python系统模块

Python中大多数系统接口都集中在两个模块:sys和os.这么说有点过于简单化 还有一些其他的表转模块也属于这个领域他们包括:

glob 用于文件名的扩展

socket 用于网络连接和进程间通信（IPC）

threading,_threading,queue 用于运行和同步话并发线程

time，timeit 用于获取系统时间相关细节。

subprocess,multiprocessing 用于启动和控制并行进程

signal,select,shutil,tempfile 用于多种系统相关任务

还有诸如pySerial(一种串行端口接口)，Pexpect（一个用于控制程序间对话的类Expect系统） 甚至TWisted(一种网络框架) 等等第三方扩展包也归入系统编程领域。另外 一些内置函数实际上也是系统接口 例如open函数 就是文件系统接口 但大体而言sys和os模块一起组成了pYthon内置系统工具的核心部分

从原则上讲 sys负责导出与python解释器本身相关的组件（如模块搜索路径） os则包含于python所在底层操作系统相对应的变量和函数 实践中这种区别并不总是这么明显（如sys包含了标准输入输出流） 但也可以说它们与操作系统模式有关

获取模块文档

学习用python来编写系统在很大程度上就是学习python的系统模块

例如我们要知道一个内置模块导出的所有东西 可以在库手册里阅读相关条目 也可以阅读它的源码 或者交互获取它的属性列表和文档字符串 

我们导入ptyhon3.1sys模块 看一看它为我们提供了什么好东西

dir函数会简单返回一个列表 其中包含了带属性队形的所有属性的字符串名称 这是一种在交互提示符下唤醒对模块的记忆便捷方式 

例如dir函数结果中有version的存在 我们得一知道有一个sys.version

DESCRIPTION
This module provides access to some objects used or maintained by the
interpreter and to functions that interact strongly with the interpreter.

Dynamic objects:

argv -- command line arguments; argv[0] is the script pathname if known
path -- module search path; path[0] is the script directory, else ''
modules -- dictionary of loaded modules

help函数是PyDoc系统提供的接口之一 PyDoc系统是python自带的标准库代码 可将对象相关的文档 呈现为格式化后的形式 这种格式化可以是类似Unix里的手册页 便于帮助使用 也是翻阅相关书籍和手册之前的最后一招。
