\section{Built-in Module \sectcode{operator}} % If implemented in C
\bimodindex{spam}
The \code{operator} module exports a set of functions implemented in C
corresponding to the intrinsic operators of Python. For example,
{}\code{operator.add(x, y)} is equivalent to the expression x+y. The
function names are those used for special class methods; variants without
leading and trailing '\_\_' are also provided for convenience.
The \code{operator} module defines the following functions:

Example: Build a dictionary that maps the ordinals from 0 to 256 to their
character equivalents.
\bcode\begin{verbatim}
>>> import operator
>>> d = {}
>>> keys = range(256)
>>> vals = map(chr, keys)
>>> map(operator.setitem, [d]*len(keys), keys, vals)
\end{verbatim}\ecode
