Handle CTRL+C in Python

handle-ctrl-c.py

#!/usr/bin/env python

import signal
import sys

def signal_handler(signal, frame):
  sys.exit(0)

signal.signal(signal.SIGINT, signal_handler)

Thank you for having the simplest solution to handing ctrl+c. People out there complicate things so much! haha

cool

Thank you for your code. It works perfectly.

However, I would like to ask you about the function signal_handler. Do we need to define the parameters signal and frame into that function?

What are the meanings of signal and frame in the function?

Thank you in advance.

signal_handler is just the fuction you are passing to signal.signal(..) in line 9.
This was done a long time ago, but those are just the parameters that the runtime give you so you can have more context about the signal.

Yes. I got your points. Thank you so much for this solution.

Perfect solution, still working with python 3.8, thanks.

Can confirm, still works.
