:mod:!crypt --- Function to check Unix passwords

.. module:: crypt :synopsis: Removed in 3.13. :deprecated:

.. deprecated-removed:: 3.11 3.13

This module is no longer part of the Python standard library. It was :ref:removed in Python 3.13 <whatsnew313-pep594> after being deprecated in Python 3.11. The removal was decided in :pep:594.

Applications can use the :mod:hashlib module from the standard library. Other possible replacements are third-party libraries from PyPI: :pypi:legacycrypt, :pypi:bcrypt, or :pypi:argon2-cffi. These are not supported or maintained by the Python core team.

The last version of Python that provided the :mod:!crypt module was Python 3.12 <https://docs.python.org/3.12/library/crypt.html>_.
