<p id="index-0">These APIs are a minimal emulation of the Python 2 C API for built-in file
objects, which used to rely on the buffered I/O (<code class="xref c c-type docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">FILE*</span></code>) support
from the C standard library. In Python 3, files and streams use the new
<a class="reference internal" href="../library/io.html#module-io" title="io: Core tools for working with streams."><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">io</span></code></a> module, which defines several layers over the low-level unbuffered
I/O of the operating system. The functions described below are
convenience C wrappers over these new APIs, and meant mostly for internal
error reporting in the interpreter; third-party code is advised to access
the <a class="reference internal" href="../library/io.html#module-io" title="io: Core tools for working with streams."><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">io</span></code></a> APIs instead.</p>
