The :mod:`wave` module provides a convenient interface to the WAV sound format.
The :mod:`wave` module provides a convenient interface to the Waveform Audio
"WAVE" (or "WAV") file format.
Only files using ``WAVE_FORMAT_PCM`` are supported. Note that this does not
include files using ``WAVE_FORMAT_EXTENSIBLE`` even if the subformat is PCM.

Wave_read Objects
-----------------

Wave_read objects, as returned by :func:`.open`, have the following methods:
.. class:: Wave_read

Read a WAV file.

.. method:: Wave_read.close()
Wave_read objects, as returned by :func:`.open`, have the following methods:

Close the stream if it was opened by :mod:`wave`, and make the instance
unusable. This is called automatically on object collection.

.. method:: close()

.. method:: Wave_read.getnchannels()
Close the stream if it was opened by :mod:`wave`, and make the instance
unusable. This is called automatically on object collection.

Returns number of audio channels (``1`` for mono, ``2`` for stereo).

.. method:: getnchannels()

.. method:: Wave_read.getsampwidth()
Returns number of audio channels (``1`` for mono, ``2`` for stereo).

Returns sample width in bytes.

.. method:: getsampwidth()

.. method:: Wave_read.getframerate()
Returns sample width in bytes.

Returns sampling frequency.

.. method:: getframerate()

.. method:: Wave_read.getnframes()
Returns sampling frequency.

Returns number of audio frames.

.. method:: getnframes()

.. method:: Wave_read.getcomptype()
Returns number of audio frames.

Returns compression type (``'NONE'`` is the only supported type).

.. method:: getcomptype()

.. method:: Wave_read.getcompname()
Returns compression type (``'NONE'`` is the only supported type).

Human-readable version of :meth:`getcomptype`. Usually ``'not compressed'``
parallels ``'NONE'``.

.. method:: getcompname()

.. method:: Wave_read.getparams()
Human-readable version of :meth:`getcomptype`. Usually ``'not compressed'``
parallels ``'NONE'``.

Returns a :func:`~collections.namedtuple` ``(nchannels, sampwidth,
framerate, nframes, comptype, compname)``, equivalent to output of the
:meth:`get\*` methods.

.. method:: getparams()

.. method:: Wave_read.readframes(n)
Returns a :func:`~collections.namedtuple` ``(nchannels, sampwidth,
framerate, nframes, comptype, compname)``, equivalent to output of the
``get*()`` methods.

Reads and returns at most *n* frames of audio, as a :class:`bytes` object.

.. method:: readframes(n)

.. method:: Wave_read.rewind()
Reads and returns at most *n* frames of audio, as a :class:`bytes` object.

Rewind the file pointer to the beginning of the audio stream.

The following two methods are defined for compatibility with the :mod:`aifc`
module, and don't do anything interesting.
.. method:: rewind()

Rewind the file pointer to the beginning of the audio stream.

.. method:: Wave_read.getmarkers()
The following two methods are defined for compatibility with the :mod:`aifc`
module, and don't do anything interesting.

Returns ``None``.

.. method:: getmarkers()

.. method:: Wave_read.getmark(id)
Returns ``None``.

Raise an error.

The following two methods define a term "position" which is compatible between
them, and is otherwise implementation dependent.
.. method:: getmark(id)

Raise an error.

.. method:: Wave_read.setpos(pos)
The following two methods define a term "position" which is compatible between
them, and is otherwise implementation dependent.

Set the file pointer to the specified position.

.. method:: setpos(pos)

.. method:: Wave_read.tell()
Set the file pointer to the specified position.

Return current file pointer position.

.. method:: tell()

Return current file pointer position.

Wave_write Objects
------------------

For seekable output streams, the ``wave`` header will automatically be updated
to reflect the number of frames actually written. For unseekable streams, the
*nframes* value must be accurate when the first frame data is written. An
accurate *nframes* value can be achieved either by calling
:meth:`~Wave_write.setnframes` or :meth:`~Wave_write.setparams` with the number
of frames that will be written before :meth:`~Wave_write.close` is called and
then using :meth:`~Wave_write.writeframesraw` to write the frame data, or by
calling :meth:`~Wave_write.writeframes` with all of the frame data to be
written. In the latter case :meth:`~Wave_write.writeframes` will calculate
the number of frames in the data and set *nframes* accordingly before writing
the frame data.

match the number of frames actually written.

Set the number of channels.

.. method:: setnchannels(n)

.. method:: Wave_write.setsampwidth(n)
Set the number of channels.

Set the sample width to *n* bytes.

.. method:: setsampwidth(n)

.. method:: Wave_write.setframerate(n)
Set the sample width to *n* bytes.

Set the frame rate to *n*.

.. versionchanged:: 3.2
A non-integral input to this method is rounded to the nearest
integer.

Set the frame rate to *n*.

A non-integral input to this method is rounded to the nearest
integer.

Set the number of frames to *n*. This will be changed later if the number
of frames actually written is different (this update attempt will
raise an error if the output stream is not seekable).

.. method:: Wave_write.setcomptype(type, name)
Set the number of frames to *n*. This will be changed later if the number
of frames actually written is different (this update attempt will
raise an error if the output stream is not seekable).

Set the compression type and description. At the moment, only compression type
``NONE`` is supported, meaning no compression.

.. method:: setcomptype(type, name)

.. method:: Wave_write.setparams(tuple)
Set the compression type and description. At the moment, only compression type
``NONE`` is supported, meaning no compression.

The *tuple* should be ``(nchannels, sampwidth, framerate, nframes, comptype,
compname)``, with values valid for the :meth:`set\*` methods. Sets all
parameters.

.. method:: setparams(tuple)

.. method:: Wave_write.tell()
The *tuple* should be ``(nchannels, sampwidth, framerate, nframes, comptype,

Return current position in the file, with the same disclaimer for the

Return current position in the file, with the same disclaimer for the

Write audio frames and make sure *nframes* is correct. It will raise an

previously set value for *nframes*.
