Working With The Built-in OS Module in Python | by Fahadul Shadhin | Python  in Plain English

Want to play with low-level system operations in Python? Don't want to reinvent the wheel?

Python's standard library Generic OS Services series provides powerful tools for manipulating operating system interfaces, file streams, time logging, and even venturing into C territory.

Today, let's talk about what these libraries are, what pain points they can solve for you, plus hands-on code examples, and finally, a pros and cons breakdown that's easy to understand!

Introduction: Why Should You Know These?

You might only know a few tricks like os.listdir, open, time.sleep.

But when projects get complex, logging, configuration, cross-platform information, C interfaces... a whole bunch of pitfalls await you.

Python's standard library Generic OS Services helps you embrace low-level interfaces, file streams, time, logging, platform information, errno, ctypes... all in one package, no more rewriting repetitive code.
