bytecode
Python source code is compiled into bytecode, the internal representation
of a Python program in the CPython interpreter. The bytecode is also
- cached in ``.pyc`` and ``.pyo`` files so that executing the same file is
+ cached in ``.pyc`` files so that executing the same file is
faster the second time (recompilation from source to bytecode can be
avoided). This "intermediate language" is said to run on a
:term:`virtual machine` that executes the machine code corresponding to
added to the archive, compiling if necessary.
If *pathname* is a file, the filename must end with :file:`.py`, and
- just the (corresponding :file:`\*.py[co]`) file is added at the top level
+ just the (corresponding :file:`\*.pyc`) file is added at the top level
(no path information). If *pathname* is a file that does not end with
:file:`.py`, a :exc:`RuntimeError` will be raised. If it is a directory,
and the directory is not a package directory, then all the files
- :file:`\*.py[co]` are added at the top level. If the directory is a
- package directory, then all :file:`\*.py[co]` are added under the package
+ :file:`\*.pyc` are added at the top level. If the directory is a
+ package directory, then all :file:`\*.pyc` are added under the package
name as a file path, and if any subdirectories are package directories,
all of these are added recursively.
--------------
This module adds the ability to import Python modules (:file:`\*.py`,
-:file:`\*.py[co]`) and packages from ZIP-format archives. It is usually not
+:file:`\*.pyc`) and packages from ZIP-format archives. It is usually not
needed to use the :mod:`zipimport` module explicitly; it is automatically used
by the built-in :keyword:`import` mechanism for :data:`sys.path` items that are paths
to ZIP archives.

Options and arguments (and corresponding environment variables):\n\
-b : issue warnings about str(bytes_instance), str(bytearray_instance)\n\
and comparing bytes/bytearray with str. (-bb: issue errors)\n\
--B : don't write .py[co] files on import; also PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE=x\n\

-c cmd : program passed in as string (terminates option list)\n\
-d : debug output from parser; also PYTHONDEBUG=x\n\
-E : ignore PYTHON* environment variables (such as PYTHONPATH)\n\
