Python determines operating system type code sharing

Often we need to write cross-platform scripts, but because of the differences between platforms, we have to get the platform (operating system type) we are currently working on.

The code is as follows:

import platform
def TestPlatform():

    print ("----------Operation System--------------------------")

    #Windows will be : (32bit, WindowsPE)

    #Linux will be : (32bit, ELF)

    print(platform.architecture())
    #Windows will be : Windows-XP-5.1.2600-SP3 or Windows-post2008Server-6.1.7600

    #Linux will be : Linux-2.6.18-128.el5-i686-with-redhat-5.3-Final

    print(platform.platform())
    #Windows will be : Windows

    #Linux will be : Linux

    print(platform.system())
    print ("--------------Python Version-------------------------")

    #Windows and Linux will be : 3.1.1 or 3.1.3

    print(platform.python_version())
def UsePlatform():

  sysstr = platform.system()

  if(sysstr =="Windows"):

    print ("Call Windows tasks")

  elif(sysstr == "Linux"):

    print ("Call Linux tasks")

  else:

    print ("Other System tasks")

    

UsePlatform()
