class

stat_result(iterable=(), /)

stat_result: Result from stat, fstat, or lstat.

This object may be accessed either as a tuple of
  (mode, ino, dev, nlink, uid, gid, size, atime, mtime, ctime)
or via the attributes st_mode, st_ino, st_dev, st_nlink, and so on.

Posix/windows: If your platform supports st_blksize, st_blocks, st_rdev,
or st_flags, they are available as attributes only.

See os.stat for more information.

Changed in 3.5, 3.7, 3.8, 3.12

3.5: Windows now returns the file index as st_ino when available.
3.7: Added the st_fstype member to Solaris/derivatives.
3.8: Added the st_reparse_tag member on Windows.
3.8: On Windows, the st_mode member now identifies special files as S_IFCHR, S_IFIFO or S_IFBLK as appropriate.
3.12: On Windows, st_ctime is deprecated. Eventually, it will contain the last metadata change time, for consistency with other platforms, but for now still contains creation time. Use st_birthtime for the creation time. On Windows, st_ino may now be up to 128 bits, depending on the file system. Previously it would not be above 64 bits, and larger file identifiers would be arbitrarily packed. On Windows, st_rdev no longer returns a value. Previously it would contain the same as st_dev, which was incorrect. Added the st_birthtime member on Windows.
