor without any parameters). Instances of the following classes
+ will be in front of the *handler*\s, unless the *handler*\s contain them,
+ instances of them or subclasses of them: :class:`ProxyHandler` (if proxy
+ settings are detected),
+ :class:`UnknownHandler`, :class:`HTTPHandler`, :class:`HTTPDefaultErrorHandler`,
+ :class:`HTTPRedirectHandler`, :class:`FTPHandler`, :class:`FileHandler`,
+ :class:`HTTPErrorProcessor`.
+
+ If the Python installation has SSL support (i.e., if the :mod:`ssl` module can be imported),
+ :class:`HTTPSHandler` will also be added.
+
+ Beginning in Python 2.3, a :class:`BaseHandler` subclass may also change its
+ :attr:`handler_order` attribute to modify its position in the handlers
+ list.
+
+The following exceptions are raised as appropriate:
+
+
+.. exception:: URLError
+
+ The handlers raise this exception (or derived exceptions) when they run into a
+ problem. It is a subclass of :exc:`IOError`.
+
+ .. attribute:: reason
+
+ The reason for this error. It can be a message string or another exception
+ instance (:exc:`socket.error` for remote URLs, :exc:`OSError` for local
+ URLs).
+
+
+.. exception:: HTTPError
+
+ Though being an exception (a subclass of :exc:`URLError`), an :exc:`HTTPError`
+ can also function as a non-exceptional file-like return value (the same thing
+ that :func:`urlopen` returns). This is useful when handling exotic HTTP
+ errors, such as requests for authentication.
+
+ .. attribute:: code
+
+ An HTTP status code as defined in `RFC 2616 <http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2616.html>`_.
+ This numeric value corresponds to a value found in the dictionary of
+ codes as found in :attr:`BaseHTTPServer.BaseHTTPRequestHandler.responses`.
+
+ .. attribute:: reason
+
+ The reason for this error. It can be a message string or another exception
+ instance.
+
+The following classes are provided:
+
+
+.. class:: Request(url[, data][, headers][, origin_req_host][, unverifiable])
+
+ This class is an abstraction of a URL request.
+
+ *url* should be a string containing a valid URL.
+
+ *data* may be a string specifying additional data to send to the server, or
+ ``None`` if no such data is needed. Currently HTTP requests are the only ones
+ that use *data*; the HTTP request will be a POST instead of a GET when the
+ *data* parameter is provided. *data* should be a buffer in the standard
+ :mimetype:`application/x-www-form-urlencoded` format. The
+ :func:`urllib.urlencode` function takes a mapping or sequence of 2-tuples and
+ returns a string in this format.
+
+ *headers* should be a dictionary, and will be treated as if :meth:`add_header`
+ was called with each key and value as arguments. This is often used to "spoof"
+ the ``User-Agent`` header, which is used by a browser to identify itself --
+ some HTTP servers only allow requests coming from common browsers as opposed
+ to scripts. For example, Mozilla Firefox may identify itself as ``"Mozilla/5.0
+ (X11; U; Linux i686) Gecko/20071127 Firefox/2.0.0.11"``, while :mod:`urllib2`'s
+ default user agent string is ``"Python-urllib/2.6"`` (on Python 2.6).
+
+ The final two arguments are only of interest for correct handling of third-party
+ HTTP cookies:
+
+ *origin_req_host* should be the request-host of the origin transaction, as
+ defined by :rfc:`2965`. It defaults to ``cookielib.request_host(self)``. This
+ is the host name or IP address of the original request that was initiated by the
+ user. For example, if the request is for an image in an HTML document, this
+ should be the request-host of the request for the page containing the image.
+
+ *unverifiable* should indicate whether the request is unverifiable, as defined
+ by RFC 2965. It defaults to False. An unverifiable request is one whose URL
+ the user did not have the option to approve. For example, if the request is for
+ an image in an HTML document, and the user had no option to approve the
+ automatic fetching of the image, this should be true.
+
+
+.. class:: OpenerDirector()
+
+ The :class:`OpenerDirector` class opens URLs via :class:`BaseHandler`\ s chained
+ together. It manages the chaining of handlers, and recovery from errors.
+
+
+.. class:: BaseHandler()
+
+ This is the base class for all registered handlers --- and handles only the
+ simple mechanics of registration.
+
+
+.. class:: HTTPDefaultErrorHandler()
+
+ A class which defines a default handler for HTTP error responses; all responses
+ are turned into :exc:`HTTPError` exceptions.
+
+
+.. class:: HTTPRedirectHandler()
+
+ A class to handle redirections.
+
+
+.. class:: HTTPCookieProcessor([cookiejar])
+
+ A class to handle HTTP Cookies.
+
+
+.. class:: ProxyHandler([proxies])
+
+ Cause requests to go through a proxy. If *proxies* is given, it must be a
+ dictionary mapping protocol names to URLs of proxies. The default is to read
+ the list of proxies from the environment variables
+ :envvar:`<protocol>_proxy`. If no proxy environment variables are set, then
+ in a Windows environment proxy settings are obtained from the registry's
+ Internet Settings section, and in a Mac OS X environment proxy information
+ is retrieved from the OS X System Configuration Framework.
+
+ To disable autodetected proxy pass an empty dictionary.
+
+
+.. class:: HTTPPasswordMgr()
+
+ Keep a database of ``(realm, uri) -> (user, password)`` mappings.
+
+
+.. class:: HTTPPasswordMgrWithDefaultRealm()
+
+ Keep a database of ``(realm, uri) -> (user, password)`` mappings. A realm of
+ ``None`` is considered a catch-all realm, which is searched if no other realm
+ fits.
+
+
+.. class:: AbstractBasicAuthHandler([password_mgr])
+
+ This is a mixin class that helps with HTTP authentication, both to the remote
+ host and to a proxy. *password_mgr*, if given, should be something that is
+ compatible with :class:`HTTPPasswordMgr`; refer to section
+ :ref:`http-password-mgr` for information on the interface that must be
+ supported.
+
+
+.. class:: HTTPBasicAuthHandler([password_mgr])
+
+ Handle authentication with the remote host. *password_mgr*, if given, should be
+ something that is compatible with :class:`HTTPPasswordMgr`; refer to section
+ :ref:`http-password-mgr` for information on the interface that must be
+ supported.
+
+
+.. class:: ProxyBasicAuthHandler([password_mgr])
+
+ Handle authentication with the proxy. *password_mgr*, if given, should be
+ something that is compatible with :class:`HTTPPasswordMgr`; refer to section
+ :ref:`http-password-mgr` for information on the interface that must be
+ supported.
+
+
+.. class:: AbstractDigestAuthHandler([password_mgr])
+
+ This is a mixin class that helps with HTTP authentication, both to the remote
+ host and to a proxy. *password_mgr*, if given, should be something that is
+ compatible with :class:`HTTPPasswordMgr`; refer to section
+ :ref:`http-password-mgr` for information on the interface that must be
+ supported.
+
+
+.. class:: HTTPDigestAuthHandler([password_mgr])
+
+ Handle authentication with the remote host. *password_mgr*, if given, should be
+ something that is compatible with :class:`HTTPPasswordMgr`; refer to section
+ :ref:`http-password-mgr` for information on the interface that must be
+ supported.
+
+
+.. class:: ProxyDigestAuthHandler([password_mgr])
+
+ Handle authentication with the proxy. *password_mgr*, if given, should be
+ something that is compatible with :class:`HTTPPasswordMgr`; refer to section
+ :ref:`http-password-mgr` for information on the interface that must be
+ supported.
+
+
+.. class:: HTTPHandler()
+
+ A class to handle opening of HTTP URLs.
+
+
+.. class:: HTTPSHandler()
+
+ A class to handle opening of HTTPS URLs.
+
+
+.. class:: FileHandler()
+
+ Open local files.
+
+
+.. class:: FTPHandler()
+
+ Open FTP URLs.
+
+
+.. class:: CacheFTPHandler()
+
+ Open FTP URLs, keeping a cache of open FTP connections to minimize delays.
+
+
+.. class:: UnknownHandler()
+
+ A catch-all class to handle unknown URLs.
+
+
+.. class:: HTTPErrorProcessor()
+
+ Process HTTP error responses.
+
+
+.. _request-objects:
+
+Request Objects
+---------------
+
+The following methods describe all of :class:`Request`'s public interface, and
+so all must be overridden in subclasses.
+
+
+.. method:: Request.add_data(data)
+
+ Set the :class:`Request` data to *data*. This is ignored by all handlers except
+ HTTP handlers --- and there it should be a byte string, and will change the
+ request to be ``POST`` rather than ``GET``.
+
+
+.. method:: Request.get_method()
+
+ Return a string indicating the HTTP request method. This is only meaningful for
+ HTTP requests, and currently always returns ``'GET'`` or ``'POST'``.
+
+
+.. method:: Request.has_data()
+
+ Return whether the instance has a non-\ ``None`` data.
+
+
+.. method:: Request.get_data()
+
+ Return the instance's data.
+
+
+.. method:: Request.add_header(key, val)
+
+ Add another header to the request. Headers are currently ignored by all
+ handlers except HTTP handlers, where they are added to the list of headers sent
+ to the server. Note that there cannot be more than one header with the same
+ name, and later calls will overwrite previous calls in case the *key* collides.
+ Currently, this is no loss of HTTP functionality, since all headers which have
+ meaning when used more than once have a (header-specific) way of gaining the
+ same functionality using only one header.
+
+
+.. method:: Request.add_unredirected_header(key, header)
+
+ Add a header that will not be added to a redirected request.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+.. method:: Request.has_header(header)
+
+ Return whether the instance has the named header (checks both regular and
+ unredirected).
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+.. method:: Request.get_full_url()
+
+ Return the URL given in the constructor.
+
+
+.. method:: Request.get_type()
+
+ Return the type of the URL --- also known as the scheme.
+
+
+.. method:: Request.get_host()
+
+ Return the host to which a connection will be made.
+
+
+.. method:: Request.get_selector()
+
+ Return the selector --- the part of the URL that is sent to the server.
+
+
+.. method:: Request.get_header(header_name, default=None)
+
+ Return the value of the given header. If the header is not present, return
+ the default value.
+
+
+.. method:: Request.header_items()
+
+ Return a list of tuples (header_name, header_value) of the Request headers.
+
+
+.. method:: Request.set_proxy(host, type)
+
+ Prepare the request by connecting to a proxy server. The *host* and *type* will
+ replace those of the instance, and the instance's selector will be the original
+ URL given in the constructor.
+
+
+.. method:: Request.get_origin_req_host()
+
+ Return the request-host of the origin transaction, as defined by :rfc:`2965`.
+ See the documentation for the :class:`Request` constructor.
+
+
+.. method:: Request.is_unverifiable()
+
+ Return whether the request is unverifiable, as defined by RFC 2965. See the
+ documentation for the :class:`Request` constructor.
+
+
+.. _opener-director-objects:
+
+OpenerDirector Objects
+----------------------
+
+:class:`OpenerDirector` instances have the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: OpenerDirector.add_handler(handler)
+
+ *handler* should be an instance of :class:`BaseHandler`. The following
+ methods are searched, and added to the possible chains (note that HTTP errors
+ are a special case).
+
+ * :samp:`{protocol}_open` --- signal that the handler knows how to open
+ *protocol* URLs.
+
+ * :samp:`http_error_{type}` --- signal that the handler knows how to handle
+ HTTP errors with HTTP error code *type*.
+
+ * :samp:`{protocol}_error` --- signal that the handler knows how to handle
+ errors from (non-\ ``http``) *protocol*.
+
+ * :samp:`{protocol}_request` --- signal that the handler knows how to
+ pre-process *protocol* requests.
+
+ * :samp:`{protocol}_response` --- signal that the handler knows how to
+ post-process *protocol* responses.
+
+
+.. method:: OpenerDirector.open(url[, data][, timeout])
+
+ Open the given *url* (which can be a request object or a string), optionally
+ passing the given *data*. Arguments, return values and exceptions raised are
+ the same as those of :func:`urlopen` (which simply calls the :meth:`open`
+ method on the currently installed global :class:`OpenerDirector`). The
+ optional *timeout* parameter specifies a timeout in seconds for blocking
+ operations like the connection attempt (if not specified, the global default
+ timeout setting will be used). The timeout feature actually works only for
+ HTTP, HTTPS and FTP connections).
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ *timeout* was added.
+
+
+.. method:: OpenerDirector.error(proto[, arg[, ...]])
+
+ Handle an error of the given protocol. This will call the registered error
+ handlers for the given protocol with the given arguments (which are protocol
+ specific). The HTTP protocol is a special case which uses the HTTP response
+ code to determine the specific error handler; refer to the :meth:`http_error_\*`
+ methods of the handler classes.
+
+ Return values and exceptions raised are the same as those of :func:`urlopen`.
+
+OpenerDirector objects open URLs in three stages:
+
+The order in which these methods are called within each stage is determined by
+sorting the handler instances.
+
+#. Every handler with a method named like :samp:`{protocol}_request` has that
+ method called to pre-process the request.
+
+#. Handlers with a method named like :samp:`{protocol}_open` are called to handle
+ the request. This stage ends when a handler either returns a non-\ :const:`None`
+ value (ie. a response), or raises an exception (usually :exc:`URLError`).
+ Exceptions are allowed to propagate.
+
+ In fact, the above algorithm is first tried for methods named
+ :meth:`default_open`. If all such methods return :const:`None`, the
+ algorithm is repeated for methods named like :samp:`{protocol}_open`. If all
+ such methods return :const:`None`, the algorithm is repeated for methods
+ named :meth:`unknown_open`.
+
+ Note that the implementation of these methods may involve calls of the parent
+ :class:`OpenerDirector` instance's :meth:`~OpenerDirector.open` and
+ :meth:`~OpenerDirector.error` methods.
+
+#. Every handler with a method named like :samp:`{protocol}_response` has that
+ method called to post-process the response.
+
+
+.. _base-handler-objects:
+
+BaseHandler Objects
+-------------------
+
+:class:`BaseHandler` objects provide a couple of methods that are directly
+useful, and others that are meant to be used by derived classes. These are
+intended for direct use:
+
+
+.. method:: BaseHandler.add_parent(director)
+
+ Add a director as parent.
+
+
+.. method:: BaseHandler.close()
+
+ Remove any parents.
+
+The following attributes and methods should only be used by classes derived from
+:class:`BaseHandler`.
+
+.. note::
+
+ The convention has been adopted that subclasses defining
+ :meth:`protocol_request` or :meth:`protocol_response` methods are named
+ :class:`\*Processor`; all others are named :class:`\*Handler`.
+
+
+.. attribute:: BaseHandler.parent
+
+ A valid :class:`OpenerDirector`, which can be used to open using a different
+ protocol, or handle errors.
+
+
+.. method:: BaseHandler.default_open(req)
+
+ This method is *not* defined in :class:`BaseHandler`, but subclasses should
+ define it if they want to catch all URLs.
+
+ This method, if implemented, will be called by the parent
+ :class:`OpenerDirector`. It should return a file-like object as described in
+ the return value of the :meth:`open` of :class:`OpenerDirector`, or ``None``.
+ It should raise :exc:`URLError`, unless a truly exceptional thing happens (for
+ example, :exc:`MemoryError` should not be mapped to :exc:`URLError`).
+
+ This method will be called before any protocol-specific open method.
+
+
+.. method:: BaseHandler.protocol_open(req)
+ :noindex:
+
+ ("protocol" is to be replaced by the protocol name.)
+
+ This method is *not* defined in :class:`BaseHandler`, but subclasses should
+ define it if they want to handle URLs with the given *protocol*.
+
+ This method, if defined, will be called by the parent :class:`OpenerDirector`.
+ Return values should be the same as for :meth:`default_open`.
+
+
+.. method:: BaseHandler.unknown_open(req)
+
+ This method is *not* defined in :class:`BaseHandler`, but subclasses should
+ define it if they want to catch all URLs with no specific registered handler to
+ open it.
+
+ This method, if implemented, will be called by the :attr:`parent`
+ :class:`OpenerDirector`. Return values should be the same as for
+ :meth:`default_open`.
+
+
+.. method:: BaseHandler.http_error_default(req, fp, code, msg, hdrs)
+
+ This method is *not* defined in :class:`BaseHandler`, but subclasses should
+ override it if they intend to provide a catch-all for otherwise unhandled HTTP
+ errors. It will be called automatically by the :class:`OpenerDirector` getting
+ the error, and should not normally be called in other circumstances.
+
+ *req* will be a :class:`Request` object, *fp* will be a file-like object with
+ the HTTP error body, *code* will be the three-digit code of the error, *msg*
+ will be the user-visible explanation of the code and *hdrs* will be a mapping
+ object with the headers of the error.
+
+ Return values and exceptions raised should be the same as those of
+ :func:`urlopen`.
+
+
+.. method:: BaseHandler.http_error_nnn(req, fp, code, msg, hdrs)
+
+ *nnn* should be a three-digit HTTP error code. This method is also not defined
+ in :class:`BaseHandler`, but will be called, if it exists, on an instance of a
+ subclass, when an HTTP error with code *nnn* occurs.
+
+ Subclasses should override this method to handle specific HTTP errors.
+
+ Arguments, return values and exceptions raised should be the same as for
+ :meth:`http_error_default`.
+
+
+.. method:: BaseHandler.protocol_request(req)
+ :noindex:
+
+ ("protocol" is to be replaced by the protocol name.)
+
+ This method is *not* defined in :class:`BaseHandler`, but subclasses should
+ define it if they want to pre-process requests of the given *protocol*.
+
+ This method, if defined, will be called by the parent :class:`OpenerDirector`.
+ *req* will be a :class:`Request` object. The return value should be a
+ :class:`Request` object.
+
+
+.. method:: BaseHandler.protocol_response(req, response)
+ :noindex:
+
+ ("protocol" is to be replaced by the protocol name.)
+
+ This method is *not* defined in :class:`BaseHandler`, but subclasses should
+ define it if they want to post-process responses of the given *protocol*.
+
+ This method, if defined, will be called by the parent :class:`OpenerDirector`.
+ *req* will be a :class:`Request` object. *response* will be an object
+ implementing the same interface as the return value of :func:`urlopen`. The
+ return value should implement the same interface as the return value of
+ :func:`urlopen`.
+
+
+.. _http-redirect-handler:
+
+HTTPRedirectHandler Objects
+---------------------------
+
+.. note::
+
+ Some HTTP redirections require action from this module's client code. If this
+ is the case, :exc:`HTTPError` is raised. See :rfc:`2616` for details of the
+ precise meanings of the various redirection codes.
+
+
+.. method:: HTTPRedirectHandler.redirect_request(req, fp, code, msg, hdrs, newurl)
+
+ Return a :class:`Request` or ``None`` in response to a redirect. This is called
+ by the default implementations of the :meth:`http_error_30\*` methods when a
+ redirection is received from the server. If a redirection should take place,
+ return a new :class:`Request` to allow :meth:`http_error_30\*` to perform the
+ redirect to *newurl*. Otherwise, raise :exc:`HTTPError` if no other handler
+ should try to handle this URL, or return ``None`` if you can't but another
+ handler might.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ The default implementation of this method does not strictly follow :rfc:`2616`,
+ which says that 301 and 302 responses to ``POST`` requests must not be
+ automatically redirected without confirmation by the user. In reality, browsers
+ do allow automatic redirection of these responses, changing the POST to a
+ ``GET``, and the default implementation reproduces this behavior.
+
+
+.. method:: HTTPRedirectHandler.http_error_301(req, fp, code, msg, hdrs)
+
+ Redirect to the ``Location:`` or ``URI:`` URL. This method is called by the
+ parent :class:`OpenerDirector` when getting an HTTP 'moved permanently' response.
+
+
+.. method:: HTTPRedirectHandler.http_error_302(req, fp, code, msg, hdrs)
+
+ The same as :meth:`http_error_301`, but called for the 'found' response.
+
+
+.. method:: HTTPRedirectHandler.http_error_303(req, fp, code, msg, hdrs)
+
+ The same as :meth:`http_error_301`, but called for the 'see other' response.
+
+
+.. method:: HTTPRedirectHandler.http_error_307(req, fp, code, msg, hdrs)
+
+ The same as :meth:`http_error_301`, but called for the 'temporary redirect'
+ response.
+
+
+.. _http-cookie-processor:
+
+HTTPCookieProcessor Objects
+---------------------------
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+:class:`HTTPCookieProcessor` instances have one attribute:
+
+
+.. attribute:: HTTPCookieProcessor.cookiejar
+
+ The :class:`cookielib.CookieJar` in which cookies are stored.
+
+
+.. _proxy-handler:
+
+ProxyHandler Objects
+--------------------
+
+
+.. method:: ProxyHandler.protocol_open(request)
+ :noindex:
+
+ ("protocol" is to be replaced by the protocol name.)
+
+ The :class:`ProxyHandler` will have a method :samp:`{protocol}_open` for every
+ *protocol* which has a proxy in the *proxies* dictionary given in the
+ constructor. The method will modify requests to go through the proxy, by
+ calling ``request.set_proxy()``, and call the next handler in the chain to
+ actually execute the protocol.
+
+
+.. _http-password-mgr:
+
+HTTPPasswordMgr Objects
+-----------------------
+
+These methods are available on :class:`HTTPPasswordMgr` and
+:class:`HTTPPasswordMgrWithDefaultRealm` objects.
+
+
+.. method:: HTTPPasswordMgr.add_password(realm, uri, user, passwd)
+
+ *uri* can be either a single URI, or a sequence of URIs. *realm*, *user* and
+ *passwd* must be strings. This causes ``(user, passwd)`` to be used as
+ authentication tokens when authentication for *realm* and a super-URI of any of
+ the given URIs is given.
+
+
+.. method:: HTTPPasswordMgr.find_user_password(realm, authuri)
+
+ Get user/password for given realm and URI, if any. This method will return
+ ``(None, None)`` if there is no matching user/password.
+
+ For :class:`HTTPPasswordMgrWithDefaultRealm` objects, the realm ``None`` will be
+ searched if the given *realm* has no matching user/password.
+
+
+.. _abstract-basic-auth-handler:
+
+AbstractBasicAuthHandler Objects
+--------------------------------
+
+
+.. method:: AbstractBasicAuthHandler.http_error_auth_reqed(authreq, host, req, headers)
+
+ Handle an authentication request by getting a user/password pair, and re-trying
+ the request. *authreq* should be the name of the header where the information
+ about the realm is included in the request, *host* specifies the URL and path to
+ authenticate for, *req* should be the (failed) :class:`Request` object, and
+ *headers* should be the error headers.
+
+ *host* is either an authority (e.g. ``"python.org"``) or a URL containing an
+ authority component (e.g. ``"http://python.org/"``). In either case, the
+ authority must not contain a userinfo component (so, ``"python.org"`` and
+ ``"python.org:80"`` are fine, ``"joe:[email protected]"`` is not).
+
+
+.. _http-basic-auth-handler:
+
+HTTPBasicAuthHandler Objects
+----------------------------
+
+
+.. method:: HTTPBasicAuthHandler.http_error_401(req, fp, code, msg, hdrs)
+
+ Retry the request with authentication information, if available.
+
+
+.. _proxy-basic-auth-handler:
+
+ProxyBasicAuthHandler Objects
+-----------------------------

+
+.. method:: ProxyBasicAuthHandler.http_error_407(req, fp, code, msg, hdrs)
+
+ Retry the request with authentication information, if available.
+
+
+.. _abstract-digest-auth-handler:
+
+AbstractDigestAuthHandler Objects
+---------------------------------
+
+
+.. method:: AbstractDigestAuthHandler.http_error_auth_reqed(authreq, host, req, headers)
+
+ *authreq* should be the name of the header where the information about the realm
+ is included in the request, *host* should be the host to authenticate to, *req*
+ should be the (failed) :class:`Request` object, and *headers* should be the
+ error headers.
+
+
+.. _http-digest-auth-handler:
+
+HTTPDigestAuthHandler Objects
+-----------------------------
+

+
+
+.. method:: ProxyDigestAuthHandler.http_error_407(req, fp, code, msg, hdrs)
+
+ Retry the request with authentication information, if available.
+
+
+.. _http-handler-objects:
+
+HTTPHandler Objects
+-------------------
+
+
+.. method:: HTTPHandler.http_open(req)
+
+ Send an HTTP request, which can be either GET or POST, depending on
+ ``req.has_data()``.
+
+
+.. _https-handler-objects:
+
+HTTPSHandler Objects
+--------------------
+
+

+
+
+.. _file-handler-objects:
+
+FileHandler Objects
+-------------------
+
+
+.. method:: FileHandler.file_open(req)
+
+ Open the file locally, if there is no host name, or the host name is
+ ``'localhost'``. Change the protocol to ``ftp`` otherwise, and retry opening it
+ using :attr:`parent`.
+
+
+.. _ftp-handler-objects:
+
+FTPHandler Objects
+------------------
+
+
+.. method:: FTPHandler.ftp_open(req)
+
+ Open the FTP file indicated by *req*. The login is always done with empty
+ username and password.
+
+
+.. _cacheftp-handler-objects:
+
+CacheFTPHandler Objects
+-----------------------
+
+:class:`CacheFTPHandler` objects are :class:`FTPHandler` objects with the
+following additional methods:
+
+
+.. method:: CacheFTPHandler.setTimeout(t)
+
+ Set timeout of connections to *t* seconds.
+
+
+.. method:: CacheFTPHandler.setMaxConns(m)

+ Raise a :exc:`URLError` exception.
+
+
+.. _http-error-processor-objects:
+
+HTTPErrorProcessor Objects
+--------------------------
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+
+.. method:: HTTPErrorProcessor.http_response()
+
+ Process HTTP error responses.
+
+ For 200 error codes, the response object is returned immediately.
+
+ For non-200 error codes, this simply passes the job on to the
+ :samp:`{protocol}_error_code` handler methods, via
+ :meth:`OpenerDirector.error`. Eventually,
+ :class:`urllib2.HTTPDefaultErrorHandler` will raise an :exc:`HTTPError` if no
+ other handler handles the error.
+
+.. method:: HTTPErrorProcessor.https_response()
+
+ Process HTTPS error responses.
+
+ The behavior is same as :meth:`http_response`.
+
+
+.. _urllib2-examples:
+
+Examples
+--------
+
+This example gets the python.org main page and displays the first 100 bytes of
+it::
+
+ >>> import urllib2
+ >>> f = urllib2.urlopen('http://www.python.org/')
+ >>> print f.read(100)
+ <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
+ <?xml-stylesheet href="./css/ht2html
+
+Here we are sending a data-stream to the stdin of a CGI and reading the data it
+returns to us. Note that this example will only work when the Python
+installation supports SSL. ::
+
+ >>> import urllib2
+ >>> req = urllib2.Request(url='https://localhost/cgi-bin/test.cgi',
+ ... data='This data is passed to stdin of the CGI')
+ >>> f = urllib2.urlopen(req)
+ >>> print f.read()
+ Got Data: "This data is passed to stdin of the CGI"
+
+The code for the sample CGI used in the above example is::
+
+ #!/usr/bin/env python
+ import sys
+ data = sys.stdin.read()
+ print 'Content-type: text-plain\n\nGot Data: "%s"' % data
+
+Use of Basic HTTP Authentication::
+
+ import urllib2
+ # Create an OpenerDirector with support for Basic HTTP Authentication...
+ auth_handler = urllib2.HTTPBasicAuthHandler()
+ auth_handler.add_password(realm='PDQ Application',
+ uri='https://mahler:8092/site-updates.py',
+ user='klem',
+ passwd='kadidd!ehopper')
+ opener = urllib2.build_opener(auth_handler)
+ # ...and install it globally so it can be used with urlopen.
+ urllib2.install_opener(opener)
+ urllib2.urlopen('http://www.example.com/login.html')
+
+:func:`build_opener` provides many handlers by default, including a
+:class:`ProxyHandler`. By default, :class:`ProxyHandler` uses the environment
+variables named ``<scheme>_proxy``, where ``<scheme>`` is the URL scheme
+involved. For example, the :envvar:`http_proxy` environment variable is read to
+obtain the HTTP proxy's URL.
+
+This example replaces the default :class:`ProxyHandler` with one that uses
+programmatically-supplied proxy URLs, and adds proxy authorization support with
+:class:`ProxyBasicAuthHandler`. ::
+
+ proxy_handler = urllib2.ProxyHandler({'http': 'http://www.example.com:3128/'})
+ proxy_auth_handler = urllib2.ProxyBasicAuthHandler()
+ proxy_auth_handler.add_password('realm', 'host', 'username', 'password')
+
+ opener = urllib2.build_opener(proxy_handler, proxy_auth_handler)
+ # This time, rather than install the OpenerDirector, we use it directly:
+ opener.open('http://www.example.com/login.html')
+
+Adding HTTP headers:
+
+Use the *headers* argument to the :class:`Request` constructor, or::
+
+ import urllib2
+ req = urllib2.Request('http://www.example.com/')
+ req.add_header('Referer', 'http://www.python.org/')
+ r = urllib2.urlopen(req)
+
+:class:`OpenerDirector` automatically adds a :mailheader:`User-Agent` header to
+every :class:`Request`. To change this::
+
+ import urllib2
+ opener = urllib2.build_opener()
+ opener.addheaders = [('User-agent', 'Mozilla/5.0')]
+ opener.open('http://www.example.com/')
+
+Also, remember that a few standard headers (:mailheader:`Content-Length`,
+:mailheader:`Content-Type` and :mailheader:`Host`) are added when the
+:class:`Request` is passed to :func:`urlopen` (or :meth:`OpenerDirector.open`).

+:mod:`urlparse` --- Parse URLs into components
+==============================================
+
+.. module:: urlparse
+ :synopsis: Parse URLs into or assemble them from components.
+
+
+.. index::
+ single: WWW
+ single: World Wide Web
+ single: URL
+ pair: URL; parsing
+ pair: relative; URL
+
+.. note::
+ The :mod:`urlparse` module is renamed to :mod:`urllib.parse` in Python 3.
+ The :term:`2to3` tool will automatically adapt imports when converting
+ your sources to Python 3.
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/urlparse.py`
+
+--------------
+
+This module defines a standard interface to break Uniform Resource Locator (URL)
+strings up in components (addressing scheme, network location, path etc.), to
+combine the components back into a URL string, and to convert a "relative URL"
+to an absolute URL given a "base URL."
+
+The module has been designed to match the Internet RFC on Relative Uniform
+Resource Locators. It supports the following URL schemes: ``file``, ``ftp``,
+``gopher``, ``hdl``, ``http``, ``https``, ``imap``, ``mailto``, ``mms``,
+``news``, ``nntp``, ``prospero``, ``rsync``, ``rtsp``, ``rtspu``, ``sftp``,
+``shttp``, ``sip``, ``sips``, ``snews``, ``svn``, ``svn+ssh``, ``telnet``,
+``wais``.
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.5
+ Support for the ``sftp`` and ``sips`` schemes.
+
+The :mod:`urlparse` module defines the following functions:
+
+
+.. function:: urlparse(urlstring[, scheme[, allow_fragments]])
+
+ Parse a URL into six components, returning a 6-tuple. This corresponds to the
+ general structure of a URL: ``scheme://netloc/path;parameters?query#fragment``.
+ Each tuple item is a string, possibly empty. The components are not broken up in
+ smaller parts (for example, the network location is a single string), and %
+ escapes are not expanded. The delimiters as shown above are not part of the
+ result, except for a leading slash in the *path* component, which is retained if
+ present. For example:
+
+ >>> from urlparse import urlparse
+ >>> o = urlparse('http://www.cwi.nl:80/%7Eguido/Python.html')
+ >>> o # doctest: +NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE
+ ParseResult(scheme='http', netloc='www.cwi.nl:80', path='/%7Eguido/Python.html',
+ params='', query='', fragment='')
+ >>> o.scheme
+ 'http'
+ >>> o.port
+ 80
+ >>> o.geturl()
+ 'http://www.cwi.nl:80/%7Eguido/Python.html'
+
+
+ Following the syntax specifications in :rfc:`1808`, urlparse recognizes
+ a netloc only if it is properly introduced by '//'. Otherwise the
+ input is presumed to be a relative URL and thus to start with
+ a path component.
+
+ >>> from urlparse import urlparse
+ >>> urlparse('//www.cwi.nl:80/%7Eguido/Python.html')
+ ParseResult(scheme='', netloc='www.cwi.nl:80', path='/%7Eguido/Python.html',
+ params='', query='', fragment='')
+ >>> urlparse('www.cwi.nl/%7Eguido/Python.html')
+ ParseResult(scheme='', netloc='', path='www.cwi.nl:80/%7Eguido/Python.html',
+ params='', query='', fragment='')
+ >>> urlparse('help/Python.html')
+ ParseResult(scheme='', netloc='', path='help/Python.html', params='',
+ query='', fragment='')
+
+ If the *scheme* argument is specified, it gives the default addressing
+ scheme, to be used only if the URL does not specify one. The default value for
+ this argument is the empty string.
+
+ If the *allow_fragments* argument is false, fragment identifiers are not
+ allowed, even if the URL's addressing scheme normally does support them. The
+ default value for this argument is :const:`True`.
+
+ The return value is actually an instance of a subclass of :class:`tuple`. This
+ class has the following additional read-only convenience attributes:
+
+ +------------------+-------+--------------------------+----------------------+
+ | Attribute | Index | Value | Value if not present |

+ object.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ Added attributes to return value.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ Added IPv6 URL parsing capabilities.
+
+
+.. function:: parse_qs(qs[, keep_blank_values[, strict_parsing]])
+
+ Parse a query string given as a string argument (data of type
+ :mimetype:`application/x-www-form-urlencoded`). Data are returned as a
+ dictionary. The dictionary keys are the unique query variable names and the
+ values are lists of values for each name.
+
+ The optional argument *keep_blank_values* is a flag indicating whether blank
+ values in percent-encoded queries should be treated as blank strings. A true value
+ indicates that blanks should be retained as blank strings. The default false
+ value indicates that blank values are to be ignored and treated as if they were
+ not included.
+
+ The optional argument *strict_parsing* is a flag indicating what to do with
+ parsing errors. If false (the default), errors are silently ignored. If true,
+ errors raise a :exc:`ValueError` exception.
+
+ Use the :func:`urllib.urlencode` function to convert such dictionaries into
+ query strings.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+ Copied from the :mod:`cgi` module.
+
+
+.. function:: parse_qsl(qs[, keep_blank_values[, strict_parsing]])
+
+ Parse a query string given as a string argument (data of type
+ :mimetype:`application/x-www-form-urlencoded`). Data are returned as a list of
+ name, value pairs.
+
+ The optional argument *keep_blank_values* is a flag indicating whether blank
+ values in percent-encoded queries should be treated as blank strings. A true value
+ indicates that blanks should be retained as blank strings. The default false
+ value indicates that blank values are to be ignored and treated as if they were
+ not included.
+
+ The optional argument *strict_parsing* is a flag indicating what to do with
+ parsing errors. If false (the default), errors are silently ignored. If true,
+ errors raise a :exc:`ValueError` exception.
+
+ Use the :func:`urllib.urlencode` function to convert such lists of pairs into
+ query strings.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+ Copied from the :mod:`cgi` module.
+
+
+.. function:: urlunparse(parts)
+
+ Construct a URL from a tuple as returned by ``urlparse()``. The *parts* argument
+ can be any six-item iterable. This may result in a slightly different, but
+ equivalent URL, if the URL that was parsed originally had unnecessary delimiters
+ (for example, a ? with an empty query; the RFC states that these are
+ equivalent).
+
+
+.. function:: urlsplit(urlstring[, scheme[, allow_fragments]])
+
+ This is similar to :func:`urlparse`, but does not split the params from the URL.
+ This should generally be used instead of :func:`urlparse` if the more recent URL
+ syntax allowing parameters to be applied to each segment of the *path* portion
+ of the URL (see :rfc:`2396`) is wanted. A separate function is needed to
+ separate the path segments and parameters. This function returns a 5-tuple:
+ (addressing scheme, network location, path, query, fragment identifier).
+
+ The return value is actually an instance of a subclass of :class:`tuple`. This
+ class has the following additional read-only convenience attributes:
+

+ See section :ref:`urlparse-result-object` for more information on the result
+ object.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ Added attributes to return value.
+
+
+.. function:: urlunsplit(parts)
+
+ Combine the elements of a tuple as returned by :func:`urlsplit` into a complete
+ URL as a string. The *parts* argument can be any five-item iterable. This may
+ result in a slightly different, but equivalent URL, if the URL that was parsed
+ originally had unnecessary delimiters (for example, a ? with an empty query; the
+ RFC states that these are equivalent).
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+
+.. function:: urljoin(base, url[, allow_fragments])
+
+ Construct a full ("absolute") URL by combining a "base URL" (*base*) with
+ another URL (*url*). Informally, this uses components of the base URL, in
+ particular the addressing scheme, the network location and (part of) the path,
+ to provide missing components in the relative URL. For example:
+
+ >>> from urlparse import urljoin
+ >>> urljoin('http://www.cwi.nl/%7Eguido/Python.html', 'FAQ.html')
+ 'http://www.cwi.nl/%7Eguido/FAQ.html'
+
+ The *allow_fragments* argument has the same meaning and default as for
+ :func:`urlparse`.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ If *url* is an absolute URL (that is, starting with ``//`` or ``scheme://``),
+ the *url*'s host name and/or scheme will be present in the result. For example:
+
+ .. doctest::
+
+ >>> urljoin('http://www.cwi.nl/%7Eguido/Python.html',
+ ... '//www.python.org/%7Eguido')
+ 'http://www.python.org/%7Eguido'
+
+ If you do not want that behavior, preprocess the *url* with :func:`urlsplit` and
+ :func:`urlunsplit`, removing possible *scheme* and *netloc* parts.
+
+
+.. function:: urldefrag(url)
+
+ If *url* contains a fragment identifier, returns a modified version of *url*
+ with no fragment identifier, and the fragment identifier as a separate string.
+ If there is no fragment identifier in *url*, returns *url* unmodified and an
+ empty string.
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ :rfc:`3986` - Uniform Resource Identifiers
+ This is the current standard (STD66). Any changes to urlparse module
+ should conform to this. Certain deviations could be observed, which are
+ mostly due backward compatiblity purposes and for certain de-facto
+ parsing requirements as commonly observed in major browsers.
+
+ :rfc:`2732` - Format for Literal IPv6 Addresses in URL's.
+ This specifies the parsing requirements of IPv6 URLs.
+
+ :rfc:`2396` - Uniform Resource Identifiers (URI): Generic Syntax
+ Document describing the generic syntactic requirements for both Uniform Resource
+ Names (URNs) and Uniform Resource Locators (URLs).
+
+ :rfc:`2368` - The mailto URL scheme.
+ Parsing requirements for mailto url schemes.
+
+ :rfc:`1808` - Relative Uniform Resource Locators
+ This Request For Comments includes the rules for joining an absolute and a
+ relative URL, including a fair number of "Abnormal Examples" which govern the
+ treatment of border cases.
+
+ :rfc:`1738` - Uniform Resource Locators (URL)
+ This specifies the formal syntax and semantics of absolute URLs.

+
+Results of :func:`urlparse` and :func:`urlsplit`
+------------------------------------------------
+
+The result objects from the :func:`urlparse` and :func:`urlsplit` functions are
+subclasses of the :class:`tuple` type. These subclasses add the attributes
+described in those functions, as well as provide an additional method:
+
+
+.. method:: ParseResult.geturl()
+
+ Return the re-combined version of the original URL as a string. This may differ
+ from the original URL in that the scheme will always be normalized to lower case
+ and empty components may be dropped. Specifically, empty parameters, queries,
+ and fragment identifiers will be removed.
+
+ The result of this method is a fixpoint if passed back through the original
+ parsing function:
+
+ >>> import urlparse
+ >>> url = 'HTTP://www.Python.org/doc/#'
+
+ >>> r1 = urlparse.urlsplit(url)
+ >>> r1.geturl()
+ 'http://www.Python.org/doc/'
+
+ >>> r2 = urlparse.urlsplit(r1.geturl())
+ >>> r2.geturl()
+ 'http://www.Python.org/doc/'
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+The following classes provide the implementations of the parse results:
+
+
+.. class:: BaseResult
+
+ Base class for the concrete result classes. This provides most of the attribute
+ definitions. It does not provide a :meth:`geturl` method. It is derived from
+ :class:`tuple`, but does not override the :meth:`__init__` or :meth:`__new__`
+ methods.
+
+
+.. class:: ParseResult(scheme, netloc, path, params, query, fragment)
+
+ Concrete class for :func:`urlparse` results. The :meth:`__new__` method is
+ overridden to support checking that the right number of arguments are passed.
+
+
+.. class:: SplitResult(scheme, netloc, path, query, fragment)
+
+ Concrete class for :func:`urlsplit` results. The :meth:`__new__` method is
+ overridden to support checking that the right number of arguments are passed.

+:mod:`user` --- User-specific configuration hook
+================================================
+
+.. module:: user
+ :synopsis: A standard way to reference user-specific modules.
+ :deprecated:
+
+.. deprecated:: 2.6
+ The :mod:`user` module has been removed in Python 3.
+
+.. index::
+ pair: .pythonrc.py; file
+ triple: user; configuration; file
+
+As a policy, Python doesn't run user-specified code on startup of Python
+programs. (Only interactive sessions execute the script specified in the
+:envvar:`PYTHONSTARTUP` environment variable if it exists).
+
+However, some programs or sites may find it convenient to allow users to have a
+standard customization file, which gets run when a program requests it. This
+module implements such a mechanism. A program that wishes to use the mechanism
+must execute the statement ::
+
+ import user
+
+.. index:: builtin: execfile
+
+The :mod:`user` module looks for a file :file:`.pythonrc.py` in the user's home
+directory and if it can be opened, executes it (using :func:`execfile`) in its
+own (the module :mod:`user`'s) global namespace. Errors during this phase are
+not caught; that's up to the program that imports the :mod:`user` module, if it
+wishes. The home directory is assumed to be named by the :envvar:`HOME`
+environment variable; if this is not set, the current directory is used.
+
+The user's :file:`.pythonrc.py` could conceivably test for ``sys.version`` if it
+wishes to do different things depending on the Python version.
+
+A warning to users: be very conservative in what you place in your
+:file:`.pythonrc.py` file. Since you don't know which programs will use it,
+changing the behavior of standard modules or functions is generally not a good
+idea.
+
+A suggestion for programmers who wish to use this mechanism: a simple way to let
+users specify options for your package is to have them define variables in their
+:file:`.pythonrc.py` file that you test in your module. For example, a module
+:mod:`spam` that has a verbosity level can look for a variable
+``user.spam_verbose``, as follows::
+
+ import user
+
+ verbose = bool(getattr(user, "spam_verbose", 0))
+
+(The three-argument form of :func:`getattr` is used in case the user has not
+defined ``spam_verbose`` in their :file:`.pythonrc.py` file.)
+
+Programs with extensive customization needs are better off reading a
+program-specific customization file.
+
+Programs with security or privacy concerns should *not* import this module; a
+user can easily break into a program by placing arbitrary code in the
+:file:`.pythonrc.py` file.
+
+Modules for general use should *not* import this module; it may interfere with
+the operation of the importing program.

+:mod:`UserDict` --- Class wrapper for dictionary objects
+========================================================
+
+.. module:: UserDict
+ :synopsis: Class wrapper for dictionary objects.
+
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/UserDict.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The module defines a mixin, :class:`DictMixin`, defining all dictionary methods
+for classes that already have a minimum mapping interface. This greatly
+simplifies writing classes that need to be substitutable for dictionaries (such
+as the shelve module).
+
+This module also defines a class, :class:`UserDict`, that acts as a wrapper
+around dictionary objects. The need for this class has been largely supplanted
+by the ability to subclass directly from :class:`dict` (a feature that became
+available starting with Python version 2.2). Prior to the introduction of
+:class:`dict`, the :class:`UserDict` class was used to create dictionary-like
+sub-classes that obtained new behaviors by overriding existing methods or adding
+new ones.
+
+The :mod:`UserDict` module defines the :class:`UserDict` class and
+:class:`DictMixin`:
+
+
+.. class:: UserDict([initialdata])
+
+ Class that simulates a dictionary. The instance's contents are kept in a
+ regular dictionary, which is accessible via the :attr:`data` attribute of
+ :class:`UserDict` instances. If *initialdata* is provided, :attr:`data` is
+ initialized with its contents; note that a reference to *initialdata* will not
+ be kept, allowing it be used for other purposes.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ For backward compatibility, instances of :class:`UserDict` are not iterable.
+
+
+.. class:: IterableUserDict([initialdata])
+
+ Subclass of :class:`UserDict` that supports direct iteration (e.g. ``for key in
+ myDict``).
+
+In addition to supporting the methods and operations of mappings (see section
+:ref:`typesmapping`), :class:`UserDict` and :class:`IterableUserDict` instances
+provide the following attribute:
+
+
+.. attribute:: IterableUserDict.data
+
+ A real dictionary used to store the contents of the :class:`UserDict` class.
+
+
+.. class:: DictMixin()
+
+ Mixin defining all dictionary methods for classes that already have a minimum
+ dictionary interface including :meth:`__getitem__`, :meth:`__setitem__`,
+ :meth:`__delitem__`, and :meth:`keys`.
+
+ This mixin should be used as a superclass. Adding each of the above methods
+ adds progressively more functionality. For instance, defining all but
+ :meth:`__delitem__` will preclude only :meth:`pop` and :meth:`popitem` from the
+ full interface.
+
+ In addition to the four base methods, progressively more efficiency comes with
+ defining :meth:`__contains__`, :meth:`__iter__`, and :meth:`iteritems`.
+
+ Since the mixin has no knowledge of the subclass constructor, it does not define
+ :meth:`__init__` or :meth:`copy`.
+
+ Starting with Python version 2.6, it is recommended to use
+ :class:`collections.MutableMapping` instead of :class:`DictMixin`.
+
+:mod:`UserList` --- Class wrapper for list objects
+==================================================
+
+.. module:: UserList
+ :synopsis: Class wrapper for list objects.
+
+
+.. note::
+
+ When Python 2.2 was released, many of the use cases for this class were
+ subsumed by the ability to subclass :class:`list` directly. However, a
+ handful of use cases remain.
+
+ This module provides a list-interface around an underlying data store. By
+ default, that data store is a :class:`list`; however, it can be used to wrap
+ a list-like interface around other objects (such as persistent storage).
+
+ In addition, this class can be mixed-in with built-in classes using multiple
+ inheritance. This can sometimes be useful. For example, you can inherit
+ from :class:`UserList` and :class:`str` at the same time. That would not be
+ possible with both a real :class:`list` and a real :class:`str`.
+
+This module defines a class that acts as a wrapper around list objects. It is a
+useful base class for your own list-like classes, which can inherit from them
+and override existing methods or add new ones. In this way one can add new
+behaviors to lists.
+
+The :mod:`UserList` module defines the :class:`UserList` class:
+
+
+.. class:: UserList([list])
+
+ Class that simulates a list. The instance's contents are kept in a regular
+ list, which is accessible via the :attr:`data` attribute of :class:`UserList`
+ instances. The instance's contents are initially set to a copy of *list*,
+ defaulting to the empty list ``[]``. *list* can be any iterable, e.g. a
+ real Python list or a :class:`UserList` object.
+
+ .. note::
+ The :class:`UserList` class has been moved to the :mod:`collections`
+ module in Python 3. The :term:`2to3` tool will automatically adapt
+ imports when converting your sources to Python 3.
+
+
+In addition to supporting the methods and operations of mutable sequences (see
+section :ref:`typesseq`), :class:`UserList` instances provide the following
+attribute:
+
+
+.. attribute:: UserList.data
+
+ A real Python list object used to store the contents of the :class:`UserList`
+ class.
+
+**Subclassing requirements:** Subclasses of :class:`UserList` are expect to
+offer a constructor which can be called with either no arguments or one
+argument. List operations which return a new sequence attempt to create an
+instance of the actual implementation class. To do so, it assumes that the
+constructor can be called with a single parameter, which is a sequence object
+used as a data source.
+
+If a derived class does not wish to comply with this requirement, all of the
+special methods supported by this class will need to be overridden; please
+consult the sources for information about the methods which need to be provided
+in that case.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.0
+ Python versions 1.5.2 and 1.6 also required that the constructor be callable
+ with no parameters, and offer a mutable :attr:`data` attribute. Earlier
+ versions of Python did not attempt to create instances of the derived class.
+
+
+:mod:`UserString` --- Class wrapper for string objects
+======================================================
+
+.. module:: UserString
+ :synopsis: Class wrapper for string objects.
+.. moduleauthor:: Peter Funk <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Peter Funk <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. note::
+
+ This :class:`UserString` class from this module is available for backward
+ compatibility only. If you are writing code that does not need to work with
+ versions of Python earlier than Python 2.2, please consider subclassing directly
+ from the built-in :class:`str` type instead of using :class:`UserString` (there
+ is no built-in equivalent to :class:`MutableString`).
+
+This module defines a class that acts as a wrapper around string objects. It is
+a useful base class for your own string-like classes, which can inherit from
+them and override existing methods or add new ones. In this way one can add new
+behaviors to strings.
+
+It should be noted that these classes are highly inefficient compared to real
+string or Unicode objects; this is especially the case for
+:class:`MutableString`.
+
+The :mod:`UserString` module defines the following classes:
+
+
+.. class:: UserString([sequence])
+
+ Class that simulates a string or a Unicode string object. The instance's
+ content is kept in a regular string or Unicode string object, which is
+ accessible via the :attr:`data` attribute of :class:`UserString` instances. The
+ instance's contents are initially set to a copy of *sequence*. *sequence* can
+ be either a regular Python string or Unicode string, an instance of
+ :class:`UserString` (or a subclass) or an arbitrary sequence which can be
+ converted into a string using the built-in :func:`str` function.
+
+ .. note::
+ The :class:`UserString` class has been moved to the :mod:`collections`
+ module in Python 3. The :term:`2to3` tool will automatically adapt
+ imports when converting your sources to Python 3.
+
+
+
+.. class:: MutableString([sequence])
+
+ This class is derived from the :class:`UserString` above and redefines strings
+ to be *mutable*. Mutable strings can't be used as dictionary keys, because
+ dictionaries require *immutable* objects as keys. The main intention of this
+ class is to serve as an educational example for inheritance and necessity to
+ remove (override) the :meth:`__hash__` method in order to trap attempts to use a
+ mutable object as dictionary key, which would be otherwise very error prone and
+ hard to track down.
+
+ .. deprecated:: 2.6
+ The :class:`MutableString` class has been removed in Python 3.
+
+In addition to supporting the methods and operations of string and Unicode
+objects (see section :ref:`string-methods`), :class:`UserString` instances
+provide the following attribute:
+
+
+.. attribute:: MutableString.data
+
+ A real Python string or Unicode object used to store the content of the
+ :class:`UserString` class.

+==============================================

+.. module:: uu

+.. moduleauthor:: Lance Ellinghouse
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/uu.py`
+
+--------------
+
+This module encodes and decodes files in uuencode format, allowing arbitrary
+binary data to be transferred over ASCII-only connections. Wherever a file
+argument is expected, the methods accept a file-like object. For backwards
+compatibility, a string containing a pathname is also accepted, and the
+corresponding file will be opened for reading and writing; the pathname ``'-'``
+is understood to mean the standard input or output. However, this interface is

+:mod:`uuid` --- UUID objects according to RFC 4122
+==================================================
+
+.. module:: uuid
+ :synopsis: UUID objects (universally unique identifiers) according to RFC 4122
+.. moduleauthor:: Ka-Ping Yee <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: George Yoshida <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+This module provides immutable :class:`UUID` objects (the :class:`UUID` class)
+and the functions :func:`uuid1`, :func:`uuid3`, :func:`uuid4`, :func:`uuid5` for
+generating version 1, 3, 4, and 5 UUIDs as specified in :rfc:`4122`.
+
+If all you want is a unique ID, you should probably call :func:`uuid1` or
+:func:`uuid4`. Note that :func:`uuid1` may compromise privacy since it creates
+a UUID containing the computer's network address. :func:`uuid4` creates a
+random UUID.
+
+
+.. class:: UUID([hex[, bytes[, bytes_le[, fields[, int[, version]]]]]])
+
+ Create a UUID from either a string of 32 hexadecimal digits, a string of 16
+ bytes as the *bytes* argument, a string of 16 bytes in little-endian order as
+ the *bytes_le* argument, a tuple of six integers (32-bit *time_low*, 16-bit
+ *time_mid*, 16-bit *time_hi_version*, 8-bit *clock_seq_hi_variant*, 8-bit
+ *clock_seq_low*, 48-bit *node*) as the *fields* argument, or a single 128-bit
+ integer as the *int* argument. When a string of hex digits is given, curly
+ braces, hyphens, and a URN prefix are all optional. For example, these
+ expressions all yield the same UUID::
+
+ UUID('{12345678-1234-5678-1234-567812345678}')
+ UUID('12345678123456781234567812345678')

+ UUID(int=0x12345678123456781234567812345678)
+
+ Exactly one of *hex*, *bytes*, *bytes_le*, *fields*, or *int* must be given.
+ The *version* argument is optional; if given, the resulting UUID will have its
+ variant and version number set according to RFC 4122, overriding bits in the
+ given *hex*, *bytes*, *bytes_le*, *fields*, or *int*.
+
+:class:`UUID` instances have these read-only attributes:
+
+
+.. attribute:: UUID.bytes
+
+ The UUID as a 16-byte string (containing the six integer fields in big-endian
+ byte order).
+
+
+.. attribute:: UUID.bytes_le
+
+ The UUID as a 16-byte string (with *time_low*, *time_mid*, and *time_hi_version*
+ in little-endian byte order).
+
+
+.. attribute:: UUID.fields
+
+ A tuple of the six integer fields of the UUID, which are also available as six
+ individual attributes and two derived attributes:
+
+ +------------------------------+-------------------------------+
+ | Field | Meaning |
+ +==============================+===============================+
+ | :attr:`time_low` | the first 32 bits of the UUID |

+ | :attr:`time` | the 60-bit timestamp |
+ +------------------------------+-------------------------------+
+ | :attr:`clock_seq` | the 14-bit sequence number |
+ +------------------------------+-------------------------------+
+
+
+.. attribute:: UUID.hex
+
+ The UUID as a 32-character hexadecimal string.
+
+
+.. attribute:: UUID.int
+
+ The UUID as a 128-bit integer.
+
+
+.. attribute:: UUID.urn
+
+ The UUID as a URN as specified in RFC 4122.
+
+
+.. attribute:: UUID.variant
+
+ The UUID variant, which determines the internal layout of the UUID. This will be
+ one of the integer constants :const:`RESERVED_NCS`, :const:`RFC_4122`,
+ :const:`RESERVED_MICROSOFT`, or :const:`RESERVED_FUTURE`.
+
+
+.. attribute:: UUID.version
+
+ The UUID version number (1 through 5, meaningful only when the variant is
+ :const:`RFC_4122`).
+
+The :mod:`uuid` module defines the following functions:
+
+
+.. function:: getnode()
+
+ Get the hardware address as a 48-bit positive integer. The first time this
+ runs, it may launch a separate program, which could be quite slow. If all
+ attempts to obtain the hardware address fail, we choose a random 48-bit number
+ with its eighth bit set to 1 as recommended in RFC 4122. "Hardware address"
+ means the MAC address of a network interface, and on a machine with multiple
+ network interfaces the MAC address of any one of them may be returned.
+
+.. index:: single: getnode
+
+
+.. function:: uuid1([node[, clock_seq]])
+
+ Generate a UUID from a host ID, sequence number, and the current time. If *node*
+ is not given, :func:`getnode` is used to obtain the hardware address. If
+ *clock_seq* is given, it is used as the sequence number; otherwise a random

+
+.. index:: single: uuid5
+
+The :mod:`uuid` module defines the following namespace identifiers for use with
+:func:`uuid3` or :func:`uuid5`.
+
+
+.. data:: NAMESPACE_DNS
+
+ When this namespace is specified, the *name* string is a fully-qualified domain
+ name.

+.. data:: NAMESPACE_URL
+
+ When this namespace is specified, the *name* string is a URL.
+
+
+.. data:: NAMESPACE_OID
+
+ When this namespace is specified, the *name* string is an ISO OID.
+
+
+.. data:: NAMESPACE_X500
+
+ When this namespace is specified, the *name* string is an X.500 DN in DER or a

+:mod:`warnings` --- Warning control
+===================================
+
+.. index:: single: warnings
+
+.. module:: warnings
+ :synopsis: Issue warning messages and control their disposition.
+
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.1
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/warnings.py`
+
+--------------
+
+Warning messages are typically issued in situations where it is useful to alert
+the user of some condition in a program, where that condition (normally) doesn't
+warrant raising an exception and terminating the program. For example, one
+might want to issue a warning when a program uses an obsolete module.
+
+Python programmers issue warnings by calling the :func:`warn` function defined
+in this module. (C programmers use :c:func:`PyErr_WarnEx`; see
+:ref:`exceptionhandling` for details).
+
+Warning messages are normally written to ``sys.stderr``, but their disposition
+can be changed flexibly, from ignoring all warnings to turning them into
+exceptions. The disposition of warnings can vary based on the warning category
+(see below), the text of the warning message, and the source location where it
+is issued. Repetitions of a particular warning for the same source location are
+typically suppressed.
+
+There are two stages in warning control: first, each time a warning is issued, a
+determination is made whether a message should be issued or not; next, if a
+message is to be issued, it is formatted and printed using a user-settable hook.
+
+The determination whether to issue a warning message is controlled by the
+warning filter, which is a sequence of matching rules and actions. Rules can be
+added to the filter by calling :func:`filterwarnings` and reset to its default
+state by calling :func:`resetwarnings`.
+
+The printing of warning messages is done by calling :func:`showwarning`, which
+may be overridden; the default implementation of this function formats the
+message by calling :func:`formatwarning`, which is also available for use by
+custom implementations.
+
+.. seealso::
+ :func:`logging.captureWarnings` allows you to handle all warnings with
+ the standard logging infrastructure.
+
+
+.. _warning-categories:
+
+Warning Categories
+------------------
+
+There are a number of built-in exceptions that represent warning categories.
+This categorization is useful to be able to filter out groups of warnings. The
+following warnings category classes are currently defined:

+| :exc:`UserWarning` | The default category for :func:`warn`. |
++----------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| :exc:`DeprecationWarning` | Base category for warnings about deprecated |
+| | features (ignored by default). |
++----------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| :exc:`SyntaxWarning` | Base category for warnings about dubious |
+| | syntactic features. |
++----------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| :exc:`RuntimeWarning` | Base category for warnings about dubious |
+| | runtime features. |
++----------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| :exc:`FutureWarning` | Base category for warnings about constructs |
+| | that will change semantically in the future. |
++----------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| :exc:`PendingDeprecationWarning` | Base category for warnings about features |
+| | that will be deprecated in the future |
+| | (ignored by default). |
++----------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| :exc:`ImportWarning` | Base category for warnings triggered during |
+| | the process of importing a module (ignored by |
+| | default). |
++----------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
+| :exc:`UnicodeWarning` | Base category for warnings related to |
+| | Unicode. |
++----------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
+
+While these are technically built-in exceptions, they are documented here,
+because conceptually they belong to the warnings mechanism.
+
+User code can define additional warning categories by subclassing one of the
+standard warning categories. A warning category must always be a subclass of
+the :exc:`Warning` class.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ :exc:`DeprecationWarning` is ignored by default.
+
+
+.. _warning-filter:
+
+The Warnings Filter
+-------------------
+
+The warnings filter controls whether warnings are ignored, displayed, or turned
+into errors (raising an exception).
+
+Conceptually, the warnings filter maintains an ordered list of filter
+specifications; any specific warning is matched against each filter
+specification in the list in turn until a match is found; the match determines
+the disposition of the match. Each entry is a tuple of the form (*action*,
+*message*, *category*, *module*, *lineno*), where:
+
+* *action* is one of the following strings:
+
+ +---------------+----------------------------------------------+
+ | Value | Disposition |
+ +===============+==============================================+
+ | ``"error"`` | turn matching warnings into exceptions |
+ +---------------+----------------------------------------------+
+ | ``"ignore"`` | never print matching warnings |
+ +---------------+----------------------------------------------+
+ | ``"always"`` | always print matching warnings |
+ +---------------+----------------------------------------------+
+ | ``"default"`` | print the first occurrence of matching |
+ | | warnings for each location where the warning |
+ | | is issued |
+ +---------------+----------------------------------------------+
+ | ``"module"`` | print the first occurrence of matching |
+ | | warnings for each module where the warning |
+ | | is issued |
+ +---------------+----------------------------------------------+
+ | ``"once"`` | print only the first occurrence of matching |
+ | | warnings, regardless of location |
+ +---------------+----------------------------------------------+
+
+* *message* is a string containing a regular expression that the warning message
+ must match (the match is compiled to always be case-insensitive).
+
+* *category* is a class (a subclass of :exc:`Warning`) of which the warning
+ category must be a subclass in order to match.
+
+* *module* is a string containing a regular expression that the module name must
+ match (the match is compiled to be case-sensitive).
+
+* *lineno* is an integer that the line number where the warning occurred must
+ match, or ``0`` to match all line numbers.
+
+Since the :exc:`Warning` class is derived from the built-in :exc:`Exception`
+class, to turn a warning into an error we simply raise ``category(message)``.
+
+The warnings filter is initialized by :option:`-W` options passed to the Python
+interpreter command line. The interpreter saves the arguments for all
+:option:`-W` options without interpretation in ``sys.warnoptions``; the
+:mod:`warnings` module parses these when it is first imported (invalid options
+are ignored, after printing a message to ``sys.stderr``).
+
+
+Default Warning Filters
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+By default, Python installs several warning filters, which can be overridden by
+the command-line options passed to :option:`-W` and calls to
+:func:`filterwarnings`.
+
+* :exc:`DeprecationWarning` and :exc:`PendingDeprecationWarning`, and
+ :exc:`ImportWarning` are ignored.
+
+* :exc:`BytesWarning` is ignored unless the :option:`-b` option is given once or
+ twice; in this case this warning is either printed (``-b``) or turned into an
+ exception (``-bb``).
+
+
+.. _warning-suppress:
+
+Temporarily Suppressing Warnings
+--------------------------------
+
+If you are using code that you know will raise a warning, such as a deprecated
+function, but do not want to see the warning, then it is possible to suppress
+the warning using the :class:`catch_warnings` context manager::
+
+ import warnings
+
+ def fxn():
+ warnings.warn("deprecated", DeprecationWarning)
+
+ with warnings.catch_warnings():
+ warnings.simplefilter("ignore")
+ fxn()
+
+While within the context manager all warnings will simply be ignored. This
+allows you to use known-deprecated code without having to see the warning while
+not suppressing the warning for other code that might not be aware of its use
+of deprecated code. Note: this can only be guaranteed in a single-threaded
+application. If two or more threads use the :class:`catch_warnings` context
+manager at the same time, the behavior is undefined.
+
+
+
+.. _warning-testing:
+
+Testing Warnings
+----------------
+
+To test warnings raised by code, use the :class:`catch_warnings` context
+manager. With it you can temporarily mutate the warnings filter to facilitate
+your testing. For instance, do the following to capture all raised warnings to
+check::
+
+ import warnings
+
+ def fxn():
+ warnings.warn("deprecated", DeprecationWarning)
+
+ with warnings.catch_warnings(record=True) as w:
+ # Cause all warnings to always be triggered.
+ warnings.simplefilter("always")
+ # Trigger a warning.
+ fxn()
+ # Verify some things
+ assert len(w) == 1
+ assert issubclass(w[-1].category, DeprecationWarning)
+ assert "deprecated" in str(w[-1].message)
+
+One can also cause all warnings to be exceptions by using ``error`` instead of
+``always``. One thing to be aware of is that if a warning has already been
+raised because of a ``once``/``default`` rule, then no matter what filters are
+set the warning will not be seen again unless the warnings registry related to
+the warning has been cleared.
+
+Once the context manager exits, the warnings filter is restored to its state
+when the context was entered. This prevents tests from changing the warnings
+filter in unexpected ways between tests and leading to indeterminate test
+results. The :func:`showwarning` function in the module is also restored to
+its original value. Note: this can only be guaranteed in a single-threaded
+application. If two or more threads use the :class:`catch_warnings` context
+manager at the same time, the behavior is undefined.
+
+When testing multiple operations that raise the same kind of warning, it
+is important to test them in a manner that confirms each operation is raising
+a new warning (e.g. set warnings to be raised as exceptions and check the
+operations raise exceptions, check that the length of the warning list
+continues to increase after each operation, or else delete the previous
+entries from the warnings list before each new operation).
+
+
+Updating Code For New Versions of Python
+----------------------------------------
+
+Warnings that are only of interest to the developer are ignored by default. As
+such you should make sure to test your code with typically ignored warnings
+made visible. You can do this from the command-line by passing :option:`-Wd`
+to the interpreter (this is shorthand for :option:`-W default`). This enables
+default handling for all warnings, including those that are ignored by default.
+To change what action is taken for encountered warnings you simply change what
+argument is passed to :option:`-W`, e.g. :option:`-W error`. See the
+:option:`-W` flag for more details on what is possible.
+
+To programmatically do the same as :option:`-Wd`, use::
+
+ warnings.simplefilter('default')
+
+Make sure to execute this code as soon as possible. This prevents the
+registering of what warnings have been raised from unexpectedly influencing how
+future warnings are treated.
+
+Having certain warnings ignored by default is done to prevent a user from
+seeing warnings that are only of interest to the developer. As you do not
+necessarily have control over what interpreter a user uses to run their code,
+it is possible that a new version of Python will be released between your
+release cycles. The new interpreter release could trigger new warnings in your
+code that were not there in an older interpreter, e.g.
+:exc:`DeprecationWarning` for a module that you are using. While you as a
+developer want to be notified that your code is using a deprecated module, to a
+user this information is essentially noise and provides no benefit to them.
+
+
+.. _warning-functions:
+
+Available Functions
+-------------------
+
+
+.. function:: warn(message[, category[, stacklevel]])
+
+ Issue a warning, or maybe ignore it or raise an exception. The *category*
+ argument, if given, must be a warning category class (see above); it defaults to
+ :exc:`UserWarning`. Alternatively *message* can be a :exc:`Warning` instance,
+ in which case *category* will be ignored and ``message.__class__`` will be used.
+ In this case the message text will be ``str(message)``. This function raises an
+ exception if the particular warning issued is changed into an error by the
+ warnings filter see above. The *stacklevel* argument can be used by wrapper
+ functions written in Python, like this::
+
+ def deprecation(message):
+ warnings.warn(message, DeprecationWarning, stacklevel=2)
+
+ This makes the warning refer to :func:`deprecation`'s caller, rather than to the
+ source of :func:`deprecation` itself (since the latter would defeat the purpose
+ of the warning message).
+
+
+.. function:: warn_explicit(message, category, filename, lineno[, module[, registry[, module_globals]]])
+
+ This is a low-level interface to the functionality of :func:`warn`, passing in
+ explicitly the message, category, filename and line number, and optionally the
+ module name and the registry (which should be the ``__warningregistry__``
+ dictionary of the module). The module name defaults to the filename with
+ ``.py`` stripped; if no registry is passed, the warning is never suppressed.
+ *message* must be a string and *category* a subclass of :exc:`Warning` or
+ *message* may be a :exc:`Warning` instance, in which case *category* will be
+ ignored.
+
+ *module_globals*, if supplied, should be the global namespace in use by the code
+ for which the warning is issued. (This argument is used to support displaying
+ source for modules found in zipfiles or other non-filesystem import
+ sources).
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ Added the *module_globals* parameter.
+
+
+.. function:: warnpy3k(message[, category[, stacklevel]])
+
+ Issue a warning related to Python 3.x deprecation. Warnings are only shown
+ when Python is started with the -3 option. Like :func:`warn` *message* must
+ be a string and *category* a subclass of :exc:`Warning`. :func:`warnpy3k`
+ is using :exc:`DeprecationWarning` as default warning class.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. function:: showwarning(message, category, filename, lineno[, file[, line]])
+
+ Write a warning to a file. The default implementation calls
+ ``formatwarning(message, category, filename, lineno, line)`` and writes the
+ resulting string to *file*, which defaults to ``sys.stderr``. You may replace
+ this function with an alternative implementation by assigning to
+ ``warnings.showwarning``.
+ *line* is a line of source code to be included in the warning
+ message; if *line* is not supplied, :func:`showwarning` will
+ try to read the line specified by *filename* and *lineno*.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ The *line* argument is required to be supported.
+
+
+.. function:: formatwarning(message, category, filename, lineno[, line])
+
+ Format a warning the standard way. This returns a string which may contain
+ embedded newlines and ends in a newline. *line* is a line of source code to
+ be included in the warning message; if *line* is not supplied,
+ :func:`formatwarning` will try to read the line specified by *filename* and
+ *lineno*.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ Added the *line* argument.
+
+
+.. function:: filterwarnings(action[, message[, category[, module[, lineno[, append]]]]])
+
+ Insert an entry into the list of :ref:`warnings filter specifications
+ <warning-filter>`. The entry is inserted at the front by default; if
+ *append* is true, it is inserted at the end. This checks the types of the
+ arguments, compiles the *message* and *module* regular expressions, and
+ inserts them as a tuple in the list of warnings filters. Entries closer to
+ the front of the list override entries later in the list, if both match a
+ particular warning. Omitted arguments default to a value that matches
+ everything.
+
+
+.. function:: simplefilter(action[, category[, lineno[, append]]])
+
+ Insert a simple entry into the list of :ref:`warnings filter specifications
+ <warning-filter>`. The meaning of the function parameters is as for
+ :func:`filterwarnings`, but regular expressions are not needed as the filter
+ inserted always matches any message in any module as long as the category and
+ line number match.
+
+
+.. function:: resetwarnings()
+
+ Reset the warnings filter. This discards the effect of all previous calls to
+ :func:`filterwarnings`, including that of the :option:`-W` command line options
+ and calls to :func:`simplefilter`.
+
+
+Available Context Managers
+--------------------------
+
+.. class:: catch_warnings([\*, record=False, module=None])
+
+ A context manager that copies and, upon exit, restores the warnings filter
+ and the :func:`showwarning` function.
+ If the *record* argument is :const:`False` (the default) the context manager
+ returns :class:`None` on entry. If *record* is :const:`True`, a list is
+ returned that is progressively populated with objects as seen by a custom
+ :func:`showwarning` function (which also suppresses output to ``sys.stdout``).
+ Each object in the list has attributes with the same names as the arguments to
+ :func:`showwarning`.
+
+ The *module* argument takes a module that will be used instead of the
+ module returned when you import :mod:`warnings` whose filter will be
+ protected. This argument exists primarily for testing the :mod:`warnings`
+ module itself.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ The :class:`catch_warnings` manager works by replacing and
+ then later restoring the module's
+ :func:`showwarning` function and internal list of filter
+ specifications. This means the context manager is modifying
+ global state and therefore is not thread-safe.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ In Python 3, the arguments to the constructor for
+ :class:`catch_warnings` are keyword-only arguments.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6

+:mod:`wave` --- Read and write WAV files
+========================================
+
+.. module:: wave
+ :synopsis: Provide an interface to the WAV sound format.
+.. sectionauthor:: Moshe Zadka <[email protected]>
+.. Documentations stolen from comments in file.
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/wave.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`wave` module provides a convenient interface to the WAV sound format.
+It does not support compression/decompression, but it does support mono/stereo.
+
+The :mod:`wave` module defines the following function and exception:
+
+
+.. function:: open(file[, mode])
+
+ If *file* is a string, open the file by that name, otherwise treat it as a
+ seekable file-like object. *mode* can be any of
+
+ ``'r'``, ``'rb'``
+ Read only mode.
+
+ ``'w'``, ``'wb'``
+ Write only mode.
+
+ Note that it does not allow read/write WAV files.
+
+ A *mode* of ``'r'`` or ``'rb'`` returns a :class:`Wave_read` object, while a
+ *mode* of ``'w'`` or ``'wb'`` returns a :class:`Wave_write` object. If
+ *mode* is omitted and a file-like object is passed as *file*, ``file.mode``
+ is used as the default value for *mode* (the ``'b'`` flag is still added if
+ necessary).
+
+ If you pass in a file-like object, the wave object will not close it when its
+ :meth:`close` method is called; it is the caller's responsibility to close
+ the file object.
+
+
+.. function:: openfp(file, mode)
+
+ A synonym for :func:`.open`, maintained for backwards compatibility.
+
+
+.. exception:: Error
+
+ An error raised when something is impossible because it violates the WAV
+ specification or hits an implementation deficiency.
+
+
+.. _wave-read-objects:
+
+Wave_read Objects
+-----------------
+
+Wave_read objects, as returned by :func:`.open`, have the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: Wave_read.close()
+
+ Close the stream if it was opened by :mod:`wave`, and make the instance
+ unusable. This is called automatically on object collection.
+
+
+.. method:: Wave_read.getnchannels()
+
+ Returns number of audio channels (``1`` for mono, ``2`` for stereo).
+
+
+.. method:: Wave_read.getsampwidth()
+
+ Returns sample width in bytes.
+
+
+.. method:: Wave_read.getframerate()
+
+ Returns sampling frequency.
+
+
+.. method:: Wave_read.getnframes()
+
+ Returns number of audio frames.
+
+
+.. method:: Wave_read.getcomptype()
+
+ Returns compression type (``'NONE'`` is the only supported type).
+
+
+.. method:: Wave_read.getcompname()
+
+ Human-readable version of :meth:`getcomptype`. Usually ``'not compressed'``
+ parallels ``'NONE'``.
+
+
+.. method:: Wave_read.getparams()
+
+ Returns a tuple ``(nchannels, sampwidth, framerate, nframes, comptype,
+ compname)``, equivalent to output of the :meth:`get\*` methods.
+
+
+.. method:: Wave_read.readframes(n)
+
+ Reads and returns at most *n* frames of audio, as a string of bytes.
+
+
+.. method:: Wave_read.rewind()
+
+ Rewind the file pointer to the beginning of the audio stream.
+
+The following two methods are defined for compatibility with the :mod:`aifc`
+module, and don't do anything interesting.
+
+
+.. method:: Wave_read.getmarkers()
+
+ Returns ``None``.
+
+
+.. method:: Wave_read.getmark(id)
+
+ Raise an error.
+
+The following two methods define a term "position" which is compatible between
+them, and is otherwise implementation dependent.
+
+
+.. method:: Wave_read.setpos(pos)
+
+ Set the file pointer to the specified position.
+
+
+.. method:: Wave_read.tell()
+
+ Return current file pointer position.
+
+
+.. _wave-write-objects:
+
+Wave_write Objects
+------------------
+
+Wave_write objects, as returned by :func:`.open`, have the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: Wave_write.close()
+
+ Make sure *nframes* is correct, and close the file if it was opened by
+ :mod:`wave`. This method is called upon object collection.
+
+
+.. method:: Wave_write.setnchannels(n)
+
+ Set the number of channels.
+
+
+.. method:: Wave_write.setsampwidth(n)
+
+ Set the sample width to *n* bytes.
+
+
+.. method:: Wave_write.setframerate(n)
+
+ Set the frame rate to *n*.
+
+
+.. method:: Wave_write.setnframes(n)
+
+ Set the number of frames to *n*. This will be changed later if more frames are
+ written.
+
+
+.. method:: Wave_write.setcomptype(type, name)
+
+ Set the compression type and description. At the moment, only compression type
+ ``NONE`` is supported, meaning no compression.
+
+
+.. method:: Wave_write.setparams(tuple)
+
+ The *tuple* should be ``(nchannels, sampwidth, framerate, nframes, comptype,
+ compname)``, with values valid for the :meth:`set\*` methods. Sets all
+ parameters.
+
+
+.. method:: Wave_write.tell()
+
+ Return current position in the file, with the same disclaimer for the
+ :meth:`Wave_read.tell` and :meth:`Wave_read.setpos` methods.
+
+
+.. method:: Wave_write.writeframesraw(data)
+
+ Write audio frames, without correcting *nframes*.
+
+
+.. method:: Wave_write.writeframes(data)
+
+ Write audio frames and make sure *nframes* is correct.
+
+
+Note that it is invalid to set any parameters after calling :meth:`writeframes`
+or :meth:`writeframesraw`, and any attempt to do so will raise
+:exc:`wave.Error`.

+:mod:`weakref` --- Weak references
+==================================
+
+.. module:: weakref
+ :synopsis: Support for weak references and weak dictionaries.
+.. moduleauthor:: Fred L. Drake, Jr. <[email protected]>
+.. moduleauthor:: Neil Schemenauer <[email protected]>
+.. moduleauthor:: Martin von Löwis <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Fred L. Drake, Jr. <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.1
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/weakref.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`weakref` module allows the Python programmer to create :dfn:`weak
+references` to objects.
+
+.. When making changes to the examples in this file, be sure to update
+ Lib/test/test_weakref.py::libreftest too!
+
+In the following, the term :dfn:`referent` means the object which is referred to
+by a weak reference.
+
+A weak reference to an object is not enough to keep the object alive: when the
+only remaining references to a referent are weak references,
+:term:`garbage collection` is free to destroy the referent and reuse its memory
+for something else. A primary use for weak references is to implement caches or
+mappings holding large objects, where it's desired that a large object not be
+kept alive solely because it appears in a cache or mapping.
+
+For example, if you have a number of large binary image objects, you may wish to
+associate a name with each. If you used a Python dictionary to map names to
+images, or images to names, the image objects would remain alive just because
+they appeared as values or keys in the dictionaries. The
+:class:`WeakKeyDictionary` and :class:`WeakValueDictionary` classes supplied by
+the :mod:`weakref` module are an alternative, using weak references to construct
+mappings that don't keep objects alive solely because they appear in the mapping
+objects. If, for example, an image object is a value in a
+:class:`WeakValueDictionary`, then when the last remaining references to that
+image object are the weak references held by weak mappings, garbage collection
+can reclaim the object, and its corresponding entries in weak mappings are
+simply deleted.
+
+:class:`WeakKeyDictionary` and :class:`WeakValueDictionary` use weak references
+in their implementation, setting up callback functions on the weak references
+that notify the weak dictionaries when a key or value has been reclaimed by
+garbage collection. Most programs should find that using one of these weak
+dictionary types is all they need -- it's not usually necessary to create your
+own weak references directly. The low-level machinery used by the weak
+dictionary implementations is exposed by the :mod:`weakref` module for the
+benefit of advanced uses.
+
+Not all objects can be weakly referenced; those objects which can include class
+instances, functions written in Python (but not in C), methods (both bound and
+unbound), sets, frozensets, file objects, :term:`generator`\s, type objects,
+:class:`DBcursor` objects from the :mod:`bsddb` module, sockets, arrays, deques,
+regular expression pattern objects, and code objects.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ Added support for files, sockets, arrays, and patterns.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ Added support for thread.lock, threading.Lock, and code objects.
+
+Several built-in types such as :class:`list` and :class:`dict` do not directly
+support weak references but can add support through subclassing::
+
+ class Dict(dict):
+ pass
+
+ obj = Dict(red=1, green=2, blue=3) # this object is weak referenceable
+
+.. impl-detail::
+
+ Other built-in types such as :class:`tuple` and :class:`long` do not support
+ weak references even when subclassed.
+
+Extension types can easily be made to support weak references; see
+:ref:`weakref-support`.
+
+
+.. class:: ref(object[, callback])
+
+ Return a weak reference to *object*. The original object can be retrieved by
+ calling the reference object if the referent is still alive; if the referent is
+ no longer alive, calling the reference object will cause :const:`None` to be
+ returned. If *callback* is provided and not :const:`None`, and the returned
+ weakref object is still alive, the callback will be called when the object is
+ about to be finalized; the weak reference object will be passed as the only
+ parameter to the callback; the referent will no longer be available.
+
+ It is allowable for many weak references to be constructed for the same object.
+ Callbacks registered for each weak reference will be called from the most
+ recently registered callback to the oldest registered callback.
+
+ Exceptions raised by the callback will be noted on the standard error output,
+ but cannot be propagated; they are handled in exactly the same way as exceptions
+ raised from an object's :meth:`__del__` method.
+
+ Weak references are :term:`hashable` if the *object* is hashable. They will maintain
+ their hash value even after the *object* was deleted. If :func:`hash` is called
+ the first time only after the *object* was deleted, the call will raise
+ :exc:`TypeError`.
+
+ Weak references support tests for equality, but not ordering. If the referents
+ are still alive, two references have the same equality relationship as their
+ referents (regardless of the *callback*). If either referent has been deleted,
+ the references are equal only if the reference objects are the same object.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.4
+ This is now a subclassable type rather than a factory function; it derives from
+ :class:`object`.
+
+
+.. function:: proxy(object[, callback])
+
+ Return a proxy to *object* which uses a weak reference. This supports use of
+ the proxy in most contexts instead of requiring the explicit dereferencing used
+ with weak reference objects. The returned object will have a type of either
+ ``ProxyType`` or ``CallableProxyType``, depending on whether *object* is
+ callable. Proxy objects are not :term:`hashable` regardless of the referent; this
+ avoids a number of problems related to their fundamentally mutable nature, and
+ prevent their use as dictionary keys. *callback* is the same as the parameter
+ of the same name to the :func:`ref` function.
+
+
+.. function:: getweakrefcount(object)
+
+ Return the number of weak references and proxies which refer to *object*.
+
+
+.. function:: getweakrefs(object)
+
+ Return a list of all weak reference and proxy objects which refer to *object*.
+
+
+.. class:: WeakKeyDictionary([dict])
+
+ Mapping class that references keys weakly. Entries in the dictionary will be
+ discarded when there is no longer a strong reference to the key. This can be
+ used to associate additional data with an object owned by other parts of an
+ application without adding attributes to those objects. This can be especially

+.. _weakref-objects:
+
+Weak Reference Objects
+----------------------
+
+Weak reference objects have no attributes or methods, but do allow the referent
+to be obtained, if it still exists, by calling it:
+
+ >>> import weakref
+ >>> class Object:
+ ... pass
+ ...
+ >>> o = Object()
+ >>> r = weakref.ref(o)
+ >>> o2 = r()
+ >>> o is o2
+ True
+
+If the referent no longer exists, calling the reference object returns
+:const:`None`:
+
+ >>> del o, o2
+ >>> print r()
+ None
+
+Testing that a weak reference object is still live should be done using the
+expression ``ref() is not None``. Normally, application code that needs to use
+a reference object should follow this pattern::
+
+ # r is a weak reference object
+ o = r()
+ if o is None:
+ # referent has been garbage collected
+ print "Object has been deallocated; can't frobnicate."
+ else:
+ print "Object is still live!"
+ o.do_something_useful()
+
+Using a separate test for "liveness" creates race conditions in threaded
+applications; another thread can cause a weak reference to become invalidated
+before the weak reference is called; the idiom shown above is safe in threaded
+applications as well as single-threaded applications.
+
+Specialized versions of :class:`ref` objects can be created through subclassing.
+This is used in the implementation of the :class:`WeakValueDictionary` to reduce
+the memory overhead for each entry in the mapping. This may be most useful to
+associate additional information with a reference, but could also be used to
+insert additional processing on calls to retrieve the referent.
+
+This example shows how a subclass of :class:`ref` can be used to store
+additional information about an object and affect the value that's returned when
+the referent is accessed::
+
+ import weakref
+
+ class ExtendedRef(weakref.ref):
+ def __init__(self, ob, callback=None, **annotations):
+ super(ExtendedRef, self).__init__(ob, callback)
+ self.__counter = 0
+ for k, v in annotations.iteritems():
+ setattr(self, k, v)
+
+ def __call__(self):
+ """Return a pair containing the referent and the number of
+ times the reference has been called.
+ """
+ ob = super(ExtendedRef, self).__call__()
+ if ob is not None:
+ self.__counter += 1
+ ob = (ob, self.__counter)
+ return ob
+
+
+.. _weakref-example:
+
+Example
+-------
+
+This simple example shows how an application can use objects IDs to retrieve
+objects that it has seen before. The IDs of the objects can then be used in
+other data structures without forcing the objects to remain alive, but the
+objects can still be retrieved by ID if they do.
+
+.. Example contributed by Tim Peters.

+

+:mod:`webbrowser` --- Convenient Web-browser controller
+=======================================================
+
+.. module:: webbrowser
+ :synopsis: Easy-to-use controller for Web browsers.
+.. moduleauthor:: Fred L. Drake, Jr. <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Fred L. Drake, Jr. <[email protected]>
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/webbrowser.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :mod:`webbrowser` module provides a high-level interface to allow displaying
+Web-based documents to users. Under most circumstances, simply calling the
+:func:`.open` function from this module will do the right thing.
+
+Under Unix, graphical browsers are preferred under X11, but text-mode browsers
+will be used if graphical browsers are not available or an X11 display isn't
+available. If text-mode browsers are used, the calling process will block until
+the user exits the browser.
+
+If the environment variable :envvar:`BROWSER` exists, it is interpreted to
+override the platform default list of browsers, as a :data:`os.pathsep`-separated
+list of browsers to try in order. When the value of a list part contains the
+string ``%s``, then it is interpreted as a literal browser command line to be
+used with the argument URL substituted for ``%s``; if the part does not contain
+``%s``, it is simply interpreted as the name of the browser to launch. [1]_
+
+For non-Unix platforms, or when a remote browser is available on Unix, the
+controlling process will not wait for the user to finish with the browser, but
+allow the remote browser to maintain its own windows on the display. If remote
+browsers are not available on Unix, the controlling process will launch a new
+browser and wait.
+
+The script :program:`webbrowser` can be used as a command-line interface for the
+module. It accepts an URL as the argument. It accepts the following optional
+parameters: ``-n`` opens the URL in a new browser window, if possible;
+``-t`` opens the URL in a new browser page ("tab"). The options are,
+naturally, mutually exclusive. Usage example::
+
+ python -m webbrowser -t "http://www.python.org"
+
+The following exception is defined:
+
+
+.. exception:: Error
+
+ Exception raised when a browser control error occurs.
+
+The following functions are defined:
+
+
+.. function:: open(url, new=0, autoraise=True)
+
+ Display *url* using the default browser. If *new* is 0, the *url* is opened
+ in the same browser window if possible. If *new* is 1, a new browser window
+ is opened if possible. If *new* is 2, a new browser page ("tab") is opened
+ if possible. If *autoraise* is ``True``, the window is raised if possible
+ (note that under many window managers this will occur regardless of the
+ setting of this variable).
+
+ Note that on some platforms, trying to open a filename using this function,
+ may work and start the operating system's associated program. However, this
+ is neither supported nor portable.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ *new* can now be 2.
+
+
+.. function:: open_new(url)
+
+ Open *url* in a new window of the default browser, if possible, otherwise, open
+ *url* in the only browser window.
+
+.. function:: open_new_tab(url)
+
+ Open *url* in a new page ("tab") of the default browser, if possible, otherwise
+ equivalent to :func:`open_new`.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. function:: get([name])
+
+ Return a controller object for the browser type *name*. If *name* is empty,
+ return a controller for a default browser appropriate to the caller's
+ environment.
+
+
+.. function:: register(name, constructor[, instance])
+
+ Register the browser type *name*. Once a browser type is registered, the
+ :func:`get` function can return a controller for that browser type. If
+ *instance* is not provided, or is ``None``, *constructor* will be called without
+ parameters to create an instance when needed. If *instance* is provided,
+ *constructor* will never be called, and may be ``None``.
+
+ This entry point is only useful if you plan to either set the :envvar:`BROWSER`
+ variable or call :func:`get` with a nonempty argument matching the name of a
+ handler you declare.
+
+A number of browser types are predefined. This table gives the type names that
+may be passed to the :func:`get` function and the corresponding instantiations
+for the controller classes, all defined in this module.

+:mod:`winsound` --- Sound-playing interface for Windows
+=======================================================
+
+.. module:: winsound
+ :platform: Windows
+ :synopsis: Access to the sound-playing machinery for Windows.
+.. moduleauthor:: Toby Dickenson <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Fred L. Drake, Jr. <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. versionadded:: 1.5.2
+
+The :mod:`winsound` module provides access to the basic sound-playing machinery
+provided by Windows platforms. It includes functions and several constants.
+
+
+.. function:: Beep(frequency, duration)
+
+ Beep the PC's speaker. The *frequency* parameter specifies frequency, in hertz,
+ of the sound, and must be in the range 37 through 32,767. The *duration*
+ parameter specifies the number of milliseconds the sound should last. If the
+ system is not able to beep the speaker, :exc:`RuntimeError` is raised.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 1.6
+
+
+.. function:: PlaySound(sound, flags)
+
+ Call the underlying :c:func:`PlaySound` function from the Platform API. The
+ *sound* parameter may be a filename, audio data as a string, or ``None``. Its
+ interpretation depends on the value of *flags*, which can be a bitwise ORed
+ combination of the constants described below. If the *sound* parameter is
+ ``None``, any currently playing waveform sound is stopped. If the system
+ indicates an error, :exc:`RuntimeError` is raised.
+
+
+.. function:: MessageBeep([type=MB_OK])
+
+ Call the underlying :c:func:`MessageBeep` function from the Platform API. This
+ plays a sound as specified in the registry. The *type* argument specifies which
+ sound to play; possible values are ``-1``, ``MB_ICONASTERISK``,
+ ``MB_ICONEXCLAMATION``, ``MB_ICONHAND``, ``MB_ICONQUESTION``, and ``MB_OK``, all
+ described below. The value ``-1`` produces a "simple beep"; this is the final
+ fallback if a sound cannot be played otherwise.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. data:: SND_FILENAME
+
+ The *sound* parameter is the name of a WAV file. Do not use with
+ :const:`SND_ALIAS`.
+
+
+.. data:: SND_ALIAS
+
+ The *sound* parameter is a sound association name from the registry. If the
+ registry contains no such name, play the system default sound unless
+ :const:`SND_NODEFAULT` is also specified. If no default sound is registered,
+ raise :exc:`RuntimeError`. Do not use with :const:`SND_FILENAME`.
+
+ All Win32 systems support at least the following; most systems support many
+ more:
+
+ +--------------------------+----------------------------------------+
+ | :func:`PlaySound` *name* | Corresponding Control Panel Sound name |
+ +==========================+========================================+
+ | ``'SystemAsterisk'`` | Asterisk |
+ +--------------------------+----------------------------------------+
+ | ``'SystemExclamation'`` | Exclamation |
+ +--------------------------+----------------------------------------+
+ | ``'SystemExit'`` | Exit Windows |
+ +--------------------------+----------------------------------------+
+ | ``'SystemHand'`` | Critical Stop |
+ +--------------------------+----------------------------------------+
+ | ``'SystemQuestion'`` | Question |
+ +--------------------------+----------------------------------------+
+
+ For example::
+
+ import winsound
+ # Play Windows exit sound.
+ winsound.PlaySound("SystemExit", winsound.SND_ALIAS)
+
+ # Probably play Windows default sound, if any is registered (because
+ # "*" probably isn't the registered name of any sound).
+ winsound.PlaySound("*", winsound.SND_ALIAS)
+
+
+.. data:: SND_LOOP
+
+ Play the sound repeatedly. The :const:`SND_ASYNC` flag must also be used to
+ avoid blocking. Cannot be used with :const:`SND_MEMORY`.
+
+
+.. data:: SND_MEMORY
+
+ The *sound* parameter to :func:`PlaySound` is a memory image of a WAV file, as a
+ string.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ This module does not support playing from a memory image asynchronously, so a
+ combination of this flag and :const:`SND_ASYNC` will raise :exc:`RuntimeError`.
+
+
+.. data:: SND_PURGE
+
+ Stop playing all instances of the specified sound.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ This flag is not supported on modern Windows platforms.
+
+
+.. data:: SND_ASYNC
+
+ Return immediately, allowing sounds to play asynchronously.
+
+
+.. data:: SND_NODEFAULT
+
+ If the specified sound cannot be found, do not play the system default sound.
+
+
+.. data:: SND_NOSTOP
+
+ Do not interrupt sounds currently playing.
+
+
+.. data:: SND_NOWAIT
+
+ Return immediately if the sound driver is busy.
+
+
+.. data:: MB_ICONASTERISK
+
+ Play the ``SystemDefault`` sound.
+
+
+.. data:: MB_ICONEXCLAMATION
+
+ Play the ``SystemExclamation`` sound.
+
+
+.. data:: MB_ICONHAND
+
+ Play the ``SystemHand`` sound.

+
+ Play the ``SystemQuestion`` sound.
+
+

+:mod:`wsgiref` --- WSGI Utilities and Reference Implementation
+==============================================================
+
+.. module:: wsgiref
+ :synopsis: WSGI Utilities and Reference Implementation.
+.. moduleauthor:: Phillip J. Eby <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Phillip J. Eby <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+The Web Server Gateway Interface (WSGI) is a standard interface between web
+server software and web applications written in Python. Having a standard
+interface makes it easy to use an application that supports WSGI with a number
+of different web servers.
+
+Only authors of web servers and programming frameworks need to know every detail
+and corner case of the WSGI design. You don't need to understand every detail
+of WSGI just to install a WSGI application or to write a web application using
+an existing framework.
+
+:mod:`wsgiref` is a reference implementation of the WSGI specification that can
+be used to add WSGI support to a web server or framework. It provides utilities
+for manipulating WSGI environment variables and response headers, base classes
+for implementing WSGI servers, a demo HTTP server that serves WSGI applications,
+and a validation tool that checks WSGI servers and applications for conformance
+to the WSGI specification (:pep:`333`).
+
+See http://www.wsgi.org for more information about WSGI, and links to tutorials
+and other resources.
+
+.. XXX If you're just trying to write a web application...
+
+
+:mod:`wsgiref.util` -- WSGI environment utilities
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+.. module:: wsgiref.util
+ :synopsis: WSGI environment utilities.
+
+
+This module provides a variety of utility functions for working with WSGI
+environments. A WSGI environment is a dictionary containing HTTP request
+variables as described in :pep:`333`. All of the functions taking an *environ*
+parameter expect a WSGI-compliant dictionary to be supplied; please see
+:pep:`333` for a detailed specification.
+
+
+.. function:: guess_scheme(environ)
+
+ Return a guess for whether ``wsgi.url_scheme`` should be "http" or "https", by
+ checking for a ``HTTPS`` environment variable in the *environ* dictionary. The
+ return value is a string.
+
+ This function is useful when creating a gateway that wraps CGI or a CGI-like
+ protocol such as FastCGI. Typically, servers providing such protocols will
+ include a ``HTTPS`` variable with a value of "1" "yes", or "on" when a request
+ is received via SSL. So, this function returns "https" if such a value is
+ found, and "http" otherwise.
+
+
+.. function:: request_uri(environ, include_query=1)
+
+ Return the full request URI, optionally including the query string, using the
+ algorithm found in the "URL Reconstruction" section of :pep:`333`. If
+ *include_query* is false, the query string is not included in the resulting URI.
+
+
+.. function:: application_uri(environ)
+
+ Similar to :func:`request_uri`, except that the ``PATH_INFO`` and
+ ``QUERY_STRING`` variables are ignored. The result is the base URI of the
+ application object addressed by the request.
+
+
+.. function:: shift_path_info(environ)
+
+ Shift a single name from ``PATH_INFO`` to ``SCRIPT_NAME`` and return the name.
+ The *environ* dictionary is *modified* in-place; use a copy if you need to keep
+ the original ``PATH_INFO`` or ``SCRIPT_NAME`` intact.
+
+ If there are no remaining path segments in ``PATH_INFO``, ``None`` is returned.
+
+ Typically, this routine is used to process each portion of a request URI path,
+ for example to treat the path as a series of dictionary keys. This routine
+ modifies the passed-in environment to make it suitable for invoking another WSGI
+ application that is located at the target URI. For example, if there is a WSGI
+ application at ``/foo``, and the request URI path is ``/foo/bar/baz``, and the
+ WSGI application at ``/foo`` calls :func:`shift_path_info`, it will receive the
+ string "bar", and the environment will be updated to be suitable for passing to
+ a WSGI application at ``/foo/bar``. That is, ``SCRIPT_NAME`` will change from
+ ``/foo`` to ``/foo/bar``, and ``PATH_INFO`` will change from ``/bar/baz`` to
+ ``/baz``.
+
+ When ``PATH_INFO`` is just a "/", this routine returns an empty string and
+ appends a trailing slash to ``SCRIPT_NAME``, even though empty path segments are
+ normally ignored, and ``SCRIPT_NAME`` doesn't normally end in a slash. This is
+ intentional behavior, to ensure that an application can tell the difference
+ between URIs ending in ``/x`` from ones ending in ``/x/`` when using this
+ routine to do object traversal.
+
+
+.. function:: setup_testing_defaults(environ)
+
+ Update *environ* with trivial defaults for testing purposes.
+
+ This routine adds various parameters required for WSGI, including ``HTTP_HOST``,
+ ``SERVER_NAME``, ``SERVER_PORT``, ``REQUEST_METHOD``, ``SCRIPT_NAME``,
+ ``PATH_INFO``, and all of the :pep:`333`\ -defined ``wsgi.*`` variables. It
+ only supplies default values, and does not replace any existing settings for
+ these variables.
+
+ This routine is intended to make it easier for unit tests of WSGI servers and
+ applications to set up dummy environments. It should NOT be used by actual WSGI
+ servers or applications, since the data is fake!
+
+ Example usage::
+
+ from wsgiref.util import setup_testing_defaults
+ from wsgiref.simple_server import make_server
+
+ # A relatively simple WSGI application. It's going to print out the
+ # environment dictionary after being updated by setup_testing_defaults
+ def simple_app(environ, start_response):
+ setup_testing_defaults(environ)
+
+ status = '200 OK'
+ headers = [('Content-type', 'text/plain')]
+
+ start_response(status, headers)
+
+ ret = ["%s: %s\n" % (key, value)
+ for key, value in environ.iteritems()]
+ return ret
+
+ httpd = make_server('', 8000, simple_app)
+ print "Serving on port 8000..."
+ httpd.serve_forever()
+
+
+In addition to the environment functions above, the :mod:`wsgiref.util` module
+also provides these miscellaneous utilities:
+
+
+.. function:: is_hop_by_hop(header_name)
+
+ Return true if 'header_name' is an HTTP/1.1 "Hop-by-Hop" header, as defined by
+ :rfc:`2616`.
+
+
+.. class:: FileWrapper(filelike, blksize=8192)
+
+ A wrapper to convert a file-like object to an :term:`iterator`. The resulting objects
+ support both :meth:`__getitem__` and :meth:`__iter__` iteration styles, for
+ compatibility with Python 2.1 and Jython. As the object is iterated over, the
+ optional *blksize* parameter will be repeatedly passed to the *filelike*
+ object's :meth:`read` method to obtain strings to yield. When :meth:`read`
+ returns an empty string, iteration is ended and is not resumable.
+
+ If *filelike* has a :meth:`close` method, the returned object will also have a
+ :meth:`close` method, and it will invoke the *filelike* object's :meth:`close`
+ method when called.
+
+ Example usage::
+
+ from StringIO import StringIO
+ from wsgiref.util import FileWrapper
+
+ # We're using a StringIO-buffer for as the file-like object
+ filelike = StringIO("This is an example file-like object"*10)
+ wrapper = FileWrapper(filelike, blksize=5)
+
+ for chunk in wrapper:
+ print chunk
+
+
+
+:mod:`wsgiref.headers` -- WSGI response header tools
+----------------------------------------------------
+
+.. module:: wsgiref.headers
+ :synopsis: WSGI response header tools.
+
+
+This module provides a single class, :class:`Headers`, for convenient
+manipulation of WSGI response headers using a mapping-like interface.
+
+
+.. class:: Headers(headers)
+
+ Create a mapping-like object wrapping *headers*, which must be a list of header
+ name/value tuples as described in :pep:`333`. Any changes made to the new
+ :class:`Headers` object will directly update the *headers* list it was created
+ with.
+
+ :class:`Headers` objects support typical mapping operations including
+ :meth:`__getitem__`, :meth:`get`, :meth:`__setitem__`, :meth:`setdefault`,
+ :meth:`__delitem__`, :meth:`__contains__` and :meth:`has_key`. For each of
+ these methods, the key is the header name (treated case-insensitively), and the
+ value is the first value associated with that header name. Setting a header
+ deletes any existing values for that header, then adds a new value at the end of
+ the wrapped header list. Headers' existing order is generally maintained, with
+ new headers added to the end of the wrapped list.
+
+ Unlike a dictionary, :class:`Headers` objects do not raise an error when you try
+ to get or delete a key that isn't in the wrapped header list. Getting a
+ nonexistent header just returns ``None``, and deleting a nonexistent header does
+ nothing.
+
+ :class:`Headers` objects also support :meth:`keys`, :meth:`values`, and
+ :meth:`items` methods. The lists returned by :meth:`keys` and :meth:`items` can
+ include the same key more than once if there is a multi-valued header. The
+ ``len()`` of a :class:`Headers` object is the same as the length of its
+ :meth:`items`, which is the same as the length of the wrapped header list. In
+ fact, the :meth:`items` method just returns a copy of the wrapped header list.
+
+ Calling ``str()`` on a :class:`Headers` object returns a formatted string
+ suitable for transmission as HTTP response headers. Each header is placed on a
+ line with its value, separated by a colon and a space. Each line is terminated
+ by a carriage return and line feed, and the string is terminated with a blank
+ line.
+
+ In addition to their mapping interface and formatting features, :class:`Headers`
+ objects also have the following methods for querying and adding multi-valued
+ headers, and for adding headers with MIME parameters:
+
+
+ .. method:: Headers.get_all(name)
+
+ Return a list of all the values for the named header.
+
+ The returned list will be sorted in the order they appeared in the original
+ header list or were added to this instance, and may contain duplicates. Any
+ fields deleted and re-inserted are always appended to the header list. If no
+ fields exist with the given name, returns an empty list.
+
+
+ .. method:: Headers.add_header(name, value, **_params)
+
+ Add a (possibly multi-valued) header, with optional MIME parameters specified
+ via keyword arguments.
+
+ *name* is the header field to add. Keyword arguments can be used to set MIME
+ parameters for the header field. Each parameter must be a string or ``None``.
+ Underscores in parameter names are converted to dashes, since dashes are illegal
+ in Python identifiers, but many MIME parameter names include dashes. If the
+ parameter value is a string, it is added to the header value parameters in the
+ form ``name="value"``. If it is ``None``, only the parameter name is added.
+ (This is used for MIME parameters without a value.) Example usage::
+
+ h.add_header('content-disposition', 'attachment', filename='bud.gif')
+
+ The above will add a header that looks like this::
+
+ Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="bud.gif"
+
+
+:mod:`wsgiref.simple_server` -- a simple WSGI HTTP server
+---------------------------------------------------------
+
+.. module:: wsgiref.simple_server
+ :synopsis: A simple WSGI HTTP server.
+
+
+This module implements a simple HTTP server (based on :mod:`BaseHTTPServer`)
+that serves WSGI applications. Each server instance serves a single WSGI
+application on a given host and port. If you want to serve multiple
+applications on a single host and port, you should create a WSGI application
+that parses ``PATH_INFO`` to select which application to invoke for each
+request. (E.g., using the :func:`shift_path_info` function from
+:mod:`wsgiref.util`.)
+
+
+.. function:: make_server(host, port, app, server_class=WSGIServer, handler_class=WSGIRequestHandler)
+
+ Create a new WSGI server listening on *host* and *port*, accepting connections
+ for *app*. The return value is an instance of the supplied *server_class*, and
+ will process requests using the specified *handler_class*. *app* must be a WSGI
+ application object, as defined by :pep:`333`.
+
+ Example usage::
+
+ from wsgiref.simple_server import make_server, demo_app
+
+ httpd = make_server('', 8000, demo_app)
+ print "Serving HTTP on port 8000..."
+
+ # Respond to requests until process is killed
+ httpd.serve_forever()
+
+ # Alternative: serve one request, then exit
+ httpd.handle_request()
+
+
+.. function:: demo_app(environ, start_response)
+
+ This function is a small but complete WSGI application that returns a text page
+ containing the message "Hello world!" and a list of the key/value pairs provided
+ in the *environ* parameter. It's useful for verifying that a WSGI server (such
+ as :mod:`wsgiref.simple_server`) is able to run a simple WSGI application
+ correctly.
+
+
+.. class:: WSGIServer(server_address, RequestHandlerClass)
+
+ Create a :class:`WSGIServer` instance. *server_address* should be a
+ ``(host,port)`` tuple, and *RequestHandlerClass* should be the subclass of
+ :class:`BaseHTTPServer.BaseHTTPRequestHandler` that will be used to process
+ requests.
+
+ You do not normally need to call this constructor, as the :func:`make_server`
+ function can handle all the details for you.
+
+ :class:`WSGIServer` is a subclass of :class:`BaseHTTPServer.HTTPServer`, so all
+ of its methods (such as :meth:`serve_forever` and :meth:`handle_request`) are
+ available. :class:`WSGIServer` also provides these WSGI-specific methods:
+
+
+ .. method:: WSGIServer.set_app(application)
+
+ Sets the callable *application* as the WSGI application that will receive
+ requests.
+
+
+ .. method:: WSGIServer.get_app()
+
+ Returns the currently-set application callable.
+
+ Normally, however, you do not need to use these additional methods, as
+ :meth:`set_app` is normally called by :func:`make_server`, and the
+ :meth:`get_app` exists mainly for the benefit of request handler instances.
+
+
+.. class:: WSGIRequestHandler(request, client_address, server)
+
+ Create an HTTP handler for the given *request* (i.e. a socket), *client_address*
+ (a ``(host,port)`` tuple), and *server* (:class:`WSGIServer` instance).
+
+ You do not need to create instances of this class directly; they are
+ automatically created as needed by :class:`WSGIServer` objects. You can,
+ however, subclass this class and supply it as a *handler_class* to the
+ :func:`make_server` function. Some possibly relevant methods for overriding in
+ subclasses:
+
+
+ .. method:: WSGIRequestHandler.get_environ()
+
+ Returns a dictionary containing the WSGI environment for a request. The default
+ implementation copies the contents of the :class:`WSGIServer` object's
+ :attr:`base_environ` dictionary attribute and then adds various headers derived
+ from the HTTP request. Each call to this method should return a new dictionary
+ containing all of the relevant CGI environment variables as specified in
+ :pep:`333`.
+
+
+ .. method:: WSGIRequestHandler.get_stderr()
+
+ Return the object that should be used as the ``wsgi.errors`` stream. The default
+ implementation just returns ``sys.stderr``.
+
+
+ .. method:: WSGIRequestHandler.handle()
+
+ Process the HTTP request. The default implementation creates a handler instance
+ using a :mod:`wsgiref.handlers` class to implement the actual WSGI application
+ interface.
+
+
+:mod:`wsgiref.validate` --- WSGI conformance checker
+----------------------------------------------------
+
+.. module:: wsgiref.validate
+ :synopsis: WSGI conformance checker.
+
+
+When creating new WSGI application objects, frameworks, servers, or middleware,
+it can be useful to validate the new code's conformance using
+:mod:`wsgiref.validate`. This module provides a function that creates WSGI
+application objects that validate communications between a WSGI server or
+gateway and a WSGI application object, to check both sides for protocol
+conformance.
+
+Note that this utility does not guarantee complete :pep:`333` compliance; an
+absence of errors from this module does not necessarily mean that errors do not
+exist. However, if this module does produce an error, then it is virtually
+certain that either the server or application is not 100% compliant.
+
+This module is based on the :mod:`paste.lint` module from Ian Bicking's "Python
+Paste" library.
+
+
+.. function:: validator(application)
+
+ Wrap *application* and return a new WSGI application object. The returned
+ application will forward all requests to the original *application*, and will
+ check that both the *application* and the server invoking it are conforming to
+ the WSGI specification and to RFC 2616.
+
+ Any detected nonconformance results in an :exc:`AssertionError` being raised;
+ note, however, that how these errors are handled is server-dependent. For
+ example, :mod:`wsgiref.simple_server` and other servers based on
+ :mod:`wsgiref.handlers` (that don't override the error handling methods to do
+ something else) will simply output a message that an error has occurred, and
+ dump the traceback to ``sys.stderr`` or some other error stream.
+
+ This wrapper may also generate output using the :mod:`warnings` module to
+ indicate behaviors that are questionable but which may not actually be
+ prohibited by :pep:`333`. Unless they are suppressed using Python command-line
+ options or the :mod:`warnings` API, any such warnings will be written to
+ ``sys.stderr`` (*not* ``wsgi.errors``, unless they happen to be the same
+ object).
+
+ Example usage::
+
+ from wsgiref.validate import validator
+ from wsgiref.simple_server import make_server
+
+ # Our callable object which is intentionally not compliant to the
+ # standard, so the validator is going to break
+ def simple_app(environ, start_response):
+ status = '200 OK' # HTTP Status
+ headers = [('Content-type', 'text/plain')] # HTTP Headers
+ start_response(status, headers)
+
+ # This is going to break because we need to return a list, and
+ # the validator is going to inform us
+ return "Hello World"
+
+ # This is the application wrapped in a validator
+ validator_app = validator(simple_app)
+
+ httpd = make_server('', 8000, validator_app)
+ print "Listening on port 8000...."
+ httpd.serve_forever()
+
+
+:mod:`wsgiref.handlers` -- server/gateway base classes
+------------------------------------------------------
+
+.. module:: wsgiref.handlers
+ :synopsis: WSGI server/gateway base classes.
+
+
+This module provides base handler classes for implementing WSGI servers and
+gateways. These base classes handle most of the work of communicating with a
+WSGI application, as long as they are given a CGI-like environment, along with
+input, output, and error streams.
+
+
+.. class:: CGIHandler()
+
+ CGI-based invocation via ``sys.stdin``, ``sys.stdout``, ``sys.stderr`` and
+ ``os.environ``. This is useful when you have a WSGI application and want to run
+ it as a CGI script. Simply invoke ``CGIHandler().run(app)``, where ``app`` is
+ the WSGI application object you wish to invoke.
+
+ This class is a subclass of :class:`BaseCGIHandler` that sets ``wsgi.run_once``
+ to true, ``wsgi.multithread`` to false, and ``wsgi.multiprocess`` to true, and
+ always uses :mod:`sys` and :mod:`os` to obtain the necessary CGI streams and
+ environment.
+
+
+.. class:: BaseCGIHandler(stdin, stdout, stderr, environ, multithread=True, multiprocess=False)
+
+ Similar to :class:`CGIHandler`, but instead of using the :mod:`sys` and
+ :mod:`os` modules, the CGI environment and I/O streams are specified explicitly.
+ The *multithread* and *multiprocess* values are used to set the
+ ``wsgi.multithread`` and ``wsgi.multiprocess`` flags for any applications run by
+ the handler instance.
+
+ This class is a subclass of :class:`SimpleHandler` intended for use with
+ software other than HTTP "origin servers". If you are writing a gateway
+ protocol implementation (such as CGI, FastCGI, SCGI, etc.) that uses a
+ ``Status:`` header to send an HTTP status, you probably want to subclass this
+ instead of :class:`SimpleHandler`.
+
+
+.. class:: SimpleHandler(stdin, stdout, stderr, environ, multithread=True, multiprocess=False)
+
+ Similar to :class:`BaseCGIHandler`, but designed for use with HTTP origin
+ servers. If you are writing an HTTP server implementation, you will probably
+ want to subclass this instead of :class:`BaseCGIHandler`
+
+ This class is a subclass of :class:`BaseHandler`. It overrides the
+ :meth:`__init__`, :meth:`get_stdin`, :meth:`get_stderr`, :meth:`add_cgi_vars`,
+ :meth:`_write`, and :meth:`_flush` methods to support explicitly setting the
+ environment and streams via the constructor. The supplied environment and
+ streams are stored in the :attr:`stdin`, :attr:`stdout`, :attr:`stderr`, and
+ :attr:`environ` attributes.
+
+
+.. class:: BaseHandler()
+
+ This is an abstract base class for running WSGI applications. Each instance
+ will handle a single HTTP request, although in principle you could create a
+ subclass that was reusable for multiple requests.
+
+ :class:`BaseHandler` instances have only one method intended for external use:
+
+
+ .. method:: BaseHandler.run(app)
+
+ Run the specified WSGI application, *app*.
+
+ All of the other :class:`BaseHandler` methods are invoked by this method in the
+ process of running the application, and thus exist primarily to allow
+ customizing the process.
+
+ The following methods MUST be overridden in a subclass:
+
+
+ .. method:: BaseHandler._write(data)
+
+ Buffer the string *data* for transmission to the client. It's okay if this
+ method actually transmits the data; :class:`BaseHandler` just separates write
+ and flush operations for greater efficiency when the underlying system actually
+ has such a distinction.
+
+
+ .. method:: BaseHandler._flush()
+
+ Force buffered data to be transmitted to the client. It's okay if this method
+ is a no-op (i.e., if :meth:`_write` actually sends the data).
+
+
+ .. method:: BaseHandler.get_stdin()
+
+ Return an input stream object suitable for use as the ``wsgi.input`` of the
+ request currently being processed.
+
+
+ .. method:: BaseHandler.get_stderr()
+
+ Return an output stream object suitable for use as the ``wsgi.errors`` of the
+ request currently being processed.
+
+
+ .. method:: BaseHandler.add_cgi_vars()
+
+ Insert CGI variables for the current request into the :attr:`environ` attribute.
+
+ Here are some other methods and attributes you may wish to override. This list
+ is only a summary, however, and does not include every method that can be
+ overridden. You should consult the docstrings and source code for additional
+ information before attempting to create a customized :class:`BaseHandler`
+ subclass.
+
+ Attributes and methods for customizing the WSGI environment:
+
+
+ .. attribute:: BaseHandler.wsgi_multithread
+
+ The value to be used for the ``wsgi.multithread`` environment variable. It
+ defaults to true in :class:`BaseHandler`, but may have a different default (or
+ be set by the constructor) in the other subclasses.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: BaseHandler.wsgi_multiprocess
+
+ The value to be used for the ``wsgi.multiprocess`` environment variable. It
+ defaults to true in :class:`BaseHandler`, but may have a different default (or
+ be set by the constructor) in the other subclasses.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: BaseHandler.wsgi_run_once
+
+ The value to be used for the ``wsgi.run_once`` environment variable. It
+ defaults to false in :class:`BaseHandler`, but :class:`CGIHandler` sets it to
+ true by default.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: BaseHandler.os_environ
+
+ The default environment variables to be included in every request's WSGI
+ environment. By default, this is a copy of ``os.environ`` at the time that
+ :mod:`wsgiref.handlers` was imported, but subclasses can either create their own
+ at the class or instance level. Note that the dictionary should be considered
+ read-only, since the default value is shared between multiple classes and
+ instances.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: BaseHandler.server_software
+
+ If the :attr:`origin_server` attribute is set, this attribute's value is used to
+ set the default ``SERVER_SOFTWARE`` WSGI environment variable, and also to set a
+ default ``Server:`` header in HTTP responses. It is ignored for handlers (such
+ as :class:`BaseCGIHandler` and :class:`CGIHandler`) that are not HTTP origin
+ servers.
+
+
+ .. method:: BaseHandler.get_scheme()
+
+ Return the URL scheme being used for the current request. The default
+ implementation uses the :func:`guess_scheme` function from :mod:`wsgiref.util`
+ to guess whether the scheme should be "http" or "https", based on the current
+ request's :attr:`environ` variables.
+
+
+ .. method:: BaseHandler.setup_environ()
+
+ Set the :attr:`environ` attribute to a fully-populated WSGI environment. The
+ default implementation uses all of the above methods and attributes, plus the
+ :meth:`get_stdin`, :meth:`get_stderr`, and :meth:`add_cgi_vars` methods and the
+ :attr:`wsgi_file_wrapper` attribute. It also inserts a ``SERVER_SOFTWARE`` key
+ if not present, as long as the :attr:`origin_server` attribute is a true value
+ and the :attr:`server_software` attribute is set.
+
+ Methods and attributes for customizing exception handling:
+
+
+ .. method:: BaseHandler.log_exception(exc_info)
+
+ Log the *exc_info* tuple in the server log. *exc_info* is a ``(type, value,
+ traceback)`` tuple. The default implementation simply writes the traceback to
+ the request's ``wsgi.errors`` stream and flushes it. Subclasses can override
+ this method to change the format or retarget the output, mail the traceback to
+ an administrator, or whatever other action may be deemed suitable.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: BaseHandler.traceback_limit
+
+ The maximum number of frames to include in tracebacks output by the default
+ :meth:`log_exception` method. If ``None``, all frames are included.
+
+
+ .. method:: BaseHandler.error_output(environ, start_response)
+
+ This method is a WSGI application to generate an error page for the user. It is
+ only invoked if an error occurs before headers are sent to the client.
+
+ This method can access the current error information using ``sys.exc_info()``,
+ and should pass that information to *start_response* when calling it (as
+ described in the "Error Handling" section of :pep:`333`).
+
+ The default implementation just uses the :attr:`error_status`,
+ :attr:`error_headers`, and :attr:`error_body` attributes to generate an output
+ page. Subclasses can override this to produce more dynamic error output.
+
+ Note, however, that it's not recommended from a security perspective to spit out
+ diagnostics to any old user; ideally, you should have to do something special to
+ enable diagnostic output, which is why the default implementation doesn't
+ include any.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: BaseHandler.error_status
+
+ The HTTP status used for error responses. This should be a status string as
+ defined in :pep:`333`; it defaults to a 500 code and message.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: BaseHandler.error_headers
+
+ The HTTP headers used for error responses. This should be a list of WSGI
+ response headers (``(name, value)`` tuples), as described in :pep:`333`. The
+ default list just sets the content type to ``text/plain``.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: BaseHandler.error_body
+
+ The error response body. This should be an HTTP response body string. It
+ defaults to the plain text, "A server error occurred. Please contact the
+ administrator."
+
+ Methods and attributes for :pep:`333`'s "Optional Platform-Specific File
+ Handling" feature:
+
+
+ .. attribute:: BaseHandler.wsgi_file_wrapper
+
+ A ``wsgi.file_wrapper`` factory, or ``None``. The default value of this
+ attribute is the :class:`FileWrapper` class from :mod:`wsgiref.util`.
+
+
+ .. method:: BaseHandler.sendfile()
+
+ Override to implement platform-specific file transmission. This method is
+ called only if the application's return value is an instance of the class
+ specified by the :attr:`wsgi_file_wrapper` attribute. It should return a true
+ value if it was able to successfully transmit the file, so that the default
+ transmission code will not be executed. The default implementation of this
+ method just returns a false value.
+
+ Miscellaneous methods and attributes:
+
+
+ .. attribute:: BaseHandler.origin_server
+
+ This attribute should be set to a true value if the handler's :meth:`_write` and
+ :meth:`_flush` are being used to communicate directly to the client, rather than
+ via a CGI-like gateway protocol that wants the HTTP status in a special
+ ``Status:`` header.
+
+ This attribute's default value is true in :class:`BaseHandler`, but false in
+ :class:`BaseCGIHandler` and :class:`CGIHandler`.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: BaseHandler.http_version
+
+ If :attr:`origin_server` is true, this string attribute is used to set the HTTP
+ version of the response set to the client. It defaults to ``"1.0"``.
+
+
+Examples
+--------
+
+This is a working "Hello World" WSGI application::
+
+ from wsgiref.simple_server import make_server
+
+ # Every WSGI application must have an application object - a callable
+ # object that accepts two arguments. For that purpose, we're going to
+ # use a function (note that you're not limited to a function, you can
+ # use a class for example). The first argument passed to the function
+ # is a dictionary containing CGI-style envrironment variables and the
+ # second variable is the callable object (see PEP 333).
+ def hello_world_app(environ, start_response):
+ status = '200 OK' # HTTP Status
+ headers = [('Content-type', 'text/plain')] # HTTP Headers
+ start_response(status, headers)
+
+ # The returned object is going to be printed
+ return ["Hello World"]
+
+ httpd = make_server('', 8000, hello_world_app)
+ print "Serving on port 8000..."
+
+ # Serve until process is killed
+ httpd.serve_forever()

+also two exception classes.
+
+
+.. class:: Packer()
+
+ :class:`Packer` is the class for packing data into XDR representation. The
+ :class:`Packer` class is instantiated with no arguments.
+
+
+.. class:: Unpacker(data)
+
+ ``Unpacker`` is the complementary class which unpacks XDR data values from a
+ string buffer. The input buffer is given as *data*.
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ :rfc:`1014` - XDR: External Data Representation Standard
+ This RFC defined the encoding of data which was XDR at the time this module was

+.. method:: Packer.reset()
+
+ Resets the pack buffer to the empty string.
+
+In general, you can pack any of the most common XDR data types by calling the
+appropriate ``pack_type()`` method. Each method takes a single argument, the
+value to pack. The following simple data type packing methods are supported:
+:meth:`pack_uint`, :meth:`pack_int`, :meth:`pack_enum`, :meth:`pack_bool`,
+:meth:`pack_uhyper`, and :meth:`pack_hyper`.
+
+
+.. method:: Packer.pack_float(value)
+
+ Packs the single-precision floating point number *value*.
+
+
+.. method:: Packer.pack_double(value)
+
+ Packs the double-precision floating point number *value*.
+
+The following methods support packing strings, bytes, and opaque data:
+
+
+.. method:: Packer.pack_fstring(n, s)
+
+ Packs a fixed length string, *s*. *n* is the length of the string but it is
+ *not* packed into the data buffer. The string is padded with null bytes if
+ necessary to guaranteed 4 byte alignment.
+
+
+.. method:: Packer.pack_fopaque(n, data)
+
+ Packs a fixed length opaque data stream, similarly to :meth:`pack_fstring`.
+
+
+.. method:: Packer.pack_string(s)
+
+ Packs a variable length string, *s*. The length of the string is first packed
+ as an unsigned integer, then the string data is packed with
+ :meth:`pack_fstring`.
+
+
+.. method:: Packer.pack_opaque(data)
+
+ Packs a variable length opaque data string, similarly to :meth:`pack_string`.
+
+
+.. method:: Packer.pack_bytes(bytes)
+
+ Packs a variable length byte stream, similarly to :meth:`pack_string`.
+
+The following methods support packing arrays and lists:
+
+
+.. method:: Packer.pack_list(list, pack_item)
+
+ Packs a *list* of homogeneous items. This method is useful for lists with an
+ indeterminate size; i.e. the size is not available until the entire list has
+ been walked. For each item in the list, an unsigned integer ``1`` is packed
+ first, followed by the data value from the list. *pack_item* is the function
+ that is called to pack the individual item. At the end of the list, an unsigned
+ integer ``0`` is packed.
+
+ For example, to pack a list of integers, the code might appear like this::
+
+ import xdrlib
+ p = xdrlib.Packer()
+ p.pack_list([1, 2, 3], p.pack_int)
+
+
+.. method:: Packer.pack_farray(n, array, pack_item)
+
+ Packs a fixed length list (*array*) of homogeneous items. *n* is the length of
+ the list; it is *not* packed into the buffer, but a :exc:`ValueError` exception
+ is raised if ``len(array)`` is not equal to *n*. As above, *pack_item* is the
+ function used to pack each element.
+
+
+.. method:: Packer.pack_array(list, pack_item)
+
+ Packs a variable length *list* of homogeneous items. First, the length of the
+ list is packed as an unsigned integer, then each element is packed as in
+ :meth:`pack_farray` above.
+
+
+.. _xdr-unpacker-objects:
+
+Unpacker Objects
+----------------
+
+The :class:`Unpacker` class offers the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: Unpacker.reset(data)
+
+ Resets the string buffer with the given *data*.
+
+
+.. method:: Unpacker.get_position()
+
+ Returns the current unpack position in the data buffer.
+
+
+.. method:: Unpacker.set_position(position)
+
+ Sets the data buffer unpack position to *position*. You should be careful about
+ using :meth:`get_position` and :meth:`set_position`.
+
+
+.. method:: Unpacker.get_buffer()
+
+ Returns the current unpack data buffer as a string.
+
+
+.. method:: Unpacker.done()
+
+ Indicates unpack completion. Raises an :exc:`Error` exception if all of the
+ data has not been unpacked.
+
+In addition, every data type that can be packed with a :class:`Packer`, can be
+unpacked with an :class:`Unpacker`. Unpacking methods are of the form
+``unpack_type()``, and take no arguments. They return the unpacked object.
+
+
+.. method:: Unpacker.unpack_float()
+
+ Unpacks a single-precision floating point number.
+
+
+.. method:: Unpacker.unpack_double()
+
+ Unpacks a double-precision floating point number, similarly to
+ :meth:`unpack_float`.
+
+In addition, the following methods unpack strings, bytes, and opaque data:
+
+
+.. method:: Unpacker.unpack_fstring(n)
+
+ Unpacks and returns a fixed length string. *n* is the number of characters
+ expected. Padding with null bytes to guaranteed 4 byte alignment is assumed.
+
+
+.. method:: Unpacker.unpack_fopaque(n)
+
+ Unpacks and returns a fixed length opaque data stream, similarly to
+ :meth:`unpack_fstring`.
+
+
+.. method:: Unpacker.unpack_string()
+
+ Unpacks and returns a variable length string. The length of the string is first
+ unpacked as an unsigned integer, then the string data is unpacked with
+ :meth:`unpack_fstring`.
+
+
+.. method:: Unpacker.unpack_opaque()
+
+ Unpacks and returns a variable length opaque data string, similarly to
+ :meth:`unpack_string`.
+
+
+.. method:: Unpacker.unpack_bytes()
+
+ Unpacks and returns a variable length byte stream, similarly to
+ :meth:`unpack_string`.
+
+The following methods support unpacking arrays and lists:
+
+
+.. method:: Unpacker.unpack_list(unpack_item)
+
+ Unpacks and returns a list of homogeneous items. The list is unpacked one
+ element at a time by first unpacking an unsigned integer flag. If the flag is
+ ``1``, then the item is unpacked and appended to the list. A flag of ``0``
+ indicates the end of the list. *unpack_item* is the function that is called to
+ unpack the items.
+
+
+.. method:: Unpacker.unpack_farray(n, unpack_item)
+
+ Unpacks and returns (as a list) a fixed length array of homogeneous items. *n*
+ is number of list elements to expect in the buffer. As above, *unpack_item* is
+ the function used to unpack each element.
+
+
+.. method:: Unpacker.unpack_array(unpack_item)
+
+ Unpacks and returns a variable length *list* of homogeneous items. First, the
+ length of the list is unpacked as an unsigned integer, then each element is
+ unpacked as in :meth:`unpack_farray` above.
+
+
+.. _xdr-exceptions:

+Exceptions
+----------
+
+Exceptions in this module are coded as class instances:
+
+

+
+ The base exception class. :exc:`Error` has a single public attribute
+ :attr:`msg` containing the description of the error.
+
+
+.. exception:: ConversionError
+
+ Class derived from :exc:`Error`. Contains no additional instance variables.
+
+Here is an example of how you would catch one of these exceptions::
+

+:mod:`xml.dom.minidom` --- Minimal DOM implementation
+=====================================================
+
+.. module:: xml.dom.minidom
+ :synopsis: Minimal Document Object Model (DOM) implementation.
+.. moduleauthor:: Paul Prescod <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Paul Prescod <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Martin v. Löwis <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/xml/dom/minidom.py`
+
+--------------
+
+:mod:`xml.dom.minidom` is a minimal implementation of the Document Object
+Model interface, with an API similar to that in other languages. It is intended
+to be simpler than the full DOM and also significantly smaller. Users who are
+not already proficient with the DOM should consider using the
+:mod:`xml.etree.ElementTree` module for their XML processing instead
+
+
+.. warning::
+
+ The :mod:`xml.dom.minidom` module is not secure against
+ maliciously constructed data. If you need to parse untrusted or
+ unauthenticated data see :ref:`xml-vulnerabilities`.
+
+
+DOM applications typically start by parsing some XML into a DOM. With
+:mod:`xml.dom.minidom`, this is done through the parse functions::
+
+ from xml.dom.minidom import parse, parseString
+
+ dom1 = parse('c:\\temp\\mydata.xml') # parse an XML file by name
+
+ datasource = open('c:\\temp\\mydata.xml')
+ dom2 = parse(datasource) # parse an open file
+
+ dom3 = parseString('<myxml>Some data<empty/> some more data</myxml>')
+
+The :func:`parse` function can take either a filename or an open file object.
+
+
+.. function:: parse(filename_or_file[, parser[, bufsize]])
+
+ Return a :class:`Document` from the given input. *filename_or_file* may be
+ either a file name, or a file-like object. *parser*, if given, must be a SAX2
+ parser object. This function will change the document handler of the parser and
+ activate namespace support; other parser configuration (like setting an entity
+ resolver) must have been done in advance.
+
+If you have XML in a string, you can use the :func:`parseString` function
+instead:
+
+
+.. function:: parseString(string[, parser])
+
+ Return a :class:`Document` that represents the *string*. This method creates a
+ :class:`StringIO` object for the string and passes that on to :func:`parse`.
+
+Both functions return a :class:`Document` object representing the content of the
+document.
+
+What the :func:`parse` and :func:`parseString` functions do is connect an XML
+parser with a "DOM builder" that can accept parse events from any SAX parser and
+convert them into a DOM tree. The name of the functions are perhaps misleading,
+but are easy to grasp when learning the interfaces. The parsing of the document
+will be completed before these functions return; it's simply that these
+functions do not provide a parser implementation themselves.
+
+You can also create a :class:`Document` by calling a method on a "DOM
+Implementation" object. You can get this object either by calling the
+:func:`getDOMImplementation` function in the :mod:`xml.dom` package or the
+:mod:`xml.dom.minidom` module. Using the implementation from the
+:mod:`xml.dom.minidom` module will always return a :class:`Document` instance
+from the minidom implementation, while the version from :mod:`xml.dom` may
+provide an alternate implementation (this is likely if you have the `PyXML
+package <http://pyxml.sourceforge.net/>`_ installed). Once you have a
+:class:`Document`, you can add child nodes to it to populate the DOM::
+
+ from xml.dom.minidom import getDOMImplementation
+
+ impl = getDOMImplementation()
+
+ newdoc = impl.createDocument(None, "some_tag", None)
+ top_element = newdoc.documentElement
+ text = newdoc.createTextNode('Some textual content.')
+ top_element.appendChild(text)
+
+Once you have a DOM document object, you can access the parts of your XML
+document through its properties and methods. These properties are defined in
+the DOM specification. The main property of the document object is the
+:attr:`documentElement` property. It gives you the main element in the XML
+document: the one that holds all others. Here is an example program::
+
+ dom3 = parseString("<myxml>Some data</myxml>")
+ assert dom3.documentElement.tagName == "myxml"
+
+When you are finished with a DOM tree, you may optionally call the
+:meth:`unlink` method to encourage early cleanup of the now-unneeded
+objects. :meth:`unlink` is a :mod:`xml.dom.minidom`\ -specific
+extension to the DOM API that renders the node and its descendants are
+essentially useless. Otherwise, Python's garbage collector will
+eventually take care of the objects in the tree.
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ `Document Object Model (DOM) Level 1 Specification <http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-DOM-Level-1/>`_
+ The W3C recommendation for the DOM supported by :mod:`xml.dom.minidom`.
+
+
+.. _minidom-objects:
+
+DOM Objects
+-----------
+
+The definition of the DOM API for Python is given as part of the :mod:`xml.dom`
+module documentation. This section lists the differences between the API and
+:mod:`xml.dom.minidom`.
+
+
+.. method:: Node.unlink()
+
+ Break internal references within the DOM so that it will be garbage collected on
+ versions of Python without cyclic GC. Even when cyclic GC is available, using
+ this can make large amounts of memory available sooner, so calling this on DOM
+ objects as soon as they are no longer needed is good practice. This only needs
+ to be called on the :class:`Document` object, but may be called on child nodes
+ to discard children of that node.
+
+
+.. method:: Node.writexml(writer, indent="", addindent="", newl="")
+
+ Write XML to the writer object. The writer should have a :meth:`write` method
+ which matches that of the file object interface. The *indent* parameter is the
+ indentation of the current node. The *addindent* parameter is the incremental
+ indentation to use for subnodes of the current one. The *newl* parameter
+ specifies the string to use to terminate newlines.
+
+ For the :class:`Document` node, an additional keyword argument *encoding* can
+ be used to specify the encoding field of the XML header.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.1
+ The optional keyword parameters *indent*, *addindent*, and *newl* were added to
+ support pretty output.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ For the :class:`Document` node, an additional keyword argument
+ *encoding* can be used to specify the encoding field of the XML header.
+
+
+.. method:: Node.toxml([encoding])
+
+ Return the XML that the DOM represents as a string.
+
+ With no argument, the XML header does not specify an encoding, and the result is
+ Unicode string if the default encoding cannot represent all characters in the
+ document. Encoding this string in an encoding other than UTF-8 is likely
+ incorrect, since UTF-8 is the default encoding of XML.
+
+ With an explicit *encoding* [1]_ argument, the result is a byte string in the
+ specified encoding. It is recommended that this argument is always specified. To
+ avoid :exc:`UnicodeError` exceptions in case of unrepresentable text data, the
+ encoding argument should be specified as "utf-8".
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ the *encoding* argument was introduced; see :meth:`writexml`.
+
+
+.. method:: Node.toprettyxml([indent=""[, newl=""[, encoding=""]]])
+
+ Return a pretty-printed version of the document. *indent* specifies the
+ indentation string and defaults to a tabulator; *newl* specifies the string
+ emitted at the end of each line and defaults to ``\n``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.1
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.3
+ the encoding argument was introduced; see :meth:`writexml`.
+
+The following standard DOM methods have special considerations with
+:mod:`xml.dom.minidom`:
+
+
+.. method:: Node.cloneNode(deep)
+
+ Although this method was present in the version of :mod:`xml.dom.minidom`
+ packaged with Python 2.0, it was seriously broken. This has been corrected for
+ subsequent releases.
+
+
+.. _dom-example:
+
+DOM Example
+-----------
+
+This example program is a fairly realistic example of a simple program. In this
+particular case, we do not take much advantage of the flexibility of the DOM.
+
+.. literalinclude:: ../includes/minidom-example.py
+
+
+.. _minidom-and-dom:
+
+minidom and the DOM standard
+----------------------------
+
+The :mod:`xml.dom.minidom` module is essentially a DOM 1.0-compatible DOM with
+some DOM 2 features (primarily namespace features).
+
+Usage of the DOM interface in Python is straight-forward. The following mapping
+rules apply:
+
+* Interfaces are accessed through instance objects. Applications should not
+ instantiate the classes themselves; they should use the creator functions
+ available on the :class:`Document` object. Derived interfaces support all
+ operations (and attributes) from the base interfaces, plus any new operations.
+
+* Operations are used as methods. Since the DOM uses only :keyword:`in`
+ parameters, the arguments are passed in normal order (from left to right).
+ There are no optional arguments. ``void`` operations return ``None``.
+
+* IDL attributes map to instance attributes. For compatibility with the OMG IDL
+ language mapping for Python, an attribute ``foo`` can also be accessed through
+ accessor methods :meth:`_get_foo` and :meth:`_set_foo`. ``readonly``
+ attributes must not be changed; this is not enforced at runtime.
+
+* The types ``short int``, ``unsigned int``, ``unsigned long long``, and
+ ``boolean`` all map to Python integer objects.
+
+* The type ``DOMString`` maps to Python strings. :mod:`xml.dom.minidom` supports
+ either byte or Unicode strings, but will normally produce Unicode strings.
+ Values of type ``DOMString`` may also be ``None`` where allowed to have the IDL
+ ``null`` value by the DOM specification from the W3C.
+
+* ``const`` declarations map to variables in their respective scope (e.g.
+ ``xml.dom.minidom.Node.PROCESSING_INSTRUCTION_NODE``); they must not be changed.
+
+* ``DOMException`` is currently not supported in :mod:`xml.dom.minidom`.
+ Instead, :mod:`xml.dom.minidom` uses standard Python exceptions such as
+ :exc:`TypeError` and :exc:`AttributeError`.
+
+* :class:`NodeList` objects are implemented using Python's built-in list type.
+ Starting with Python 2.2, these objects provide the interface defined in the DOM
+ specification, but with earlier versions of Python they do not support the
+ official API. They are, however, much more "Pythonic" than the interface
+ defined in the W3C recommendations.
+
+The following interfaces have no implementation in :mod:`xml.dom.minidom`:
+
+* :class:`DOMTimeStamp`
+
+* :class:`DocumentType` (added in Python 2.1)
+
+* :class:`DOMImplementation` (added in Python 2.1)
+
+* :class:`CharacterData`
+
+* :class:`CDATASection`
+
+* :class:`Notation`
+
+* :class:`Entity`
+
+* :class:`EntityReference`
+
+* :class:`DocumentFragment`
+
+Most of these reflect information in the XML document that is not of general
+utility to most DOM users.
+
+.. rubric:: Footnotes
+
+.. [#] The encoding string included in XML output should conform to the
+ appropriate standards. For example, "UTF-8" is valid, but "UTF8" is
+ not. See http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/REC-xml11-20060816/#NT-EncodingDecl
+ and http://www.iana.org/assignments/character-sets .

+:mod:`xml.dom` --- The Document Object Model API
+================================================
+
+.. module:: xml.dom
+ :synopsis: Document Object Model API for Python.
+.. sectionauthor:: Paul Prescod <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Martin v. Löwis <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+The Document Object Model, or "DOM," is a cross-language API from the World Wide
+Web Consortium (W3C) for accessing and modifying XML documents. A DOM
+implementation presents an XML document as a tree structure, or allows client
+code to build such a structure from scratch. It then gives access to the
+structure through a set of objects which provided well-known interfaces.
+
+The DOM is extremely useful for random-access applications. SAX only allows you
+a view of one bit of the document at a time. If you are looking at one SAX
+element, you have no access to another. If you are looking at a text node, you
+have no access to a containing element. When you write a SAX application, you
+need to keep track of your program's position in the document somewhere in your
+own code. SAX does not do it for you. Also, if you need to look ahead in the
+XML document, you are just out of luck.
+
+Some applications are simply impossible in an event driven model with no access
+to a tree. Of course you could build some sort of tree yourself in SAX events,
+but the DOM allows you to avoid writing that code. The DOM is a standard tree
+representation for XML data.
+
+The Document Object Model is being defined by the W3C in stages, or "levels" in
+their terminology. The Python mapping of the API is substantially based on the
+DOM Level 2 recommendation.
+
+.. XXX PyXML is dead...
+.. The mapping of the Level 3 specification, currently
+ only available in draft form, is being developed by the `Python XML Special
+ Interest Group <http://www.python.org/sigs/xml-sig/>`_ as part of the `PyXML
+ package <http://pyxml.sourceforge.net/>`_. Refer to the documentation bundled
+ with that package for information on the current state of DOM Level 3 support.
+
+.. What if your needs are somewhere between SAX and the DOM? Perhaps
+ you cannot afford to load the entire tree in memory but you find the
+ SAX model somewhat cumbersome and low-level. There is also a module
+ called xml.dom.pulldom that allows you to build trees of only the
+ parts of a document that you need structured access to. It also has
+ features that allow you to find your way around the DOM.
+ See http://www.prescod.net/python/pulldom
+
+DOM applications typically start by parsing some XML into a DOM. How this is
+accomplished is not covered at all by DOM Level 1, and Level 2 provides only
+limited improvements: There is a :class:`DOMImplementation` object class which
+provides access to :class:`Document` creation methods, but no way to access an
+XML reader/parser/Document builder in an implementation-independent way. There
+is also no well-defined way to access these methods without an existing
+:class:`Document` object. In Python, each DOM implementation will provide a
+function :func:`getDOMImplementation`. DOM Level 3 adds a Load/Store
+specification, which defines an interface to the reader, but this is not yet
+available in the Python standard library.
+
+Once you have a DOM document object, you can access the parts of your XML
+document through its properties and methods. These properties are defined in
+the DOM specification; this portion of the reference manual describes the
+interpretation of the specification in Python.
+
+The specification provided by the W3C defines the DOM API for Java, ECMAScript,
+and OMG IDL. The Python mapping defined here is based in large part on the IDL
+version of the specification, but strict compliance is not required (though
+implementations are free to support the strict mapping from IDL). See section
+:ref:`dom-conformance` for a detailed discussion of mapping requirements.
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ `Document Object Model (DOM) Level 2 Specification <http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-2-Core/>`_
+ The W3C recommendation upon which the Python DOM API is based.
+
+ `Document Object Model (DOM) Level 1 Specification <http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-DOM-Level-1/>`_
+ The W3C recommendation for the DOM supported by :mod:`xml.dom.minidom`.
+
+ `Python Language Mapping Specification <http://www.omg.org/spec/PYTH/1.2/PDF>`_
+ This specifies the mapping from OMG IDL to Python.
+
+
+Module Contents
+---------------
+
+The :mod:`xml.dom` contains the following functions:
+
+
+.. function:: registerDOMImplementation(name, factory)
+
+ Register the *factory* function with the name *name*. The factory function
+ should return an object which implements the :class:`DOMImplementation`
+ interface. The factory function can return the same object every time, or a new
+ one for each call, as appropriate for the specific implementation (e.g. if that
+ implementation supports some customization).
+
+
+.. function:: getDOMImplementation([name[, features]])
+
+ Return a suitable DOM implementation. The *name* is either well-known, the
+ module name of a DOM implementation, or ``None``. If it is not ``None``, imports
+ the corresponding module and returns a :class:`DOMImplementation` object if the
+ import succeeds. If no name is given, and if the environment variable
+ :envvar:`PYTHON_DOM` is set, this variable is used to find the implementation.
+
+ If name is not given, this examines the available implementations to find one
+ with the required feature set. If no implementation can be found, raise an
+ :exc:`ImportError`. The features list must be a sequence of ``(feature,
+ version)`` pairs which are passed to the :meth:`hasFeature` method on available
+ :class:`DOMImplementation` objects.
+
+Some convenience constants are also provided:
+
+
+.. data:: EMPTY_NAMESPACE
+
+ The value used to indicate that no namespace is associated with a node in the
+ DOM. This is typically found as the :attr:`namespaceURI` of a node, or used as
+ the *namespaceURI* parameter to a namespaces-specific method.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+
+.. data:: XML_NAMESPACE
+
+ The namespace URI associated with the reserved prefix ``xml``, as defined by
+ `Namespaces in XML <http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml-names/>`_ (section 4).
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+
+.. data:: XMLNS_NAMESPACE
+
+ The namespace URI for namespace declarations, as defined by `Document Object
+ Model (DOM) Level 2 Core Specification
+ <http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-2-Core/core.html>`_ (section 1.1.8).
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+
+.. data:: XHTML_NAMESPACE
+
+ The URI of the XHTML namespace as defined by `XHTML 1.0: The Extensible
+ HyperText Markup Language <http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/>`_ (section 3.1.1).
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+In addition, :mod:`xml.dom` contains a base :class:`Node` class and the DOM
+exception classes. The :class:`Node` class provided by this module does not
+implement any of the methods or attributes defined by the DOM specification;
+concrete DOM implementations must provide those. The :class:`Node` class
+provided as part of this module does provide the constants used for the
+:attr:`nodeType` attribute on concrete :class:`Node` objects; they are located
+within the class rather than at the module level to conform with the DOM
+specifications.
+
+.. Should the Node documentation go here?
+
+
+.. _dom-objects:
+
+Objects in the DOM
+------------------
+
+The definitive documentation for the DOM is the DOM specification from the W3C.
+
+Note that DOM attributes may also be manipulated as nodes instead of as simple
+strings. It is fairly rare that you must do this, however, so this usage is not
+yet documented.

+
+.. _dom-implementation-objects:
+
+DOMImplementation Objects
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The :class:`DOMImplementation` interface provides a way for applications to
+determine the availability of particular features in the DOM they are using.
+DOM Level 2 added the ability to create new :class:`Document` and
+:class:`DocumentType` objects using the :class:`DOMImplementation` as well.
+
+
+.. method:: DOMImplementation.hasFeature(feature, version)
+
+ Return true if the feature identified by the pair of strings *feature* and
+ *version* is implemented.
+
+
+.. method:: DOMImplementation.createDocument(namespaceUri, qualifiedName, doctype)
+
+ Return a new :class:`Document` object (the root of the DOM), with a child
+ :class:`Element` object having the given *namespaceUri* and *qualifiedName*. The
+ *doctype* must be a :class:`DocumentType` object created by
+ :meth:`createDocumentType`, or ``None``. In the Python DOM API, the first two
+ arguments can also be ``None`` in order to indicate that no :class:`Element`
+ child is to be created.
+
+
+.. method:: DOMImplementation.createDocumentType(qualifiedName, publicId, systemId)
+
+ Return a new :class:`DocumentType` object that encapsulates the given
+ *qualifiedName*, *publicId*, and *systemId* strings, representing the
+ information contained in an XML document type declaration.
+
+
+.. _dom-node-objects:
+
+Node Objects
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+All of the components of an XML document are subclasses of :class:`Node`.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Node.nodeType
+
+ An integer representing the node type. Symbolic constants for the types are on
+ the :class:`Node` object: :const:`ELEMENT_NODE`, :const:`ATTRIBUTE_NODE`,
+ :const:`TEXT_NODE`, :const:`CDATA_SECTION_NODE`, :const:`ENTITY_NODE`,
+ :const:`PROCESSING_INSTRUCTION_NODE`, :const:`COMMENT_NODE`,
+ :const:`DOCUMENT_NODE`, :const:`DOCUMENT_TYPE_NODE`, :const:`NOTATION_NODE`.
+ This is a read-only attribute.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Node.parentNode
+
+ The parent of the current node, or ``None`` for the document node. The value is
+ always a :class:`Node` object or ``None``. For :class:`Element` nodes, this
+ will be the parent element, except for the root element, in which case it will
+ be the :class:`Document` object. For :class:`Attr` nodes, this is always
+ ``None``. This is a read-only attribute.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Node.attributes
+
+ A :class:`NamedNodeMap` of attribute objects. Only elements have actual values
+ for this; others provide ``None`` for this attribute. This is a read-only
+ attribute.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Node.previousSibling
+
+ The node that immediately precedes this one with the same parent. For
+ instance the element with an end-tag that comes just before the *self*
+ element's start-tag. Of course, XML documents are made up of more than just
+ elements so the previous sibling could be text, a comment, or something else.
+ If this node is the first child of the parent, this attribute will be
+ ``None``. This is a read-only attribute.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Node.nextSibling
+
+ The node that immediately follows this one with the same parent. See also
+ :attr:`previousSibling`. If this is the last child of the parent, this
+ attribute will be ``None``. This is a read-only attribute.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Node.childNodes
+
+ A list of nodes contained within this node. This is a read-only attribute.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Node.firstChild
+
+ The first child of the node, if there are any, or ``None``. This is a read-only
+ attribute.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Node.lastChild
+
+ The last child of the node, if there are any, or ``None``. This is a read-only
+ attribute.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Node.localName
+
+ The part of the :attr:`tagName` following the colon if there is one, else the
+ entire :attr:`tagName`. The value is a string.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Node.prefix
+
+ The part of the :attr:`tagName` preceding the colon if there is one, else the
+ empty string. The value is a string, or ``None``
+
+
+.. attribute:: Node.namespaceURI
+
+ The namespace associated with the element name. This will be a string or
+ ``None``. This is a read-only attribute.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Node.nodeName
+
+ This has a different meaning for each node type; see the DOM specification for
+ details. You can always get the information you would get here from another
+ property such as the :attr:`tagName` property for elements or the :attr:`name`
+ property for attributes. For all node types, the value of this attribute will be
+ either a string or ``None``. This is a read-only attribute.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Node.nodeValue
+
+ This has a different meaning for each node type; see the DOM specification for
+ details. The situation is similar to that with :attr:`nodeName`. The value is
+ a string or ``None``.
+
+
+.. method:: Node.hasAttributes()
+
+ Returns true if the node has any attributes.
+
+
+.. method:: Node.hasChildNodes()
+
+ Returns true if the node has any child nodes.
+
+
+.. method:: Node.isSameNode(other)
+
+ Returns true if *other* refers to the same node as this node. This is especially
+ useful for DOM implementations which use any sort of proxy architecture (because
+ more than one object can refer to the same node).
+
+ .. note::
+
+ This is based on a proposed DOM Level 3 API which is still in the "working
+ draft" stage, but this particular interface appears uncontroversial. Changes
+ from the W3C will not necessarily affect this method in the Python DOM interface
+ (though any new W3C API for this would also be supported).
+
+
+.. method:: Node.appendChild(newChild)
+
+ Add a new child node to this node at the end of the list of
+ children, returning *newChild*. If the node was already in
+ the tree, it is removed first.
+
+
+.. method:: Node.insertBefore(newChild, refChild)
+
+ Insert a new child node before an existing child. It must be the case that
+ *refChild* is a child of this node; if not, :exc:`ValueError` is raised.
+ *newChild* is returned. If *refChild* is ``None``, it inserts *newChild* at the
+ end of the children's list.
+
+
+.. method:: Node.removeChild(oldChild)
+
+ Remove a child node. *oldChild* must be a child of this node; if not,
+ :exc:`ValueError` is raised. *oldChild* is returned on success. If *oldChild*
+ will not be used further, its :meth:`unlink` method should be called.
+
+
+.. method:: Node.replaceChild(newChild, oldChild)
+
+ Replace an existing node with a new node. It must be the case that *oldChild*
+ is a child of this node; if not, :exc:`ValueError` is raised.
+
+
+.. method:: Node.normalize()
+
+ Join adjacent text nodes so that all stretches of text are stored as single
+ :class:`Text` instances. This simplifies processing text from a DOM tree for
+ many applications.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.1
+
+
+.. method:: Node.cloneNode(deep)
+
+ Clone this node. Setting *deep* means to clone all child nodes as well. This
+ returns the clone.
+
+
+.. _dom-nodelist-objects:
+
+NodeList Objects
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+A :class:`NodeList` represents a sequence of nodes. These objects are used in
+two ways in the DOM Core recommendation: the :class:`Element` objects provides
+one as its list of child nodes, and the :meth:`getElementsByTagName` and
+:meth:`getElementsByTagNameNS` methods of :class:`Node` return objects with this
+interface to represent query results.
+
+The DOM Level 2 recommendation defines one method and one attribute for these
+objects:
+
+
+.. method:: NodeList.item(i)
+
+ Return the *i*'th item from the sequence, if there is one, or ``None``. The
+ index *i* is not allowed to be less then zero or greater than or equal to the
+ length of the sequence.
+
+
+.. attribute:: NodeList.length
+
+ The number of nodes in the sequence.
+
+In addition, the Python DOM interface requires that some additional support is
+provided to allow :class:`NodeList` objects to be used as Python sequences. All
+:class:`NodeList` implementations must include support for :meth:`__len__` and
+:meth:`__getitem__`; this allows iteration over the :class:`NodeList` in
+:keyword:`for` statements and proper support for the :func:`len` built-in
+function.
+
+If a DOM implementation supports modification of the document, the
+:class:`NodeList` implementation must also support the :meth:`__setitem__` and
+:meth:`__delitem__` methods.
+
+
+.. _dom-documenttype-objects:
+
+DocumentType Objects
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Information about the notations and entities declared by a document (including
+the external subset if the parser uses it and can provide the information) is
+available from a :class:`DocumentType` object. The :class:`DocumentType` for a
+document is available from the :class:`Document` object's :attr:`doctype`
+attribute; if there is no ``DOCTYPE`` declaration for the document, the
+document's :attr:`doctype` attribute will be set to ``None`` instead of an
+instance of this interface.
+
+:class:`DocumentType` is a specialization of :class:`Node`, and adds the
+following attributes:
+
+
+.. attribute:: DocumentType.publicId
+
+ The public identifier for the external subset of the document type definition.
+ This will be a string or ``None``.
+
+
+.. attribute:: DocumentType.systemId
+
+ The system identifier for the external subset of the document type definition.
+ This will be a URI as a string, or ``None``.
+
+
+.. attribute:: DocumentType.internalSubset
+
+ A string giving the complete internal subset from the document. This does not
+ include the brackets which enclose the subset. If the document has no internal
+ subset, this should be ``None``.
+
+
+.. attribute:: DocumentType.name
+
+ The name of the root element as given in the ``DOCTYPE`` declaration, if
+ present.
+
+
+.. attribute:: DocumentType.entities
+
+ This is a :class:`NamedNodeMap` giving the definitions of external entities.
+ For entity names defined more than once, only the first definition is provided
+ (others are ignored as required by the XML recommendation). This may be
+ ``None`` if the information is not provided by the parser, or if no entities are
+ defined.
+
+
+.. attribute:: DocumentType.notations
+
+ This is a :class:`NamedNodeMap` giving the definitions of notations. For
+ notation names defined more than once, only the first definition is provided
+ (others are ignored as required by the XML recommendation). This may be
+ ``None`` if the information is not provided by the parser, or if no notations
+ are defined.
+
+
+.. _dom-document-objects:
+
+Document Objects
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+A :class:`Document` represents an entire XML document, including its constituent
+elements, attributes, processing instructions, comments etc. Remember that it
+inherits properties from :class:`Node`.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Document.documentElement
+
+ The one and only root element of the document.
+
+
+.. method:: Document.createElement(tagName)
+
+ Create and return a new element node. The element is not inserted into the
+ document when it is created. You need to explicitly insert it with one of the
+ other methods such as :meth:`insertBefore` or :meth:`appendChild`.
+
+
+.. method:: Document.createElementNS(namespaceURI, tagName)
+
+ Create and return a new element with a namespace. The *tagName* may have a
+ prefix. The element is not inserted into the document when it is created. You
+ need to explicitly insert it with one of the other methods such as
+ :meth:`insertBefore` or :meth:`appendChild`.
+
+
+.. method:: Document.createTextNode(data)
+
+ Create and return a text node containing the data passed as a parameter. As
+ with the other creation methods, this one does not insert the node into the
+ tree.
+
+
+.. method:: Document.createComment(data)
+
+ Create and return a comment node containing the data passed as a parameter. As
+ with the other creation methods, this one does not insert the node into the
+ tree.
+
+
+.. method:: Document.createProcessingInstruction(target, data)
+
+ Create and return a processing instruction node containing the *target* and
+ *data* passed as parameters. As with the other creation methods, this one does
+ not insert the node into the tree.
+
+
+.. method:: Document.createAttribute(name)
+
+ Create and return an attribute node. This method does not associate the
+ attribute node with any particular element. You must use
+ :meth:`setAttributeNode` on the appropriate :class:`Element` object to use the
+ newly created attribute instance.
+
+
+.. method:: Document.createAttributeNS(namespaceURI, qualifiedName)
+
+ Create and return an attribute node with a namespace. The *tagName* may have a
+ prefix. This method does not associate the attribute node with any particular
+ element. You must use :meth:`setAttributeNode` on the appropriate
+ :class:`Element` object to use the newly created attribute instance.
+
+
+.. method:: Document.getElementsByTagName(tagName)
+
+ Search for all descendants (direct children, children's children, etc.) with a
+ particular element type name.
+
+
+.. method:: Document.getElementsByTagNameNS(namespaceURI, localName)
+
+ Search for all descendants (direct children, children's children, etc.) with a
+ particular namespace URI and localname. The localname is the part of the
+ namespace after the prefix.
+
+
+.. _dom-element-objects:
+
+Element Objects
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+:class:`Element` is a subclass of :class:`Node`, so inherits all the attributes
+of that class.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Element.tagName
+
+ The element type name. In a namespace-using document it may have colons in it.
+ The value is a string.
+
+
+.. method:: Element.getElementsByTagName(tagName)
+
+ Same as equivalent method in the :class:`Document` class.
+
+
+.. method:: Element.getElementsByTagNameNS(namespaceURI, localName)
+
+ Same as equivalent method in the :class:`Document` class.
+
+
+.. method:: Element.hasAttribute(name)
+
+ Returns true if the element has an attribute named by *name*.
+
+
+.. method:: Element.hasAttributeNS(namespaceURI, localName)
+
+ Returns true if the element has an attribute named by *namespaceURI* and
+ *localName*.
+
+
+.. method:: Element.getAttribute(name)
+
+ Return the value of the attribute named by *name* as a string. If no such
+ attribute exists, an empty string is returned, as if the attribute had no value.
+
+
+.. method:: Element.getAttributeNode(attrname)
+
+ Return the :class:`Attr` node for the attribute named by *attrname*.
+
+
+.. method:: Element.getAttributeNS(namespaceURI, localName)
+
+ Return the value of the attribute named by *namespaceURI* and *localName* as a
+ string. If no such attribute exists, an empty string is returned, as if the
+ attribute had no value.
+
+
+.. method:: Element.getAttributeNodeNS(namespaceURI, localName)
+
+ Return an attribute value as a node, given a *namespaceURI* and *localName*.
+
+
+.. method:: Element.removeAttribute(name)
+
+ Remove an attribute by name. If there is no matching attribute, a
+ :exc:`NotFoundErr` is raised.
+
+
+.. method:: Element.removeAttributeNode(oldAttr)
+
+ Remove and return *oldAttr* from the attribute list, if present. If *oldAttr* is
+ not present, :exc:`NotFoundErr` is raised.
+
+
+.. method:: Element.removeAttributeNS(namespaceURI, localName)
+
+ Remove an attribute by name. Note that it uses a localName, not a qname. No
+ exception is raised if there is no matching attribute.
+
+
+.. method:: Element.setAttribute(name, value)
+
+ Set an attribute value from a string.
+
+
+.. method:: Element.setAttributeNode(newAttr)
+
+ Add a new attribute node to the element, replacing an existing attribute if
+ necessary if the :attr:`name` attribute matches. If a replacement occurs, the
+ old attribute node will be returned. If *newAttr* is already in use,
+ :exc:`InuseAttributeErr` will be raised.
+
+
+.. method:: Element.setAttributeNodeNS(newAttr)
+
+ Add a new attribute node to the element, replacing an existing attribute if
+ necessary if the :attr:`namespaceURI` and :attr:`localName` attributes match.
+ If a replacement occurs, the old attribute node will be returned. If *newAttr*
+ is already in use, :exc:`InuseAttributeErr` will be raised.
+
+
+.. method:: Element.setAttributeNS(namespaceURI, qname, value)
+
+ Set an attribute value from a string, given a *namespaceURI* and a *qname*.
+ Note that a qname is the whole attribute name. This is different than above.
+
+
+.. _dom-attr-objects:
+
+Attr Objects
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+:class:`Attr` inherits from :class:`Node`, so inherits all its attributes.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Attr.name
+
+ The attribute name.
+ In a namespace-using document it may include a colon.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Attr.localName
+
+ The part of the name following the colon if there is one, else the
+ entire name.
+ This is a read-only attribute.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Attr.prefix
+
+ The part of the name preceding the colon if there is one, else the
+ empty string.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Attr.value
+
+ The text value of the attribute. This is a synonym for the
+ :attr:`nodeValue` attribute.
+
+
+.. _dom-attributelist-objects:
+
+NamedNodeMap Objects
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+:class:`NamedNodeMap` does *not* inherit from :class:`Node`.
+
+
+.. attribute:: NamedNodeMap.length
+
+ The length of the attribute list.
+
+
+.. method:: NamedNodeMap.item(index)
+
+ Return an attribute with a particular index. The order you get the attributes
+ in is arbitrary but will be consistent for the life of a DOM. Each item is an
+ attribute node. Get its value with the :attr:`value` attribute.
+
+There are also experimental methods that give this class more mapping behavior.
+You can use them or you can use the standardized :meth:`getAttribute\*` family
+of methods on the :class:`Element` objects.
+
+
+.. _dom-comment-objects:
+
+Comment Objects
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+:class:`Comment` represents a comment in the XML document. It is a subclass of
+:class:`Node`, but cannot have child nodes.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Comment.data
+
+ The content of the comment as a string. The attribute contains all characters
+ between the leading ``<!-``\ ``-`` and trailing ``-``\ ``->``, but does not
+ include them.
+
+
+.. _dom-text-objects:
+
+Text and CDATASection Objects
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The :class:`Text` interface represents text in the XML document. If the parser
+and DOM implementation support the DOM's XML extension, portions of the text
+enclosed in CDATA marked sections are stored in :class:`CDATASection` objects.
+These two interfaces are identical, but provide different values for the
+:attr:`nodeType` attribute.
+
+These interfaces extend the :class:`Node` interface. They cannot have child
+nodes.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Text.data
+
+ The content of the text node as a string.
+
+.. note::
+
+ The use of a :class:`CDATASection` node does not indicate that the node
+ represents a complete CDATA marked section, only that the content of the node
+ was part of a CDATA section. A single CDATA section may be represented by more
+ than one node in the document tree. There is no way to determine whether two
+ adjacent :class:`CDATASection` nodes represent different CDATA marked sections.
+
+
+.. _dom-pi-objects:
+
+ProcessingInstruction Objects
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Represents a processing instruction in the XML document; this inherits from the
+:class:`Node` interface and cannot have child nodes.
+
+
+.. attribute:: ProcessingInstruction.target
+
+ The content of the processing instruction up to the first whitespace character.
+ This is a read-only attribute.
+
+
+.. attribute:: ProcessingInstruction.data
+
+ The content of the processing instruction following the first whitespace
+ character.
+
+
+.. _dom-exceptions:
+
+Exceptions
+^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.1
+
+The DOM Level 2 recommendation defines a single exception, :exc:`DOMException`,
+and a number of constants that allow applications to determine what sort of
+error occurred. :exc:`DOMException` instances carry a :attr:`code` attribute
+that provides the appropriate value for the specific exception.
+
+The Python DOM interface provides the constants, but also expands the set of
+exceptions so that a specific exception exists for each of the exception codes
+defined by the DOM. The implementations must raise the appropriate specific
+exception, each of which carries the appropriate value for the :attr:`code`
+attribute.
+
+
+.. exception:: DOMException
+
+ Base exception class used for all specific DOM exceptions. This exception class
+ cannot be directly instantiated.
+
+
+.. exception:: DomstringSizeErr
+
+ Raised when a specified range of text does not fit into a string. This is not
+ known to be used in the Python DOM implementations, but may be received from DOM
+ implementations not written in Python.
+
+
+.. exception:: HierarchyRequestErr
+
+ Raised when an attempt is made to insert a node where the node type is not
+ allowed.
+
+
+.. exception:: IndexSizeErr
+
+ Raised when an index or size parameter to a method is negative or exceeds the
+ allowed values.
+
+
+.. exception:: InuseAttributeErr
+
+ Raised when an attempt is made to insert an :class:`Attr` node that is already
+ present elsewhere in the document.
+
+
+.. exception:: InvalidAccessErr
+
+ Raised if a parameter or an operation is not supported on the underlying object.
+
+
+.. exception:: InvalidCharacterErr
+
+ This exception is raised when a string parameter contains a character that is
+ not permitted in the context it's being used in by the XML 1.0 recommendation.
+ For example, attempting to create an :class:`Element` node with a space in the
+ element type name will cause this error to be raised.
+
+
+.. exception:: InvalidModificationErr
+
+ Raised when an attempt is made to modify the type of a node.
+
+
+.. exception:: InvalidStateErr
+
+ Raised when an attempt is made to use an object that is not defined or is no
+ longer usable.
+
+
+.. exception:: NamespaceErr
+
+ If an attempt is made to change any object in a way that is not permitted with
+ regard to the `Namespaces in XML <http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml-names/>`_
+ recommendation, this exception is raised.
+
+
+.. exception:: NotFoundErr
+
+ Exception when a node does not exist in the referenced context. For example,
+ :meth:`NamedNodeMap.removeNamedItem` will raise this if the node passed in does
+ not exist in the map.
+
+
+.. exception:: NotSupportedErr
+
+ Raised when the implementation does not support the requested type of object or
+ operation.
+
+
+.. exception:: NoDataAllowedErr
+
+ This is raised if data is specified for a node which does not support data.
+
+ .. XXX a better explanation is needed!
+
+
+.. exception:: NoModificationAllowedErr
+
+ Raised on attempts to modify an object where modifications are not allowed (such
+ as for read-only nodes).
+
+
+.. exception:: SyntaxErr
+
+ Raised when an invalid or illegal string is specified.
+
+ .. XXX how is this different from InvalidCharacterErr?
+
+
+.. exception:: WrongDocumentErr
+
+ Raised when a node is inserted in a different document than it currently belongs
+ to, and the implementation does not support migrating the node from one document
+ to the other.
+
+The exception codes defined in the DOM recommendation map to the exceptions
+described above according to this table:
+
++--------------------------------------+---------------------------------+
+| Constant | Exception |
++======================================+=================================+
+| :const:`DOMSTRING_SIZE_ERR` | :exc:`DomstringSizeErr` |
++--------------------------------------+---------------------------------+

+.. _dom-conformance:
+
+Conformance
+-----------
+
+This section describes the conformance requirements and relationships between
+the Python DOM API, the W3C DOM recommendations, and the OMG IDL mapping for
+Python.
+
+
+.. _dom-type-mapping:
+
+Type Mapping
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The primitive IDL types used in the DOM specification are mapped to Python types
+according to the following table.
+
++------------------+-------------------------------------------+
+| IDL Type | Python Type |
++==================+===========================================+
+| ``boolean`` | ``IntegerType`` (with a value of ``0`` or |
+| | ``1``) |
++------------------+-------------------------------------------+
+| ``int`` | ``IntegerType`` |
++------------------+-------------------------------------------+
+| ``long int`` | ``IntegerType`` |
++------------------+-------------------------------------------+
+| ``unsigned int`` | ``IntegerType`` |
++------------------+-------------------------------------------+
+
+Additionally, the :class:`DOMString` defined in the recommendation is mapped to
+a Python string or Unicode string. Applications should be able to handle
+Unicode whenever a string is returned from the DOM.
+
+The IDL ``null`` value is mapped to ``None``, which may be accepted or
+provided by the implementation whenever ``null`` is allowed by the API.
+
+
+.. _dom-accessor-methods:
+
+Accessor Methods
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The mapping from OMG IDL to Python defines accessor functions for IDL
+``attribute`` declarations in much the way the Java mapping does.
+Mapping the IDL declarations ::
+
+ readonly attribute string someValue;
+ attribute string anotherValue;
+
+yields three accessor functions: a "get" method for :attr:`someValue`
+(:meth:`_get_someValue`), and "get" and "set" methods for :attr:`anotherValue`
+(:meth:`_get_anotherValue` and :meth:`_set_anotherValue`). The mapping, in
+particular, does not require that the IDL attributes are accessible as normal
+Python attributes: ``object.someValue`` is *not* required to work, and may
+raise an :exc:`AttributeError`.
+
+The Python DOM API, however, *does* require that normal attribute access work.
+This means that the typical surrogates generated by Python IDL compilers are not
+likely to work, and wrapper objects may be needed on the client if the DOM
+objects are accessed via CORBA. While this does require some additional
+consideration for CORBA DOM clients, the implementers with experience using DOM
+over CORBA from Python do not consider this a problem. Attributes that are
+declared ``readonly`` may not restrict write access in all DOM
+implementations.
+
+In the Python DOM API, accessor functions are not required. If provided, they
+should take the form defined by the Python IDL mapping, but these methods are
+considered unnecessary since the attributes are accessible directly from Python.
+"Set" accessors should never be provided for ``readonly`` attributes.
+
+The IDL definitions do not fully embody the requirements of the W3C DOM API,
+such as the notion of certain objects, such as the return value of
+:meth:`getElementsByTagName`, being "live". The Python DOM API does not require
+implementations to enforce such requirements.

+:mod:`xml.etree.ElementTree` --- The ElementTree XML API
+========================================================
+
+.. module:: xml.etree.ElementTree
+ :synopsis: Implementation of the ElementTree API.
+.. moduleauthor:: Fredrik Lundh <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/xml/etree/ElementTree.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The :class:`Element` type is a flexible container object, designed to store
+hierarchical data structures in memory. The type can be described as a cross
+between a list and a dictionary.
+
+
+.. warning::
+
+ The :mod:`xml.etree.ElementTree` module is not secure against
+ maliciously constructed data. If you need to parse untrusted or
+ unauthenticated data see :ref:`xml-vulnerabilities`.
+
+
+Each element has a number of properties associated with it:
+
+* a tag which is a string identifying what kind of data this element represents
+ (the element type, in other words).
+
+* a number of attributes, stored in a Python dictionary.
+
+* a text string.
+
+* an optional tail string.
+
+* a number of child elements, stored in a Python sequence
+
+To create an element instance, use the :class:`Element` constructor or the
+:func:`SubElement` factory function.
+
+The :class:`ElementTree` class can be used to wrap an element structure, and
+convert it from and to XML.
+
+A C implementation of this API is available as :mod:`xml.etree.cElementTree`.
+
+See http://effbot.org/zone/element-index.htm for tutorials and links to other
+docs. Fredrik Lundh's page is also the location of the development version of
+the xml.etree.ElementTree.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ The ElementTree API is updated to 1.3. For more information, see
+ `Introducing ElementTree 1.3
+ <http://effbot.org/zone/elementtree-13-intro.htm>`_.
+
+Tutorial
+--------
+
+This is a short tutorial for using :mod:`xml.etree.ElementTree` (``ET`` in
+short). The goal is to demonstrate some of the building blocks and basic
+concepts of the module.
+
+XML tree and elements
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+XML is an inherently hierarchical data format, and the most natural way to
+represent it is with a tree. ``ET`` has two classes for this purpose -
+:class:`ElementTree` represents the whole XML document as a tree, and
+:class:`Element` represents a single node in this tree. Interactions with
+the whole document (reading and writing to/from files) are usually done
+on the :class:`ElementTree` level. Interactions with a single XML element
+and its sub-elements are done on the :class:`Element` level.
+
+.. _elementtree-parsing-xml:
+
+Parsing XML
+^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+We'll be using the following XML document as the sample data for this section:
+
+.. code-block:: xml
+
+ <?xml version="1.0"?>
+ <data>
+ <country name="Liechtenstein">
+ <rank>1</rank>
+ <year>2008</year>
+ <gdppc>141100</gdppc>
+ <neighbor name="Austria" direction="E"/>
+ <neighbor name="Switzerland" direction="W"/>
+ </country>
+ <country name="Singapore">
+ <rank>4</rank>
+ <year>2011</year>
+ <gdppc>59900</gdppc>
+ <neighbor name="Malaysia" direction="N"/>
+ </country>
+ <country name="Panama">
+ <rank>68</rank>
+ <year>2011</year>
+ <gdppc>13600</gdppc>
+ <neighbor name="Costa Rica" direction="W"/>
+ <neighbor name="Colombia" direction="E"/>
+ </country>
+ </data>
+
+We have a number of ways to import the data. Reading the file from disk::
+
+ import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET
+ tree = ET.parse('country_data.xml')
+ root = tree.getroot()
+
+Reading the data from a string::
+
+ root = ET.fromstring(country_data_as_string)
+
+:func:`fromstring` parses XML from a string directly into an :class:`Element`,
+which is the root element of the parsed tree. Other parsing functions may
+create an :class:`ElementTree`. Check the documentation to be sure.
+
+As an :class:`Element`, ``root`` has a tag and a dictionary of attributes::
+
+ >>> root.tag
+ 'data'
+ >>> root.attrib
+ {}
+
+It also has children nodes over which we can iterate::
+
+ >>> for child in root:
+ ... print child.tag, child.attrib
+ ...
+ country {'name': 'Liechtenstein'}
+ country {'name': 'Singapore'}
+ country {'name': 'Panama'}
+
+Children are nested, and we can access specific child nodes by index::
+
+ >>> root[0][1].text
+ '2008'
+
+Finding interesting elements
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+:class:`Element` has some useful methods that help iterate recursively over all
+the sub-tree below it (its children, their children, and so on). For example,
+:meth:`Element.iter`::
+
+ >>> for neighbor in root.iter('neighbor'):
+ ... print neighbor.attrib
+ ...
+ {'name': 'Austria', 'direction': 'E'}
+ {'name': 'Switzerland', 'direction': 'W'}
+ {'name': 'Malaysia', 'direction': 'N'}
+ {'name': 'Costa Rica', 'direction': 'W'}
+ {'name': 'Colombia', 'direction': 'E'}
+
+:meth:`Element.findall` finds only elements with a tag which are direct
+children of the current element. :meth:`Element.find` finds the *first* child
+with a particular tag, and :meth:`Element.text` accesses the element's text
+content. :meth:`Element.get` accesses the element's attributes::
+
+ >>> for country in root.findall('country'):
+ ... rank = country.find('rank').text
+ ... name = country.get('name')
+ ... print name, rank
+ ...
+ Liechtenstein 1
+ Singapore 4
+ Panama 68
+
+More sophisticated specification of which elements to look for is possible by
+using :ref:`XPath <elementtree-xpath>`.
+
+Modifying an XML File
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+:class:`ElementTree` provides a simple way to build XML documents and write them to files.
+The :meth:`ElementTree.write` method serves this purpose.
+
+Once created, an :class:`Element` object may be manipulated by directly changing
+its fields (such as :attr:`Element.text`), adding and modifying attributes
+(:meth:`Element.set` method), as well as adding new children (for example
+with :meth:`Element.append`).
+
+Let's say we want to add one to each country's rank, and add an ``updated``
+attribute to the rank element::
+
+ >>> for rank in root.iter('rank'):
+ ... new_rank = int(rank.text) + 1
+ ... rank.text = str(new_rank)
+ ... rank.set('updated', 'yes')
+ ...
+ >>> tree.write('output.xml')
+
+Our XML now looks like this:
+
+.. code-block:: xml
+
+ <?xml version="1.0"?>
+ <data>
+ <country name="Liechtenstein">
+ <rank updated="yes">2</rank>
+ <year>2008</year>
+ <gdppc>141100</gdppc>
+ <neighbor name="Austria" direction="E"/>
+ <neighbor name="Switzerland" direction="W"/>
+ </country>
+ <country name="Singapore">
+ <rank updated="yes">5</rank>
+ <year>2011</year>
+ <gdppc>59900</gdppc>
+ <neighbor name="Malaysia" direction="N"/>
+ </country>
+ <country name="Panama">
+ <rank updated="yes">69</rank>
+ <year>2011</year>
+ <gdppc>13600</gdppc>
+ <neighbor name="Costa Rica" direction="W"/>
+ <neighbor name="Colombia" direction="E"/>
+ </country>
+ </data>
+
+We can remove elements using :meth:`Element.remove`. Let's say we want to
+remove all countries with a rank higher than 50::
+
+ >>> for country in root.findall('country'):
+ ... rank = int(country.find('rank').text)
+ ... if rank > 50:
+ ... root.remove(country)
+ ...
+ >>> tree.write('output.xml')
+
+Our XML now looks like this:
+
+.. code-block:: xml
+
+ <?xml version="1.0"?>
+ <data>
+ <country name="Liechtenstein">
+ <rank updated="yes">2</rank>
+ <year>2008</year>
+ <gdppc>141100</gdppc>
+ <neighbor name="Austria" direction="E"/>
+ <neighbor name="Switzerland" direction="W"/>
+ </country>
+ <country name="Singapore">
+ <rank updated="yes">5</rank>
+ <year>2011</year>
+ <gdppc>59900</gdppc>
+ <neighbor name="Malaysia" direction="N"/>
+ </country>
+ </data>
+
+Building XML documents
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The :func:`SubElement` function also provides a convenient way to create new
+sub-elements for a given element::
+
+ >>> a = ET.Element('a')
+ >>> b = ET.SubElement(a, 'b')
+ >>> c = ET.SubElement(a, 'c')
+ >>> d = ET.SubElement(c, 'd')
+ >>> ET.dump(a)
+ <a><b /><c><d /></c></a>
+
+Additional resources
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+See http://effbot.org/zone/element-index.htm for tutorials and links to other
+docs.
+
+.. _elementtree-xpath:
+
+XPath support
+-------------
+
+This module provides limited support for
+`XPath expressions <http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath>`_ for locating elements in a
+tree. The goal is to support a small subset of the abbreviated syntax; a full
+XPath engine is outside the scope of the module.
+
+Example
+^^^^^^^
+
+Here's an example that demonstrates some of the XPath capabilities of the
+module. We'll be using the ``countrydata`` XML document from the
+:ref:`Parsing XML <elementtree-parsing-xml>` section::
+
+ import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET
+
+ root = ET.fromstring(countrydata)
+
+ # Top-level elements
+ root.findall(".")
+
+ # All 'neighbor' grand-children of 'country' children of the top-level
+ # elements
+ root.findall("./country/neighbor")
+
+ # Nodes with name='Singapore' that have a 'year' child
+ root.findall(".//year/..[@name='Singapore']")
+
+ # 'year' nodes that are children of nodes with name='Singapore'
+ root.findall(".//*[@name='Singapore']/year")
+
+ # All 'neighbor' nodes that are the second child of their parent
+ root.findall(".//neighbor[2]")
+
+Supported XPath syntax
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. tabularcolumns:: |l|L|
+
++-----------------------+------------------------------------------------------+
+| Syntax | Meaning |
++=======================+======================================================+
+| ``tag`` | Selects all child elements with the given tag. |
+| | For example, ``spam`` selects all child elements |
+| | named ``spam``, ``spam/egg`` selects all |
+| | grandchildren named ``egg`` in all children named |
+| | ``spam``. |
++-----------------------+------------------------------------------------------+
+| ``*`` | Selects all child elements. For example, ``*/egg`` |
+| | selects all grandchildren named ``egg``. |
++-----------------------+------------------------------------------------------+
+| ``.`` | Selects the current node. This is mostly useful |
+| | at the beginning of the path, to indicate that it's |
+| | a relative path. |
++-----------------------+------------------------------------------------------+
+| ``//`` | Selects all subelements, on all levels beneath the |
+| | current element. For example, ``.//egg`` selects |
+| | all ``egg`` elements in the entire tree. |
++-----------------------+------------------------------------------------------+
+| ``..`` | Selects the parent element. |
++-----------------------+------------------------------------------------------+
+| ``[@attrib]`` | Selects all elements that have the given attribute. |
++-----------------------+------------------------------------------------------+
+| ``[@attrib='value']`` | Selects all elements for which the given attribute |
+| | has the given value. The value cannot contain |
+| | quotes. |
++-----------------------+------------------------------------------------------+
+| ``[tag]`` | Selects all elements that have a child named |
+| | ``tag``. Only immediate children are supported. |
++-----------------------+------------------------------------------------------+
+| ``[position]`` | Selects all elements that are located at the given |
+| | position. The position can be either an integer |
+| | (1 is the first position), the expression ``last()`` |
+| | (for the last position), or a position relative to |
+| | the last position (e.g. ``last()-1``). |
++-----------------------+------------------------------------------------------+
+
+Predicates (expressions within square brackets) must be preceded by a tag
+name, an asterisk, or another predicate. ``position`` predicates must be
+preceded by a tag name.
+
+Reference
+---------
+
+.. _elementtree-functions:
+
+Functions
+^^^^^^^^^
+
+
+.. function:: Comment(text=None)
+
+ Comment element factory. This factory function creates a special element
+ that will be serialized as an XML comment by the standard serializer. The
+ comment string can be either a bytestring or a Unicode string. *text* is a
+ string containing the comment string. Returns an element instance
+ representing a comment.
+
+
+.. function:: dump(elem)
+
+ Writes an element tree or element structure to sys.stdout. This function
+ should be used for debugging only.
+
+ The exact output format is implementation dependent. In this version, it's
+ written as an ordinary XML file.
+
+ *elem* is an element tree or an individual element.
+
+
+.. function:: fromstring(text)
+
+ Parses an XML section from a string constant. Same as :func:`XML`. *text*
+ is a string containing XML data. Returns an :class:`Element` instance.
+
+
+.. function:: fromstringlist(sequence, parser=None)
+
+ Parses an XML document from a sequence of string fragments. *sequence* is a
+ list or other sequence containing XML data fragments. *parser* is an
+ optional parser instance. If not given, the standard :class:`XMLParser`
+ parser is used. Returns an :class:`Element` instance.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+.. function:: iselement(element)
+
+ Checks if an object appears to be a valid element object. *element* is an
+ element instance. Returns a true value if this is an element object.
+
+
+.. function:: iterparse(source, events=None, parser=None)
+
+ Parses an XML section into an element tree incrementally, and reports what's
+ going on to the user. *source* is a filename or file object containing XML
+ data. *events* is a list of events to report back. If omitted, only "end"
+ events are reported. *parser* is an optional parser instance. If not
+ given, the standard :class:`XMLParser` parser is used. *parser* is not
+ supported by ``cElementTree``. Returns an :term:`iterator` providing
+ ``(event, elem)`` pairs.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ :func:`iterparse` only guarantees that it has seen the ">"
+ character of a starting tag when it emits a "start" event, so the
+ attributes are defined, but the contents of the text and tail attributes
+ are undefined at that point. The same applies to the element children;
+ they may or may not be present.
+
+ If you need a fully populated element, look for "end" events instead.
+
+
+.. function:: parse(source, parser=None)
+
+ Parses an XML section into an element tree. *source* is a filename or file
+ object containing XML data. *parser* is an optional parser instance. If
+ not given, the standard :class:`XMLParser` parser is used. Returns an
+ :class:`ElementTree` instance.
+
+
+.. function:: ProcessingInstruction(target, text=None)
+
+ PI element factory. This factory function creates a special element that
+ will be serialized as an XML processing instruction. *target* is a string
+ containing the PI target. *text* is a string containing the PI contents, if
+ given. Returns an element instance, representing a processing instruction.
+
+
+.. function:: register_namespace(prefix, uri)
+
+ Registers a namespace prefix. The registry is global, and any existing
+ mapping for either the given prefix or the namespace URI will be removed.
+ *prefix* is a namespace prefix. *uri* is a namespace uri. Tags and
+ attributes in this namespace will be serialized with the given prefix, if at
+ all possible.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+.. function:: SubElement(parent, tag, attrib={}, **extra)
+
+ Subelement factory. This function creates an element instance, and appends
+ it to an existing element.
+
+ The element name, attribute names, and attribute values can be either
+ bytestrings or Unicode strings. *parent* is the parent element. *tag* is
+ the subelement name. *attrib* is an optional dictionary, containing element
+ attributes. *extra* contains additional attributes, given as keyword
+ arguments. Returns an element instance.
+
+
+.. function:: tostring(element, encoding="us-ascii", method="xml")
+
+ Generates a string representation of an XML element, including all
+ subelements. *element* is an :class:`Element` instance. *encoding* [1]_ is
+ the output encoding (default is US-ASCII). *method* is either ``"xml"``,
+ ``"html"`` or ``"text"`` (default is ``"xml"``). Returns an encoded string
+ containing the XML data.
+
+
+.. function:: tostringlist(element, encoding="us-ascii", method="xml")
+
+ Generates a string representation of an XML element, including all
+ subelements. *element* is an :class:`Element` instance. *encoding* [1]_ is
+ the output encoding (default is US-ASCII). *method* is either ``"xml"``,
+ ``"html"`` or ``"text"`` (default is ``"xml"``). Returns a list of encoded
+ strings containing the XML data. It does not guarantee any specific
+ sequence, except that ``"".join(tostringlist(element)) ==
+ tostring(element)``.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+.. function:: XML(text, parser=None)
+
+ Parses an XML section from a string constant. This function can be used to
+ embed "XML literals" in Python code. *text* is a string containing XML
+ data. *parser* is an optional parser instance. If not given, the standard
+ :class:`XMLParser` parser is used. Returns an :class:`Element` instance.
+
+
+.. function:: XMLID(text, parser=None)
+
+ Parses an XML section from a string constant, and also returns a dictionary
+ which maps from element id:s to elements. *text* is a string containing XML
+ data. *parser* is an optional parser instance. If not given, the standard
+ :class:`XMLParser` parser is used. Returns a tuple containing an
+ :class:`Element` instance and a dictionary.
+
+
+.. _elementtree-element-objects:
+
+Element Objects
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. class:: Element(tag, attrib={}, **extra)
+
+ Element class. This class defines the Element interface, and provides a
+ reference implementation of this interface.
+
+ The element name, attribute names, and attribute values can be either
+ bytestrings or Unicode strings. *tag* is the element name. *attrib* is
+ an optional dictionary, containing element attributes. *extra* contains
+ additional attributes, given as keyword arguments.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: tag
+
+ A string identifying what kind of data this element represents (the
+ element type, in other words).
+
+
+ .. attribute:: text
+
+ The *text* attribute can be used to hold additional data associated with
+ the element. As the name implies this attribute is usually a string but
+ may be any application-specific object. If the element is created from
+ an XML file the attribute will contain any text found between the element
+ tags.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: tail
+
+ The *tail* attribute can be used to hold additional data associated with
+ the element. This attribute is usually a string but may be any
+ application-specific object. If the element is created from an XML file
+ the attribute will contain any text found after the element's end tag and
+ before the next tag.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: attrib
+
+ A dictionary containing the element's attributes. Note that while the
+ *attrib* value is always a real mutable Python dictionary, an ElementTree
+ implementation may choose to use another internal representation, and
+ create the dictionary only if someone asks for it. To take advantage of
+ such implementations, use the dictionary methods below whenever possible.
+
+ The following dictionary-like methods work on the element attributes.
+
+
+ .. method:: clear()
+
+ Resets an element. This function removes all subelements, clears all
+ attributes, and sets the text and tail attributes to None.
+
+
+ .. method:: get(key, default=None)
+
+ Gets the element attribute named *key*.
+
+ Returns the attribute value, or *default* if the attribute was not found.
+
+
+ .. method:: items()
+
+ Returns the element attributes as a sequence of (name, value) pairs. The
+ attributes are returned in an arbitrary order.
+
+
+ .. method:: keys()
+
+ Returns the elements attribute names as a list. The names are returned
+ in an arbitrary order.
+
+
+ .. method:: set(key, value)
+
+ Set the attribute *key* on the element to *value*.
+
+ The following methods work on the element's children (subelements).
+
+
+ .. method:: append(subelement)
+
+ Adds the element *subelement* to the end of this elements internal list
+ of subelements.
+
+
+ .. method:: extend(subelements)
+
+ Appends *subelements* from a sequence object with zero or more elements.
+ Raises :exc:`AssertionError` if a subelement is not a valid object.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+ .. method:: find(match)
+
+ Finds the first subelement matching *match*. *match* may be a tag name
+ or path. Returns an element instance or ``None``.
+
+
+ .. method:: findall(match)
+
+ Finds all matching subelements, by tag name or path. Returns a list
+ containing all matching elements in document order.
+
+
+ .. method:: findtext(match, default=None)
+
+ Finds text for the first subelement matching *match*. *match* may be
+ a tag name or path. Returns the text content of the first matching
+ element, or *default* if no element was found. Note that if the matching
+ element has no text content an empty string is returned.
+
+
+ .. method:: getchildren()
+
+ .. deprecated:: 2.7
+ Use ``list(elem)`` or iteration.
+
+
+ .. method:: getiterator(tag=None)
+
+ .. deprecated:: 2.7
+ Use method :meth:`Element.iter` instead.
+
+
+ .. method:: insert(index, element)
+
+ Inserts a subelement at the given position in this element.
+
+
+ .. method:: iter(tag=None)
+
+ Creates a tree :term:`iterator` with the current element as the root.
+ The iterator iterates over this element and all elements below it, in
+ document (depth first) order. If *tag* is not ``None`` or ``'*'``, only
+ elements whose tag equals *tag* are returned from the iterator. If the
+ tree structure is modified during iteration, the result is undefined.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+ .. method:: iterfind(match)
+
+ Finds all matching subelements, by tag name or path. Returns an iterable
+ yielding all matching elements in document order.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+ .. method:: itertext()
+
+ Creates a text iterator. The iterator loops over this element and all
+ subelements, in document order, and returns all inner text.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+ .. method:: makeelement(tag, attrib)
+
+ Creates a new element object of the same type as this element. Do not
+ call this method, use the :func:`SubElement` factory function instead.
+
+
+ .. method:: remove(subelement)
+
+ Removes *subelement* from the element. Unlike the find\* methods this
+ method compares elements based on the instance identity, not on tag value
+ or contents.
+
+ :class:`Element` objects also support the following sequence type methods
+ for working with subelements: :meth:`__delitem__`, :meth:`__getitem__`,
+ :meth:`__setitem__`, :meth:`__len__`.
+
+ Caution: Elements with no subelements will test as ``False``. This behavior
+ will change in future versions. Use specific ``len(elem)`` or ``elem is
+ None`` test instead. ::
+
+ element = root.find('foo')
+
+ if not element: # careful!
+ print "element not found, or element has no subelements"
+
+ if element is None:
+ print "element not found"
+
+
+.. _elementtree-elementtree-objects:
+
+ElementTree Objects
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+
+.. class:: ElementTree(element=None, file=None)
+
+ ElementTree wrapper class. This class represents an entire element
+ hierarchy, and adds some extra support for serialization to and from
+ standard XML.
+
+ *element* is the root element. The tree is initialized with the contents
+ of the XML *file* if given.
+
+
+ .. method:: _setroot(element)
+
+ Replaces the root element for this tree. This discards the current
+ contents of the tree, and replaces it with the given element. Use with
+ care. *element* is an element instance.
+
+
+ .. method:: find(match)
+
+ Same as :meth:`Element.find`, starting at the root of the tree.
+
+
+ .. method:: findall(match)
+
+ Same as :meth:`Element.findall`, starting at the root of the tree.
+
+
+ .. method:: findtext(match, default=None)
+
+ Same as :meth:`Element.findtext`, starting at the root of the tree.
+
+
+ .. method:: getiterator(tag=None)
+
+ .. deprecated:: 2.7
+ Use method :meth:`ElementTree.iter` instead.
+
+
+ .. method:: getroot()
+
+ Returns the root element for this tree.
+
+
+ .. method:: iter(tag=None)
+
+ Creates and returns a tree iterator for the root element. The iterator
+ loops over all elements in this tree, in section order. *tag* is the tag
+ to look for (default is to return all elements)
+
+
+ .. method:: iterfind(match)
+
+ Finds all matching subelements, by tag name or path. Same as
+ getroot().iterfind(match). Returns an iterable yielding all matching
+ elements in document order.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+ .. method:: parse(source, parser=None)
+
+ Loads an external XML section into this element tree. *source* is a file
+ name or file object. *parser* is an optional parser instance. If not
+ given, the standard XMLParser parser is used. Returns the section
+ root element.
+
+
+ .. method:: write(file, encoding="us-ascii", xml_declaration=None, \
+ default_namespace=None, method="xml")
+
+ Writes the element tree to a file, as XML. *file* is a file name, or a
+ file object opened for writing. *encoding* [1]_ is the output encoding
+ (default is US-ASCII). *xml_declaration* controls if an XML declaration
+ should be added to the file. Use False for never, True for always, None
+ for only if not US-ASCII or UTF-8 (default is None). *default_namespace*
+ sets the default XML namespace (for "xmlns"). *method* is either
+ ``"xml"``, ``"html"`` or ``"text"`` (default is ``"xml"``). Returns an
+ encoded string.
+
+This is the XML file that is going to be manipulated::
+
+ <html>
+ <head>
+ <title>Example page</title>
+ </head>
+ <body>
+ <p>Moved to <a href="http://example.org/">example.org</a>
+ or <a href="http://example.com/">example.com</a>.</p>
+ </body>
+ </html>
+
+Example of changing the attribute "target" of every link in first paragraph::
+
+ >>> from xml.etree.ElementTree import ElementTree
+ >>> tree = ElementTree()
+ >>> tree.parse("index.xhtml")
+ <Element 'html' at 0xb77e6fac>
+ >>> p = tree.find("body/p") # Finds first occurrence of tag p in body
+ >>> p
+ <Element 'p' at 0xb77ec26c>
+ >>> links = list(p.iter("a")) # Returns list of all links
+ >>> links
+ [<Element 'a' at 0xb77ec2ac>, <Element 'a' at 0xb77ec1cc>]
+ >>> for i in links: # Iterates through all found links
+ ... i.attrib["target"] = "blank"
+ >>> tree.write("output.xhtml")
+
+.. _elementtree-qname-objects:
+
+QName Objects
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+
+.. class:: QName(text_or_uri, tag=None)
+
+ QName wrapper. This can be used to wrap a QName attribute value, in order
+ to get proper namespace handling on output. *text_or_uri* is a string
+ containing the QName value, in the form {uri}local, or, if the tag argument
+ is given, the URI part of a QName. If *tag* is given, the first argument is
+ interpreted as an URI, and this argument is interpreted as a local name.
+ :class:`QName` instances are opaque.
+
+
+.. _elementtree-treebuilder-objects:
+
+TreeBuilder Objects
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+
+.. class:: TreeBuilder(element_factory=None)
+
+ Generic element structure builder. This builder converts a sequence of
+ start, data, and end method calls to a well-formed element structure. You
+ can use this class to build an element structure using a custom XML parser,
+ or a parser for some other XML-like format. The *element_factory* is called
+ to create new :class:`Element` instances when given.
+
+
+ .. method:: close()
+
+ Flushes the builder buffers, and returns the toplevel document
+ element. Returns an :class:`Element` instance.
+
+
+ .. method:: data(data)
+
+ Adds text to the current element. *data* is a string. This should be
+ either a bytestring, or a Unicode string.
+
+
+ .. method:: end(tag)
+
+ Closes the current element. *tag* is the element name. Returns the
+ closed element.
+
+
+ .. method:: start(tag, attrs)
+
+ Opens a new element. *tag* is the element name. *attrs* is a dictionary
+ containing element attributes. Returns the opened element.
+
+
+ In addition, a custom :class:`TreeBuilder` object can provide the
+ following method:
+
+ .. method:: doctype(name, pubid, system)
+
+ Handles a doctype declaration. *name* is the doctype name. *pubid* is
+ the public identifier. *system* is the system identifier. This method
+ does not exist on the default :class:`TreeBuilder` class.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+.. _elementtree-xmlparser-objects:
+
+XMLParser Objects
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+
+.. class:: XMLParser(html=0, target=None, encoding=None)
+
+ :class:`Element` structure builder for XML source data, based on the expat
+ parser. *html* are predefined HTML entities. This flag is not supported by
+ the current implementation. *target* is the target object. If omitted, the
+ builder uses an instance of the standard TreeBuilder class. *encoding* [1]_
+ is optional. If given, the value overrides the encoding specified in the
+ XML file.
+
+
+ .. method:: close()
+
+ Finishes feeding data to the parser. Returns an element structure.
+
+
+ .. method:: doctype(name, pubid, system)
+
+ .. deprecated:: 2.7
+ Define the :meth:`TreeBuilder.doctype` method on a custom TreeBuilder
+ target.
+
+
+ .. method:: feed(data)
+
+ Feeds data to the parser. *data* is encoded data.
+
+:meth:`XMLParser.feed` calls *target*\'s :meth:`start` method
+for each opening tag, its :meth:`end` method for each closing tag,
+and data is processed by method :meth:`data`. :meth:`XMLParser.close`
+calls *target*\'s method :meth:`close`.
+:class:`XMLParser` can be used not only for building a tree structure.
+This is an example of counting the maximum depth of an XML file::
+
+ >>> from xml.etree.ElementTree import XMLParser
+ >>> class MaxDepth: # The target object of the parser
+ ... maxDepth = 0
+ ... depth = 0
+ ... def start(self, tag, attrib): # Called for each opening tag.
+ ... self.depth += 1
+ ... if self.depth > self.maxDepth:
+ ... self.maxDepth = self.depth
+ ... def end(self, tag): # Called for each closing tag.
+ ... self.depth -= 1
+ ... def data(self, data):
+ ... pass # We do not need to do anything with data.
+ ... def close(self): # Called when all data has been parsed.
+ ... return self.maxDepth
+ ...
+ >>> target = MaxDepth()
+ >>> parser = XMLParser(target=target)
+ >>> exampleXml = """
+ ... <a>
+ ... <b>
+ ... </b>
+ ... <b>
+ ... <c>
+ ... <d>
+ ... </d>
+ ... </c>
+ ... </b>
+ ... </a>"""
+ >>> parser.feed(exampleXml)

+Python's interfaces for processing XML are grouped in the ``xml`` package.
+
+.. warning::
+
+ The XML modules are not secure against erroneous or maliciously
+ constructed data. If you need to parse untrusted or unauthenticated data see
+ :ref:`xml-vulnerabilities`.
+
+It is important to note that modules in the :mod:`xml` package require that
+there be at least one SAX-compliant XML parser available. The Expat parser is
+included with Python, so the :mod:`xml.parsers.expat` module will always be
+available.
+
+The documentation for the :mod:`xml.dom` and :mod:`xml.sax` packages are the
+definition of the Python bindings for the DOM and SAX interfaces.
+
+The XML handling submodules are:
+
+* :mod:`xml.etree.ElementTree`: the ElementTree API, a simple and lightweight
+
+..
+
+* :mod:`xml.dom`: the DOM API definition
+* :mod:`xml.dom.minidom`: a lightweight DOM implementation

+
+XML vulnerabilities
+===================
+
+The XML processing modules are not secure against maliciously constructed data.
+An attacker can abuse vulnerabilities for e.g. denial of service attacks, to
+access local files, to generate network connections to other machines, or
+to or circumvent firewalls. The attacks on XML abuse unfamiliar features
+like inline `DTD`_ (document type definition) with entities.

+
+1. :mod:`xml.etree.ElementTree` doesn't expand external entities and raises a
+ ParserError when an entity occurs.
+2. :mod:`xml.dom.minidom` doesn't expand external entities and simply returns
+ the unexpanded entity verbatim.
+3. :mod:`xmlrpclib` doesn't expand external entities and omits them.
+
+
+billion laughs / exponential entity expansion
+ The `Billion Laughs`_ attack -- also known as exponential entity expansion --
+ uses multiple levels of nested entities. Each entity refers to another entity
+ several times, the final entity definition contains a small string. Eventually
+ the small string is expanded to several gigabytes. The exponential expansion
+ consumes lots of CPU time, too.
+
+quadratic blowup entity expansion
+ A quadratic blowup attack is similar to a `Billion Laughs`_ attack; it abuses
+ entity expansion, too. Instead of nested entities it repeats one large entity
+ with a couple of thousand chars over and over again. The attack isn't as
+ efficient as the exponential case but it avoids triggering countermeasures of
+ parsers against heavily nested entities.
+
+external entity expansion
+ Entity declarations can contain more than just text for replacement. They can
+ also point to external resources by public identifiers or system identifiers.
+ System identifiers are standard URIs or can refer to local files. The XML
+ parser retrieves the resource with e.g. HTTP or FTP requests and embeds the
+ content into the XML document.
+
+DTD retrieval
+ Some XML libraries like Python's mod:'xml.dom.pulldom' retrieve document type
+ definitions from remote or local locations. The feature has similar
+ implications as the external entity expansion issue.
+
+decompression bomb
+ The issue of decompression bombs (aka `ZIP bomb`_) apply to all XML libraries
+ that can parse compressed XML stream like gzipped HTTP streams or LZMA-ed
+ files. For an attacker it can reduce the amount of transmitted data by three
+ magnitudes or more.
+
+The documentation of `defusedxml`_ on PyPI has further information about
+all known attack vectors with examples and references.
+
+defused packages
+----------------
+
+These external packages are recommended for any code that parses
+untrusted XML data.
+
+`defusedxml`_ is a pure Python package with modified subclasses of all stdlib
+XML parsers that prevent any potentially malicious operation. The
+package also ships with example exploits and extended documentation on more
+XML exploits like xpath injection.
+
+`defusedexpat`_ provides a modified libexpat and patched replacement
+:mod:`pyexpat` extension module with countermeasures against entity expansion
+DoS attacks. Defusedexpat still allows a sane and configurable amount of entity
+expansions. The modifications will be merged into future releases of Python.
+
+The workarounds and modifications are not included in patch releases as they
+break backward compatibility. After all inline DTD and entity expansion are
+well-defined XML features.

+:mod:`xml.sax.handler` --- Base classes for SAX handlers
+========================================================
+
+.. module:: xml.sax.handler
+ :synopsis: Base classes for SAX event handlers.
+.. moduleauthor:: Lars Marius Garshol <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Martin v. Löwis <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+The SAX API defines four kinds of handlers: content handlers, DTD handlers,
+error handlers, and entity resolvers. Applications normally only need to
+implement those interfaces whose events they are interested in; they can
+implement the interfaces in a single object or in multiple objects. Handler
+implementations should inherit from the base classes provided in the module
+:mod:`xml.sax.handler`, so that all methods get default implementations.
+
+
+.. class:: ContentHandler
+
+ This is the main callback interface in SAX, and the one most important to
+ applications. The order of events in this interface mirrors the order of the
+ information in the document.
+
+
+.. class:: DTDHandler
+
+ Handle DTD events.
+
+ This interface specifies only those DTD events required for basic parsing
+ (unparsed entities and attributes).
+
+
+.. class:: EntityResolver
+
+ Basic interface for resolving entities. If you create an object implementing
+ this interface, then register the object with your Parser, the parser will call
+ the method in your object to resolve all external entities.
+
+
+.. class:: ErrorHandler
+
+ Interface used by the parser to present error and warning messages to the
+ application. The methods of this object control whether errors are immediately
+ converted to exceptions or are handled in some other way.
+
+In addition to these classes, :mod:`xml.sax.handler` provides symbolic constants
+for the feature and property names.
+
+
+.. data:: feature_namespaces

+
+
+.. _content-handler-objects:
+
+ContentHandler Objects
+----------------------
+
+Users are expected to subclass :class:`ContentHandler` to support their
+application. The following methods are called by the parser on the appropriate
+events in the input document:
+
+
+.. method:: ContentHandler.setDocumentLocator(locator)
+
+ Called by the parser to give the application a locator for locating the origin
+ of document events.
+
+ SAX parsers are strongly encouraged (though not absolutely required) to supply a
+ locator: if it does so, it must supply the locator to the application by
+ invoking this method before invoking any of the other methods in the
+ DocumentHandler interface.
+
+ The locator allows the application to determine the end position of any
+ document-related event, even if the parser is not reporting an error. Typically,
+ the application will use this information for reporting its own errors (such as
+ character content that does not match an application's business rules). The
+ information returned by the locator is probably not sufficient for use with a
+ search engine.
+
+ Note that the locator will return correct information only during the invocation
+ of the events in this interface. The application should not attempt to use it at
+ any other time.
+
+
+.. method:: ContentHandler.startDocument()
+
+ Receive notification of the beginning of a document.
+
+ The SAX parser will invoke this method only once, before any other methods in
+ this interface or in DTDHandler (except for :meth:`setDocumentLocator`).
+
+
+.. method:: ContentHandler.endDocument()
+
+ Receive notification of the end of a document.
+
+ The SAX parser will invoke this method only once, and it will be the last method
+ invoked during the parse. The parser shall not invoke this method until it has
+ either abandoned parsing (because of an unrecoverable error) or reached the end
+ of input.
+
+
+.. method:: ContentHandler.startPrefixMapping(prefix, uri)
+
+ Begin the scope of a prefix-URI Namespace mapping.
+
+ The information from this event is not necessary for normal Namespace
+ processing: the SAX XML reader will automatically replace prefixes for element
+ and attribute names when the ``feature_namespaces`` feature is enabled (the
+ default).
+
+ There are cases, however, when applications need to use prefixes in character
+ data or in attribute values, where they cannot safely be expanded automatically;
+ the :meth:`startPrefixMapping` and :meth:`endPrefixMapping` events supply the
+ information to the application to expand prefixes in those contexts itself, if
+ necessary.
+
+ .. XXX This is not really the default, is it? MvL
+
+ Note that :meth:`startPrefixMapping` and :meth:`endPrefixMapping` events are not
+ guaranteed to be properly nested relative to each-other: all
+ :meth:`startPrefixMapping` events will occur before the corresponding
+ :meth:`startElement` event, and all :meth:`endPrefixMapping` events will occur
+ after the corresponding :meth:`endElement` event, but their order is not
+ guaranteed.
+
+
+.. method:: ContentHandler.endPrefixMapping(prefix)
+
+ End the scope of a prefix-URI mapping.
+
+ See :meth:`startPrefixMapping` for details. This event will always occur after
+ the corresponding :meth:`endElement` event, but the order of
+ :meth:`endPrefixMapping` events is not otherwise guaranteed.
+
+
+.. method:: ContentHandler.startElement(name, attrs)
+
+ Signals the start of an element in non-namespace mode.
+
+ The *name* parameter contains the raw XML 1.0 name of the element type as a
+ string and the *attrs* parameter holds an object of the :class:`Attributes`
+ interface (see :ref:`attributes-objects`) containing the attributes of
+ the element. The object passed as *attrs* may be re-used by the parser; holding
+ on to a reference to it is not a reliable way to keep a copy of the attributes.
+ To keep a copy of the attributes, use the :meth:`copy` method of the *attrs*
+ object.
+
+
+.. method:: ContentHandler.endElement(name)
+
+ Signals the end of an element in non-namespace mode.
+
+ The *name* parameter contains the name of the element type, just as with the
+ :meth:`startElement` event.
+
+
+.. method:: ContentHandler.startElementNS(name, qname, attrs)
+
+ Signals the start of an element in namespace mode.
+
+ The *name* parameter contains the name of the element type as a ``(uri,
+ localname)`` tuple, the *qname* parameter contains the raw XML 1.0 name used in
+ the source document, and the *attrs* parameter holds an instance of the
+ :class:`AttributesNS` interface (see :ref:`attributes-ns-objects`)
+ containing the attributes of the element. If no namespace is associated with
+ the element, the *uri* component of *name* will be ``None``. The object passed
+ as *attrs* may be re-used by the parser; holding on to a reference to it is not
+ a reliable way to keep a copy of the attributes. To keep a copy of the
+ attributes, use the :meth:`copy` method of the *attrs* object.
+
+ Parsers may set the *qname* parameter to ``None``, unless the
+ ``feature_namespace_prefixes`` feature is activated.
+
+
+.. method:: ContentHandler.endElementNS(name, qname)
+
+ Signals the end of an element in namespace mode.
+
+ The *name* parameter contains the name of the element type, just as with the
+ :meth:`startElementNS` method, likewise the *qname* parameter.
+
+
+.. method:: ContentHandler.characters(content)
+
+ Receive notification of character data.
+
+ The Parser will call this method to report each chunk of character data. SAX
+ parsers may return all contiguous character data in a single chunk, or they may
+ split it into several chunks; however, all of the characters in any single event
+ must come from the same external entity so that the Locator provides useful
+ information.
+
+ *content* may be a Unicode string or a byte string; the ``expat`` reader module
+ produces always Unicode strings.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ The earlier SAX 1 interface provided by the Python XML Special Interest Group
+ used a more Java-like interface for this method. Since most parsers used from
+ Python did not take advantage of the older interface, the simpler signature was
+ chosen to replace it. To convert old code to the new interface, use *content*
+ instead of slicing content with the old *offset* and *length* parameters.
+
+
+.. method:: ContentHandler.ignorableWhitespace(whitespace)
+
+ Receive notification of ignorable whitespace in element content.
+
+ Validating Parsers must use this method to report each chunk of ignorable
+ whitespace (see the W3C XML 1.0 recommendation, section 2.10): non-validating
+ parsers may also use this method if they are capable of parsing and using
+ content models.
+
+ SAX parsers may return all contiguous whitespace in a single chunk, or they may
+ split it into several chunks; however, all of the characters in any single event
+ must come from the same external entity, so that the Locator provides useful
+ information.
+
+
+.. method:: ContentHandler.processingInstruction(target, data)
+
+ Receive notification of a processing instruction.
+
+ The Parser will invoke this method once for each processing instruction found:
+ note that processing instructions may occur before or after the main document
+ element.
+
+ A SAX parser should never report an XML declaration (XML 1.0, section 2.8) or a
+ text declaration (XML 1.0, section 4.3.1) using this method.
+
+
+.. method:: ContentHandler.skippedEntity(name)
+
+ Receive notification of a skipped entity.
+
+ The Parser will invoke this method once for each entity skipped. Non-validating
+ processors may skip entities if they have not seen the declarations (because,
+ for example, the entity was declared in an external DTD subset). All processors
+ may skip external entities, depending on the values of the
+ ``feature_external_ges`` and the ``feature_external_pes`` properties.
+
+
+.. _dtd-handler-objects:
+
+DTDHandler Objects
+------------------
+
+:class:`DTDHandler` instances provide the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: DTDHandler.notationDecl(name, publicId, systemId)
+
+ Handle a notation declaration event.
+
+
+.. method:: DTDHandler.unparsedEntityDecl(name, publicId, systemId, ndata)
+
+ Handle an unparsed entity declaration event.
+
+
+.. _entity-resolver-objects:
+
+EntityResolver Objects
+----------------------
+
+
+.. method:: EntityResolver.resolveEntity(publicId, systemId)
+
+ Resolve the system identifier of an entity and return either the system
+ identifier to read from as a string, or an InputSource to read from. The default
+ implementation returns *systemId*.
+
+
+.. _sax-error-handler:
+
+ErrorHandler Objects
+--------------------
+
+Objects with this interface are used to receive error and warning information
+from the :class:`XMLReader`. If you create an object that implements this
+interface, then register the object with your :class:`XMLReader`, the parser
+will call the methods in your object to report all warnings and errors. There
+are three levels of errors available: warnings, (possibly) recoverable errors,
+and unrecoverable errors. All methods take a :exc:`SAXParseException` as the
+only parameter. Errors and warnings may be converted to an exception by raising
+the passed-in exception object.
+
+
+.. method:: ErrorHandler.error(exception)
+
+ Called when the parser encounters a recoverable error. If this method does not
+ raise an exception, parsing may continue, but further document information
+ should not be expected by the application. Allowing the parser to continue may
+ allow additional errors to be discovered in the input document.
+
+
+.. method:: ErrorHandler.fatalError(exception)
+
+ Called when the parser encounters an error it cannot recover from; parsing is
+ expected to terminate when this method returns.
+
+
+.. method:: ErrorHandler.warning(exception)
+
+ Called when the parser presents minor warning information to the application.
+ Parsing is expected to continue when this method returns, and document
+ information will continue to be passed to the application. Raising an exception
+ in this method will cause parsing to end.

+:mod:`xml.sax.xmlreader` --- Interface for XML parsers
+======================================================
+
+.. module:: xml.sax.xmlreader
+ :synopsis: Interface which SAX-compliant XML parsers must implement.
+.. moduleauthor:: Lars Marius Garshol <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Martin v. Löwis <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+SAX parsers implement the :class:`XMLReader` interface. They are implemented in
+a Python module, which must provide a function :func:`create_parser`. This
+function is invoked by :func:`xml.sax.make_parser` with no arguments to create
+a new parser object.
+
+
+.. class:: XMLReader()
+
+ Base class which can be inherited by SAX parsers.
+
+
+.. class:: IncrementalParser()
+
+ In some cases, it is desirable not to parse an input source at once, but to feed
+ chunks of the document as they get available. Note that the reader will normally
+ not read the entire file, but read it in chunks as well; still :meth:`parse`
+ won't return until the entire document is processed. So these interfaces should
+ be used if the blocking behaviour of :meth:`parse` is not desirable.
+
+ When the parser is instantiated it is ready to begin accepting data from the
+ feed method immediately. After parsing has been finished with a call to close
+ the reset method must be called to make the parser ready to accept new data,
+ either from feed or using the parse method.
+
+ Note that these methods must *not* be called during parsing, that is, after
+ parse has been called and before it returns.
+
+ By default, the class also implements the parse method of the XMLReader
+ interface using the feed, close and reset methods of the IncrementalParser
+ interface as a convenience to SAX 2.0 driver writers.
+
+
+.. class:: Locator()
+
+ Interface for associating a SAX event with a document location. A locator object
+ will return valid results only during calls to DocumentHandler methods; at any
+ other time, the results are unpredictable. If information is not available,
+ methods may return ``None``.
+
+
+.. class:: InputSource([systemId])
+
+ Encapsulation of the information needed by the :class:`XMLReader` to read
+ entities.
+
+ This class may include information about the public identifier, system
+ identifier, byte stream (possibly with character encoding information) and/or
+ the character stream of an entity.
+
+ Applications will create objects of this class for use in the
+ :meth:`XMLReader.parse` method and for returning from
+ EntityResolver.resolveEntity.
+
+ An :class:`InputSource` belongs to the application, the :class:`XMLReader` is
+ not allowed to modify :class:`InputSource` objects passed to it from the
+ application, although it may make copies and modify those.
+
+
+.. class:: AttributesImpl(attrs)
+
+ This is an implementation of the :class:`Attributes` interface (see section
+ :ref:`attributes-objects`). This is a dictionary-like object which
+ represents the element attributes in a :meth:`startElement` call. In addition
+ to the most useful dictionary operations, it supports a number of other
+ methods as described by the interface. Objects of this class should be
+ instantiated by readers; *attrs* must be a dictionary-like object containing
+ a mapping from attribute names to attribute values.
+
+
+.. class:: AttributesNSImpl(attrs, qnames)
+
+ Namespace-aware variant of :class:`AttributesImpl`, which will be passed to
+ :meth:`startElementNS`. It is derived from :class:`AttributesImpl`, but
+ understands attribute names as two-tuples of *namespaceURI* and
+ *localname*. In addition, it provides a number of methods expecting qualified
+ names as they appear in the original document. This class implements the
+ :class:`AttributesNS` interface (see section :ref:`attributes-ns-objects`).
+
+
+.. _xmlreader-objects:
+
+XMLReader Objects
+-----------------
+
+The :class:`XMLReader` interface supports the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: XMLReader.parse(source)
+
+ Process an input source, producing SAX events. The *source* object can be a
+ system identifier (a string identifying the input source -- typically a file
+ name or an URL), a file-like object, or an :class:`InputSource` object. When
+ :meth:`parse` returns, the input is completely processed, and the parser object
+ can be discarded or reset. As a limitation, the current implementation only
+ accepts byte streams; processing of character streams is for further study.
+
+
+.. method:: XMLReader.getContentHandler()
+
+ Return the current :class:`ContentHandler`.
+
+
+.. method:: XMLReader.setContentHandler(handler)
+
+ Set the current :class:`ContentHandler`. If no :class:`ContentHandler` is set,
+ content events will be discarded.
+
+
+.. method:: XMLReader.getDTDHandler()
+
+ Return the current :class:`DTDHandler`.
+
+
+.. method:: XMLReader.setDTDHandler(handler)
+
+ Set the current :class:`DTDHandler`. If no :class:`DTDHandler` is set, DTD
+ events will be discarded.
+
+
+.. method:: XMLReader.getEntityResolver()
+
+ Return the current :class:`EntityResolver`.
+
+
+.. method:: XMLReader.setEntityResolver(handler)
+
+ Set the current :class:`EntityResolver`. If no :class:`EntityResolver` is set,
+ attempts to resolve an external entity will result in opening the system
+ identifier for the entity, and fail if it is not available.
+
+
+.. method:: XMLReader.getErrorHandler()
+
+ Return the current :class:`ErrorHandler`.
+
+
+.. method:: XMLReader.setErrorHandler(handler)
+
+ Set the current error handler. If no :class:`ErrorHandler` is set, errors will
+ be raised as exceptions, and warnings will be printed.
+
+
+.. method:: XMLReader.setLocale(locale)
+
+ Allow an application to set the locale for errors and warnings.
+
+ SAX parsers are not required to provide localization for errors and warnings; if
+ they cannot support the requested locale, however, they must raise a SAX
+ exception. Applications may request a locale change in the middle of a parse.
+
+
+.. method:: XMLReader.getFeature(featurename)
+
+ Return the current setting for feature *featurename*. If the feature is not
+ recognized, :exc:`SAXNotRecognizedException` is raised. The well-known
+ featurenames are listed in the module :mod:`xml.sax.handler`.
+
+
+.. method:: XMLReader.setFeature(featurename, value)
+
+ Set the *featurename* to *value*. If the feature is not recognized,
+ :exc:`SAXNotRecognizedException` is raised. If the feature or its setting is not
+ supported by the parser, *SAXNotSupportedException* is raised.
+
+
+.. method:: XMLReader.getProperty(propertyname)
+
+ Return the current setting for property *propertyname*. If the property is not
+ recognized, a :exc:`SAXNotRecognizedException` is raised. The well-known
+ propertynames are listed in the module :mod:`xml.sax.handler`.
+
+
+.. method:: XMLReader.setProperty(propertyname, value)
+
+ Set the *propertyname* to *value*. If the property is not recognized,
+ :exc:`SAXNotRecognizedException` is raised. If the property or its setting is
+ not supported by the parser, *SAXNotSupportedException* is raised.
+
+
+.. _incremental-parser-objects:
+
+IncrementalParser Objects
+-------------------------
+
+Instances of :class:`IncrementalParser` offer the following additional methods:
+
+
+.. method:: IncrementalParser.feed(data)
+
+ Process a chunk of *data*.
+
+
+.. method:: IncrementalParser.close()
+
+ Assume the end of the document. That will check well-formedness conditions that
+ can be checked only at the end, invoke handlers, and may clean up resources
+ allocated during parsing.
+
+
+.. method:: IncrementalParser.reset()
+
+ This method is called after close has been called to reset the parser so that it
+ is ready to parse new documents. The results of calling parse or feed after
+ close without calling reset are undefined.
+
+
+.. _locator-objects:
+
+Locator Objects
+---------------
+
+Instances of :class:`Locator` provide these methods:
+
+
+.. method:: Locator.getColumnNumber()
+
+ Return the column number where the current event ends.
+
+
+.. method:: Locator.getLineNumber()
+
+ Return the line number where the current event ends.
+
+
+.. method:: Locator.getPublicId()
+
+ Return the public identifier for the current event.
+
+
+.. method:: Locator.getSystemId()
+
+ Return the system identifier for the current event.
+
+
+.. _input-source-objects:
+
+InputSource Objects
+-------------------
+
+
+.. method:: InputSource.setPublicId(id)
+
+ Sets the public identifier of this :class:`InputSource`.
+
+
+.. method:: InputSource.getPublicId()
+
+ Returns the public identifier of this :class:`InputSource`.
+
+
+.. method:: InputSource.setSystemId(id)
+
+ Sets the system identifier of this :class:`InputSource`.
+
+
+.. method:: InputSource.getSystemId()
+
+ Returns the system identifier of this :class:`InputSource`.
+
+
+.. method:: InputSource.setEncoding(encoding)
+
+ Sets the character encoding of this :class:`InputSource`.
+
+ The encoding must be a string acceptable for an XML encoding declaration (see
+ section 4.3.3 of the XML recommendation).
+
+ The encoding attribute of the :class:`InputSource` is ignored if the
+ :class:`InputSource` also contains a character stream.
+
+
+.. method:: InputSource.getEncoding()
+
+ Get the character encoding of this InputSource.
+
+
+.. method:: InputSource.setByteStream(bytefile)
+
+ Set the byte stream (a Python file-like object which does not perform
+ byte-to-character conversion) for this input source.
+
+ The SAX parser will ignore this if there is also a character stream specified,
+ but it will use a byte stream in preference to opening a URI connection itself.
+
+ If the application knows the character encoding of the byte stream, it should
+ set it with the setEncoding method.
+
+
+.. method:: InputSource.getByteStream()
+
+ Get the byte stream for this input source.
+
+ The getEncoding method will return the character encoding for this byte stream,
+ or None if unknown.
+
+
+.. method:: InputSource.setCharacterStream(charfile)
+
+ Set the character stream for this input source. (The stream must be a Python 1.6
+ Unicode-wrapped file-like that performs conversion to Unicode strings.)
+
+ If there is a character stream specified, the SAX parser will ignore any byte
+ stream and will not attempt to open a URI connection to the system identifier.
+
+
+.. method:: InputSource.getCharacterStream()
+
+ Get the character stream for this input source.
+
+
+.. _attributes-objects:
+
+The :class:`Attributes` Interface
+---------------------------------
+
+:class:`Attributes` objects implement a portion of the mapping protocol,
+including the methods :meth:`copy`, :meth:`get`, :meth:`has_key`, :meth:`items`,
+:meth:`keys`, and :meth:`values`. The following methods are also provided:
+
+
+.. method:: Attributes.getLength()
+
+ Return the number of attributes.
+
+
+.. method:: Attributes.getNames()
+
+ Return the names of the attributes.
+
+
+.. method:: Attributes.getType(name)
+
+ Returns the type of the attribute *name*, which is normally ``'CDATA'``.
+
+
+.. method:: Attributes.getValue(name)
+
+ Return the value of attribute *name*.
+
+.. getValueByQName, getNameByQName, getQNameByName, getQNames available
+.. here already, but documented only for derived class.
+
+
+.. _attributes-ns-objects:
+
+The :class:`AttributesNS` Interface
+-----------------------------------
+
+This interface is a subtype of the :class:`Attributes` interface (see section
+:ref:`attributes-objects`). All methods supported by that interface are also
+available on :class:`AttributesNS` objects.
+
+The following methods are also available:
+
+
+.. method:: AttributesNS.getValueByQName(name)
+
+ Return the value for a qualified name.
+
+
+.. method:: AttributesNS.getNameByQName(name)
+
+ Return the ``(namespace, localname)`` pair for a qualified *name*.
+
+
+.. method:: AttributesNS.getQNameByName(name)
+
+ Return the qualified name for a ``(namespace, localname)`` pair.
+
+
+.. method:: AttributesNS.getQNames()
+
+ Return the qualified names of all attributes.

+:mod:`xml.sax` --- Support for SAX2 parsers
+===========================================
+
+.. module:: xml.sax
+ :synopsis: Package containing SAX2 base classes and convenience functions.
+.. moduleauthor:: Lars Marius Garshol <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Fred L. Drake, Jr. <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Martin v. Löwis <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+The :mod:`xml.sax` package provides a number of modules which implement the
+Simple API for XML (SAX) interface for Python. The package itself provides the
+SAX exceptions and the convenience functions which will be most used by users of
+the SAX API.
+
+
+.. warning::
+
+ The :mod:`xml.sax` module is not secure against maliciously
+ constructed data. If you need to parse untrusted or unauthenticated data see
+ :ref:`xml-vulnerabilities`.
+
+
+The convenience functions are:
+
+
+.. function:: make_parser([parser_list])
+
+ Create and return a SAX :class:`XMLReader` object. The first parser found will
+ be used. If *parser_list* is provided, it must be a sequence of strings which
+ name modules that have a function named :func:`create_parser`. Modules listed
+ in *parser_list* will be used before modules in the default list of parsers.
+
+
+.. function:: parse(filename_or_stream, handler[, error_handler])
+
+ Create a SAX parser and use it to parse a document. The document, passed in as
+ *filename_or_stream*, can be a filename or a file object. The *handler*
+ parameter needs to be a SAX :class:`ContentHandler` instance. If
+ *error_handler* is given, it must be a SAX :class:`ErrorHandler` instance; if
+ omitted, :exc:`SAXParseException` will be raised on all errors. There is no
+ return value; all work must be done by the *handler* passed in.
+
+
+.. function:: parseString(string, handler[, error_handler])
+
+ Similar to :func:`parse`, but parses from a buffer *string* received as a
+ parameter.
+
+A typical SAX application uses three kinds of objects: readers, handlers and
+input sources. "Reader" in this context is another term for parser, i.e. some
+piece of code that reads the bytes or characters from the input source, and
+produces a sequence of events. The events then get distributed to the handler
+objects, i.e. the reader invokes a method on the handler. A SAX application
+must therefore obtain a reader object, create or open the input sources, create
+the handlers, and connect these objects all together. As the final step of
+preparation, the reader is called to parse the input. During parsing, methods on
+the handler objects are called based on structural and syntactic events from the
+input data.
+
+For these objects, only the interfaces are relevant; they are normally not
+instantiated by the application itself. Since Python does not have an explicit
+notion of interface, they are formally introduced as classes, but applications
+may use implementations which do not inherit from the provided classes. The
+:class:`InputSource`, :class:`Locator`, :class:`Attributes`,
+:class:`AttributesNS`, and :class:`XMLReader` interfaces are defined in the
+module :mod:`xml.sax.xmlreader`. The handler interfaces are defined in
+:mod:`xml.sax.handler`. For convenience, :class:`InputSource` (which is often
+instantiated directly) and the handler classes are also available from
+:mod:`xml.sax`. These interfaces are described below.
+
+In addition to these classes, :mod:`xml.sax` provides the following exception
+classes.
+
+
+.. exception:: SAXException(msg[, exception])
+
+ Encapsulate an XML error or warning. This class can contain basic error or
+ warning information from either the XML parser or the application: it can be
+ subclassed to provide additional functionality or to add localization. Note
+ that although the handlers defined in the :class:`ErrorHandler` interface
+ receive instances of this exception, it is not required to actually raise the
+ exception --- it is also useful as a container for information.
+
+ When instantiated, *msg* should be a human-readable description of the error.
+ The optional *exception* parameter, if given, should be ``None`` or an exception
+ that was caught by the parsing code and is being passed along as information.
+
+ This is the base class for the other SAX exception classes.
+
+
+.. exception:: SAXParseException(msg, exception, locator)
+
+ Subclass of :exc:`SAXException` raised on parse errors. Instances of this class
+ are passed to the methods of the SAX :class:`ErrorHandler` interface to provide
+ information about the parse error. This class supports the SAX :class:`Locator`
+ interface as well as the :class:`SAXException` interface.
+
+
+.. exception:: SAXNotRecognizedException(msg[, exception])
+
+ Subclass of :exc:`SAXException` raised when a SAX :class:`XMLReader` is
+ confronted with an unrecognized feature or property. SAX applications and
+ extensions may use this class for similar purposes.
+
+
+.. exception:: SAXNotSupportedException(msg[, exception])
+
+ Subclass of :exc:`SAXException` raised when a SAX :class:`XMLReader` is asked to
+ enable a feature that is not supported, or to set a property to a value that the
+ implementation does not support. SAX applications and extensions may use this
+ class for similar purposes.
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ `SAX: The Simple API for XML <http://www.saxproject.org/>`_
+ This site is the focal point for the definition of the SAX API. It provides a
+ Java implementation and online documentation. Links to implementations and
+ historical information are also available.
+
+ Module :mod:`xml.sax.handler`

+
+ Module :mod:`xml.sax.saxutils`
+ Convenience functions for use in SAX applications.
+
+ Module :mod:`xml.sax.xmlreader`
+ Definitions of the interfaces for parser-provided objects.
+
+

+
+SAXException Objects
+--------------------
+
+The :class:`SAXException` exception class supports the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: SAXException.getMessage()
+
+ Return a human-readable message describing the error condition.
+
+
+.. method:: SAXException.getException()
+
+ Return an encapsulated exception object, or ``None``.

+:mod:`xml.sax.saxutils` --- SAX Utilities
+=========================================
+
+.. module:: xml.sax.saxutils
+ :synopsis: Convenience functions and classes for use with SAX.
+.. moduleauthor:: Lars Marius Garshol <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Martin v. Löwis <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.0
+
+The module :mod:`xml.sax.saxutils` contains a number of classes and functions
+that are commonly useful when creating SAX applications, either in direct use,
+or as base classes.
+
+
+.. function:: escape(data[, entities])
+
+ Escape ``'&'``, ``'<'``, and ``'>'`` in a string of data.
+
+ You can escape other strings of data by passing a dictionary as the optional
+ *entities* parameter. The keys and values must all be strings; each key will be
+ replaced with its corresponding value. The characters ``'&'``, ``'<'`` and
+ ``'>'`` are always escaped, even if *entities* is provided.
+
+
+.. function:: unescape(data[, entities])
+
+ Unescape ``'&'``, ``'<'``, and ``'>'`` in a string of data.
+
+ You can unescape other strings of data by passing a dictionary as the optional
+ *entities* parameter. The keys and values must all be strings; each key will be
+ replaced with its corresponding value. ``'&'``, ``'<'``, and ``'>'``
+ are always unescaped, even if *entities* is provided.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. function:: quoteattr(data[, entities])
+
+ Similar to :func:`escape`, but also prepares *data* to be used as an
+ attribute value. The return value is a quoted version of *data* with any
+ additional required replacements. :func:`quoteattr` will select a quote
+ character based on the content of *data*, attempting to avoid encoding any
+ quote characters in the string. If both single- and double-quote characters
+ are already in *data*, the double-quote characters will be encoded and *data*
+ will be wrapped in double-quotes. The resulting string can be used directly
+ as an attribute value::
+
+ >>> print "<element attr=%s>" % quoteattr("ab ' cd \" ef")
+ <element attr="ab ' cd " ef">
+
+ This function is useful when generating attribute values for HTML or any SGML
+ using the reference concrete syntax.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+
+.. class:: XMLGenerator([out[, encoding]])
+
+ This class implements the :class:`ContentHandler` interface by writing SAX
+ events back into an XML document. In other words, using an :class:`XMLGenerator`
+ as the content handler will reproduce the original document being parsed. *out*
+ should be a file-like object which will default to *sys.stdout*. *encoding* is
+ the encoding of the output stream which defaults to ``'iso-8859-1'``.
+
+
+.. class:: XMLFilterBase(base)
+
+ This class is designed to sit between an :class:`XMLReader` and the client
+ application's event handlers. By default, it does nothing but pass requests up
+ to the reader and events on to the handlers unmodified, but subclasses can
+ override specific methods to modify the event stream or the configuration
+ requests as they pass through.
+
+
+.. function:: prepare_input_source(source[, base])
+
+ This function takes an input source and an optional base URL and returns a fully
+ resolved :class:`InputSource` object ready for reading. The input source can be
+ given as a string, a file-like object, or an :class:`InputSource` object;
+ parsers will use this function to implement the polymorphic *source* argument to
+ their :meth:`parse` method.

+ A mapping of element names to mappings. The latter mapping maps attribute
+ names that are valid for the element to the default value of the
+ attribute, or if there is no default to ``None``. The default value is
+ the empty dictionary. This variable is meant to be overridden, not
+ extended since the default is shared by all instances of
+ :class:`XMLParser`.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: elements
+
+ A mapping of element names to tuples. The tuples contain a function for
+ handling the start and end tag respectively of the element, or ``None`` if
+ the method :meth:`unknown_starttag` or :meth:`unknown_endtag` is to be
+ called. The default value is the empty dictionary. This variable is
+ meant to be overridden, not extended since the default is shared by all
+ instances of :class:`XMLParser`.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: entitydefs
+
+ A mapping of entitynames to their values. The default value contains
+ definitions for ``'lt'``, ``'gt'``, ``'amp'``, ``'quot'``, and ``'apos'``.
+
+
+ .. method:: reset()
+
+ Reset the instance. Loses all unprocessed data. This is called
+ implicitly at the instantiation time.
+
+
+ .. method:: setnomoretags()
+
+ Stop processing tags. Treat all following input as literal input (CDATA).
+
+
+ .. method:: setliteral()
+
+ Enter literal mode (CDATA mode). This mode is automatically exited when
+ the close tag matching the last unclosed open tag is encountered.
+
+
+ .. method:: feed(data)
+
+ Feed some text to the parser. It is processed insofar as it consists of
+ complete tags; incomplete data is buffered until more data is fed or
+ :meth:`close` is called.
+
+
+ .. method:: close()
+
+ Force processing of all buffered data as if it were followed by an
+ end-of-file mark. This method may be redefined by a derived class to
+ define additional processing at the end of the input, but the redefined
+ version should always call :meth:`close`.
+
+
+ .. method:: translate_references(data)
+
+ Translate all entity and character references in *data* and return the
+ translated string.
+
+
+ .. method:: getnamespace()
+
+ Return a mapping of namespace abbreviations to namespace URIs that are
+ currently in effect.
+
+
+ .. method:: handle_xml(encoding, standalone)
+
+ This method is called when the ``<?xml ...?>`` tag is processed. The
+ arguments are the values of the encoding and standalone attributes in the
+ tag. Both encoding and standalone are optional. The values passed to
+ :meth:`handle_xml` default to ``None`` and the string ``'no'``
+ respectively.
+
+
+ .. method:: handle_doctype(tag, pubid, syslit, data)
+
+ .. index::
+ single: DOCTYPE declaration
+ single: Formal Public Identifier
+
+ This method is called when the ``<!DOCTYPE...>`` declaration is processed.
+ The arguments are the tag name of the root element, the Formal Public
+ Identifier (or ``None`` if not specified), the system identifier, and the
+ uninterpreted contents of the internal DTD subset as a string (or ``None``
+ if not present).
+
+
+ .. method:: handle_starttag(tag, method, attributes)
+
+ This method is called to handle start tags for which a start tag handler
+ is defined in the instance variable :attr:`elements`. The *tag* argument
+ is the name of the tag, and the *method* argument is the function (method)
+ which should be used to support semantic interpretation of the start tag.
+ The *attributes* argument is a dictionary of attributes, the key being the
+ *name* and the value being the *value* of the attribute found inside the
+ tag's ``<>`` brackets. Character and entity references in the *value*
+ have been interpreted. For instance, for the start tag ``<A
+ HREF="http://www.cwi.nl/">``, this method would be called as
+ ``handle_starttag('A', self.elements['A'][0], {'HREF':
+ 'http://www.cwi.nl/'})``. The base implementation simply calls *method*
+ with *attributes* as the only argument.
+
+
+ .. method:: handle_endtag(tag, method)
+
+ This method is called to handle endtags for which an end tag handler is
+ defined in the instance variable :attr:`elements`. The *tag* argument is
+ the name of the tag, and the *method* argument is the function (method)
+ which should be used to support semantic interpretation of the end tag.
+ For instance, for the endtag ``</A>``, this method would be called as
+ ``handle_endtag('A', self.elements['A'][1])``. The base implementation
+ simply calls *method*.
+
+
+ .. method:: handle_data(data)
+
+ This method is called to process arbitrary data. It is intended to be
+ overridden by a derived class; the base class implementation does nothing.
+
+
+ .. method:: handle_charref(ref)
+
+ This method is called to process a character reference of the form
+ ``&#ref;``. *ref* can either be a decimal number, or a hexadecimal number
+ when preceded by an ``'x'``. In the base implementation, *ref* must be a
+ number in the range 0-255. It translates the character to ASCII and calls
+ the method :meth:`handle_data` with the character as argument. If *ref*
+ is invalid or out of range, the method ``unknown_charref(ref)`` is called
+ to handle the error. A subclass must override this method to provide
+ support for character references outside of the ASCII range.
+
+
+ .. method:: handle_comment(comment)
+
+ This method is called when a comment is encountered. The *comment*
+ argument is a string containing the text between the ``<!--`` and ``-->``
+ delimiters, but not the delimiters themselves. For example, the comment
+ ``<!--text-->`` will cause this method to be called with the argument
+ ``'text'``. The default method does nothing.
+
+
+ .. method:: handle_cdata(data)
+
+ This method is called when a CDATA element is encountered. The *data*
+ argument is a string containing the text between the ``<![CDATA[`` and
+ ``]]>`` delimiters, but not the delimiters themselves. For example, the
+ entity ``<![CDATA[text]]>`` will cause this method to be called with the
+ argument ``'text'``. The default method does nothing, and is intended to
+ be overridden.
+
+
+ .. method:: handle_proc(name, data)
+
+ This method is called when a processing instruction (PI) is encountered.
+ The *name* is the PI target, and the *data* argument is a string
+ containing the text between the PI target and the closing delimiter, but
+ not the delimiter itself. For example, the instruction ``<?XML text?>``
+ will cause this method to be called with the arguments ``'XML'`` and
+ ``'text'``. The default method does nothing. Note that if a document
+ starts with ``<?xml ..?>``, :meth:`handle_xml` is called to handle it.
+
+
+ .. method:: handle_special(data)
+
+ .. index:: single: ENTITY declaration
+
+ This method is called when a declaration is encountered. The *data*
+ argument is a string containing the text between the ``<!`` and ``>``
+ delimiters, but not the delimiters themselves. For example, the entity
+ declaration ``<!ENTITY text>`` will cause this method to be called with
+ the argument ``'ENTITY text'``. The default method does nothing. Note
+ that ``<!DOCTYPE ...>`` is handled separately if it is located at the
+ start of the document.
+
+
+ .. method:: syntax_error(message)
+
+ This method is called when a syntax error is encountered. The *message*
+ is a description of what was wrong. The default method raises a
+ :exc:`RuntimeError` exception. If this method is overridden, it is
+ permissible for it to return. This method is only called when the error
+ can be recovered from. Unrecoverable errors raise a :exc:`RuntimeError`
+ without first calling :meth:`syntax_error`.
+
+
+ .. method:: unknown_starttag(tag, attributes)
+
+ This method is called to process an unknown start tag. It is intended to
+ be overridden by a derived class; the base class implementation does nothing.
+
+
+ .. method:: unknown_endtag(tag)
+
+ This method is called to process an unknown end tag. It is intended to be
+ overridden by a derived class; the base class implementation does nothing.
+
+
+ .. method:: unknown_charref(ref)
+
+ This method is called to process unresolvable numeric character
+ references. It is intended to be overridden by a derived class; the base
+ class implementation does nothing.
+
+
+ .. method:: unknown_entityref(ref)
+
+ This method is called to process an unknown entity reference. It is
+ intended to be overridden by a derived class; the base class
+ implementation calls :meth:`syntax_error` to signal an error.

+
+XML Namespaces
+--------------
+
+.. index:: pair: XML; namespaces
+
+This module has support for XML namespaces as defined in the XML Namespaces
+proposed recommendation.
+
+Tag and attribute names that are defined in an XML namespace are handled as if
+the name of the tag or element consisted of the namespace (the URL that defines
+the namespace) followed by a space and the name of the tag or attribute. For
+instance, the tag ``<html xmlns='http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40'>`` is treated
+as if the tag name was ``'http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40 html'``, and the tag
+``<html:a href='http://frob.com'>`` inside the above mentioned element is
+treated as if the tag name were ``'http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40 a'`` and the
+attribute name as if it were ``'http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40 href'``.
+
+An older draft of the XML Namespaces proposal is also recognized, but triggers a
+warning.

+:mod:`xmlrpclib` --- XML-RPC client access
+==========================================
+
+.. module:: xmlrpclib
+ :synopsis: XML-RPC client access.
+.. moduleauthor:: Fredrik Lundh <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: Eric S. Raymond <[email protected]>
+
+.. note::
+ The :mod:`xmlrpclib` module has been renamed to :mod:`xmlrpc.client` in
+ Python 3. The :term:`2to3` tool will automatically adapt imports when
+ converting your sources to Python 3.
+
+
+.. XXX Not everything is documented yet. It might be good to describe
+ Marshaller, Unmarshaller, getparser, dumps, loads, and Transport.
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/xmlrpclib.py`
+
+--------------
+
+XML-RPC is a Remote Procedure Call method that uses XML passed via HTTP as a
+transport. With it, a client can call methods with parameters on a remote
+server (the server is named by a URI) and get back structured data. This module
+supports writing XML-RPC client code; it handles all the details of translating
+between conformable Python objects and XML on the wire.
+
+
+.. warning::
+
+ The :mod:`xmlrpclib` module is not secure against maliciously
+ constructed data. If you need to parse untrusted or unauthenticated data see
+ :ref:`xml-vulnerabilities`.
+
+
+.. class:: ServerProxy(uri[, transport[, encoding[, verbose[, allow_none[, use_datetime]]]]])
+
+ A :class:`ServerProxy` instance is an object that manages communication with a
+ remote XML-RPC server. The required first argument is a URI (Uniform Resource
+ Indicator), and will normally be the URL of the server. The optional second
+ argument is a transport factory instance; by default it is an internal
+ :class:`SafeTransport` instance for https: URLs and an internal HTTP
+ :class:`Transport` instance otherwise. The optional third argument is an
+ encoding, by default UTF-8. The optional fourth argument is a debugging flag.
+ If *allow_none* is true, the Python constant ``None`` will be translated into
+ XML; the default behaviour is for ``None`` to raise a :exc:`TypeError`. This is
+ a commonly-used extension to the XML-RPC specification, but isn't supported by
+ all clients and servers; see http://ontosys.com/xml-rpc/extensions.php for a
+ description. The *use_datetime* flag can be used to cause date/time values to
+ be presented as :class:`datetime.datetime` objects; this is false by default.
+ :class:`datetime.datetime` objects may be passed to calls.
+
+ Both the HTTP and HTTPS transports support the URL syntax extension for HTTP
+ Basic Authentication: ``http://user:pass@host:port/path``. The ``user:pass``
+ portion will be base64-encoded as an HTTP 'Authorization' header, and sent to
+ the remote server as part of the connection process when invoking an XML-RPC
+ method. You only need to use this if the remote server requires a Basic
+ Authentication user and password.
+
+ The returned instance is a proxy object with methods that can be used to invoke
+ corresponding RPC calls on the remote server. If the remote server supports the
+ introspection API, the proxy can also be used to query the remote server for the
+ methods it supports (service discovery) and fetch other server-associated
+ metadata.
+
+ :class:`ServerProxy` instance methods take Python basic types and objects as
+ arguments and return Python basic types and classes. Types that are conformable
+ (e.g. that can be marshalled through XML), include the following (and except
+ where noted, they are unmarshalled as the same Python type):
+
+ +---------------------------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | Name | Meaning |
+ +=================================+=============================================+
+ | :const:`boolean` | The :const:`True` and :const:`False` |
+ | | constants |
+ +---------------------------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | :const:`integers` | Pass in directly |
+ +---------------------------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | :const:`floating-point numbers` | Pass in directly |
+ +---------------------------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | :const:`strings` | Pass in directly |
+ +---------------------------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | :const:`arrays` | Any Python sequence type containing |
+ | | conformable elements. Arrays are returned |
+ | | as lists |
+ +---------------------------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | :const:`structures` | A Python dictionary. Keys must be strings, |
+ | | values may be any conformable type. Objects |
+ | | of user-defined classes can be passed in; |
+ | | only their *__dict__* attribute is |
+ | | transmitted. |
+ +---------------------------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | :const:`dates` | in seconds since the epoch (pass in an |
+ | | instance of the :class:`DateTime` class) or |
+ | | a :class:`datetime.datetime` instance. |
+ +---------------------------------+---------------------------------------------+
+ | :const:`binary data` | pass in an instance of the :class:`Binary` |
+ | | wrapper class |
+ +---------------------------------+---------------------------------------------+
+
+ This is the full set of data types supported by XML-RPC. Method calls may also
+ raise a special :exc:`Fault` instance, used to signal XML-RPC server errors, or
+ :exc:`ProtocolError` used to signal an error in the HTTP/HTTPS transport layer.
+ Both :exc:`Fault` and :exc:`ProtocolError` derive from a base class called
+ :exc:`Error`. Note that even though starting with Python 2.2 you can subclass
+ built-in types, the xmlrpclib module currently does not marshal instances of such
+ subclasses.
+
+ When passing strings, characters special to XML such as ``<``, ``>``, and ``&``
+ will be automatically escaped. However, it's the caller's responsibility to
+ ensure that the string is free of characters that aren't allowed in XML, such as
+ the control characters with ASCII values between 0 and 31 (except, of course,
+ tab, newline and carriage return); failing to do this will result in an XML-RPC
+ request that isn't well-formed XML. If you have to pass arbitrary strings via
+ XML-RPC, use the :class:`Binary` wrapper class described below.
+
+ :class:`Server` is retained as an alias for :class:`ServerProxy` for backwards
+ compatibility. New code should use :class:`ServerProxy`.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ The *use_datetime* flag was added.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ Instances of :term:`new-style class`\es can be passed in if they have an
+ *__dict__* attribute and don't have a base class that is marshalled in a
+ special way.

+
+.. _serverproxy-objects:
+
+ServerProxy Objects
+-------------------
+
+A :class:`ServerProxy` instance has a method corresponding to each remote
+procedure call accepted by the XML-RPC server. Calling the method performs an
+RPC, dispatched by both name and argument signature (e.g. the same method name
+can be overloaded with multiple argument signatures). The RPC finishes by
+returning a value, which may be either returned data in a conformant type or a
+:class:`Fault` or :class:`ProtocolError` object indicating an error.
+
+Servers that support the XML introspection API support some common methods
+grouped under the reserved :attr:`system` attribute:
+
+
+.. method:: ServerProxy.system.listMethods()
+
+ This method returns a list of strings, one for each (non-system) method
+ supported by the XML-RPC server.
+
+
+.. method:: ServerProxy.system.methodSignature(name)
+
+ This method takes one parameter, the name of a method implemented by the XML-RPC
+ server. It returns an array of possible signatures for this method. A signature
+ is an array of types. The first of these types is the return type of the method,
+ the rest are parameters.
+
+ Because multiple signatures (ie. overloading) is permitted, this method returns
+ a list of signatures rather than a singleton.
+
+ Signatures themselves are restricted to the top level parameters expected by a
+ method. For instance if a method expects one array of structs as a parameter,
+ and it returns a string, its signature is simply "string, array". If it expects
+ three integers and returns a string, its signature is "string, int, int, int".
+
+ If no signature is defined for the method, a non-array value is returned. In
+ Python this means that the type of the returned value will be something other
+ than list.
+
+
+.. method:: ServerProxy.system.methodHelp(name)
+
+ This method takes one parameter, the name of a method implemented by the XML-RPC
+ server. It returns a documentation string describing the use of that method. If
+ no such string is available, an empty string is returned. The documentation
+ string may contain HTML markup.
+
+
+.. _boolean-objects:
+
+Boolean Objects
+---------------
+
+This class may be initialized from any Python value; the instance returned
+depends only on its truth value. It supports various Python operators through
+:meth:`__cmp__`, :meth:`__repr__`, :meth:`__int__`, and :meth:`__nonzero__`
+methods, all implemented in the obvious ways.
+
+It also has the following method, supported mainly for internal use by the
+unmarshalling code:
+
+
+.. method:: Boolean.encode(out)
+
+ Write the XML-RPC encoding of this Boolean item to the out stream object.
+
+A working example follows. The server code::
+
+ import xmlrpclib
+ from SimpleXMLRPCServer import SimpleXMLRPCServer
+
+ def is_even(n):
+ return n%2 == 0
+
+ server = SimpleXMLRPCServer(("localhost", 8000))
+ print "Listening on port 8000..."
+ server.register_function(is_even, "is_even")
+ server.serve_forever()
+
+The client code for the preceding server::
+
+ import xmlrpclib
+
+ proxy = xmlrpclib.ServerProxy("http://localhost:8000/")
+ print "3 is even: %s" % str(proxy.is_even(3))
+ print "100 is even: %s" % str(proxy.is_even(100))
+
+.. _datetime-objects:
+
+DateTime Objects
+----------------
+
+This class may be initialized with seconds since the epoch, a time
+tuple, an ISO 8601 time/date string, or a :class:`datetime.datetime`
+instance. It has the following methods, supported mainly for internal
+use by the marshalling/unmarshalling code:
+
+
+.. method:: DateTime.decode(string)
+
+ Accept a string as the instance's new time value.
+
+
+.. method:: DateTime.encode(out)
+
+ Write the XML-RPC encoding of this :class:`DateTime` item to the *out* stream
+ object.
+
+It also supports certain of Python's built-in operators through :meth:`__cmp__`
+and :meth:`__repr__` methods.
+
+A working example follows. The server code::
+
+ import datetime
+ from SimpleXMLRPCServer import SimpleXMLRPCServer
+ import xmlrpclib
+
+ def today():
+ today = datetime.datetime.today()
+ return xmlrpclib.DateTime(today)
+
+ server = SimpleXMLRPCServer(("localhost", 8000))
+ print "Listening on port 8000..."
+ server.register_function(today, "today")
+ server.serve_forever()
+
+The client code for the preceding server::
+
+ import xmlrpclib
+ import datetime
+
+ proxy = xmlrpclib.ServerProxy("http://localhost:8000/")
+
+ today = proxy.today()
+ # convert the ISO8601 string to a datetime object
+ converted = datetime.datetime.strptime(today.value, "%Y%m%dT%H:%M:%S")
+ print "Today: %s" % converted.strftime("%d.%m.%Y, %H:%M")
+
+.. _binary-objects:
+
+Binary Objects
+--------------
+
+This class may be initialized from string data (which may include NULs). The
+primary access to the content of a :class:`Binary` object is provided by an
+attribute:
+
+
+.. attribute:: Binary.data
+
+ The binary data encapsulated by the :class:`Binary` instance. The data is
+ provided as an 8-bit string.
+
+:class:`Binary` objects have the following methods, supported mainly for
+internal use by the marshalling/unmarshalling code:
+
+
+.. method:: Binary.decode(string)
+
+ Accept a base64 string and decode it as the instance's new data.
+
+
+.. method:: Binary.encode(out)
+
+ Write the XML-RPC base 64 encoding of this binary item to the out stream object.
+
+ The encoded data will have newlines every 76 characters as per
+ `RFC 2045 section 6.8 <http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2045#section-6.8>`_,
+ which was the de facto standard base64 specification when the
+ XML-RPC spec was written.
+
+It also supports certain of Python's built-in operators through a
+:meth:`__cmp__` method.
+
+Example usage of the binary objects. We're going to transfer an image over
+XMLRPC::
+
+ from SimpleXMLRPCServer import SimpleXMLRPCServer
+ import xmlrpclib
+
+ def python_logo():
+ with open("python_logo.jpg", "rb") as handle:
+ return xmlrpclib.Binary(handle.read())
+
+ server = SimpleXMLRPCServer(("localhost", 8000))
+ print "Listening on port 8000..."
+ server.register_function(python_logo, 'python_logo')
+
+ server.serve_forever()
+
+The client gets the image and saves it to a file::
+
+ import xmlrpclib
+
+ proxy = xmlrpclib.ServerProxy("http://localhost:8000/")
+ with open("fetched_python_logo.jpg", "wb") as handle:
+ handle.write(proxy.python_logo().data)
+
+.. _fault-objects:
+
+Fault Objects
+-------------
+
+A :class:`Fault` object encapsulates the content of an XML-RPC fault tag. Fault
+objects have the following attributes:
+
+
+.. attribute:: Fault.faultCode
+
+ A string indicating the fault type.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Fault.faultString
+
+ A string containing a diagnostic message associated with the fault.
+
+In the following example we're going to intentionally cause a :exc:`Fault` by
+returning a complex type object. The server code::
+
+ from SimpleXMLRPCServer import SimpleXMLRPCServer
+
+ # A marshalling error is going to occur because we're returning a
+ # complex number
+ def add(x,y):
+ return x+y+0j
+
+ server = SimpleXMLRPCServer(("localhost", 8000))
+ print "Listening on port 8000..."
+ server.register_function(add, 'add')
+
+ server.serve_forever()
+
+The client code for the preceding server::
+
+ import xmlrpclib
+
+ proxy = xmlrpclib.ServerProxy("http://localhost:8000/")
+ try:
+ proxy.add(2, 5)
+ except xmlrpclib.Fault as err:
+ print "A fault occurred"
+ print "Fault code: %d" % err.faultCode
+ print "Fault string: %s" % err.faultString
+
+
+
+.. _protocol-error-objects:
+
+ProtocolError Objects
+---------------------
+
+A :class:`ProtocolError` object describes a protocol error in the underlying
+transport layer (such as a 404 'not found' error if the server named by the URI
+does not exist). It has the following attributes:
+
+
+.. attribute:: ProtocolError.url
+
+ The URI or URL that triggered the error.
+
+
+.. attribute:: ProtocolError.errcode
+
+ The error code.
+
+
+.. attribute:: ProtocolError.errmsg
+
+ The error message or diagnostic string.
+
+
+.. attribute:: ProtocolError.headers
+
+ A string containing the headers of the HTTP/HTTPS request that triggered the
+ error.
+
+In the following example we're going to intentionally cause a :exc:`ProtocolError`
+by providing an URI that doesn't point to an XMLRPC server::
+
+ import xmlrpclib
+
+ # create a ServerProxy with an URI that doesn't respond to XMLRPC requests
+ proxy = xmlrpclib.ServerProxy("http://www.google.com/")
+

+ print "Error message: %s" % err.errmsg
+
+MultiCall Objects
+-----------------
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.4
+
+The :class:`MultiCall` object provides a way to encapsulate multiple calls to a
+remote server into a single request [#]_.
+
+
+.. class:: MultiCall(server)
+
+ Create an object used to boxcar method calls. *server* is the eventual target of
+ the call. Calls can be made to the result object, but they will immediately
+ return ``None``, and only store the call name and parameters in the
+ :class:`MultiCall` object. Calling the object itself causes all stored calls to
+ be transmitted as a single ``system.multicall`` request. The result of this call
+ is a :term:`generator`; iterating over this generator yields the individual
+ results.
+
+A usage example of this class follows. The server code ::
+
+ from SimpleXMLRPCServer import SimpleXMLRPCServer
+
+ def add(x,y):
+ return x+y
+
+ def subtract(x, y):
+ return x-y
+
+ def multiply(x, y):
+ return x*y
+
+ def divide(x, y):
+ return x/y
+
+ # A simple server with simple arithmetic functions
+ server = SimpleXMLRPCServer(("localhost", 8000))
+ print "Listening on port 8000..."
+ server.register_multicall_functions()
+ server.register_function(add, 'add')
+ server.register_function(subtract, 'subtract')
+ server.register_function(multiply, 'multiply')
+ server.register_function(divide, 'divide')
+ server.serve_forever()
+
+The client code for the preceding server::
+
+ import xmlrpclib
+
+ proxy = xmlrpclib.ServerProxy("http://localhost:8000/")
+ multicall = xmlrpclib.MultiCall(proxy)
+ multicall.add(7,3)
+ multicall.subtract(7,3)
+ multicall.multiply(7,3)
+ multicall.divide(7,3)
+ result = multicall()
+
+ print "7+3=%d, 7-3=%d, 7*3=%d, 7/3=%d" % tuple(result)
+
+
+Convenience Functions
+---------------------
+
+
+.. function:: boolean(value)
+
+ Convert any Python value to one of the XML-RPC Boolean constants, ``True`` or
+ ``False``.
+
+
+.. function:: dumps(params[, methodname[, methodresponse[, encoding[, allow_none]]]])
+
+ Convert *params* into an XML-RPC request. or into a response if *methodresponse*
+ is true. *params* can be either a tuple of arguments or an instance of the
+ :exc:`Fault` exception class. If *methodresponse* is true, only a single value
+ can be returned, meaning that *params* must be of length 1. *encoding*, if
+ supplied, is the encoding to use in the generated XML; the default is UTF-8.
+ Python's :const:`None` value cannot be used in standard XML-RPC; to allow using
+ it via an extension, provide a true value for *allow_none*.
+
+
+.. function:: loads(data[, use_datetime])
+
+ Convert an XML-RPC request or response into Python objects, a ``(params,
+ methodname)``. *params* is a tuple of argument; *methodname* is a string, or
+ ``None`` if no method name is present in the packet. If the XML-RPC packet
+ represents a fault condition, this function will raise a :exc:`Fault` exception.
+ The *use_datetime* flag can be used to cause date/time values to be presented as
+ :class:`datetime.datetime` objects; this is false by default.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.5
+ The *use_datetime* flag was added.
+
+
+.. _xmlrpc-client-example:
+
+Example of Client Usage
+-----------------------
+
+::
+
+ # simple test program (from the XML-RPC specification)
+ from xmlrpclib import ServerProxy, Error
+
+ # server = ServerProxy("http://localhost:8000") # local server
+ server = ServerProxy("http://betty.userland.com")
+
+ print server
+
+ try:
+ print server.examples.getStateName(41)
+ except Error as v:
+ print "ERROR", v
+
+To access an XML-RPC server through a proxy, you need to define a custom
+transport. The following example shows how:
+
+.. Example taken from http://lowlife.jp/nobonobo/wiki/xmlrpcwithproxy.html
+
+::
+
+ import xmlrpclib, httplib
+
+ class ProxiedTransport(xmlrpclib.Transport):
+ def set_proxy(self, proxy):
+ self.proxy = proxy
+ def make_connection(self, host):
+ self.realhost = host
+ h = httplib.HTTP(self.proxy)
+ return h
+ def send_request(self, connection, handler, request_body):
+ connection.putrequest("POST", 'http://%s%s' % (self.realhost, handler))
+ def send_host(self, connection, host):
+ connection.putheader('Host', self.realhost)
+
+ p = ProxiedTransport()
+ p.set_proxy('proxy-server:8080')
+ server = xmlrpclib.Server('http://time.xmlrpc.com/RPC2', transport=p)
+ print server.currentTime.getCurrentTime()
+

+:mod:`zipfile` --- Work with ZIP archives
+=========================================
+
+.. module:: zipfile
+ :synopsis: Read and write ZIP-format archive files.
+.. moduleauthor:: James C. Ahlstrom <[email protected]>
+.. sectionauthor:: James C. Ahlstrom <[email protected]>
+
+.. versionadded:: 1.6
+
+**Source code:** :source:`Lib/zipfile.py`
+
+--------------
+
+The ZIP file format is a common archive and compression standard. This module
+provides tools to create, read, write, append, and list a ZIP file. Any
+advanced use of this module will require an understanding of the format, as
+defined in `PKZIP Application Note
+<http://www.pkware.com/documents/casestudies/APPNOTE.TXT>`_.
+
+This module does not currently handle multi-disk ZIP files.
+It can handle ZIP files that use the ZIP64 extensions
+(that is ZIP files that are more than 4 GByte in size). It supports
+decryption of encrypted files in ZIP archives, but it currently cannot
+create an encrypted file. Decryption is extremely slow as it is
+implemented in native Python rather than C.
+
+The module defines the following items:
+
+.. exception:: BadZipfile
+
+ The error raised for bad ZIP files (old name: ``zipfile.error``).
+
+
+.. exception:: LargeZipFile
+
+ The error raised when a ZIP file would require ZIP64 functionality but that has
+ not been enabled.
+
+
+.. class:: ZipFile
+ :noindex:
+
+ The class for reading and writing ZIP files. See section
+ :ref:`zipfile-objects` for constructor details.
+
+
+.. class:: PyZipFile
+
+ Class for creating ZIP archives containing Python libraries.
+
+
+.. class:: ZipInfo([filename[, date_time]])
+
+ Class used to represent information about a member of an archive. Instances
+ of this class are returned by the :meth:`.getinfo` and :meth:`.infolist`
+ methods of :class:`ZipFile` objects. Most users of the :mod:`zipfile` module
+ will not need to create these, but only use those created by this
+ module. *filename* should be the full name of the archive member, and
+ *date_time* should be a tuple containing six fields which describe the time
+ of the last modification to the file; the fields are described in section
+ :ref:`zipinfo-objects`.
+
+
+.. function:: is_zipfile(filename)
+
+ Returns ``True`` if *filename* is a valid ZIP file based on its magic number,
+ otherwise returns ``False``. *filename* may be a file or file-like object too.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ Support for file and file-like objects.
+
+.. data:: ZIP_STORED
+
+ The numeric constant for an uncompressed archive member.
+
+
+.. data:: ZIP_DEFLATED
+
+ The numeric constant for the usual ZIP compression method. This requires the
+ :mod:`zlib` module. No other compression methods are currently supported.
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ `PKZIP Application Note <http://www.pkware.com/documents/casestudies/APPNOTE.TXT>`_
+ Documentation on the ZIP file format by Phil Katz, the creator of the format and
+ algorithms used.
+
+ `Info-ZIP Home Page <http://www.info-zip.org/>`_
+ Information about the Info-ZIP project's ZIP archive programs and development
+ libraries.
+
+
+.. _zipfile-objects:
+
+ZipFile Objects
+---------------
+
+
+.. class:: ZipFile(file[, mode[, compression[, allowZip64]]])
+
+ Open a ZIP file, where *file* can be either a path to a file (a string) or a
+ file-like object. The *mode* parameter should be ``'r'`` to read an existing
+ file, ``'w'`` to truncate and write a new file, or ``'a'`` to append to an
+ existing file. If *mode* is ``'a'`` and *file* refers to an existing ZIP
+ file, then additional files are added to it. If *file* does not refer to a
+ ZIP file, then a new ZIP archive is appended to the file. This is meant for
+ adding a ZIP archive to another file (such as :file:`python.exe`).
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ If *mode* is ``a`` and the file does not exist at all, it is created.
+
+ *compression* is the ZIP compression method to use when writing the archive,
+ and should be :const:`ZIP_STORED` or :const:`ZIP_DEFLATED`; unrecognized
+ values will cause :exc:`RuntimeError` to be raised. If :const:`ZIP_DEFLATED`
+ is specified but the :mod:`zlib` module is not available, :exc:`RuntimeError`
+ is also raised. The default is :const:`ZIP_STORED`. If *allowZip64* is
+ ``True`` zipfile will create ZIP files that use the ZIP64 extensions when
+ the zipfile is larger than 2 GB. If it is false (the default) :mod:`zipfile`
+ will raise an exception when the ZIP file would require ZIP64 extensions.
+ ZIP64 extensions are disabled by default because the default :program:`zip`
+ and :program:`unzip` commands on Unix (the InfoZIP utilities) don't support
+ these extensions.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7.1
+ If the file is created with mode ``'a'`` or ``'w'`` and then
+ :meth:`closed <close>` without adding any files to the archive, the appropriate
+ ZIP structures for an empty archive will be written to the file.
+
+ ZipFile is also a context manager and therefore supports the
+ :keyword:`with` statement. In the example, *myzip* is closed after the
+ :keyword:`with` statement's suite is finished---even if an exception occurs::
+
+ with ZipFile('spam.zip', 'w') as myzip:
+ myzip.write('eggs.txt')
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+ Added the ability to use :class:`ZipFile` as a context manager.
+
+
+.. method:: ZipFile.close()
+
+ Close the archive file. You must call :meth:`close` before exiting your program
+ or essential records will not be written.
+
+
+.. method:: ZipFile.getinfo(name)
+
+ Return a :class:`ZipInfo` object with information about the archive member
+ *name*. Calling :meth:`getinfo` for a name not currently contained in the
+ archive will raise a :exc:`KeyError`.
+
+
+.. method:: ZipFile.infolist()
+
+ Return a list containing a :class:`ZipInfo` object for each member of the
+ archive. The objects are in the same order as their entries in the actual ZIP
+ file on disk if an existing archive was opened.
+
+
+.. method:: ZipFile.namelist()
+
+ Return a list of archive members by name.
+
+ .. index::
+ single: universal newlines; zipfile.ZipFile.open method
+
+
+.. method:: ZipFile.open(name[, mode[, pwd]])
+
+ Extract a member from the archive as a file-like object (ZipExtFile). *name* is
+ the name of the file in the archive, or a :class:`ZipInfo` object. The *mode*
+ parameter, if included, must be one of the following: ``'r'`` (the default),
+ ``'U'``, or ``'rU'``. Choosing ``'U'`` or ``'rU'`` will enable
+ :term:`universal newline <universal newlines>`
+ support in the read-only object. *pwd* is the password used for encrypted files.
+ Calling :meth:`.open` on a closed ZipFile will raise a :exc:`RuntimeError`.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ The file-like object is read-only and provides the following methods:
+ :meth:`!read`, :meth:`!readline`, :meth:`!readlines`, :meth:`!__iter__`,
+ :meth:`!next`.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ If the ZipFile was created by passing in a file-like object as the first
+ argument to the constructor, then the object returned by :meth:`.open` shares the
+ ZipFile's file pointer. Under these circumstances, the object returned by
+ :meth:`.open` should not be used after any additional operations are performed
+ on the ZipFile object. If the ZipFile was created by passing in a string (the
+ filename) as the first argument to the constructor, then :meth:`.open` will
+ create a new file object that will be held by the ZipExtFile, allowing it to
+ operate independently of the ZipFile.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ The :meth:`.open`, :meth:`read` and :meth:`extract` methods can take a filename
+ or a :class:`ZipInfo` object. You will appreciate this when trying to read a
+ ZIP file that contains members with duplicate names.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. method:: ZipFile.extract(member[, path[, pwd]])
+
+ Extract a member from the archive to the current working directory; *member*
+ must be its full name or a :class:`ZipInfo` object). Its file information is
+ extracted as accurately as possible. *path* specifies a different directory
+ to extract to. *member* can be a filename or a :class:`ZipInfo` object.
+ *pwd* is the password used for encrypted files.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+ .. note::
+
+ If a member filename is an absolute path, a drive/UNC sharepoint and
+ leading (back)slashes will be stripped, e.g.: ``///foo/bar`` becomes
+ ``foo/bar`` on Unix, and ``C:\foo\bar`` becomes ``foo\bar`` on Windows.
+ And all ``".."`` components in a member filename will be removed, e.g.:
+ ``../../foo../../ba..r`` becomes ``foo../ba..r``. On Windows illegal
+ characters (``:``, ``<``, ``>``, ``|``, ``"``, ``?``, and ``*``)
+ replaced by underscore (``_``).
+
+
+.. method:: ZipFile.extractall([path[, members[, pwd]]])
+
+ Extract all members from the archive to the current working directory. *path*
+ specifies a different directory to extract to. *members* is optional and must
+ be a subset of the list returned by :meth:`namelist`. *pwd* is the password
+ used for encrypted files.
+
+ .. warning::
+
+ Never extract archives from untrusted sources without prior inspection.
+ It is possible that files are created outside of *path*, e.g. members
+ that have absolute filenames starting with ``"/"`` or filenames with two
+ dots ``".."``.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7.4
+ The zipfile module attempts to prevent that. See :meth:`extract` note.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. method:: ZipFile.printdir()
+
+ Print a table of contents for the archive to ``sys.stdout``.
+
+
+.. method:: ZipFile.setpassword(pwd)
+
+ Set *pwd* as default password to extract encrypted files.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.6
+
+
+.. method:: ZipFile.read(name[, pwd])
+
+ Return the bytes of the file *name* in the archive. *name* is the name of the
+ file in the archive, or a :class:`ZipInfo` object. The archive must be open for
+ read or append. *pwd* is the password used for encrypted files and, if specified,
+ it will override the default password set with :meth:`setpassword`. Calling
+ :meth:`read` on a closed ZipFile will raise a :exc:`RuntimeError`.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ *pwd* was added, and *name* can now be a :class:`ZipInfo` object.
+
+
+.. method:: ZipFile.testzip()
+
+ Read all the files in the archive and check their CRC's and file headers.
+ Return the name of the first bad file, or else return ``None``. Calling
+ :meth:`testzip` on a closed ZipFile will raise a :exc:`RuntimeError`.
+
+
+.. method:: ZipFile.write(filename[, arcname[, compress_type]])
+
+ Write the file named *filename* to the archive, giving it the archive name
+ *arcname* (by default, this will be the same as *filename*, but without a drive
+ letter and with leading path separators removed). If given, *compress_type*
+ overrides the value given for the *compression* parameter to the constructor for
+ the new entry. The archive must be open with mode ``'w'`` or ``'a'`` -- calling
+ :meth:`write` on a ZipFile created with mode ``'r'`` will raise a
+ :exc:`RuntimeError`. Calling :meth:`write` on a closed ZipFile will raise a
+ :exc:`RuntimeError`.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ There is no official file name encoding for ZIP files. If you have unicode file
+ names, you must convert them to byte strings in your desired encoding before
+ passing them to :meth:`write`. WinZip interprets all file names as encoded in
+ CP437, also known as DOS Latin.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ Archive names should be relative to the archive root, that is, they should not
+ start with a path separator.
+
+ .. note::
+
+ If ``arcname`` (or ``filename``, if ``arcname`` is not given) contains a null
+ byte, the name of the file in the archive will be truncated at the null byte.
+
+
+.. method:: ZipFile.writestr(zinfo_or_arcname, bytes[, compress_type])
+
+ Write the string *bytes* to the archive; *zinfo_or_arcname* is either the file
+ name it will be given in the archive, or a :class:`ZipInfo` instance. If it's
+ an instance, at least the filename, date, and time must be given. If it's a
+ name, the date and time is set to the current date and time. The archive must be
+ opened with mode ``'w'`` or ``'a'`` -- calling :meth:`writestr` on a ZipFile
+ created with mode ``'r'`` will raise a :exc:`RuntimeError`. Calling
+ :meth:`writestr` on a closed ZipFile will raise a :exc:`RuntimeError`.
+
+ If given, *compress_type* overrides the value given for the *compression*
+ parameter to the constructor for the new entry, or in the *zinfo_or_arcname*
+ (if that is a :class:`ZipInfo` instance).
+
+ .. note::
+
+ When passing a :class:`ZipInfo` instance as the *zinfo_or_arcname* parameter,
+ the compression method used will be that specified in the *compress_type*
+ member of the given :class:`ZipInfo` instance. By default, the
+ :class:`ZipInfo` constructor sets this member to :const:`ZIP_STORED`.
+
+ .. versionchanged:: 2.7
+ The *compress_type* argument.
+
+The following data attributes are also available:
+
+
+.. attribute:: ZipFile.debug
+
+ The level of debug output to use. This may be set from ``0`` (the default, no
+ output) to ``3`` (the most output). Debugging information is written to
+ ``sys.stdout``.
+
+.. attribute:: ZipFile.comment
+
+ The comment text associated with the ZIP file. If assigning a comment to a
+ :class:`ZipFile` instance created with mode 'a' or 'w', this should be a
+ string no longer than 65535 bytes. Comments longer than this will be
+ truncated in the written archive when :meth:`.close` is called.
+
+.. _pyzipfile-objects:
+
+PyZipFile Objects
+-----------------
+
+The :class:`PyZipFile` constructor takes the same parameters as the
+:class:`ZipFile` constructor. Instances have one method in addition to those of
+:class:`ZipFile` objects.
+
+
+.. method:: PyZipFile.writepy(pathname[, basename])
+
+ Search for files :file:`\*.py` and add the corresponding file to the archive.
+ The corresponding file is a :file:`\*.pyo` file if available, else a
+ :file:`\*.pyc` file, compiling if necessary. If the pathname is a file, the
+ filename must end with :file:`.py`, and just the (corresponding
+ :file:`\*.py[co]`) file is added at the top level (no path information). If the
+ pathname is a file that does not end with :file:`.py`, a :exc:`RuntimeError`
+ will be raised. If it is a directory, and the directory is not a package
+ directory, then all the files :file:`\*.py[co]` are added at the top level. If
+ the directory is a package directory, then all :file:`\*.py[co]` are added under
+ the package name as a file path, and if any subdirectories are package
+ directories, all of these are added recursively. *basename* is intended for
+ internal use only. The :meth:`writepy` method makes archives with file names
+ like this::
+
+ string.pyc # Top level name
+ test/__init__.pyc # Package directory
+ test/test_support.pyc # Module test.test_support
+ test/bogus/__init__.pyc # Subpackage directory
+ test/bogus/myfile.pyc # Submodule test.bogus.myfile
+
+
+.. _zipinfo-objects:
+
+ZipInfo Objects
+---------------
+
+Instances of the :class:`ZipInfo` class are returned by the :meth:`.getinfo` and
+:meth:`.infolist` methods of :class:`ZipFile` objects. Each object stores
+information about a single member of the ZIP archive.
+
+Instances have the following attributes:
+
+
+.. attribute:: ZipInfo.filename
+
+ Name of the file in the archive.
+
+
+.. attribute:: ZipInfo.date_time
+
+ The time and date of the last modification to the archive member. This is a
+ tuple of six values:
+
+ +-------+--------------------------+
+ | Index | Value |
+ +=======+==========================+
+ | ``0`` | Year (>= 1980) |
+ +-------+--------------------------+
+ | ``1`` | Month (one-based) |

+
+:mod:`zipimport` --- Import modules from Zip archives
+=====================================================
+
+.. module:: zipimport
+ :synopsis: support for importing Python modules from ZIP archives.
+.. moduleauthor:: Just van Rossum <[email protected]>
+
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+This module adds the ability to import Python modules (:file:`\*.py`,
+:file:`\*.py[co]`) and packages from ZIP-format archives. It is usually not
+needed to use the :mod:`zipimport` module explicitly; it is automatically used
+by the built-in :keyword:`import` mechanism for :data:`sys.path` items that are paths
+to ZIP archives.
+
+Typically, :data:`sys.path` is a list of directory names as strings. This module
+also allows an item of :data:`sys.path` to be a string naming a ZIP file archive.
+The ZIP archive can contain a subdirectory structure to support package imports,
+and a path within the archive can be specified to only import from a
+subdirectory. For example, the path :file:`example.zip/lib/` would only
+import from the :file:`lib/` subdirectory within the archive.
+
+Any files may be present in the ZIP archive, but only files :file:`.py` and
+:file:`.py[co]` are available for import. ZIP import of dynamic modules
+(:file:`.pyd`, :file:`.so`) is disallowed. Note that if an archive only contains
+:file:`.py` files, Python will not attempt to modify the archive by adding the
+corresponding :file:`.pyc` or :file:`.pyo` file, meaning that if a ZIP archive
+doesn't contain :file:`.pyc` files, importing may be rather slow.
+
+Using the built-in :func:`reload` function will fail if called on a module
+loaded from a ZIP archive; it is unlikely that :func:`reload` would be needed,
+since this would imply that the ZIP has been altered during runtime.
+
+ZIP archives with an archive comment are currently not supported.
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ `PKZIP Application Note <http://www.pkware.com/documents/casestudies/APPNOTE.TXT>`_
+ Documentation on the ZIP file format by Phil Katz, the creator of the format and
+ algorithms used.

+ Written by James C. Ahlstrom, who also provided an implementation. Python 2.3
+ follows the specification in PEP 273, but uses an implementation written by Just
+ van Rossum that uses the import hooks described in PEP 302.
+
+ :pep:`302` - New Import Hooks
+ The PEP to add the import hooks that help this module work.
+
+
+This module defines an exception:
+
+.. exception:: ZipImportError
+
+ Exception raised by zipimporter objects. It's a subclass of :exc:`ImportError`,
+ so it can be caught as :exc:`ImportError`, too.
+
+
+.. _zipimporter-objects:
+
+zipimporter Objects
+-------------------
+
+:class:`zipimporter` is the class for importing ZIP files.
+
+.. class:: zipimporter(archivepath)
+
+ Create a new zipimporter instance. *archivepath* must be a path to a ZIP
+ file, or to a specific path within a ZIP file. For example, an *archivepath*
+ of :file:`foo/bar.zip/lib` will look for modules in the :file:`lib` directory
+ inside the ZIP file :file:`foo/bar.zip` (provided that it exists).
+
+ :exc:`ZipImportError` is raised if *archivepath* doesn't point to a valid ZIP
+ archive.
+
+ .. method:: find_module(fullname[, path])
+
+ Search for a module specified by *fullname*. *fullname* must be the fully
+ qualified (dotted) module name. It returns the zipimporter instance itself
+ if the module was found, or :const:`None` if it wasn't. The optional
+ *path* argument is ignored---it's there for compatibility with the
+ importer protocol.
+
+
+ .. method:: get_code(fullname)
+
+ Return the code object for the specified module. Raise
+ :exc:`ZipImportError` if the module couldn't be found.
+
+
+ .. method:: get_data(pathname)
+
+ Return the data associated with *pathname*. Raise :exc:`IOError` if the
+ file wasn't found.
+
+
+ .. method:: get_filename(fullname)
+
+ Return the value ``__file__`` would be set to if the specified module
+ was imported. Raise :exc:`ZipImportError` if the module couldn't be
+ found.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.7
+
+
+ .. method:: get_source(fullname)
+
+ Return the source code for the specified module. Raise
+ :exc:`ZipImportError` if the module couldn't be found, return
+ :const:`None` if the archive does contain the module, but has no source
+ for it.
+
+
+ .. method:: is_package(fullname)
+
+ Return True if the module specified by *fullname* is a package. Raise
+ :exc:`ZipImportError` if the module couldn't be found.
+
+
+ .. method:: load_module(fullname)
+
+ Load the module specified by *fullname*. *fullname* must be the fully
+ qualified (dotted) module name. It returns the imported module, or raises
+ :exc:`ZipImportError` if it wasn't found.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: archive
+
+ The file name of the importer's associated ZIP file, without a possible
+ subpath.
+
+
+ .. attribute:: prefix
+
+ The subpath within the ZIP file where modules are searched. This is the
+ empty string for zipimporter objects which point to the root of the ZIP
+ file.
+
+ The :attr:`archive` and :attr:`prefix` attributes, when combined with a
+ slash, equal the original *archivepath* argument given to the
+ :class:`zipimporter` constructor.

+:mod:`zlib` --- Compression compatible with :program:`gzip`
+===========================================================
+
+.. module:: zlib
+ :synopsis: Low-level interface to compression and decompression routines compatible with
+ gzip.
+
+
+For applications that require data compression, the functions in this module
+allow compression and decompression, using the zlib library. The zlib library
+has its own home page at http://www.zlib.net. There are known
+incompatibilities between the Python module and versions of the zlib library
+earlier than 1.1.3; 1.1.3 has a security vulnerability, so we recommend using
+1.1.4 or later.
+
+zlib's functions have many options and often need to be used in a particular
+order. This documentation doesn't attempt to cover all of the permutations;
+consult the zlib manual at http://www.zlib.net/manual.html for authoritative
+information.
+
+For reading and writing ``.gz`` files see the :mod:`gzip` module.
+
+The available exception and functions in this module are:
+
+
+.. exception:: error
+
+ Exception raised on compression and decompression errors.
+
+
+.. function:: adler32(data[, value])
+
+ Computes a Adler-32 checksum of *data*. (An Adler-32 checksum is almost as
+ reliable as a CRC32 but can be computed much more quickly.) If *value* is
+ present, it is used as the starting value of the checksum; otherwise, a fixed
+ default value is used. This allows computing a running checksum over the
+ concatenation of several inputs. The algorithm is not cryptographically
+ strong, and should not be used for authentication or digital signatures. Since
+ the algorithm is designed for use as a checksum algorithm, it is not suitable
+ for use as a general hash algorithm.
+
+ This function always returns an integer object.
+
+.. note::
+ To generate the same numeric value across all Python versions and
+ platforms use adler32(data) & 0xffffffff. If you are only using
+ the checksum in packed binary format this is not necessary as the
+ return value is the correct 32bit binary representation
+ regardless of sign.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ The return value is in the range [-2**31, 2**31-1]
+ regardless of platform. In older versions the value is
+ signed on some platforms and unsigned on others.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 3.0
+ The return value is unsigned and in the range [0, 2**32-1]
+ regardless of platform.
+
+
+.. function:: compress(string[, level])
+
+ Compresses the data in *string*, returning a string contained compressed data.
+ *level* is an integer from ``0`` to ``9`` controlling the level of compression;
+ ``1`` is fastest and produces the least compression, ``9`` is slowest and
+ produces the most. ``0`` is no compression. The default value is ``6``.
+ Raises the :exc:`error` exception if any error occurs.
+
+
+.. function:: compressobj([level])
+
+ Returns a compression object, to be used for compressing data streams that won't
+ fit into memory at once. *level* is an integer from ``0`` to ``9`` controlling
+ the level of compression; ``1`` is fastest and produces the least compression,
+ ``9`` is slowest and produces the most. ``0`` is no compression. The default
+ value is ``6``.
+
+
+.. function:: crc32(data[, value])
+
+ .. index::
+ single: Cyclic Redundancy Check
+ single: checksum; Cyclic Redundancy Check
+
+ Computes a CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check) checksum of *data*. If *value* is
+ present, it is used as the starting value of the checksum; otherwise, a fixed
+ default value is used. This allows computing a running checksum over the
+ concatenation of several inputs. The algorithm is not cryptographically
+ strong, and should not be used for authentication or digital signatures. Since
+ the algorithm is designed for use as a checksum algorithm, it is not suitable
+ for use as a general hash algorithm.
+
+ This function always returns an integer object.
+
+.. note::
+ To generate the same numeric value across all Python versions and
+ platforms use crc32(data) & 0xffffffff. If you are only using
+ the checksum in packed binary format this is not necessary as the
+ return value is the correct 32bit binary representation
+ regardless of sign.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 2.6
+ The return value is in the range [-2**31, 2**31-1]
+ regardless of platform. In older versions the value would be
+ signed on some platforms and unsigned on others.
+
+.. versionchanged:: 3.0
+ The return value is unsigned and in the range [0, 2**32-1]
+ regardless of platform.
+
+
+.. function:: decompress(string[, wbits[, bufsize]])
+
+ Decompresses the data in *string*, returning a string containing the
+ uncompressed data. The *wbits* parameter controls the size of the window
+ buffer, and is discussed further below.
+ If *bufsize* is given, it is used as the initial size of the output
+ buffer. Raises the :exc:`error` exception if any error occurs.
+
+ The absolute value of *wbits* is the base two logarithm of the size of the
+ history buffer (the "window size") used when compressing data. Its absolute
+ value should be between 8 and 15 for the most recent versions of the zlib
+ library, larger values resulting in better compression at the expense of greater
+ memory usage. When decompressing a stream, *wbits* must not be smaller
+ than the size originally used to compress the stream; using a too-small
+ value will result in an exception. The default value is therefore the
+ highest value, 15. When *wbits* is negative, the standard
+ :program:`gzip` header is suppressed.
+
+ *bufsize* is the initial size of the buffer used to hold decompressed data. If
+ more space is required, the buffer size will be increased as needed, so you
+ don't have to get this value exactly right; tuning it will only save a few calls
+ to :c:func:`malloc`. The default size is 16384.
+
+
+.. function:: decompressobj([wbits])
+
+ Returns a decompression object, to be used for decompressing data streams that
+ won't fit into memory at once. The *wbits* parameter controls the size of the
+ window buffer.
+
+Compression objects support the following methods:
+
+
+.. method:: Compress.compress(string)
+
+ Compress *string*, returning a string containing compressed data for at least
+ part of the data in *string*. This data should be concatenated to the output
+ produced by any preceding calls to the :meth:`compress` method. Some input may
+ be kept in internal buffers for later processing.
+
+
+.. method:: Compress.flush([mode])
+
+ All pending input is processed, and a string containing the remaining compressed
+ output is returned. *mode* can be selected from the constants
+ :const:`Z_SYNC_FLUSH`, :const:`Z_FULL_FLUSH`, or :const:`Z_FINISH`,
+ defaulting to :const:`Z_FINISH`. :const:`Z_SYNC_FLUSH` and
+ :const:`Z_FULL_FLUSH` allow compressing further strings of data, while
+ :const:`Z_FINISH` finishes the compressed stream and prevents compressing any
+ more data. After calling :meth:`flush` with *mode* set to :const:`Z_FINISH`,
+ the :meth:`compress` method cannot be called again; the only realistic action is
+ to delete the object.
+
+
+.. method:: Compress.copy()
+
+ Returns a copy of the compression object. This can be used to efficiently
+ compress a set of data that share a common initial prefix.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+Decompression objects support the following methods, and two attributes:
+
+
+.. attribute:: Decompress.unused_data
+
+ A string which contains any bytes past the end of the compressed data. That is,
+ this remains ``""`` until the last byte that contains compression data is
+ available. If the whole string turned out to contain compressed data, this is
+ ``""``, the empty string.
+
+ The only way to determine where a string of compressed data ends is by actually
+ decompressing it. This means that when compressed data is contained part of a
+ larger file, you can only find the end of it by reading data and feeding it
+ followed by some non-empty string into a decompression object's
+ :meth:`decompress` method until the :attr:`unused_data` attribute is no longer
+ the empty string.
+
+
+.. attribute:: Decompress.unconsumed_tail
+
+ A string that contains any data that was not consumed by the last
+ :meth:`decompress` call because it exceeded the limit for the uncompressed data
+ buffer. This data has not yet been seen by the zlib machinery, so you must feed
+ it (possibly with further data concatenated to it) back to a subsequent
+ :meth:`decompress` method call in order to get correct output.
+
+
+.. method:: Decompress.decompress(string[, max_length])
+
+ Decompress *string*, returning a string containing the uncompressed data
+ corresponding to at least part of the data in *string*. This data should be
+ concatenated to the output produced by any preceding calls to the
+ :meth:`decompress` method. Some of the input data may be preserved in internal
+ buffers for later processing.
+
+ If the optional parameter *max_length* is supplied then the return value will be
+ no longer than *max_length*. This may mean that not all of the compressed input
+ can be processed; and unconsumed data will be stored in the attribute
+ :attr:`unconsumed_tail`. This string must be passed to a subsequent call to
+ :meth:`decompress` if decompression is to continue. If *max_length* is not
+ supplied then the whole input is decompressed, and :attr:`unconsumed_tail` is an
+ empty string.
+
+
+.. method:: Decompress.flush([length])
+
+ All pending input is processed, and a string containing the remaining
+ uncompressed output is returned. After calling :meth:`flush`, the
+ :meth:`decompress` method cannot be called again; the only realistic action is
+ to delete the object.
+
+ The optional parameter *length* sets the initial size of the output buffer.
+
+
+.. method:: Decompress.copy()
+
+ Returns a copy of the decompression object. This can be used to save the state
+ of the decompressor midway through the data stream in order to speed up random
+ seeks into the stream at a future point.
