Builtin Functions
Python core library provides some builtin functions for the most trivial actions.
The following list of tutorials cover all the builtin functions in Python programming language.

- bytes()This method creates and returns a bytes object of specific size, or with the contents of specified string object and encoding. The tutorial contains syntax, and examples for bytes() function.
- callable()This method returns True if given object is callable, or False otherwise. The tutorial contains syntax, and examples for callable() function.

- delattr()This method deletes the specified attribute in the given object.
- dict()This method is used to create a dictionary (set of key-value pairs).
- dir()This method returns a list of all the properties and methods of the given Python object.
- divmod()This method takes two numbers as arguments, and returns the quotient and remainder as a pair.
- enumerate()This method takes an iterable (sequence) and returns an enumerate object.
- eval()This method takes an expression (string), parses it into Python code, and evaluates it.
- exec()This method takes Python code (as string or code object), parses it, and executes.
- filter()This method can filter or remove items from given iterable object based on the specified condition. The syntax, and examples for filter() function are given in this tutorial.
- float()This method can take a string or a number, and convert it into floating point number.
- format()
- frozenset()
- getattr()
- globals()
- hasattr()
- hash()
- help()
- hex()This method returns the hexadecimal representation of the given integer.
- id() This method returns the id value of given object.
- input()This function is used to read input entered by user via standard input device.
- int()This method is used to create an integer from a string, or another number, with an optional base value.
- isinstance()
- issubclass()
- iter() This function is used to get an iterator object for given iterable.
- len()This method returns the length of given object. Syntax, and examples are given in this tutorial.
- list()This method returns a list created from the items of the given iterable.
- locals()
- map()This method takes an iterator and a function, and returns a map with the elements from iterator and the result of the function applied to each element. Syntax, and examples are given in this tutorial.
- max()This method takes two or more elements, or an iterable as argument(s), and returns the element with maximum value. Syntax, and examples are given in this tutorial.
- memoryview()
- min()This method takes two or more elements, or an iterable as argument(s), and returns the element with minimum value. Syntax, and examples are given in this tutorial.
- next()
- object()
- oct()This function is used to convert an integer to an octal string prefixed with
0o. - open()
- ord()This method returns the Unicode point of the given character.
- pow()This method takes base and exponent as arguments, and returns the power: base raised to the exponent. Syntax, and examples are given in this tutorial.
- property()
- range()This method is used to generate a range or sequence of numbers with the defined start, end, and difference between the elements. Syntax, and examples are given in this tutorial.
- repr()
- reversed()This method reverses the order of elements in the given sequence.
- round()This method returns the given number rounded to the specified number of decimal points.
- set()This method is used to create a Set from the items of the given iterable.
- setattr()
- slice() This function is used to find the slice of a given iterable like list, tuple, string, etc.
- sorted()This method takes a collection or iterator as argument, and return a list with the items sorted. Syntax, and examples are given in this tutorial.
- str()This method creates a String from the given argument. Syntax, and examples are given in this tutorial.
- sum()This method returns the sum of the items in the given iterable.
- super()
- tuple()This method creates a tuple with the items from the given iterable.
- type()This method takes an object as argument, and returns the type of the given object. Syntax, and examples are given in this tutorial.
- vars()
- zip()This method is used to iterate over multiple iterators parallelly. The iterator produces tuples with items from the individual iterators.
