The :mod:`atexit` module defines functions to register and unregister cleanup
functions. Functions thus registered are automatically executed upon normal
interpreter termination. The order in which the functions are called is not
defined; if you have cleanup operations that depend on each other, you should
wrap them in a function and register that one. This keeps :mod:`atexit` simple.
interpreter termination. :mod:`atexit` runs these functions in the *reverse*
order in which they were registered; if you register ``A``, ``B``, and ``C``,
at interpreter termination time they will be run in the order ``C``, ``B``,
``A``.
Note: the functions registered via this module are not called when the program
is killed by a signal not handled by Python, when a Python fatal internal error
is detected, or when :func:`os._exit` is called.
