[Tutor] Python equivalent of "kill -0 PID"

[Sean Carolan]

In bash you can do this to see if a process is running:

[scarolan at kurobox:~/bin]$ kill -0 24275
[scarolan at kurobox:~/bin]$ echo $?
0

Is there a python equivalent?  I tried using os.kill() but did not see
any way to capture the output.
