import sys
winver = sys.winver print(winver) ```
If you are working with Python on a Windows machine, you may at some point need to determine the version of Windows you are running. Luckily, the sys
module in Python provides a way to obtain this information with the winver
attribute.
The winver
attribute returns a string representation of the Windows version that is currently running. This can be useful when developing applications that have specific requirements based on the operating system.
To use sys.winver
, you need to import the sys
module. Then, simply access the winver
attribute and assign it to a variable. Finally, you can print the value of the variable to see the Windows version.
The code snippet above demonstrates how to use sys.winver
to retrieve the Windows version in Python. After running this code, the Windows version will be printed to the console.
Keep in mind that this code will only work on Windows machines. If you try to run it on a different operating system, such as macOS or Linux, you may encounter an error.
