A module written in C or C++, using Python's C API to interact with the core and
with user code.
+ finder
+ An object that tries to find the :term:`loader` for a module. It must
+ implement a method named :meth:`find_module`. See :pep:`302` for
+ details.
+
floor division
Mathematical division discarding any remainder. The floor division
operator is ``//``. For example, the expression ``11//4`` evaluates to
role in places where a constant hash value is needed, for example as a key
in a dictionary.
+ importer
+ An object that both finds and loads a module; both a
+ :term:`finder` and :term:`loader` object.
+
interactive
Python has an interactive interpreter which means you can enter
statements and expressions at the interpreter prompt, immediately
clause is optional. If omitted, all elements in ``range(256)`` are
processed.
+ loader
+ An object that loads a module. It must define a method named
+ :meth:`load_module`. A loader is typically returned by a
+ :term:`finder`. See :pep:`302` for details.
+
mapping
A container object (such as :class:`dict`) which supports arbitrary key
lookups using the special method :meth:`__getitem__`.
