I am trying to create a temporary file. import tempfile
temp = tempfile.NamedTemporaryFile(suffix='_suffix', prefix='prefix_', dir='/tmp', ) try: print 'temp:', temp print 'temp.name:', temp.name finally: temp.close() But when i do ls /tmp or ls -a /tmp i cannot find the file or if i try to os.remove(temp.name) it shows a message that the file is not found.But print temp and print temp.name show temp: <open file '<fdopen>', mode 'w+b' at 0xb7e84800> temp.name: /home/swamp2/cacsgrad/axs9347/Desktop/prefix_zOfoX__suffix Please help me to fix it.
