:mod:`platform` -- access to underlying platforms identifying data
===================================================================
.. module:: platform
:synopsis: access to underlying platforms identifying data
|see_cpython_module| :mod:`python:platform`.
This module tries to retrieve as much platform-identifying data as possible. It
makes this information available via function APIs.
Functions
---------
.. function:: platform()
Returns a string identifying the underlying platform. This string is composed
of several substrings in the following order, delimited by dashes (``-``):
- the name of the platform system (e.g. Unix, Windows or MicroPython)
- the MicroPython version
- the architecture of the platform
- the version of the underlying platform
- the concatenation of the name of the libc that MicroPython is linked to
and its corresponding version.
For example, this could be
``"MicroPython-1.20.0-xtensa-IDFv4.2.4-with-newlib3.0.0"``.
.. function:: python_compiler()
Returns a string identifying the compiler used for compiling MicroPython.
.. function:: libc_ver()
Returns a tuple of strings *(lib, version)*, where *lib* is the name of the
libc that MicroPython is linked to, and *version* the corresponding version
of this libc.
