How about,

>>> import sys

    stdin -- standard input file object; used by raw_input() and
input()
    stdout -- standard output file object; used by the print statement
    stderr -- standard error object; used for error messages
      By assigning other file objects (or objects that behave like
files)
      to these, it is possible to redirect all of the interpreter's
I/O.
