The functions are contained in module os. Function os.path.getmtime() gives you the last modified time in seconds since the beginning of 1/1/1970 (epoch). You have to do some formatting with module time functions to make it readable for the ordinary mortal.

The size of the file is returned by os.path.getsize() in bytes, convert to kilobytes and format the result.
