<p><strong>Source code:</strong> <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/python/cpython/tree/2.7/Lib/types.py">Lib/types.py</a></p>
<hr class="docutils" />
<p>This module defines names for some object types that are used by the standard
Python interpreter, but not for the types defined by various extension modules.
Also, it does not include some of the types that arise during processing such as
the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">listiterator</span></code> type. It is safe to use <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">from</span> <span class="pre">types</span> <span class="pre">import</span> <span class="pre">*</span></code> — the
module does not export any names besides the ones listed here. New names
exported by future versions of this module will all end in <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Type</span></code>.</p>
<p>Typical use is for functions that do different things depending on their
argument types, like the following:</p>
<div class="highlight-default notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="kn">from</span> <span class="nn">types</span> <span class="k">import</span> <span class="o">*</span>
<span class="k">def</span> <span class="nf">delete</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">mylist</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">item</span><span class="p">):</span>
<span class="k">if</span> <span class="nb">type</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">item</span><span class="p">)</span> <span class="ow">is</span> <span class="n">IntType</span><span class="p">:</span>
<span class="k">del</span> <span class="n">mylist</span><span class="p">[</span><span class="n">item</span><span class="p">]</span>
<span class="k">else</span><span class="p">:</span>
<span class="n">mylist</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">remove</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">item</span><span class="p">)</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>Starting in Python 2.2, built-in factory functions such as <a class="reference internal" href="functions.html#int" title="int"><code class="xref py py-func docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">int()</span></code></a> and
<a class="reference internal" href="functions.html#str" title="str"><code class="xref py py-func docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">str()</span></code></a> are also names for the corresponding types. This is now the
preferred way to access the type instead of using the <a class="reference internal" href="#module-types" title="types: Names for built-in types."><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">types</span></code></a> module.
Accordingly, the example above should be written as follows:</p>
<div class="highlight-default notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="k">def</span> <span class="nf">delete</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">mylist</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">item</span><span class="p">):</span>
<span class="k">if</span> <span class="nb">isinstance</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">item</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="nb">int</span><span class="p">):</span>
<span class="k">del</span> <span class="n">mylist</span><span class="p">[</span><span class="n">item</span><span class="p">]</span>
<span class="k">else</span><span class="p">:</span>
<span class="n">mylist</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">remove</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">item</span><span class="p">)</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
