Return Type: This method returns a Boolean value of class bool. This method returns True if system supports Unicode string as filename otherwise returns False.

Code: use of os.path.supports_unicode_filenames object




# Python program to explain os.path.supports_unicode_filenames object 
    
# importing os module 
import os
  
# Check whether an arbitrary Unicode
# string can be used as
# a filename or not 
support = os.path.supports_unicode_filenames
  
  
# Print the result
print(support)
