Python3 os.stat_float_times() Method

Python3 OS File/Directory Methods

Overview

The os.stat_float_times() method is used to determine whether stat_result displays timestamps as float objects.

Syntax

stat_float_times()The method syntax is as follows:

os.stat_float_times([newvalue])

Parameters

• newvalue-- If True, calling stat() returns floats; if False, calling stat returns ints. If the argument is omitted, returns the current setting.

Return Value

Returns True or False.

Example

The following example demonstrates the use of the stat_float_times() method:

#!/usr/bin/python3

import os, sys

# Stat 信息
statinfo = os.stat('a2.py')

print (statinfo)
statinfo = os.stat_float_times()
print (statinfo)

The output of the above program is:

posix.stat_result(st_mode=33188, st_ino=3940649674337682L, st_dev=277923425L, 
st_nlink=1, st_uid=400, st_gid=401, st_size=335L, st_atime=1330498089, st_mtime=13
30498089, st_ctime=1330498089)
True
