Python file method isatty() returns True if the file is connected (is associated with a terminal device) to a tty(-like) device, else False.
Following is the syntax for isatty() method:
fileObject.isatty();
This method returns true if the file is connected (is associated with a terminal device) to a tty(-like) device, else false.
The following example shows the usage of close() method.
#!/usr/bin/python # Open a file fo = open("foo.txt", "wb") print "Name of the file: ", fo.name ret = fo.isatty() print "Return value : ", ret # Close opend file fo.close()
