<p><tt>This module provides access to some objects used or maintained by the<br>
interpreter and to functions that interact strongly with the interpreter.<br>
<br>
Dynamic objects:<br>
<br>
argv -- command line arguments; argv[0] is the script pathname if known<br>
path -- module search path; path[0] is the script directory, else ''<br>
modules -- dictionary of loaded modules<br>
<br>
displayhook -- called to show results in an interactive session<br>
excepthook -- called to handle any uncaught exception other than SystemExit<br>
To customize printing in an interactive session or to install a custom<br>
top-level exception handler, assign other functions to replace these.<br>
<br>
exitfunc -- if sys.exitfunc exists, this routine is called when Python exits<br>
Assigning to sys.exitfunc is deprecated; use the atexit module instead.<br>
<br>
stdin -- standard input file object; used by raw_input() and input()<br>
stdout -- standard output file object; used by the print statement<br>
stderr -- standard error object; used for error messages<br>
By assigning other file objects (or objects that behave like files)<br>
to these, it is possible to redirect all of the interpreter's I/O.<br>
<br>
last_type -- type of last uncaught exception<br>
last_value -- value of last uncaught exception<br>
last_traceback -- traceback of last uncaught exception<br>
These three are only available in an interactive session after a<br>
traceback has been printed.<br>
<br>
exc_type -- type of exception currently being handled<br>
exc_value -- value of exception currently being handled<br>
exc_traceback -- traceback of exception currently being handled<br>
The function <a href="#-exc_info">exc_info</a>() should be used instead of these three,<br>
because it is thread-safe.<br>
<br>
Static objects:<br>
<br>
maxint -- the largest supported integer (the smallest is -maxint-1)<br>
maxsize -- the largest supported length of containers.<br>
maxunicode -- the largest supported character<br>
builtin_module_names -- tuple of module names built into this interpreter<br>
version -- the version of this interpreter as a string<br>
version_info -- version information as a tuple<br>
hexversion -- version information encoded as a single integer<br>
copyright -- copyright notice pertaining to this interpreter<br>
platform -- platform identifier<br>
executable -- pathname of this Python interpreter<br>
prefix -- prefix used to find the Python library<br>
exec_prefix -- prefix used to find the machine-specific Python library<br>
__stdin__ -- the original stdin; don't touch!<br>
__stdout__ -- the original stdout; don't touch!<br>
__stderr__ -- the original stderr; don't touch!<br>
__displayhook__ -- the original displayhook; don't touch!<br>
__excepthook__ -- the original excepthook; don't touch!<br>
<br>

<dl><dt><a name="-call_tracing"><strong>call_tracing</strong></a>(...)</dt><dd><tt><a href="#-call_tracing">call_tracing</a>(func, args) -> object<br>
<br>
Call func(*args), while tracing is enabled. The tracing state is<br>
saved, and restored afterwards. This is intended to be called from<br>
a debugger from a checkpoint, to recursively debug some other code.</tt></dd></dl>
<dl><dt><a name="-callstats"><strong>callstats</strong></a>(...)</dt><dd><tt><a href="#-callstats">callstats</a>() -> tuple of integers<br>
<br>
Return a tuple of function call statistics, if CALL_PROFILE was defined<br>
when Python was built. Otherwise, return None.<br>
<br>
When enabled, this function returns detailed, implementation-specific<br>
details about the number of function calls executed. The return value is<br>
a 11-tuple where the entries in the tuple are counts of:<br>
0. all function calls<br>
1. calls to PyFunction_Type objects<br>
2. PyFunction calls that do not create an argument tuple<br>
3. PyFunction calls that do not create an argument tuple<br>
and bypass PyEval_EvalCodeEx()<br>
4. PyMethod calls<br>
5. PyMethod calls on bound methods<br>
6. PyType calls<br>
7. PyCFunction calls<br>
8. generator calls<br>

<dl><dt><a name="-exc_clear"><strong>exc_clear</strong></a>(...)</dt><dd><tt><a href="#-exc_clear">exc_clear</a>() -> None<br>
<br>
Clear global information on the current exception. Subsequent calls to<br>
<a href="#-exc_info">exc_info</a>() will return (None,None,None) until another exception is raised<br>
in the current thread or the execution stack returns to a frame where<br>
another exception is being handled.</tt></dd></dl>
<dl><dt><a name="-exc_info"><strong>exc_info</strong></a>(...)</dt><dd><tt><a href="#-exc_info">exc_info</a>() -> (type, value, traceback)<br>

<dl><dt><a name="-exit"><strong>exit</strong></a>(...)</dt><dd><tt><a href="#-exit">exit</a>([status])<br>
<br>
Exit the interpreter by raising SystemExit(status).<br>
If the status is omitted or None, it defaults to zero (i.e., success).<br>
If the status is numeric, it will be used as the system exit status.<br>
If it is another kind of object, it will be printed and the system<br>
exit status will be one (i.e., failure).</tt></dd></dl>
<dl><dt><a name="-getcheckinterval"><strong>getcheckinterval</strong></a>(...)</dt><dd><tt><a href="#-getcheckinterval">getcheckinterval</a>() -> current check interval; see <a href="#-setcheckinterval">setcheckinterval</a>().</tt></dd></dl>
<dl><dt><a name="-getdefaultencoding"><strong>getdefaultencoding</strong></a>(...)</dt><dd><tt><a href="#-getdefaultencoding">getdefaultencoding</a>() -> string<br>
<br>
Return the current default string encoding used by the Unicode <br>
implementation.</tt></dd></dl>
<dl><dt><a name="-getdlopenflags"><strong>getdlopenflags</strong></a>(...)</dt><dd><tt><a href="#-getdlopenflags">getdlopenflags</a>() -> int<br>

<dl><dt><a name="-getrecursionlimit"><strong>getrecursionlimit</strong></a>(...)</dt><dd><tt><a href="#-getrecursionlimit">getrecursionlimit</a>()<br>
<br>
Return the current value of the recursion limit, the maximum depth<br>
of the Python interpreter stack. This limit prevents infinite<br>
recursion from causing an overflow of the C stack and crashing Python.</tt></dd></dl>
<dl><dt><a name="-getrefcount"><strong>getrefcount</strong></a>(...)</dt><dd><tt><a href="#-getrefcount">getrefcount</a>(object) -> integer<br>
<br>
Return the reference count of object. The count returned is generally<br>
one higher than you might expect, because it includes the (temporary)<br>
reference as an argument to <a href="#-getrefcount">getrefcount</a>().</tt></dd></dl>
<dl><dt><a name="-getsizeof"><strong>getsizeof</strong></a>(...)</dt><dd><tt><a href="#-getsizeof">getsizeof</a>(object, default) -> int<br>

<br>
Tell the Python interpreter to check for asynchronous events every<br>
n instructions. This also affects how often thread switches occur.</tt></dd></dl>
<dl><dt><a name="-setdlopenflags"><strong>setdlopenflags</strong></a>(...)</dt><dd><tt><a href="#-setdlopenflags">setdlopenflags</a>(n) -> None<br>
<br>
Set the flags that will be used for dlopen() calls. Among other<br>
things, this will enable a lazy resolving of symbols when importing<br>
a module, if called as sys.<a href="#-setdlopenflags">setdlopenflags</a>(0)<br>
To share symbols across extension modules, call as<br>
sys.<a href="#-setdlopenflags">setdlopenflags</a>(dl.RTLD_NOW|dl.RTLD_GLOBAL)</tt></dd></dl>
<dl><dt><a name="-setprofile"><strong>setprofile</strong></a>(...)</dt><dd><tt><a href="#-setprofile">setprofile</a>(function)<br>
<br>
Set the profiling function. It will be called on each function call<br>
and return. See the profiler chapter in the library manual.</tt></dd></dl>
<dl><dt><a name="-setrecursionlimit"><strong>setrecursionlimit</strong></a>(...)</dt><dd><tt><a href="#-setrecursionlimit">setrecursionlimit</a>(n)<br>
<br>
Set the maximum depth of the Python interpreter stack to n. This<br>
limit prevents infinite recursion from causing an overflow of the C<br>
stack and crashing Python. The highest possible limit is platform-<br>
dependent.</tt></dd></dl>
<dl><dt><a name="-settrace"><strong>settrace</strong></a>(...)</dt><dd><tt><a href="#-settrace">settrace</a>(function)<br>
<br>
Set the global debug tracing function. It will be called on each<br>
function call. See the debugger chapter in the library manual.</tt></dd></dl>
