# clear_cache

scipy.datasets.clear_cache(datasets=None)

  Cleans the scipy datasets cache directory.

  If a scipy.datasets method or a list/tuple of the same is provided, then clear_cache removes all the data files associated to the passed dataset method callable(s).

  By default, it removes all the cached data files.

  Parameters:
    datasetscallable or list/tuple of callable or None

  Examples

      >>> from scipy import datasets
      >>> ascent_array = datasets.ascent()
      >>> ascent_array.shape
      (512, 512)
      >>> datasets.clear_cache([datasets.ascent])
      Cleaning the file ascent.dat for dataset ascent
