.. function:: compress(data[, level])
.. function:: compress(data, level=-1)
Compresses the bytes in *data*, returning a bytes object containing compressed data.
*level* is an integer from ``0`` to ``9`` controlling the level of compression;
*level* is an integer from ``0`` to ``9`` or ``-1`` controlling the level of compression;
``1`` is fastest and produces the least compression, ``9`` is slowest and
produces the most. ``0`` is no compression. The default value is ``6``.
produces the most. ``0`` is no compression. The default value is ``-1``
(Z_DEFAULT_COMPRESSION). Z_DEFAULT_COMPRESSION represents a default
compromise between speed and compression (currently equivalent to level 6).
Raises the :exc:`error` exception if any error occurs.

Keyword arguments are now supported.
