Inconsistency on module in IPython
IPython seems inconsistent here:
In [1]: import sys
In [2]: sys.version
Out[2]: '3.10.11 (main, May 16 2023, 00:28:57) [GCC 11.2.0]'
In [4]: type(sys)
Out[4]: module
In [5]: type(module)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
NameError Traceback (most recent call last)
Cell In[5], line 1
----> 1 type(module)
NameError: name 'module' is not defined
In [6]: type(type(sys))
Out[6]: type
How can something that is not defined be a type and have a type?
I found this after discovering that no class module
exists, although, if I import some module of mine, it automatically inherits attributes
'__builtins__',
'__cached__',
'__doc__',
'__file__',
'__loader__',
'__name__',
'__package__',
'__spec__',
What are these attributes inherited from?
