\section{Built-in Types \label{types}}
The following sections describe the standard types that are built into
the interpreter. Historically, Python's built-in types have differed
from user-defined types because it was not possible to use the built-in
types as the basis for object-oriented inheritance. With the 2.2
release this situation has started to change, although the intended
unification of user-defined and built-in types is as yet far from
complete.

\note{Historically (until release 2.2), Python's built-in types have

This limitation does not exist any longer.}
The principal built-in types are numerics, sequences, mappings, files
classes, instances and exceptions.
