SSLContext.set_ecdh_curve(curve_name) Set the curve name for Elliptic Curve-based Diffie-Hellman (ECDH) key exchange. ECDH is significantly faster than regular DH while arguably as secure. The curve_name parameter should be a string describing a well-known elliptic curve, for example prime256v1 for a widely supported curve. This setting doesn’t apply to client sockets. You can also use the OP_SINGLE_ECDH_USE option to further improve security. This method is not available if HAS_ECDH is Fals

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

codecs.open(filename, mode='r', encoding=None, errors='strict', buffering=1) Open an encoded file using the given mode and return an instance of StreamReaderWriter, providing transparent encoding/decoding. The default file mode is 'r', meaning to open the file in read mode. Note Underlying encoded files are always opened in binary mode. No automatic conversion of '\n' is done on reading and writing. The mode argument may be any binary mode acceptable to the built-in open() function; the 'b'

NNTP.xover(start, end, *, file=None) Send an XOVER command. start and end are article numbers delimiting the range of articles to select. The return value is the same of for over(). It is recommended to use over() instead, since it will automatically use the newer OVER command if available.

HTTPConnection.set_tunnel(host, port=None, headers=None) Set the host and the port for HTTP Connect Tunnelling. This allows running the connection through a proxy server. The host and port arguments specify the endpoint of the tunneled connection (i.e. the address included in the CONNECT request, not the address of the proxy server). The headers argument should be a mapping of extra HTTP headers to send with the CONNECT request. For example, to tunnel through a HTTPS proxy server running loc

exception ssl.SSLError Raised to signal an error from the underlying SSL implementation (currently provided by the OpenSSL library). 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 OSError. The error code and message of SSLError instances are provided by the OpenSSL library. Changed in version 3.3: SSLError used to be a subtype of socket.error. library A string mnemon

platform.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 sizeof(pointer) (or sizeof(long) on

class wsgiref.simple_server.WSGIServer(server_address, RequestHandlerClass) Create a WSGIServer instance. server_address should be a (host,port) tuple, and RequestHandlerClass should be the subclass of http.server.BaseHTTPRequestHandler that will be used to process requests. You do not normally need to call this constructor, as the make_server() function can handle all the details for you. WSGIServer is a subclass of http.server.HTTPServer, so all of its methods (such as serve_forever() and

longMessage If set to True then any explicit failure message you pass in to the 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 True. If set to False then a custom message pass

bytes.upper() bytearray.upper() Return a copy of the sequence with all the lowercase ASCII characters converted to their corresponding uppercase counterpart. For example: >>> b'Hello World'.upper() b'HELLO WORLD' Lowercase ASCII characters are those byte values in the sequence b'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'. Uppercase ASCII characters are those byte values in the sequence b'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ'. Note The bytearray version of this method does not operate in place - it always p
