The platform module provides information about the underlying system platform
system structure
32-bit or 64-bit
>>>import platform
>>> platform.architecture()
('64bit','ELF')# python 3.3.2+ 64 bits on debian jessie 64 bits
('32bit','WindowsPE')# python 3.3.2 32 bits on windows 8.1 64 bits
('64bit','WindowsPE')# python 3.3.2 64 bits on wndows 8.1 64 bits
('64bit', '')# python 3.4.1 64 bits on mac os x 10.9.4
ELF and WindowsPE are executable file formats
Operating system
linux, mac or windows
>>> platform.system()
