## What is the `psutil` module?

The **`psutil` (Python system and process utilities)** is a Python package that retrieves information on ongoing processes and system usage (CPU, memory, storage, network, and sensors). It is mostly used for system monitoring, profiling, restricting process resources, and process management.


The module can be installed via `pip`, as follows:

```
pip install psutil
```


## The `cpu_stats` method

The **`cpu_stats` method** is used to return the following CPU statistics attributes as a named tuple:

- **`ctx_switches`**: This represents the number of context switches since the boot.
- **`interrupts`**: This represents the number of interrupts since boot.
- **`soft_interrupts`**: This represents the number of software interrupts since boot.
- **`syscalls`**: This represents the number of system calls since boot.


## Syntax

```
psutil.cpu_stats()
```

## Parameters
The method has no parameters.

## Example

import psutil

print("The current stats of the CPU are as follows:")
