| 67 | Python is an interpreted, interactive, object-oriented programming |
| 68 | language that combines remarkable power with very clear syntax. |
| 69 | For an introduction to programming in Python you are referred to the |
| 70 | Python Tutorial. |
| 71 | The Python Library Reference documents built-in and standard types, |
| 72 | constants, functions and modules. |
| 73 | Finally, the Python Reference Manual describes the syntax and |
| 74 | semantics of the core language in (perhaps too) much detail. |

| 79 | Python's basic power can be extended with your own modules written in |
| 80 | C or C++. |
Guido van Rossum | 74faed2 | 1996-07-30 19:27:05 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 81 | On most systems such modules may be dynamically loaded. |
Guido van Rossum | a7925f1 | 1994-01-26 10:20:16 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 82 | Python is also adaptable as an extension language for existing |
| 83 | applications. |
| 84 | See the internal documentation for hints. |

Guido van Rossum | 1378c32 | 2000-12-19 03:21:54 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 162 | .BI "\-W " argument |
| 163 | Warning control. Python sometimes prints warning message to |
| 164 | .IR sys.stderr . |
| 165 | A typical warning message has the following form: |
| 166 | .IB file ":" line ": " category ": " message. |
| 167 | By default, each warning is printed once for each source line where it |
| 168 | occurs. This option controls how often warnings are printed. |
| 169 | Multiple |
| 170 | .B \-W |
| 171 | options may be given; when a warning matches more than one |
| 172 | option, the action for the last matching option is performed. |
| 173 | Invalid |
| 174 | .B \-W |
| 175 | options are ignored (a warning message is printed about invalid |
| 176 | options when the first warning is issued). Warnings can also be |
| 177 | controlled from within a Python program using the |
| 178 | .I warnings |
| 179 | module. |
| 180 | |
| 181 | The simplest form of |
| 182 | .I argument |
| 183 | is one of the following |
| 184 | .I action |
| 185 | strings (or a unique abbreviation): |
| 186 | .B ignore |
| 187 | to ignore all warnings; |
| 188 | .B default |
| 189 | to explicitly request the default behavior (printing each warning once |
| 190 | per source line); |
| 191 | .B all |
| 192 | to print a warning each time it occurs (this may generate many |
| 193 | messages if a warning is triggered repeatedly for the same source |
Fred Drake | bd2e3b0 | 2001-07-26 21:25:58 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 194 | line, such as inside a loop); |
Guido van Rossum | 1378c32 | 2000-12-19 03:21:54 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 195 | .B module |
Georg Brandl | eeb575f | 2009-06-24 06:42:05 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 196 | to print each warning only the first time it occurs in each |
Guido van Rossum | 1378c32 | 2000-12-19 03:21:54 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 197 | module; |
| 198 | .B once |
| 199 | to print each warning only the first time it occurs in the program; or |
| 200 | .B error |
| 201 | to raise an exception instead of printing a warning message. |
| 202 | |
| 203 | The full form of |
| 204 | .I argument |
| 205 | is |
| 206 | .IB action : message : category : module : line. |
| 207 | Here, |
| 208 | .I action |
| 209 | is as explained above but only applies to messages that match the |
| 210 | remaining fields. Empty fields match all values; trailing empty |
| 211 | fields may be omitted. The |
| 212 | .I message |
| 213 | field matches the start of the warning message printed; this match is |
| 214 | case-insensitive. The |
| 215 | .I category |
| 216 | field matches the warning category. This must be a class name; the |
| 217 | match test whether the actual warning category of the message is a |
| 218 | subclass of the specified warning category. The full class name must |
| 219 | be given. The |
| 220 | .I module |
| 221 | field matches the (fully-qualified) module name; this match is |
| 222 | case-sensitive. The |
| 223 | .I line |
| 224 | field matches the line number, where zero matches all line numbers and |
| 225 | is thus equivalent to an omitted line number. |

Guido van Rossum | a7925f1 | 1994-01-26 10:20:16 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 231 | .SH INTERPRETER INTERFACE |
| 232 | The interpreter interface resembles that of the UNIX shell: when |
| 233 | called with standard input connected to a tty device, it prompts for |
| 234 | commands and executes them until an EOF is read; when called with a |
| 235 | file name argument or with a file as standard input, it reads and |
| 236 | executes a |
| 237 | .I script |
| 238 | from that file; |
| 239 | when called with |
| 240 | .B \-c |
| 241 | .I command, |
| 242 | it executes the Python statement(s) given as |
| 243 | .I command. |
| 244 | Here |
| 245 | .I command |
| 246 | may contain multiple statements separated by newlines. |
| 247 | Leading whitespace is significant in Python statements! |
Matthias Klose | 31a58df | 2005-03-20 14:16:03 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 248 | In non-interactive mode, the entire input is parsed before it is |
Guido van Rossum | a7925f1 | 1994-01-26 10:20:16 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 249 | executed. |
| 250 | .PP |
| 251 | If available, the script name and additional arguments thereafter are |
| 252 | passed to the script in the Python variable |
| 253 | .I sys.argv , |
| 254 | which is a list of strings (you must first |
| 255 | .I import sys |
| 256 | to be able to access it). |
| 257 | If no script name is given, |
Guido van Rossum | f4a090d | 2000-09-01 20:36:34 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 258 | .I sys.argv[0] |
| 259 | is an empty string; if |
Guido van Rossum | a7925f1 | 1994-01-26 10:20:16 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 260 | .B \-c |
| 261 | is used, |
| 262 | .I sys.argv[0] |
| 263 | contains the string |
| 264 | .I '-c'. |
Guido van Rossum | 74faed2 | 1996-07-30 19:27:05 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 265 | Note that options interpreted by the Python interpreter itself |
Guido van Rossum | a7925f1 | 1994-01-26 10:20:16 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 266 | are not placed in |
| 267 | .I sys.argv. |
| 268 | .PP |
| 269 | In interactive mode, the primary prompt is `>>>'; the second prompt |
| 270 | (which appears when a command is not complete) is `...'. |
| 271 | The prompts can be changed by assignment to |
| 272 | .I sys.ps1 |
| 273 | or |
| 274 | .I sys.ps2. |
| 275 | The interpreter quits when it reads an EOF at a prompt. |
| 276 | When an unhandled exception occurs, a stack trace is printed and |
| 277 | control returns to the primary prompt; in non-interactive mode, the |
| 278 | interpreter exits after printing the stack trace. |
| 279 | The interrupt signal raises the |
| 280 | .I Keyboard\%Interrupt |
| 281 | exception; other UNIX signals are not caught (except that SIGPIPE is |
| 282 | sometimes ignored, in favor of the |
| 283 | .I IOError |
| 284 | exception). Error messages are written to stderr. |
| 285 | .SH FILES AND DIRECTORIES |

| 320 | The format is the same as the shell's $PATH: one or more directory |
| 321 | pathnames separated by colons. |
Matthias Klose | 31a58df | 2005-03-20 14:16:03 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 322 | Non-existent directories are silently ignored. |
Guido van Rossum | 4cf4de5 | 1997-09-08 04:06:15 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 323 | The default search path is installation dependent, but generally |
Fred Drake | 4c9be9d | 1999-08-20 13:10:20 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 324 | begins with ${prefix}/lib/python<version> (see PYTHONHOME above). |
Guido van Rossum | 4cf4de5 | 1997-09-08 04:06:15 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 325 | The default search path is always appended to $PYTHONPATH. |
Guido van Rossum | 74faed2 | 1996-07-30 19:27:05 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 326 | If a script argument is given, the directory containing the script is |
| 327 | inserted in the path in front of $PYTHONPATH. |
Guido van Rossum | a7925f1 | 1994-01-26 10:20:16 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 328 | The search path can be manipulated from within a Python program as the |
| 329 | variable |
| 330 | .I sys.path . |
| 331 | .IP PYTHONSTARTUP |
| 332 | If this is the name of a readable file, the Python commands in that |
| 333 | file are executed before the first prompt is displayed in interactive |
| 334 | mode. |
| 335 | The file is executed in the same name space where interactive commands |
| 336 | are executed so that objects defined or imported in it can be used |
| 337 | without qualification in the interactive session. |
| 338 | You can also change the prompts |
| 339 | .I sys.ps1 |
| 340 | and |
| 341 | .I sys.ps2 |
| 342 | in this file. |

| 344 | Set this to a non-empty string to cause the \fItime\fP module to |
| 345 | require dates specified as strings to include 4-digit years, otherwise |
| 346 | 2-digit years are converted based on rules described in the \fItime\fP |

| 349 | If this is set to a non-empty string it is equivalent to specifying |
| 350 | the \fB\-O\fP option. If set to an integer, it is equivalent to |
| 351 | specifying \fB\-O\fP multiple times. |
