28.3. "__builtin__" --- Built-in objects
****************************************

This module provides direct access to all 'built-in' identifiers of
Python; for example, "__builtin__.open" is the full name for the
built-in function "open()".  See Fungsi Bawaan and Konstanta Bawaan
for documentation.

This module is not normally accessed explicitly by most applications,
but can be useful in modules that provide objects with the same name
as a built-in value, but in which the built-in of that name is also
needed.  For example, in a module that wants to implement an "open()"
function that wraps the built-in "open()", this module can be used
directly:

   import __builtin__

   def open(path):
       f = __builtin__.open(path, 'r')
       return UpperCaser(f)

   class UpperCaser:
       '''Wrapper around a file that converts output to upper-case.'''

       def __init__(self, f):
           self._f = f

       def read(self, count=-1):
           return self._f.read(count).upper()

       # ...

**CPython implementation detail:** Most modules have the name
"__builtins__" (note the "'s'") made available as part of their
globals.  The value of "__builtins__" is normally either this module
or the value of this modules's "__dict__" attribute.  Since this is an
implementation detail, it may not be used by alternate implementations
of Python.
