Most (all?) things in "os" are access to the operating system functions rather than implemented in python. So yes, you're correct. unlink() is the OS call to remove a file and it often fails when handed a directory. Python isn't really doing anything here other than handing the structure over to the OS and handing back any success/failure information.
