built-in function

Return to built-in method

Python built-in function (Python BIF) - “A function bundled with the Python interpreter, coded in the implementation language of the interpreter (i.e., C for CPython; Java for Jython, and so on). The term often refers only to the functions that don’t need to be imported, documented in Chapter 2, ”Built-in Functions,“ of The Python Standard Library Reference. However, built-in modules like sys, math, re, etc. also contain built-in functions.” (FlntPy 2022)
