Almost true; not all builtin functions are descriptors though.
.>> import new
.>> f= new.instancemethod(divmod, 7, object)
.>> map(f, range(1,10,2))
[(7, 0), (2, 1), (1, 2), (1, 0), (0, 7)]
.>> f= divmod.__get__(7)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#16>", line 1, in -toplevel-
f= divmod.__get__(7)
AttributeError: 'builtin_function_or_method' object has no attribute
'__get__'
I didn't run an extensive test, but it's possible that all builtin
functions are not descriptors.
