signal.alarm(time) If time is non-zero, this function requests that a 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 alarm(2).)

urllib.parse.quote_plus(string, safe='', encoding=None, errors=None) Like quote(), but also replace 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 '/'. Example: quote_plus('/El Niño/') yields '%2FEl+Ni%C3%B1o%2F'.

SMTP.connect(host='localhost', port=0) 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 respon

Handler.removeFilter(filt) Removes the specified filter filt from this handler.

readline.read_history_file([filename]) Load a readline history file, and append it to the history list. The default filename is ~/.history. This calls read_history() in the underlying library.

class ctypes.c_bool Represent the C bool datatype (more accurately, _Bool from C99). Its value can be True or False, and the constructor accepts any object that has a truth value.

display_name The display name portion of the address, if any, with all quoting removed. If the address does not have a display name, this attribute will be an empty string.

match.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.

random.normalvariate(mu, sigma) Normal distribution. mu is the mean, and sigma is the standard deviation.

origin_server This attribute should be set to a true value if the handler’s _write() and _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 BaseHandler, but false in BaseCGIHandler and CGIHandler.
