Standard Libraries
==================
Python standard libraries
-------------------------
The libraries below implement a subset of the corresponding
standard Python (CPython) library. They are implemented in C, not Python.
CircuitPython's long-term goal is that code written in CircuitPython
using Python standard libraries will be runnable on CPython without changes.
These libraries are not enabled on CircuitPython builds with
limited flash memory:
``binascii``, ``errno``, ``json``, ``re``.
These libraries are not currently enabled in any CircuitPython build, but may be in the future:
``ctypes``, ``platform``
.. toctree::
:maxdepth: 1
builtins.rst
heapq.rst
array.rst
binascii.rst
collections.rst
errno.rst
gc.rst
io.rst
json.rst
platform.rst
re.rst
sys.rst
ctypes.rst
select.rst
Omitted ``string`` functions
----------------------------
A few string operations are not enabled on small builds
due to limited flash memory:
``string.center()``, ``string.partition()``, ``string.splitlines()``,
``string.reversed()``.
CircuitPython/MicroPython-specific libraries
--------------------------------------------
Functionality specific to the CircuitPython/MicroPython implementations is available in
the following libraries.
