os.spawnv(mode, path, args) os.spawnve(mode, path, args, env) os.spawnvp(mode, file, args) os.spawnvpe(mode, file, args, env) Execute the program path in a new process. (Note that the subprocess module provides more powerful facilities for spawning new processes and retrieving their results; using that module is preferable to using these functions. Check especially the Replacing Older Functions with the subprocess Module section.) If mode is P_NOWAIT, this function returns the process id of t

count Number of memory blocks (int).

test.support.temp_cwd(name='tempcwd', quiet=False) A context manager that temporarily creates a new directory and changes the current working directory (CWD). The context manager creates a temporary directory in the current directory with name name before temporarily changing the current working directory. If name is None, the temporary directory is created using tempfile.mkdtemp(). If quiet is False and it is not possible to create or change the CWD, an error is raised. Otherwise, only a wa

is_private

read([size]) Read and return size bytes, or if size is not given or negative, until EOF or if the read call would block in non-blocking mode.

match.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

math.e The mathematical constant e = 2.718281..., to available precision.

msilib.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.

urllib.request.urlcleanup() Cleans up temporary files that may have been left behind by previous calls to urlretrieve().

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 ValueError is raised.
