Wondering if someone would help me to better understand tempfile. I
attempt to create a tempfile, write to it, read it, but it is not
behaving as I expect. Any tips?

Yes, I knew this. Good call, it was just a bad copy and paste example
of lines that showed up close together in a file. My apologies.

>>> tmp = tempfile.mktemp()
>>> tmp
'/tmp/

Ah yes... thank you:
>>> import tempfile
>>> x = tempfile.TemporaryFile()
>>> x.write("test")
>>> print x.read()
>>> x.seek(0)
>>> print x.read()

You need to seek to the part of the file you want to read:
>>> x = temp
import tempfile
tmp = tempfile.mktemp()
import os
os.remove(tmp)
