Page is http://docs.python.org/3/library/tempfile.html#module-tempfile. The code in question currently reads: >>> f = NamedTemporaryFile(delete=False) >>> f <open file '', mode 'w+b' at 0x384698> >>> f.name '/var/folders/5q/5qTPn6xq2RaWqk+1Ytw3-U+++TI/-Tmp-/tmpG7V1Y0' >>> f.write("Hello World!\n") >>> f.close() >>> os.unlink(f.name) >>> os.path.exists(f.name) False It should read: >>> import os >>> from tempfile import NamedTemporaryFile >>> f = NamedTemporaryFile(delete=False) >>> f <tempfile._TemporaryFileWrapper object at 0x29bfc50> >>> f.name '/tmp/tmpdxd_85' >>> f.write("Hello World!\n".encode()) 13 >>> f.close() >>> os.unlink(f.name) >>> os.path.exists(f.name) False
