A small number of constants live in the built-in namespace. They are:
-
-.. note::
-
- :data:`None`, :data:`False`, :data:`True` and :data:`__debug__` cannot be
- reassigned (assignments to them raise :exc:`SyntaxError`), so they can be
- considered "true" constants.
-
-.. XXX False, True, None are keywords too
-
.. data:: False
The false value of the :class:`bool` type. Assignments to ``False``
Assignments to :const:`__debug__` are illegal and raise a :exc:`SyntaxError`.
See also the :keyword:`assert` statement.
+.. note::
+
+ The names :data:`None`, :data:`False`, :data:`True` and :data:`__debug__`
+ cannot be reassigned (assignments to them, even as an attribute name, raise
+ :exc:`SyntaxError`), so they can be considered "true" constants.

Constants added by the :mod:`site` module
