msilib.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.

persistent_load(pid) Raise an UnpicklingError by default. If defined, persistent_load() should return the object specified by the persistent ID pid. If an invalid persistent ID is encountered, an UnpicklingError should be raised. See Persistence of External Objects for details and examples of uses.

itertools.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. Roughly equivalent to: def chain(*iterables): # chain('ABC', 'DEF') --> A B C D E F for it in iterables: for element in it: yield element

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.

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 filter().

class smtpd.SMTPServer(localaddr, remoteaddr, data_size_limit=33554432, map=None, enable_SMTPUTF8=False, decode_data=True) Create a new SMTPServer object, which binds to local address localaddr. It will treat remoteaddr as an upstream SMTP relayer. It inherits from asyncore.dispatcher, and so will insert itself into asyncore‘s event loop on instantiation. data_size_limit specifies the maximum number of bytes that will be accepted in a DATA command. A value of None or 0 means no limit. map is

cmath.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.

traceback Traceback where the memory blocks were allocated, Traceback instance.

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 maxdict, 5 for maxarray, and 6 for the others.

class urllib.request.OpenerDirector The OpenerDirector class opens URLs via BaseHandlers chained together. It manages the chaining of handlers, and recovery from errors.
