The Python Library Reference, Release 3.4.1

bin(x)

Convert an integer number to a binary string. The result is a valid Python expression. If x is not a Python

int object, it has to deﬁne an __index__() method that returns an integer.

bool([x ])

Convert a value to a Boolean, using the standard truth testing procedure. If x is false or omitted, this returns

False; otherwise it returns True. bool is also a class, which is a subclass of int (see Numeric Types —

int, ﬂoat, complex). Class bool cannot be subclassed further. Its only instances are False and True (see

Boolean Values).

bytearray([source[, encoding[, errors ]]])

Return a new array of bytes. The bytearray type is a mutable sequence of integers in the range 0 <= x <

256. It has most of the usual methods of mutable sequences, described in Mutable Sequence Types, as well

as most methods that the bytes type has, see Bytes and Bytearray Operations.

The optional source parameter can be used to initialize the array in a few different ways:

•If it is a string, you must also give the encoding (and optionally, errors) parameters; bytearray()

then converts the string to bytes using str.encode().

•If it is an integer, the array will have that size and will be initialized with null bytes.

•If it is an object conforming to the buffer interface, a read-only buffer of the object will be used to

initialize the bytes array.

•If it is an iterable, it must be an iterable of integers in the range 0 <= x < 256, which are used as

the initial contents of the array.

Without an argument, an array of size 0 is created.

See also Binary Sequence Types — bytes, bytearray, memoryview and Bytearray Objects.

bytes([source[, encoding[, errors ]]])

Return a new “bytes” object, which is an immutable sequence of integers in the range 0 <= x < 256.

bytes is an immutable version of bytearray – it has the same non-mutating methods and the same

indexing and slicing behavior.

Accordingly, constructor arguments are interpreted as for bytearray().

Bytes objects can also be created with literals, see strings.

See also Binary Sequence Types — bytes, bytearray, memoryview, Bytes, and Bytes and Bytearray Opera-

tions.

callable(object)

Return True if the object argument appears callable, False if not. If this returns true, it is still possible

that a call fails, but if it is false, calling object will never succeed. Note that classes are callable (calling a

class returns a new instance); instances are callable if their class has a __call__() method.

New in version 3.2: This function was ﬁrst removed in Python 3.0 and then brought back in Python 3.2.

chr(i)

Return the string representing a character whose Unicode codepoint is the integer i. For example, chr(97)

returns the string ’a’. This is the inverse of ord(). The valid range for the argument is from 0 through

1,114,111 (0x10FFFF in base 16). ValueError will be raised if i is outside that range.

classmethod(function)

Return a class method for function.

A class method receives the class as implicit ﬁrst argument, just like an instance method receives the in-

stance. To declare a class method, use this idiom:

class C:

@classmethod

def f(cls, arg1, arg2, ...): ...

6 Chapter 2. Built-in Functions

The Python Library Reference, Release 3.4.1

The @classmethod form is a function decorator – see the description of function deﬁnitions in function

for details.

It can be called either on the class (such as C.f()) or on an instance (such as C().f()). The instance is

ignored except for its class. If a class method is called for a derived class, the derived class object is passed

as the implied ﬁrst argument.

Class methods are different than C++ or Java static methods. If you want those, see staticmethod() in

this section.

For more information on class methods, consult the documentation on the standard type hierarchy in types.

compile(source, ﬁlename, mode, ﬂags=0, dont_inherit=False, optimize=-1)

Compile the source into a code or AST object. Code objects can be executed by exec() or eval().

source can either be a normal string, a byte string, or an AST object. Refer to the ast module documentation

for information on how to work with AST objects.

The ﬁlename argument should give the ﬁle from which the code was read; pass some recognizable value if

it wasn’t read from a ﬁle (’<string>’ is commonly used).

The mode argument speciﬁes what kind of code must be compiled; it can be ’exec’ if source consists of a

sequence of statements, ’eval’ if it consists of a single expression, or ’single’ if it consists of a single

interactive statement (in the latter case, expression statements that evaluate to something other than None

will be printed).

The optional arguments ﬂags and dont_inherit control which future statements (see PEP 236) affect the

compilation of source. If neither is present (or both are zero) the code is compiled with those future state-

ments that are in effect in the code that is calling compile. If the ﬂags argument is given and dont_inherit

is not (or is zero) then the future statements speciﬁed by the ﬂags argument are used in addition to those

that would be used anyway. If dont_inherit is a non-zero integer then the ﬂags argument is it – the future

statements in effect around the call to compile are ignored.

Future statements are speciﬁed by bits which can be bitwise ORed together to specify multiple statements.

The bitﬁeld required to specify a given feature can be found as the compiler_flag attribute on the

_Feature instance in the __future__ module.

The argument optimize speciﬁes the optimization level of the compiler; the default value of -1 selects

the optimization level of the interpreter as given by -O options. Explicit levels are 0 (no optimization;

__debug__ is true), 1 (asserts are removed, __debug__ is false) or 2 (docstrings are removed too).

This function raises SyntaxError if the compiled source is invalid, and TypeError if the source con-

tains null bytes.

Note: When compiling a string with multi-line code in ’single’ or ’eval’ mode, input must be

terminated by at least one newline character. This is to facilitate detection of incomplete and complete

statements in the code module.

Changed in version 3.2: Allowed use of Windows and Mac newlines. Also input in ’exec’ mode does not

have to end in a newline anymore. Added the optimize parameter.

complex([real[, imag ]])

Create a complex number with the value real + imag*j or convert a string or number to a complex number.

If the ﬁrst parameter is a string, it will be interpreted as a complex number and the function must be called

without a second parameter. The second parameter can never be a string. Each argument may be any

numeric type (including complex). If imag is omitted, it defaults to zero and the function serves as a

numeric conversion function like int() and float(). If both arguments are omitted, returns 0j.

Note: When converting from a string, the string must not contain whitespace around the central + or -

operator. For example, complex(’1+2j’) is ﬁne, but complex(’1 + 2j’) raises ValueError.

The complex type is described in Numeric Types — int, ﬂoat, complex.

delattr(object, name)

This is a relative of setattr(). The arguments are an object and a string. The string must be the name

The Python Library Reference, Release 3.4.1

of one of the object’s attributes. The function deletes the named attribute, provided the object allows it. For

example, delattr(x, ’foobar’) is equivalent to del x.foobar.

dict(**kwarg)

dict(mapping, **kwarg)

dict(iterable, **kwarg)

Create a new dictionary. The dict object is the dictionary class. See dict and Mapping Types — dict for

documentation about this class.

For other containers see the built-in list, set, and tuple classes, as well as the collections module.

dir([object ])

Without arguments, return the list of names in the current local scope. With an argument, attempt to return

a list of valid attributes for that object.

If the object has a method named __dir__(), this method will be called and must return the list of

attributes. This allows objects that implement a custom __getattr__() or __getattribute__()

function to customize the way dir() reports their attributes.

If the object does not provide __dir__(), the function tries its best to gather information from the object’s

__dict__ attribute, if deﬁned, and from its type object. The resulting list is not necessarily complete, and

may be inaccurate when the object has a custom __getattr__().

The default dir() mechanism behaves differently with different types of objects, as it attempts to produce

the most relevant, rather than complete, information:

•If the object is a module object, the list contains the names of the module’s attributes.

•If the object is a type or class object, the list contains the names of its attributes, and recursively of the

attributes of its bases.

•Otherwise, the list contains the object’s attributes’ names, the names of its class’s attributes, and re-

cursively of the attributes of its class’s base classes.

The resulting list is sorted alphabetically. For example:

>>> import struct

>>> dir() # show the names in the module namespace

[’__builtins__’, ’__name__’, ’struct’]

>>> dir(struct) # show the names in the struct module

[’Struct’, ’__all__’, ’__builtins__’, ’__cached__’, ’__doc__’, ’__file__’,

’__initializing__’, ’__loader__’, ’__name__’, ’__package__’,

’_clearcache’, ’calcsize’, ’error’, ’pack’, ’pack_into’,

’unpack’, ’unpack_from’]

>>> class Shape:

... def __dir__(self):

... return [’area’, ’perimeter’, ’location’]

>>> s = Shape()

>>> dir(s)

[’area’, ’location’, ’perimeter’]

Note: Because dir() is supplied primarily as a convenience for use at an interactive prompt, it tries to

supply an interesting set of names more than it tries to supply a rigorously or consistently deﬁned set of

names, and its detailed behavior may change across releases. For example, metaclass attributes are not in

the result list when the argument is a class.

divmod(a, b)

Take two (non complex) numbers as arguments and return a pair of numbers consisting of their quotient and

remainder when using integer division. With mixed operand types, the rules for binary arithmetic operators

apply. For integers, the result is the same as (a // b, a % b). For ﬂoating point numbers the result is

(q, a % b), where q is usually math.floor(a / b) but may be 1 less than that. In any case q

8 Chapter 2. Built-in Functions

The Python Library Reference, Release 3.4.1

b + a % b is very close to a, if a % b is non-zero it has the same sign as b, and 0 <= abs(a % b)

< abs(b).

enumerate(iterable, start=0)

Return an enumerate object. iterable must be a sequence, an iterator, or some other object which supports

iteration. The __next__() method of the iterator returned by enumerate() returns a tuple containing

a count (from start which defaults to 0) and the values obtained from iterating over iterable.

>>> seasons = [’Spring’, ’Summer’, ’Fall’, ’Winter’]

>>> list(enumerate(seasons))

[(0, ’Spring’), (1, ’Summer’), (2, ’Fall’), (3, ’Winter’)]

>>> list(enumerate(seasons, start=1))

[(1, ’Spring’), (2, ’Summer’), (3, ’Fall’), (4, ’Winter’)]

Equivalent to:

def enumerate(sequence, start=0):

n = start

for elem in sequence:

yield n, elem

n += 1

eval(expression, globals=None, locals=None)

The arguments are a string and optional globals and locals. If provided, globals must be a dictionary. If

provided, locals can be any mapping object.

The expression argument is parsed and evaluated as a Python expression (technically speaking, a condition

list) using the globals and locals dictionaries as global and local namespace. If the globals dictionary is

present and lacks ‘__builtins__’, the current globals are copied into globals before expression is parsed.

This means that expression normally has full access to the standard builtins module and restricted

environments are propagated. If the locals dictionary is omitted it defaults to the globals dictionary. If both

dictionaries are omitted, the expression is executed in the environment where eval() is called. The return

value is the result of the evaluated expression. Syntax errors are reported as exceptions. Example:

>>> x = 1

>>> eval(’x+1’)

This function can also be used to execute arbitrary code objects (such as those created by compile()). In

this case pass a code object instead of a string. If the code object has been compiled with ’exec’ as the

mode argument, eval()‘s return value will be None.

Hints: dynamic execution of statements is supported by the exec() function. The globals() and

locals() functions returns the current global and local dictionary, respectively, which may be useful to

pass around for use by eval() or exec().

See ast.literal_eval() for a function that can safely evaluate strings with expressions containing

only literals.

exec(object[, globals[, locals ]])

This function supports dynamic execution of Python code. object must be either a string or a code object. If

it is a string, the string is parsed as a suite of Python statements which is then executed (unless a syntax error

occurs).

If it is a code object, it is simply executed. In all cases, the code that’s executed is expected to

be valid as ﬁle input (see the section “File input” in the Reference Manual). Be aware that the return and

yield statements may not be used outside of function deﬁnitions even within the context of code passed

to the exec() function. The return value is None.

In all cases, if the optional parts are omitted, the code is executed in the current scope. If only globals is

provided, it must be a dictionary, which will be used for both the global and the local variables. If globals

Note that the parser only accepts the Unix-style end of line convention. If you are reading the code from a ﬁle, make sure to use newline

conversion mode to convert Windows or Mac-style newlines.

The Python Library Reference, Release 3.4.1

and locals are given, they are used for the global and local variables, respectively. If provided, locals can

be any mapping object. Remember that at module level, globals and locals are the same dictionary. If exec

gets two separate objects as globals and locals, the code will be executed as if it were embedded in a class

deﬁnition.

If the globals dictionary does not contain a value for the key __builtins__, a reference to the dictionary

of the built-in module builtins is inserted under that key. That way you can control what builtins

are available to the executed code by inserting your own __builtins__ dictionary into globals before

passing it to exec().

Note: The built-in functions globals() and locals() return the current global and local dictionary,

respectively, which may be useful to pass around for use as the second and third argument to exec().

Note: The default locals act as described for function locals() below: modiﬁcations to the default

locals dictionary should not be attempted. Pass an explicit locals dictionary if you need to see effects of the

code on locals after function exec() returns.

filter(function, iterable)

Construct an iterator from those elements of iterable for which function returns true. iterable may be either

a sequence, a container which supports iteration, or an iterator. If function is None, the identity function is

assumed, that is, all elements of iterable that are false are removed.

Note that filter(function, iterable) is equivalent to the generator expression (item for

item in iterable if function(item)) if function is not None and (item for item in

iterable if item) if function is None.

See itertools.filterfalse() for the complementary function that returns elements of iterable for

which function returns false.

float([x ])

Convert a string or a number to ﬂoating point.

If the argument is a string, it should contain a decimal number, optionally preceded by a sign, and option-

ally embedded in whitespace. The optional sign may be ’+’ or ’-’; a ’+’ sign has no effect on the value

produced. The argument may also be a string representing a NaN (not-a-number), or a positive or nega-

tive inﬁnity. More precisely, the input must conform to the following grammar after leading and trailing

whitespace characters are removed:

sign ::= “+” | “-“

infinity ::= “Infinity” | “inf”

nan ::= “nan”

numeric_value ::= floatnumber | infinity | nan

numeric_string ::= [sign] numeric_value

Here floatnumber is the form of a Python ﬂoating-point literal, described in ﬂoating. Case is not sig-

niﬁcant, so, for example, “inf”, “Inf”, “INFINITY” and “iNfINity” are all acceptable spellings for positive

inﬁnity.

Otherwise, if the argument is an integer or a ﬂoating point number, a ﬂoating point number with the same

value (within Python’s ﬂoating point precision) is returned. If the argument is outside the range of a Python

ﬂoat, an OverflowError will be raised.

For a general Python object x, float(x) delegates to x.__float__().

If no argument is given, 0.0 is returned.

Examples:

>>> float(’+1.23’)

1.23

>>> float(’ -12345\n’)
